Can’t imagine how you make time to write such elegant crypto analysis while engaged in your physician residency program. I bought my first BTC in 2013 and am still learning. Your work here HELPS!

Thank you very much ! I totally agree -- we all could learn more about crypto, this is an entry step into an increasingly complex space.

Thanks for the superb article! So well documented and structured. I have a question: do you know of any BlockFi or FTX equivalent that would be accessible in Canada?

Thanks so much for the kind words :) Voyager Digital should be available in Canada with an interest product and I've heard great things.

Superb article as always. I feel like a fanboy having to comment on every article but, as I’ve said before, they are so well written they make complicated topics easily digestible and accessible for people who may not be as well versed in the area. Am also long BTC, Eth and Sol. Unfortunately, I bought sol on Revolut which, for now, does not support staking and does not allow you transfer your coins. I know. Have you looked into Ohm and the Olympus DAO? My first foray into staking. Again, you can see your interest or earned coins accumulate in real time which, as you said, is very satisfying!

Huge bummer about Revolut -- hopefully they launch this product soon. I'm in the same boat with the majority on Robinhood, which is unfortunate but I should be in the early wave for the crypto wallet product. Once I am approved I'll be moving the crypto to FTX and BlockFi.

Really appreciate you commenting, I really appreciate you being a champion of mine.

Ya. Haven’t heard anything about Revolut even thinking about this but, as it’s deffo gonna be what the people want, they will probably have to go stay relevant. I am long Voyager from a while back so hoping for a US listing. I’ve been in the hole with it pretty much since the day I bought it but it has been on a bit of a run over the last 2 weeks or so. Fingers crossed. Gonna look at staking my LINK. Think I can do that on Kraken. Looking forward to the next article. WGMI!

I created an account at ftx.us website and it turns out that the "FTX US" account is different from the "FTX" app account. The "FTX" app doesn't work with an "FTX US" account. There is a separate "FTX US Pro" app that works with the "FTX US" account. But most importantly, it's unclear whether the "FTX US" account pays interest like the "FTX" app account. If you're creating an account to earn interest then you may need to use the "FTX" app. It was confusing and it's still unclear to me.

Hey Kevin, it should just be the FTX app (formerly Blockfolio) on the App Store, not FTX.US
