BTC

Hour_Flounder1405

okay it's been a while since I've been charitable. so pay attention...like you didn't last time when I was first charitable back in July can called the 57K a major hard support floor...and that turned out to be true, because I am not wrong about major swing points. ever. You don't need to know how I do this, but just understand that my only agenda here is altruism. 100 percent charity. take or leave it. I'll not be responding to any questions or requests. over the next 180 days. BTC has a 44 percent chance of touching 53K a 51 percent chance of touching 59K. a 63 percent change of hitting 74K. to the upside, a 12 percent chance of hitting 96K. a 14 percent chance of hitting 92 K. a 98 percent chance of hitting percent chance of hitting 85 K. here is your trade range: place limit buy orders from 74K down to 53K. weight them to furnish a good average entry. Take profit at 85K, and at 92K and at 96K. The likelihood of BTC marking any new significant all time high in the next 180 days is very very low. So you are now committed a range trade model. It's wide enough to make some profits, just please don't get greedy and lever up on margin. Don't use margin at all for these trades. If I have to explain that to you, then you just have not traded long enough, in which case I reiterate that you not trade on leverage....ever. not perps for this one. Just straight plain vanilla. long term. There is a macro hard floor of support that extends down to 43K and even one large tranche at 22, and below that 17K. Now this IS your risk with these trades, but probabilities hold these are nearly practically impossible to mark unless there is complete market structural failure. And then we will be talking about much more serious issues...asteroid impacts, mega quakes, nuclear war, gamma burst disuptions, alien invasion and snakes on the plane. that sort of thing. But if we assume those black swans are gonna be the doom of us anyway, what is the loss of a bitcoin trade. One needs to have perspective about risks. some are credible and others are actually impossible to manage because they represent a problem that cannot be solved. The risks I am talking about toward 43 is actually real. But below that, unlikely. So if you are really risk averse, then set your limit orders all the way down to 43. Will that happen in the next 180 days? if 43 does get marked yes, it will likely happen in the next 180 days. after that presuming bitcoin does not retrtace below the current hard floor support of 57K/53K then we should see bitcoin take off again and make the all time high again and go to 160K is pretty fast clip. you are welcome

Lord_Mythand

Depends entirely on the FED rate hike and the performance of US Tech stocks (BTC has been behaving like a tech stock)

johnpress

When bitcoin was new you could go on a website, click a button and you're get like 50 btc. Thousands of BTC on my mom's PC probably hawked for drugs over a decade ago RIP. Good job on your milestone though!

Old_Cucumber_1343

dont tell anyone IRL you own BTC, ever. it sucks. i'm going to be rich off btc too one day. but i won't tell a soul. if you want you can DM me as long as you're ok with me revealing nothing about myself, but we can celebrate together when it hits 1 million.

Eren__08

The “wake up → Fed prints money → buy Bitcoin → repeat” cycle 😂 At this point the alarm clock should just say “check BTC.”

CaltonSmith

The whole reason of BTC was to NOT exchange it with Fiat to trade Fiat for goods but to Trade BTC directly for goods. If You have to exchange it for Fiat to Trade for goods BTC failed. Or is still Not matured. However you want to Look at it.

QuickStopMaster

A friend of mine sold a bag of weed to a guy back in the day (when Bitcoin was newish). He had no idea how to use it. The guy paid him 50BTC and he's held on to it ever since.

Sin-City-Sinner

Some places are even worse, and yea that was my point to the person who said 1.0023BTC will make you rich when it goes to $1,000,000, even in the US your only walking away with 600k maybeeeeee, unless you don’t cash it out and use it wisely, but your still not rich.

Upper-Media3769

I feel you. I achieved that a few months ago. It's better to keep it private. In 10 years you don't want anyone to know your BTC balance.

Professional_Track95

Higher gain (50-100%+) when keep holding BTC. No waiting to trade on market hours.

Top-Care-8946

I am doing just like that: Buying BTC from Exchanges like Kraken and then send them directly to my hardware wallet. So far no problems. One thing what must be taken into account that exchanges may freeze accounts or decline to initiate transactions if they suspect fraud attempts. For this it's very important that KYC must be processed and passed correctly. I have tried different ways of swapping crypto using Trezor Suite and this works well. I don't spend my funds to purchase something because these transactions are taxed so my idea is just collect BTC with small amounts because it's volatility has proven that it does not have sense to buy large amount as it's market value fluctuates too much. By the way currently I have paused buying crypto and BTC at all (I don't sell either). I just watch how my balance changes and later when I decide that it's time to buy again then I will continue to stack up BTC again.

