You seem to know me, Boomer, exactly. BTW, are you a snowflake?
I do not care about the place of purchase. Or where OP lives. Or where he/she needs to pay taxes. The reason of my answer was to raise awareness that you don't need to pay taxes on crypto gains automatically. It depends. BTW, it's Düsseldorf.
And remember "Bitcoin is rat poison" - Warren Buffet. BTW, it is, because it actually will get rid of politicians, scammers, and criminal governments.
1. Part of why gold is a relatively poor hedge is that it itself is inflationary. Roughly 2% gets added to the supply every year, that's about 5000 TONS yearly. The official inflation rate of the USD over the past 20 years is around 2.3% yearly, so its not hard to see why it doesn't perform THAT well. And yet, gold was selling around $450/oz in 2005, while SPY was about $120. So, this non-productive metal has still handily outperformed the S&P. Yes, the belief is that "Bitcoin’s value proposition that it's a highly undervalued form of digital gold that will eventually reach its intrinsic value and then grow more slowly, like gold does? " Both because Bitcoin is still quite speculative compared to gold, and because of its many superior qualities (deflationary, portable, verifiable, secure). How do you determine what the intrinsic value is? We just can't, only the market can compute that, over many years. All good questions BTW, ignore anyone saying otherwise.
4. A pizza is infinitely divisible. There I solved world hunger! "Infinite divisibility" is an IQ test which you and thousand others failed. The premise is also false BTW.
100% totally agree! XMR is being used every day, and increasing every day. When people want to spend their crypto wealth they use Monero. Fungibility is essential to money. BTC for wealth creation, and Monero for complete financial privacy. Monero is still good for wealth creation as well BTW.
12 days ago you encouraged people to take profits BTW
I didn't say anything about trusting. I verify. And I certainly don't trust some random newcomer coming in "there's something wrong, I'm here to fix it and BTW I got censored and Core is corrupt!!1". >both sides made good points That is mathematically impossible when they are saying the extreme opposites on a purely technical logical issue. It's not a political debate, dummy. It's clear that you are the ignorant one who doesn't know the logical conclusion and is relying on trust to decide. And that's when you let yourself get suckered to the point that you reverse "technical" to be "emotional" and vice versa. Pathetic. Maybe you should educate yourself on the Block Size Wars (it's a book even). Back then emotional morons were saying the same bullshit. And a loud screaming minority was suckering ignorant sheep into attacking Bitcoin. Hint: the silent majority is silent because they've seen this shit many times before and can't be bothered wasting their time repeating the same thing. Peter was an exception in that debate but you could tell he was already tired of it there. nullc is generally an exception here on reddit. Most others don't bother anymore.
BTC is between 5 and 6% shy of its ATH, BTW
DONT DO IT… I promise it won’t be worth it. If ur going to invest in ‘Alt coins’ U better be VERY careful. Invest in ETH. XRP, HBAR, SOL Sure. But anything else is quite sketchy & skeptical of possible rug pulls. U do u tho, but I play my crypto game safe. I don’t invest in ‘alt coins’ & if I do it’s $ I wouldn’t care if I lost. BTW: I own quite a few coins & have owned them. So u do u, but be VERY careful Trust ur intuition, do ur research FIRST
BTW, that miner in the picture is a S19 Pro that will only do 105-110Th/s at lower efficiency than the XP. It wouldn't be profitable in most situations where you pay for electricity.
