>No, it's the counterpoint to the "vaccines should never be challenged" narrative. That was never the narrative. Every drug is literally challenged before being available to the public. Even after so many decades, there is no proof that vaccines cause Autism, or are in any significant way dangerous. Honestly I can understand the scepticism for the covid vaccine. It's the first time we used the mrna vaccine, but even this one was thouroughly tested before being administered. And a whole lot of people have had atleast one dose, and there is nothing suggesting it was harmful. >What will you say about Nord stream? Are you alleging the US blew that up? >What will you say about Nord stream? Or that they are forcing people to the front lines and firing at those who are retreating? I'm sorry, who's forcing who to the front lines and firing at those who are retreating? The nord stream MAY very well be blown up by the US or Ukraine, but that happened after Russia attacked it. >What will you say about Nord stream? Or that they are forcing people to the front lines and firing at those who are retreating? Or that soft power projection can be construed as an attack? >Latvia, Estonia In what way are Latvia and Estonia a counter argument? Maybe I'm forgetting the time when Russia had a good reputation among it's neighbours. Would be quite a shocker considering how they were occupied by the Soviet Union for decades prior. And Nato is a defence pact, not an attack pact. You are literally repeating Russian propaganda and expect people to listen to you lol. >This is entirely false. We both know this I often wonder if anti-vaxxers, conspiracy theorists and idiots in general had a meeting just after covid in which they seemingly concluded that the covid vaccine (and apparently all vaccines in general) were a bold faced lie. Because it sure does seem like that. We eradicated various diseases, large portion of the population have taken various vaccines including the covid vaccine (after which they were supposed to fall dead 2 years ago, still waiting btw) and countless studies have been conducted on vaccines in the pas few decades, yet apparently all this is entirely false.

I get what he is saying. But the error I see is his argument confuses INVESTMENT with RESERVE HOLDING. Real Estate MAY be a good investment but it is risky to think of it as a reserve holding. Without judging in anyway the VIABILITY of it as an asset, like ANY ASSET (including Bitcoin) depending on its ability to PRODUCE revenue from which cost of ownership/operation can be deducted to accrue profit and a return on one’s investment, real estate MAY be a good investment. However as a reserve asset real estate is not a good investment for many of the reasons this young man points out. Bitcoin is in my estimation a far better and probably best choice for a personal reserve asset right now. I own reserves. Bitcoin. I don’t sell reserves. That would be counter to their purpose and in my estimation, foolish.

I am the CEO of bitcoin and I did not say this. I said we MAY not reduce prices. Will have to see what happens to the flux capacitors first.

Ramdom_c-137

Predictable outcome, Bitcoin MAY reach an ATH on the halving, it probably wont though. Then immediately a crash will follow. 12-18 months from now you'll see an even bigger ATH

MysteryLiezer

I’m glad you were able to justify it! Personally, tipping people simply isn’t worth my time or the effort with lightning, or my sats in the form of transaction fees on the base layer. All I was saying, before, is that the guy has a point: lightning ISN’T being adopted in a way where the public can consider Bitcoin fast, ESPECIALLY when, like he said, we struggle with even getting these people to believe in Bitcoin in the first place. Believing that it isn’t worth exploring different later 2 solutions that MAY work better than lightning (not just for ease of use to the people who already believe, but for ease of adoption to the people who just don’t quite get it yet) is what’s currently standing in the way of this top 10 asset in the world being even SLIGHTLY recognized as legitimate by the (over) 95% of people living in it who couldn’t care less about it…

I don’t understand why you don’t understand it. But here lemme give you a quickie while I finish my poop 💩, currently we’re mining 6.25 btc per block. When a miner solves the complicated math puzzle they are awarded the block + all the fees obtained from the block. On April 20th, the reward will be cut down to 3.125, and the math puzzles will increase in difficulty. This means that for miners to make their moneys worth they’ll need to sell bitcoin at a higher rate then they are. This also means bitcoin being introduced into the world will half what it is now. Before the ETF was approved hodlers (little guys like you and me, some bigger guys too) were acclimating roughly 1100 btc a day from exchanges,and only 900 were being mined. AFTER the ETF got approved the amount of btc being bought up damn near 10X a day. Now instead of 900 bitcoins coming into the world a day there will only be 450 (roughly its not perfect), soooooooo, supply squeeze, demand squeeze, I will bet on it that the halving will 100% increase the price of bitcoin substantially. Like it has every time it’s happened. It MAY dip, and if you see it dip, buy up as much as you can because it won’t stay there for long I tell you, it never does. This isn’t my first rodeo. This isn’t financial advice, but only a fool wouldn’t listen.

