DasRedBeard87

Let me answer your question and ANY future question about "is it too late." NO. It's NEVER too late to EVER invest in anything. Time in market beats Timing the market. Just INVEST. Because investing beats not investing regardless of what it is. ESPECIALLY if you believe BTC is going to go to 200k, 500k, 1m etc etc. Even if you're just putting in small amounts every week or whatever...that .01 of BTC will still net you more money than if you never invested in the first place and it'll net you more than it sitting in a shitty "high yeild savings account."

Here’s what happened to me: found out about it back when it hit $10,000. I remember seeing something about it hitting $10k on the news or through conversation and thought to myself “wow, that must be nice for someone who has $10k to blow”. NOBODY EVER TOLD ME YOU CAN BUY FRACTIONS OF IT! a simple google search into it would have answered all of that, but i figured why would i do that if i can’t buy one BTC anyways? ignorance costed me.

Do you really have your seed memorized?!? And are you betting all your Bitcoin on never forgetting it EVER by actually not having it stored any where else at ALL?!? I’d love to get to that point but WOW, it doesn’t feel totally realistic.

It’s on Base because it’s still in Testnet. Mainnet is coming in about 2-3 weeks and the Base token will be tradable 1:1 with the native token. Blows my mind how Google post an article about a blockchain for the first time EVER and people are still calling it a shit coin. Have fun staying poor

xarips

The OKX team just burned 65m tokens and the OKB coin jumped 170% in response This is the biggest and quickest god candle I have EVER seen in crypto of a large cap ever. This is absolutely unprecedented.

AwayWorker901

First of all you should NEVER leave any amount of btc on the exchange. Good way to get it confiscated. Idc if its .0001btc always always always self custody in cold storage. Secondly the blockchain holds a record of every transaction EVER and its individual parameters. So all you need do is reference the transaction id and you can use exactly what was paid.

AwayWorker901

Sk Every single transaction EVER is recorded on the blockchain so you just need to get the transaction id from your wallet and reference the price on a block chain viewer. Pretty simple actually. You should step up yo blockchain knowledge friend!

BlueskiesBlkD

I guess you get the point by now reading all the comments here. But I will add 1 more thing I didn't see. MOST financial advisor can NOT even consider btc. Even Jamie Dimon of JP. Morgan said 2017 that u will be fired if you buy btc. & Jan 2025 DIMON said its a Ponzi. Update now Jp. Morgan has thier own coin (jpm) & now he tells reporters that he will allow his customers to buy it. ALLOW 🤣 & he's NOT going to take anymore questions on btc. No one has EVER lost money holding btc 4 years or more 16 year track record & beat the S&P 500 12 out 15 years. What possible 🤔 could be better. You can loose your own money without them. I mean diversify 😆 🤣. OK my number is 25-30% BTC & RELATED crypto holdings. Choose your number

Terrible-Tomato6514

There wont be an altcoin season, because the entire crypto industry is flooded with shitcoins and shitmemecoins, they piled up so many shitcoins that the money doesn't even know where to pump. That what happend. 99.9% of cryptocurrencies are trash/scams. I promise you and guarantee everyone in this comment section. There will never be another altcoin season NEVER EVER not happening. You will see some of the altcoins taking gains. Because if all altcoins started pumping it would need trillions of marketcap. Where is that money coming from me? Not from me. Again no altcoin season ever again.

qp0n

I wrote my seed phrase down and put it in my safe. One day I was feeling extra paranoid someone might somehow break in/steal it & wanted to make them think it was worthless... so I opened it up and at the top of the paper I wrote "best scrabble win EVER!"

Particular-Art627

Bro, you buy and never sell. This isn’t trading some shitcoin. Rule 1: never EVER sell BTC. You’ll most likely never be able to get an entry price like before. If you need the cash, find a broker that offers low interest loans to buy other assets. Don’t ever sell. Ever. This will be capped one day in the future with no more to mine.

