Watching the 30-year yield more than the BTC chart this week. It hit its highest since 2004 yesterday and BTC slid straight back under 84k. Until yields cool off I think we just chop around here.
All season will be incredibly diluted and minimal again except for the solid projects. Things like pump, fun diluted liquidity, and all those people who rug pull through those all coins will trade back into Ethereum, BTC, USDC or USDT. I have a lot of SUI
Because if you look at certain bull market indicators u will see BTC is already above most of them why are you sideliners so slow and weird with this stuff, just means as per usual you people miss out on the initial pump and end up fomoing in later
i think the biggest question is what happens if BTC suddenly drops 20–30%, not whether borrowing looks smart while it’s going up. That’s what made Arch Lending interesting to me. The BTC is held with Anchorage, they say it isn’t rehypothecated, and liquidations can be partial instead of automatically closing the entire position. If I was borrowing against BTC, I’d probably care more about those details and keeping the LTV conservative than trying to predict where Bitcoin goes next.
i feel there is a complex pullback gping on but then again, i said that 2 days ago and the support at 84k holds still. That's why it is called complex i guess. But my feel is being supported because BTC also got rejected at 84.3k multiple times so it will be interesting today what is going to happen. My humble analyses says we will either stay here for the weekend or we will slowly head back to 79k.
You've got the accumulating and HODLing part... the bit people often forget is having a plan for what happens next! 😄 That's actually why I built [https://bitcoinlifespan.com](https://bitcoinlifespan.com) ... you can play around with stacking, HODLing and eventually withdrawing BTC to see how different scenarios might work out.
Some good advice here but a lot of people romanticize buying the dip and stacking sats, at some point you’ll need money to live off of if a significant portion of your wealth is in BTC. You can either stack sats responsibly forever but will have to live with the reduced income forever until these price targets, or stack sats at certain price targets as we go lower then layer out as we go back up. I personally have a never touch/never go below amount and a trading amount that I do this with.
None. I stick with my usual portfolio: BTC, eth, XRP and ADA. And I did bet for VELO, so I'll hold it until moon or dust (or a better investment comes by)
I do the exact same thing, havn't had to sell much yet, and started doing it at what seems like a great time. Have accumulated 0.026BTC since June, average price of 64k.
Have acquired 0.00328898 BTC so far
I would had 1% payed in BTC ! Mining without mining XD
It is the same with a cold wallet, you only get the keys. No BTC are ever in your cold wallet
the 8, with how far ahead of holding they were per year: volatility adjusted momentum across coins (+29 points), VWMA cross (+23), a BTC dominance trend signal for rotating into alts (+13), a 20 day donchian breakout on BTC (+13), inverse volatility risk parity across the majors (+3), volatility targeting on a trend signal (+3), turtle 20/55 breakout (+2) and a kalman filter trend (+1). none of them were significant, best p about 0.24
Yeah I didn’t think there was anything wrong with the way you asked the question. Since the question asked what % of a BTC and the original comment said 1. That’s why I double checked what they meant.
This is exactly the kind of question that made me build the Bitcoin Lifespan Simulator… rather than guessing what 0.2, 0.5 or 1 BTC might mean in 20 years, you can play with different growth scenarios and see for yourself: https://bitcoinlifespan.com
BTC, public ledger for anyone and everyone to verify anything and everything.
Im coming up for retirement soon. I want to supplement just a bit. Im going to begin monthly withdrawls of 0.00333 of one coin - which will go for 25 years. The rest can sit for my estate. If over those 25 years the value of BTC gets nuts, I might cap my withdrawls at just 1k or something. DCA out.
What’s your goal with holding these BTC?
VOO is basically flat since late May Yes, I'm all over the place. Honestly, don't know what to make of it all. I still know I messed up on my sale BUT I also think if anyone is FOMOing into bitcoin at 85ish might regret it I say this because the narrative from so many is that the train is going to blast off and leave you behind! You need to hurry! BTC to 1 million by next year, etc
In 20 years 1 btc will be probably worth around 5-10 million i guess. Lets say 7 million. So 0.15 BTC is the amount that would be life changing for me Because my Personal goal is a million. With a million.. or even less For example 700-900K You could For example put it in an etf.. like this world blablabla shit And earn 7% a year. Than i‘d get much more per month out of that than what i earn in my day job currently So i could very comfortably quit my job then and live off of that money. But since germany will change the law in 2028 that it will be taxed in the future I only have this year left to buy it to have tax free btc forever. So my goal for this year is to get to 2btc. (Just to be sure you know 🤣) Maybe i‘ll just make it to 1-1.5 But even then i should be fine.
