ETH has outperformed BTC since inception Make of that what you will

pwinne

Yah - my best friend spent 5BTC in CS2 skins

nugymmer

Well positioned, yes, I'd agree. But there are competitors out there...and some of them might come out of the woodwork... You never know. With BTC, you know it's here to stay. You know that it's going to replace gold. You know that. The institutions know that too.

nugymmer

Only buy BTC if you don't like being poor.

nugymmer

Alt szn...I read that as alt snoozing. Sounds like I'm right. Alts are snoozing. Some of them will die in their sleep. Imagine that. BTC maxis are gaining ground here bud. They're not going away. I'd tell you why, but I don't think I really need to. Just let the market action do all the talking.

No_Leather_3676

BTC will consistently take less and less of the market each cycle now. Its only value is its speculative aspect with less and less usage against other crypto and is much less developed to counter quantum attacks. Its progress is halted and that’s that. XRP, ETH and possible projects like PolkaDot or Solana will make much greater gains over the next ten years, with less chance of bankrupting you. The big whales have already dumped BTC and there’s no guarantee that’s what they’ll come back to, especially when it costs exponentially more and more to pump it.

nugymmer

High risk, low reward IMHO. I don't know how people ever bother with this crap. I sure won't be. BTC from here on it. This is how people become BTC maxis. They get screwed over too many times. Like I did. Won't happen again.

nugymmer

1% for alts. 9% for BTC. 90% traditional assets. Don't be an ass.

nugymmer

That's true. But ETH has NOT outclassed BTC this cycle. BTC fucking shit all over ETH this cycle and none can deny it.

Fit-Poet6736

1 BTC richer

nugymmer

What a bunch of fucking bullshit. BTC has outclassed ETH by a fucking mile for the last cycle. Why did ETH stall? Use the brain.

nugymmer

Yep. This cycle was a genuine "no shit Sherlock" situation for me. I almost wanted to seriously punch myself in the head for being such a dumbass and not buying BTC instead of all the crap that I bought that, mind you, I sold for minimal profits, and then ended up buying back in on one token, and I was up over 66% on that one. But God bless my greedy ass...guess what? I'm now underwater on that one. I won't be selling anything though, I'll just sit there and watch it chip away to nothing. It's what I deserve for being such a greedy dumbass. But I will do something right - I'll be getting BTC when it bottoms out, and it will. Not before I've gone insane from sitting there watching my one-token portfolio get turned into liquefied shit.

DryMyBottom

BTC looks fine today too

Quirky-Reveal-1669

I’d be happy if I have 1 BTC more today than yesterday.

Hazys

I feel those early BTC holders bought 1 bitcoin merely just few hundred by it reaching 100k or so obviously some of them sell off some.

Sharks4Life34_43

Exactly. Looking back at this last cycle, I’d have WAY more money right now if I’d have bought only BTC, and lost nothing, but I bought many shitcoins and lost on other alts also, chasing bigger gains. Definitely using a different strategy once we bottom out

watch-nerd

I was already in the seven figure club when BTC was $2K.

xesionprince

This is great! I have a mortgage and not enough BTC yet! But this is the play!

Ruzhyo04

It does, if you zoom out enough. 1 BTC was worth 2000 ETH during the ICO. Now one BTC is only worth 30 ETH.

djnashtynash

Those alts were near ATH as BTC was at its ATH - but if BTC goes back to ATH you’ll be only up 35% from today’s price (still a loss for you), whereas if alts rebound back to where you bought then you’re back to even (100% increase from here). That said, only buy alts that you believe in their utility. If BTC goes back to new ATH then alts could also follow with an even bigger rally and you could 2-5x your original investment whereas BTC will take YEARS to do that.