Swerve99

you violated rule number 1 which is NEVER EVER NEVER put your seed phrase anywhere besides a piece of paper that only YOU have access to. the only time you ever need it is to recover your wallet yourself. NO ONE BUT YOU ever needs to see or hear or sniff your phrase. sorry OP but it’s gone.

retrorays

OpSec don't EVER mention crypto. Just say you invest in the stock market

Thank you. They can and they will do that. On the technical side, it's not possible to block bitcoin usage unless you essentially disable Internet access entirely. This becomes increasingly unrealistic as we get things like starlink. Besides, no government has yet cut off itself entirely from the broader internet and I haven't thought about this enough to understand why. They certainly do put up firewalls, but they never cut off entirely. This is an environment where something like Bitcoin absolut thrives. There is no central node that can be blocked. For every node they block, another 10 will just pop up. On the economic side, bitcoin will keep going up in value as more people adopt it. This means that it's value in proportion to any fiat will keep increasing forever. Ok this is really basic but hear me out. It's where game theory comes into play. Government money will always inflate, Bitcoin will not. In the entire history of money, it has always inflated without any exceptions. Bitcoin is the FIRST time this has changed EVER. This simple fact means that eventually someone will finally find a price where they are willing to part with their bitcoin in exchange for your government coin. As you exit the inflating money system, your purchasing power increases and so does Bitcoin demand. This makes more people want to join. This spiral basically continues, further weakening the government coin to the point where it is worthless in proportion to bitcoin. I am not the best at explaining this. I think Jeff Booth does it a lot better.

>Next time, when you're buying a new desktop, or a new phone. All you need to do to re-create your "Watch-Only" wallet is your public key (xpub or zpub), which you can import safely, without worries into ANY wallet. You can export your public key out of ANY hardware OR software wallet. On your phone, on your desktop. Doesn't matter. This is such ridiculously good advice. Unless you're actually spending, you should NEVER EVER EVER EVER need to enter private seeds, pins, passphrases, anything. So when you get a new device, why not just use the xpub/zpub and not worry about it? The added benefit is it will also stop you doing anything emotional like rush selling during price volatility because you'll be like, "ugh I haven't even set up the wallet to spend, I don't want to deal with it." :) You can even keep buying and sending to cold storage without seed words because you can easily generate receive addresses from the xpub/zpub.

Dunphy66

That's just literally not true. There isn't a single human who's invested and helf into the S&P since the beginning of the market that has lost money or even broken even over a 10 year period. Not one. Bitcoin has a better chance of hitting fucking zero tonight than it does of EVER having the long term success the S&P has had.

SpecialistOwn1459

I HOPE EVERYONE FINALLY GET THE WHOLE AMOUNT OF BITCOIN THEY EVER DREAMED ABOUT. But what happens after that ? Make sure you are also creating balance for your life, or else you will be spending your bitcoin alone surrounded by false friends trying to feed off you. NOTE: Dont forget, all the government need to do is "shut down the internet or brokerage" then your bitcoin is gone,so trade wisely.

There are decade long 100 million dollar Ponzi schemes that are more compliant with FINRA and SEC “regulation” than ANYTHING THEY WILL EVER APPLY TO CRYPTO. These “financial regulators” are pathetic criminally incompetent irrelevant clowns. You are assuming financial regulators are functional. You are assuming insurance and financial executives are competent. You are assuming corporate compliance departments do their jobs. You are assuming that RC, the head Wall Street spermburper dirtbag at FINRA, doesn’t have a K street lobbyist’s balls deep in his mouth right now and has a line of lobbyists at his door. https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/usa-finra-brokers/ You have to stand back in awe of FINRA and SEC criminality and incompetence. Our stock and bond markets are nonphysical, unsecured, diluted, misrated, overvalued, manipulated, unstable, whipsawing, corrupt, ponzified, unsustainable, unproductive, private equity infested, high frequency traded and unregulated by a horrifically and criminally incompetent SEC that ignores Ponzi schemes for decades. FINRA, like the NAIC, turns non-regulation into profit and the FIO doesn’t even PRETEND to regulate insurance markets. Our markets are executive compensation schemes, pump and dump media and GAAP, pure accounting deception. These markets are a burden on any REAL economy. Eat shit FINRA and the SEC, for all your corrupt bullshit. When insider trading, illegal communications, HIPAA crimes and executive corruption become “lost emails”. https://www.reuters.com/article/world/finra-fines-lpl-financial-9-million-for-email-violations-idUSBRE94K0MA/ May RC and RK, the last two FINRA shitstreak marks, win the FINRA arbitration fraud award, named after themselves, for themselves. https://www.fa-mag.com/news/court-overturns--1-2m-wells-fargo-arbitration--citing-secret-finra-agreement-66203.html

And so yea, Fight!

WildDakota24

You have to answer one simple question. Do you think the price is going to EVER be higher than now? If yes then you buy. If not then don't buy btc.

