BTC

Ask ChatGPT, it was very helpful for me to create my portfolio and buy BTC

No_Application_1579

BTC is at 68k. WTF is this picture?

bcyc

No worries you can pay for the course in 5 instalments. Just send me your BTC as collateral.

MTBGYM

Thats greed.... I use my BTC for a living.... i spend them high... buy them low... Better than high credits...used for my Cars, my House...my Holidays.... I dont get poeple hoddling them damn coins till death...wow.... But i apreciate all those who never sell....as those make the coins rare over time...

CommercialLychee7956

It didn't do much in 24-25 when BTC was pumping, the pump happened afterwards when BTC had more or less topped. If I buy an alt, I like one that moves with BTC because it's easier to predict when to get in/out and if it's been around a while there's a chart to analyze. And yeah I roped myself into buying some ADA back in 22, learned my lesson. Tbh it doesn't matter how nice a project is conceptually, it matters how much activity it has and if big money wants to buy it (if your goal is making money off crypto, that is).

twincam-110

It was a huge short squeeze plus BTC had institutional inputs - six-session total from August 17–24 to roughly **$2.26 billion of net ETF inflows**

Clear-Interest-5638

Bro, das ist Krypto. Wenn du nach so einer Kerze kaufst, wirst du natürlich erstmal paar Prozentpunkte fallen, bis die nächste größere Bewegung stattfindet. Ist ist allerdings kaum absehbar, ob BTC noch mal krass fallen wird oder wir langfristig bullish sins

MIP_PL

Worked for me in the past, swap to ETH when ratio is 50:1, swap back to BTC when ratio drops to 20/25:1. No guarantee that this works again in the future.

awgepizza

I actually checked the charts and I'm seeing that ZEC always pumped when BTC pumped, for some reason I thought there were times when it didn't, so cutting losses would be a bad idea because now it's hitting ATH. I agree, though, when a project doesn't pump during a bullrun then it's over. I had so much faith in Charles Hoskinson with his new project called Midnight, but it seems like I lost a couple of thousands, because it's not doing shit while meaningful low-cap projects are doing great candles..

Have you had a chance to buy ETH under 2100 & BTC under 70k? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

FredyTheClown

Stand behind your claims and long BTC on a 10x leverage, come on, do it !

theboned1

I thought about throwing $400 into BTC when it first went low. If I had I would now have $480. Im not gonna lie. I could use $80.

Serious-Stick2435

OP is the kind of BTC "investor" that Will lose money even when BTC raises just for taking bad decissions

Gangaman666

Could be worse you could be a r Buttcoin moron waiting for BTC to go to zero 💀

Gh0mri

See you at 1$ BTC

ConcernSquare2474

I dont get why it is posted here at least twice a day and ppl are upvoting like it is meaningfull BTC info.

mozy-rama

That depends on your investment strategy bud. Me personally? I'm a long-term investor, so I will be holding and popping champange I got lined up. You're invited to the party when that happens. Also, I think you're missing the most important part, BTC price must hit $82.3-82.8k as **support**. Hitting that price to only be rejected again means nothing.

cpold_cast

When you say a handful do you mean a handful of 1 BTC because that is mental

kbreezy200

I can tell that you’re young by your stock reply. Say someone purchased BTC in 2017 but in 2024 needed to repair their house, had an emergency or simply needed alittle to get by. Money is for you to use.

Dry-Pop-7635

While nobody knows for sure, you should look towards macroeconomic forces. Why do you think people were going nuts about the unwinding of the yen carry trade? Why do you think bitcoin spiked when they announced they were doubling buybacks of US govt long bonds? Who owns all the debt the US owes? And what happens when the US starts buying it back? Why did BTC spike with gold and stocks at the same time? And what is the fed going to do to control that? Think harder dude. Btc didnt spike because of the supposed bottom. It spiked because thr dollar is weakening, and it will continue to weaken and inflation will continue to dominate, causing a new depression if it isnt controlled soon. The question is really if the fed will hike rates in September. Decision in 6 days. Hike rates = curbed inflation. USD gets some stability back. Cost of borrowing increases. Cost of investment also spikes. Crypto will see a dip. No change = yen continues to destroy USD. USD gets even weaker. People who were on the fence pile in, followed by FOMOers and "technical analysts" who predict "a peak of 83k+ is a reversal hurr durr" (fed is in a tough spot, both hiking and lowering rates have bad consequences, but seeing as their job is to protect the value of the dollar, i reckon they'll have to hike them soon. 3rd or 4th quarter this year, and maybe again 1st-2nd quarter next year. Not financial advice. My personal opinion). Polymarket has the fed at 34% chance of hiking the rate for september, or approximately 1/3. Seems to be rising slowly. Fed insiders dm me pls.