Any-Shower-3088

I really do, just comparing apples to bitcoin doesnt really do it for me. Youve said apples are perishable and then have given up? Im not anti bitcoin just want people to actually give me good ppints abput it instead of just apples rot. I thought more bitcoin were being produced until 2035 or something? So its not fixed till then right? You didnt even reply to my last one ypu just gave me a reply to someone else. Im genuinely curious and wpuod love to have poeple tell me the good points. So you say btc is unique because its anti inflati9n, yes that is something we all want ro escape so thats good. Does bitcoin have any use case compared to the assets that degrade etc. Do you just use BTC to store wealth or do you actaully have a use case for it? You actually buy things with it? Please mention what will drive demand for BTC is it just hopes to make interest on the investment? Or dp you think the blockchain nfts will actually have any future? Despite your assumtpions im very keen to learn, im just critical.

stheodore1974

You're 8-10 years too late unfortunately, at least for monumental growth. However, depending on your age there will be a ton of upward trajectory in the next 10+ years with BTC so it's never actually too late. Just start DCA'ing in and treat it like a regular investment as you would funding a 401k. This is the way!

panthera_N

almost 2 years ago I was so excited when BTC went to 53k (from 15.9k), now we are cursing because it is at 91k

Yodel_And_Hodl_Mode

Do it. But make sure you're serious about thinking long term. I've seen too many people lose their Bitcoin by trying to time the market. They sell, thinking they're taking profits. But then they buy back in when the price goes up and they end up with less Bitcoin than if they'd just held. Also, learn how to do self custody right. The good news is, it's not hard. I wrote this to help somebody else. Hopefully it'll help you too: **Self Custody Made Simple** If you follow these instructions, you'll have better security than most Bitcoiners. Your Bitcoin will be secure. And if anything goes wrong, you'll know how to recover it. Five easy steps 1: Buy a hardware wallet direct from the manufacturer. Not sure which to get? You can't go wrong with a Trezor. Trezors are fully open source and they're the easiest to start with. 2: Let the hardware wallet generate a random seed phrase for you. The words represent numbers (entropy) that generate your keys. Your keys basically are your Bitcoin wallet. 3: Write your seed phrase on paper. This is the backup of your wallet. Never type the words on your computer or phone, no matter what. Make a metal backup, in case the paper gets damaged. 4: Store the paper and metal backups of your seed phrase somewhere only you have access to. Anyone who finds your seed phrase can use it to restore your wallet, so store it somewhere safe. A thief can't use it to rob you if the thief can't find it. 5: Before sending Bitcoin to a new wallet, save a copy of the wallet's first address on your computer or phone. Then wipe out the wallet and restore it using the seed phrase you wrote down. If you got the same first address, you proved you know how to restore your wallet if anything goes wrong. If you didn't get the same first address, start over from scratch because you did something wrong. And on that note, think about how great it is to find out you made a mistake before using the wallet instead of after. That's the benefit of testing your wallet by wiping it out and restoring it. When you buy Bitcoin on an exchange, like Coinbase, you'll let it sit there until you've bought enough to make it worth sending to your hardware wallet for long term cold storage. I aim for 0.02 BTC. PS: Don't tell anyone you own Bitcoin. Keeping it secret helps keep it safe. Hodl!

nugymmer

Why bother when most of the easy and stress-free money was made with BTC anyway? I mean, you had to stress less, all you had to do was buy BTC. It was easy. Had I done that instead of going into these shitty projects I'd be far ahead. Light years ahead. Stop looking at other projects and start studying BTC. It's much easier, and probably even more profitable.

Aggressive_Spell2314

I'm up 245% with my BTC. Very happy, sitting back and enjoying this volatility. You do you. Good luck gambling with sh\*tcoins.

