This can't possibly be right because every time anyone suggests Bitcoin's past performance can't predict the future the trolls come out shouting YOU JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND THE CYCLE to tell us how dumb we all are for not believing the price of Bitcoin follows clockwork predictably.

PatternAgainstUsers

That's my point, if they DON'T think it's over... then it probably is. That's why buying fear and selling greed work as general rules... I called a BTC low approximately 35 minutes after the February low simply due to capitulatory volume, an extreme volatility reading (largest in the cycle) and a historical fear print. I was ultimately wrong about that being the low... but that low held for like 3 months, do you understand how tradeable that is?

Hour_Flounder1405

yeah so I just don't understand the obvious mistakes made. think about it. if you were being paid lets say 5K a week, but then your boss told you that he could no longer pay wages to you, but asked you to stay and work anyway...would you? now lets go a step futher. lets say same thing but your boss is telling you that in order to "keep your job" you MUST PAY 1 grand a month...maybe 2, maybe even 5 grand a month...just to "keep your job!" would you? no, of course not. Because that would be insane, and stupid. No one would do that. Because it is real money. Your money. yet, for reasons that I can't seem to understand people treat investing the same way. the hold on to losses and it gets worse and worse and worse. I guess it's not the same kind of money for some people...but it really is. It is very real money. the point is that very few people actually treat investing as a profession...nor do they give it serious decision making action. a investment plan MUST HAVE AT LEAST 4 elements. And these must be decided before you make your first investment. 1. what is the price you are willing to enter... 2. How much of your investment portfolio will you commit 3. What it your profit point...an actual take profit point 4. What is the amount of losses you are willing to take before you cut your losses. from my perspective, most people never give any of these things any serious consideration. THEY JUST DON"T HAVE A PLAN. anyone who is 50 percent under water from any investment is a complete fool. Or said better, just a ordinary gambler who depend on luck for a good outcome. spoiler: the market does not reward gamblers, nor does it reward luck. get a plan...make a plan. make it sensible. Then enforce your plan. it's real money. you earned it. protect it. God Bless America

My suggestion is DON’T get married, that’s a great way to lose your money

Lmao. Look at this account. Three months old with 3.8k contributions. This Liberal bot is ACTUALLY a bot!!! DON'T BUY BTC FOLKS.

DON’T think that having a cold card will keep your coins safe

omni_wisdumb

Dude can you not read. I am saying I am out of the loop. I DON'T KNOW IF THE HACKERS SENT THE FUNDS TO A THIRD PARTY. You're one of those clowns that just wants to argue to feel smart 🤣. Maybe instead of just restating the obvious, again, that no one is even countering, you actually answer the question being asked.

SkidMarkShark

He did everything wrong. The coldcard is a seed signer. DON'T let these devices generate you seed and use a Passphrase.

Cryptocurrency will never be adopted in the way that people theorized it would. It has nothing to do with self custody or any of the above. > Obviously, most people here believe in cryptocurrencies. Actually, most people here are trolls or people coming to talk shit about cryptocurrency, there are very few people here who actually use it, let alone understand it. Most people have abandoned Reddit entirely due to their terrible handling of their own cryptocurrency, so you're left with mostly the dregs of society here. The reasons that crypto will never reach mass adoption in terms of paying for a cup of coffee with it are many. - The average person is dumb as a doorknob, and getting dumber by the day. Their face is melting from social media use, gacha games are ruining their critical thinking skills, and their dopamine receptors are eviscerated from all the lootbox gambling style mechanics that exist. - Most people in North American DON'T NEED DECENTRALIZED MONEY. This is because they have a perfectly fine working currency, most of them don't have any sort of money in the first place, and there isn't a reason for them to own their money. Banks work just fine for the average dumb as a doorknob member of society, most of which are clicking on phishing links and talking to the Nigerian prince daily. - There's no reason to record literally everything on a blockchain anyways, especially on Bitcoin. It's used for specific purposes and things that need it but no one cares if I spent $3 on a cup of coffee, and it certainly doesn't need to be forever recorded on a public ledger. So, anyone entering this space has to actually pay attention. No, just grabbing a random wallet and stuffing your coins on it isn't enough. No, just having cold storage isn't enough. You actually have to know what the fuck you're doing, and that takes time and effort. If you're just some speculator and you're a lazy fuck, you're going to lose all your money. You shouldn't buy crypto. Bitcoin has never stopped being decentralized currency. You just probably don't need it. Bob from accounting probably doesn't need it either, and neither does Mary, your elderly neighbour who keeps getting calls from the nice duct cleaners. You live in a relatively wealthy country with a relatively stable currency, are an ordinary person, and other than speculative investment you probably don't even care about Crypto - So there's literally no reason for you to have it. It's a space you have to *want* to be in and interact in. If you don't want to do that, you should absolutely not be in it, for your own sake.