This is what we call a derivation path, you may have encountered written like: ormation or anything. Now BIP32 takes this main seed and can generate wallets under different accounts, and these wallets can have sub-wallets. This is what we call a derivatin path, you may have encountered written like: `m/44'/0'/0'/0/0` The meaning being: Because there have been multiple wallets over the years, some use different derivation paths, and all of them had their own reasons(good or bad). Now the problem is that you most likely are backing up Bitcoin, to use 10s of years in the future, and then there is NO guarantee, the new wallets will use the same derivation paths as the wallet you use to generate. So you may ask why is this a problem? Well because you have to guess which derivation path was used, which in some cases MAY not be practical, hence why you should ALWAYS write down the wallet you used to generate a seed and the year. ​ This website(https://walletsrecovery.org/) tries to keep track of all the multiple derivation paths used by wallets over the years, I'm sure you can see why BIP39 now is a total mess. ​ MrRGnome, is talking about this new standard, which you backup also the additional piece of information that will 100% guarantee you in the future you can spend the coins. Wallet descriptos look kinda weird, and they are quite big, however the tradeoff is that they are not that sensitive, you can store then even in plain site in your house. If someone finds them, they cant spend your coins without the seed, they can just tell how many coins you have. Hope this makes things clear :D

DeoVeritati

By definition, it isn't bullshit. If a person can make a material difference in their life TODAY by selling, don't shit on them for doing that even if it means they MAY be forgoing POTENTIAL gains in the future. Cultlike behavior I really do believe is a deterrent to the adoption/interest of bitcoin among most individuals... I sold a house in a growing market that has increased like 30% in 1 year. But I got a better but cheaper house, and I don't have to manage property out of state which makes my life substantially better.

BiTCOIN NOWADAYS will behave according to NORMAL Financial Cycles, not having a life of its own. So we MUST acknowledge that we are nearing the end of QUARTER 1. For traditional INVESTORS we are coming to an end of the 2024 Price Rally and will enter that Interval where Everyone (institutional and private investors) will Rebalance Their PORTFOLIOS and MOST LIKELY, given the strong surge in prices, will take PROFITS on the Gains of 2024. 31/3/2024 is also the end of the Fiscal Year in Japan , like 31 december for us. I suspect that nearing end of March and Beginning of MAY, there will be a lot of distribution (selling of assets) that will mark a TOP, and in MAY failure to rise further will increase selling that will trigger a CORRECTION until END JUNE/JULY. So, the eventual last WAVE UP before distribution, will be STRONG and SHORT LIVED (2 weeks time).How do we know? Looking at BITCOIN the last 2 tops lasted 1 month (April could be the time for it). If next 2 days, today included, the price closes above ALL TIME HIGHS of 2021, we most likely will see BUYING and my CHART says we have ROOM to 80,000 , if that breaks then 110,000 . Less likely but I leave it open because as I said we have until end of MARCH. However, most PERFORMANCE will be done by ALT COINs. Rather than buying BITCOIN here I would buy ALT COINS, especially those left behind. For 3% gain in Bitcoin an ALTCOIN will give you 12% gain. However BUYING with the knowledge that you must take Profits in April while the Top is in the BUILDING. ALSO Start looking for TAKE PROFITS on all YOUR CRYPTOS. Which you may Buy BACK in JULY. REMEMBER 2021: it did exactly that pattern I just described because it was the CRYPTO ADOPTION by FINANCE PROFESSIONALS. And what is feeding the price rise now is CERTAINLY NOT the early adopters BUT aggressive FINANCE PROFESSIONALS (Hedge Funds and Investment Banks) + since 2024 the small traditional investors via ETFS REMEMBER what I wrote end 2023? THIS is the last ADOPTION PHASE by the "masses". After this phase BTC will become a nirmal asset with normal performance. The potential TOP is 100,000 to 150,000. Obviously you will read everywhere wishful emotional analysis that we are going to 250,000. Stick to LOGIC, TECHNICAL ANALYSIS and FINANCIAL CYCLES. Extract from my analysis.

Nice! its a good start, but as an individual, you should also consider taking some Bitcoin into self-custody.. for just in case.. Just so you are aware, just like money in your bank account is not your money, its the banks, bitcoin in the ETF is not yours its the funds. What you have is a promissory note that they MAY give you the proceeds of your share in dirty fiat, whenever you decide to cash out, that is NOT the Bitcoin way.

