    • Lots of research on taker fees, staking returns and interest rates, liquidity pool yields, deposit/withdrawal fees, regulation, much more. DEX included. Binance (+us), ftx (+us), kraken, coinbase, gemini, nexo, kucoin, blockchain, blockfi, paypal, robinhood, uniswap, pancakeswap, raydium, many more.
    • Decent summary of the fee side: https://www.cointracker.io/blog/2019-crypto-exchange-fee-comparison.
    • Medium-dive into bsc. Pancakeswap is a hard fork of uniswap, just like bsc hard fork of eth.
    • BitLicense for NY, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitLicense, circle gemini square coinbase robinhood.
    • https://www.ledger.com/supported-crypto-assets.
    • Remember robinhood won’t let you withdraw/transfer crypto, have to sell.
    • Uniswap is a true AMM, only providing liquidity between ERC20-compatible tokens (although there’s still WBTC of course). Raydium runs on Serum’s central order book, so can trade anything. Radium fees 0.25% (22 to liquidity pool, 3 to RAY staking).
    • Played with solflare and metamask and electrum. Remember ledger can store solana but the ledger live app won’t show it (just manage through solarflare). Metamask has native capability to sync to a cold ledger wallet, removes the export private key feature, etc.
    • Potential path: Bank USD -> (free) -> coinbase pro USD -> (free) -> USDC -> (6 day withdrawal block) -> (variable fee, dependent on network) -> non-custodial wallet.
    • Ledger Live doesn’t store your accounts/keys/etc on a central Ledger server. It’s local. You can sync access across multiple devices by exporting accounts from desktop then importing on mobile. All syncing is done via the blockchain though, not ledger, and not between devices.
    • Also mobile wallets are sketchy. Bluetooth for connection to cold. Local storage vs server sync. All around better to keep only 1 device configured, and 0 devices connected.
    • I don’t like video games but I can’t ignore the size of this market: Axie Infinity (>3b spent in-game so far), DeFi Kingdoms, in-game tokens and collectibles, very lucrative applications.