I'm enjoying this convo BTW. Long reply to a long reply: >First of all the wealthy dont own the central banks. Speaking for the Federal Reserve, (since I'm American) the wealthy definitely own it. It sure ain't the poor!😅. Despite the name, The Fed, is neither Federal, nor do they have any reserves. It is an independent central bank that operates within the U.S. government but is not directly controlled by it. The 12 regional bank are owned by its PRIVATE member banks (JP Morgan Chase, Bank of America. Goldman Sachs etc.) So the next question is, who owns those member banks? Wealthy people. The top 10% of U.S. households by wealth own ~89% of all stocks. Within that, the top 1% alone own over 50% of all equities, including banks. These are just facts. This is why the wealthy like inflation, and intentionally dont explain it correctly to the poor. Deflate the currency (which they have the most of), allow the government to run up massive debts (since they dont need to pay it, cause they can just print more money), and as the currency inflates, hard assets go up (which they own the most of). This may sound conspiratorial but again, it's just facts. I can see the value of having a central bank in case of major financial disasters, but it's a double edged sword. They also printed more money when the world wanted to go to total war twice in the 20th century...not to mention the US going to town on Iraq (2x), Afghanistan, damn near every country in central/south America, and of course Vietnam (which pushed Nixon to close the gold windows. >Your argument is a common one in Bitcoin circles and is one that i would call a conspiracy theory quite frankly. The argument is real. Inflation devalues currency. So people have to speculate in stocks, real estate, etc to maintain purchasing power. But if the wealthy own 89% of the stocks...For the record I do love a good conspiracy theory but only the true ones. >Supply and demand dont ensure Bitcoin will outperform other assets in the future, neither does its track record of the past 15 years. Thats my point, just because Bitcoin has a fixed supply doesnt mean it will grow in value and certainly not that it will outperform other assets. Correct. The past performance DOES NOT GUARANTEE (100%) that btc will duplicate its track record for the last 15 years. I'm not giving a 100% guarantee, because nothing is promised. What I am saying that it's natural for humans to want to save their value in the best store of value. The best store of value (measured in percentage gain)over the last 15 years has been btc. Just a fact. Will it continue to outpace every other major asset in the world over the next 15 years? I can't say 100% that it will, but based on on its past performance, it's current fundamentals, and the current global macroeconomic situation, I think btc will continue to out perform. >There are a bunch of other assets with fixed supply out there, Like what? Real estate is definitely not fixed. I'm not sure where you live, but I see new houses, and buildings under construction every day. Towns grow outwards, turn into cities, suburbs get connected and turn into a metropolis. If the city is superspecial they build skyscrapers and stack real estate on top of each other. If there value in the area but the need the land, they drain the area like the Netherlands, or build islands like have in Dubai. People have a VERY hard time understanding a finite supply. Limited supply and finite are similar, but not the same. There are only 21 million btc. Don't matter if you really want one, you can't just make one like you build a house in the suburbs. >Bitcoin doesnt have superior monetary properties Yeah it does. These are the properties below: Scarcity Divisibility Portability Durability Verifiability Fungibility Gold has better durability since it's been around for thousands of years, but other than that, btc is a better form of money because it wins the others with the advantage of being digital. It's not the best form of currency at the moment because it's still rapidly appreciating since it's a novel asset. I'm telling you man. Get a list of all your doubts/concerns, and try to prove them wrong. If you go deep enough, you'll find an answer to every concern you have. But if you want to be dogmatically opposed just because...that's fine too. If you want any info, let me know!
I think you'd benefit watching this, https://youtu.be/19LA7ReARCQ It's about 3 part 20 min each. Welcome to bitcoin BTW.
You are the one with the understanding issues you already admitted that i never did so you cant diss me with that lol. My second message was about the top all you have to do is go back and look which you are to afraid to do now because you know it makes you look really bad. You misunderstand what i was talking about even after i explained what i was talking about which was the top. Thats on you i dont have an issue which i never said i did anyway. BTW you also said you would let me have the last word like an hour ago but yet you keep talking so you cant even keep your word and stfu lol.
Well there are many inconsistencies for those arguments. - code style is easy to fake, - satoshi used British spelling, but in stylometrics tests similarity is high. Also Satoshi used BTW in one reply, which is almost unknown in British English at that time, - Finney had children, which explains why he obsessed with anonymity if he is satoshi. - satoshi obsessed with anonymity. I believe satoshi is a group rather than one person. But if its one person, then there isn't any person that even have a chance to be satoshi if you exclude Finney. And those arguments only increases the likelihood of Finney being satoshi because satoshi was obsessed with anonymity, those tasks are so easy to fake, thus exactly what I come up with if I was hiding my identity.
BTW, opium was effectively vaporized. Heated indirectly to create vapors which were inhaled. Not huffed. Dumbass
Look no further than the three available cryptos fidelity offers for their IRAs. Ltc is one of them, because they know what the fuck they are doing. Ltc is the number one crypto for payments on bitpay, the largest processor for crypto payments. It's the most similar to btc than any other crypto, hard capped at 84 mil. Coins. It's literally bitcoin but better....except for security.. which BTW is still really good and getting better everyday. It's a no brainer...
You are welcome. BTW this also applies to addresses after july 2010 that were used more then once. If you made a withdrawal from an address and then received more deposits into that address, the coins left in that address would also be vulnerable for quantum attacks. So don't leave them there;)
Because I no longer play those games. It was in interesting lifestyle, but very tiresome after a while. Nowadays, I volunteer teach, ski the Rockies, and ride my motorcycles - makes for a much better life. BTW, Michael Lewis was a close friend of my mentor’s and interviewed me when he was writing The Big Short because I knew and had worked with all the major characters in it *except* for Burry.
