The only time true decoupling will happen is when the safe network is not part of the crypto market as we know it. Even ETH pumps and dumps with BTC, A lot of investors use crypto as a hedge against other investments to balance their portfolios, and they do it using bots, hence the rising and falling tides, other coins are directly tied to BTC in terms of you need to buy BTC before you can buy the other coin, or such procedures. Adds to the pump. When I bought MAID I first bought BTC.

Oh OK.
Nah comments are not enabled yet.
I have to play around and see what works best, and what doesnât.
Just another thing I need to do haha. Also for anyone that reads it, I am looking at ways for members (free, just sign up) to not have to see ads.

Ok so Dimitar is correct, I didnât know you ARE Crypto Fireside. Anyway, the article was fine with my enlightened context, but safe to say that the price is predictably settling back to itâs rolling averages. Silver lining was finding the recent interview with David (our venerable egg harvester, master sheep herder, prodigious tree-planter, and hiding-in-plain-sight distributed network vanguard, and internet 2.0 visionary). Just hoping looming test nets and official launch happen before longâŠ

I love nature, and this may sound strange, but I love watching trees grow. I also enjoy the deer and rabbits fighting me to get the woodlands up and running. I welcome them all.
Funny story
I planted a veg garden. Rabbits were eating some of it (not a lot), and I thought, I need to kill those rabbits.
So cutting the grass path up the back, I had to stop for a pea hen and her chicks to cross my path, then onward and a rabbit jumped out, sitting 1.5M away from me. I looked at it and it looked at me twitching its nose. Like a typical Scottish hard man I thought, if I had a gun you would be getting it. We sat longer and he was twitching his nose and looking at me and then I thought, I wonder if he is hungry, I need to go to the veg patch and dig up some lettuce for him.
So I went from thinking I would have to kill a poor wee rabbit to discovering one and thinking I should dig up my plants for him 
Things like that make me really happy, knowing when it comes to it we humans can be just decent and our fellow animals do know that, I think.
I find speaking softly to the animals around here somehow calms them and they will sit with you. Breathing out to show no threat and speaking gently seems to reassure them.
Then I watch the trees grow again.

I have the same problem, my veg patch stands no chance mostly rabbits enjoying it and the deer eat anything they donât.
Took a while to appreciate them and to see them as a privilege not a pest.
I keep trying to grow, it is much slower as all the new shoots are constantly eaten some things they like less than others though so with persistence I may eventually have new trees too. 
Definitely better with them here than without.

Genuinely nice to hear. We try to live with the nature around here too. We have hawks that circle a small clearing looking for our ducks and chickens but we often put out a couple eggs and other scraps for the ravens who discourage the hawks coming around.
Many other stories with opossum and raccoons but all just looking for scraps and never doing harm to the same ducks weâve kept safe for several years now.
We also have a half dead tree that was struck by lightning in our front yard that we keep up for the sole purpose of woodpeckers coming back every year to have their young. We dubbed it the pecker hotel 
Other folks around here seem to think they have the right to trap or kill anything that wonders onto the imaginary line that animals donât comprehend they call their property but realistically who lived in the country first? Most move to the country for the wildlife so why would I attempt to kill it all off?
Best to just have natural solutions or play defense rather than try to snuff out the wildlife.
And if I could make one ask to everyone who have mice around, donât use poison. Poison the mice and you can poison the owls and if you poison the owls you just get more mice!