Its starting to froth up. Not only on our side with the laser eyes and lambo/yacht/mansion talk. But the garbage coins are getting attention again, hyping up the better returns, small price bias and carnival barking promotion. It will be fun to sit back and watch this time around as opposed to being stressed about stacking. I MAY actually be smart this time around and use my past bull/bear experience to my advantage. Slow down the use of dry powder, enjoy the 18-24 months and then start dca'ing back in when the party ends.

I wonder where BTC holders are gonna unload their earnings before the great fall triggered by whales, the 1%, Hedge-funds, and raised Fed points… only to be topped off with a side of Bitcoin Halving. Let the games begin and MAY THE DOGIEST SURVIVE ✊

Duckgrad90

I have constantly followed BTC since 2017. You just buy……there may be dips…..but look at them as buying opportunity. Many have said it is on cycle and will be sell off before halving and I have argued for 6 months that this time MAY be different due to the ETFs and big money getting involved. You can’t time it…..so just buy and continue to buy….and be giddy if we get any major sell off and see as opportunity! Do not trust anyone saying that they know what BTC is going to do and when,….unless they say that long term, BTC only will go up! Best of luck…..and you can share your commodities experience with me as I have only done nat has and was 3 for 3……until this spring and getting my ass handed back to me with is being under $1.70!

I'm not wrong. Quite opposite actually. Bitcoin peaked Nov 2021, so did ETH. As a matter of a fact most coins peaked MAY 2021 and did not reach same highs in Nov. You see, I'm only trying to learn from you guys, but it's very hard. Charts are showing something else. Maybe it's manipulated.

So it is OK to say something will NEVER happen. Yet if someone says it MAY happen you need proof and timelines? Weird.

HopeMrPossum

What bank is this out of curiosity bro? My job is being the guy freezing ppl’s accounts in these sorts of situations, so I have some thoughts. TL;DR: Although they have every right to freeze your account and request evidence, IMO they’re overreaching, assuming guilt, their fraud processes suck and overall sound unprofessional as fuck. They do not seem to give a shit about you or your inconvenience which I fucking HATE. A few things - First your bank can ask these questions, it’s in your Ta&Cs unfortunately. Second, your bank seems pretty shit, hence why I’m interested in who it is. Giving a concrete 3-5 day timeframe with your account guaranteed locked up is… awful. Sounds like their fraud dept has their priorities backwards. They should operate assuming it’s a false positive and looking for evidence to support that, to avoid confirmation bias. When you see fraud all day every day you have to do things to stop yourself seeing fraud everywhere you look. In this case, the circumstantial evidence from your extensive crypto history on the account imo would be enough. Unfortunately they’re assuming you’re guilty so asking for this insanely intrusive evidence. Put it this way - if your account is as you say it is, no issues with an extended crypto transaction history to that destination, any good fraud investigator will be looking to get it unfrozen ASAP. They MAY be being told they have to get evidence - if so, they should be doing everything they can on that call to get the minimum evidence needed to clear concerns. Personally if I saw a colleague still pushing for evidence with a paper train of purchases like you describe, I’d think they’re a fucking moron. Other thing is - they don’t need to freeze your entire account balance, they could just freeze your withdrawal. It’s bizarre they’ve not done this, and if they can’t wtaf is your bank doing. Ultimately though, you’re not going to be in any trouble, they can’t do anything, don’t stress. You’ve a few options, you can completely refuse to cooperate and they’ll unfreeze your account. This could be a few days to a month at most. They’ll probably close it down though. The next is to refuse the wallet addresses/txn IDs, offer something else - like your deposit receipt, sale receipt, etc. This should be more than enough. Proof of purchase/ownership and proof of sale is more than enough evidence in relation to traditional investment assets. It should be here too. Frankly it’s fucked up to ask for your wallet addresses - maybe point out they aren’t allowed your entire account history if it’s at another bank. Yet they’re asking for that here which is fucking unacceptable. Lastly is to give them what they want, as I said above I think that’s pretty messed up though. I’d like to say they’d unfreeze your account then and there… but from the way your bank operates it’s going to be 3-5 days wait regardless.

> They did not really ban gold, just the Gold 1 ounce coins. Dude, the text of Executive Order 6102 **literally** starts with >all persons are required to deliver ON OR BEFORE MAY 1, 1933 all GOLD COIN, GOLD BULLION, AND GOLD CERTIFICATES now owned by them to a Federal Reserve Bank, branch or agency, or to any member bank of the Federal Reserve System. There was a $100 limit, meaning you could keep about 5oz, but it was all gold. Dealers were busted for having cigar boxes of scrap gold.

