BTC

You don’t want people to DM you. Is safer in public. Depending on where you live you can use different exchanges (websites where you can exchange your currency for BTC). You can also check the sub r/Bitcoinbeginners

LibertyWithLiquidity

We will witness a time where BTC goes from $1M to $1.4M in a matter of months & everyone will scramble to secure a few sats. Save yourself the hassle & stack now.

How much did the BTC cost at the moment you bought it?

indomitus1

Look up BTC sessions on youtube. A ton of tutorials

Worldline_AI

It's a risk asset, the BTC maxi made sure of that during the blocksize wars. They killed the medium of exchange part, and with it, any infra for it, without which, it has indeed no utility, and the SoV narrative becomes just that, a narrative.

AngrilyShaky

I'm still choosing to hodl, but I do not see an issue in buying now too. BTC will slowly recover imo.

Equivalent_Menu_1096

Honestamente, llevo años en esto y el dilema de valoración de BTC me sigue pareciendo fascinante. Al final, estás pagando por seguridad y descentralización, pero también por la narrativa de ser "el primero". El problema es que cuando miras métricas como el hash rate o las direcciones activas, no siempre se traduce en precio. Recuerdo haber comprado en 2019 pensando que el halving lo dispararía, y el mercado me recordó que la paciencia es clave.

Equivalent_Menu_1096

Honestly, the yield part is what’s interesting to me. If they’re wrapping BTC into something that generates yield, it’s probably through lending or staking derivatives, which could get messy with custodial risk. I’m curious how they’ll handle the tax implications for holders—like, are we talking dividends or just rebalancing? Feels like a way to attract old-school investors who want passive income without dealing with DeFi.

The connection is apparently: inflation up, means FED will have to increase rates to lower inflation, increased rates means competition from interest paying products (bonds) for no interest assets like gold and BTC.

Ced-Invest

Honest answer, the same thing gold was useful for, which is nothing except staying scarce while everything else got printed. That was enough for 5,000 years. The difference isn't usefulness, it's who holds it. Gold's base is central banks and people who never sell. BTC's base right now is ETF allocators who trim it the second rates reprice. Hype flows somewhere else, sure, but that's a holder problem, not an asset problem.

Ced-Invest

Fair catch on gold, I wrote that line lazily. It's 25% off the January top and near 7-month lows, so yeah, nothing is hedging at these real yields. But that actually sharpens the point. Gold is down 25% from its top, BTC is down 50% from its top, on the same rate repricing. Same trade, double the beta. That gap is the whole story to me. Agree something has to break first. Question is whether BTC front-runs the break or just follows it with leverage.

spottyPotty

I noped out after a couple of paragraphs. Too long and repetitive. I'm no Bitcoin maxi however I have a couple of thoughts. You are comparing trading BTC with trading stocks, when you should be comparing it to trading Forex. It is a currency after all. To answer your question, I would say that most people trade because they believe that the value of their asset will increase. The small number of people who are into crypto out of principle (and who understand and agree with Satoshi's motivation for creating it in the first place), would have recognised that BTC was finished the moment development was hijacked, and would have moved on to other coins that still follow those original principles. The fact that BTC continues to dominate price wise is proof that the majority of people do not care for the principles and philosophy of cryptocurrencies and are mainly speculators.

Too late for that, Wall St has BTC by the balls. We asked for adoption, this is what it looks like. It'll always be a high risk speculative asset that dumps when NASDAQ dumps and is confused when NASDAQ pumps.

SirArthurPT

ChatGPT missed the point, you are **not** paying 80.000 for a Bitcoin, Bitcoin isn't a thing or a service and you can only pay for goods and services. Likewise you are not paying for Euros, Yuan or whatever else currency. You're **converting** from USD at that exchange rate. So, whatever BTC/USD pair is it represents an **exchange rate**, not a price.

piggleii

I don't even know what I should say. 'Cause I'm an idiot, a loser, BTC abuser.

BioFrosted

Well technically, it's more transparent that anonymous. It's only anonymous in so far ownership can't be deduced only from a wallet, right? But if you send coins from an exchange, or get your coins back on ramp to sell them, that becomes tied to your identity. You would need a trusted middleman to sell your BTC for you. In which case, they'd transfer money into your account, essentially revealing your identity again. Transparency, now, that's undisputed.