Pepsiholic251

Nope. I'm not dumb enough to have all my crypto in one spot. But you do you little buddy. I have 4 different cold wallets (not the same brand either), 2 different hot wallets that are stored in a Faraday box and not connected to anything, I have some locked away in staking and some in a liquidity pool managed by AI. Altogether its over 10 different locations so I cant lose all of it in 1 swoop. There are people in this world that are the reason warning labels are put on things. If you have all your crypto in 1 or 2 locations, thats on you. Does it suck? Yes. If Trezor goes down or gets hacked, I lose less than 1/10th of my crypto. I live by the motto DTA! DON'T TRUST ANYBODY! My wife only knows about 3 wallets and 1 liquidity pool. I use multi sig wallets. I have already been in a position where I lost a wallet early on and lost about $2k then. You know what I did? I came up with a plan so that would never happen again. Know what I didn't do? What you did.

Specialist_Trust4945

Until a few days ago everybody thought Coldcard was as safe as any other hardware wallet as well, but now in hindsight they looks silly. Maybe they are 100% safe, maybe they aren't. We will never know, until an attack occurs. **DON'T TRUST!** Create your seed phrase instead of letting your hardware pick it.

Specialist_Trust4945

The writing is on the wall: **DON'T TRUST, VERIFY**. Now, read again the first two words.

The most effective thing you can do is not touch any of that shit with a ten-foot pole, especially USD1 as I’d assume only morons would buy into TRUMP and MELANIA. But by any means: DON’T TRADE USD1 pairs!

No 1 knows 💩 F TEMU 🔮 DON'T WORK Will alt 💩coins climb when BTC finally does? Historical YES, but is it guaranteed. NO Again no one knows anything. Alts will be dead if this 💩 doesn't turn around in the near future. Only time will tell.

>Just wanted to share with you all. DON'T USE BINANCE This is not the lesson, the lesson is that you should take ownership of your coins asap and dont let some company hold them for long time.

Bitcoin was captured and suppressed by IBIT (Blackrock). Larry Fink is to money what Bill Gates is to health. People don’t hate him enough. ETFs are scam, IBIT was designed to capture Bitcoin and keep the price under control.  Low iq people are happy making a 25% profit in fake money. Sadly, most of the crypto community is incapable of recognizing the intentional damage the WEF cochair, communist, dual citizen and financial criminal Larry Fink is doing to the crypto community. PEOPLE DON’T HATE HIM ENOUGH. IF YOU’RE A BITCOINER: LARRY IS STEALING YOU.

never_safe_for_life

Bitcoin is a hedge against monetary debasement and that's all but guaranteed. I expect it to continue outperforming everything like it has since inception, even though the rate of growth continues to slow. That said, if you don't understand it then....DON'T INVEST! How on earth do you plan to stomach the volatility if you don't know what it is or why it has value? So invest in education. Start with The Bitcoin Standard and go from there.

CloudLeading1502

There are dozens of similar projects that were well-intentioned and resulted in loss of funds and I'm concerned that you used an LLM to reply to my initial comment, which to me signals that you aren't interested in a serious discussion. I would urge anyone coming across such projects to instead look at established, widely-used, reproducible tools such as a hardware wallet, Ian Coleman's BIP39 tool (offline), or SeedTool to name a few. "I reviewed it and it looks correct" is not a strong enough standard, and the bar for trusting any single unaudited generator with your savings is "DON'T"!

Lorian0x7

you are right but that's also dystopian af! every data sent out to be verified by a third party. it's like age verification on steroids fueling censorship more than they actually already doing. This could be applied to news and Freedom of speech. They already tried banning lots of ideas as misinformation because unaligned with governments goals... DON'T GIVE THEM IDEAS!

