Post is by: Bcom_Mod and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/bitcoin_com/comments/1w9e2e8/strategy_printed_209_billion_in_stock_this_year/ [Strategy's CEO Phong Le confirmed the company ranked fourth among all US equity issuers in 2026](https://news.bitcoin.com/featured/strategy-joins-spacex-google-intel-as-top-us-equity-issuers/), having sold $20.9 billion in common and preferred stock. Not fourth among crypto companies. Fourth among every public company in America. It just resumed buying after a two-month pause, picking up 4,603 BTC for $369.7 million at an average of $80,318, funded by selling $602.8 million of common stock. They sold $602.8 million of stock and used $369.7 million of it to buy Bitcoin. The company's core activity is issuing equity and converting a portion of the proceeds into BTC. Being the fourth-largest equity issuer in the country is a genuinely wild stat for what people still think of as a business-intelligence software firm. It's issuing more stock than most major banks, more than most household-name corporations, and the entire purpose of that issuance is to feed a Bitcoin accumulation engine. Strategy is, functionally, a publicly-traded leveraged Bitcoin fund that raises money by continuously printing its own shares. When MSTR trades at a premium to its BTC per share, issuing stock to buy more Bitcoin is accretive, existing holders end up with more Bitcoin backing each share than before the raise. Saylor turned the stock market into a Bitcoin acquisition pipeline, and being the fourth-largest issuer in America means that pipeline is running at extraordinary scale. Every dollar of that $20.9 billion is a dollar of demand for Bitcoin that wouldn't exist otherwise. Issue enough shares and you dilute holders unless the premium holds, and premiums compress when sentiment turns or the stock stops outrunning the underlying Bitcoin. The company already had to pause buying for two months this year. A perpetual equity-printing machine only works while the market keeps paying up for the shares, and "fourth-largest issuer in America" is either a flex or a warning about how much dilution is being absorbed. The risk was never really Bitcoin's price, it's the machinery, the premium, the dilution, the dependence on continuous access to equity markets. As long as investors keep buying newly-printed MSTR shares at a premium, the flywheel spins and the Bitcoin pile grows. The day they won't, no amount of Bitcoin conviction fixes it, because the problem isn't the asset, it's the funding model. Judge it as what it is: the fourth-biggest stock-printing operation in the country, pointed entirely at one asset. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Is ETH limited like BTC or can more be produced ? Bitcoin has max of 21 million coins what about ETH ?

Flashy-Potatoe-Queen

You are right that BTC failed at becoming a p2p currency (That's why I like KAS better), but today BTC is by far the most successful crypto in terms of adoption and marketcap by a mile.  Also your example of BTCs' "deflation supply" is a misjudgment. The supply is fixed, but since dollars are being printed like shitcoins... You end up seeing the price rise based on one supply becoming infinitely larger while the other doesn't move. For a supply to be deflationary, you need a shrinking supply over time. That's the only way. 

Effective_Engine319

I'm in ATL and go out of my way to spend BTC via lightning network. If a grocery store accepted BTC then they would get 100% of my grocery budget.

jackfirefish

I don't like the fact that liberals try and debank people who disagree with them. BTC fixes that problem. Gains are just BTC showing the USD becoming weaker.

Fidelity has its own etf, fbtc. You can also do custody there directly holding BTC for you in their crypto trading. Crypto offering also let's you import BTC and transfer it out. Even PayPal offers the same thing if you are interested. Need to careful evaluate the fees and see what makes sense long term

0x_Crypto_Pirate

Keep buying no matter what the price. Do it constantly (every paycheck or every week). Saylor bought at any price because the goal is to accumulate Bitcoin. El Salvador keeps buying 1 BTC daily because they also believe that the goal is to stack more regardless of the price.

ElephantEarTag

Yes. Most is in Cold storage. But I recently allocated 5% of my retirement portfolio to FBTC (Fidelity Bitcoin ETF) which is located in my Roth. I put it in my Roth for the tax advantages. A lot of people don't realize that their BTC in Cold storage will still have capital gains taxes when they sell. Also, Fidelity accounts are FDIC backed unlike your cold storage. We all pray that we don't end up like coldcard, but who knows.

pep_meister8

BTC and Ticker: $Pep (Pepecoin)L1 the only Pepe with its own blockchain. Merge minable with Litecoin and dogecoin.

