No stocks, Split between cash, gold, silver and BTC. Working to move systematically move cash to the latter 3. DCA FOR BTC and buy silver and gold when the deals are good.
Source? Trust me bru? 🤣. Quick Claude/ Gemini search showed you when and where BTC will be bottom. ChatGPT is shit.
I stopped trying to. Seriously. Most of it is the same recycled take anyway. I just check the Fear & Greed Index, watch BTC and ETH dominance, and let my trading bots run the actual strategy. Way less screen time, way less FOMO
PS I sold my BTC at $110k, purchased my initial position and DCA all the way until that initial dip when I dumped it all. Now I’m waiting to enter ~$55k but I think it’s going all the way to $40k I just don’t want to miss it trying to time the bottom
>BTC was the only thing trading and it absorbed the entire global panic by itself. Someone has been drinking by themself https://preview.redd.it/qi5rx5tcobmg1.jpeg?width=1164&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=14ea743df6fec04856199aa2631b44a36bcefae3
I got them from fountains when BTC was 7 cents. They were worth about a buck when my laptop crashed. In reality I lost $7.
Paper BTC certainly has this effect, but they’re not going to short some too hard for too long where they can easily get squeezed themselves. Unlike gold/silver you can mine more of, or stocks where MMs create shares and keep shorts open nearly indefinitely, the BTC supply can not manipulated to the same extent, because sooner or later they’re getting squeezed as long as demand for self custody BTC remains.
Feels like classic geopolitics → macro → BTC reflex. If escalation around Iran actually threatens energy flows (Hormuz etc.), markets usually move through oil shock → inflation → monetary stress — and that’s where Bitcoin narratives start to strengthen structurally, not just on headlines. Here is a macro breakdown of this dynamic here: [https://btcusa.com/war-and-peace-of-crypto-us-iran-escalation-hormuz-risk-and-the-future-of-bitcoin-in-wartime-economies/](https://btcusa.com/war-and-peace-of-crypto-us-iran-escalation-hormuz-risk-and-the-future-of-bitcoin-in-wartime-economies/)
Looks like Wall Street has found a way to make their way into BTC and make money off all the retail masses. So much for BTC ever becoming a currency or anything other than a highly speculative asset
Buy dips the REMOVE THE BTC FROM THE EXCHANGES ane do not sell it. Every one BTC removed from the exchange removes 100 BTC of leverage position. Without the regulations that stocks have, the short squeeze possible has an infinite upside.
That's like saying the financial derivatives market isn't used by "non finance customers." Sorry it didn't turn out to be a sudoku app on your phone. Hold BTC if you want something for dumb people.
Assuming this was written by a human (which I already doubt), you've said nothing. Zero substance in here. Sounds pretty desperate to me. At least BTC bag holders readily admit their only real hope is selling to someone dumber at a higher price, since they've long abandoned pretending to believe any of the fake narratives that got them to buy. This is even worse than that.