You hold, everything is fine. You lost your key, BTW. Have a nice day.
2 BTC would be nice. Retirement savings, pension, and SS are all variables. BTW, I'm retired. I won't divulge how many BTC and how many shares of Bitcoin proxies I have, but I'm in a good place right now. So, I'll say 2 BTC. GL
A thoughtful and useful post. Unfortunately this sub is about noobs pumping the latest memecoin, FOMO, and hype to the moon. I'm surprised it got to 12 upvotes. (I gave you one.) Sorry. That sucks. I feel your pain. BTW my constructive criticism, #1 and #5 are two sides of the same coin. When I offer advice, I lump those two together under FOMO. Fear of missing to the moon in time, fear of ditching the crash in time. But a good starting place for newcomers.
BTW was pre-mined. Satoshi mined over 1 million BTC right? Do the math. He was the only one mining for months.
A financial advisor would ask you a series of questions to determine your risk tolerance and recommend a portfolio based on your answer to those questions. For a low risk tolerance, a portfolio made up of 40% stock, 40% bonds, 15% cash and 5% Bitcoin may be right A high risk tolerance could be, 75% stocks, 15% cash and 10% Bitcoin... An ultra high risk tolerance could be something like 70% stocks, 10% cash and 20% Bitcoin. (BTW I'm just making up these numbers to give you some ideas. I'm not a financial advisor).
Dude bullshit. you are talking about a astroid impact. The modern world has had many economic collapses and guns and bullets are not the only thing that matters... BTW - suppose you need a gun and bullets in that world? You think you are buying it with dollars or Bitcoin? Also... just go buy a gun and learn to shoot it. It's fun! lol
As for creating elements - we can't. But we can convert other elements to gold. Stripping a proton from atoms of mercury would do it. BTW free or near free abundant energy will have an effect on dynamics of bitcoin mining as well. If it someday costs $8 an hour to run a few exahashes to mine then it would also cost $8 to run those same few exahashes in a 51% attack scenario. Still need to build and house all the hardware first though.
BTW: now they call it "Gender Affirming Care". lol
I don’t. I’m pretty good about manually moving at my set .05 threshold. I’m a degenerate but do pay myself first. I use strike BTW. So simple.
My binance account also stopped working from UK, luckily i have no funds on exchange. I guess withdraw GBP back to yor bank is an option. BTW ignore if any DMs in your inbox here as they all will be scams.
1. The “high yield” funds aren’t buying only (or even mostly) treasuries, the buy a lot of A2/P2 CP, sometimes (depending on the account) short term junk bonds, and frequently notes with derivatives attached that are selling volatility when the fund managers don’t realize it 2. BTW, the long bond has rate sensitivity of about 1% of price for every 8 one hundredths of a percent in yield, and your deposits are not term matched to the investments. 3. There is a difference between idiosyncratic risk and systemic risk, but both are risk. 4. Ever thought about from where the value of newly printed money comes? But since you’re so familiar with bond market risk, maybe you should open a hedge fund that raises money to deposit in the risk free accounts and then levers those based on returns (which should be easy because they’re risk free right?) to earn your fees. Heck everyone would be doing that… …unless the professional know that it’s a stupid trade because those funds aren’t really risk free. **There is no free lunch on Wall Street. If you think you’re getting one it’s because you don’t understand the risks.**
If you think of it only as a cash substitute I highly recommend doing some learning on your own. There are already many interesting solutions that are pretty much ready to be adopted that are not related to payment services. Identity verification, socialized mapping services, document verification, ownership verification just to name a few. Do yourself a favor and stop thinking of crypto based projects as "coins" because that term is misleading at best. But online payment processing is of course one important function but nowhere near the only one. BTW. I'd like to see you paying with cash online and even at some physical locations that no longer accept cash. Also btw I like cash too but my world is not black and white, there can be various ways of doing things.
Mine is the Miami Mural, but I also love Kendu Energy, tbh all of the IRL events are top notch, but yeah I love it. What about you BTW I stole the word initiative from you : )
Losing your biggest trade partner still isn't as big a loss as losing all of your trade partners. What you said doesn't really refute what I said in the first comment. The reserve currency situation is basically the nuclear option, and while many countries would be severely impacted should there be a mass exodus from the dollar, the US would still be the most impacted. It's also worth noting that some of these countries have resources that are far more important and isolated than coffee and bananas. I'm not against trying to reduce the trade deficit BTW, I think it's a great long term goal, I just think it's delusional to think the US has more negotiating power than almost literally the rest of the world combined, so it was dumb to ruin trade relationships with everyone at the same time.