Kishanbhatt26

I’d be careful about waiting for one exact price target. BTC has moved pretty quickly recently, and there’s no guarantee it revisits £49–52k. Personally, if I were investing for the long term, I’d rather spread the buys out than make the whole decision depend on catching the perfect dip. That way, if it keeps going up you’re not completely left behind, and if it does pull back you still have some cash available.

VAUXBOT

Attempt to test ATHs, fails, then it crashes back down, BTC halving happens then it hits ATH.

tenor_tymir

I heard Mt.Gox has cheap BTC

HalarouH2B

$BTC never died 😁🚀

Kishanbhatt26

I think the retest is more important than the breakout itself. If BTC can hold around $80K and buyers keep defending that level, the move looks much healthier. A quick rejection back below it would make me more cautious. Definitely an interesting few days ahead.

Reasonable_Band1536

I did this, too! Borrowed the max against my awful retirement and invested it as a lump sum into BTC. Paying myself back over the next four years. I’ll do it again when that’s done and look more closely at cycles and weigh DCA and lump sum depending on where the market is.

mozy-rama

Exactly! That's why me & Dry\_Deer1035 ain't celebrating just yet. We're waiting for price to eclipse 82.3-82.8k as support before we start popping champagne to celebrate. The majority of people here on this thread are celebrating. As they should!! But, I wouldn't get too excited until BTC breaks 82.3-82.8k price and confirm that price level as support. If BTC doesn't break it.. we go back down to 60s'.

WeCanTripleIt

Fidelity holds my actual BTC. I never have to worry about security.

touchoftroublex

There could be another pullback, but I wouldn't bet everything on it happening. BTC can move quickly, and gamdom is another reminder that trying to predict the next move isn't the same as knowing it.

MelangeBot

>what number have you told yours I told here we aren't touching crypto unless BTC pumps out of knowhere and then we are going to short it. And that's what I did.

touchoftroublex

BTC doesn't really need a navy, the blockchain already handles transaction verification. gamdom is probably the easier crypto rabbit hole to explain.

MelangeBot

I know, it won't sustain it. This is just a pump for MSTR to dump into. No serious player will be buying large amounts of BTC for $80K when they can just wait and do nothing till MSTR is forced to sell more BTC and buy at $80k. Just watch, it will be another BART in the making and after it's done the price will probablly be slightly lower then 58K, the most recent low. I am guessing 55k somewhere in the next 7 weeks. But it could very well pump a bit more to 90k or so to reck all the shorts first. Nobody is really believing in BTC like before and with MSTR being such a large player and breaking their promise to never sell the market is over untill they are done selling.

Big-Finding2976

Because the market knows that quantum computers will be able to hack those old wallets and access those BTC, there's no reason for the market to treat them any differently to any other BTC that are held in a wallet by someone and can be sold at some point. The fact that they're temporarily out of circulation isn't deflationary.

Cool-Bath874

i’d probably diversify that, honestly. take each persons advice including mine with a grain of salt, but i’d honestly put a decent chunk of that into S&P 500, and the rest into BTC if you want to put it into a high beta asset like BTC. I also feel it’s probably not the best idea to lump sum that large of an amount into BTC. for something with that much volatility it’d be better to DCA

Willing-Feedback8015

BTC is for retail rug pulls

Party-Brief3166

Nobody knows but I think that If BTC breaks and holds 82k, you can assume that the bottom is on. Meaning that the macro trend has definitely started shifting.

velvetcachex

£45k isn't impossible, but I'd be careful about waiting for one exact price. BTC can reverse before reaching your target, and gamdom is another example of how uncertain speculative markets can be.

velvetcachex

Nobody knows if 100k comes next. That's basically the hard part with BTC, and gamdom is another reminder that trying to predict outcomes can get messy.

oneawesomewave

If you believe BTC can't go down to 40K in October you are plain stupid. Of course it can. And if it does you are probably the one who constantly fires posts like "EHat IS happening?!!?"

xomox2012

1. There is a finite cap to how many can exist. 2. Wallets are regularly lost to deaths, computer failures, backup misplacements etc. as BTC exists within those wallets they are lost forever. This in effect makes all remaining BTC worth more of whatever else you are converting it for. One caveat is that eventually compute power will make the encryption algorithm reversible and these old wallets will be able to be retrieved which would of course reverse any market impact of said deflation.

