USDT has the advantage of trading 1:1 with USD on Bitrefill. In contrast, if you use BTC then they're going to charge you based on the current BTC/USD market rate, and the rate they give may not be great. Note, however, that Tron fees are comparatively pretty high. If you can get it on an L2 chain like Arbitrum or Polygon then you'll save money (both are supported by Bitrefill).

Please take a look at the weekly BTC/USD chart from either Bitstamp or the CME, whichever you prefer. I’d appreciate it if you could point out specifically where you see a bear market developing, because from my perspective the recent movement could still fit within a broader upward trend. At the moment, there’s no clear indication that the larger bullish structure has been invalidated. It’s understandable to compare the current price action to what we saw in early February 2022. In that period we did get a bounce, but the price eventually continued downward, which effectively started a weekly bear market. My point is simply that our minds tend to look for familiar patterns — especially ones that happened recently — but the market doesn’t necessarily have to follow the same path again. So while there may indeed be bearish behavior on the lower timeframes, the medium- to long-term trend still appears constructive, even if several moving averages have been broken along the way.

Not immediately. The CFTC approval means Bitcoin can now be treated as eligible collateral inside regulated systems, but that doesn’t automatically mean that every platform offers it to users. Coinbase could allow BTC to be used as margin in the future, but today most platforms still use cash or stables until risk models and internal approvals are updated. So the permission exists, the actual usage will phase in gradually.

Ah, found the idiot thinking they know what “satoshi’s vision” was. Wall Street adopting bitcoin was just as inevitable as people adopting it. You can’t have one and not the other if you want it to actually get anywhere. Nothing about the network has changed; anyone can use it anywhere they have an internet connection, there will only be 21 million BTC, and the only way you can get some is through purchasing at market price, or mining them. All the same as it was back in 2009, just with more security and liquidity.

Post is by: MarketFlux and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1phs6d7/cftc_launches_pilot_program_allowing_bitcoin/ The Commodity Futures Trading Commission has launched a new digital-assets pilot program that will allow Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH), and Circle’s USDC stablecoin to be used as collateral in derivatives markets, marking one of the most significant steps yet toward integrating cryptocurrencies into regulated U.S. financial infrastructure. Acting Chair Caroline Pham announced the initiative as part of the CFTC’s Tokenized Collateral Program, which aims to test how digital assets can be safely incorporated into margin, settlement, and risk-management workflows across futures and swaps markets. The pilot will run within a controlled regulatory framework and will require participating firms to meet strict operational, cybersecurity, and reporting standards. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Yes! In that way you can use it - as something that swaps to USD during a transaction for a moment. But like as THE currency - no one would ever spend it. I sure don’t spend my BTC. If I use it for a transaction I immediately replace it with new BTC

Mentions:#BTC

I should clarify that Strategy (#MSTR) doesn't pay a dividend on their common stock, but they do pay dividends on their preferred stock STRC. They basically sold and diluted their common stock to raise & secure cash funds to pay out this preferred-stock dividend for STRC through basically all of 2026. I'm not in here trying to argue merits of buying their stock at all, and I own none of their products. The intent of my original post was just that with pressure reducing on them, confidence can return to BTC buyers that Saylor won't flood the market with cheap Bitcoin in a pinch.

Best thing about BTC is that you are always right as long as you are willing to wait. BTC to 60k? Sure. BTC to 150k? Also yes

Mentions:#BTC

Everything you say about BTC and mining is correct, yet you're completely missing the point. If the hashrate drops, the network is less secure. It becomes cheaper to attack the network, there's more mining hardware sitting idle on the sidelines which potentially could come back online to attack the network. Do you get it? The fact that the difficulty will adjust itself based on the hash rate or that you know the issuance schedule does absolutely nothing to make the network more secure. >In fact the less valuable ETH is the more transactions can be done on it, and the more value the apps that use it are! That's the entire point of Ethereum, that I think everyone is missing. This is nonsense and I don't know why you brought this up anyway (I mean I do know, but it's not relevant here). The cost of using the network isn't relative to the price of ETH, it's based entirely on demand for blockspace.

MSTR holders definitely aren't out of the woods yet either, yeah, still down around -60% from July's high. Though compared to Bitcoin their investors also have to deal with dilution / debt / dividends / insolvency concerns. I'd imagine that some of BTC's recent downturn revolved around de-risking from the asset over MSTR concerns of potentially being forced to sell to cover expenses. If one was worried they would start saturating the market with BTC sales, they would sell first prior to that affecting the price. If concerns over them having to sell BTC are silenced, that can allow confidence to return to the market in that regard.