CRPTM_ONE

Crypto Tax Crash Course (USA) — Easy & Clear Here’s the quick version of how crypto taxes actually work in the U.S.: 1. Selling or swapping = taxable. Anything that counts as disposing of crypto triggers taxes. Even swapping BTC → ETH is treated like selling BTC. These all go on Form 8949 as gains/losses. 2. Income-style crypto gets taxed the moment you receive it. If you’re earning tokens through things like: • Staking • Mining • Airdrops • Referral bonuses • Play-to-earn • Yield farming / liquidity rewards The IRS taxes them at their fair value the second they hit your wallet. Then when you eventually sell them? That’s a second taxable event. 3. Moving crypto between your own wallets is NOT taxable. Just make sure you mark it as a self-transfer so your tax software doesn’t treat it as a sale. 4. NFT taxes are basically the same as crypto. • Buying an NFT with ETH/SOL = taxable, because you’re “spending” crypto. • Buying with USD/stablecoins = not taxable. • Selling an NFT = capital gain/loss. • Minting is usually not taxable unless you immediately receive something with clear value. • Royalties = ordinary income. 5. DeFi taxes can get messy. Here's the simple version: • Swaps on DEXes = trades → taxable. • Providing liquidity (when you get an LP token) = considered a trade → taxable. • Removing liquidity = also a trade → taxable. • Rewards from pools/staking/nodes = income at FMV the day you get them. • Bridging is usually non-taxable unless the bridge gives you a new wrapped token. 6. Cost basis is everything. Your cost basis is what you originally paid for each asset. If you lose track of it, the IRS may treat your basis as $0 — which means they think all of it is profit. That can lead to a huge tax bill. 7. Please use a tax tool. A proper crypto tax tool will: • Auto-sync exchanges + wallets • Track cost basis correctly • Identify self-transfers • Handle DeFi + NFTs • Generate Form 8949 and full reports It saves you hours of cleanup — even if you only trade occasionally. Crypto is fun when you’re trading. It’s only stressful when tax time comes and nothing is tracked. Tax season isn’t the enemy. Bad records are. Hope this helps someone. Happy filing.