Optimal_Jump_8395

Just tell them what your BTC bag is currently worth and they'll get it... Kind of... WTF?? 😆 🤣 😂

Icy_Dragonfruit__

Keep some gold instead of moving it all into BTC. No one really knows if this is the bottom or not and having both gives you some diversification instead of going all-in on one asset.

Johnaaayyyy

I wrote down a simple system for myself assuming BTC is above all time highs and above the 60 Week EMA, I have round tripped enough investing bags to hopefully learn my lesson xD. I will sell 1/100th of my allotted stack for this cycle trade every week. When it has a weekly close below the 60 Week EMA I dump the rest. Will allow me to DCA out without much head ache for up to 100 weeks if we get a crazy bull run and still exit at a reasonable point as well. Simple, but has performed well all previous markets.

THE_CRYPTOMEEL

Sittin at a cool .02 of BTC, wish I’d never sold or gotten liquidated in October 😅

RunItupBaby

Your buddy messed up his trades and got deeper than he could handle. I mean BTC just broke new highs not too long ago pushing $126k. It will test that again and push even higher. If your not trying to day trade it and just hold onto it, you will see gains

No-Librarian9605

Step 1: never price BTC in fiat Step 2: see step 1

IAmFitzRoy

Uh?. Thats not true. Why many talk like BTC have some fixed returns somewhere?

billybobbybrownbaby

QNT volume is insane. second only behind BTC on coinbase. Congrats all long term holders.

eflatviola

Did he even say buy his stock rather than BTC?

Key_Independent_818

Wtf are you talking about? You can directly choose the mining pool. Don't comment on something you have no idea about. Kryptex streamlines everything to make it an easier experience for people. You can join a particular pool for a coin and choose to convert it automatically to BTC or mine BTC yourself. How the F is it a scam. I cashout everything month and send it to my wallet.

Cold-Dragonfruit-868

Bticoin is really the only hope for the USA to get out of debt. No way it happens at 5% interest per year. They need a 5x on bitcoin value to make a dent in that debt. In the end you are right BTC is the only hope for fiscal sovereignty of the USA.

billybobbybrownbaby

it’s either enough money to where you won’t be able to cash the crypto out without some KYC (if you’re american) or it’s not so much in which case get it in BTC and buy some gift cards

eflatviola

He is a BTC advocate not mstr advocate

tenor_tymir

Thing is if you take that money now and buy BTC, it would most certainly yield a better return than mining on free electricity

No-Masterpiece2246

Putting money in MSTR instead of BTC undermines the investment thesis he is advancing. It centralizes supply in a counterparty. And increases confiscation risk 1000x. The government could seize billions worth of Bitcoin by simply forfeiting Strategy's entire stack. So it follows that when the time comes, Saylor must do what the government tells him to do.

Lavayo

BTC was lower when everyone expected cuts at the beginning of the year, now we got a hike and it rallied, another hike this year is broadly expected. After the fed meeting the narrative shifted why BTC would rally despite or even because of hikes. Nobody knows shit, except that BTC is a hard asset in a dying system.

coolgamerboi23

So I recently sold a few roblox items on the grey market, and now I need help cashing out. paypal requires my SSN, which I dont know and dont want to give, so that leaves 3 options, BTC, ERC20, and LTC, the latter 2 I've never even heard of. Idk if there even is a way, but I figured if anyone knew it, it'd be you guys

Good_Extension_9642

OP is a decade too late, it's a cutthroat business now, you're safer just buying BTC

Gehrman_JoinsTheHunt

In 2016, people would have said the same thing about a 60% CAGR prediction over the following 10 years. But it happened. The range I gave for the next 20 years was 15-20% average annual growth. 15% would result in roughly $1.5m per bitcoin. 20% would result in $3.3m per. 20 years is a long time. I'm not an irrational hyper-BTC person, but I do think either end of that spectrum is reasonable.