Some of the posters here are the biggest idiots alive and don't even understand the basics of how a capitalist economy runs. Are we socialists now or what happened? Those governments are by law not allowed to hold these assets nor should any government just sit on assets idly. Especially not a criminal department. This a central banks job. And why would a government do that anyway? A government works completely differently to a private household and you can't compare that. Any government spending is money that is injected into the economy. If they start withholding money from the economy and keeping assets, that will be your spending power just sitting there not pushing the economy forward. What do you think will happen to bitcoin and stocks if the government is storing and keeping liquidity withheld? Ever heard of quantitative tightening? Do you actually want the government to do quantitative tightening besides a central bank? One entity removing liquidity is enough. So now, you want two? Here's the deal. In any capitalistic society, it is our job to grow our assets, because we are the one's who pay taxes. The government doesn't pay taxes; they receive them. Their job is to run services and to spend that money which brings it back into the economy where you have access to it. If you have any sense, you would want to have access to as much liquidity as possible. In any capitalist society, a government is not supposed to sit on money. YOU are supposed to sit on money. So why in the hell would any sane person want that a government bunkers BTC? Unless you are a communist or a fascist who thinks that the government should melt with the private sector in some way...

tldr; MicroStrategy has purchased an additional 10,624 Bitcoin for nearly $1 billion, increasing its total holdings to 660,624 BTC. Despite market pressures and Bitcoin's price volatility, the company continues its aggressive Bitcoin acquisition strategy. However, concerns are growing over its reliance on leverage and equity dilution to fund purchases, as recent fundraising efforts have weakened. Analysts warn that this approach may become unsustainable, especially if the company's stock value falls below the net value of its Bitcoin holdings again. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

It's been a mild relief seeing Strategy crawl its way up from the lows last week. Pressure appears to have at least temporarily subsided as they unveiled that their ability to pay their dividends are secured through at least 2026. It's anyone's guess what percentage of Bitcoin's recent turmoil was related to uncertainty in the world's biggest BTC holding company struggling, but hopefully that relief can exert and reflect more confidence in BTC/Crypto moving forward. MSTR even posting a green day like today while stocks/BTC were slightly down has been a very rare sight lately lol.

Sure, in the worst case the risk a complete loss of funds relative to any liquidation proceedings. Many many centralised lenders have gone under, so it’s not like Kraken would be the first. However the odds of Kraken going under are probably pretty low as they’re moving towards their IPO and reporting standards are going to need to be more transparent once they’re public. That said- I keep zero funds on exchanges. The sole exception was Celsius years ago- but I was lucky on two parts, firstly that it was a very small portion of my total crypto holdings (I intentionally de-risked) and that I actually made money from the bankruptcy because most of my holdings were stables and we were paid out in BTC and ETH which then quickly appreciated. My advice- everything kept on an exchange should be an amount you’re willing to lose in the worst case.

Mentions:#BTC#ETH

You realize that they have enough assets to last 10 years even if BTC was 20k the whole time? You all talk like you know anything but you don’t even know what reserves Strategy has. This is just FUD like how Tether has been supposedly going bankrupt for the past 8 years.

Mentions:#BTC#FUD

Edit: and just to be clear they will have zero problem paying off all debt either through conversion, massive profits or regular dilution as long as BTC doesn't have a 5 year bear market What your missing is that it's no different than AI companies raising debt to fund the chip and CapEx cycle. If the Fed keeps printing MSTR will easily find new debt. And as long as fiat keeps being debased it will work. If you're so confident US will stop going into debt and printing. Short it BTC.

I’m staking my ETH and SOL there, and I’m also earning an APY on my Bitcoin through their Earn program. I’m starting to wonder if I’m making a mistake here. From what I understand, staking through a centralized exchange is convenient, but it also means I’m taking on extra counterparty risk. And since Bitcoin can’t actually be staked, the APY is basically lending — which might be the riskiest part of what I’m doing. So my questions are: Am I making a mistake by staking on Kraken / earning APY on BTC? Where should I be staking my ETH and SOL instead if I want something safer? Would appreciate any advice from people more experienced with this. Thanks! *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

I never argued that. But the argument made by CZ is that it's easy to fake and scam gold. That's just untrue. That's what my comment is really about. Both gold and BTC are very secure methods of ownership. I prefer the anonymity of gold and that's why it's my preferred asset. I had some BTC early on for the digital gold promise. Did a transaction with someone in my community and then suddenly everyone knew how much wealth I had in BTC. I immediately exited the space because of that. If people knew how much gold I had they'd treat me much different. No thanks. I prefer to blend in with the middle class and for my kids to live a normal life.