>My source is their own ledger: They unlock1b tokens a …….. No, I meant what is your source that what is relocked is what people won’t buy, where is your source for that claim? That what is relocked is ‘what nobody will buy’? It’s BS >You’re buying from a whale who pre mined 80% of the total tokens. If you don’t see my point you never will. Ripple did not premine XRP, XRP was minted nearly 2 years before Chris Larsen came around and started up Ripple Labs. Ripple has never distributed XRP, I have never bought a coin from Ripple, neither have you, Ripple does not sell to you or I, they do not sell to retail. >It’s decentralized but they can move 50m coins OTC?? Have no price action on the ledger and it doesn’t exist. If it wasn’t decentralized they would need permission to move 50m coins, but since it is a decentralized network and there is no central authority over the network and XRP, yes anyone can move coins OTC, but the coins exist, but no price action exists because that movement was never on an orderbook, never on an exchange, I could send you 1 million coins to your wallet, it wouldn’t affect price. >Do you even hear yourself. Like cmon bro. You’re protecting a whale of a company for no reason Protect them from what? Why would I be against Ripple? They were gifted their XRP in exchange for a commitment to develop and foster growth on the XRPL, Ripple didn’t sell XRP to fund it’s startup, they had angel investors and venture capital investment rounds, Google invested in Ripple’s startup, so did Andreessen-Horowitz, and many other very smart money people, if they bet big on Ripple do you think I am not going to notice and follow their lead?? Or I should listen to you tell me I am protecting a whale. Come on man….. don’t YOU see? >while I get freshly minted BTC from clean energy. Unless you are mining yourself with 100% renewable free energy and have minted a single coin for yourself, this is not reality, the closest you could ever get to this fantasy of yours is if the coins you had were minted in Georgia where the whole country’s electrical grid is hydro. >You’re better off mining BTC than buying XRP. But you’ll never see it that way. I first mined BTC nearly 13 years ago, I have seen much, BTC used to be like the change in your car’s center console, I now hold zero BTC, BCH yes and still buy, but no more BTC for me. >Pre mined coins minted from thin air, that you’re buying at 20000000% increase from a company lol. That’s what you choose. I am not buying XRP from Ripple, again they don’t sell to retail and Ripple does not set the price, the market does. >When I buy BTC, I buy from miners, who used energy to get rewarded. No, you are buying sats that were mined and sold to an exchange >My money is being dispersed amongst millions of node validators. No, your money is going to the exchanges >And I also hold ETH, the ETH foundation 100% tells you when, how much, and who is buying the ETH. Hard stop right there. The naivety of complaining about pre-mined when you support a coin that came from an ICO, a coin whose value came from an initial release, a foundation that was funded by bad actors on the world stage, that’s some fraud right there. Go and support the Ethereum Foundation, I don’t, why would I support the chain whose very beginning has deep close ties to foreign adversaries of the USA, why would I support the Ethereum Foundation whose leader flew to North Korea and met with their leaders to help them bypass US sanctions by using ETH, and when he flew back and touched American soil he was charged, he was convicted in court and he was sent to prison, why would I support that? Why would I support an ICO dreamed up by Steven Nerayoff? @TheBoringSleuth has uncovered onchain exactly who and what was behind Ethereum’s first wallets, no thanks. >Also did you notice that they didn’t drop $2b worth of liquidity onto the market during 1 month? All year the foundation has maybe sold ETH for $100m Ok, and why would they? Ethereum is not a chain used for remittance and ETH is not a bridge currency, it would make zero sense for them to do that, but what you don’t understand obviously is why a remittance chain and it’s native bridge currency would do that, you do not understand the deep pools of liquidity needed for a remittance chain. >Ripple sells 200k+ coins a month valued at $2 each. Forcing $2b of liquidity onto bag holders when they unlock 1b XRP a month. Onto bagholders? Do you even understand what 200k coins represents on the daily volume chart for XRP? Dude, you don’t, because if you did you’d scratch your head wondering why you thought it was ‘so much’ liquidity ‘dumped’, it’s not, plain and simple, and that 200k is nothing compared to the daily volume even if the monthly escrow release hits the market all on the same day, BUT IT DOESN’T…… because Ripple does not sell to retail, Ripple does not programmatically sell to exchanges, the onchain numbers don’t lie, your assumptions are regurgitated words you don’t understand because if you did you would see through them. Respectfully, your arguments are moot, understand the framework and it will make sense to you why what you are saying is foolhardy. >Ripple is scummy for not disclosing any transaction compared to other foundations. My dude, they release a quarterly XRP report with all these numbers, they have been doing this going on 8 years. You don’t know what you don’t know.

ourcryptotalk

Hell yes, I knew we'd reach a $200,000 BTC. Wait... what?

maxintos

Lol the guy is just an entertainer that gives opinion on everything from gold and BTC to Nvidia and Walmart. There is no conspiracy here. He's just not good at calling tops and bottoms because he's not an expert on any of the markets he talks about.

GameMusic

BTC is facing stiff resistance at \~$91,750 right now, but it feels like we’re on the verge of breaking it. What literally nobody in the mainstream is talking about yet (not even most Fed watchers have caught onis that the Federal Reserve has quietly started expanding its balance sheet again. They began injecting fresh liquidity into the system a couple weeks ago (reverse repo usage dropping fast + TGA drawdowns). This isn’t the “QT is over” announcement everyone’s waiting for, but it’s de-facto QE lite. More dollars chasing assets = classic setup for the next leg up in risk assets, especially Bitcoin. The market hasn’t priced this shift in at all yet. What OP posted

Legitimate_Cry_5194

If you want wealth/growth ETH is a better investment than BTC. Are you a stand up comedian or something 🤣

Legitimate_Cry_5194

Just don't listen to this guy👆. ETH/BTC chart tells you all you need to know.

United_Bee6739

Honestly, if you can time the bottom and top, can be a good risky bet. But BTC $69k in 2021 to now 91k 2025 with all the volatility, sounds like a terrible investment to me. There are dozens of tech stocks that have performed far better with a lot more stability.

