target still $3,000+ per coin. some things i've learned so far:
theta edge node
staking TFUEL through the edge node doesn't get you a ton. the minimum requirement is 10,000 TFUEL and i only got like a handful of TFUEL as staking reward. of course, my node literally updated 10 minutes ago and reset my tally.
edge cache is where the TFUEL is. it's based on location and interest, so it's not steady, but when it hits it's great. i'm not sure i'd recommend doing this without a 1gb fiber connection, but i also don't recommend living without a 1gb fiber connection. i get a couple dozen TFUEL from this.
compute is one i haven't been doing much. as i understand it, much better compute tasks are coming down the road, with video transcoding and pay for distributed computing tasks.
theta guardian node
you definitely need a better computer and internet connection for this one. saw lots of people complaining about it not working - no, your connection and pc are just shit and it cannot catch up.
takes a nontrivial amount of theta to run one of these, currently 1,000 or more staked to it. i'm only gettin a couple TFUEL a day on this, which is rather disappointing. i know there are times at which guardian nodes may vote on the release of more TFUEL, a mechanism to balance the economy, but i'm kinda feelin like this isn't worth running. still gonna, tho.
TFUEL vs THETA
TFUEL's price is basically rigged by binance, as well as the network itself. if the price of TFUEL gets too high, nodes will vote more TFUEL into existence. if TFUEL gets too cheap, people just stake it, reducing liquidity. binance hold the majority of TFUEL and they're slowly releasing it into the wild. TFUEL will maybe go to a dollar or somethin.
it takes 55 hours to unstake. so, we just saw a big bump over $4.20, over double what a bunch of people paid at $2 not long ago. a lot of people will begin the unstaking process and sell off in a couple days. makes a nice lil teeter-totter effect where, after a jump in THETA price, it'll dip back down for you to buy some more.
some might try to play THETA vs TFUEL and bounce back and forth. that could work, but you gotta be intuitive and lucky as shit.
theta.tv
this is going to end up in all samsung and sony devices. all of them. amazing time to get in on a huge future platform and get visibility and growth. it's probably gonna be the youtube AND twitch killer. i'm in the process of learning how the streaming works.