Post is by: AdPrevious5886 and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1rhfiji/why_not_to_do_a_pump_in_crypto_like_it_was_in/ I mean, we actually saw what happens when people reunite. We have all the power against big companies, or thats the narrative ive been told all my life. The people, united, will never be defeated. And it was shown in 2021 with Gamestop. Right, stocks and crypto are not the same, but all i see now about bitcoin is uncertainty, not only about his price, but about if its useless or not, that was a huge question that drove BTC all this years, adoption, purposes of it etc... But as days are passing, the most reasonable pov here is, bitcoin, as many other cryptos, are just useful for trading, try to earn some money with short/long positions, or in the other hands, for money laundering, scams or any other kind of crime. People keep buying it, yes, but i dont think most of that people will get rich or do enough money to retire like it happened years ago, they just buy trying to make some money, or at least is what i feel reading many subs and comments, or watching any youtube videos. D Also, and in adittion to the actual feeling about it, people is talking about quantum computering and everything, and looks like that could be a big problem, not only in crypto, but in every financial/social term in general. People just doesnt trust in nothing anymore, and thats where i wanted to go. Most of us people here, are probably low-mid class, struggling to live if not in worse conditions, at least i have a job that lets me rent a room and have something to eat. But not buying a house, not having a car, not able to help my parents, sometimes not even being able to pay for unexpected problems, even having some money saved. We cant afford almost nothing for ourselves, and thats how the system is designed, to keep us there. In life, rich/wealthy people need poor people to exist, but that doesnt mean we have to struggle through it all our damn life, not when united, we can change something. Personally, i wouldnt be greedy, i dont need to retire my grandsons, but i feel wealth is so bad distributed and those that could actually help, since the 3 most rich people in the world could end wars, hunger, and everything, but they dont have to do it, its their money and i cant expect others to do what i would do, but im also tired of feeling that everything im doing its not worth the sacrifice, not worth the time and health, not worth the work im putting in, 28 yo, renting an apartment that takes 60-70% my salary from TWO jobs, not able to go on any trip/vacation or even have anything by myself. And thats me, in actually, not a bad position, since theres people having hard times and big problems, struggling way more in life, thats why im saying this, for me, but for all this working people, like my parents, my sister, some friends, the people go try to do their best everyday and just dont feel its worth it anymore. Dont let people lose the faith, their senses, their humanity. We have much more power than we think, and there are ways to do it, we just dont see it because thats how the world worked for older people all their lives, and how it works for people nowadays. What do y'all think? Could we just reunite sometimes and make any coin/stock rise and help eachothers or should we just keep handling, silent and selfish?

Many bitcoins are already lost for good, it is estimated that up to 6-7 million bitcoins. Either private keys were lost, people forgot their seeds, etc. So we definitely can't talk about 21 million BTC.
My Uncle shit his pants good, BTC up 2%
BTC is pumped back to 66k and i think it will keep on like it. until monday morning. may be it will go around 55k
They’ll be watching oil prices closely and what happens with the Straight of Hormuz. If there’s an oil supply shock expect to see a leg down in BTC, until then I think the attitude is we already fell from 70k recently so these events are already priced in. Either way I think ETF outflows will wipe out any weekend price recovery on Monday if the broader market reacts badly to all this.
Every able-bodied working American man should do his best to obtain, as fast as possible: 1-3 BTC+ 300-500 Shares $TSLA 5% Physical Gold $1,000,000 Income-producing REstate $1,000,000 Domestic Equities Do this now and you will be retired in 2035. Let’s go!!!!!
But we are pumping now and going to $100K as per Reddit man. Looks like $50K BTC is cancelled for now.
2018 BTC went 20x from the bottom, 2021 BTC only went 4-5x from the bottom, was already looking pretty cooked since than and following that pattern
We expect BTC to dump even further not just on Monday but for many days following Monday we haven’t come close to a 70% dip from the ATH and the anticipated 80% dip for 2026 1.5 years out from the halfing
You don’t really need to understand BTC to understand that 66k BTC is a solid buy
> few years of experience A few years means nothing when BTC has a 4-year cycle
Holly crappers Batman! I just heard about this from Andrei Jikh from his YouTube channel. "Jane Street is one of four companies in the world that ate authorized to create and redeem shares of the biggest BTC ETF in the world." Manipulation at a scale...wow this is epic if they are found accountable.
If I could predict what BTC would do I'd be a freakin billionaire.
way too dramatic, BTC barely moved and $250M liquidations is not that much
You're right. BTC ETFs are traded on weekdays so yes people might dump it. these people downvoting are idiots
To be fair Israel attacked Iran like what, 6 months ago? BTC and stocks barely went down if I recall correctly. Don’t see much of a difference this time around
Yes I know. Was just curious if people felt that when the markets reopen how might BTC's price be affected. Thought I was asking a genuine and inquisitive question, just to be called a clown. Appreciate your response
Doubt. When BTC dumps it dumps instantaneously. Something else needs to happen for it to dump again
You should be happy that BTC is cheaper right now.