RoutinePrice446

>A simple guy from the block won't be holding 10,000 bitcoins for 10 years without even selling 1 bitcoin cause he will need at least some of the money for life expanses . those wallets... I think there may be some confusion between wallets and addresses. A dormant address with 10000 BTC may wake up and move the whole stack, but who's to say that entity didn't have another 5 addresses with similar amounts that they've been selling off over the years?

Yoyoma1955

As in USB, physical printout? Wouldn’t that defeat the fundamental purpose of BTC?

IsItSafe2Speak

Getting rich off BTC is over.

BTBL1

BTC is confused right now. Everything comes down to the US market session if SPX wants to break through the resistance, it’s safe to assume the bottom is in.

tsudonimh

At some point, it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. People start to associate Cramer's anti-BTC takes with the bottom and start to buy. Price rebounds. More people notice the correlation. Next time he says the same cretinous shit, more people associate it with the bottom, and buy. Rinse and repeat. It gets to the point where him saying it results in the bounce.

NeedMyMac

To be fair- if I had BTC and could store iron a floppy I would. Put it in one of those boxes with a few hundred at a specific spot.

No_South_9912

I'm holding my ALTs for now, even though they are down relative to BTC.

nitroacid411

Here's some data on why I believe this is possible and support this based upon the past week. *** Current News (1 to 7 days) *** - 3.2 trillion market cryptocurrency cap exceeded - $90,000 k Bitcoin - Gold (perspective) - $3,000 k ETH - Silver (perspective) China/USA trade tariff deal Russia/Ukraine war peace deal Artificial Intelligence AI: - Nvidia down $195 -> $170 20th-25th November - Remember Deep Seek fears from China competitor - Nvidia challenged by Google Gemini buyers from Meta data centers - Big 7 AI are opening up more companies and this will not continue to be the only 7 in this stock market Federal rate cut: December 10th: - November rate cut no effect on cryptocurrency - USA bonds backing BTC - Cheat Sheet in 11/26 (Greater > 6.5 trillion is the number) - Jobs - Cartels were liquidated last week and during the month of November - Drop 30% - China #3 worldwide miners of cryptocurrency - China eyeing opening the ban since 2021 - Russia open for cryptocurrency - Russia sold bags to pay bills - can't pay soldiers Public moves: - Andrew Tate liquidated 700k+ - Baron Trump longs opened 50m+ - Garrett Jin longs opened 200m+ Imagine the people NOT showing their cards in poker? How many of these people are you or connected to your investments? - Michael Saylor holding even at a close 74k topple and explains the 12 year cycle not 4 year - Tommy Lee holding ETH on the dump - Robert Kiyosaki is not a crypto investor - A real estate mogul yes, not crypto, he sold - JPMorgan Chase - Bitcoin bond What have you seen in the past 1 to 7 days. Ask yourself? Ask your team? Time to invest or sellout? Watch those %'s and gains or loses. It's showing a lot of data.

Gotglo

I have a feeling that 2024 was just a muted alt season and 2025 is actually our bear market year. If you go to the 1 year charts on all coins including bitcoin everything is down especially altcoins down 50-70% over the last year. I mean BTC is only 4% down from where it was last year which shows that it is indeed maturing and if you look at the volatility index, it is getting less volatile. This is why the market felt different after BTC reached ATH before halving which never happened. Everyone saying recession and big crash next year but the charts and macro dont lie. And remember that the market makers also know the same playbook that everyone is waiting for… a parabolic move for BTC and altseason it was never going to be easy. This cycle has been purposely suppressed because the ones who control it knew we didnt have the liquidity to support the blueprint we had like other cycles so it was manipulated heavily to manufacture a quicker bear market. Imho the next bull starts once the money printers come back on Q1 or Q2 next year.

