The Gemini BTC credit card is amazing right now. They’re doing a 5% rewards on every purchase till Dec 3rd I think. I paid off a hefty bill this week, instantly got the notification $60 worth of BTC sent to my account. Feels dumb not to take advantage of 5% on everything. Good time to join. I’m trying to get more referral rewards so here’s my referral link: Use my referral code to sign up for The Gemini Credit Card and get an extra $50 in crypto! Check out offer and benefits. https://creditcard.exchange.gemini.com/credit-card/apply?referral_code=9wnmgfdxd

USDT has infinite supply, as it is backed by USD. BTC is fixed supply.

They are just trying to (re)enforce their capital controls. The past few years post-COVID more and more wealthy Chinese have been wealth parking their money overseas. Recently it was in Japanese real estate. China has strict controls on how much money can be sent out of the country each year and BTC was just another way for them to move money outside of the control of the central CCP government.

The Genesis Book by Aaron van Wirdum. Goes into the history of the technologies that went into Bitcoin (the only of which was new was the self adjusting difficulty). Explains it so a layman can understand. Also covers the monetary policy side and how "sound" money evolved from sea shells to gold to BTC.

I've studied USDT.D, USDT, Bitfinex & IFinex for awhile now. But what really happened was, Bitfinex didn't wanna give out customer data & never received the tokens back. USG Still holds them. My personal belief is, Whales like "Spoofy" & others on Bitfinex, aren't actually customers (It is actually Bitfinex, Gian Carlo & Paolo doing these moves. If you don't believe me, overlay the Bitfinex long rate with BTC and see the inverse correlation.) Therefore, nothing to report or at-least a small percentage. There are some great court documents explaining this. \^ Bitfinex & Tether move the market a lot. Like a lotttt.. And if you don't understand, watch USDT.D while BTC rises & Drops. Tether prints USDT usually to Pump BTC in the bull, and burns it off after. This is why you see rapid peaks then rapid corrections.

This place also has several dedicated lifelong buttcoiners/BTC haters who make it a point to stop by and use /cc like a punching bag any time it drops. There's also a big concentration of people in this sub specifically that completely ignored Bitcoin for years in lieu of gambling with altcoins/memes because "they'll explode way higher when Alt Season arrives!" and like to lash out against Bitcoin, America, anything they can blame to not reconcile their poor decisions. The same accounts being endlessly bearing are just the most dedicated trolls and destitute gamblers.

I used to own Trezor. Now I use Tangem. The company says it has sold 4 million units since 2018 and maintains that no user funds have ever been lost to a hack. Also…I know I’ll get a lot of hate for saying this, but I have also moved some of my BTC to Fidelity Crypto. Yes, I know it goes against BTC ethos. Sorry, but I like that I can move my profits to Fidelity cash management account and use a Fidelity debit card for everyday purchase.

I think the whole "don't sell" thing is kind of silly It's like any investment, if you actively manage it you can see much better returns. With the recent dip I sold right near the top and bought back in just as it started coming up. I traded a little as it was bouncing up and down before jumping fully back in once it started to climb consistently. Increased my holdings by about 10% without adding more cash in. I don't follow any in depth signals or anything. BTC isn't closely pegged to stock overall but does seem to follow major trends. So when my stock tanked and Bitcoin started to dip I cashed out and bought back in later. I'm holding BTC long term but I'm going to keep trying to buffer my holdings with short term moves like these.

coldfisherman

I think BTC and ETH are both pretty safe bets, but PoW is going to end in a very big way with the advent of the next level of computing. So, I'll keep buying BTC for \~4yrs or so. Then gtfo before things get crazy. Just keep an eye on quantum computing. China is close and using it as a weapon to manipulate world markets is pretty much a given.

When someone says "BTC will go to $1B" they mean today's money, not 50 years from now money.

xXSomethingStupidXx

China banned BTC but still has more active TH on the network than any other country in the world so unless you're in China I don't think it matters. If anything it reinforces that BTC is working as intended.

zzzzzzzzz_zzzzzzzz

I ended up seeing that, but there is also a video of someone hacking the Trezor Safe 1, I bought trezor safe 3 BTC only. Should i return and buy the safe 5 in case ?

adiabatic_storm

Totally agree, although just to play devil's advocate would we be using the same logic if BTC had substantially decreased in value over that same time period? In other words, imagine that the $75M in BTC then was now only worth $7.5M. Do you think the customers would want the $75M or the $7.5M? They'd probably want the $75M and argue that they would have sold at the higher price.