HarmonyFlame

🤡 I have way more bitcoin than you would ever believe you absolute jester. Trust me no one on this sub trading shit coins knows dick about this market which is why they are invested into eth to begin with. That includes you. You in profit since April oh how cute. Everyone who ever bought bitcoin EVER is in profit. Haha something not a single alt coiner can actually say. You’re literally waiting on bitcoiners to buy your shitcoin bags lol. You might want to watch how you talk to bitcoiners, we control your whole fucking financial lives you know that? Btw I can give a fuck less about downvoting morons that frequent this sub are you kidding me. Yall are literally going to be working for me soon enough.

lidge7012

Smart of you not to disclose how much BTC you have. If others at work know, they can try to give you a tough time because of jealousy. And NEVER EVER let your boss know anything that's beneficial for you. Most of them don't want the best for you.

InvoluntaryEraser

Exactly. Crypto, namely BTC, is all about financial freedom. The whole "Never, EVER sell" rhetoric is bullshit and people only say it so it will go higher so that THEY can sell for a higher price.

I did the same in 2017 and haven't looked back. Best decision I EVER made. Instead of wasting money killing yourself you can save that money in actual money which preserves that purchasing power.

UbermenschMatt

NEVER, EVER, use KYC on a foreign exchange unless you know EXACTLY how your country polices foreign exchanges. I've never had an issue with WEEX, and have never completed KYC, because the USA has very strict policing policies for foreign exchanges. Your accounts are getting locked because of LOCAL regulations in the country where you reside, which are automatically flagging your accounts as "suspicious activity". It has nothing to do with WEEX. The exchange is simply analyzing the data and comparing it to guidelines set by the laws in your country, and using those guidelines to determine whether or not your account activity is "suspicious". This practice is common across many exchanges, including Binance.

Tatdnguyen

You won’t believe what I said bc you are too sure of myself. But I will still tell you and hope you don’t dig yourself into a hole that will hurt your financial. #1 rule when investing into cryptocurrencies is NEVER EVER use the money that you need to invest into it. NEVER borrow anybody money or banks to invest into it. Yes, if it works out. You think you are superior. You will then borrow $100k next time. One of this day. It will stressed you out to the max and take a big loss. You will be in a hole that you will never get out of. If it doesn’t work out for you. You will have to pay interest after interest. Hopefully your family ( parent) will bail you out. Bc now a day. To save $10k is not easy. We are not rich people. To some of us 10k is all our saving for a rainy day for our family. I really hope you read all this words carefully and consider next time borrowing. A stranger friend.

Ethericl

Okay sorry to burst anyone’s bubble but if BTC doesn’t at least retrace to ~55k it would be the first time EVER where BTC’s ATH isn’t followed by a 50-90% dip. Every single time BTC hits ATH it goes and retraces 50-90% before it goes and does roughly a 5x during the next halving cycle bull run. For example in 2020 we saw BTC go to ~3.5k a coin at its bottom from its peak of nearly 20k in 2018. And now in 2025 BTC has done a 5x from its top in 2018.

I'm not going to lie, but summer time is always slow as shit for crypto...June to September is when things tend to crab. It's always been like this for the last several cycles. I have a feeling that things might heat up end of August and into September before peaking in October, and if they do it's only for a short while, and you have to have an exit strategy or you will get smoked. Don't marry coins. If you're going to hold, hold BTC and BTC ONLY. Do NOT hold alt coins between cycles, EVER. One thing that every alt coin bag holder has and will learn and will have to learn, one way or another, hard or easy. That shit will tank much worse than BTC does if things go south. Always DCA into whatever it is you're buying into, don't go in all at once, because one never knows which direction the market could turn and it can happen with very little in the way of warning. People think that the market will keep trending higher, it's human instinct to think that you're going to just keep winning, but the tables turn...every time and that time is no different to the time before and time before that. Always play it safe, but be smart about it. You know it's cooked, you know the market is not playing most of us nicely (and was never intended to - it was designed to enrich the top guns at the expensive of little guys like you and I). You know what is going on, as I do, and as most of us know. The market is crabbing and there isn't a single thing we can do about it, except hope that things start trending upwards as we come out of August. If you hold shitty alts, you can only hope that institutions will buy into them (good luck with that), and stick to BTC if you want to play the HODLing game, because we know what has happened the last 4 cycles, and we know where BTC is and where it was. As for alts, they are a shitshow, a side circus with some wonderful entertainment and a get-rich-quick vibe that we know always turns to a pile of steaming horseshit in the end. Play it safe. Play BTC, and stop complaining.