VariatCA

And about 7 weeks ago, Bitcoin was absolutely making a mockery of the stock market as BTC was up +35% YTD compared to the S&P's +15%, and BTC was up +65% from the April lows compared to the S&P's +35%. Welcome to the ebb & flow of crypto. Don't sweat the short-term.

Ok-Section-2200

I hope you already bought a cold wallet and transferred your BTC and forget about it. Never keep your bitcoins on exchanges. As you buy more over the years, split them into a few cold wallets like how you'd split your cash into different bank accounts.

Ladlow

Don’t try to time the market. DCA in on assets you have conviction on. Most everything just follows BTC if you look at the charts. I’m hopeful we’ll have a year end pump but no one knows. Cold wallets is the only way you truly own the asset. On an exchange you are a creditor to the exchange. Buckle up. This space is very volatile.

Qowudyeibflsla

BTC sneeze. Alt bleed

nugymmer

Again, the downvote tells me that I'm right. Why does BTC keep making new all time highs? Hahaha, keep believing that your alt bags are going to keep exploding up in value. Maybe they will. But I know which one is going to keep going up. And I'll be buying it. And nothing else. From here on in.

nugymmer

This is a simple "use the brain" type of question. BTC has stood the test of time. ETH has not.

nugymmer

How cute. They bought the dip and now want to taste the crackers. How suh-weet. Nah, they're talking shit again. BTC about to drop another $10k. Watch out below.

Ikeelu

Same. I don't even know why I sub anymore. It's the same meme's rinsed and repeated. Never any real discussion. The overused meme's start making it feel like a scam. BTC isn't a scam, but fuck I can see why some people think that with the way people post about it when they haven't actually researched it.

nugymmer

But if BTC replaces gold, where does the value proposition for DeFi come into it? DeFi has a place, but replacing gold certainly has a virtue that none else can hold. Other than gold, that is. Don't waste your time. Stick with BTC. And be done with it.

shredyeti

In five years you won’t care if you bought at $120k or $90k, because BTC will be $1m or more

VariatCA

Guaranteed he's measuring from just the lows, as if BTC/Crypto isn't known for both bigger moves to the upside and to the downside.

VariatCA

Of course after a +5% day for BTC, you only come around the next day after a -0.5% drop to complain

Baggs85

BTC going up is good for him. BTC going up is good for me. Aligned.

Live-Distribution995

Good luck, brother. I think if all countries buy BTC and more young, new millionaires invest in it, we could surpass a million in BTC in 10 years. Ten years ago, nobody would have imagined that BTC would reach 125k by 2025

Legitimate_Cry_5194

Your epiphany is bullshit. The reason some people don't invest in BTC is that a lot of people don't even have money to invest in the first place. A second reason is that there are thousands of different investments someone can make aside from BTC (and crypto).

ExcitingGovernment72

ETH and BTC are considered more stable to buy, suitable for both short-term and long-term investments.

Live-Distribution995

Well, 2-3 months ago ZEC was at $34 and went up to $750... BTC is the safest bet... the rest is a gamble...

wpkzz666

Well, if you take this year return on BTC, it would be negative, from thanksgiving '24 to thanksgiving '25. So, yeah, not a risk but more like a bad investment, if all you want is to "be rich as fuck" this is not the way. On the other way, if you're either convinced that it is a good project or that it can be used to gamble, then, well, try it.

MeanRepresentative24

I mean, floppy disks were obsolete way before the BTC paper was dropped. But a lot of computer viruses will fit on a floppy disk just as easily as a seed.

LicensedTwoPill

401jK is literally all about the attitude you are discussing. If you want actual gains, I would check them out. BTC isn’t going to get you “rich” at this point. 10+ years ago, sure

Any-Dragonfruit8363

You ain't getting rich with BTC bro. You should have done that 10 years ago hahahahahaha.

Leynnox

BTC is not a 3 years investment. You want quick bucks, you buy stocks, you want to get rich in 10 to 20 years, you buy BTC.