Far-Photograph-2342

I'd argue this isn't as clean a test as it seems. Bitcoin has never consistently behaved like gold during short-term geopolitical shocks. In periods of acute stress, investors usually sell what they can, not necessarily what they want to own long term. That's why you often see cash, Treasuries, and gold benefit first. What's more interesting is whether Bitcoin can preserve purchasing power over a multi-year period of inflation and currency debasement, not whether it rallies the same week CPI surprises to the upside. That said, I do agree that the ETF era has changed the ownership base. When a large share of buyers treat BTC as a risk asset, it's going to trade like one. The real question is whether that changes over time as adoption and use cases continue to expand.

MarioWilson122

That’s a more reasonable take, but I still think it’s too broad. If the argument is that most crypto is empty promises, pump and dump, and greater-fool speculation, I’d mostly agree. A lot of it is exactly that. The part I disagree with is applying that to crypto as a whole, especially BTC. Bitcoin has already survived countless cycles of people calling it dead, useless, toxic, or finished. The scams and trash projects usually get wiped out, but the strongest assets keep surviving. So if your point is that weak crypto projects get exposed and disappear, fair. That happens every cycle. If your point is that Trump makes the entire space infeasible, especially BTC, I don’t buy that. Whatever has a real foundation will remain, which is basically the point.

Kawazor

Use Mt Pelerin, you can buy BTC directly on your cold wallet in a single transaction, without having to deposit and withdraw. The first 500 are fully free, up to 1k free if someone invites you.

ensui67

Maybe so. Or maybe this is the spot where BTC digs and rips higher. This is the make it or break it spot. Old highs from 2021. Is also the spot where it broke out in 2024. Critical area. Good risk/reward entry level here. Buy now with a tight stop, and if it doesn’t hold, sell. Easy peasy

FalconLeading

I don't think your wrong, BTC hasn't really become digital gold as expected. But at the same time, nothing about its price action is that surprising when you consider the cycle picture. It's at the bottom of its 4-year cycle.

Sparks_H

Apparently, some drunkard lost a lot of money on BTC.

Psilonemo

But gold is selling off. That means the market is anticipating delayed rate cuts, or freezes, or even rate hikes. BTC will rise only when there is a truly risk-on environment or lowered rates. Something has to break first.

ActualTangerine2583

Hmm is it? I think we may see more downturns. One or multiple, depends on how other global events influence BTC. If we see Iran ground invasion boom downtrend, if we get past oil reserves another leg down, stock market correction is happening right in front of our eyes and all of those huge IPOs this year may ends up disaster as well

Parraddiddle

Okay so I just took out a BTC backed loan on Coinbase with 3 BTC as collateral then bought 1 BTC on another exchange and transferred the 1 BTC back to Coinbase and now have 4 BTC as collateral for a $60,000 loan, the terms are to pay back whenever and there is no minimum payments, so ideally I could wait for let’s hypothetically say $200,000 BTC and pay back in full plus interest on the original $60,000 loan. The risk is that BTC goes below around $18,000 and I would be liquidated. This is worst case scenario and I don’t think we will get close. I will also be transferring around $20,000 to Coinbase for a safety net in the event we get close to the liquidation point, in this case I can either pay down the loan or just add more collateral by buying more BTC at a lower price.

When inflation comes back, when governments lose control, when there's conflict over real resources, you'll want a hard asset outside the system. Yesterday we got the full scenario. May CPI at 4.2% year over year, first time above 4% in three years. Oil at $91 after touching $95, because Iran closed the most important chokepoint on the planet. Missiles hitting US military facilities. The Dow dropped 900 points. And bitcoin? Dipped under $61K during the print, bounced to around $63K, still down roughly half from the October top and about 11% on the year. Meanwhile gold sits near its all time high. Spot ETFs have bled $5.5B over 13 straight sessions. I keep coming back to the same uncomfortable read. The marginal buyer of bitcoin today is an ETF allocator who books it in the risk-asset sleeve of a portfolio, right next to Nasdaq beta. When rates reprice higher and equities sell off, that allocator trims the whole sleeve. The asset can't trade as a hedge when its ownership base treats it as leverage on liquidity conditions. The store-of-value bid clearly exists right now. It's just going into gold. I'm not saying the thesis is dead forever. Ownership bases change. But this stretch is the cleanest natural experiment the inflation hedge narrative has ever faced, and so far it's failing it on every axis that matters. What would actually have to change for BTC to trade like a hedge again? Different holders, a different macro regime, or was the hedge story always just narrative on top of a liquidity asset? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Nah, no way. You really think Trump is what finally kills crypto? BTC has survived exchange collapses, scams, frauds, bans, crashes, and countless "this is the end" moments. Unless you think Trump is somehow worse than all of those combined, I don't see it. I'm thinking you might say he is though lol.

