BTC and/or ETH, hold. Offline hardware wallet.
85k. Bought at the ATH and have been averaging down ever since. I have complete and utter conviction in BTC so I just keep stacking more every pay day regardless.
I'm not sure that BTC is the right asset for you.
You're assuming “becoming the world's currency necessarily means the U.S. government has to surrender the dollar first. That's not how monetary transitions have historically worked. The dollar itself became the dominant global currency without every country formally abandoning its own currency. If Bitcoin becomes sufficiently useful as a neutral global settlement asset, store of value, and unit of account, adoption can happen independently of what the U.S. government wants. And saying “it'll just be a reserve asset” doesn't really defeat the argument it could be the intermediate stage. If enough countries, institutions, and individuals hold and transact in BTC, the network effects can eventually make it increasingly relevant for actual payments. You're treating today's monetary system as if it's permanent. Twenty years is an extremely long time in monetary history. The question isn't whether the U.S. wants to surrender monetary sovereignty it's whether technological and economic incentives could make the existing system increasingly irrelevant
Well if everyone here wants to pretend that BTC isn't fully dependent on the value of USD... Then yes. Everyone's an idiot but me.
Oh ok so I'm right and the value of BTC rising is nothing to be excited about because all it means is we are in a recession. Got it. Thanks.
Buy S&P500 instead. BTC is much more overvalued than something real like the S&P. If you want action just buy levered ETFs. Not BTC. Don't be someone else's sucker liquidity.
You don't get it... What bro none of you get it..... If the USD becomes worthless can't you see why having a token worth 80,000 of that worthless currency is... Worthless? It's so crazy to me how stupid so many of you are about this.... This isn't like complicated economics.... It's literally the fact of what Bitcoin is. Why do you people think BTC is it own independent currency? It's not. It's like a casino chip. The chip itself is worthless outside the casino but in the casino it's valuable because it's tied to real money.
> Could the value of BTC be rising because the value of the USD is falling? Yes, but that is not the only factor that could cause a rise in the price of bitcoin relative to the dollar. Another would be an increase in demand for bitcoin - absent any decrease in the purchasing power of the dollar.
It's a common mistake every newcomer makes when they buy a whole salad of crypto hoping to get one that will 100x. If it were me, I'd just pick 4-5 that you like the most, with BTC being the highest percentage. And as the other commenter said, most of those will move with BTC.
Concept? It's not a concept. It's the fact of what BTC is.
I'm blown away at the ignorance.... If 1 BTC is equal to $81,000 USD that means BTCs worth is completely dependent on the USD.... Why is this so hard for so many people to understand?
Just because you traded USD for BTC does not mean that Bitcoin value is measured in US Dollar
I don't think you understand what I'm saying. I don't think you understand the value of BTC is based on how much USD it's worth...
Why do so many people not seem to understand that the value of BTC is tied directly to USD? With no USD there is no BTC...
If you’re in the USA, get a Coinbase account and get the Coinbase One card. You’ll start off getting 2% BTC rewards. It’s an amazing way to DCA. Between monthly BTC buys and your BTC DCA credit card rewards, you’ll move up to the 2.5 and 3% tiers within a year or so. Then, within 5-10 years, you’ll have a whole BTC or more. Then, wait and continue to stack. If you need to liquidate it, it will be there. If you don’t need it, just continue to add to your rainy day fund
1 BTC is worth 1 BTC Try and keep up old chap.
Are you talking about lower inflation (lower rate of price increases in fiat) OR deflation ( lowers prices in fiat). Regardless you probably want to be thinking about the real price of BTC, think about how much real stuff you can buy with 1BTC. In a deflationary environment sure the BTC price might decrease but since things cost less you could buy equivalent amount of things. The Big Mac index is way to think of this: how many big macs can be bought for 1BTC. You become richer when the price of BTC goes up OR the price of big macs goes down.
And what is the current worth of 1 BTC?
I've been an Avax bagholder for years. I've been trying to convince myself it wasn't just another shitcoin. But at some point, there was no amount of copium that could work anymore. This is more of a short term play on volatility. I wouldn't bet Avax on being the future of blockchain. In fact, blockchain as it stands today is probably not enough of a technology. BTC sort of work as some digital gold. Ethereum for smart contracts. But the real future is with some new technology that will combine AI, blockchain, and quantum computing. None of the current chains are it.