Not retail, retail has always been able to buy crypto directly, the ETFs were literally created to allow for institutions to invest easier into BTC, you know ETF has literally no benefit than simply buying BTC right? instead you even pay more management fees but that's the regulation, banks can't hold crypto directly but can invest into ETF for example.

VariatCA

You never even need to check the charts, you can just scroll down the Daily for a bit and figure it out pretty quick even if nobody directly mentions what price it's at. If BTC drops 0.5%, their group chat lights up and 15 of them are posting here within 5 minutes "HERE IT COMES", "Next leg down inc we're so screwed", "Guess what guys DUMP INC" If one guy posts "nice to see some green candles" with 5 replies telling him to not get comfy and how the crash is any moment now, it's up 0.5%.

spoiler alert, you can't ban BTC

Market makers that are regulated will immediately buy or sell the underlying to remain delta neutral. They make money on bid ask spread, not by holding assets or securities. A market maker will not hold any amount of risk any longer than they have too. They will never be the ones holding the bags when the price drops, but they also won't see a windfall if the price goes up. Not sure what sort of market makers you are talking about, and I'm not sure what sort of BTC market makers exist, but IF they are making money by any means other than bid/ask spread, then you should find another word besides market maker.

"When you look at wider markets, like Gold still extremely high, that is a classic capital flight to safety. They are rotating out of risk-on assets (crypto) and into risk-off assets (like gold)." Everyone thinks the bear market is starting now, it has been a bear market for the past 12 months. The flight already happened, retail interest is gone, volume, activity and engagement is down. BTC is red on the year that means it literally couldn't have been a bull year so the 4 year cycle theory is out of the window but everything besides BTC, not just the risk-off assets like Gold too is up massively on the year, literally everything is up, BTC has been performing the worst out of them, even worse than basic treasury bills. The rotation back will start after December 1st though, with QT ending, crypto bill coming soon, QE starting, election year printing starting and many other bullish catalysts on the horizon. "distribution into retail liquidity." There is no retail left, like none at all, the few retail that is there is simply on the trenches trying to snipe some shitcoins or trading sub $10m mc coins on L2's or Solana. The buyers of BTC are usually highly institutional lately, stuff like MSTR and other treasury companies and ETF inflows.

“It really is wild what compounding and time does if you start early and aggressively.” I’m not saying BTC is a bad investment, but you can’t have compounding with an asset class that doesn’t generate a return.

Due to major institutional investors and their ownership of BTC, you see a little to no activity over the weekends. Plus due to humongous mcap of BTC (around ~2T ) weekend activity of retail investors which may be in couple billions is not enough to move the charts.

DropKikMonkey

Does less than 1% at the moment of writing this… could it be that BTC no longer cares about what the Chinese gov does?

hawkeye224

As long as central banks keep printing, BTC should be fine. Now they appear somewhat reluctant to do this, but I don’t think ultimately they have much choice. The pre-print period is naturally a bit gloomy for BTC

-Baloo

Certainly a lot of them opened shorts above $100k BTC - but it is red across the market and I don't think it holds up when you look at all the assets being traded here. If this were purely hedging spot bags, you’d expect to see neutral or mixed signals with various alts. You don’t typically hedge a speculative memecoin or a volatile alt layer 1 with a massive short position while holding spot long term... you usually just sell the spot. The fact that they are heavily short on high-risk assets suggests they are betting on downside, not just protecting a BTC nest egg. When you look at wider markets, like Gold still extremely high, that is a classic capital flight to safety. They are rotating out of risk-on assets (crypto) and into risk-off assets (like gold). This looks less like a hedge and more like distribution into retail liquidity.

thatoonse24

I asked everyone at TG if they have any BTC. The oldest wealthiest guy in the room said he would never touch the crap. Then they all proceeded to parrot the talk news lines about it and politics. And I just quietly said a prayer 🙏 for them all as we transition into the new system which they could have owned a part of. We don’t get BTC at the price we want we get it at the price we deserve.

