@DreamsCrypto@J_McCartherr @_CrYpToCaSh_ @colbyiam From a noob: A hard fork is change to the "rules" of the blockchain. If miners want to add to it, they have to upgrade their software to the new "rules." Hard forks creating new coins are when the old chain is still mined by some, so you have two chains and two coins.
@CryptoTipsNL@haydentiff@krakenfx Thanks for being civil! I agree that a purely negative outlook is not beneficial, but there is a lack of viable information, making it hard for a noob like myself to make informed decisions. Most of it is emotion, either "moon" or "scam," and I think logic lies between. Peace!
@CryptoTipsNL@haydentiff@krakenfx Remember: cryptocurrency is against the "too big to fail" nonsense. Locking up investments of money on this scale is a major fail. I'm not accusing Kraken of being malicious, and I feel for them, but censorship for money is wrong! THANK YOU, @haydentiff for sharing your issues!
@CryptoTipsNL@haydentiff@krakenfx Yeah, because we can only say positive things! Be positive and the price will keep rising! What does price matter if you can't access your money? I'm getting tired of everyone who has even helpful criticism being jumped on! We have a right to know about an exchange fail!
This was written two years ago and the situation still hasn't changed! Block size is still the same and everyone is still hoping that lightning network will fix things:

@lindaxie This piece by Mike Hearn (@OctSkyward) shifted my thinking. It opened up my eyes to what is "real decentralization" vs. mining consolidation. Some of the dreams of crypto in the abstract vs. how it functions in reality: https://t.co/xYyjAUtPsc
@lindaxie When your token is down 60%, don't panic sell if it has fundamentals - realize the loss. Tokens work on market cycles & it may rise again to recover losses or even profit - mindtrader (I was told this BUT became frustrated w/ continued losses vs btc so sold before massive rises)
Yesterday I did an on-chain atomic swap of 1.337 LTC for 2.4066 DCR w/ @_alyp_ of @decredproject. (See txns: https://t.co/BlxU1QBK2U) ⛓️⚛️💱🚀 https://t.co/wPqzdw40Gp