Post is by: vac2672 and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1twn12g/attention_young_grasshoppers/ I really feel for all these obviously young wannabe superstar traders losing their shirts in these markets. Real facts here... you ain't gonna make a living day trading, esp. crypto (unless you happen to have been very lucky and bought years ago, but chances are you sold it.) I have been buying BTC since it was $300, unfortunately selling along the way as well. Anyway take this advice young bucks, because it is pure gold...if you have the discipline you will thank me in years to come, if you don't, and you continue to pretend using terms like 'support', 'breakout', 'test' when it comes to btc you will pay dearly... btc is worthless, just face it, you are here to trade and make money, not because you're waiting for the financial system to collapse... it ain't gonna so get on w your life. I have done technical analysis professionally on wall street for years using custom software built for portfolio analysis, so take my advice or don't, i really don't care... Here is how you get rich: If you're in you late teens, 20's, even early 30's not too late... simply put 85% of what you can save each month in stocks (i'll explain how), and 15% (10% btc, 5% your fav worthless alt coin). This is IN ADDITION to maxxing out your 401k and/or ira's. That is priority #1 **Of your 85% Stocks breakdown as: 40% QQQ, 20% SPY, 40% Top Tech (Faang or Mag 7, etc)** Now you assign your dollar amount to that... whether it is $100 a month or $1k and do your portfolio purchases. Now here's the rule: DON'T EVER SELL ANYTHING. I didn't sell through the dot com bust, i didn't sell through '08, and now I am rich by most standards. The freedom you will gain is beautiful.. stop trying to time btc because it has no timing, it is a trading vehicle, that's it, treat it that way... it ain't your lifeblood.. I still to this day don't PERSONALLY know a single person who has used btc to purchase anything. You use it to make money, stop being a fanboy. You can believe me, don't believe me, downvote me, whatever.. i'm giving you free advice, i've done it all, i was the wannabe daytrader, i built automated blackbox trading models, etc.. i've watched top PhD's try to beat the market...it all fails. The only thing I have seen work is the above. Anything else is timing and a little luck. Oh, and you're welcome *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

How to verify a wallet: Step 1: Look at said wallet and go "Yep, there it is" Verification complete DON'T CLICK ON ANY LINKS!

Rules of life for Technology: 1.Watch what links you follow, if you follow a link, it should be something you prompted yourself from the legit site. 2. Be cautious of who calls you if it's unknown. If you have to Verify information, via call, Hang up if they called you. Be cautious when giving any info. 3. DON'T SIGN NON- KNOWN PACKAGES. If you're not expecting a huge package don't sign it. Dont sign for small items or small mall. 4.You can keep your sensitive info in a central location as long as it's not used publicly and socially(if you like comment or share,dont do it on that account you have on that platform. Nobody can hack an account that they don't know about unless they hack your device all together. Only works well on mobile devices, never do this on PC due to easier to get Viruses) 5. Never answer with your normal voice and response if you don't know who it is. Do an accent because people can steal and mimick your voice.

rollinronnie

Mine is pretty old but it's connected to a computer via USB and the seed phrase it provides is confidential. You can make up an extra "word" on the seed for additional security. When you send your btc to the cold wallet even if your accounts get compromised like the OP, as long as you DON'T STORE YOUR SEED ONLINE OR TAKE A PICTURE OF IT, the hackers will be unable to access the coins.

Technically its still a viable option but they had leaks of personnal data (your delivery adress is the last thing you want to leak when you are your own bank!) And they deployed some optional backup service that are seen by many as a an important source of distrust. The data leak for me is the reason i ll never buy anything from them anymore. But in any case this was a lesson for the whole community. WHATEVER THE BRAND YOU LL PICK : DON'T GET YOUR HARDWARE WALLET DELIVERED TO YOUR HOME ADRESS! (Also get your self a proper way to backup your seedphrase : not a simple piece of paper).

Atavacus

That's a big "if". If you bought it through an exchange like Bisq they DON'T know you have it. I haven't misunderstood at all. You've misunderstood the dynamics of policing. Because Monero is built with privacy in mind they're going to catch hell trying to figure out what was spent and what was not spent. Furthermore, even if you did by on a KYC exchange the first time your Monero moves to a new address they've lost it because they don't know if you made a purchase or shuffled. Every person they arrest turns into an ordeal. Eventually the law is on the books, sure, but the "scenario" becomes completely unenforceable. The people that buried their gold in a mason jar in the woods eventually got to keep it. I know, because I know folks that did exactly that. Non-compliance is the answer to your scenario really.

Dr-Fred-Markets

Bitcoin is an insurance policy. You don’t sell your insurance to pay rent. 2.5 BTC is not a retirement plan. It’s a hedge against the system failing you — inflation, currency debasement, bank bail-ins. The question isn’t “can I live on 2.5 BTC?” The question is “what happens to my purchasing power if I DON’T hold it?” Stack it. Protect it. Never sell to live. Let the fiat world pay your bills. Let Bitcoin protect your future.