The vast majority of the national debt is due to the Bush and Trump Era tax cuts combined with 2 illegal wars Bush started, not Biden trying to keep the economy afloat after covid. You talk about bad education while misunderstanding the history of our debt crisis, the irony. Trump, BTW, just added trillions more to that dent, he's been in office for only a few months. But go off on biden xp
How does any of that have to do with the IRS? Did the IRS publicly advocate for those “wasteful” programs and initiatives? Did the IRS reveal a firm political stance on those issues?Or did the IRS simply manage the accounting, tax collection, auditing processes, etc for those contracts / programs / initiatives? If the IRS refused to handle those accounts due to a perceived notion of “waste and fraud”, they would effectively be taking a political stance, no? The IRS has an obligation to service all accounts equally, regardless of the political ideology they personally hold or the intent/purpose behind the contract at hand. If “waste and fraud” is truly your concern, I can promise you there are *significantly* bigger fish to fry than a few million dollars worth of little initiatives that you are trying to mention here. But I doubt stopping *all* waste and fraud is your concern, I am willing to bet stopping *specific instances* that you disagree with is what matters moreso to you. BTW, all that “waste” you mentioned amounts to less than Trump’s golf expenditures. Sounds like you failed mathematics, too.
It actually would hit my sell order amount and stay there for about a minute, then drop a penny less for a few seconds before hitting my number again and going back up. Robinhood support said this means there aren't enough xrp being sold at the time to fill my order, which sounded like BS to me. BTW do other exchanges charge a sale spread to buy xrp? For instance does $480 sound like a lot to be charged for a sale spread when buying $70k of xrp at once with a market order? But with limit order I'm not charged a penny.
All hail Boxy, our new Ai Investment Guru. OP... that's his new name BTW.
You just assume that because I don't agree I don't know what I'm talking about. Thanks for gaslighting, is that the only way you csn justify? It's not slave labor BTW, it's better pay than many jobs in China You know.. The reason why companies like Apple went there in the first place? And that's correct.. Their labor is more skilled and cheaper than what you can get in America. You realize what you're saying is a double hit. It is both more expensive to automate, and you will automate so you dotn create many of those jobs for Americans either. Lol so what are you really trying to defend. Americans need to manufacture tools, toys, spoons, random crap and phones for their national security?
Bitcoin power law isn't "a paid system". Here are a few links so that you can stop paying for free information: https://bitcoinfairprice.com/ https://charts.bitbo.io/long-term-power-law/ BTW, the power law hypothesis only got widespread about a year ago, and hasn't predicted anything significant so far. It's a great example of curve overfitting and p-hacking, where someone fits a curve to data, without any evidence that it actually can predict new incoming data.
lol, I've lived off bitcoin since 2011. I've sold a ton. I paid 27.5 btc for a hyundai in 2013.. many other things. no regret. still have some. just wish I would have been more careful spending. BTW, 4 grandkids.
Noticeably not a counter argument. BTW someone should have told you the TDS has been reclassified as Trump Delusion Syndrome; the affectation for which millions suffer the blind acceptance of whatever incredibly dumb thing that comes from his orange face. Sad!
"Maya is listed as #21 (wink-wink) on the NPS candidate list." This number was chosen bay Maya intentionally BTW
MSNBC is so transparent, it's shameless. She kept pushing him to say "The world economy will crash because of Trump!" and he wasn't gonna take the bait which is fine. It doesn't matter because Trump IS crashing the economy. I respect this guy, he created the best video to explain economics and I'm freaking dense. I get the feeling he's optimistic this can be turned around with solid management. We're freaking doomed. Here's that video, BTW. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHe0bXAIuk0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHe0bXAIuk0)
And Thank YOU for the Happy Birthday! I got diagnosed at 38, but I had the first major episodes at 22, and then I was symptom free for 16 years. The first years after diagnosis were one hell of a ride. BTW, life expectancy sinks mostly though natural causes, as a result of lower self-care, including getting regular checkup, not taking your meds, and getting sub-par treatment. That's why I never mention the diagnosis when I go to docs other than my P-doc. More here: [https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25909752/](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25909752/)
BTW are you at your original investment in dollar terms or bitcoin terms? Because there's a huge difference lol, being even in dollar terms would have you rekt in bitcoin terms
I don't see why it won't be repeated, it was nothing compared to the 2013 and 2017 bull runs. BTW the stimulus checks narrative isn't really true. Bitcoin is global, not just American. There has been some research showing the amount that came in from stimulus checks was far less than it was made out, it just became the narrative at the time. Meanwhile China and the rest of the world were buying pushing the price up.