TheCurlyHomeCook

I get both sides of this but the counter argument would be that shares typically are prices in the hundreds. When it reaches something silly like 2k you'll get share splits that bring the share value back down to something reasonable. The average person with 500 to spend would find a 2k share price unattractive. However the exact same company with same value could share split x10 so that the value is now 200, and suddenly it feels tangible and they'll invest. This is a loose example but it's meant to show that there is a genuine barrier psychologically for the average person. I'm full pro-BTC, and I still don't think this will stop it's success however it is a fact of life that as BTC has grown in value, it has become less attractive to those who don't understand because they think buying 0.003 BTC is useless. People who know nothing about BTC don't understand that it's divisible and therefore at 80k it seems ridiculous.

BaldGuyAce

What you’re saying is theoretical. But right now you have to turn your btc into dollars to actually spend it. BTC can and will probably return a higher rate over time, but I was simply replying to the guy who tried to claim that bitcoin was a better investment than the S&P because the market is gonna crash. Both will crash if the market crashes. So that argument makes no sense.

Suitable_Acadia_190

Captial rotation is real, should check history to see what followed in BTC after gold ran.

Traditional_Most105

If i had that much money and wanted safe approach i'd buy BTC ETH If i wanted more upside i'd buy SOL ETH BTC Dont know much about stellar but xrp i think there is a lot of hype into it which is not always good... In any case nobody here could rate this as objectively as you'd want to be rated cause most bet on BTC and ETH and the others including myself on coins we believe they might give us profit either long term or short term which again everyone is thinking their coins are the best... so people who comment negatively might be proven wrong on your portfolio and people who comment positively including yourself might be proven wrong again. Nobody knows what will happen. In the end its on how well you research, how fast you could see things or read news others might read too late, how well you could speculate before others start speculating and the part nobody has control over is how lucky you can be. Cause you might have done everything right and a negative development you have no control over might ruin your whole approach...

Kazixt

Exactly what part does the beginning of your comment have to do with ANYTHING BTC related?

Careless-Avocado-207

Whilst you’re there, nip back to my younger self and advise him very strongly to buy way more than one BTC when it was £86.

assembly_learner

I'm skeptical of them getting the funds back. Just stealling 4000BTC is already a huge crime

lilvixen

Can mail me cash in an envelope I'll send u BTC I promise bro

CryptoTradersChat

BTC is getting ready for a climb to 82k... :)

eetmyfartz

I think Crypto doesn't have enough track record to plan out 5 years from now, but if I had to pick one it would definitely be BTC.

renba7

Do you think BTC will go up in the long term? Buy it asap. Do you think it will go down, in the long term?Never buy it.

SimplyShred

I am thinking a 30-50% correction is much more possible than a continued push to 100k. 4 year cycle is still intact until proven otherwise even though we are dangerously close Bear markets make fool of both bulls and bears. Even though it’s early September I am anticipating BTC has locally topped and its all down here for here q4

whataday13

Yeah but we don’t know how much privacy will be at the forefront in the future. Could be an expensive upgrade from BTC

ubermensch1001

Bro, I never said I was buying more ADA lol. I am also 80% BTC and been around since 2018. I bought heavily in 2022 and been doing so again this year, this why I'm leaning towards being 100% BTC with these funds. I've considered maybe getting some Solana but not really that excited about it at this price. Also, I used coingecko for alt pairings to BTC.

ShittingOutPosts

That’s as far back as Coinbase reports. But if you think ADA will perform like it did in its first few years, then by all means buy more. I honestly could not care less. FWIW, I rode my ADA from about $0.10 to $3.00, and eventually dumped it around $0.80. At the time I thought that was the bottom…yet here we are. Converting my alts to BTC was one of the best financial decisions of my life. I’m just trying to provide you with some perspective.

ubermensch1001

Bro, June was the bottom for alts and we are just now starting to stabilize. ADA specifically is right around the lows of late 2022. It makes no sense to sell that now but I could totally see a case for that when it runs along with the rest of the market, which will happen. A 2x is only 44 cents, whereas for BTC this is 160k. If we see BTC run to 160k, whenever that happens, alts will collectively explode. Again, I can see offloading this during a rally but not when we are consolidating after a major bear market low.

