Verge claims huge news coming out 7 P.M. today. It's a partnership with a large transaction prepossessing company. They had to raise 75 million for the deal to go thru.

74 million of which went to PornHub to accept their shit token.

If you go on their subreddit, it's full of delusional rednecks.

Gives Verge holders a new nickname, vergins.

I've always hated XVG and will continue to shit on it. Make money trading off of it, sure, but you're retarded if you think this psuedo-privacy coin is worth anything.

Isn't the Bunny Token I have posted before the same idea?

Basically, people were saying that there is no point for it to exist. Why don't Pornhub just accept Bitcoin or Ethereum if they want to accept crypto?

Because Satoshi and Vitalik never paid them millions of dollars to accept it, lol.

Yeah, that's why I'm invested mostly into platform coins now. After dabbling around in shitcoins for a while, you just get tired of them.

It's funny because the ECON 104 exam I did yesterday mentioned Bitcoin in one of the questions.

They mentioned that it's too volatile. I still wouldn't consider cryptocurrency as "regular" currency.

Or newspapers are hurting for money. It's not uncommon to see ads on the front page. Still must cost a lot.

https://coinsquare.com/funding_options
They charge 2.5% to fund your account (10% if you use credit card) and another 2% to withdraw money!???

Is this a normal thing for crytocurrency? Off the bat you already lose 4.5% from the funding & withdrawal fees.
I can't imagine any stock brokerage charging fees like that to deposit and withdraw money.
Hell, most of them will actually give you back money or gift if you deposit a large amounts of funds with them.

This just seems a bit retarded. I thought crytocurrency suppose to be decentralize, no fee, no middle man, etc lol

I am NOT a conspiracy theorist, but it's not hard to notice through life (I'm 40 now) that pretty much any time there's a way for large amounts of people who weren't rich to suddenly get rich... people who are already rich step in and close that opportunity off very quickly.

Hence your fees and middle men and everything else. I've taken to referring to it as wing-clipping.

The swing on cryptocurrency tends to be much greater than 4.5%. Some of them can go up 700+% quickly. No, I am not joking.