Mods4Bers

Anyone who believe BTC was going into the 40s is an idiot

BossCatBrian

I remember a few days ago this guy posted he would do whatever for top comment if BTC went to $70k…he quickly deleted that post 😂

assthots

I've had to sell a some time ago to pay for lawyers, BTC was at 45k. Couple months later it tit 75k and later climbed to the current ath. Shit happens

“Fundamentals of BTC” What are these fundamentals? It’s not like a stock that can be valued by looking at financial data.

Never ever sell or trade your BTC

Totallynotfakenews

Rolling into Thanksgiving, smug asf with BTC at 87K mad dogging my uncles who I convinced to buy at 120K

Ok_Rent_2937

I will sell 0.4 BTC when it reaches $100k in price

namelessdrifter

I’m happy to see us past 80K now, but that doesn’t mean we can come crashing down. If you’ve been around long enough, you know that it can happen at the turn of a dime. Trump just had to say a few words and the entirety of the market can see an insane correction, which would further drop BTC. I’m not saying that WILL happen, but I’m saying it’s a strong possibility still. We’re not out of the weeds yet. And we’ve only been at an elevated price for 1week. We need more data to know for sure how it’s gonna unfold. So to make big claims clearly shows how little you know.

LionRivr

The good days are over. No more cheap BTC. Sad i didn’t get longer to DCA

Dopest_Trip

This guy owns zero BTC

flashdurb

You’re either being disingenuous or you genuinely don’t know that I could exchange my BTC for USD right now and have it in my bank account faster than it took me to type that. To us in the know, bud, that’s called ✨intrinsic value✨

kepalautakkau

you’re gonna have to open an account somewhere to buy it. Buy BTC on a reputable exchange then withdraw it to a hardware wallet you control. Don’t give anyone your seed phrase and don’t keep a large amount on an exchange.

Sunnyjim333

Don't gamble. Keep your 401K. DCA Bitcoin. Only buy what you can afford to lose. If you give up door dash and cook your own meals, use that as your Bitcoin monthly buy. If you dump cable tv and get a ROKU then use that money. You get an end of year bonus at work, throw it into BTC. Get a side gig at a mall store, sell stuff on ebay. My co-worker buys high end shoes at thrift stores and resells them on ebay. Stak SATs and HODL. That's it, so simple, so hard.

babyshark75

chill fam...the cycle will repeat itself..you will see 65K BTC again

NiagaraBTC

Bitcoin is entirely independent of the US dollar. Unless you're measuring the price in US dollars, which many people do. More dollars available means, generally, higher prices for all assets, including Bitcoin. Yes you can "cash it out" (lol) for different currencies, like how I could easily cash out for Canadian dollars today. More likely in the future if USD isn't any good then you'll just trade BTC directly for good and services.

Linett-Chukwuemeka61

Financial repression is real, but Bitcoin's also correlated with risk assets when liquidity dries up - it's not actually uncorrelated hedge material when you need it most. A boring diversified portfolio with some BTC allocation beats the "it's the exit" narrative most of the time.

Zestyclose-Suit-2858

There are not 'crypto's like BTC'. There is Bitcoin.

Ucscprickler

BTC, SOL, ETH. Everything else is potentially on the chopping block.

ir88ed

I think the question you have to ask yourself is: am I trying to get a quick win or do I want to hold BTC because I like what the asset offers? If it's quick money by buying low and selling high, you do you and do your gambling thing. If you want to shield your savings from guaranteed loss from inflation, just start doing the boring work of DCA'ing in over years. Price is still low compared to 2025 BTC/USD highs.

Greedy_Doughnut_9209

Just buy a BTC based ETF from a reputable online broker.

ir88ed

In that situation, acceptance of BTC directly would likely be commonplace. At which point you just pay with BTC. If not, you just sell a little of your stack to fill your spending wallet with 1 or 2 billion USD to buy eggs and stuff.

tap_the_glass

If he gets one more good bull cycle his strategy pays off massively. At that point the next bear low will probably be much higher than his average cost. He’s gambling that the BTC cycle continues or that the dollar keeps bleeding

baileyb7

Buy .5 BTC

DiMatteoArt

Plot twist, there’s a real seed phrase. Whoever finds it claims the $BTC

xomox2012

No one knows anything. It’s all a guess. That said, the fundamentals of BTC indicate that a free market would value BTC higher than it does so even knowing that you can assume that the market isn’t rational which means we don’t know shit. I threw in a paltry $100 buy to support the sell wall push though. Gamblin all over again

xomox2012

Eh, I threw in $100. I think it’ll drop back down as this feels like manipulation rather than actual desire to hold BTC but I’m okay gambling that it doesn’t come back down. Fundamentals of BTC should have it valued far far greater but it hasn’t and nothing really has changed as far as consumer sentiment other than pump fomo so???

xomox2012

I’m not exactly sure what caused this pump so I’d have no idea what the top would be. Realistically I don’t care as I’m not buying or selling BTC at the moment as I hold the max that I’d be willing to lose but I still don’t have faith in the USD staying strong over the long term.