There are three times for BTC- 1) normal times. DCA 2) It feels really, really low. Throw in extra 3) it feels really, really high. Sell some The mistake people make is not realizing time 1 is like 90%+ of the time
Honestly, the more time pass the more BTC become resilient, this bear market BTC price went down only -53%, in 2021 that was -77% in 2018 that was -83% and the first bear market in 2013 -86% So I believe in the future BTC might be a lot more resilient holding will still be a good strategy but if you plan on trying to know the good time to sell, then you should probably start learning technical analysis, and also risk management. I would recommend to learn enough to do your own analysis rather than trusting any stranger on the web: everyone fail at predicting at some points anyways, but some fail less often then others.
How did your plan fail if you still have your BTC? Just hodl and stop trying to be so clever
Can you prove this is a hack? They are all valid BTC transactions.
Your plans are your plans. BTC has other plans.
I’m really glad you had the guts to admit this, but this is genuinely why it’s so important to find that middle ground. Hell, I’d be stoked to buy BTC at $65k. If I see a near -50% drawdown, with this deep of liquidity as we have now, then it does not matter to me if it continues to go lower, that’s what saving some dry powder is for
Post is by: Bcom_Mod and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/bitcoin_com/comments/1wpj7mq/the_fouryear_cycle_says_bitcoins_final_bottom/ Layah Heilpern pointed out that BTC peaked on October 6, 2025, right on the four-year schedule. Past bottoms arrived 12 to 13 months after the peak: about 406 days in the 2013 cycle, 364 in 2017, 376 in 2021. Run that forward and the final low lands between early October and mid-November. Her line: "it's not over until it's over." [PlanB is sketching the opposite](https://news.bitcoin.com/price-predictions/bitcoin-price-drops-below-85k-as-planb-maps-october-path-to-100k/). His path has BTC at $100,000 in October, above the $126,000 record before Christmas, and past $232,000 in 2027 or 2028. He called it "food for thought," not a prediction, which is a sensible hedge from the author of stock-to-flow, the model that had Bitcoin in six figures by the end of 2021. The on-chain data leans away from the calendar. Glassnode says the four-year playbook hasn't worked for this bear. BTC sits roughly 30% below its peak, and previous downturns were more than twice as deep at the same stage. Net realized profit is running near late-2023 levels, well below what shows up at euphoric tops. Short-term holders are mostly back in profit and still aren't rushing for the exits. BTC has also reclaimed its 365-day moving average near $80,500, a level historically tied to stronger regimes. Prediction markets put the odds of $100K this year at roughly 40%. $80,500 is the line both camps are watching. Hold it through October and the "one final leg down" never shows up. Lose it on a weekly close and the cycle crowd gets its low right on schedule. The mid-$80,000s, where BTC just slipped from $86K to under $85K, has to turn into support before $100K becomes a real conversation. I'm with Glassnode on the calendar. The four-year cycle assumed retail-driven crashes of 70% or more, and this market already took its drawdown at a fraction of that depth with ETFs holding a big share of the float. I don't expect an October capitulation. I don't buy $100K by Halloween either. Going from $84K to $100K in five weeks needs a wave of fresh demand this tape hasn't shown yet. October most likely holds above $80,500 and grinds sideways, which disappoints both camps. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

I’m merely stating the reason BTC may be moving up or down based on macroeconomics, and that it’s becoming increasingly more sensitive to fluctuations in DXY, the bond market and oil futures / inflation fears (as per my original comment. The rest of what you said has literally nothing to do with anything of what I was saying, I wasn’t even saying anything about BTC itself lol.
Shhhh don't tell people. Most people think they track alongside BTC
100% of 1 BTC will be “life changing” in 30-50 years.
ETH now has spot ETF flows and a native staking yield, both new since the last cycle. Once BTC dominance cools these consolidation calls usually resolve upward, so I'd watch the flows
Borrowing keeps your BTC but a sharp wick can liquidate you at a high LTV, so most people running this on Aave stay under 30% and keep a buffer. Selling triggers a taxable event right now, which is why the borrow route gets popular every rally.
