A little note about about this financial status report
- Throne
- it is fiat type and I will only add money here when I withdraw it.
- Cryptocurrencies
- I will truncate numbers to 4 decimal places.
- It may not always be up to date. You can check up to date ETH balance by clicking to it.
- No matter which coin you send from Trocador, the money will merge into Monero.
Ah let’s see where that throne.com deal goes then, that’d be neat.
But I honestly don’t mind the learnin’, I was more just soliciting for good tips for this specific use case since I figured somebody’s bound to be more clued in already 😁
I know surprising amounts about the technical side of lots of cryptocurrency projects because in another life I’ve worked on sort-of-related things, but like the idiot I am I never bought all that many of anything and haven’t “handled” them in ages.
If you really want, I can recommend MetaMask. Which is an easy, well known, trusted and local-only app. I’m using it to manage current crypto donations.
There’s also “Trust” app that supports multiple currencies but it is more complicated to me than MetaMask.
Both of these apps allows in-app crypto buy/sell.
You should’ve probably heard about Binance, Coinbase etc. that are centralized exchanges. But I don’t trust them and I think they’re against morale of crypto.
Oh Metamask does in-app onramps and offramps nowadays? Well that’s pretty handy, it was still a pretty dumb no-frills “wallet” when I last used it but it’s been a good while. I’ll give it a poke! Thank you