Not looking to buy spot, or open a long/short the old fashioned way. I can't really see how a DEX would manage leveraged tokens without using an oracle to track the CEXs doing it. Nice shilling for your bag BTW.
Yeah, good, piss off. Nobody wants your whiny ass here. BTW, where's the source to your bs claim?
Fold doesn't just let math play out. They probably turn it on and let someone win and then turn it off Mathematically, if 2 or 3 people all won that would suck for Fold. Fold is an amzing company BTW. I've made 5M sats for free with them for just paying off credit cards that I already used to pay bills and get cash back on. So I get cash back AND THEN get Bitcoin back on top of that. DM me for a code for 10,000 free sats
Yep. They have different grades of fakes. Some are so good you can't tell the difference from the real thing. Truly they have copied everything from software to purses and shoes. Americans live in complete ignorance as to how they sold their soul to the world. BTW I'm American but married into a Fil/Chinese family. Been there and have seen it.
BTW will survive yeah.... It's the ME that i am mostly concerned about
People top themselves, and that is shit for everyone involved. All I am typing. And good point BTW- f$&k Tik Tok as well ✅
Ok imagine that your cold wallet is a super secure encrypted storage option for your private keys (because that's roughly what it is). The private keys are what's used to tell the blockchain that "those cryptos there on that address are mine and I can spend them". 1. Nothing much, they get from address A to address B. And no you don't lose your tokens, that's the whole point of having them in your own wallet. 2. Not in the way you think it is. Often time, CEX will have you tick a "this wallet address is mine" box so it means that the address \*could\* be associated with you (since you have a KYC on the exchange). And nobody will have access to your coins unless they have your private keys. BTW, you seem newer to the whole crypto thing, I suggest you get yourself a Tangem wallet, it's by far the easiest wallet to use especially if you don't know much. It's still offers great security since it's never been hacked too, which is nice lol
search on youtube ICT trading. The biggest trader. BTW I do not recomend trading, I recomend investing
\> in 10-15 years 100-200% profit is enough for me You can make 400% in 10 years with stocks like sp500, without the extra risk. BTW, you won't even 100% with BTC. You can set a reminder and come back in 5 years.
Not in the ways you do most earned that through hard work and sacrifice Bezos is a prime example of this ,he is a Democrat BTW as well as 80 of the top 100 wealthiest in the US, went from a garage selling books to a multi billionaire. And i could mention many more, you want to be a billionaire? Its easy get an idea that people like spend every waking moment marketing and improving and in a short 10 years you could be in the top 1%. I don't care about the rich, they pay 90% of all tax collected, and most earned their fortunes. The ones I don't like are trust fund babies. And families like the Waltons one of the ever decreasing ultra rich Republican donors. You want change stop voting for the party that had the most rich people in it. DEMOCRATS
Try a grammar class if you're feeling that lost... LOST NOT LOSSED BTW theres no such word
You know MSTR buys all this BTC with high interest rate loans , right? Did you check short them abligations versus cash balance? Banks will soon knock his door. Basically all his “strategy” was based on BTC price increase more than 20% per year so MSTR will be profitable. BTW MSTR already is in negative for almost 3 billion dollars for their last 4 months of BTC investments.
You get my upvote for the jacket and tie alone. A better money also means the return of solidity in all aspects of life. Interesting video BTW.
You want to look into a P2P exchange like Bisq or Robosats. Neither requires a mobile app. BTW congrats on not wanting to go through a centralized exchange. That's the right way to do it.
Enterprise/governments will use blockchain tech - although it will need to be permissioned for privacy and security reasons - but they have virtually no need for the tokens. The only way tokens will be needed is if the project builds real utility in for them. DevvX, for example, will offer customisable shards (private blockchains) but they are gasless and have no need for the DevvE token. Their workaround is to use the token in specific usecases. e.g. their token will be the middle-man between every trade on their forthcoming exchange. If you trade BTC to ETH it will go BTC-DevvE-ETH. This liquidity solution allows the trading of thousands of assets without needing a pair for every possible combination. BTW it will be a combo crypto-RWA exchange so you could trade BTC for AAPL shares via DevvE. Value comes from staking the DevvE tokens for this liquidity and earning a share of the trade fees. Their blockchain as a service solution (imagine similar to AWS) will be charged out in DevvE. Unlikely that will be a requirement for huge clients (they already have at least 3 governments on board) but for smaller users, that is the plan. They have other ideas to reward the token holders who helped finance the development, but, yeah, most value assigned to tokens is wishful thinking and pure speculation.