Keep it in self custody to use when you please on things that you want from people that are willing to accept it. Be in charge of your own financial journey, take responsibility and control. Or use it as collateral to get credit against it to fund your life in a dollar-dominated ecosystem. It’s your money, do what you want with it, not what anyone else tells you can or cannot do. Especially people on the internet… but while you chill, never stop educating yourself.. about history, technology, psychology, economics, what money is, what BTC is and the problems it solves by just being what it is.
if they start burning the dolar instead of printing it, it can definitely to below 70k. BTC doesn't burn its tokens, so the opposite can't happen
In my area of California, 1 million for a house is already pretty standard. It's not the median, but it's not going to get you anything close to a mansion. I still see BTC as a hedge against inflation and the erosion of the dollar, even if it doesn't act like it all the time. Being untethered to any government is a big plus.
Every cycle theres posts like these. Cant wait in a couple years when BTC trades mostly sideways so I dont have to see this trash anymore.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought Liquid is its own token. When you peg in, you lock in BTC and liquid creates a LBTC token, then when you peg out they burn the LBTC token and release the BTC from the pool
Negative IMO As fast as quantum can crack it, quantum will secure it. First quantum hacks will not be individual accounts but high value dormant accounts. By the time they are trying to snatch someone’s .05 BTC a solution will be in place. My 2¢
Remember the golden rule - time in the market - beats timing the market. In this case / the market is BTC
10 k will never be life changing money in the future... Even in 1973 my house cost approximately $30k in my area.... 10k then wasn't even life changing. Today one BTC is 65k... It still takes about 4.6 BTC in my neighborhood.... The same house as above. And even if we were going life changing means paid off house.... It still doesn't pay for the rest of your needs
Can someone please explain to me, apart from its benefits in international currency transfers and access, what the actual use cases for bitcoin are? Clearly not a debasement trade? Nothing can be purchased with bitcoin in isolation. Everything runs through its worth in USD. If the dollar were to become significantly less important, so would BTC.
That's when you start pricing everything in BTC,,,, so 0.5btc for a 4bdrm 2bath house , etc
This is a joke question correct? BTC is directly related to inflation... So even if BTC is $10,000,000.... But a house costs $40,000,000. So how can you predict this?
And now it’s almost 3 PM Pacific time and most other tokens are up a decent percent, BTC at 0.02 atm that’s nuts!
Anyone giving fiat dollar amounts has a low IQ. He said what amount of BTC. I say .8 BTC is enough for life changing money in 20 years
Damn I can’t post a pic. WEIRD!!!! Thr whole market goes down last night, comes back up this morning and look at BTC!!! Omfg I’ve never seen that before ever I don’t think .. has it really decoupled?? Could it be??
oh fuck oh fuck I have $12k on there I DO NOT usually keep it on the exchange but i was waiting to finish a BTC trade FUCK
Would need BTC to have significantly performed in 5-6 years, not next 20. Some of us aren't spring chickens and cannot hold ad infinitum. If it doesn't then hopefully my other investments and a accrued savings will cover it. I'd like to see BTC hit $400k in that time, so in 20 years maybe $2mil. That's not really life changing especially over that duration, so would probably have to own 2-4 BTC now if you want big return. Nothing is guaranteed though and it might even be zero.
I don't pay attention to those fluctuating changes of BTC price. Already proven that it might fall up to 30% and then rise up again 40%. It's not just worth to worry for every small fluctuation. If BTC should lose more than 60% of it's highest top for more than a year then it might be a signal that it's value has really been dropped down.
Love how everyone universally believes BTC will decelerate in CAGR into the future. I’m a contrarian, my analysis says the rate will accelerate - on its way to $7,000,000.
People are generally on a need-to-know basis when it comes to Bitcoin. If they’ve already done pretty well for themselves—or more likely their parents did pretty well for themselves—then these are the people least likely to understand bitcoin, because they just don’t need to. There’s absolutely no issue explaining Bitcoin to citizens of a country with >20% monetary inflation in a year to year basis. Similarly in the USA, it’s much easier to explain Bitcoin to people who actually have to adjust their budgets on a month to month basis based on the skyrocketing prices at their grocery store. The problem is that these people are often living paycheck to paycheck, so they have no real ability to save anything away into Bitcoin. In my experience, the demographic most able and willing to get orange-pilled is the professional class. High income, the more humble the beginnings the better because their poorer parents might have instilled in them the idea of savings over investment. In the past 60yrs, savings was a horribly bad idea compared to investment, because whatever money you squirreled away just had its purchasing power debased to high hell. Now, with BTC we have a chance to beat the investors in terms of risk adjusted returns.
What can 3 BTC mean in 5 to 10 years? Nobody knows but this is suppose to be a good stack imo.
Congrats! I got to a but over 1 BTC and then stopped DCAing. I just feel that its enough upside exposure for me
that's what i read to, one of their graphics literally says "L1" then the arrow points to "Shielded layer"... like okay, that would be a layer 2. I don't even want private BTC anyways, I think overall that would actually go against what it was meant to be.
