Is there a service that lets someone pay me using PayPal or a credit card, while I receive the funds in crypto like Bitcoin or USDT? The sender wouldn’t need to deal with crypto just pay normally while I get the payment in my preferred cryptocurrency. Ideally, it should be secure, reliable, and possibly work without the need of any KYC verification. This would be useful for freelancers or anyone getting paid online but wanting to receive funds in crypto. Any trusted platforms or methods for this?

Let’s approach trading profitability from first principles.

After 10 years of live trading, I’ve been thinking deeply about how to build a logic-based, probabilistic trading model — and finally have a clear problem statement.

📌 But before jumping into solutions, I want to ask:
Does this problem statement make sense?
If we solve it, does it logically lead to a profitable edge?

🧩 The Setup: 5 Variables and 2 Rules

We are trading in any liquid market: CFDs, stocks, crypto, etc.

🎯 The 5 Variables:
• X = Entry level
• Y = Take profit level
• Z = Stop loss level
• P = Probability that price hits Y after X → P(Y | X)
• L = Probability that price hits Z after X → P(Z | X)

⸻

✅ Rule 1:

|X – Y| > |X – Z|
→ Ensures a Reward > Risk (R:R > 1)

✅ Rule 2:

P(Y | X) > P(Z | X)
→ Ensures Target is statistically more likely than Stop

⸻

🧠 The Problem Statement:

Find combinations of (X, Y, Z, P, L) that satisfy Rule 1 and Rule 2.

If both are true, the setup has positive expected value:

EV = P(Y | X) × |Y − X| − P(Z | X) × |X − Z| > 0

That’s it — clean, testable, logic-based.

Would love your thoughts.
• Does this problem definition hold up mathematically?
• Would solving this system — even partially — lead to a trading edge?

Hi y’all, left the scene for awhile (was broke), have some extra cash on hand and want to support the network again. This was about 2ish years ago. Staking back then was a pain and required a lot of command-line-fu and tinkering.

I was wondering if there were any full node options for Ethereum the way that bitcoin has Umbrel. I tried dappnode but it’s glitchy as hell and there isn’t a whole lot of support for it – I remember that there was an upgrade to docker and all of the sudden I was no longer able to restart any of the containers for my node- I used the install script to get everything going.