JAMGlobalStudio

One underrated use case is actually **using crypto as infrastructure rather than treating it like an investment**. For example, depending on where you live, it can be useful for sending money internationally, receiving payments without relying on traditional banking rails, interacting with decentralized applications, or holding/transferring assets directly without an intermediary. If you're interested in the broader technology/business side rather than just buying coins, I’d also check out this book: [https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0HKY9JYBY](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0HKY9JYBY) It’s not specifically a crypto book, but it covers AI systems, automation and digital business workflows, which IMO is where a lot of the interesting practical applications of decentralized tech can eventually connect. And yeah, I think your question is fair. If you're just buying BTC and staring at the chart, you're mostly treating it as an asset. The more interesting question is what problems the underlying infrastructure actually solves for you.

KeyBackRecovery

You've actually established something important here: the 18-word phrase appears to belong to the old [Blockchain.info](http://Blockchain.info) wallet, not the Mycelium wallet. Since you believe the BTC was transferred from [Blockchain.info](http://Blockchain.info) to Mycelium, I wouldn't spend too much time trying to turn those 18 words into a Mycelium seed. The two things you mentioned later are potentially much more interesting: the original HTC phone from 2014 and the 500GB disk image from the computer you were using at the time. I would preserve both exactly as they are before experimenting further. If the old phone still contains the original Mycelium installation/data, that may be much more useful than trying to reconstruct a seed phrase you may never have written down. The disk image is also worth preserving. Old wallet backups, exported keys, screenshots, notes, email archives, browser data or other wallet-related files may still exist there even if you don't remember creating them. Before modifying, updating or resetting the HTC, I'd first determine the exact phone model, Android version if possible, whether it boots, and whether the original Mycelium app/data is still present. And don't post any recovered seed words, private keys, wallet databases or backup files publicly. If you're still working on this, I'd start with the original HTC rather than the 18-word [Blockchain.info](http://Blockchain.info) recovery phrase.

Good question Merged mining solves network security problem. The same hardware mining Litecoin can simultaneously, with 0 extra electricity or hardware, secure any number of smaller chains on the same algorithm (Scrypt). This isn't theoretical, the AuxPoW protocol has supported it since 2011(?) (Namecoin has been merge-mining with Bitcoin ever since, with no changes to BTC's code), and today on Scrypt, LTC + DOGE + BELLS + PEP all do it at once. So: Bitcoin was technically capable of this from the start, all the merge-mining logic lives on the auxiliary chain's side, not the parent chain's. And yes, in theory you could merge-mine a "ton of tokens" at once, the protocol allows it. In practice, the bottleneck isn't cryptography, it's pool software (has to handle x different chains) and economics (each additional token is marginal benefit for the miner). But here's also a part merged mining doesn't solve: it secures the network against attacks, but says nothing about how fairly the coin launched.... Creator can premine or instamine, meaning allocate themselves a big chunk of supply before or right after launch, and then still plug in merge mining later to look "secure" and legitimate. Hashrate defends against rewriting block history, not against dishonest distribution at launch. Those are two completely separate things, and both need to be checked independently. That's why, for any merge mined coin, I look at two things: who's securing the network, and who actually holds the coins. Pepecoin checks both boxes: 100% of supply mined publicly from block one, no premine, no ICO, and merge mining was added only after the fair launch, not as a way to disguise one.

Budget-Aardvark-7860

the only one sounding delusional is you, when tf does someone trust Fidelity on the matters of BTC, i think i’ll trust the people that have been in the space a decade + and if they are skeptical so am I, time will tell who was right

AmazingfurnitureCT

DCA BTC for the rest of your life and Chill. Time is on your side

account009988

AI has no effect on BTC mining so what are you asking?

Budget-Aardvark-7860

All i’m seeing is ppl that think they are geniuses because they bought at 75k, and calling everyone that challenges their thesis about up only “sidelined”, idk about yall but id rather not be with the herd on this one, its crazy people are calling a bull market when BTC hasn’t even tested its prior support to hold, ive seen this story before, retails stays getting dumped on smh

Patrick_Atsushi

I personally prefer a relatively steady growth over constant +-10% fluctuations. The long term gain in BTC is better than stocks so here I am.

pubic_discourse

Very good counterpoint, but real estate has a lot of transaction costs, carrying cost and idiosyncratic risks like location and build and whatnot. You’re absolutely right, other real estate stands to gain a large % of the capital, and other hard assets too, but Bitcoin has a lot of great properties for people who come to this epiphany: liquidity, ubiquity, sovereignty etc. I think the thesis is sound even if BTC is only a tiny fraction of where this capital moves frankly

quintavious_danilo

Yes. BTC going to zero is very very unlikely.