rgnet1

I don't understand why there should EVER be liquidation risk on the bitcoin when the house itself is also backing the mortgage? Or is it not? And if not, then how is it even a mortgage, and not just a regular collateralized loan? It seems like the bitcoin held in custody should just be used as a "proof of income" where the only time it is (partially) liquidated is if the borrower fails to service the debt on time. The lender then sells the custodied bitcoin only enough to cover the payment.

sandwitchmistress

I would transfer that aaaaaalllll to Monero if that were me dawgie.......Best of luck, in the future never ever EVER suggest grandma invest in a meme coin......

Chambana_Raptor

Yeah so the cryptocurrency market is highly speculative and thus volatile. In general, buying near all time highs is...not a great strategy. Look up the Bitcoin halving cycle, and then track Bitcoin dominance. And for shit's sake, before you EVER invest in a new market -- watch it for a year or so first to get an idea of the basics.

IntrepidFarmer5666

Crypto is a scam and it will always be some are just being utilized to hold wealth like BTC but they are all essentially nothing but Ponzi schemes  Look at the Circle stock rally while crypto bleed for weeks just goes to show you stable coins are the only thing big money has any interest in and all the rest is just a way for them to automate profits thru pump and dumping the entire market  Why bother with this mountain of trash when you can easily make more money thru options or penny stocks for fucks sake every quantum computing stock I had last year is up 2,000 percent or more  Stop feeding the rich if they have no more buyers to scam they will be forced to liquidate since all of them are leveraged trading who cares about crypto these 1,000 percent gains you are bag holding for can easily be obtainable in the stock market Want proof how easy it is? KLTO  Just one of my many biotech and micro cap stocks that have gone up hundreds to thousands of percent in the past couple weeks never going back to crypto trading EVER when there are easier options to get returns with the same amount of risk

brianmonarch

What do you own? I mean, they are in the midst of passing crypto legislation for the first time EVER. So yes... Potential is likely about to turn into reality for a lot of alt coins. Are you in Bitcoin or another coin where everyone hates XRP? Hahaha... There's a reason why it went from .40 to 3.40 inside of a year months ago. There's a reason why it's being adopted. There's a reason why it is being used unlike most every other crypto currency. There's a reason it has been in the top 10 coins since it's inception, including during the unfair SEC attack. There's so much hate for this coin that people can't see all this and honestly it's just so cloudy to even try for people that are maxis or haters.

xpresstuning

If you do it as follows, then it's pretty fucking safe: 1. Factory-reset an extra smartphone i had. No SIM card at all. 2. Connected it to my own password-secured Wi-Fi. 3. Installed Bluewallet, then created wallet (wrote down the seed phrase). 4. Imported said wallet to create a passphrase (wrote down the passphrase), thus a different wallet. It's a really nice, additional layer of protection. 5. Exported the master public key of this wallet (12 word seed-phrase + passphrase) and wrote down some stuff regarding it (like the derivation path). 6. Uninstalled Bluewallet, factory-reset the extra smartphone then disconnected it from my Wi-Fi. Turned the phone completely off. 7. Imported said wallet (12 word seed-phrase + passphrase) in Bluewallet as "Watch-only" on my personal phone. It exists only to receive BTC. Key points: - Android/iOS is significantly more secure than anything on a desktop or laptop. Never EVER put your seed phrase on those systems. - A passphrase is absolutely mandatory. Lowers security risk. - Exposure on the internet should be as low as possible; 10 - 15 min. Further lowers risk. - HODL long-term. Avoid using your seed phrase & passphrase as much as possible, and DO NOT use it on your personal phone. The key to self-ownership is to be as careful as possible. I believe that this setup is very secure. And the only way I'd store Bitcoin long term. Your choice of Bluewallet as your software wallet is good; It's the best software wallet for Bitcoin there is on the phone. 👌

I checked and it seems to be legit, but I would still only ever use this as a last resort EVER, your files should never be in a cloud and your seed phrase should only ever hit a hardware wallet and nothing else

Jesus Christ dude, no I don't. Jimmy Carter sold his peanut farm. No other president has EVER done this shit. Other Republicans like dick Cheney have blatantly abused their positions to enrich their companies. Your question is the projection that the right uses to justify their literal treason and lies. "Well if Obama was also a rapist, he would have raped E Carol too! "Well if Obama was a traitor, he would've also tried to overthrow democracy on Jan 6" "Well if Obama was also Trump, he would've been divorced twice and had kids with three women too!" Like no dude, Trump is literally a traitor and racist and rapist and shitty person, and claiming the Democrats "would do it too " is absolute nonsense.

