Scalpers prices are not retail. I have bought around 4 3070s/3080s all for under 1000 at actual retail pricing.

There have been brokers like that for at least 15 years. Zecco was doing it back in like 2006.

You realize doge coin is still worth less than 10% of btc by marketcap? Not sure I would count on that prediction. I mean is gme going to surpass apple?

The jewelry use is 99% tied to gold's perceived valuation and is used as a way to display opulence and wealth. It is just an extension of gold being a store of value.

Gold still makes up a percentage of global reserves for all major countries.

Now apply that logic to gold.

Trump waited until 2020 to sign a bunch of fake healthcare EOs that had little chance of being implemented. What was he doing the previous 3 years on healthcare beyond trying to strip all of it away??? He only did this to distract from COVI

Obamacare has an annual out of pocket cost cap of ~$6300 on healthcare including prescriptions. Sure, that is still pretty high, but it basically saved my life. If not for Obamacare I would need to come up with over 300k per year to not get

I'm sorry, but he didn't. I thought it was a great idea, but issuing a bunch of scattershot EOs that never actually get implemented is not addressing anything. The problem is that in reality he was all sending nasty tweets and no

Because mining on the grid could impact the prices and create what is basically artificial demand for local energy production. Usage doesn't require domestic energy production. Also not all cryptos are even mined. So energy usage is pr

I can understand banning mining. The rest is just crazy though. Honestly even banning mining if you are off the grid is kinda not right though. Especially if you were only using renewables.

Why would this cause the bubble to burst? Btc doesn't require the difficulty to be this high to function. "The fact is, it's not really used much in the legal economy now. Yes, one rich person sells it to another, but that&#x

I mean most normal brokerage accounts clearly show you when you are buying on margin and exactly how much settled cash you have to trade with. This is not unreasonable, and as far as I am aware is the status quo.
324.
by pfisch 6y ago
In which case I can understand you not being able to buy, because you are buying on margin. That is not what I'm talking about though. I'm talking about 100% cash. If you are trading on margin you can get margin called. If you are

You can clearly see that the price was going to infinity because there weren't enough sellers. This absolutely ruins anyone underwriting options because they now have to immediately cover all outstanding calls at whatever the ask is. T

No, you are trying to suggest that these are all new blackjack games, not the middle of one. If you are holding 21 and they shut the game down in the middle that is illegal. HALF of robinhood users bought and were holding GME. They were hol

No, that analogy doesn't fit. Fully half of robinhood users owned GME stock. They were in the middle of a bet. RH created a situation where the stock could only go down. "I think it's like a brokerage that has to post 100% co

A casino definitely can't shut down a blackjack game in the middle. That is not true. What are you even arguing here? That the purpose of a brokerage is to take customers money and play weird games with it to maximize profits and is al

If you are operating a brokerage that can't cover when people are buying stock with all cash then you should be in breach and be forced to shut down and/or forced into bankruptcy by owing all the stockholders of the stocks in ques