ShittingOutPosts

It’s not always the case that alts outperform BTC. I posted a chart in a separate comment. ADA/BTC is trending rapidly to zero.

ubermensch1001

OK, and? You don't sell at the bottom, you are also not showing the chart going back to 2017. You are starting from around the beginning of the 2021 bull market until now. If you aren't aware, alts have collectively done nothing since this time period and done poorly compared to BTC.

ubermensch1001

You realize that if BTC hits 100k within a year the rest of the market will run with it, right? Why would I sell an asset that retail completely capitulated on back in June after the secondfi wallet hack when whales were and have been loading up? Literally makes no sense to do sell that now. I could see a case for maybe selling that and putting it into a different alt perhaps, but definitely not to go into BTC.

Weeklysetups

R/stocksetups banked hard on BTC pump last week 🤝

AdObjective9199

That's pretty concerning, especially with that amount of BTC involved. It'll be interesting to see how they address this issue.

ShittingOutPosts

Because ADA will bleed out against BTC.

BlazingPalm

Ah, that makes better sense, thank you. So basically, UTXOs? And estimates are often seeing individual UTXOs from well-managed wallets (not reusing receive addresses) being swept rather than the entire wallet of all UTXOs, resulting in a likely undercount of the stolen BTC. Followup passphrase question: do you think PP wallets were even attempted by the attacker? If you had a compromised seed and a weak PP wallet of “ABC”, would that have likely saved that wallet? Perhaps it would’ve survived up until now, but now secondary scavengers are retracing the now-empty seeds but also trying to brute force any PP wallets.

Asz12_Bob

Superstitions? I look at the chart and I see 4 four year cycles behind us. Hardly superstition. What do you attribute to BTC price action, Saylor's tweets? Whose in the White House? Or are you just a blind hodl forever type

Hmm let me share this with you all… this my 4th cycle and all the coins that pumped went down 95% at the mid/end of the cycle. Exceptions being BTC, ETH and BNB. I would humbly suggest that of you want to make any kinda money in crypto… keep DCAing in BTC/ETH and play with your luck with meme coins with the money you don’t regret if you loose.

ubermensch1001

Heavily leaning towards 100% BTC because I already am holding a lot of money in ETH and ADA, been in the market for a long time. Considering Solana but not super excited about buying at this price.

_blockchainlife

20% is too high. Aim to max out your ROTH IRA each year and put it in a S&P500 ETF like VOO or a more broad all world ETF like VT. For me, crypto (and by crypto I only mean BTC) is part of my portfolio, but I keep it between 3-5%, but ONLY after you've maxed out the ROTH IRA.

Izautrin

No, nobody got anything back, and realistically nobody will through the attacker returning it. Bitcoin transactions are final, there are no chargebacks, and Coinkite is not on the hook to refund the losses. The money definitely moved though, it did not just sit still. I spent the last few weeks reconstructing the whole thing on-chain. The stolen coins got funneled through thousands of consolidation addresses, not just a few. Right now roughly 2,918 BTC is still parked on the attacker's own addresses, and about 991 BTC has already made it out to exchanges and services. The rest is change bouncing around in between. The one path that could actually return some of it is not the attacker having a change of heart, it is law enforcement freezing the parked funds if they ever try to push them through a regulated exchange. That is why mapping the exchange and service endpoints matters. It is a long shot, but it is the only realistic lever. And a warning for anyone still holding an affected wallet: the sweeper is still live, the most recent automated drain I could find was in mid-August. Do not send anything to the old addresses, it will be gone within minutes.

It could be a "grey hat hacker" who is hoping there will be a small reward of 1 BTC or more offered by blockstream for details and aid in patching the bug.