I've asked this of my personal LLM before and it protests that AI server racks are not a particularly efficient way to mine BTC -- but it might just be arguing for its own survival.
1 full coin might be $1M by then. So I guess around 5 BTC will be life changing / FU money by 2046.
Halvings... cutting the reward in half everything 4ish years and younger people being more likely to purchase BTC than gold.
These guys act like they can't pull up the past decade worth or info/charts on BTC... if they did their view would change,.. and no I don't know the future... but hell, what more do they want? BTC is like free money ..IF YOU HODL.
I’d sell a small piece before borrowing against it tbh. Low LTV sounds safe until BTC dumps fast and suddenly you’re managing collateral at the worst possible time.
Rising BTC dominance while alts are struggling tells me way more than trying to call “alt season” every time BTC chills for a few days
If I have 50 BTC at 1 million each, I have no issue whatsoever with a 20€ (in my case) bread. Sourdough already is at 8-10€ per kg in the more fancy places in my area. And people are buying it without 50m in net worth. So I think your proportions are a bit off.
Exactly. I'll just make sure I sell relatively early. BTC hasn't even made highs yet. VCs are saying ZEC to $10k. I can definitely get out before that.
Love your answer and I am late to BTC. This would be life changing.
Makes sense because 2017 was the last time your shitcoin had a shred of value compared to BTC
Lmao. Replying to a 90-day old comment just so that you can point to $70, a price is was at in late 2017 (9 fucking years ago), a price still 13% down from its price one year ago, more than 100% down from Dec 21, almost 500% down from May 21 highs, and despite the upward market where EVERYTHING rises, STILL downtrending against BTC on the yearly chart. You absolute LTC cuck 😂
The claim was that there is no reason to buy altcoins in a bull market because BTC has previously outperformed them. This is demonstrably false. In the long run would I trust ALGO over BTC? no of course not. Or any other coin. But they present opportunities for higher profit % in a bull market.
In 20 years ? With inflation? 3 full BTC
[Bitcoin.org](http://Bitcoin.org) itself isn’t actually selling you the BTC — its Buy Bitcoin page uses a third-party provider (MoonPay). I’d check the order status there first, then look up the transaction ID on a block explorer. If there’s no transaction ID yet, the BTC probably hasn’t been sent to the network at all.
The range of "life changing" is so big it renders your question irrelevant. Forget BTC, just pick a number... $50,000? Life-changing money for some people, and a bad 20 minutes at the blackjack table for others. You can pick any number and that'll be the case.
You're pretty delusional if you think less than 10 BTC will bring you real wealth
"My BTC position has been made already and I'm looking for a small alt coin position. " So you are going to through all your BTC gains away on shit coins?
.21 BTC today will outperform 200k in the sp500 today over a 20 year span but aim for 1 coin
It's actually a lot more than just a cryptocurrency, it's essentially the first ever decentralized "world computer". BTC is a decentralized ledger specifically for currency and currency only. ETH includes currency but it's way more than that.
People don't often think critically when responding to such questions. Firstly you pointed out the obvious: it is highly subjective what 'life changing' means from one person to the next. I know literal multimillionaires, and I also know a woman living in the Philippines making $200pm. She is so 'poor' she couldn't even afford to celebrate her only child's birthday last week. So inevitably it depends on one's circumstance. Even if Bitcoin goes to $5m per coin in \~20 years, you could argue for a 'westerner', 0.10 BTC would still be significant, as then their holding is $500k. The obvious problem? in 20 years, the median price for a house in the US could be $1m (double what it is today). I think anyone serious about holding BTC should simply aim to obtain as much as they can and hold it for as long as they can. I truly do believe it's still a binary outcome for Bitcoin: it is either slow trending to effectively zero real world value, or slowly going up against fiat, forever.
I chill on the BTC I bought in 2013 😉
I'm going to go with 100% of BTC will be life changing in 20 years.
Hey! The part I would not reduce to “sell or borrow” is the time horizon. Selling fixes the outcome today, while a Bitcoin-backed loan keeps the position exposed to every drawdown until it is repaid. At CoinRabbit, we see the starting LTV as only the first number. The liquidation threshold, how quickly collateral can be added, whether the BTC is rehypothecated and the total cost over the intended term matter together. If the plan only works while Bitcoin keeps rallying, the buffer is probably too thin.