No one knows. I’m guessing more BTC will be liquidated over the weekend. The attack seemed pretty likely so there wasn’t a massive sell off in panic. Then again, there will be plenty of people who see these events as bullish for Bitcoin and want to buy. Unless the conflict takes an unexpected turn, I’d imagine nothing crazy happens with price this weekend, as institutions wait to see how the market reacts. If it’s red, I’m sure BTC will be too. But I won’t be surprised if the market is fairly indifferent as institutions may feel there is actually less uncertainty now than before strikes began.
It's AI. Karma farmer. Here's my version. Please give me all the updoots. Post Title: I AM LITERALLY SCREAMING RIGHT NOW!!! FOUND MY 150 BTC WALLET IN A BOX OF LITERAL TRASH!!!! Subreddit: r/Bitcoin Posted by: u/DiamondHandsHODL69 GUYS. GUYS. GUYS. I am literally shaking, crying, throwing up, and doing backflips in my mom's basement right now. You are NOT going to believe this absolute brain-dead luck I just had. THE BACKSTORY (I am a certified moron): So back in 2013, I was high on caffeine and Mountain Dew and bought like 150 Bitcoin because I thought the logo looked like a cool gold coin from Mario. I think I paid like $100 for the whole lot? Anyway, I put it on this crusty-ass 200GB hard drive and—because I am a literal genius—I encrypted it with a password that was just the lyrics to "All Star" by Smash Mouth but with numbers for the vowels. Fast forward: I forgot which vowels I swapped. I tried 4llSt4r... nothing. I tried 3llSt3r... nothing. I figured I was doomed to be a wagie forever. I threw the drive into my "Box of Shame" which is mostly just broken GameCube controllers, half-eaten beef jerky, and old Shrek DVDs. THE MIRACLE: I’m "cleaning" today (aka my mom threatened to evict me if I didn't find the floor), and I find the drive. It’s covered in mystery goo. I plug it in, and it’s making a sound like a cat in a blender. I’m clicking around, crying because I can't remember if I used a 5 or an S. Then, I find an old, grease-stained Taco Bell receipt from November 2013 tucked inside a copy of Guns & Ammo. THE REVEAL: On the back of the receipt, written in CRAYON (because I couldn't find a pen), is a 24-word seed phrase. But get this—because I was "super into spy stuff" back then, I didn't write the words. I wrote the page numbers and word counts from a 2012 Sears Catalog. I actually still had the catalog under my bed (don't ask why). I spent four hours flipping through pages of lawnmowers and denim jeans to find the words. Toaster Cargo Pants... you get the idea. THE PAYOUT: I just typed those 24 stupid words into a new wallet. I didn't even need the Smash Mouth password. BALANCE: 150.00000000 BTC CURRENT VALUE: $4,215,675.69 I am officially a multi-millionaire because I was too lazy to throw away a Sears Catalog and a Taco Bell receipt for ten years. I am currently eating a cold Burrito Supreme to celebrate. TL;DR: I’m a billionaire (basically) because of Shrek, Sears, and Taco Bell. See ya later, losers! I’m buying a private island shaped like a Dogecoin! 🚀🚀🚀🌕🌕🌕 Would you like me to add some "angry jealous redditor" comments to really capture the vibe?
Si j'étais célibataire sans enfant : All In BTC Mais avec une famille, jai une partie en action/ETF
I can respect your answer. I too was heavily invested and DCA’d to gain 6 BTC, Freedom! However, the more I learned, the media/govt control the narrative. BTC took off because it was an anti govt freedom coin but built by the govt itself with illusion. They front ran it and the gains are due to them pumping it. They can kill it through narratives anytime they want through media or they can pump it anytime they want through media as well. The people don’t have a say, BTC pumps or dumps based on govt, sailor etc. Sailor is already programming people that it could go to 8k but “he’s not selling” .. and “will refinance with another bank loan to buy more” Total typical soap opera at play, pumping and dumping through new narratives. I trusted the concept too, now sick for those that can’t see it.