Blaspheman

Nope. BTC is the king. The one and only.

aaaaaaaarrrrrgh

No, that's kinda the opposite of what he said. He said take 100 BTC, leverage-bet on *rising* prices (you now have 0 BTC because you got liquidated), then announce that the remaining coins will be verifiably destroyed, increasing the value of all remaining coins. The leveraged short is a lot more sensible.

Leynnox

Check the market cap for gold, check the market cap for BTC, then check the news about countries building a BTC reserve, now open your calculator and apply gold mcap to BTC.

omg_its_dan

Highly doubtful, but you will still be in a great position. You don’t need 1 BTC. The vast majority of people will never own even close to this amount due to bitcoin’s finite supply.

godofleet

Its not so complicated or scary... 1BTC = 1BTC  Again, zoom out, a 20% drop denominated in fiat in a market that moves 100s of ℅ over the decades isn't a threat, it's just normal market activity.

PapiMak

Just crown him the patron saint of BTC already.

Supaflyray

1 single entity holding 42% of the total supply, releasing 1% of the total supply , and then relocking them up to then sell again. They’re the ultimate whale. Every month they sell their bags, that they premined. That’s not decentralized at all compared to POW or POS systems. Imagine if satoshi’s wallet woke up and started releasing 1% of the total supply of BTC every month. That’s the reality of what’s going on with XRP

carsonthecarsinogen

Highjacking this because you still refuse to answer my question. Send me something of value right now, and I’ll hypothetically pay you in whatever currency you want to match that value so that you’re not at a loss. I live 1000 miles from you, I don’t have access to standard banking for a few reasons, make sure it’s not possible to double spend this value, I also need this “thing of value” to be indestructible because I want it to last my lifetime.. I’ll wait. You said it yourself, value is subjective. The above is not and I see value in the above. In reality what i truly see value in is the inability to debase BTC and its ease of storage and protection. I would love gold but I can’t carry around bars of gold nor do I trust myself to protect a safe full of it from my potentially dangerous government. There’s also no way to verify golds supply, any nation could have massive amounts stored away off books which could in theory devalue the float.

Humphrey-B-Bear

If the amount you're investing is a meaningful enough, then spend a little more time and learn about the "why" of BTC. Too many focus on the $$. Once you understand the "why", you'll worry litte about seeing it go up and down. 100% of buyers who held for a min of 4 years are in the green. It doesn't matter when you board the train. Just get on the train, hold and go make yourself a sandwich.

ClemPFarmer

I bet he bought back in and has plenty of BTC.

Visual_Building_1666

LOTS of excellent advice in your post...WOW. I would only add that investing in a spot BTC ETF is preferable to some, and there is nothing wrong with that. Let Merrill Lynch or Fidelity or whatever investment brokerage one uses deal with safely holding the BTC...also great for Roth IRA accounts.

Lavayo

Put it on the fridge with a magnet, so I don't lose it. Why should anyone involved with BTC at its creation have used floppy discs? BTC is really not that old.

Nachtbeest23

Thank you Trumpdaddy for pumping BTC.

cjneutron

Probably chuckle to myself laughing at whoever wrote that on a floppy considering BTC wallet addresses didn't start using seeds until 2012. And to my knowledge the majority (if not all) of the potential Satoshi wallets all used the original bitcoin core wallet format. Seeds didn't come into play until they started using BIP32 & BIP39.

canadianragweed

I think everything you mentioned aside from maybe XRP has potential. And XRP may, I just don't personally trust them. RWA is no doubt going to be a thing, it's just going to take time. BTC, ETH, and LINK have been and currently are 90% of my crypto portfolio. They are not for sale. I bought XRP and SOL at the right time so I'm still up hundreds of % at current prices but, they are for sale at the right price. SOL is not ETH.

