BTC

Jaded-Box-717

Do not sell just now and read about BTC as much as possible. If it doesn’t convince you, you will know how to transfer easily to a exchange but trust in your uncle and hodl it…

Extra-Succotash-9846

Do not listen to any speculation around value. Your 80k could be double or half in 6 months. If you want that cash value, make an exchange account (coinbase, etc.), and get your BTC loaded onto it and sell.

derbyfan1

Dont forget, before Q makes Bitcoin obsolete, it will make the current banking system obsolete. There are much bigger things to worry about than it making BTC irrelevant. But to answer your question - It wont make bitcoin obsolete.

Dettol-tasting-menu

Your uncle left the BTC to the wrong nephew.

Wonderful_Ad_8295

Open an account with any centralized exchange of your choice, transfer the BTC there and then convert to cash with your Bank account as the reciepient .. Do not send the BTC to the each till you have completed the KYC

dj_destroyer

Of course if you need the money then find a good off-ramp and sell; however, your uncle might have chose you for a reason (particularly if he has no kids). You're the youngest family member he could trust and he likely figured you would be the best suited to take it on. Remember, you may "need" the money but you didn't have it last month -- so how were you going to pay for these needs before? Do you think he bought the BTC just for you to sell it and cash out? Maybe he did, probably he didn't. Did you ever talk about Bitcoin with him at all? Maybe sell a bit for your needs and keep the rest as a token of your love and appreciation to your uncle? He was well ahead of his time and left you with over 1 BTC which is an incredible feat. Nothing is for sure but some people estimate BTC will be $1M by 2035. Will you be able to live with yourself if your uncle's last dying gift could have made you a millionaire but you sold at an all time low? Just my 2 cents and food for thought!

Selmemasts

Honor your uncle by learning about BTC and sell some after that if you still think it’s a good idea.

lexicon_riot

Bitcoiners have enough conviction to outlast every crash, and we're only down 50% from ATH this time. People won't stop building. Lightning, Ark, ecash (Fedimint and Cashu, not Paul's shitcoin), etc. The Jacks, Dorsey and Mallers, representative of businesses who are driven to scale Bitcoin payments and living on a Bitcoin standard. Circular economies around the world, from El Salvador, to Switzerland, online, and throughout Africa. The massive push for stablecoins to prop up demand for US treasuries, which is our Trojan horse that psychologically prepares the masses for BTC rails. Our doomed monetary and fiscal policy, which necessitates infinitely expanding credit, and which leave zero room socially or politically for reform before it's too late. The rising tide of authoritarianism on both the left and the right, highlighting the problem which Bitcoin is designed to solve.

Sadlave89

You will see news if BTC will start moving up. When it on flat position you don't see a lot of news ;)

Front-Assumption817

Won’t get passed and means nothing for BTC

MrMoo151515

The beautiful thing about Bitcoin is that 0.000001 hodler has as much of a say as someone with 5000 BTC. Reminder that anyone involved in BTC in one way or another is on the same team. Anyone in the space is benefiting you. Unlike FIAT which is a zero-sum game and revolves around theft.

mansonearrn

I went with Instacoins instead; they're regulated and cool with $20k or more. I swapped about $70k USDT for BTC last month. The spread was under 1%, and EUR hit the next day. It was way smoother than expected. They're on WhatsApp at +356 9907 3921. Just DM them what you have and what you want to swap to. You'll usually hear back within a few hours.

Cuckooland2

the fact that most people think its a cult, and although years of promise, it doesn't seems to have any value amongst a "digital gold" Most people i talk too are more interested in stocks, companies they can invest in an see founders speak, and actaul product - ps i love BTC

RespectFront1321

It’s mainly used by BTC maxis to dismiss any (often valid) criticism by alt coin holders. They post a BTC price graph and smugly claim HFSP without addressing anything else.

Bradystanish

How do you only buy 0.1 BTC in 2013? The low was like 13 bucks back then but it did hit some higher numbers later in the year

Spirited-Birthday-20

Fair buh you forgot 2013 had two distinct worlds January was $13, December was over $1k.I bought near the top of that year's run, not the bottom. $100 got me exactly 0.1 BTC back then. Yeah, yeah I know Timing is everything, including the timing of my own stupidity.

AdBrilliant7812

Yo hago como tú. Dca a btc, billetera fria, no tocar. Compro 1-3 acciones MSTR al mes. La misma idea en mente. BTC para largo plazo y seguridad. MSTR para venderlo a medio plazo y sacar rentabilidad.

zooka19

It impresses people who have no idea about Crypto, when in reality, SOL & BTC are the only reason my portfolio still sees green.

ivanjurman

Well, someone who has 0.000001 BTC practically has nothing, as a transation fee would probably be higher, his BTC are useless

MandyG6

Agreed. I did everything right last cycle and rotated into alts ready for the alt run which never happened. Got screwed. Lesson learnt. BTC all the way, have patience and lower expectations for returns. .