MaximumStudent1839

If you check my history, you will know I am not a Trump supporter. That said, I just get kicks out of telling the uncomfortable truth about this market. Both Trump and his sons literally gave minimal public attention to his memecoin. After the launch, he barely even discuss it. His son, Eric, maybe tweet once or twice about it. They do tweet more about WLFI. But that thing is really just big whales like Justin Sun propping it up. The problem is, the industry was so desperate to whore itself out to the Trump family. All the usual suspects VCs and KOLs were hyping about Trump tokens - the Trump barely lifted any finger. In all honesty, you DON’T GET TO call RAPE if you voluntarily pulled you pants down and shoved it up to ride him.

> Safety: if you suggest a website or an app to generate a wallet and get the keys for and then print it out on piece of paper. DON'T EVER USE A WEBSITE TO GENERATE KEYS. Preferably, do it offline. A fully open source hardware wallet like SeedSigner, Jade or Krux are IMHO the safest bet. >How are you 100% sure the generator is not fake? Because it's open source and you don't use a shitcoin wallet like [Cake](https://milksad.info/posts/research-update-10/) for example. >Anonymity: getting the wallet undocumented and how to later on exchange it back to fiat without having to through places like Coinbase etc... First: Run your own node. Every wallet, not connected through your nede is capable of linking and logging your IP to an address. This includes wallets, storing "privacy" shitcoins. Second: Buy bitcoin P2P at BISQ, Robosats, HodlHodl, PeachBitcoin or Vexl. For the highest anonymity, go with Vexl and exchange cash, face to face. Otherwise, you're leaving trial at your bank. >Purchasing: Many business online now accept crypto/btc but its usually associated to an account/name. Always pay over r/thelightningnetwork. The receiver cannot link back to your wallet because the LN doesn't use a blockchain. [Here's a good video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKdK-7AtAMQ), explaining how LN works. The privacy part is towards the end. Also, visit r/BitcoinBeginners and look around. Your questions have been answered on many occasions.

I'm invested, so I explain why I'm in.  You havent provided one credible source that shows that XRPL is a top chain by traffic. Once the clarity act is passed, value is going to flow into what has already proven to work, not into a network whose activity lacks meaningful share in broader on-chain usage like DeFi or smart contracts. Your argument is all speculation, not evidence. >I don't invest in Doge and my time is more valuable than WASTING on a crypto I DON'T CARE TO INVEST IN.  I don't push it.  The doge community doesn't believe their token/chain is taking over global finance and going to be used by every bank. The XRP community are so delusional they think they can take over Swift lmao

Who are involved w the project. That's important for future success.  I've already said multiple times, the CURRENT VOLUME IS NOTHING. A lot of memecoins n dark money exchanging. It's not real mainstream business.  Ok, so it's used less than Cardano (again because they were in memecoin game early like Etherum n Sol) but why Cardano is struggling to get any attention?   And again, see above. I don't wanna repeat the same shit over n over. The traffic rn is meaningless.  Me, a shill? I don't get paid, but I'm here because I have money in XRP and do my research, market reading daily.

Your seed phrase is your master key to your wallet. Don’t share it with anyone or keep it on any digital device that has internet connectivity. Your *wallet address* is what you send bitcoin to and from. DON’T listen to anyone messaging you saying they will help, they will just try to convince you to give them your seed phrase.

SkewerSk8r

DON'T ANSWER PM's... those are scammers. DON'T GIVE AWAY YOUR SEED PHASE ~ you will loose your crypto.

Strong_Truck4551

whatever you do, don't listen to the experts. They've done it again. They recommended buying bitcoin at $125,000, but hate it at $64,000. (Same with gold, by the way, they hated it at 1k,love it at 5k). Don't listen to those bozos. In fact, do whatever they DON'T say.

TheresNoSecondBest

>The fear of making a single typo in a long address Nothing will happen. You DON'T TYPE the address, you copypasta it or scan a QR code. Even if you decided to type the address yourself, there's a checksum stopping you from sending the bitcoin to this magical nonexistent address. Even if you typed the address wrong and made multiple mistakes and ended up magically using an existing address, BEFORE you send "all your money", you will clearly send a test transaction.

The DON’T rely on devices! The only folks that do end up here explaining how they lost their stash and expecting the world to cry with them. Anybody with anything worth protecting etches it on metal, and stores it in really safe place. Like a bank vault. If my device breaks, I get a new one and go to the bank to load my seed and bring the device home. I never type it in, take a picture off it, or recite it aloud. At the bank, I actually work under a towel.