No need to send money or BTC. As the name implies, these are public faucets so no need to pay. Practice receiving testnet btc from the faucet and you practice sending by returning testnet btc to the faucets or any other testnet wallet that you create. Any mistakes that you make on testnet won't cost you money.
Margex is one of the platform i'd compare if youre taking the short. before that, though, i'd want to see BTC confirm the setup rather than entering just because the macro picture looks bearish
keep it extremely simple: pure BTC or a 80/20 BTC/ETH split. since you don't want to follow news or trade, avoiding altcoins entirely will save you a lot of headache
Two separate questions get tangled here: why ETH is up, and why your other coins are down. For the second one, a useful check is to stop measuring in USD for a minute and measure each holding against ETH or BTC. A lot of the long tail has been bleeding against the majors for a couple of years regardless of headlines - liquidity and narrative rotate, and when nothing rotates into your bucket there just isn't a bid. ETH had its own flows this window, so it decoupled from the tail. None of that tells you what to buy or sell, but 'my coins are broken' vs 'my coins are the wrong beta bucket' are different problems, and the second one is the more common answer.
Hey, I forgot, what is the value of BTC based on again?
Approximately 10% above 50w. In the past BTC has broken above 50w and rallied 10% above but still in a bear market
Post is by: olyvian and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1wlj5ro/i_built_a_site_so_i_can_understand_the_crypto/ Every site I used shows the market a few coins at a time, and I wanted to see the whole thing. So I built a site which has the whole top \~1000 on one page, with a bar at the bottom that rewinds the ranking to any day this year and plays it forward. You can look up one coin's RSI anywhere, but I could never see whether that coin was oversold or the whole market was. So there's an indicators page where every coin in the top 1000 is a small dot with its logo on one chart, rank along the bottom, RSI up the side, and the zones are coloured so you can see how much of the market is overbought or oversold. Same timeline bar at the bottom, drag it to any day this year or press play. I can't attach an image here, so this link opens the chart set to June 8, the most oversold day this year, with 1000-ish coins on it: [https://coingmi.com/indicators/?d=2026-06-08&n=1000](https://coingmi.com/indicators/?d=2026-06-08&n=1000) That day 28% of all coins were under RSI 30 and another 36% under 40. BTC, ETH, SOL, ADA, LTC and AVAX all in the oversold band. You can drag a box around a bunch of coins to follow them, and the bar shows their average change from that day as you play forward. I drew a box around everything oversold on June 8 and pressed play to today: those 204 coins are up 67.7% on average (192 of them are still in the top 1000, the ones that dropped out aren't counted, and it's an average, so a few coins that did 10x pull it up). Obviously June 8 turned out to be about the best day to buy anything this year, so don't read too much into it. The point is you can try it on any day and with any set: the overbought ones, the top 100, one sector. There are 15 indicators in the picker, RSI is just the one everyone knows. MACD against its signal line went in this week, so you can see what share of the market is above its signal line on any day (it went from 88% to 9% inside a month at the start of the year). Also distance from the 90-day average, how far below the one-year high, correlation and beta to Bitcoin, 30-day change against Bitcoin's, volume vs the month before, etc. You can show the top 100, 200, 500 or all 1000, and the coins you follow stay highlighted when you switch. I'm looking for feedback, so if there's something you'd want added, or something that would make this more useful for you or others, let me know! *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

BTC & ETH, and nothing else.
1. Buy BTC with $400. 2. Use it as collateral. Borrow 25%. Sweep that into a brokerage account, buy high cash flow ETFs like QQQI. Not long term good as pure index exposure but short term high cash flow. 3. Take the 1% monthly dividend, DCA fee switch altcoins. Look at the gas guzzler lists and buy what people pay to use. Ex. UNI, AAVE, ARB, SOL, LINK, etc. anything with already on fee switch and revenue.