Crypto_Sepharial

I been in crypto since 2017. However the short answer is Bitcoin is "PROOF OF WORK" concensus , while ETH is "PROOF OF STAKE" - big difference with these concensus types. ETH doesnt have the ability to be POW, like Bitcoin. I think ETH had a WBTC- which was like a wrapped representation of BTC on ETH platform, but they were only bridged representations of BTC 1:1. Its impossibe for ETH to operate like BTC due to the staking processes.

Skysor99

thank you for the feedback, very useful maybe it is because the video/screenshots show the 'ALL' crypto by default instead of BTC ?

Decent_Procedure2981

Wow. Thanks for your service! That makes a lot of sense and I hope you can see is my current struggle. I have a lot of student debt. A lot of it from graduate school. I was debating when is the right time to sell/to sell. I think your explanation helps me a ton. Maybe sell if you can pay it off a few times over, ex 10x or 5x or whatever it may be. I wonder if the BTC potential has tapered off. I think it will 10x in 10 years-15 years at least though which is good enough for me. If you feel comfortable, can I ask how old are you? I feel like people in your situation have to be 40-50+ years old.

ImNitefall

Anyone else thinking about Bitcoin's moat lately? With all these alt-L1s and new chains, I'm still fascinated how BTC maintains its position. Been in the space since 2017 and nothing has come close to challenging its network effect and brand recognition. What do you think gives Bitcoin its strongest moat?

Just keep stacking BTC because the fiat currency is an illusion 😵💀☠️

generateduser29128

MtGox could have legally kept a ton of BTC since the recovered goods were worth more than the total liabilities at the time of bankruptcy. Mark said he has a moral responsibility and he doesn't want to be afraid for the rest of his life, so they changed it to some civil proceedings where the BTC would be split evenly. All the other bankrupt exchanges I'm aware of just kept the "winnings".

That documentary is from 2024. We are at the end of 2025. Bitfinex coins were moved to [bc1qazcm763858nkj2dj986etajv6wquslv8uxwczt](https://mempool.space/address/bc1qazcm763858nkj2dj986etajv6wquslv8uxwczt) in 2022 and are STILL sitting there. That address is still likely controlled by USG, not Bitfinex. I remember the "hack" and them issuing an in lieu token that could be traded for sats on a coin, and many people dumped theirs and have no claim anymore. People who had a lot of btc definitely got shafted, even if they are still holding the LEO tokens since they are not considered a "victim." But since BTC is still sitting in the USG hack recovery address, there's nothing Bitfinex can do about that yet.

MechRxn

I work in finance, and I’m telling you that you are factually wrong on the % deltas in the market compared to BTC

110010010011

My finances were primed for holding Bitcoin, so I don’t think my path would work for everyone. I am a veteran, so the military set me up for a debt-free adulthood, namely in paying for college and allowing me to borrow for a home at 0% down. By 2015, we had zero in student loans. We had zero in car loans. Our only debt was the mortgage. I think paying off debt is important, but you certainly have to balance expected gains with the interest rate of your debt. For example, I’ve had the cash to pay off my mortgage since 2016. But it would have wiped out all of my BTC and stock, so I never did it. Even when I could pay it off a few times over, I still didn’t do it. Now, I could buy my house in cash nearly 10 times over, even after fifteen years of appreciation. But a mortgage isn’t a car loan or a student loan. I’d be tempted to be a bit more aggressive with those types of debt. I’d also buy a home as soon as it becomes practical, but only if I could let more than half of my savings stay invested after the down payment.

injectionsiteredness

Does your crow predict BTC price action?

danc43

How do I move to cold storage? I have some in Coinbase but most is in Robinhood, like .01 BTC. I set up a daily buy system and just forget about it to let it stack. Am I doing it wrong?

After your first 100 BTC you can buy sats just for fun.