Yeah I do keep repeating, because you keep making no other new points to reply to. Here, let's keep it short and one at a time then move on if there's more left: > But assets keep growing Not if they aren't invested long term. Which is why your "disincentive" is absurd. Pick one: * DO invest long term, pay 10% tax on your unrealized gains the entire way, including compounding. Do it for 20 years and maybe end up with 700k in gains after taxes whereas you would have had 1,000,000 in gains aftet taxes prior to this change * DON'T invest long term, and get fuckin $0 in gains after tax cause you had no gains Which is better? $700k or $0? If you agree $700k is better, then you agree people are still rntirely incentivized to invest

Worse thing you could do now is sell. DON’T SELL. Short term noise. BTC is fine. It’s on sell, so buy more. When it goes lower, buy more. You will be proud of yourself in years to come.

Coreantes

I mean, this is a bit of FUD, in my view. They don't. Also, they law, which INCLUDES crypto, but actually exists to redesign the way they tax ALL assets you hold, is a complete package where this is a part of. Additionally, the reason they are going to sign is because the current system is flawed in many ways and not future proof in the slightest. Therefore, which is obviously never mentioned, all parties in the Netherlands ARE going to sign, but say the DON'T WANT TO, but have no choice. They accept this as an intermediate solution. Furthermore, this is future law and new laws are, from what I've read, already in the works. This law in it's current form is already, and will create more backlash that in the long term, this is absolutely going to change. Again, this post is not wrong, but it's looking at a small detail over something that's been in the works for a very long time and just includes crypto. It's not aimed AT crypto.

You say you feel “really comfortable” during bear periods but then you put in screaming all-caps “DON’T SELL”. Which is it?

RenrenAce

Unless someone is a time-traveler here from the future they DON’T know with 100% certainty what is going to happen. Speculation is extremely dangerous, essentially gambling. If you’re not okay with losing 100% of the money then don’t risk it.

donjoe0

You sound like you're about as intelligent as a GPT. Currencies are not speculative assets precisely because THEY DON'T HAVE THE HIGH VOLATILITY that makes outsized profits possible in true speculative assets. You really just can't stop talking complete nonsense, I have to block you at this point to stop these notifications.

Friendly reminder, if you DON'T believe bitcoin forever ATH is 126k, you are looking at about 65-70% increase on your investments right now even if it only hits the prior ATH. let's say that even takes a few years to occur, you're still going to make much more than sp500.... Of course, have to have belief in BTC and that we aren't cooked

I keep seeing people screaming “DON’T USE LEVERAGE” like it’s 2008 forever. But hear me out: what about tasteful leverage via Robinhood margin on a buy-the-dip, 3-year time horizon? Margin’s only 5%. I’m not YOLOing 0DTEs or maxing out margin on SPY calls — this is slow-cook degeneracy. Buy fear, add on deeper dips, let time do the heavy lifting. Is this still considered financial suicide or just weaponized patience? Asking for a friend. 🦍💎🙌

Holiday_Piano4588

THE TETHER TRAP: TRUMP’S DIGITAL PRISON FOR YOUR GOLD The plan is clear: THE GOVERNMENT WANTS THE GOLD, BUT THEY DON'T WANT YOU TO HOLD IT PHYSICALLY. Through the GENIUS ACT, the Trump administration is using Tether and tokens like aUSDT or SOVGLD as "digital warehouses." THE TRAP: You buy the token thinking you "own gold," but the physical bullion sits in a vault under the jurisdiction of the U.S. or its allies. As the saying goes: "GOLD YOU OWN, BUT THEY CONTROL." By pushing this into 401(k) plans, they are turning the retirement savings of millions into a digital hostage. THE PUPPET MASTERS: Tether is now the largest buyer of U.S. Treasury debt in the crypto world. Tether is, in practice, AN ANNEX OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE. This is why the Trump/Bessent administration won’t destroy them; THEY WILL ABSORB THEM. They simply HIJACK TETHER. The government ensures Tether keeps operating, and Tether delivers the control. THE PANIC BUTTON: Tether has officially confirmed its collaboration with the FBI and the SECRET SERVICE. They have already frozen billions of dollars in private wallets under government orders. YOU THINK YOU FLED THE DOLLAR AND BOUGHT GOLD, BUT YOU ARE IN A DIGITAL NETWORK CONTROLLED BY A PLASTIC SURGEON FROM MILAN WHO ANSWERS DIRECTLY TO TRUMP’S TREASURY. The connection is undeniable: Tether’s reserves are managed by CANTOR FITZGERALD, whose CEO, HOWARD LUTNICK,   Trump's Secretary of Commerce. They are using FRONTMAN and offshore tax havens to build the ultimate weapon of financial surveillance. In the old system, a bank could fail, but physical cash still circulated. In the Tether/Bessent Gold Tokenization system, if you are labeled a "financial terrorist," YOUR DIGITAL GOLD IS ERASED WITH A SINGLE CLICK. There is no black market that can save you when the infrastructure is 100% digital and centralized in the hands of these billionaire "doctors" and their government handlers. PREPARE FOR THE GREAT DECEPTION: YOUR "STRATEGIC RESERVE" IS YOUR DIGITAL GAG.

