10 second post

I should clarify: the volatility isn't really the problem in the traditional sense (big highs and lows), it's more the near constant influence of outside events. Those things are not predictable, and they occur very frequently. Jamie Dimon sneezes and Bitcoin shoots up 20%, the Chinese Reserve Bank clears its throat and the market sheds $100 bn. I guess you could either beat it in the long run (like I try to) or have really tight stop-loss levels set at all times (like a day trader surely would).

I always appreciate any new knowledge, I love learning, so feel free to teach away!

I've been playing SteemNova, it pays better than writing on here...lol

I know the feeling. I was also looking at gaming as a way of getting Steem. Steem has a version of agar.io that runs a contest every 30 min, but I was put off when they wanted my Steem login details to participate. Legit or not, I don't give away login details to anyone!

What's Steem nova like?

It's really good. It's pretty slow paced so it's more a part time strategy game, something you need to check every couple of hours. Looked really difficult to learn at first but about 10 minutes it all makes sense.

It's perfect for me, I'm sat at the computer all day with a lot of time on my hands, so I've been playing it like a demon in between trading :-) And there are multiple daily competitions to enter as well from different people.

It uses Steem connect to link it to your Steem account (for payment) but you can use your Memo key so no security issues. Maybe the other game you mentioned has the same thing ?

It could have been. I don't know enough about the Steem platform yet. I won't just click "Accept" or whatever for anything that has the word "Steem" in it's name. So Steem connect is some some of Steem interface used by games and other apps?

Yeah, it a legit thing, for connecting apps to your Steemit account. You normally have a choice of keys to use depending on the app, using the Memo key is the safest one. Never give your main one, obviously :-)

What kind of legit app would ask for a master password? .... that for a joke!

Depends on how much you trust the application, but any of the blockchain apps need at least one of your keys or they can't pay you !