Lets_Get_Retard

I personally didn’t even entertain the thought of hardware wallets. Just to think, if I were to EVER lose that tiny little keychain charm (which is likely to happen to anybody), I would lose access to all my funds? No thanks. I’d rather make a cold wallet on an air-gapped device, that way I can write down my private key as many times as I feel comfortable doing so (it takes a damn while lol). Also, if you have people you 1000% can trust with your life, sharing copies of private keys can add security as well as a Plan B if you were to lose your copy(ies). For example, me and my brother both have cold wallets, and are both in possession of each others’ private keys, as well as our own. Always remember to NEVER STORE your PRIVATE KEY DIGITALLY! Write it down, engrave it in metal, etc.. NEVER take a picture of your keys even if you’re going to delete them right away!

FaZaCon

Don't EVER buy into alt coins when they're near their ATH. The only way I would build a diversified ALT coin portfolio is if the alt's were all down nearly 90% from their ATH.

Congratulations, you're part of the 95% that willingly crush their soul with debt for the entire duration of their life, while they "plan" for "rEtIrEmEnT". Because that juicy pension sure is going to be wonderful when you've got 5 years left to live. By the way, did you know that the word "mortgage" is derived from an 'ol latin term that means "death pledge"? I'm not blaming you, OP. Neither am i saying that you're participating in this. But I swear to God, I see this all the time. I'll never EVER understand this mentality of drowning in debt through mortgages, car loans, credit card debt, college loans. Particularly in the US.

IAmSomewhatDamaged

Haven’t been on Reddit in almost a week, so I’m getting back to you way late… but HELL YEAH man. I would say I make slightly above average when it comes to my job, so I never had thousands to toss at BTC, but the best thing I EVER did was say “fuck it” and throw a couple grand at BTC. I did it in December 2022 when price was like $16k or $17k I think. I just remember being VERY reluctant to do it, but a buddy (younger guy) from work convinced me to do it. I THEN set up a weekly DCA almost immediately— anywhere from $30 a week to $50 a week depending on how good I was on bills. I might have canceled/renewed it at points along the way. I have close to 1/3 of a coin now, with a $33k average price. It’s not much, but I am fucking PROUD of myself for sticking to it and not giving up. If I didn’t set up that weekly auto-buy, I’m positive that I wouldn’t have been buying it NEARLY as often (or even at all possibly). Anyway, you are absolutely right about getting more confident/comfortable when you’re up. Downward price movement doesn’t bother me at all anymore. I wish you the best of luck bromosapien 🚀

“Do I hold or sell” don’t listen to Reddit for financial advice, EVER

Elemental_Breakdown

Hahaha good for you. Don't worry, it will go down, see my previous comments about the free month of Coinbase paid tier and wait to activate until you see it starts crashing, which it absolutely does and will on occasion. Also, think of this as a 30 year investment minimum or something to give to your kids or eventual kids. The one thing we all agree on is that you do NOT EVER SELL. Live under a bridge and survive on the drippings from the ceiling before you ever sell. And don't get suckered into ANY OTHER CRYPTO. It's 100% garbage without exception.

Dumb take. Do you really expect THE BEST PERFORMING ASSET EVER to be ignored by hedge funds, governments, institutions???? Bitcoin is for EVERYONE.

IAmCtrlFreak

This is why we can’t give them our bitcoin. Stack it. Don’t spend it. EVER. I can pay for coffee with bitcoin?? FOH take my fiat. I can pay my taxes with BTC??? FOH take my fiat. Pay bills with BTC??? FOH TAKE MY FIAT.

You can either have the key to your box of toys or allow someone you trust to hold the key for you. The benefit of having someone else hold the key is that you don’t have to worry about losing the key and NEVER getting access to your tows EVER AGAIN. If that scares you - to NEVER be able to play with your toys EVER AGAIN - then let someone else trustworthy hold your the key. If, however, you ABSOLUTELY believe and know that YOU will NOT lose your key, then you can hold onto your own key and will always be able to play with your toys. It’s up to you. How safe is the key in your own hands?

they could have bought a month ago at $76K, i don't and wont even understand why people wait till it is the highest price its EVER been and feel good about that. I agree that buying btc is a wise investment but you can get it on sale, like - all the time.