You'd have to believe halving is totally broken for the bear thesis to be correct. If BTC literally does nothing in 4-5 years sure they'd have to sell. Hence it is a levered bet on BTC. But really dumb regards act like it's a ponzi or definitely going to blow up.

Possibly What’s more likely since I know some of them, is they bought and had a good pretty good sense of when the peaks were ending and then they would buy back at a lower price. They were really good at that especially early on. They were really good at not buying to hope. They were also first access to many ICO that would then pump that they would then sell from that currency back into ETH or BTC. So they didn’t have to touch any of their stacks, and in fact accumulated a lot more.

Your own chart shows ETH doing pretty well against BTC in the long run. Up more than 10x vs BTC since its inception ten years ago (because your chart is actually wrong, the ratio was 0.0023 this day in 2015, not 0.008). If you want to make extraordinary claims like "alt/btc bleeding being the only guarantee in crypto" you better actually provide some evidence, which whatever you posted certainly falls short of being.

Mentions:#ETH#BTC

It makes 100% sense. These people don’t think on days, weeks, months. They think about years and decades. If BTC keeps appreciating in value longterm then the borrowed fiat that devalues due to money printing will become worth less and BTC will become worth more. Also, you misunderstood what I said. They will give you money using your Bitcoin as collateral.

He is creating a Bitcoin bank. Bitcoin isn’t going anywhere and if you zoom out you’ll see that everyone who has held BTC for more than two years is in profit throughout the history of Bitcoin.

Mentions:#BTC

That makes no sense though, since if you're implying that spending fiat doesn't carry the same 'problem', you're ignoring the possibility of spending that fiat to buy BTC instead 🤷

I have almost completed my building with these 2 percent loans. I am not sure yet whether I should repay them or sell BTC.

Mentions:#BTC

If you are willing to take out that loan, and you can comfortably afford to pay it back, go ahead and buy if you believe in BTC. 10 years can be a period where you can get great returns if BTC keeps growing

Congratulations! Keep on buying and hodling! Never sell BTC!

Bernstein: "In view of recent market correction, we believe, t**he Bitcoin cycle has broken the 4-year pattern** (cycle peaking every 4 years) and is now in an elongated bull-cycle with more sticky institutional buying offsetting any retail panic selling. Despite a \~30% Bitcoin correction, we have seen less than 5% outflows via ETFs. We are moving our 2026E Bitcoin price target to $150,000, with the cycle potentially peaking in 2027E at $200,000. Our long term 2033E Bitcoin price target remains \~$1,000,000." Bernstein updated BTC price targets while all of reddit is in shambles. A big tittied blonde with me to the islands, thank you

Satoshi mentioned gold, gold like properties and to escape inflation so nothing have changed, people just imagined BTC was gonna be some worthless fiat like thing but clearly Satoshi knew its value gonna keep going up if its successful because of its properties.

My mom bought me one around this time. I can’t remember where from or exactly when or if it was even a real one, but it’s crazy to think that is possible she bought me some BTC without knowing it 😂 and I don’t know if it’s still in my stuff or gone forever 😂 but I remember thinking when she gave it to me “man it’d be so cool if there was bitcoin on here somehow”. I still wonder lol

No he didn't. This idea has been BTC maxi cope for a decade at least.

In terms of security, this is a superior form of BTC. Everyone expects "normies" to take private keys seriously but if anyone ever onboarded a friend to crypto they know exactly what I'm talking about

Mentions:#BTC

Yeah I’m glad we share the same vision, about BTC, why don’t you mine?

Mentions:#BTC

Why not take the loan out, do a DCA of $200 a week (buys 30k over 2 years) and then you use cash portion of the loan to repay it. Once you hit about 2 years and you're cash is all BTC, then you start selling some sats each month for loan servicing. That way you DCA into it, have capital for the loan payments (later on, if btc tanks, you can always sell some sats). Also, look at what your monthly budget would look like if btc went to zero and you were repaying 320/mo for ten years. (unlikely, but it is the worst case scenario. You're trying to buy an appreciating asset with debt in an inflationary economy. Many have become very wealthy with the same strategy (a lot have also gone broke).

I tipped bartenders with the 1BTC ones... Oooooooof.