I don't specifically dislike ETH BTW or have some problem with it. And I'm definitely not a BTC MAXIST in the sense of "arghhhhh nothing else can exist" lol. When you say assumptions what did you mean by that out of curiosity? You've been around since BTC was $600 so ill make a presumption that you have a thorough understanding of how BTC works and that an actual protocol fork would take mass consensus, that's an immutable truth. Lastly it's not even that we value different things, I see ETHs value I hold a good amount of it. My reply to you was really triggered by your PoW is garbage comment. Being Pow is the very thing that will keep BTC the number one store of value of any digital asset in the entire crypto sphere. Really lastly lastly why do you hope I'm a wholecoiner 😂? What do you care lol. I've given more BTC away than what most people will ever hold in their life 😉.

CalPERS's experience highlights an important distinction in crypto exposure methods. "Listed proxies" (like investing in MicroStrategy or crypto ETFs) offer institutional investors Bitcoin exposure within traditional frameworks, but they don't eliminate volatility. In fact, these proxies can sometimes amplify price swings due to market sentiment affecting both the underlying asset AND the wrapper company. Direct Bitcoin holdings follow BTC's volatility pattern, while proxy investments can experience compounded volatility from both crypto markets and traditional equity factors. This is why some institutional investors are now considering direct custody solutions despite regulatory hurdles—they want exposure without the additional layers of market risk.

HuyBrogdon

I have .01 BTC. $1 mil price is not bad for 2026.

dutch_85

Obviously BTC, along with actual utility tokens such as ETH, AMP, LINK, etc.

redditjanitor91

true, holding could outpace in the debt in the long term, but I personally wouldn't want debt hanging around that long, so even as a long-term BTC holder who has no plans to sell, I would probably change at least part of that to pay off debt if I had it. that's a fair use of gains. BTC is definitely best used as a "sit and forget" type of investment. I used to check the price all the time, but now I forget about it for long periods of time. I just treat the money as spent and don't consider a part of my liquid funds at all. there was a time when I thought I might have to liquidate most of it temporarily, but then I realized I'd have to pay a shit ton in exchange fees to do so and ended up finding another way, lol

amayle1

I think the winds are blowing in the direction of BTC maximalism. Even ETH has not performed very well. There was a small window to make gains on that this year. So if ETH can’t even hold momentum, and BTC is hanging by a thread, I just don’t see why people would pile into alts. Of course that could change, but I’m not seeing it right now.

Decent_Procedure2981

Sorry meant "it's hard to not spend" esp where I am at in life. Yes student loans are atrocious. That's what makes it hard. Although HODL'ing forever could outpace the 7% interest rate the loans are at (standard for USA as they are from the government:( ). Still a good mentality to have to try to just hold. It sounds you should get BTC or DCA and not think about it at all for 10-15 years and live life. That's hard to do for me as well but seems best.

Decent_Procedure2981

That sounds more realistic, thank you. I hope BTC gives you a happy and splendid retirement.

Post is by: JacobShul and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1p9rjxn/why_are_microcap_narratives_exploding_again/ Lately I’ve noticed something interesting every time BTC shows strength, smaller ecosystems start waking up too. Community-led projects, meme sectors, and early-stage ecosystems are seeing a lot more attention than they did a few months ago. I’m curious how everyone sees this: • Is this a normal rotation as liquidity returns to altcoins? • Or is it just traders chasing volatility while BTC moves slower? • Are AI/agent-based projects influencing sentiment more than before? Not talking about any specific coin just trying to understand the broader market behavior. What are you observing in your watchlists? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Decent_Procedure2981

I 100% agree. And I see it playing out. 100k seems very psychological given the sell off we say. Crazy some of the whales would say "100k or bust." The insane psychological ability to hold is admirable esp when it crashed from 60k to 16k. Even I thought BTC was dead after the intense euphoria when everyones grandma knew about BTC in 2021.

frozen_pipe77

I'm on a marathon to 1BTC

Decent_Procedure2981

I believe in the vision! But look, if you have 5-10 coins when BTC hit 100k, you are staring at 1 million. That's insane. You can buy a house+car and cash out. You could save 2 BTC for retirement, work part time to cover property taxes/food/car upgrade in 5-10 years. Isn't that tempting?

Decent_Procedure2981

That's brilliant.It's cool that you are willing to work toward car/house and save BTC. That implies you have to have some money to afford lifestyle. I like that you will hold out for better though. A lot of people I think would sell earlier but then they lose out. So it is "greed" in the sense it is "long term gambling." The longer you hold the more it is worth (most likely). I imagine this holds through until retirement age, around 65 in the USA people will cash out.