Sold all my BTC last year. It was 20% of my portfolio back then Im now slowly rebuying It, it's currently 5% of my portfolio but I plan to make It 40% by the end of this year Ana then I'll sell most of it (but not all, my new plan is to never have less than 5% in BTC) on 2028. Rinse and repeat until the cycles stop working.
Iran is using BTC for arms , fuck BTC
I'm well under 1 percent in BTC.
An anti govt coin that was created by the govt to fool the people that it was the people’s freedom coin. Now still controlled by the govt of which the value of your bag is determined by whether they pump or dump it. Trust the govt. and keep stacking BTC.
When I got to 1 BTC I stopped adding to it. At the time it was about 1/3 of my liquid investments (non-retirement accounts). Now it's a lot less.
if BTC drops during conversion then you ask your client to pay the difference. clients are fine to pay a bit more to cover exchange rate dump risks. As a broker, there is NO legal requirement to perform AML due diligence on source of crypto - we are not lawyers and we are not a bank. it is not our job to investigate. Accept crypto, pay the operator, keep commission and let clients fly. Simple.
What coins can you receive? Fees on BTC is quite high. If you are happy with a small amount of some coin with cheap fees I'll send you a small amount free of charge. If it can be bought on revolut and sent I'm down for it. I know small amount doesn't matter in the big picture but I'd like to reward young people for taking steps towards a brighter financial future. Then I can scratch of doing the good deed for the day as well 👍
As of Feb 21st, 403,460 BTC had been purchased between $60,000 and $70,000 and that was a week ago, must be much higher now. There's no shortage of demand at these levels. Of course no one knows if the bottom is in, but it's possible, and a lot of people waiting for lower / October would miss out if that was the case.
Ah, yes, he was an OG big blocker. Now I feel sorry for him. Imagine having like 100 BTC, and getting additional 100 BCH after the fork. He must've felt super smart, and probably converted his 100 BTC into like 500 BCH. Fast forward 9 years later: he has like 600 BCH, which are worth $260K. Had he kept his 100 BTC, now he'd have like ... >6 million? Big blockers are morally right, yes. Their story is true. Their intents are noble. But they'll forever stay poor. BCH never reached an ATH, and keeps dropping lower year by year.
Just stack if you believe in the longer term. Buy more when its low. Don't try to predict anything - don't trade, don't risk more than just holding BTC itself. Focus only on how much BTC you hold, not what its worth today. It is a risky investment - I believe in it and am all in, however I also sleep better knowing that if I lost it all tomorrow I will survive. But I am all in because - no guts no glory. I will risk my safe future for glory. I want the possibility of an outstanding outcome - safe is all mushy peas innit?
Post is by: Excellent_8740 and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1rh7a4m/bitcoin_holds_steady_amid_market_uncertainty/ The U.S. has started what President Trump called major combat operations in Iran, hitting missile, naval, and nuclear targets, There are reports of intercepted missiles, explosions, and closed airspace in the region. Bitcoin has stayed above $63,000 for now, but some analysts are warning that once traditional markets reopen, we could see a pullback toward $60,000 or lower, but Traders are divided, some think the crisis could push BTC higher in the short term, while others see it acting more like a risk asset that follows the broader market down. So now my question is Will Bitcoin prove its safe haven status, or will this crisis expose its correlation with traditional markets? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/CryptoMarkets) if you have any questions or concerns.*
I’ve been buying BTC too.
Long term down trend still going strong against BTC. No reason to buy it imo.
A war erupts in the middle east, but BTC price is like down 1.5% vs yesterday afternoon... Trumps tweets about China tariffs in October and billions are liquidated. If you still think crypto markets follow narratives...
How many BTC are mines per year? At 5% Market Share?