Mentions:#BTC

It could work out but investing with money you don't have is generally a bad idea. Not only are you paying interest on something that is not guaranteed to increase in value you are also more likely to make emotional decisions due to the added pressure of paying back the loan (aka sell at a loss). Instead I would recommend just using the money you would have used to pay the loan to DCA and just buy more BTC gradually.

BTC is 0.85% of its endowment

Mentions:#BTC

Wrong. They are able to issue debt like this because the debt is convertible if the price of BTC goes high.

Mentions:#BTC

Just because he can't control the price of BTC does not mean he can't successfully predict its direction. If he successfully predicts its direction with very safe leverage, yes he would end up being pretty smart. This isn't margin loans, he's mostly long duration 0% debt.

Mentions:#BTC

There is no margin to call. The debt is 0% at super long duration. Obviously if BTC dies by then so does MSTR. But if he's right about the direction of BTC he prints.

Mentions:#BTC#MSTR

Don't worry once BTC drops to $0.001 I'm buying all of it, so that's as low as it can go.

Question is: would you take a personal loan to buy BTC if BTC is -60/70% from ATH?

Innovation is just crypto hype to sell you a bunch of shitcoins that make the founders and VC rich. The Use Cases are that are being adopted are clear: - Store of value = BTC - Payments, transfers, remittances = Stablecoins - Rails for Stablecoins = Ethereum, Tron, Solana, ETH L2s, etc. - Privacy *(Very little wide level public interest but honorable mention here)* There has been little innovation of anything that can provide real world value and adoption outside BTC. - Stablecoins were the result of the Omni Layer created on top of Bitcoin that allowed custom token ownership and transfer in the network which allowed for the creation of ICOs and the launch of Tether on the Bitcoin network. Other networks like Ethereum and Tron now provide the rails for Stablecoins instead of BTC which functions as a decentralized store of value. Smart Contracts have NOT proven to provide any type of real world value except for trading, leveraging, gambling, lending and yield farming shitcoins on DeFi casinos. The market is maturing and consolidating. **The Total Altcoin market is shrinking (-35% over 4 years) not growing over a 4-year period period for the first time in history.** *BTC and Stablecoins are provide the main growth. This is the market maturing and consolidating:* - BTC Marketcap 5.6X since 2017 BTC ATH - Top 4 Alts Marketcap 4.3X since 2017 BTC ATH - Total Alt Marketcap 3.4X since 2017 BTC ATH - Stablecoin Marketcap 320X since 2017 BTC ATH | | Dec. 2017 | Nov. 2021 | Dec. 2025 |:-----------|:------------:|:------------:|:------------:| | BTC | $0.32T | $1.23T | $1.80T | Top 4 Alts | $0.163T | $0.8123T | $0.70T | Total Alt | $0.282T | $1.52T | $0.97T | Stablecoin | $0.001T | $0.11T | $0.32T | Total Crypto| $0.603T | $2.86T | $3.09T | **Top 4 Alt Dom. over Alts**| **57.80%** | **53.44%** | **72.16%** | **BTC Dom.

You're using circular reasoning. "I am right it has no value therefore I am right." The entire argument hinges on whether BTC is going to be legit long term. Obviously if you think BTC isn't going to be around then MSTR is a terrible investment. But if you think BTC will appreciate it's business model is sound.

Mentions:#BTC#MSTR

I mean, BTC has dropped over 50% and came back from the dead several times in its history already.

Mentions:#BTC

It's a little more complicated than that. They issue debt at 0% which only converts when the price of MSTR goes extremely high. This in turn allows them to keep buying BTC and making money on it. As long as Fed keeps printing (QE3 is almost guaranteed to start soon) and credit markets remain extremely liquid, this strategy will work.

BTC is truly a legend, and DCA is such a solid strategy. I’m also trying to stack as much BTC as I can, I’m mining, and I’m earning a nice return on the portion I’ve invested. I’ve set up my portfolio so that I earn in both bearish and bullish markets, which really helps keep things steady. What’s your strategy?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold#Monetary_use >Hard money stayed in vaults and its paper substitutes became the real currency in circulation. And with Bitcoin this can finally change, yet the first round goes to the custodians who managed to cripple Bitcoin to make this impossible on BTC. This is why Bitcoiners forked bitcoin to be able to scale it.

How? They are borrowing money to buy BTC. You think they’re gonna start doing the opposite? Lend people money to buy BTC? That makes 0 sense.

Fees are less, transactions are faster, platforms are more adopted by traditional finance. State pension systems are choosing to hold BTC on their balance sheets and you can't see how this is progressing from 2015? This is such an obvious statement to me I feel stupid having to explain it to you.