Electrical_Yam_2243

It's because the world wants a real currency.  Tether is the transparent one. Your government is not. Only the biggest dumbass im the world would back any stable coin one to one with a failing and obsolete economy, fed, and US Dollar in the DIGITAL AGE. You are all mostly still bots, or incredibly uneducated. This is the world leaving the US dollar behind.  No intelligent GENIUS would back ANY stable coin with the Bolivar.. OR the US Dollar.  I told yall this when your US government was here attacking tether with bots and also attacking tether alongside the other dumbasses that push USDC. I'll take tether because it is ram by people smart enough to see the brilliance.. While the US government amd USDC creators were originally oblivious and didn't get it. That's because they are morons.. But now they wamt you to think they are smart for playing catch up. Nope. You're still a loser trying to force tether to die with the US Dollar.  The world moves forward and tether, or our new and much deserved forms of exchange will have to be backed by something greater than an obsolete currency stuck in the INDUSTRIAL AGE.  YALL STILL DON'T GET IT OR FUTURE

That's precisely where all of the moon boy's money has been going... The bears have been the more conservative and skilled participants and have won this round... And a lot of them DON'T come back...

TheAudacityofHopium

Unfortunately, Bitcoin only makes its moves, on average, 10 days out of 365 every year. So the correction to the upside is easy to miss if you aren't a HODLer. Folks...don't be silly. Buy the Bitcoin, put it in cold storage and DON'T SELL. If all 8 million of us in this group bought 0.01BTC, we would all benefit from network effects and price accumulation like nobody's ever seen before. Just HODL, seriousyl.

Saylor_Moonboi

Everyone else is wimping out, so I'll take this one. The realistic long term risk is that Bitcoin isn't used for anything in the real world, besides hoarding by our cult, and this is NOT a small risk. Not used as sound money, or even 'gold 2.0', and frankly, the way the banks are currently FOMO-ing into gold 1.0, as Trump keeps tearing down the old world order, its pretty clear that gold has NOT lost its monetary use, to become just another industrial metal, quite yet. I personally think the current Republican embrace of Bitcoin is purely linked to their positive, but twisted, views on bitcoin mining, and not any real desire for a return to hard money, or backing the US dollar with anything, and their HODL will be a LOT shorter than most people here think. I think the way they look at Bitcoin, and mining it, is as sort of a 'Fracking 2.0', like its some kind of digital resource extraction, that the US has some kind of inherent advantage in doing, that we don't have for, say, gold mining, and that Bitcoin mining does acceptable levels of environmental damage, not so much that catastrophic climate damage happens, but enough perceived damage that it pisses off the libs. You can sort of see thi,s in that they describe their HODLing as a 'strategic reserve', which they DON'T describe their gold holdings as, which I think makes it very equivalent in their mind to the strategic reserve of OIL the US already holds. I have a feeling that Trump, or his successor, will 'Elon Doge' the Bitcoin community, by dumping most, or all (!!) of the reserve, to buy dollars off the international markets, if the dollar falters near an election, or inflation surges again, as it likely will, just like they pull market shenanigans with the strategic oil reserve. This lack of government HODLing, or any real money usage, could cause the price of bitcoin in fiat to stabilize, or even gradually fall over the longer term, like what is now happening to almost every altcoin. This doesn't require an end to money printing, only the Fed getting inflation back to 2 %, which I actually think is doable, and they had BETTER do it, or Schiff will be proven right, gold will keep surging, and the country will suffer a lot, and maybe the sheeple will take out their frustration on the Bitcoin community. The positive case is that Bitcoin keeps appreciating faster than the dollar keeps dropping, because of further adoption. This could happen from hedge funds, ETF growth, more third world central banks getting into it, or even the normie sheeple finally FOMOing into it. I think this is reasonably likely, and has been happening for a while now, but it IS hard to predict where the next level of demand will come from, and its definitely not a certainty.