Torshein

Dollar cost average. Set it, forget it. Only convert the USD you don't need in the next few years to BTC.

Confident_Ground_775

Not true. When you convert BTC into USDC it is a taxable event.

Zealousideal-Ad7773

Do the opposite of Youtube thumbnails. Everyone was bearish and we got up. Now everyone is calling BTC at ATH, we will probably correct.

88eth

Should be fine I have sent 50 BTC to the wrong address before, its always been returned. One time I sent the $250m payment for my superyacht by mistake 18 times and they refunded it also (browser was bugged and reloading the page would re-send the transaction). You are lucky its only 50 ETH, ETH is literally still worthless and not worth anything more than the $0.25 i paid for them back in the day.

JakobBowser

No guarantees for another alt season, I'd stick with BTC and maybe a little eth

RobOTx63

Reads like OP asked AI to write a story about losing BTC with X, then decided to post across multiple subs.

LetsLearnYouZhongWen

My brother in Christ, you are questioning BTC while blindly throwing money at other crap. 

username12435687

That's still 2.5k worth of BTC.. and at its highest closer to 5k in BTC. I'd be pissed too

Backrus

Performance this year vs benchmarks (BTC and MSTR); performance since we started bull on August 24 (close above weekly ema50), whales' positioning, ETFs flows, and narrative simple enough that even average redditor can understand it (ZEC is privacy, although honeypot lol, but number goes up, but just use Monero, HYPE is basically better CBOE/RH, although for options there's DRV, LIT is the same so it's diversification, NEAR has been he best out of AI plays). Then again, alts shouldn't be more than 5% of your overall stock portfolio. Disclaimer: I've had those since 2025, so my cost basis is infinitely small. Still, every cycle worked like that - early winners just kept running and winning even more.

Efficient_Range1156

0.0289 BTC?

hoppeeness

Yes. Skipped. Too many old school cryptos here to admit it though. Small cap alts are way out performing BTC and ETH and even SOL a little Great example in DOVU. Actually moved from ETH to HBAR…real tech for real use cases. https://np.reddit.com/r/Hedera/s/dTzrZIvOVg

Alfador8

Night and day is a fair comparison. They're very different assets. Bitcoin is a single, notoriously volatile asset, whereas SPY is meant to be a relatively nonvolatile basket is exposure to many large companies in a variety of industries. That being said, they share the characteristic of being a hedge against monetary inflation/debasement. The debasement narrative has been picking up steam for the last 3 months, and during that time BTC is up 40% and SPY is up 4%

Backrus

Honestly, no point for quite some time. First of all, there's no such thing as "investing" in crypto - to invest in something, it has to have fundamental value. Tokens created in 15s (yes, it takes that long) don't have any fundamental value. You can argue BTC has some, but still, you're gambling on price appreciation without any logical reason. When IBIT options launched, BTC lost its ability to generate upside volatility (in January GVZ flipped BVIV, and BVIV chart alone is just sad). Without that, it's just another stock with market like returns and much bigger downside risk. So it's hard to find honest argument to have it in your portofolio on a risk-adjusted basis. Then again, if you have to hold something, do it with BTC - there are periods when it decorrelates from stocks (but over last 3 years it decorrelated from the upside lol). Since COVID dump / post 2021, stocks have better volatility, and better risk-adjusted returns (BTC has been the worst performing asset in the world on an absolute and risk-adjusted basis since IBIT options launched on November 19, 2024; although it might change with the start of new bull market on August 24). Not to mention all the investor protections in the world. If you still wanna gamba, this cycle has already decided its winners: HYPE, LIT, ZEC, NEAR.

MAGICAlenceria

No lo haga Bro. La estrategia correcta es el Precio de Compra Promedio, entre 12 y 18 meses posteriores al ATH, ya van 12 meses. Te recomiendo aprender sobre el Ciclo Mundial de Futbol Soccer/BTC Requeriría mucha explicación pero el precio correcto para este ciclo de 2026-2029 es debajo de 75K, si eres bueno de 65K a 75K. Y calculamos que llegará de 210K a 230K, 20% de probabilidades a 250K.

Post is by: Appropriate-Talk-735 and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1wrm2xt/technical_analysis_actually_works/ I tested BTC and a couple top cryptos over the last 5 years and these are results with 0.5% fee and using the worst buy and sell prices in the bar traded. These results are much better than if you randomly trade the same instruments during this period. So I implore you to give TA a chance, I was sure it was "astrology for men" until I actually tried it. The pattern here is a horizontal breakout. I filtered out so it only runs when BTC is in a bullish regime.