This and the fact that it's even being talked about on the mainstream news should make you very cautious. Literally every crypto youtuber is going on about how the bear market is over and that we are going to 100k before the end of the year. Mainstream news talks about how BTC is pumping hard, etc. This is all happening when we are near extreme greed in the market with RSI hitting a lower high and with prices kind of stagnating here. I'm totally fine if it continues to pump and go crazy, I just would be very cautious with making any big purchases here. I wouldn't be too surprised to see one big sell off to shake these people out before we really start getting into the bull market. This should all become apparent within the next 1-2 months.
I could imagine a 0.5-1 BTC or something like that
No 50 BTC now you are super rich, 50 BTC 20 years from now you will be at least as rich as you are today regardless of fiat inflation, same rule applies to 1 BTC today, inflation does not mean you need more btc in the future to become as rich as you are with the same amount of btc today
Unless we do away with fiat and work in BTC only. Otherwise our BTC might be worth stupid amounts of fiat but if fiat is hyper inflated it doesn't matter
You open a Fidelity Crypto account and then transfer in the BTC the same way you would to any other wallet
Look at the all time chart and tell me if this meme makes any sense? BTC has been going up only for over a decade. The fact that it behaves as a currency during consolidation periods is not really a bad thing.
Strike.me is the cheapest legit place to buy BTC
Post is by: Embarrassed-Ad-7032 and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1wp3tyi/i_backtested_75_crypto_trading_strategies_against/ this is the crypto slice of a bigger project testing trading strategies against buy and hold. data is from binance, mid 2017 to march 2025, daily and hourly depending on the strategy, on BTC and a basket of the bigger alts. trading costs of about 0.1% a side get charged on every trade. the benchmark is just holding the same coins over the same period. what got tested: trend following (MA crosses, donchian breakouts), mean reversion, volatility breakouts, momentum across coins, funding rate / carry trades, a few ML classifiers, calendar stuff like the weekend effect and turn of the month, and a batch of the setups that do the rounds on crypto twitter and youtube (pivot bounces, VWMA crosses and so on). results: 8 of 75 beat holding after costs. none of those 8 was statistically significant, the best p value was about 0.24, so not far off a coin flip. the median strategy trailed holding by about 52 percentage points a year. crypto went up so much over this window that being out of the market even part of the time hurt a lot. i reran 67 of them with zero fees and zero slippage and 59 still lost. so it isn't the exchange fees eating you, the signals just didn't beat holding. splitting the window in half, only 2 of the 75 were ahead of holding in both halves. the worst ones were the most active. an hourly random forest direction classifier and an hourly volatility expansion trigger both trailed holding by more than 150 points a year, and daily pivot point bounces weren't far behind. the best two raw results were volatility adjusted momentum across coins and a VWMA cross, about 29 and 23 points a year ahead. both would look great in a screenshot and neither could be told apart from luck (p around 0.24 each). i'm not saying nobody makes money trading crypto. but for the kind of rules you can find written down, holding beat almost everything, and the few that beat holding didn't do it by enough to trust. if someone's selling you a crypto strategy off a backtest, ask how many versions they tried and whether it still wins with fees set to zero. happy to answer questions on the method in the comments *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

To time the market (be it BTC or securities) you have to be right -- twice. Lesson (hopefully) learned.
BTC finally moved and now I’m pretending I knew this was gonna happen 😂
BTC fuck all that other noise
I gave half of my seed phrase to each of my kids. It's on them now. (One of them used to hold BTC, so knows how to do it.)
Post is by: LonelyBeautiful1380 and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1wp0k0o/selling_bitcoin_vs_borrowing_against_it_during_a/ BTC moving up again has put me in a weird spot. I need some liquidity, but selling Bitcoin right now feels like the exact thing I might regret if the run continues. So I’ve been looking at the other option: borrowing against the BTC instead of selling it. I understand the obvious downside is liquidation risk if Bitcoin drops hard, but if you keep the LTV relatively low, does a Bitcoin-backed loan actually make more sense? I’ve been looking at Arch Lending and a few other options, and the things that seem to matter most are custody, whether the BTC gets rehypothecated, liquidation rules, and how much time you get to add collateral. Curious how people here think about this. If you needed cash today, would you sell some BTC or borrow against it? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

> real cryptocurrencies that are mined using proof of work like BTC, BCH, SOL, etc one of these is not like the others.
People open shorts and longs in bull and bear markets. Just read patterns and you will win most of them. Right now, BTC is trending down. 3rd daily red candle.
Currently BTC is viewed as another risky investment, affected by macro economy. It is not viewed as a hedge against government intervention (or some extend, socialism).
