Re-posted from: I hate sucking so hard at this, but enjoy the lulz. I just lost $1k+, and you can too! from ethereum I’ve had the pleasure of participating in crypto for several years, and I’ve made plenty of mistakes, from Satoshi Dice, to buying the early ASICs, to leaving coin on Cryptsy and sending…
In last month’s post Trouble On The Horizon I mentioned that things looked grim for the NASDAQ as the volatility continued to rise relative to the number of stocks rising within the index. NASDAQ internals haven’t improved since that post, and the situation continues to deteriorate in the S&P 500 and the Dow 30. To add…
It occurs to me that I haven’t published a damn thing on blockchains since 2014. Bit of a shame as things have really taken off since then. One day I’ll have to recap the past few years in hashland; there have been some crazy ups, and downs that made my head spin and my stomach…
I’m reading no less than half a dozen books right now… Infinite Jest – Holy shit. Seriously.

Prepare for an ill conceived meditation on markets, machines and mainstream perceptions of reality. I’ve decided to do away with the process of editing, so…
Who controls the past controls the future; who controls the present controls the past. -George Orwell, 1984 Despite my failure to regularly update this blog, my latest endeavors require that I express cogent thoughts on a topic that has held my fascination for the past several years. Old visitors to this space know that I…
Despite hitting all-time-highs in April, the major US indexes are looking weak. The S&P 500 continues to find support, but note the lateral consolidation and relatively low volume. Look out below…
The apparent autoeroticism of this process does not discourage. Though a benchmark for authenticity remains nebulous at best, the thrill of purging the mind for none, a minor feat of intellectual exhibitionism, does variably produce the sweet if fleeting sense of relief. Respite from what? That strange sensation which lurks somewhere “inside,” though the origins…