What are crazy fees? I used BTC atm for cash swaps but since start of the year they require KYC for any ammount of cash, so this option is not viable anymore. I used to pay around 7% in fees using atm. 

SaeedOrkz

Man, I appreciate you taking the time — this is gold. The ETF point hit. I hadn't fully processed how much institutional flow changes the game. DCA into BTC while I relearn the landscape makes total sense. I'll park the alt temptation for now. On appetite — I want to actively trade eventually, but I'm honest enough to admit I'm rusty. So phase one is rebuild knowledge and discipline. Phase two is active trading with proper risk management. Quick question if you don't mind — which on-chain tools or dashboards do you consider essential these days? The tooling landscape has changed so much.

Adorable_Ms_G

A lot has changed, but the biggest lesson hasn't: risk management beats chasing profits. Focus on BTC/ETH first, keep position sizes small, and spend a few weeks observing before increasing exposure. The traders who survive long-term are usually the ones who protect capital during uncertain periods. You must check DCA also for low risk tolerance.

Already happening.  The miners tracked down all the easy access power over the last decade and now many are pivoting due to the increased revenue potential.   Look at the BTC difficulty trend over the last 6 months.

If it takes that long, then it's never getting there at all.

I'm not sure if you time traveled, but BTC was far less than $62,000 at the beginning of 2024 and rose up into the $70K range in mid-to-late 2024.

You're worried about price when trying to recover hundreds of BTC? I would be thinking of the price of losing access to them by doing something incorrectly and losing the data.

While I think BTC is going to go far higher from here I think that ship has sailed awhile ago for creating wealth. I think big returns are still very possible with the right small caps and patience.

How much BTC does she have?

TripTryad

Ehh, I once had just shy of maybe 3k BNB tokens back in late 2017 shortly after Binance launched and BNB crashed to about .80c. I sold a little over 2k of them, but if you look at where it went, I would have been better off holding it until it hit 650 or so in the next bull market. That being said, what I sold back then I put into LINK/ADA/BTC and unfortunately LTC (which was a bust basically). So I still came out waaaay ahead and it became the foundation to where I am now, so Happy Ending, lol. Still grinding though. I love this space, and finance in general is my hobby. 🥂

BTC doesn’t follow traditional basic economics..

MarkLuther123

So your position went from “BTC is fine” to “BTC is horrible for some people” in like 2 comments lol. thats kinda my point tho. If an investment is only good for people who already know its good, thats not exactly the slam dunk argument you think it is. Also buying because everyone is bullish near all time highs is literally what happens every single market cycle. Thats how markets work. Acting like retail investors hearing about BTC from other people is some kind of character flaw is just weirdly elitist. And if the long term thesis for BTC is really as strong as bitcoiners claim, then somebody buying at 100k isnt automatically stupid. They could just be early for the next cycle or late for this one. Nobody knows. But thanks for the lecture man. I’ll make sure next time I personally study monetary policy, macroeconomics, cryptography, game theory and spend 5,000 hours researching before i buy $7000 worth of bitcoin