It literally is just 1 shitcoin like any other, there is just promise that X amount of those coins redeems Y amount of BTC when you swap them.

tzimisce

The entire L-BTC in circulation was ~4200 btc. Not even a shitcoin, more like diarrheacoin.

Stopped missing with Shitcoins. BTC, ETH, SOL, HYPE Thats it.

ElephantEarTag

I'll give you three options 100% BTC 85% BTC 15% ETH 80% BTC 10% ETH. 10% shit coin of your choosing. Knowing that your shit coin may drop 95% and never out perform Bitcoin. And in the small chance that it does outperform Bitcoin, will eventually bleed back to bitcoin after a couple weeks of outperforming.

george_alto

Of course BTC. But also ETH and SOL. Wildcard SUI and ONDO

ubermensch1001

I already have a lot of money in alts, so leaning towards 100% BTC with these funds or maybe building a small position in Solana and everything else BTC.

UrbanGrower187

That’s a pretty weak argument lol. Believing an asset has strong long-term upside doesn’t mean you liquidate everything you own and max out credit to buy it. That’s called risk management. I already own more BTC than the vast majority of people on the planet, and Bitcoin represents a significant portion of my investments. I still diversify because I’m not stupid enough to pretend any investment is guaranteed. My point was that I believe BTC will eventually be sustainably above $100k based on its history, scarcity and continued adoption not that it’s guaranteed to go up 25% on some specific timeline. There’s a massive difference. Being bullish ≠ going 100% leveraged. 😂

bitusher

https://x.com/Liquid_BTC/status/2096696272447218108 We are aware of a security incident on @Liquid_BTC . Purported white-hat hackers have withdrawn ~4,000 BTC (~$320 million) from the Liquid Federation wallet. The @Blockstream team is working on contacting them on-chain with a signed message. What we know so far is that the funds were withdrawn via the SideSwap PAK (Peg-out Authorization Key), but that key was not compromised, nor were any others. Exchanges have been notified and have already paused (or will pause) LBTC deposits and withdrawals. Other Liquid assets such as USDT, DePix, and RWAs are unaffected by this security incident. Bridge nodes have been temporarily disabled, so no new transactions can be submitted to the network. Effectively, the Liquid sidechain is paused until this issue is resolved. Liquid wallets will be impacted, and we're sorry for any inconvenience. Federation members are actively working on resolving this so we can restore normal network activity. You can monitor the situation via @mempool 's http://liquid.network site below: https://mempool.space/address/bc1qdlld6antmv4xug242ed83q7k4rqw50cwfns38szx4qu2f4jwaxxsuhwxxr

ADA? Dump that shit. Convert all of your alts to BTC.

Grymmtooth

There is already a lot of research going into quantum resistant encryption. BTC could adopt a different method that follow one of these newer algorithms, but it would take a fork and adoption by the majority to make it work.

Head_Work8441

I want to sincerely apologize for my previous post accusing **NeoxEX (Neoxa.exchange)** of being a scam. After looking into what happened, I realized that **I had accidentally sent my BTC to the wrong address (Saved in my Bybit, instead of Neoxa)**. The issue was entirely on my end, it was not a problem with the exchange. Thankfully, the funds have now been returned to me. 🙏 I won't be sharing the transaction ID because it would expose information about my wallet balance, but I wanted to make this correction publicly so that nobody is misled by my original post. I feel pretty stupid about the whole situation, especially because I jumped to the conclusion that the exchange had taken my funds when the actual mistake was mine. 😔 **To be completely clear: my original accusation that NeoxEX was a scam was incorrect., this is the original post:** [**https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/1w4uuh8/neoxex\_aka\_neoxaexchange\_exchange\_is\_a\_scam/**](https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/1w4uuh8/neoxex_aka_neoxaexchange_exchange_is_a_scam/) I'm sorry to the NeoxEX team and to anyone who may have seen my original post and been influenced by it. 🙏 Please consider this post a correction to my original post. **The missing BTC was caused by my own mistake, not by NeoxEX.** Again, I'm genuinely sorry for the false accusation. 🙏