Just take out a loan against your BTC…
If you want the safe way with less upside go BTC and ETH. If you want something with more upside then look on altcoins that are in the top 50 or top 100, make sure they are not memecoins, have a working project behind them, a trending narrative, good tokenomics and either put all your available money on one, or diversify and hold long term. For example some of my goins i will hold long term and dca on them are LINK, HBAR, TRAC, NEAR, TAO. I am not mentioning them to influence you. Do your own research. I dont know if its a good entry point now. But if youre gonna hold long term and dca on any coin you choose then it doesnt matter.
Probably just referring to end of October seasonality since Q4 has historically been decent for BTC. Doesn't really have anything to do with the chain itself, more market sentiment stuff.
You have to give your exact value at 1 january 0:00 hours. If BTC is at 200K, you are basically fucked. Welcome to the Netherlands i guess.
Just DCA the whole $400 into BTC every month and don't overthink it. Splitting with ETH sounds more "balanced" but for beer money it's really just doubling your setup and security surface for a diversification benefit that barely matters at this size. Most exchanges let you automate recurring buys so it runs itself. Only real thing worth doing manually every year or two is moving it off the exchange into your own wallet once it adds up to something you'd actually care about losing. Past that, just set it and forget it is the whole strategy.
50% BTC / 50% alt-coins - this is always working great for me.
All BTC, cold wallet, forget the password exists for 5 years. The thing nobody says: write down your seed phrase on paper twice and store them in two different physical locations. Losing keys ruins more people than bad picks ever did.
Are you completely regarded? In which world is BTC moving downwards?
> I *think* Bisq provides that option In its way, yes. The trade protocol requires both parties to lock up the BTC being traded, along with their security deposits with a script requiring both to sign to release the funds. But the script also includes a path that can be used after some number of days if dispute resolution fails, giving the funds to the Bisq DAO; after that, an arbitrator comes in and decides the proper resolution. The arbitrator pays out with their own funds and then seeks compensation from the DAO, so they are financial incentivized to do the right thing. (There's a bit more, too, but I don't want to make this explanation overly long.)
That’s right—it is impossible to correctly predict its every move at all times, but one can predict the trend, and the trend for BTC is upward.
Yeah,the one time I had to use Bitcoinmat. There was a basic use fee, terrible exchange rate for USD( I am in Czech) and then even worse rate for BTC. I calculated all of it afterwards and it came to 19.5%. Lesson learned.
>Can the US control bitcoin? No, they cannot. >https://x.com/1914ad/status/2100970224661008553?s=46&t=18yYh2YXkfndk0YzoQlMlA Refer to the post. Trying to understand what is the point of bitcoin if one country could restrict its use for people or an entity. The post says: "⚠️ Iran is still using Bitcoin to bypass sanctions and it’s a worst-case scenario, handing the United States the perfect weapon for further control of $BTC" All the government can do it standing at the **legally operated** gates to and from the Bitcoin world and stopping anyone to cross the gate. They cannot stand/restrict anyone using the P2P gates, nor anyone, using bitcoin on the network. Just have a look at the country that managed to build the Great Firewall to stop using random websites like Google/Facebook/Twitter. China banned Bitcoin multiple times, yet people keep ignoring the bans and keep mining/using Bitcoin as they feel.
Here is the only definitive take: Chill out, no one actually knows F all. Wanna invest, invest, don't want to? Don't. If you are sitting on BTC, stay seated and just hope for the best, as that's all you can do, because you can't predict this BS.
On the block chain it's actually 1,000s of addresses with about 50 BTC in each. They are referred to as the Patoshi cluster. It's not just 1 fat address with 1.1million BTC.
Thanks - I think I'll just play it safe and get BTC
The heat comparison is fair. Nearly all of the 450W ends up as heat either way, but the miner returns some BTC while it is running. The real question is whether the extra purchase cost, noise and changing mining difficulty still make sense compared with a basic heater. For an office that already needs heat, 30 TH/s at 450W is at least an interesting trade-off.
If the CIA did create BTC as you concluded, then it could dump on the whole world anytime, see?
Buy one of the top three. BTC, ETH, or SOL. Everything else is basically irrelevant
$BTC no thought needed. Buy and hold.