Glass_Number_1707

BTC been grinding for a few days now but be careful. May grind higher or lower. Next is wait for the fed meeting. This has been the year of disruptions. BTC needs a catalyst and if Congress ever gets off their as-es and passes the clarity act that will be a big step forward when it comes to merging into the financial systems. Right now it's a bit of wait and see. Plus stack sats. 🤑

Afraid_Arm4821

the point of buying altcoins is to gamble responsibly, not to invest. Every altcoin chart you mentioned is basically a cardiogram. That pattern exists because alts pump when liquidity is stupid and dump when reality returns. BTC looks like an upward staircase because it’s the only one institutions, governments, and polymarket traders consistently treat like a durable asset. Everything else momentum plays with expiration dates

You install some bitcoin software on an online computer, and you run the software, and it 'mines' Bitcoin for you. There are two ways to do it, you can join a pool, which is an online group of bitcoin miners, and if you do that, you will receive a tiny amount of bitcoin, vastly less than one, every so often. The other way is to mine blocks directly yourself. If you do that, you will receive basically no bitcoin, unless you get insanely lucky, and if that somehow happens, you would get 3.125 BTC, at least if you get lucky before the next halving, when that reward amount would go down by half.

If the seed code inside works I probably wouldn’t move the BTC for many a while. I’m pretty rich myself outside of crypto anyway like $10m+ type, so I’d spend a year or 2 planning what I want to do. Too many consequences from tax, being targeted by USA China Russia cia kgb ccp, entire underworld after me, will be being exposed tank the market because I’m a nobody, would I be accused of theft etc. So no I wouldn’t touch it for awhile and map things out very carefully

The coins on that wallet are considered as not accessible or lost. So they count as burned. Keeping that in mind (and for easy math) let's say he has 1M BTC on there. That would mean there will only ever be 20M BTC available. The whole MC is calculated with that in mind. If that wallet ever moves 1 coin; the whole of BTC would crash because there would suddenly be 1M of them available as "extra" supply that wasn't supposed to be available. Would BTC recover? I think so, yes. But I can't know for sure. It'll take a loooong while and I have no idea what the bottom would/could be in this case. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

So go all in a massively leveraged short position, and then move a single BTC from that wallet to an exchange?

Never get rich from BTC…might do a 2x from here in 5 years… Many large cap Alts meanwhile could easily 5x 10x from here..

If that BTC ever moves in any amount, bitcoin will take a significant hit. The assumption we all have is the creator did so in god faith and that those funds are inaccessible.

Truth_Teller3

The instant that wallet moves any BTC the market tanks lol

10% of your port for moon shot gambling alts. Crypto majors for the rest of the 90%. BTC, ETH, SOL in a 23:5:1 ratio.

Take 100 BTC for myself, long market x1000 leverage and announce massive burn 😂

Sats are the fractions of BTC. To put it another way, Sats are to bitcoin what cents are to the dollar.

I have owned BTC, but never owned gold.  I don’t understand why people “stack” gold, vs just buying equities.  BTC is actually reaching a risky point.  I have a friend who is worth…. A lot… I don’t know for sure, but he MAY be approaching the billion level. He recently sold his company for an amount he can’t disclose yet, and he had 9 figures prior to that. So I would imagine he is.  He had always been a bitcoin non believer, he actually had a running bet for 10k with another less rich friend that bitcoin would hit 0 within 10 years, which he lost. He said he’d never own one.  When BTC crossed 100k he bought 50 million worth of them…. He has no intention whatsoever of spending them, or using them as currency, just to sit there and gain value over time ideally.  How many more people are going to buy over that amount who are not obscenely wealthy?  It really NEEDS a legal use case for the everyday person, that they are actually regularly using at some point to justify price appreciation.  I’m not a BTC hater, but it’s also reaching a point that’s hard for the average person to see themselves securing a position in, and also to keep finding people to pay significantly more without real regular use case.

It’s nice, but BTC outperformed ETH so much that the yield is irrelevant. I am pro-ETH, but the price action the past few years have been pathetic. It’s time for ETH to stop with the shitcoin behavior.