If BTC manages to close today above 83k we can new highs

I keep my actual BTC stack mentally separate from anything short term cold storage is one thing and trading is another Moon sits more on that second side for me so I dont start treating every little move like a reason to touch the long term bag

BTC chop is where I start doing dumb stuff if I stare too long been bouncing between the chart and Moon around these levels but theres still no reason to force anything until the range actually gives

bit of both. I have an economic calendar bookmarked and if i see something big coming, i 'll cut my leverage down beforehand. learned that the hard way last year lol. I keep most of my BTC on bydfi with alerts set so I'm not glued to the screen all day. honestly the best thing I did was stop trying to predict every move and just manage risk around the dates that matter

So you wanted me to say 'blackrock customers are buying'? Fine - but I chose to phrase it in a more succinct way so that we can focus on the matter at hand, which is retail sentiment. Besides, Blackrock does not represent small retail clients, they service public/corp pension funds, insurance companies, and of course private capital. So whales. I could have mentioned all that but it was easier to say 'Blackrock just loaded up on BTC' ;-)

KateR_H0l1day

Blackrock is not a Company buying BTC for itself, it a holding ETF for retail, same as Fidelity, Ark, etc who have a BTC ETF. This is totally opposite to Strategy, Strive, MetaPlanet, etc. who are BTC-TC’s that buy for themselves! Therefore, your hypothesis is completely wrong, retail is getting stronger than native buyers. They (retail) like the safety of companies such as Blackrock holding their BTC for them, and are willing to pay for that privilege!! Which, also shows the status of how holding crypto is perceived, still far to many scams/frauds and opportunities to lose what you’ve worked hard to buy, including losing your seed phrases 🤷‍♀️

Backrus

And what makes you think you're capable of choosing exact runners that will outperform? Moreover, why do you benchmark alt to BTC? You should benchmark to MSTR (or MSTU if we're talking sub 100M mc).

NivTheGever

Yes seeing BTC going to the bear market low is not something I would think right now, of course there are unexpected catalysts that can happen, which actually Trump said he would so something right after the midterms (which we should take in extreme doubts since it's trump). But I still can't see how BTC can rise with this disaster full year. I don't see any reason for this rally to 87k too. And there are so many times the market don't make sense but we should react. I still want to bet for 60s again but now it doesn't seems likely..

Mission-Dependent391

Funny how everyone wants the crash until the crash actually shows up I was watching BTC across Moon and a couple charts during the drop and the mood changed fast Buying when the timeline feels awful is a lot harder than planning it beforehand

Proof-Chemistry9630

Selling everything and even taking loans for BTC is wild I get having conviction but thats a lot riding on one outcome I still check BTC across a few places Moon included and even normal swings are enough to mess with your head Ten years from now this post is either gonna look genius or completely insane

hoppeeness

Yes. Skipped. Too many old school cryptos here to admit it though. Small cap alts are way out performing BTC and ETH and even SOL a little

Competitive_Cook_939

He is correct about BTC not being in a bull run yet though

tiv5656

I understand what you’re saying but I have 2 counter arguments… 1: Bitcoin will scale with inflation. I think we’re all confident the value will grow past inflation rates but at the minimum it will keep up. 2: I like to look at mining rewards. In 20 years, miners will get less than half a bitcoin / block. Having more BTC accumulated than the current mining reward has always been a significant amount of USD. I suspect that will continue

A_Honking_Goose

You people don't really understand whats happening atm, we aren't in a BTC bull run yet believe it or not what is happening with most alts is they are now correcting compared to a really deep pullback during the bear. BTC and ETH did not correct as much so for the time being they arn't pumping as much. Normal fairly clueless retail people like yourself will be caught out by a huge correction in a couple months after that is when the real BTC and eventually crypto bull run will start.