BTW have you ever read what’s in *your* tap water? So many parts per billion cyanide, arsenic, and a multitude of other things you probably wouldn’t want in your body. Check with your local water company’s website, they have to post the waters content post treatment.
This Is The First Time I've Seen It To This Extent. It Reminds Me Of When People Do This. It's An Odd Personality Quirk. Another One Is When People Use Multiple Exclamation Points At The End Of Every Sentence. BTW I'm A Gen X And I Use Ellipses When What Would Follow Is Already Implied. This Doesn't Appear To Be The Case Here.
how is it not priced in when the market is already expecting sweeping tariffs? yes let's revisit this in a week. BTW even a dip to the 70s isnt something to worry about and it doesnt mean ppl buying now are exit liquidity like you said... my plan is to keep buying btc and I've been doing this since 2017 and I'm up massively and I'm sure BTC is going to over $1mn within the next few years so i see no reason to panic sell.
Correct. BTW: I just learned how insanely expensive it is to move your funds out of Binance: https://www.binance.com/en/fee/cryptoFee
It changes time to time. Usually the premium is 3-5% and sometimes it even goes into negative(meaning korea is cheaper than rest of the world). Some people hold stable coins just to arbitrage with this. BTW, 3-5% premium is much nicer than 20%+ taxes haha
On the day I can pay my house off with btc profits, it will be very hard not to do so. BTW, it would take btc to be worth $250,000 for that to happen
BTW, long time but Blockchain fixed the issue and I got my money back with profit (luck). Thanks.
Greece kinda scammed the EU there were subventions for olive fields that were larger than greece... BTW when is greece starting to pay back their debt?
*you're BTW it's my status on WhatsApp and I don't think it's yours.
u/okprofessional6294 I actually recently sold BONK and went all in on BUTTHOLE. BTW nice cock in your r/ratemycock post
BTW, I’m not disagreeing with you and have, in my opinion and analysis, an expected Bitcoin price of $125K - $150K somewhere around the end of April/early May. I also think that we’ll see Bitcoin top $250K - $400K by the end of this year/early next year. Global politics/policies and other factors can also skew these numbers. Especially the April 2nd reciprocal tariff enactment and market uncertainty/fears.
That gal BTW was ministry of defense, ministry of family after that or before idk and I believe of education too for a while. Rrrrrright.... Politicians man.... What an ugly bunch of devils in the dark.
I tend to believe that the price is driven by demand and supply. Which is driven by news, fud, fomo and so on. Not by previous price action. BTW, if you are a believer of the cycles, then this cycle is already broken as it never had a new ATH this early. This entire cycle is front running previous cycles. I am not saying I think it is over. I don’t think so. But I am also not saying that it could not be possible.
Arthur turned out to be correct a few time BTW
BTW seeing your comment history shows some anger. You lose money or always hated crypto? Whatever you lost, I lost a lot lot more.
When did we have a 2008 event after 2008? In 2023 SBV failed and BTC went up when stocks went down. BTW do you hold any crypto? If not, why are you here?
BTW still holding eth, been stacking since $3000 and staking everything.
you saying the republicans care about dems so much? come on. im so fucking tired how partisan everything in usa is. crypto bought this election, im betting their happy. BTW, as a republican, do you really think trump has the smallest intention on doing anything to the deficit? That 4 trillion tax cut isnt coming out of nowhere. It ofc comes from the pockets of the poorest and low-mid. Trump destroyed US Soft Power by destroying USAID. Aside from Aid given, it was a main an important body for soft power. Now that vacuum goes to china. Same in europe. Trump destroys european alliances and goodwill, that vacuum will be filled with china and russian gas. Soft power from US makes other countries want to be your friend, or at least friendly, because it's not so extortion-like. Transactionalism under trump is a different thing. I live in FI and been fighting Russian criminals my whole fucking life. One female friend got almost raped, I stopped it, she got raped and stabbed to death later and I got every bone except my left arm broken and 15k in instruments stolen. Back to russia and back with new passports, it's all kremlin arranged. And my most fucking insane complaint. MAGA for fucking russian talking points. Man I get dems went too far with no evidence of ru ru ru but this is serious now and Vance that fucking weirdo has been feeding total tucker / kremlin talking points to trump. That thing in the Oval was a fucking disgrace. "HAVE YOU EVEN SAID THANK YOU?" What, apart from every time he communicates and puts documents out, like a 1000x times and more? They just wanted him to grovel beneath them, itäs fucking sickening, like middle school bullies, Vance especially. Jesus I just know Vance was bullied at school and went to bed crying evey night. Now he does it to everyone else. And it doesn't take a genious to understand russia is the aggressor here. Apparently it takes a complete fucking moron to think it's the other way around. I hope Trump term is over quick, otherwise Im probably forced to a fucking frontline somewhere trump doesn't bother to know the name of or help in any way.