On a general note, Diversifying with cryptos... well, it could reduce slightly the risk, but not too much. You are in a volatile, high risk market. If you don't know what you are doing, it may be time to stop and reassess your objectives. If you truly want to diversify, move part of your inversions outside of crypto market. But if you remain, I'd advise you to divide your crypto funds in percentages: \- 80% on big coins: BTC, ETH, XRP, DOT.... \- 15% on promising projects: Alpha coins (VELO...), new coins with a promising white paper... \- 5% on shitcoins. That bit is pure gamble: If they succeed, you earn big. But you'd likely lose everything. Then decide your strategy. Basically you can focus on three main strats: 1. Day scalping 2. Follow the big market fluctuations 3. Hodl 4. Add DCA to 2 & 3 **"Day scalping"** means you buy & sell fast, for small profit each time, many times a day. Requires a lot of work, market analysis and cold blood. Considering you "don't know what you are doing", I wouldn't recommend that. **To "follow market fluctuations"** is done in three steps: 1. Fine out a good moment to buy a few of the big coins. Remember the price you bought. 2. Decide a price increase in which you will sell. IE: Buy BTC at 65k, sell at 100k. 3. Wait until price reaches sell objective. This requires some analysis, but as you focus on big price changes, it is way easier and more relaxed. You may do a trade today, and not make another one in months or years. **HODL:** Buy, and keep buying, hoping prices will go up. It worked wonders for those who did it for years, but you cannot know if it will work nowadays. The main advantage is that it is simple: You buy and forget you have criptos at all **DCA:** Dollar Cost averaging. But regularly the same ammount of fiat currency (USD for instance) of the cryptos you choose. This makes price dips & surges less step. It avoids the risk of putting all your funds in a moment when price is too high, but the opposite is also true. Basically, you sacrifice a bit of potential benefit to reduce potential loses. Anyway, stop, reevaluate your strategy, and carry on. Crypto is very volatile, no matter how much you diversify.

TattooedCFO

Everyone talks about quantum computing being a security problem for BTC. We all know that can be solved for however. My theory is that it actually becomes a solut that dramatically speeds transaction times when quantum computing is applied to the BTC algorithm.

Post is by: Right_Effect8912 and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1u2gkfv/i_built_a_free_nosignup_dashboard_that_tracks_us/ Every cycle the same thing happens: liquidity moves first, price follows, and the narrative shows up last. So I built a thing that just watches the first step. **What it tracks, all from primary sources:** * **US Net Liquidity** = Fed balance sheet (WALCL) − Treasury General Account − Reverse Repo. When the Treasury rebuilds its cash pile or RRP rises, dollars leave the system. When they spend it down, dollars flow in. This is the single most underrated driver of BTC. * **Stablecoin supply** (DefiLlama) — Tether/Circle minting = dry powder loading; burning = capital leaving. * **Spot BTC ETF flows** (Farside) — the BlackRock/Fidelity bid, 5-day net. * **The broad dollar, SOFR−IORB spread, ECB/BoJ/PBoC balance sheets** — the global funding backdrop. It compresses all of that into one 0–100 "Tide Index" and draws it as a map of capital flows between the Fed, the Treasury, Frankfurt, Tokyo, Beijing, the stablecoin issuers, the ETF desks, and the Bitcoin network. Green arcs = money flowing toward risk, red = the drain. Refreshes once a day after the Treasury's daily statement drops. **The honest caveats:** net liquidity is a proxy, not gospel — it's a regime/backdrop gauge, best read on 2–4 week persistence, not a daily trade signal. The famous "global M2 leads BTC by 10–13 weeks" charts are partly FX artifacts. I built this to see *conditions.* It's free, no signup, no paywall, and the daily JSON payload is an open API if you want to build with the data (liqtide.com/data/latest.json). Methodology with all sources is on the site too. [**liqtide.com**](http://liqtide.com) Feedback genuinely wanted — if you track liquidity, what signal would you add?

Selling 32 BTC is not enough to shift the bid/ask prices on the book like you mentioned. But the price reaction to MSTR selling 32 BTC was real, for a few reasons. 1. Shift in MSTR buying strategy and thus market sentiment shifted for the future of BTC Current BTC prices are largely propped up by MSTR buying and reserve activity. A change from MSTR’s policy of “invest billions and never sell” could signal upcoming weakness at a time when BTC is alreadycweak or underperforming, and many people in the market may be currently at a loss. How do you think these traders react when they see that the largest fund in the world apparently makes a change to their acquisition strategy? They lose trust in MSTR and thus the price of BTC in the future, and take their money out of the investment. Further, **MSTR sold their 32 BTC after acquiring $4B in BTC at a cost basis of around $77.5K each and then promptly rook a 25% loss on this position** Saylor was clearly early with those purchases, and he lost a LOT of money in last few weeks, while displaying huge arrogance. MSTR sitting on massive losses while BTC is weak, with the threat of bankruptcy or more selling in the near future and thus more whifts down in market sentiment suddenly creates high risk for the future of BTC. Few other factors- 2. capital outflows to AI and other assets due to refer. Other assets are doing great while BTC is stuck around a 5 year low. 3. General market instability and precariousness of Iran war and broader market cycle eh broader geopolitical tensions 4. halvening cycle

The 1,202 sats were almost certainly the withdrawal fee that GoMining's payment processor charged but didn't display clearly. You can verify this yourself: go to mempool.space, paste the transaction hash a86609911ead87031cf75a808a965802f3adaa9f07e4fd0b88d66ea72a159112, and check the output amount vs what GoMining said they sent. If the on-chain output matches what Kraken received (0.00342000 BTC), then the difference was taken before the transaction was broadcast. GoMining showed you the gross amount, not the net after their processor's fee.