RockHardnParty

This concept has been talked about by AmericanHODL often. He calls it the Bitlife crisis. To sum it up, every Bitcoiner gets to a point where they are no longer acquiring sats at the rate that they did when they first started. That being said, the is still no other place better to put your money than Bitcoin. To me, it still makes sense to continue stacking as every dollar I put away today will be worth significantly more in the future. I am not stacking as aggressively as I was (living in a camper rent free and liquidating my life savings to buy BTC), but I continue to DCA and save in Bitcoin. My struggle now is to find balance between long term thinking and loving in the immediate to short term. There is no one size fits all answer, and it is up to you to decide what you need to prioritize within your life. Looking to the future is admirable and great, but time is fleeting and life is about enjoying the present and sharing experiences with those you love. ~A diligent HODLer since 2020

BTC cannot go over $5.5M per BTC or it would exceed world GDP

Pinewatch762

I get that you’re committed to the bitcoin maxi framing, but none of this changes my viewpoint. Ethereum’s monetary policy, security model, and utility are exactly why I prefer it, and I’m not interested in arguing narratives back and forth. You’re treating assumptions as immutable truth, and I’m simply not buying into that worldview. We clearly value different things in a network, and that’s fine. I hope you’re one of the few whole coiners in this sub. I could’ve bought BTC when it was $600. But i chose ETH instead when it was just over $13. And i know i made the better choice in the long run. Regardless, i hope we both exit the matrix.

Can someone explain me the hate? He is referring to the broader population, that don’t understand money and value even in the broader sense, swolloing the inflation, instead of holding hard assets. If the Everyman would see the value, BTC would explode. And he is trying to explain it as much as much as humanly possible, doesn’t mean people listen, care or understand. But I am curious what a bear market will do to strategy.

I use P2P on Binance to buy USDT and then convert to BTC

Decent_Procedure2981

That makes sense, but it's hard to spend money you don't "need" but could still use once it goes up. Example: If I saw my 10k BTC go to 100k in 2018, I might want to get a new car or pay off student loans, etc.

What happens if they figure a way with quantum computing to subdivide a Bitcoin to infinity? That is always a possibility. No, a satoshi (the smallest unit of Bitcoin [](https://www.perplexity.ai/finance/BTCUSD), or 0.00000001 BTC) cannot be subdivided on the base Bitcoin blockchain, as the protocol limits divisibility to eight decimal places with 100,000,000 satoshis per BTC.[investopedia+2](https://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/satoshi.asp)​ # Layer 2 Workarounds Lightning Network enables milli-satoshis (1/1,000th of a sat) for microtransactions, rounding back to whole sats on settlement—extending practical use without altering base protocol.[reddit+1](https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1760gng/is_it_possible_that_satoshi_can_be_divided_into/)​ # Future Possibilities Protocol upgrades (soft/hard fork) could add decimals (e.g., pico-bitcoins) using unused script ops, but consensus is unlikely soon given 2.1 quadrillion sats suffice even at $1M+ BTC value.[bitfinity+2](https://www.blog.bitfinity.network/understanding-bitcoins-divisibility-who-said-you-cant-split-a-bitcoin/)​

Hidden5G

The article was about Bitcoin’s Coinbase premium flipping positive..that’s what the entire discussion was referring to. Dropping ETH has usage into a Bitcoin specific point doesn’t refute anything. Ethereum having some activity doesn’t magically give Bitcoin utility, and it doesn’t change the fact that BTC’s price movements right now are overwhelmingly speculation driven. If anything, your comment proves the point..real utility only matters when it creates broad, sustained, real world demand..not isolated ecosystems, not hype cycles, and not selective examples.