Well I must admit, not buying Ethereum in 2015 when I had the chance to buy 10,000 of them was my biggest fail in crypto. I'd known about Bitcoin for a couple years beforehand right after it made $1000 per coin, and I'd been lured into Quarkcoin with a foray of about $3k. If I'd bought BTC at $600 and bought 5 of them, those alone would be worth $500k, and that is without ever doing anything with them. If I'd exchanged those for 10k Ethereum, today I'd be pretty wealthy. Got blindsided by Quarkcoin, got cold feet, and instead of one success leading to a string of successes, I had one failure leading to fear, not learning, and not getting to anywhere near, not even 1% of my potential wealth, likely generational wealth. There is nothing worse than not ONLY not gaining generational wealth due to your own stupidity, but ALSO having fucked up health. The second one is worse, but it compounds the first, and the two in perfect (actually, perfect isn't the word, nightmarish is more appropriate) synchronicity make for a terrible human experience and one that I may have to spend years living down. I might forgive myself for not realising my hearing was going down the drain slowly (albeit in sudden episodes) and my memory was going to crap, but I will NOT EVER forgive myself for being so stupid as I was in 2014 and 2015. Living and learning, but the lesson has come far too late. TL;DR:- Humans make mistakes, but these mistakes will haunt me until the day I take my last breath (which, as far as I'm aware, isn't too far off if the disease I'm currently dealing with keeps getting worse).

They have already stated they will have to sell BTC to cover the coupon payments on their bonds next year. You can bet your ass professional traders will be building postitons to exploit the headline "STRATEGY REQUIRED TO SELL BTC FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER TO SERVICE DEBT" by chart painting, then bots and panicking retail joins it, suddenly strategy needs to sell to remain solvent.... it's going to be a bloodbath

If you have a way to buy it at 16 then that's good. Starting that young with Bitcoin and already wanting to Long Term hold is great also. You need to learn about Cold Wallets and Seed Phrases. Understand their importance when it comes to storing your Bitcoin. Learn what to do and what not to do with your Seed Phrase. Never ever ever give that to anyone EVER!

If bitcoin never sees a bear market again, if it assumes that position of dominance and continuous growth, then we will know it has been compromised. The digital gold has already taken the stock market by storm, swept into companies and now the final frontier is the Government. The essential enemy of bitcoin and the nemesis of all true HODLers is accepting bitcoin, not because it wants to profit from it, because it wants to control it. They are accumulating bitcoin en masse, driving it into centralized exchanges, centralized mining pools. No coincidence, as the halving picks up steam, the amount of new bitcoin entering the market could become lower than the amount the government will buy or sell. Although they can never control it directly, if they accumulate a critical mass of bitcoins, they could control the supply, and hold the price in their hands. Therefore making it a central currency. Never, EVER sell your bitcoin. Hold it as offline as you can. They’re coming for it.

[THIS IS THE WORST DAY EVER TO BUY BITCOIN...](https://old.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1ks7av2/this_is_the_worst_day_ever_to_buy_bitcoin/) We'll see how long it stays up 😆

I___Hate___People

Zzz so cringe and low effort to just copy whatever trash the ai prompt spits out at you. No wonder your account history is desperation posting a meme coin. If you bought BTC just about EVER you’d likely be in the green and not crying that the market isn’t fair. No crying in the casino, kid.

Holding fucking shitcoins never did anyone any favors EVER. Time in the market was better spent fucking call girls or sniffing coke. No, seriously. Don't ever hold alts long term unless you want to watch your pennies disappear into the ether - and they will.

Lets get gew thinhs striaght bc u sound like you halfway know what your saying. BTC CAN go to a million dollars each ONLY if the US dollar completley collapsted and was then replaced "whixh will NEVER HAPPEN in our lifetime" stablecoins with a value like usd 1, 5,10,20,50,100 is wat u will witness bro u teally think ANY goverment is guna lat a Crypto who no1 knows made that ows 6millnand xould crash everytging to o. Then 15% ish is akready list forever. Sonlets say BEST case a MAX supply EVER of 14mill coins replace USD and be our new currencey lmfaooo. If that happens the US/ will hire worlds top crypto peeps and make there OWN digital currencey they fully control from the start and can pront more when needes like now