BTW. I agree that legally contractually allocated spending should continue and then NOT be renewed. It's just going a little fast than that, but thants fine too.
You really think Bitcoin is going to fully crash? I'm not opposing or downvoting you, BTW. I'm fairly new to Bitcoin and open to hearing different takes.
save yourself some time and forget about TA for a moment. Currently it's trading around macro. Has long has macro is grim, there is mostly downside. If SPY rebound, then BTW will too. And for that to happen we need a chain of good news about the economy as a whole
Not sure how to play things out because anything could happen. Could be some surprise announcement that makes things bounce 20%-50%, or we could see a continued downtrend. I have some long positions that are getting slaughtered, but I'm also sitting on the sidelines with a little bit of cash. There's a lot going on globally right now. As I said before, those in the US who were single issue voters and ignored a helluva lot of red flags are learning a tough lesson and we're all along for the ride. IMO, long term catalysts will be: 1. Clearer US regulations from both Congress and the SEC and/or CFTC so that retail and investors will feel more comfortable in the sector. Meme rug pulls aren't helping to shake off the scam criticisms of the sector BTW. Crypto enthusiasts loved them because they were "fun" and making people money overnight, but from the outside it wasn't a good look. No, the US President launching his own meme before the inauguration didn't help either. 2. Better global economic stability. US is likely headed towards a recession or even a depression depending on how things are handled. That will also drag down the global economy. Investors are pulling money from high risk investments like crypto, and sitting on the sidelines flush with case to buy stuff across the board at a huge discount, or moving them into something safer.
I won't get wrecked because I'm probably not going to buy it, LOL. I'm currently part of the $Pi cult, mined for several years, quit mining for a year, recently started again, kyc'd, and migrated a 1000 pi to my wallet. Locked it up for 3 years to increase my mining rate. Got to love free money! BTW, $pi is a project that originated from Stanford computer science department.
You're a true worshipper of trump, and that's okay. You called me an idiot first, and now you're making it seem as if I initiated the name-calling. That is a trump tactic. BTW, I don't watch TV; it programs people to become what you are, a sycophant. Have a great life 😁.
You are just shilling chain link. No one cares other than me taking few seconds to reply to you. BTW I won chain link but I won't shill it like you. Kinda pathetic my dude.
I think you are mixing concepts web3 web2 IT Azure.... That obviously you don't understand. BTW how much decentralization is enough? The truth is that Solana is decentralized enough to not be a problem. Decentralization means nothing without availability so mentioning Enterprise grade hosting services, as a bad thing only shows the ignorance. Also considering that any developed country can have more than 100 different hosting services and that you can host it at home if you have lab, makes even more clear that this is not an issue at all
Lets play. I'm willing to put up 10 BTC for 500K as long as you are not willing to liquidate me if it crashes to 20K (200K USD value). that would be YOUR balance sheet holding -300K on hopes of regular monthly payments. BTW This is Bitcoin. Suppose I leave the country with my keys... Will you take that offer? If so I have some BTC to deposit with you post legal agreements of course
It's going to take time.. it will all happen this month... we have 3 weeks this month. BTW I agree. it will all happen in time for sure. :)
Well NAFTA isn't fair and our borders are not secure. People act like it's not a felony to enter the usa illegally. BTW none of this has anything to do with bitcoin.