Optimal-Description8

0.07 BTC hodler here 🙂‍↕️

MuncherOfPaintChips

Hey I hold .00001 BTC my opinion is valid

Lefties_TheWorst7331

0.01 is being very generous lol the majority of people in this sub are anti BTC shills who are holding a bag of some trash ALTcoin(s) and come here to diss BTC instead.

KateR_H0l1day

There’ll be a lot of people writing about the second half of 2026 in the future, all about how they wish they’d have bought more during that period. And many more writing about how they wish they hadn’t sold when they did. And, yes this is definitely a prediction for what we’ll see! The smart money is looking at the markets, and considering when to rotate out of the S&P500/Nasdaq etc; back into Crypto, primarily BTC. I sold some SPY in the last month and bought BTC. I’m planning to do the same during the rest of this year, but only when I feel the prices are right both ways, and it’ll be relatively small amounts.

Peepzer

I could see the bip-110 stuff causing issues more so than Saylor. Saylor's a net buyer still and his last sell saw BTC go up in the near term. I think there's actually some relief there that people finally can see him as a human not a "I will always buy and never sell" bot. BTC was made to be transacted both ways! S&P is an interesting one. It's true that AI plays have had some shaky days recently, but I tend to believe these crazy upward moves can continue longer than seems reasonable.

No-Masterpiece2246

tbf BTC has much bigger problems than spam. Like, massive rehypothecation and naked shorting

Dangerous_Relief8971

"assuming BTC doesn't crash any lower" is doing about 90% of the work in this analysis lol. love the effort though, this sub needs more spreadsheets and fewer "wen moon" posts

everyoneisapotato

I don’t know how it works or what forces are behind it but this 4 year cycle is something else lol. This will be my 4th cycle and for the first 2 cycles i watched and played a little here and there. But in last cycle i planned it started DCAing when BTC was around 20-25k (low was 15k) and I sold most of my BTC and other crypto around 97-100k. This cycle i started again around 60k. I hope these cycles keep on playing and we can make some smart money. ETH performed real shit last cycle and I hope it breaks 5k this time. ✌🏻

SnooSnoo_1988

I know i had atleast 1 BTC in my Mt.Gox account. Never got it back and was too late to claim in the law suit.

Big-Finding2976

It's ETH and BTC that will fail.

Pacman_Frog

Okay... Here's the thing. That is a BTC wallet...from 2013. This means there are other wallets on forked block chains that have the same seed and also contain funds. Convert that shit to Bitcoin!

gorgonfr

It is all speculation. Could also never get to ATH again if fiat money gets scarce in next years. Enough time that people forget about BTC.

BestialitySurprise

I'm the opposite. If I see it surging even more after a ridiculous climb, I'm out. I'm too disciplined to buy when it's climbing. The people who panic are the ones transferring their money to those who are patient. I think there's going to be a long slump ahead. The cap on market BTC is getting big. Those who say they're holding until a million are dillusional. These price swings are going to stabilize now that BTC is mainstream, which is a good thing for the holders.

DangerHighVoltage111

Bitcoin is an idea for sound money where everyone can control their own money and transact p2p. It will never be obsolete. BTC got hijacked and ossifiers are slow to update and users will be even slower to migrate if they ever update. However other Bitcoins like Bitcoin Cash are not slowed down and already have QC save options that people can transfer too.

Timely-Fig2030

BTC > ETH > ICP feels like the natural progress. People say it for the last 6 years and lots of people got burned in ICP, but i still believe Internet Computer is the logical next step. Bitcoin feels old and slow. If you add the lightning network to bitcoin, then bitcoin also has just 1 company behind it, which doesn't make it different from ETH or ICP. So it is what it is. In this case internet computer is far more advanced. Just because ETH and ICP had more reliable gains in the past, doesn't mean it has to be like that in the future.

2xfun

I grind of mine just bought 2 properties. How? Payed with BTC ofc 

Brian_GRAY123

BTC giving crumbs and calling it mercy

arcrenciel

It is the same as stocks. You have the penny stocks, which most altcoins are. Buy these, and you either beoome insanely rich, or lose all your money. You usually just lose your money though haha. Then you have the blue chips, which is BTC/ETH. These are proclaimed dead every 4 years, but has always managed to come back stronger.

substandard2

Simple. You trade BTC for profit. Stop holding it.

razorfox

Just buy BTC and hold 😎❤️

Internet_is_tough

You don't understand the basics, but I am not here to educate you. BTC and ETH do different things.