Every time BTC pumps after you bought months ago you feel like the master planner Madara Uchiha "Hashirama, you fiat savings account user, I will walk a greater path towards the light, and on that journey I will enjoy the debates with you about wether bitcoin or fiat is better"
I'm just sitting here with my .1BTC that I won from a $50 pack of Currency cards.
Buy "Mastering Bitcoin" by Andreas M. Antonopoulos for 25 USD Wair until you understand how crypto work Buy a hardware wallet like Ledger or Trezor roe about 100 USD Buy 100 USD of BTC Learn about Smart Contracts, cheap Udemy courses are available for around 25 USD Buy ETH for 125 USD. Buy POL, SOL or ADA for 25 USD. Dabble with smart contracts. Buy two cryptkitties and start a cat farm. The last one wasn't entirely serious. The rest is.
I own 0.02BTC and I live in France, I've never seen anyone else holding and I know if I tell my friends about it they're gonna make fun of me saying I'm delusional for thinking it will make me rich (I don't think that btw)
You mean everyone who sold their car and house yesterday to buy BTC after it pumped
I don't think there is any logical reason for BTC to fall below the cost of mining. It wouldn't make sense.
THanks, yea I think I'll just do that, look for little BTC drops and buy
Step 1.) Everytime when BTC gets a dropdown - Buy some. 2.) But with 400 right now, ETF - world and wait for the tech stock to crash than buy em
75% BTC 25% ETH would probably be your best bet. Or just 100% BTC,
I wish everyone in this sub would be required to say how Much BTC they are holding so we all know who to pay attention to and who is full of shit
So what you're saying is dollar is on the decline and no matter how much we chase it it's will always keep getting lower...🤔 Gotcha... Good job we have BTC then eh? 😉
Any answer other than BTC is the wrong answer.
I don’t know when it will drop and im not saying it will be this year…I don’t have $100k to my name so I can’t bet you that…but i do know it’s not done dropping the historical winter has been 80%-77% and dropping so I settled for 75% from BTC’s ATH there isn’t enough despair theres too much hope and energy for it to be the bottom or of been the bottom I’ve been in BTC since February of 2021 put my stimulus into BTC I consider myself seasoned and i have been watching since Groxx
True. I believe someone wise said, “The day that BTC becomes different, it won’t be during a bear market, but a bull market that makes it different.”
Remember at one point it was $1,200 and at another it was almost $120k. I had one guy telling me to stack BTC when it was $100k. Only buy what you can afford to lose.
Sell. Sell. Sell. Get rid of it. Sell it all. If you want BTC, buy the ETF. But do not hold any bitcoin. Or crypto. Don't. They're onto you. And they WILL lock you down and DESTROY YOUR SOUL. THE MIGHTY, GREAT, EVIL OVERLORDS COMMAND YOU TO SELL!!!!
Cautiously optimistic for cheaper BTC?
And yet people have made a ton of money shorting BTC
Your problem is you bought and held a duffle bag of feces. If you had bought and held BTC only, you’d be way more excited right now.
You want to buy BTC from someone on the internet? What is the advantage over an exchange?
Not to mention no one said October 1... We still have like 50 days to see what happens amidst all the macro uncertainty. If stonk market tags a 10% + dive then that is easier 30% + drop in BTC
Is that when BTC was steer peer to peer in the white paper? Relax guy, I’m sure you’ll make a nice ROI on your half BTC
How about LAPTOP? Just kidding, of course. I would probably say stick with BTC.
There will be a dip at some point it just won't be anywhere 40k BTC and these people will then miss the last entry, cope some more for a few months and then finally pile in months late. Its really funny because it happens every single time yet sideliners still think they are smart
Yes. If/when I sell some BTC, I will likely use Fidelity or Coinbase pro/advanced or whatever they call it.
BTC + ETH (and maybe some XMR). Get some BC3 as "practice" if you're not comfortable with BTC yet: https://bc3.network
I’m not what anyone would consider a tech guy. I figure I’d fuck it up at some point if I keep it in a wallet. I’m not worried about Fidelity going under. But iv they had a breach and people lost BTC due to Fidelity’s fault, what do you think would happen?
I moved my BTC to Coinbase after that fiasco. I trust them more than myself at this point. Self-custody is great, but is not without significant risks.