Alternative_Week3023

Let’s see if Bitcoin’s 4 yrs cycle is truly broken first in Q1/Q2 first… Bitcoin has its way of surprising everyone when you are least expecting.. don’t let it nip you in the rear end by taking out a loan regardless of your availability to service it… If you have the conviction, just DCA into it monthly and buy the dips when they come. DON’T take out a personal loan for it… just live frugally and DCA into it HARD….

But they DON'T change context here. The crypto community cried "DECENTRALIZATION = PERMISSIONLESS". Dictionary says "decentralization is equality of power among many" and "permissions are who can participate in power". Narayanan and Gencer both agreed with the DICTIONARY and said "wake up crypto community, permissionless doesn't mean decentralized!" I agree with the dictionary, Narayanan and Gencer. You're off in LaLa Land making this stuff up as you go and shifting your goalposts.

Quick way to process your decision aka weigh before you pay: 1. What's the best thing that can happen if I buy? 2. What's the worst thing that can happen if I buy? 3. What's the best thing that can happen if I DON"T buy? 4. What's the worst thing that can happen if I DON'T buy?

The point of prediction market is... it actively incentivizes people to be truthful. Its rigged with insiders, yes, but its beneficial for the wider culture as a whole. Now, there's a financial incentive to be truthful unlike social media. Only an idiot gambles in a market rife with insider information. You only put money when YOU believe something is truthful. If you think there's unfair rigged game going on behind the scenes, DON'T put your money on that! Its that simple. Now compare this with, say, reddit or X. These sites rewards circlejerk, hysteria, cult of personality, extremism, exaggeration, fake news etc every hour of the day. The algorithms in social media platforms are literally engineered to be addictive to the end user. It causes actual brain rot. Facebook has contributed to genocide of ethnic group Rohingya in Myanmar. Which poison is better here?

Good luck to you. But to be serious for a minute. DON'T plug them in. Maybe even put them in a bank safe deposit box. There are reputable data recovery services that can help you. Your job of course is to figure out which ones are reputable. Data recovery and safety is a huge business and you should be able to find someone to help. When you get your $50 mill in bitcoin don't forget your poor buds on Reddit.

I posted this in your other thread about this topic. I'll share it here as well. Like it or not, the best place to store a seed phrase backup is in a safe deposit box at the bank. I know, I know. We all hate banks. But facts are facts. Physical security is tight. Banks typically have high security vaults, alarms, time locks, and surveillance systems. Safe deposit boxes are inside bank vaults. A thief would need to breach more than just a box. They'd need to get into a heavily protected vault first. It's a two-key system. Access requires both the bank's guard key and the customer's personal key. A thief would need to know which box is yours. It's not like your name is on it. Also, if people know you own Bitcoin (maybe you've told family and friends?), having the backup of your wallet in your home means you can be robbed. That's not true if it's in a bank. I. Mother. Effing. Hate. Banks... so the fact that I recommend a safe deposit box speaks for itself. **If You Must Store It At Home:** If you're going to store your seed phrase at home, get a safe and some simple home automation (I don't mean as part of the safe). Even a cheap safe will do, because the home automation is the real prevention method. Put the safe somewhere it won't be seen. For home automation, pick up something like an Aqara hub and two sensors to attach to the safe. One sensor will alert you if the door opens. The other will alert you if the safe moves (meaning, if somebody tries to steal it, because really, that's what would happen. Nobody's going to try to break into a small safe. They'll just take it and run). A small safe will cost less than $50, and the home automation stuff will cost less than $75 total. Want to kick it up a notch? Get a camera and put it somewhere so you'll see anybody who tries to open or take the safe. You're still under $150 total. I know somebody will read this and think it's over the top, but let's get real here. For $150 total, if not less, you'll have a setup that will protect your seed phrase and give you an instant alert on all of your devices if somebody tries to get into your safe. The home automation stuff is handy for all kinds of other things too. I knew a guy who had a sensor on his window that let him know if the window was open and it was raining. **What you DON'T want to do:** Whatever you do, don't try to be clever. Don't split up your seed phrase or store it in a wacky way. Lots of people have lost Bitcoin because they forgot where they stored their seed phrase, or they split it up and lost part. When you're setting this stuff up, you need to be saying to yourself, "Will I really remember this years from now?" Think long term.

1. What evidence do you have that exchanges are selling BTC and not fully covered on their depositor's BTC positions? 2. That's part of the issue though, many people (maybe even most) DON'T want to custody their own coins.

Ah France, you continue giving me reasons as to why I DON'T live there.