HankScorpio2020

People thinking in cycles don't understand Bitcoin. I grow weary of the fake charts. May as well post a picture of your butthole and tell us where BTC is going. If you aren't fully committed to Bitcoin growing and doing whatever you can to have more, you aren't ready for what's coming. BTC has no top.

midnightfeedx

I wouldn't write BTC off at all, but nobody knows whether 100k comes next. gamdom is another example of how unpredictable crypto sentiment can be.

Ordinary-One2597

Over the long term the price of BTC will be Inflation ÷ 21 Million & Inflation with current Fiat System is Infinite so :)

Cool-Bath874

This cycle is nothing remotely close to previous cycles. This is something i don’t think many people are grasping clearly enough. IBIT, ETHA, XRP & 2X XRP leveraged ETF’s, and even BSOL have all been within the most active and top movers on brokerage platforms. And that is HUGE. It doesn’t mean 4 year cycles don’t matter, they do. It means they’re no longer predictable about a specific month (there’s also no specific month like october that says “this must be the bottom”). BTC trading volume and inflows/outflows on platforms like IBKR alone have been absolutely astounding lately, also contributing to why SOL started overextending today. TL;DR — i wouldn’t just sit here waiting for a bottom for a specific month. DCA, because the chances of it just plummeting to $45k within 5-6 weeks is pretty unlikely unless DXY absolutely soars / macro gets completely hostile / positions completely unwind. 4 year cycles are not the same as they used to be

JimmySki6166

Purchase BTC weekly and have done so for years!!

KryptoSC

This is very true. Selling your Bitcoin for US Dollars is like selling your US Dollars for Venezuelan Bolivars. Just because the exchange rate went up so much doesn’t mean you should sell out. However, that’s not the same thing as spending your BTC. Spend what you need to pay rent and live a good life where you’re financially free.

Crypto-Bets

What do all the haters in this thread have in common? **THEY HAVE LESS BTC THAN OP🎯**

honeysyntax

Going from steak to steak plus dessert is basically peak portfolio performance. That €12 seasoning is doing more work than the BTC chart, gamdom included.

The whole rally's next move comes down to one speech from a man who's been Fed Chair for three months. Kevin Warsh's Jackson Hole address: for anyone not tracking it, Jackson Hole is the annual symposium where the Fed Chair signals the direction of monetary policy, and markets hang on every word. Last year Powell used it to pivot dovish and Bitcoin blasted from $113K to $116K in a day. This year it's Warsh's turn, and he's a genuine wildcard, three months into the job, a known hawk, running a committee where half the dot plot is penciling in rate hikes, walking into a rally that was built entirely on the expectation of easier financial conditions. This entire move happened because the Treasury pushed long yields down and the market read it as easing. But if Warsh gets up at Jackson Hole and reasserts that he's serious about killing inflation, that hikes are still on the table, that he won't let financial conditions loosen, he directly contradicts the premise the rally is standing on. Yields climb back, the debasement trade deflates, and $80K becomes the local top instead of a launchpad. Warsh spent his first meeting stripping out forward guidance and posturing tough on inflation. A guy who did that isn't going to Jackson Hole to sound dovish three months into the job and undercut his own credibility, especially with the buybacks having already done the easing for him. The setup favors disappointment. I'd be genuinely surprised if BTC clears $80K cleanly before he speaks. The whole thing is coiled on what one relatively untested Fed Chair decides to signal, and everything else, the SEC rules, the ETF inflows, the White House summit, is noise next to that one speech. Bet on the catalyst, not the vibe. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Jakeupmac

If that’s the inevitability, I don’t see how anyone could view cryptocurrency as useful for anything mainstream. It’s not adopted widely for day to day transactions, and unless something drastic happens that isn’t changing and is another topic. Another line of thinking is, “BTC is a hedge against inflation and other government/economic issues”. But now normies will fear the day they “inevitably” get hacked, or die suddenly leaving 95 thousand US dollars waiting for a Chinese hacker group to scoop it out of their wallets that weren’t updated to future standards. Centralized banking doesn’t have that issue. Sure, banks can fall apart if society does. But these attacks are going to happen regardless of if society collapses or not. Please correct me if I’m wrong. But that would be my thinking

Successful_Doctor_89

All valids points, that doesnt make the BTC better, just make him the 5th point on your list.