assembly_learner

4000BTC just stolen from the Liquid network This is such a clusterfuck

Izautrin

The reason it went quiet is not that it got resolved. It is that there is nothing to resolve on-chain. The coins are gone, the transactions are final, there are no chargebacks and no company on the hook to refund anyone. So the news cycle moved on, but the actual situation did not. I spent the last few weeks reconstructing the whole thing on-chain, and the part that surprised me is that it is still live. The automated sweeper that empties these weak wallets was still draining coins as recently as August 19th. It has been running since 2021, quietly, years before the July panic. So this was never a one week event, it is an ongoing operation that just stopped being newsworthy. Scale wise it is also bigger than the headlines suggested. I could recover about 2,052 affected seeds and 35,189 drained addresses from them. Net theft works out to roughly 5,080 BTC once you separate the attacker's own change-shuffling from money that actually left. A good chunk of it, around 2,918 BTC, is still sitting parked on-chain, and roughly 991 BTC has already reached exchanges. Coinkite did ship a firmware fix (4.2.0 and 5.6.0), so new seeds on patched firmware are fine. But nobody who already lost coins is getting them back, which is probably why it feels swept under the rug. Full writeup and the data are here if you want to dig in: https://github.com/izautrin/coldcard-rng-audit

The imperial core is collapsing. It's going to take out most of the world with it in fits of desperation. Anything that holds society up is collapsing and will completely collapse in a few years. You might have some pockets of humanity that moved to solar etc and have complete independence, but you're not going to find those to be BTC-friendly.

Accumulating BTC for years then when I retire barrow against the Bitcoin and never pay income taxes on the money I spend. I will pay a much smaller amount on the interest of borrowed money than income taxes. Then die and leave the Bitcoin to my son.

I'm leaning towards a100% BTC with these funds but I also have some of my habits and tendencies I developed with my first cycle, 2018 through 2021.

Kontrav3rsi

I’m only saying this once because I know anyone will drag me. XRP is going to have a significant role in global finance. I’m not going to talk shit on Bitcoin but we see more utility to our token. NFA, but if XRP 5x’s and everyone told you to put it into BTC my guess is you would be bummed. I would be EXTREMELY surprised if BTC goes to 5x this year. But I guess you should ask yourself, what more likely a 400k BTC this year or a 6 dollar XRP. Just doing my part to let people know about the coin before they miss an opportunity they might have otherwise been misled on.

Lando-Going-Commando

No more alts. Almost all have 0 utility (usually some fake story) and as nearly everyone here says, only go with BTC. Sounds like you are set on keeping your other alts, so no sense trying to talk you out of it. If you're truly trying to go where the puck is going, look at the holistic debasement trend and see that if you want to only put the 20k in the direction of the debasement trade, then BTC is your old option.

dark-cosmos

BTC only of course

inkandpaperguy

Personally, I think Ethereum will outperform BTC from now until 2030.

The-great-phoenix

In my opinion it is just a start the ETF newly opened is channeling brand new investors and the trend should keep on going for a while, maybe several weeks or so There are only 21M coins so supply squeeze start to be triggered the only history price reference we know on a similar coin which has matured now is BTC

LionRivr

Gains in what? USD? BTC isn’t about gaining USD. It’s about long term (10+years) of preserving your purchasing power in a scarce limited supply asset rather than a currency that can and will be printed infinitely.

ubermensch1001

I've already got very large bags of alts so it's either 100% BTC or maybe 50/50.

Tall-Blacksmith3632

Dollar cost averaging BTC wouldnt really help me as much as other crypto investments will

BTC or nothing. Shit is too volatile.

Nose_Grindstoned

I've always liked buying the chains. Btc, eth, ada, sol... but right now it looks like 100% BTC is where the most gains could happen.

joesus-christ

You should learn more about BTC. You should still buy it but you should learn what it is. There's no such thing as "underage" so just go and get some.

ubermensch1001

I already have large holdings in stake yielding alts and been holding BTC for years. Tempted to make some moves on the alts for eash gains while we are still fairly low but I really like the idea of locking in a sizeable amount of sats for the long term. .1 Bitcoin is actually a big deal for most people now and in the not too distant future it might be out of reach for them.