I think the first time I read the whitepaper and actually understood it was the moment for me. The first time I read it at all, I had no idea what most things meant. So I learned about things like hashing and gained a very full understanding of how it works and what it is and why BTC uses it. I learned about inflation which led me to learning about money in general. I learned about networks and peer to peer vs server client architectures. I have learned about the Byzantine generals problem and why it matters. I learned about economics very broadly, this one actually became my biggest interest in life. I learned about scarcity and how it applies to the things in life that we use and produce and consume. I learned about blockchains in general and the blockchain trilema and layered systems and scaling solutions. I learned about decentralization and how order can arise without central direction. And then one day I went back to read the whitepaper again and it all fell into place.
Do your own research. I don’t try to sell people on BTC. Like any investment do. Your. Research.
That must’ve been unreal :))) Most lost BTC stories don’t end like that. Huge reminder to back up properly. Glad you secured it right away
Most go heavy stocks, smaller BTC, like 70/30 or 80/20. Pick a split you can hold through a 50% drop.
36, having my first baby. 70% high risk roboadvisor (mostly index funds yielding around 20% every year), 15% high yields savings, 15% BTC. Buying a lot of BTC right now though, so that’ll probably bump up. Not counting 401K…that’s got the most
617.84 BTC long 450.69 BTC short Barely skewed towards long. Not a sign of rotation, feels more like taking advantage of short-termo volatility.
Agreed with everything except this one. >Both gold and BTC use off ramps to exchange for dollars to spend. The number of shops I can walk in and pay in bitcoin keeps going up. https://BTCmap.org The same cannot be said about gold.
Market makers like to capitalize on fear by making the market red so people sell. It’s obvious if you have two brain cells. This sub with one brain cell: “BTC isn’t a safe asset anymore! People are looking for an excuse to sell!” 🙄
The narrative that the govt pushes for BTC is digital gold. Gold value is currently going up in war and BTC is going down as Inverse Digital Gold. Where’s my security of holding BTC if it goes down with uncertainty?? It’s a legitimate question.
2% BTC, 80% VOO and VTI, 10% DIA, 8% individual stocks and some bonds
What would you tather have right now, Dinars or BTC?
You're joking? There is a direct correlation between wars starting and markets OF ALL KINDS Going down. Including BTC. Pick up a history book.
BTC value behaves like an aggregate of most global markets, IMO, after watching it for 12 years.
Your argument was about betting markets counting as gambling or investing. Now you're on some tangent about DCAing into BTC? Like wtf are you even saying?
Awww, are you scared ? It’s ok, wealth isn’t for everyone. If you are not DCAing into these dips…… I hope you REALLY enjoy your job. $67k down to $64k ?!? (At the time of your comment). Time to sell everything! BTC is going to zero! 🤦🏻♂️
I found 14 words and the letters BTC on a card inside a board game box I hadn't opened in years. I thought it was finally happening, my early years BTC that I never bought but maybe I could have accidentally set something up. When I checked it...zero. But I did have the phrase like 10 years later. So that's pretty good storage I reckon.
The whole market drops when bombs drop. BTC just actively trades all the time so it's more reactive.
I started in stocks. When I learned about BTC I decided to focus on that during bear markets like now. I'm aiming for a specific amount of BTC then I will go back fully into stocks.
BTC was targeted to go down when the war plan was drawn... After the war.. it will bounce back..
Watch 'The Exit Manual' on YouTube. EASILY the best way to get convinced and learn more about BTC. [https://www.youtube.com/@exitmanual](https://www.youtube.com/@exitmanual)
People were posting threads about *BTC eyes $80k* before it had even hit $70k. Crypto never learns. They levered up shorts insanely and got washed out on the spike, then they levered up insane on longs and got washed out in the crash. Sadly, these price moves are common for every token so wtf did they look at that convinced them price moves like this could *never* happen?
Its putting in the research and understanding. It doesnt happen overnight. Theres no shortcut. Money ALWAYS retreats to the hardest asset. For 5,000+ years that has been gold. Gold is a store of value over time, fungible (not easily), transportable (not easily), gold is recognizable (becoming ever increasingly easy to fake), widely accepted in exchange. Bitcoin is all of these things but superior. No centralized party is required for verification. Bitcoin is almost infinitely more divisible (100,000,000 Satoshi's = 1 BTC) almost infinitely more transportable. The one knock everyone currently has is not being able to easily spend it which is knuckledragger logic because no one is walking into Dunkin Donuts with their gold as a form of payment. Both gold and BTC use off ramps to exchange for dollars to spend.