Instead of spreading your money across many "medium risk" assets the typical diversified portfolio, you split your capital into two extremes: Portion Allocation Type of Assets Goal Safe Barbell 80 to 90% Very conservative (low volatility) Protect capital Risky Barbell 10 to 20% Very high risk, high upside bets Generate outsized returns You completely avoid the middle ground those "somewhat risky but not crazy" assets that usually deliver mediocre results. In Traditional Investing Safe side: Government bonds, treasuries, cash, gold, blue-chip defensive stocks. Risky side: Venture capital, startups, options, leveraged bets, or small speculative positions. In Crypto Context Safe side (80 to 90%): BTC, "ETH," stablecoins Risky side (10-20%): A very small number of carefully filtered high-conviction bets (clean tokenomics, real usage starting to show, not 90%+ down from ATH, etc.). You don’t hold 8 to 12 random small caps just because they "might do something." You stay extremely picky on the risky side. Protects you from big losses (most of your money is safe). Still gives you exposure to massive upside (the small risky bucket can 10x to 50x and move the needle). Avoids "diworsification" owning too many mediocre coins that all move together when the market dumps.

\> No matter how much knowledge you have and how confident you are in Bitcoin, those bear runs absolutely suck and there will always be a feeling of uneasiness of buy during this period. I agree that there is uneasiness in bear markets, but I really like bear markets because you don't have the mainstream ppl here buying BTC. It is only the people who get it. If you go to BTC meetup in bear market you meet way less dumb people, which is nice.

.21 is .000001% of the total supply of 21 million BTC. If you had .000001% of the total supply in circulation of 22.7 trillion USD, you would have $227,000 currently. So practically speaking not an insignificant amount but on the global scale not an insane proportion. But more USD is printed constantly and it’s perpetually less valuable over time.

Actual diversification looks like combining stocks, gold and silver and BTC, alts all do the same

Simple, the market didn’t collapse because of that sale of 32 BTC. Do you not have access to 3/6/9/12 month charts? MSTR started rolling over July ‘25. Hope this helps.

As special as .21 BTC.

You could buy 21 BTC for under $10 in 2010.

Owning 0.179 BTC places you firmly in the top 6% to 10% of all Bitcoin wallet addresses, and generally within the top 1% to 2% globally when measured against the total population of Bitcoin holders. The exact breakdown of your standing can be viewed in two ways, both driven by the finite supply of 21 million Bitcoins:Top 6% – 10% of Addresses: When evaluating the total population of wallet addresses on the blockchain, holding > 0.1 BTC (and up to 1 BTC) puts you comfortably in this decile. Top 1% of Owners: The "0.28 Club" is a widely cited statistical benchmark in the community. If you divide the 21 million maximum possible Bitcoins by 1% of the global population, holding ~0.28 BTC theoretically guarantees you a spot in the richest 1% of the world's Bitcoin owners. Since 0.179 BTC (my current holding, I continue to DCA) is a significant fraction of this, you rank exceptionally high in global wealth distribution.

Spot selling or exchanges move the price up if large sellers sell on there, image a large buyer getting their BTC on an exchange in Bulk the spot price would go through the roof (good right) no not good bad because next month when they want more they pay more. The name of the game is to keep price low and buy more, whether they buy or sell they’ll do it either in small exchange orders but lots of them over time or they will be matched with sellers OTC. People miss understand that buying is the key to higher prices when in reality stopping selling is more important, you can have as many buyers as you like but if the selling matches the amount bought prices don’t rise, if sellers stop and buyers keep coming prices must rise.

Hurry up and get to 1 BTC

I’m not a gambler no, so I diversify. But I do have a good size of my portfolio in BTC.

It wasn't bitcoin. I believe it was mostly, if not all, USDT, which everyone should already know can be seized by the US government. It was after the news first broke about Iran getting crypto assets seized, that Iran announced they would only accept BTC toll payments to pass through the Strait.