No bro I'm not going to buy a house and not even thinking about. BTW this was the FIRST RESULT ON THE INTERNET: " Supply of homes for sale: More demand than inventory An even-keeled real estate market has about six months’ worth of available inventory. Unsold inventory was a little more than half that amount at 3.5 months in January 2025, according to the National Association of Realtors (NAR). The number of homes listed for sale has slowly crept up since last year, but it’s still not a buyer’s market. "More housing supply allows strongly qualified buyers to enter the market," NAR chief economist Lawrence Yun said in a news release. "But for many consumers, both increased inventory and lower mortgage rates are necessary for them to purchase a different home or become first-time homeowners." As of the end of January, there were 1.18 million "
First of all, I wasn’t the first one to call out names - you were. You called me “expert in pulled-out-of-this-air economics”, then added that I’m “clearly in over your head in this conversation” - to a person whose actual job has been to advise international companies on supply chain management BTW - and followed that up with “let the grown-ups talk”. If you can’t take on shit talking, don’t start it. The funniest part is that this pathetic human being actually went as far as to block me right after responding so that I couldn’t answer back - and by judging what other people wrote in other topics, he has been doing it regularly. How insecure are you to run away any from any discussion? Reddit is a pretty simple place to reg another account and to put pathetic losers like you in their rightful place, I can reg all day. Now, let’s look at your points: 1. USMCA was a reskinned NAFTA for material products, any trade professional would tell you that. It was an improvement for intellectual property though, but that’s not where Canada places any restrictions, is it? But anyways, why would your holy emperor Trump sign USMCA and call it a great achievement if it “benefitted disproportionally” Canada and Mexico? Is he dumb? 2. 4-5% increase in costs in an industry that averages 9% margin? And in an industry that is already facing a headwinds of migrant shortage? Yeah, you have completely no understanding of how agriculture economy works lol. Once farmers start getting bankrupted and prices spiral up beyond any control (since, you know, it’s not a car that one can postpone to purchase - it is food, so while supply decreases, demand will stay the same and it is a recipe for food price inflation), you will find another reason why that happens. I guess fentanyl addiction is a good one lol 3. You CAN’T onshore everything, that is impossible. There are plenty of resources and materials that USA simply don’t have and must import. That without taking into account that production costs in USA are higher than pretty much anywhere outside of Europe: TSMC has already gone on record saying costs to produce chips in Arizona is almost 2x higher than in Taiwan, which is not a low-cost location to begin with. Yes, they produce them in USA because they were given tax breaks, not because that made economic sense in a vacuum. Get ready for a lot of other industrial producers hiking up prices for everything now too. 4. Those protectionist practices are per USMCA that Trump himself signed, Canada is not breaking any treaties here. Shame on you for supporting bullying of a country that literally didn’t do anything to breach the agreement. 5. Trade imbalances can’t be corrected by tariffs without a huge drop in quality of living: this is not 19th century when international trade was barely feasible outside of countries that literally shared border with each other, so most goods were produced in the country anyway. Logistics are too efficient now, which means certain countries specialize in things they are either good at (Taiwan at chip manufacturing), have resource base (Canada with potash, oil, metals, etc) or have perfect climate (Cote d’Ivoire grows cocoa beans and Ukraine used to be leader in wheat production). You can’t replace Taiwanese know-how in 2-3 years, there is no way to replace Canada’s resource base without actually conquering it and you can’t grow things for cheap that other countries with perfect climates do. You know what would have solved this issue though? Support for automatization and robotization of production in USA, because that increases productivity and makes US competitive internationally while not increasing burden on average Joes. 6. If you understood economics, you wouldn’t be talking all this nonsense. They also use data to support their arguments in debates and I have seen exactly 0 data-based arguments from you - which is not surprising for a Trump supporter who is used to just throwing around buzz words with no substance. But what you do have is a huge yet fragile ego since you blocked me, I’ll give you that. P.S. I’m not hating America, I’m hating an asinine man who is steering America - and whole world as a whole - to a new Great Depression while simultaneously undermining every aspect of American democracy. The country used to be beacon of light and is now approaching Russia’s levels of bullying around.

So your response to me calling out yet more of your bullshit is to cry for 7 days and then ignore all of the points either of us made previously and start again with another lie? > eth is at 1900 now Do you not know that we can very easily check prices of assets? ETH hasn't been at 1,900 since August 2023. > I am just going to let you fuck up all your finances, I bought BTC in 2015 and the majority of my ETH in Q1 of 2016... so you really don't need to worry about my finances. BTW, I'm still looking forward to hearing how you think those 51% attacks work... ... or for you to link to anywhere that I've deleted comments? Or I guess you could just admit that you lie compulsively about anything you think you can get away with?
Sure everbody here is scared of the burger king. BTW i was so scared I dropped 3 eggs. We also have bird flu here and still somehow 3 eggs are still less than 1 Euro here. Also i dont know why but for some reason my Euro etf is by far outperforming my s&p 500 since the Donald took over but sure. MAGA and everything
Nexo bank offers a visa (or mastercard, dont remember) payment card. They are in Malta, ok for Europe. KYC not too heavy. BTW never tested this card.