You’re an idiot and things like this are why Bitcoin is so volatile. I mean, you do you, I’ll happy get BTC on the cheap when people like you get margin called. Should’ve just dca man, smh…
Yeah, we are below a comment asking spe-ci-fi-cal-ly about a "war trade" or "crisis trade", so yes, short-term. What was the option to rotate into for a short-term "Iran attack trade"? Gold. Longer-term... it's hard to say. On the 2-year time frame vs. today's prices I think both BTC and gold still have about at 2x potential (even more if you look at gold and silver mining ETFs, which are overdue for some massive outperformance vs. the metals' own prices). You go out to like 4-6-8 years, yes, BTC might outperform gold if nothing catastrophic happens to its security or value proposition.
Dude iranian oligarchs gonna sell all that BTC as soon as they get the chance, just need a little bit of internet lol
BTC controlled by wallstreet, no longer decentralized
The price of BTC changes on an ongoing bass. It is possible that the price of BTC when the transaction was made was higher than when you made the request - there is substantial variability over the last hour. I don’t know what Coinbase’s official policy is regarding the price YOU press the button at and the time they hit your account is. But there are also fees, spread, etc.
100% BTC - nothing else matters at the moment
8% at the moment but will probably get to 10% as I continue to buy in these red days. I like to have up to 5% max on BTC but I am very bullish these last 3 months and I believe by end of the year it will represent at least 20% of the portfolio on the way up which is when I will consider rebalancing a bit.
10% S&P 20% PM 35% CRYPTO(80% of that BTC) 35% Stocks
Open PAXG and BTC on the same chart and look at yesterday+today.
What a nonsense! Of course it matters! How did you buy your Bitcoin? With Bitcoin? As long as fiat is the main currency BTC / USD matter a lot!
Caveat - it’s a terrible thing happening like always on the world. Which is why I don’t want watch the news, I didn’t even know until I opened Reddit. DCA isn’t just an investment strategy - it helps to just filter everything out. We know where BTC is going. We know there will always be terrible things happening in the world. Block it out. Get outside. DCA
1 BTC = 1 BTC Nothing happened.
Large assets don't usually go to zero. They stagnate. They underperform. They lose narrative dominance. That is historically more common than an outright extinction. Quesiton isn't whether BTC will go to zero. The more interesting question is can it continue to attract incremental capital in a tightening liquidity environment. Zero is unlikely. But valuation is always a function of liquidity, utility and belief.... and those variables move in cycles. What do you think will drive the next phase?
> You don’t have to buy it if you don’t see the value in it. oh I did buy it for longer time and earn too but for some period I actually believed way too much BTC maxis crap. That is the only thing I regret, I should have treated it more like a pump and dump shitcoin like everything else.
No annual fee, it buys the BTC automatically for you at the time of each transaction
Retail, like you and me, aren't the one's selling. As far as I can tell, it's institutions that are selling. "The Game" players, that drove BTC's price as high as it is right now. Without them, BTC would still be 10-20k. That's why the price will ALWAYS be in flux when above that threshold.
It’s not about how much the BTC is “worth” when measured in a pretend currency, it’s about how many sats you accumulate👍🏻
Since when did BTC give a shit about geo politics
We took a slightly different approach... Don't buy any BTC, YET. Read about dividend ETFs. (I prefer energy & BTC related products). Buy those every week. Take weekly, monthly, quarterly earnings from those and buy BTC. Every time you hit $1k of USD value in your BTC balance, send it to cold storage. We took 100% of our savings (all depends on how comfortable you are) and purchased STRC (a stock pegged at $100), it pays 9-11% interest. Take the monthly earnings from that and buy BTC.