BrokenHefaistos

Epstein basically funded the research that laid the foundations of BTC, dude needed kidcoin for his ops.

Bitches172882

Yeah, “BTC is holding strong” and “BTC hasn’t caught down yet” are the same candle with different captions ..nobody actually knows which until it’s obvious in hindsight.

NotNowImAsleep

Doesn't matter, he's been banned. The story didn't add up. Someone with substance abuse wouldn't sit on 1BTC, he would have cashed out real fast.

Gears6

or someone being more realistic despite supporting BTC. The time of that kind of increase is likely long gone for this specific "asset".

Logical_driver_42

Yeah I didn’t check that specific wallet I was just alive during the time. One of my friends spent a few hundred / 1000 dollars and it ended up being something crazy like .2 BTC we were looking back when BTC was 120k and thinking it was pretty dumb not to hold them.

Specific_Essay6041

But why take the risk with BTC? That boat has sailed, even if it gets to 150 or even 200 and one buys in at 60k that isn’t any different than SPY in the last 5-6 years and SPY is much safer in historical returns compared to who knows what may happen to BTC

No-Net3991

Exactly. The market doesn’t just transfer wealth from the impatient to the patient it transfers BTC from those who need certainty to those who can operate without it. Everyone says they want the discount, but few are emotionally prepared for the conditions that create it.

theincognito66

the people calling for 40k will either not even have enough dry powder to buy a lot if it happens... or it will never reach that low, and they will buy back in at 100k+ Everyone gets BTC at the price they deserve.

Grelkator

CARF and DAC8 make cryptos and specifically BTC use case useless, it's essentially a CBDC with forever transparency

Doritos707

Leaving other coins in shambles is not a thing that concerns BTC development wise.

Vast_Sky_3726

Giving strangers your wallet lol why? If you cant find seed phrase your done, also sint know how you can see how much BTC he has without the seed phrase

Serenaded

\>Will quantum computing’s advancement make bitcoin obsolete? You can google this. The answer is yes. There is no fundamental way for something that lives on SHA256 to still be functional after quantum doomsday. And this is probably why ETH is breaking away from BTC, and elites are pivoting to ETH. Quantum doomsday is coming in the next 10 years, probably faster now that US gov is throwing trillions of dollars in funding into it.

DefinitionScared8574

Congrats 🙌 I also started my BTC journey and DCA weekly.

Good_Extension_9642

Sorry to hear you lost all you precious BTC OP, this is one of the reasons I buy BTC ETF instead

Good_Extension_9642

Hey OP, I get what you're saying but I have read too many scary stories about people getting scammed and losing all their BTC, or losing it in another way like forgetting your seed phrase, sending it to the wrong address, losing your 24 would etc, so as soon as the ETF were available, I only by IBIT instead

NonVideBunt

I mean, BTC has lost a lot of market cap. You think it can’t go lower? Your head will spin how fail BTC can and will fail. But you should ride it all the way down… because .. it has value!

DiamondHandsDarrell

😂 Good luck! But you might be trying to send from one wallet type to another. Best advice I can give is get yourself a paid ChatGPT account and have it walk you through it. Explain in detail what you have going on. Otherwise you might send your BTC to a wrong wallet or type and lose it all

DiamondHandsDarrell

Yeah I hear you though. Over the years I've seen a lot of people have issues. My only issue was that my mailing address didn't match my living address. EXTREMELY annoying, but it wasn't more than $250 per BTC yet. It took some back and forth, when they still had customer service reps you could call, but it was addressed. If that happened to me now 😱. But I'll tell you this much: because of my experience with them, I don't think I could trust anyone else at the point.

Wide_Lock_Red

ETH was at 150-700 in 2020. BTC was way lower too. Things start looking bad if you bought in mid 2021 though or went for bad alt coins.

LibertyWithLiquidity

We will likely see $100,000 hourly candles on some days when BTC is trading in the 7 figures. Plan accordingly, stop consuming worthless slop & stack like a retard.

