@bitbrain, thanks for a tip. I post (currently) about trading crypto but the majority of my portfolio is in stocks. If I don't write about it - does not mean I don't do it :)
I'd be interested on hearing your opinion on the major differences between the two types of market. Do you mainly trade short-term (in which case the differences should be small) or long-term (like "hodl" strategies) crypto trades?
@bitbrain, I'd compare crypto market to a 9 year old child (nicely matches 2009). Intelligent enough to not accidentally kill itself, but still unreasonably moody at times and easily upset by bad news. In the mean time, stock market is like more like an adult person - it seems to behave in a slightly more reasonable and predictable way.
I don't trade stocks short-term yet, mainly because the platform that I use (not sure where you are from but in the UK we have tax efficient accounts called ISAs - as long as I keep my holdings there all the profits are tax free) charges a flat dealing fee which I think is really high and that has been off-putting.
Oh, I don't hate crypto, I just hate you :-) lololol (joke)
I actually love crypto, I just can't stand all the false prophets who burn feathers and wave them in the air while chanting, and then claim it's a sign from the Gods that Bitcoin is going to the moon today... all just frauds and charlatans. The whole industry is rife with them, it's such a shame.
The last time I tried that I was attacked by stray cats who stole the bones.
My local music shop has a wide variety of drums, but none of them are "oil" drums, the search continues.
After sawing my baseball bat, cricket bat and an unlucky hockey stick in half, I have yet to find one that bleeds. They must be defective. I'm still trying to find where the maid hid my rugby bat. It's been so long since I've seen it that I can't even remember what it looks like.
I remember reading the Steemit tips for noobs when I signed up. One of them was do's and don't. I remember reading the "don't get into arguments or disagree with the poster" and thinking F... THAT FOR A JOKE!
Surprisingly I actually have very few real arguments here. People tend to either go silent or back down. Probably to do with fear of downvoting.
When the platform is partly sold on freedom of speech, and decentralised and no moderators... and then everyone is afraid to speak out against anyone with higher SP because they get flagged for a difference of opinion. Bit of a joke really.

That is true.
Oh and thanks for the reminder: I'm running out of feathers...
you could always try chicken bones or small stones cast on top of an oil drum, it works just as well :-)
I mean, obviously you still need a drop of bats blood, it would be silly otherwise !

And if you want to hate me you'll have to pick a number. I hope you enjoy long queues! 😂
trust me, I think I beat you on that account, especially on here lol

I know, I find it quite sinister !

Yeah. Too many people are either bullies or chickenshits. It's BS.