It's nothing like gambling. People are idiots. The finance world is also filled with idiots. Crypto is pretty predictable. The only way you'll lose money is by pulling money out when you get scared that you're losing it or by buying coins/tokens on a DEX. Buy from a reputable exchange like Coinbase. Don't buy when anything is peaking. Don't buy the trending coins. Whatever is peaking is a bout to fall. If it's 140% 24hr change, in 24hrs it will be -50%. WATCH those gainers for a week. Just watch them. They'll fall, but then they'll come back up higher. People get scared when the price "moves" against them. But if you just wait it out, you'll be fine. If you buy at the peak, you'll watch the value of your investment shrink rapidly before making money on it. People are so stupid, I cannot begin to tell you. You can't buy ANY investment, stocks, bonds, silver, gold, crypto, or whatever, at any random time. You have to plan your entry and exit. Again, people lose money because their stupid, lazy, or greedy. Usually all three. Don't pay attention to financial news. They have absolutely ZERO insight on both the financial world and crypto. They're just as stupid. There is also tons of money to be made on anything when the price is falling. You can make money on stocks and crypto whether the price is moving up or down. I'll say that again: You can make money on stocks and crypto whether the price is moving up or down. Directionality doesn't matter, at all. Only movement does. You can't make money on anything if the price is always the same. Short stocks and crypto when they are top gainers, and long positions on stocks and crypto that are usually at the top, but have fallen into the red. Easy money. DON'T muddy the waters with anything "financial". If anything, study fractals, calculus, geometry and trig.

All I can say after having 15K locked up for two weeks and a sudden account closure that sold off positions low without notifying me is DON'T do RobinHood, they are scammers.

But my retirement was based on a 8-bit image of a frog with a top hat. WHY DON’T PEOPLE SEE THE VALUE IN THIS!?

Are you nuts? It's like investing in a stock of a company who you don't know who the CEO is or what the vision will be. How can you trust someone you DON'T KNOW, with your money? It's a pyramid scheme.

BECAUSE PEOPLE DON'T NORMALLY WALK IN A BANK AND ASK FOR 50K WITHOUT CALLING FIRST. Are you a simpleton? This dude was doing something extremely stupid (not just getting a cashiers check) so he could flex on social media. This isn't a normal thing that happens.

Just remember... DON'T SELL!

I know no one will listen but you can, just don’t buy stupid stuff. I did retire in my 30s,. I think I worked only a few year out of college parlayed my knowledge of semi conductors. I used to be in this field wrote about AMD probably 8 years ago and was buying that stock at $1.80 https://np.reddit.com/r/AMD_Stock/comments/9v1n6f/amazon_web_services_aws_pricing_amd_vs_intel/e994dka/ 4/5 years ago when NVDA was under $30 (split price) I said they really have no peer in this space and it will probably be the biggest company in the world. https://np.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/qw9glx/im_surprised_there_isnt_more_nvda_talk_before/ https://np.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/1bw9c8l/goldman_sachs_and_morgan_knowingly_offering_scams/ https://np.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/1fcxevz/coreweave_the_scam_that_is_inflating_smci_and/ If I found a decent investment I’d put every bit of spare money I had to it. DON’T waste your money on consumerism. Drive an old Toyota 15+ years old but it has everything heated seats, Navi, power everything it probably runs better than new cars and I only pay liability. Don’t buy stuff, people literally throw out really nice desks, TVs, computers, workout equipment, weights at my college town every end of month and definite end of semester year. I furnished my first place all with free good stuff. Old fridge, old washer/dryer they are way better built than the new ones. Free bikes. I never really buy clothes either and when I do it’s the thrift store. No subscriptions I buy DVDs for 25 cents and watch over the air or YouTube with adblocker Nothing in my house furniture wise was bought, it was all free and it’s all really good stuff. All that money I saved in car payments/insurance, clothes furniture, subscriptions I put into AMD, NVDA, BTC etc I don’t feed these stupid subscriptions, I have a decent Toyota but I like riding my free bikes it’s great exercise and I rarely fill up the car. I think I only worked a few years ~5 years, the last few I had enough money and I’d show up 1 day a week and being financially independent I pretty much gave them the Office Space FU the 1 day I did work then in my 30s I said time was too valuable to waste working. It’s possible don’t buy stuff, the less you buy the more you can invest and if it hits. Boom you’re set no more rat race but you need a decent amount invested to make it compound to life changing money. This isn’t a brag post most people would see my 15+ yo car, my thrift store clothes and think I’m poor but I retired in my 30s and my time is all mine, no one to tell when.where to be, no alarm, I have no idea what day it is sometimes, Monday or Thursday or Saturday is all the same, just travel the world and learn.