DullLimit5629

What error do you get? "Can't move it" is too vague. Is it an "invalid private key," "insufficient funds," "missing inputs," or broadcast error? Verify the address. Import the key into Electrum, copy the receiving address, and check it on a block explorer. Is the 0.1 BTC really still there? Compressed vs. uncompressed key. Bitcoin wallets from 2013 sometimes used different address formats. The same private key can correspond to different addresses depending on whether it's interpreted as compressed or uncompressed. Import vs. sweep. In Electrum, try sweeping the private key instead of importing it. Sweeping creates a transaction that transfers the coins into a new wallet you control. Wallet encryption or script type. If it's an old wallet.dat or the key belongs to a P2SH/P2WPKH address, the wallet may need the correct derivation or script type. Never DM anyone your key. Anyone who sees the private key can steal the BTC instantly. Ignore anyone asking for screenshots or the key

jbville003

If you sold at 100k you would've panic bought back in at 120k because BTC increased a whole 20% more??? A minor 20% jump shouldn't be enough to make anyone panic buy. Selling anywhere over 100k and buying back in below 60k thus nearly doubling your holdings is a smart move.

MathematicianFar6725

Will happen to the people who bought BTC as well

Ok_Crow_1623

What happen if you sent 3.588 BTC for 216 million company never sends the money 💰

Lefties_TheWorst7331

Umm.. 21m hard cap which most has been mined into circulation already. First coin to exist, no other ALTernative coins have surpassed or even gotten close to surpassing its market cap. Backed by true PoW. It doesn't need shit like NFT utility or utility to build a bunch of shit coins on its blockchain. Everyone acquires BTC at the price(s) they deserve. Few understand. There is no second best. They're called ALTcoins for a reason.

Rabimaster

I had 0.68BTC in there when the FED shut it down!

Odd-Fun-1482

Yeah if you are primarily BTC/ETH mix you'll be sitting in the -30% to -40% range

Al-Fayyad

I was pretty big on Reddit’s darknet sub. The early days were like the wild wild west and BTC was so much more easy to acquire(and cheaper). I sincerely think I used BTC more even legally then then I do now

Spicyocto

100k-200k this summer? Oh sweet summer child you’ve been had. BTC is going to continue to bleed for the rest of the year Just put it into the back of your mind Abe come back in a 2 years. If you need the money then you shouldn’t have bought during a bear market with the aim of selling in the bear market

dfdsousa

Yes! I spent 3BTC in one g of MDMA

Popular_Broccoli133

I love the BTC holders response of "should have bought MY shitcoin!" lol. Talk about missing the point.

FitCompetition1804

If you just think of BTC as an “investment”, then the ETF route has its place. Bitcoin is so much more though depending on your mindset, your trust, and your desire to be truly self sovereign in a SHTF situation. It may seem intimidating, but I highly suggest you research and educate yourself on how to self custody BTC. Are there risks associated, yes. But almost all of those risks are basically user error that can be avoided by taking the time to understand what you are doing and what to avoid. I’m about the same age as you, and while I dabbled with bitcoin in the past, this was the year I actually educated myself as I was waiting for a bear market to finally start accumulating with some seriousness. I have no intention of selling for at least the next 15 years… if ever. This second half of the year will be a great opportunity to start your journey and accumulate with conviction. Bitcoin is no longer a get rich quick scheme, so as long as you understand that and have reasonable expectations, it’s an asset unlike many with its own unique benefits. With that said, I would still diversify with traditional investments as well… but for now in this current market, accumulate that BTC.

Popular_Broccoli133

Yea you're right sorry. Ok so I open up a bitcoin chart, which is something that I understand is very complex and difficult for you to do. Then I scroll over to July 7 at 4am on the 1 week chart. And by the way let me know if any part of this isn't making sense, since apparently this is really difficult for you fathom doing. I understand you might be developmentally challenged so I'm not trying to make light of the situation. The price at the time of the transaction was $63,134.48, which means the transaction amounts are: 0.00139266 BTC or $87.92 0.00066375 BTC or $41.91 Any other basic tasks I can help you with? Would you like me to help you chew your lunch too?

DrSpeckles

The chance of anything still being around in 10 years is slim. Yes, even BTC. The main use case p2p cash is now provided by banks, except for edge cases like war zones and of course sanction busting. There is no compelling reason for it to go up anymore, more likely they all gradually drop to obscurity. There are far better locations for your retirement money now.

RetiredAvocado

Eh it's not all zeros. The cost to keep it safe and maybe insure it is real. There's more to changing BTC scarcity than some ones and zeros. You'd have to convince nodes and miners to update their own ones and zeros. And ya can't make them do that, nor reach into their computer and do it yourself. There's no auto update in bitcoin.

Lefties_TheWorst7331

One ETF would be hard to satisfy a market of millions or billions who want a slice. That's a terrible analogy or comparison to BTC.. let's be real.

mrjune2040

I just don’t know where you could have gotten the ‘ETH is outdated’ line from, other than an altcoin sub with an agenda. Because it’s just patently wrong, it’s literally the only smart contract protocol with a critical mass of uptake and last time I looked Ethereum and it’s L2’s accounted for the vast majority of all TVL and (real) transaction volume, plus EVM is what most banks and institutions are using to build their private blockchains on, plus the web3 Neo banks too. But broader advice, 99% of tokens outside of BTC will fail- so your current allocation is probably already too broad if you’re risk averse.