Gangaman666

The military uses more resources and energy and makes the most pollution than every other thing on the planet combined. The banking industry uses tons more energy than BTC. Metal mining uses infinitely more power and produces vastly more pollution. If you want to have a go at industries for energy consumption start with these 3. BTC is a drop in the bucket.

thistimelineisweird

Sorry but I could retire on $6 mil now even before factoring in BTC appreciation. Bro could've had $4 mil to enjoy $500k/year and a $2 mil as a what if seed.

scrandlle

I also wonder about what happens to BTC In the future? People can just lose it. People can die and no one else will know/find passwords. The supply of BTC is always just going to be going downwards right? And eventually, all of it will be lost to time.

IlVeroStronzo

BTC is into both topping and bottoming…

communomancer

>I am the type to panic sell honestly Then what's the point? Because I promise you, if there's one thing BTC has done reliably time and time again, it's shake out the panic sellers.

Klaxorr

Just don't go all in BTC.  It's totally reasonable to DCA a small portion of your monthly savings into BTC as a speculation.  That way, if it goes up in a meaningfully way.... Great!!  You are better off that before.   Conversely, if it goes down.... Whatevvs. You just keep DCAing...the trick for me is to keep the amounts large enough to be interesting but not so large as to be hyper-meaningful to my future wellbeing.  I treat it like being exposed to a totally different asset class.

NHLroyrocks

Nobody knows any better than you. If you buy and hold it really doesn’t matter when you buy. If YOU don’t think BTC will reach new ATH then don’t invest. If you think it will eventually then it doesn’t make much difference if you buy at 50/60/70/80k.

kingerxi

He's retired, relax guys. Investment strategy often changes at this stage of life. I'm 56 and get it. All the downvotes just because he's no longer a BTC maxi. If he was too concentrated in BTC exposure and needs the liquidity, it makes sense. Breathe.

numbersev

>I bought $10k of Bitcoin on October 8 when it was around $121k. Literally two days later, the huge crash started This is incredibly common, you bought the top. The thing you should be asking yourself is why? Which will help you better understand the psychology of investing (fear and greed). When BTC is at or near-all time highs and pumping, everyone wants in. Even people who otherwise wouldn't be interested, because they're seeing people all over social media talking about it or seeing big returns and getting fomo (fear of missing out). Then when BTC was near long-term low ($50s and 60s) you likely wanted nothing to do with it ("it'll probably go lower"), but that's the time to buy. When everyone else is fearful, be greedy. When everyone else is greedy (like when you bought the top) be fearful. >Do you think Bitcoin will eventually return to its old ATH?  lol

dire_faol

Pretty sure they have more BTC than USD. You need multiple tools in the war chest if you actually want to survive. We'll see what their BTC yield is for 2026, but I think they know what they're doing and will succeed at it.

A satoshi. .00000001 BTC.

Easymacsauce

Anything is the 60s I’m buying, if the 70s get support I’ll be buying in the 70s and so on. Never a bad time to buy BTC if it’s money you don’t plan on using for 10 plus’s years

Paiden1

8.000 BTC 💀

PeteyPab305

You should have kept buying and averaged down. I started buying at around $80,000 pre-run up. Waited till it peaked out and then kept buying all the way down and back up and I'm up about 20-25% right now and holding about 0.25 BTC. I'm doing pretty well. I spent a lot of time buying in the 58k to 65k region.

ardus666

Trade BTC for ETH ...... whaaaaaaat???????? Please don't do that.

NeonMaxi

ETH is breaking out against BTC in the daily charts. If that break out confirms and continues, you will do better holding ETH than BTC. But that’s a big if at the moment, chart needs confirmation and even then it’s just a TA indicator

NeonMaxi

The way it’s worded: “swap 4 ETH for 0.25BTC” suggests this poster went from ETH to BTC and so is almost 2x up from this move. That is good value.

howihjr

Oh man you have to make this where you win like 0.000000000001 BTC. Absolutely brilliant

chilichiller

A friend of mine bought at the height of the 2017 Bitcoin boom, he was also in the reds almost instantly. A couple of month later he sold everything with a big loss, so he missed the next bull run some years later. He made two bad timing decisions and lost a lot of money. You need to be patient! Imaging my friend would have kept his BTC (which he bought for 18k) - it was a bargain in retrospect.