Holding 100% BTC is that room temp IQ bud? I dont have to listen to wealthy people to understand bitcoin I just dont know what he's talking about on this.. Fuckin daft pratt

Havokmoobii

Actually, you're noticing a real trend. Bitcoin trading volume typically drops 10-15% on weekends because tradfi institutions (including ETFs) don't operate. The "weekend effect" has become more pronounced since institutional money started flowing in. Pre-2021, weekends sometimes saw volatile price action because retail dominated, but now BTC increasingly follows traditional market patterns. Last month, weekend volume was down 18% compared to weekdays. This doesn't mean retail has disappeared - we're just seeing the ongoing institutionalization of Bitcoin. Check trading volume charts to confirm this pattern.

moneyman567

Totally feel this journey, man. Went through the same evolution from "crypto curious" to BTC focused. Those early altcoin lessons were expensive tuition fees! Your point about aggressive investing in your 20s/30s hits home - wish I'd stacked sats instead of buying that car in 2018. Time in the market really is the ultimate strategy.

I sold my BTC when it was $3,900 back around '16/'17 to pay off a credit card... bad ROI but I didn't know what I didn't know at the time. It went up to $16k almost right after I sold.

Look at the BTC/ALT pair charts. There are times when. Alts outperform BTC

Ir0nman123

Very sad bull run… doubt the future bull cycles will interest anyone really. BTC won’t hit 200k unless the institutions push it there. Bitcoin isn’t what it once was.

reliable35

Thankfully comfortable. But was a genesis ETH validator that cashed his chips out in January 2025. Plus again in 2021. So for me it’s work out great. Now I leave a large position in a single Alt I have high conviction in.. if it works out. Great but equally if not.. 🤷🏼‍♂️.. For most just adding BTC steadily is the best bet.. 70-80%.. then the rest pick a few Alts.. that way.. you still capture the upside of both.. & if Alts wreck you.. which is let’s face it.. I high chance… you haven’t thrown out the baby with the bath water….

“i get people to give me money to buy BTC and I don’t ever have to pay them back”

Spirited_Syllabub488

Forget BTC spot. I developed a model based on BTC which outperforms BTC by many multiples. I am looking for buyers of the model.. I can say following the signals given by the model will not drain your account but it will give unimaginable profits. I just dont have enough money to invest in. But i managed to get 140% trading the model in 7 months. If anyone is interested message me I will provide the model report. For context if BTC dropped by 60% my model will only drop by 25%; and if BTC give 100% spot return my model will give around 400%. Just message me. I will use the money to invest in the same model.

MrMoo151515

Following. OP I’m in the same boat as you. I’ve been reading up a lot on BTC lately and started buying BTCC etf through wealth simple. Going to continue to do so long term. I’m not ready to buy BTC and store in a cold wallet. For some reason I just feel like I’ll fuck it up somehow. But I’ve been Buying BTC additionally through Wealth Simple. I know it’s expensive and there’s a 1.5-2% spread. But they manage all the keys for me. It also gives me the option to withdraw the BTC down the road to self custody (albeit with fees). But it will at least keep me exposed to the actual BTC when I decide to do it. Going to continue to do so and aiming for BTC to be 10% of my portfolio for now.

I suggest relying on something like ***GoMining app*** for mining BTC without hassle. If you want to give it a try, I can provide you with my **Referral code** (you can find it on my Profile). That grants you a 5% discount on 1st miner purchase. Cheers. b.

The BTC elders foretold that when the Ninth Circle intersects the Forbidden Arc, the Bull would rise. We are close, brothers.

Nice story! What happens when someone pulls the plug in the ocean (fiat replaced by BTC)?

Pure copegpt slop The bull market funeral already happened. Its a Bitcoin bear market and this year BTC isn't storing value anymore. But go on, tell us how Newtonian physics and worldviews break economist's brains

BTC and maybe SOL. Don't trust other projects, and mainly invest in BTC (90% of your crypto bag) and thank me later

Also how many of us will still be alive in 2062? Best to focus on short-medium term where BTC will likely return above 100K and just see from there....

CBDCs could definitely change the game, but it all depends on how they're implemented. If they really push for widespread adoption, having some BTC could be a hedge against that system. Still, I'd keep an eye on regulatory changes too.

I prefer channels that have the word bitcoin in their name, so that I know they're not about shitcoins. I like channels that do not use clickbaity thumbnails - What Bitcoin Did is good on this point. And I like videos that are densely packed with information, no waffle or chit chat. BTC Sessions is another good one. I used to really like Bitcoin University until it went off the rails.

I agree that BTC can go to 10B, but it may take a little while.