AirSpecial

I’m glad you got caught, it save a lot of lives. Hope you learned your lesson, if you get caught again it’ll be way worse. Hopefully you still have a lot of BTC.

RoaringDragonSword

Cringe. You have yet to learn that very few make money on altcoins long-term. They can get lucky first trades. That will never lead them to investing into safer assets like BTC and ETH. Instead what they do is gambling their winnings and lose it. Do you know what you call these people? Gambling idiots. Granted, investing in BTC and ETH to some is already considered gambling.

FitCompetition1804

It literally went up when he sold recently. BTC is just doing what BTC does. See you in 2029.

CryptoBot_Pro_117

Never forget the whitepapper. While they print money, BTC don't

blaziken8x

I would say dump everything and just hold BTC. But honestly, right now I would just leave it alone. Those will all probably move up in price alongside BTC when it moves. I buy when crypto fear and greed index is low (under 20) and move positions or sell when it's high (over 80). https://coinmarketcap.com/charts/fear-and-greed-index/

ElephantEarTag

Your holding SOL, the king of rug pulls, and your worried that XRP is a scam? My dude, divorce yourself from alts and stack BTC like it's gold.

The_Bitcoin_Act

Buying through a KYC exchange with a credit card or PayPal does mean that company now has your ID tied to that specific BTC purchase, and if you ever send those exact coins somewhere, there’s a paper trail back to you. If privacy matters to you here, the more common approach is buying without KYC in the first place, through peer-to-peer platforms like HodlHodl or Peach, or a local in-person cash trade, or a Bitcoin ATM that doesn’t require ID under a certain amount depending on your state. A few other things that help regardless of how you buy: always generate a fresh receiving address for each transaction rather than reusing one (Trezor does this automatically if you let it), and avoid linking a KYC purchase directly to a privacy-sensitive spend, like buying on Coinbase and immediately sending straight to pay for your email. Adding a hop or two, or letting the coins sit a while, breaks that obvious link. Some people also use coin control features in wallets like Sparrow to manage which coins they’re spending from. As for whether you should still buy through the credit card/PayPal route, that’s really a tradeoff between convenience and privacy, not really a security downgrade.

Lavayo

When I'm talking about coins I won't sell no matter what it's the BTC set aside for my kids. If I sold those at 100k I would have panic bought them back at 120k. Waiting out the bear market is comparatively easy actually. Much less stressful.

Lefties_TheWorst7331

And that's why you DCA and hold.. if you hold for a handful of years you're green on BTC.. with ALTs that doesn't always apply. Also, compare market cap of BTC to ALTs.. and you say they're all the same? Interesting..

BuyIndependent2319

I spent at least 20 BTC on drugs back then. Completely stupid. As soon as I bought bitcoin I’d want to spend it because who knew if it would fall in price and my $15 bitcoins could be worth only $14

edmcryptodad

I “invested” $35k, took out $77k, and have $20k left to reinvest. Waiting for BTC to bottom, then try again. 🤞

Internet_is_tough

Don't travel in bear markets lol. I have a cash buffer to last me for a full cycle (4 years). I refill the cash buffer when BTC weekly rsi is above 70. Happens once every year or two years. The cash buffer depletes only if BTC dies for 4 years. Invested portfolio is in btc mstr and bmnr.

OliveLegitimate3236

I have a position whew my APR is paid out in BTC on a daily basis, so the lower it goes the more Sats I get and I pray every night it'll stay cheap for a little longer. Unfortunately the liquidity pool is getting drier and once momentum reverse it'll be over.

Buster_xx

He said s doing n the Epstein list and dillutes investors. His last " sale" didnt even move the market. Just buy BTC, and ignore this pedo

Lefties_TheWorst7331

BTC is the same? By what metrics?

NonVideBunt

BTC is the same, no different. You’ll see eventually. No crying in the casino when it happens.

NonVideBunt

We will see what the long term chart for BTC looks like. Eventually at a macro level it will look like this.

NonVideBunt

Exactly.. crypto is just a casino and a scam, BTC and ETH included.

NonVideBunt

I mean… I wouldn’t exactly call BTC is the best path to wealth. If you got in anytime recently, better options for your money.

Lefties_TheWorst7331

Stop buying ALT coins and stick to BTC. DCA and hodl.