Everyone on Reddit says cold wallet storage is the way, but this guy I’ve talked to in real life who’s been holding BTC for years doesn’t think it matters.
Venmo is not an exchange. They have no order book, no limit orders and high fees. Why would you even want to buy BTC through a Paypal company? There are a lot of better and cheaper alternatives.
I don't buy from venmo. But I have their credit card, so I get BTC in rewards from them every month. In addition to my regular purchases on River, I've been able to stack a tidy little sum. The one downside as others have mentioned is they have a pretty wide spread. I don't keep it on venmos exchange, but it's been a nice way to add to my stack from my daily spending.
Funny you ask why I want to argue lol. You are on Reddit my man. People here tend to discuss - apparently much like you. I debate because what you say doesn't make any sense. Bitcoin does not need momentum. Daytraders need it. I don't care about momentum bc I - like most OG - am convinced BTC will improve over time and chasing tops and bottoms eventually only depletes my stash.
Gave up about 2 years ago. BTC is the only show in town crypto wise.
"Addresses with more than 1 BTC in them > individuals with keys to these addresses" doesn't prove their point. OP and the author of the tweet claim it's rarer to own one Bitcoin than it is to have one's own Wikipedia page. We don't know how many people hold one Bitcoin, but it's possible that the number is as high as 2.4 million so it's possible that there are more people who own 1 Bitcoin than there are people who have their own Wikipedia page.
Kaspa. TAO. BTC.
"Being in the scene" doesn't protect you in any way from taking stupid decisions - and I am aware you took stupid decisions because everyone who enters the scene did. I learned it the hard way when I bought my first BTC at 100 USD and felt like a freakin wizard when selling at 150. No matter what, momentum is relevant for those who want to make a quick buck. Bitcoin doesn't care and neither do hodlers.
Which only proves the point. Addresses with more than 1 BTC in them > individuals with keys to these addresses.
I got BTC from satoshi!!!! Boom
I got BTC from mt Gox if you wanna measure dicks otherwise go away brokie
You never watched the BTC chart, have you?
Yes anything can happen. The point is what is the percentage of probabilities of them occurring. There were so many events this year unlike other bears that should've cause BTC to go to 40k or even 30k but didn't so the odds get slimmer as each day passes. Up is down and down is up under inflationary pressures. Common sense outcome should definitely be ignored under such environment precisely because it is not a rational environment and expecting rational outcomes end up leaving folks behind. Michael Burry is right in an irrational/illogical market due to one factor: inflation. The can can and will always be kicked down the road. Crashes aren't as deep and recoveries are faster.
I think that the bulk of people that are “invested” in crypto aren’t long term holders. Either due to volatility or external factors. I know if I lost my job tomorrow I would start by selling off my riskiest assets first which for me would be my BTC. I think alot of people would think this way. There would be an economic downtrend of btc before the broader market is affected.
But you answered to yourself. You bought at their ATH. That means if their ATH wont be reached and over it then they wont turn green. I joined crypto back in july for the first time. At that time i was lucky that BTC was at 55000 i think and most alts were low. I bought also hbar. Now mine are in the green zone because i bought low and now they rose up. Its simple as that. If BTC is high people are more comfortable putting their money in alts. If BTC drops they sell. Same with ETH. But an altcoin could also rise up even if BTC and ETH are low cause it might get adopted the project behind it and demand of the coin increases.... So if your entries are at the ATH then to go 8n the green zone they need to surpass their ATH.
Everything he's said here is an accurate recounting of what he's been saying for years. People are strawmaning him since BTC has bottomed early. He most definitely was not and has never been someone to say bitcoin will and must bottom on x date, but people are trying to shoehorn him into that box. It's not fair. But that's what comes with being a big, public facing name in markets. I did some math on the 4 year cycle for my own consideration of what remains of its predictive power, and I want to point out that on the scale of 4 years, bottoming in July vs. bottoming in October is a matter of 6% difference. I personally don't think that's enough of a dispersion to sweep it into the dust bin of history but rather reframe it as it always should have been understood: a general theory of market behavior with a decent track record vs. gospel on when btc tops and bottoms.