Calm-Neighborhood-43

People are saying stick to BTC which is a normal and sensible response. But given that you've already bought some shit coin that no one has ever heard of i takeit that you dont want to do the safe thing and buy BTC. Look at something like bittensor Instead. I wouldn't be surprised to see it 10x in a bull run.

usedmattress85

I personally do a combination of using the Larsson Line and just paying attention to the BTC cycles. The Larsson Line subscription is very expensive now but I was an early adopter so I have it for life. I believe there are free alternatives on TradingView you might look into. I believe it’s just a combo of a couple of moving averages or something with a little secret sauce added in…I really don’t know. Then I watch a lot of Ben Cowan to understand the charts, macro situation etc. now Ben was predicting a bear market low on Q4 this year and that may not play out exactly but we may still get another dip down at least. My strategy is to sell everything when the Larsson Line flips blue then buy back at some price that will come close to doubling my bag. So far it works. The best part is that it’s stress free. Worst case scenario I buy back at my sale price and I lose nothing . Yet I have so much to gain through this strategy. Everyone says HODL but that really never made sense to me, especially when BTC cycles are so predictable Best of luck

Only BTC in my opinion. ETH has trouble to hit ATH all the years.

perma_banned2025

Accept the losses, or you will ride that shitcoin to zero and lose more. Put 90% into BTC The other 10% can be played with in shitcoin if you must, but if you don't have a lot to lose or are comfortable with losses (it's clear you're neither of those) I wouldn't bother

Why? They mentioned BTC, a shitcoin and a dead coin.

Spicyocto

If you haven’t lost money at some point while learning then you ain’t doing it right. Learn from your mistakes. Saying that BTC and ETH is a safe bet. Just be prepared to hold through thick and thin

billybobbybrownbaby

Everyone here will either be a dick, try to make a little joke for some upvotes, or shill whatever coin they hold the most of. nobody here knows shit. if you want to stay in crypto and not “gamble” as you say then stick to BTC. If you still have an itch for alts then stuff that’s been around a while like ETH XRP XMR SOL etc…. but this is crypto it’s all gambling. anyone who says anything else is delusional

zezinho9904

Hello Su tu veux commencer avec 300€ ,ça peu être simple est sans prise de tête . Tu ouvres un compte sur un plateforme ,moi je préfère Weex ou Pionex mais il y en a beaucoup. Tu prends une position sur BTC on va dire de 50€ avec un levier de 2 et tu laisse tourner . Vu que tu a de la marge de côté le risque de liquidation est très bas voir inexistant,sauf évidemment un crack du marché . Si tu vois après quelques jours que tu est en positif ,tu place un stop loss a ton prix d'entrée est la t'es sûr que aucune perte en cas de chute sévère . Et tu recommence ensuite ,car a un moment donner ou a un autre le marché va repartir est l'idéal c'est d'être dans le train . Cette solution est évidement sur du long terme et pour éviter toute perte

Hot_Reply_8349

The docs are decent but they skip over the whole funding part like it's obvious to everyone. You need some BTC already in the wallet before you can trade, kind of a chicken and egg thing. I got my first bits from a friend who was already using it, maybe ask around in your circle?

Idk which country you are in but I've been holding crypto ETFs in a tfsa. That way there's no tax on gains. Each share of an ETF is directly backed by x# of btc. Usually something like 0.000012BTC (which is 30$ today)

Says the guy who owns 0.00x BTC. The picture is literally facts. If these two world governments did not care or that Bitcoin was worth nothing, they would have SOLD it. ASAP. Stop posting here if you’re just going to trample on actual holders who are spittin’ straight facts.

the deadline point matters more than the hypothetical billions. If OP wants to recreate the DCA properly, how would they even track the coins across old purchases, exchange withdrawals, and lost records? A BTC address only shows what ended up there

S&P 500 is good for long term holding. For Monero you can only speculate. I keep some to always be able to make anonymous payments. I also think that it has a lot of potential with fiat currencies getting digitalized. But I don't think it will become mainstream like BTC because governments do everything to make it unavailable for normies.

This calculator assumes the BTC are held through retirement. Y’all don’t even understand what you’re criticizing, lol.

Kinda. This [video from 3Blue1Brown](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBC-nXj3Ng4) explains it far more eloquently than I ever could. Basically, a miner groups together as many transactions as will fit into a block, prioritized by fee. These miners *compete* to create such a block by find one whose header *hashes* to a value below a certain threshold based on the current "*difficulty*", where this *difficulty* adjusts to keep the time between blocks at around 10 minutes. This can be though of as finding a hash with x zeroes for simplicity. The winning miner gets to award themselves all the transaction fees, plus the block *subsidy* (currently 3.125 BTC).

Do you think BTC will go up? * **If yes**: Buy more * **If no**: Don't buy more