Glad you had this reaction. I think he was just being funny. Stick to BTC and that's it bro.

cannabananabis1

Hype is a nice play that I'm comfy and confident in for now. Eth is worth some allocation. Bnb is solid. Wouldn't be surprised to see it in the thousands again imo. Sol is decent. Near is riskier, as is zec. You would have to watch those and evaluate for yourself. Dont expect 10x returns. Know what you are getting into. Know when to sell and kill your greed monster.  You are far better off selling and missing out on profits and learning your lessons there than getting greedy and losing a shit ton and learning your lessons there instead. With a large amount of capital, looking for exposure to higher roi in the crypto space, just do BTC and maybe some eth. Like 70/30. 2x in 3years, you cant go wrong. Know what you want. Dont get addicted to trading, nor fall victim to fomo and ego. It's so easy to think you're the man because youre up. You'll take stupid trades, hold onto false hope, chase, etcetc etc.  So many pitfalls in this game. Stick to the boring easy route and close your eyes/ears. Slow and steady wins the race. Expand your time horizons and play the long game. Know what you're here for and do it intelligently. Btc out performs in the long run anyways.

Resident_Mango_3930

I have already bought HYPE, BTC, SOL, SUI, CC (Canton Network) throughout the bear market. There is probably some corrective wave coming given all the positive moves in crypto recently

ilovesaintpaul

I'm all for BTC, and most of my stack is there, but SOL is my high-beta bet. Only 10% in there though. I wouldn't play around with any other shitcoins though. I'm sure this'll be contentious both with the BTC maxis and those who disagree. Meh. I'm just telling you what I do.

AmedioZ

BTC using 15k, then I perhaps spread the remaining 5k between Solana, Hype & TAO.

PairHead9640

20k is a lot to play with but i would do exactly what you thinking. just put all in BTC and forget about it for few years. alts can give you more gains but also can go to zero very fast. is better to sleep good in the night than chase pumps

104MAS

Everyone’s going to say BTC since that’s what won last cycle expecting the exact same thing to happen. The real contrarian move would be to buy ETH as everyone has given up on it.

Ergo, decentralized, smart contract, POW, and has a self made decentralized bridge that connects to Bitcoin, eth, doge, BNB, firo, BTC runes, ada.

blaziken8x

You've been buying BTC, so you are invested at a good price for long-term. I would just keep it up and if there is a significant drop in price, do a lump sum investment if you like the price. (this is what I have been doing, but I was mostly making lump sum investments when fear and greed index was in 20s, I try to avoid buying when it's in the 80s https://coinmarketcap.com/charts/fear-and-greed-index/ )

I understand the sentiment, but there’s DEFINITELY a chance USD is legit cooked and will collapse in value and world reserve status. Fine to sell some BTC to live, but please people: hold on to some for the long haul too.

Grymmtooth

Yep. If quantum computing progresses significantly in 10 years, it could very well tank BTC. Mining hashing would probably be safe, but the digital signatures are not algorithmically resistant. As btc is distributed by design, any change would need consensus to fork and update, which I think would be difficult to do.

ilovesaintpaul

I'll butt in and provide mine. I'm 55 y/o. SPYG 20%, Various tech equities: 15%, Blue Chips: 20%, Various ETFs and 401k: 30%, BTC (and a bit of SOL) & Cash: 15%. If I were younger, I'd take a more risk-on. But, alas, my time on this sphere in space is limited.

These_Application531

OP a bit of backstory....the person who introduced me to BTC was a very early adopter, the only person I know became millionaire because of it, he always told me that in less than a year we will see 250k per coin, a couple of months ago, he died in a car crash, he will never see those coins up that high, I am not even sure if his wife have the keys to recover his coins , will BTC see 250k ? ABSOLUTELY, will we be here, that one no one knows for sure ....

ilovesaintpaul

I have! Great book. Could happen. I'm not denying that. I'm only providing my prediction which is good or bad as anyone else's. I dunno shit about fuck. Anyone saying anything else is fooling themselves. But, I might be wrong. I still believe in BTC. PEACE