>My computer (MacBook Pro M1) does not have any malware installed on it...My iPhone was not compromised. This may or may not be true, but truthfully NOBODY can ever say that with any certainty. The best you can ever do is say that it doesn't have any *known* popular malware on it. On the dark web, the average price of an unknown unpatched Apple zero-day exploit is around €2.5 million (give or take based on things like type, severity, and complexity of the 0day vulnerability), which is 0.5 million cheaper than the average zeroday exploit for Android or Windows (cheaper mostly because Apple has a smaller global market share and most hacker groups want larger pools), . That's fewer than 60 BTC right now. So, imagine that some hacking or fraud group wants to rob people. They can buy an untapped exploit for fewer than 60 BTC, then as long as they can steal more than $2.5M worth of financial info (credit cards, identity info, crypto wallet info, etc) from people's computers, phones, or passwords to cloud accounts, or install enough other remote access or hidden keyloggers viewing the camera or screen to see what you type in, etc, and maybe bots, etc...they can make that back. 2.5Mill to buy an unknown zeroday exploit is not much money for large hacking groups that are confident they'll easily earn back more than that. One of the users here tracked the fraudster's Bitcoint Address to having accumulated 219 BTC already, so if they spent 60 or less to get an Apple zero-day exploit, they've already 3.6x'd their investment sitting on a $9Million dollar stash now, not counting any other BTC addresses they might have besides that one. My point is that it MAY be true that the vulnerability didn't come from your Computer or your iPhone, but the truth is that you don't know that for sure. There are TONS of zero day exploits out there for Apple (and Android and Windows) for bad actors to buy up no matter what people want you to believe. This is the main reason why people say to always keep it totally offline. There is no guarantee of safety with anything connected to the internet. Period. Not even with Apple. Not even with malware and virus detectors or firewalls. If you can't afford to lose it, go totally dark offline and leave it that way. If you want to keep checking how much it's worth now, just write down the amount you have and times that by the current price. When it comes to your Bitcoin stash, if you're going to self-custody it, you need to be paranoid and assume your stuff is potentially relatively compromised or could be. Don't save anything in the cloud, no pictures, setup failsafes (maybe various MFA and multi-sig).

I feel like a lot of us have had stories like this how long the last decade...I know I do... because no matter how smart we thought it was at the time or how many people hyped it up early on.. the majority of people do not have disposable income. A lot of us aren't as tech savvy enough to have figured out/trusted sourcing bitcoin one way or another back when it was just coming to fruition and even years after that.. there was no trusted exchange really and $50/$100/$1000 is a lot of money to most to gamble with on something that the odds of it (at that time) really paying off are so bad! The ones who did invest money early on have cashed out and then bought back in probably a dozen times and I will bet not one ever thought that it would be worth this much and may be not be as big as it has gotten... (idk about the last one because there are still people out there who think bitcoin will reach 1mill each...) tbh anything is possible though! PS. I randomly had this thought 5min. That what if in and around 2015 if I actually put a lot of my money into bitcoin like I was thinking of possibly doing where would I be financially now and at what point where would I have sold... and then I hear an alert go off and it's this post.... such a weird coincidence.. MAY BE ITS A SIGN!

GrouchyAd9824

I'd argue MSTR, COIN, mining stocks, etc. may suffer from the ETF because those were institutional investor's means for exposure to BTC through stocks. Now they have the ETF for this and they don't need the proxies. Mining stocks MAY survive because they have income through BTC, but I'm betting that's why those have taken a 50% drop this month.

brianddk

That's my understanding as well. A more interesting question (to me) would be stuff like BTC-LN to BTC and WETH to ETH, where you are simply "unwrapping" an asset instead of "exchanging" it. In the end, I guess if the exchange sends you a 1099 you have to pay taxes on it, and if they don't you MAY have to pay taxes on it. Yay USA!

Few things to consider. 1. Logging into your exchange while overseas may cause problems 2. Re-entering the United States with cash or crypto MAY be seized

"MAY HELP guard against" that's a legal qualifier shoehorned in there because their lawyers knew making a product claim without the "may" (maybe it will, maybe it won't) is asking for the FTC to fine you for making unsubstantiated Product Claims that they'd rather not have to argue in court to prove.

two things to think about and this is applicable to all exchanges... 1. Are you aware that when you send an exchange cash, it is no longer yours, but instead you have a credit with the exchange. If you use that cash to purchase Bitcoin same thing, you have purchased Bitcoin for them with their money. In fact eventhough you go thru the motions of bidding for the Bitcoin and executing an 'exchange' that is all theatre, there is no actual guarantee that the Bitcoin you think you just purchased, actually exists. All you have is a credit, a promise that sometime in the future should you want it, they MAY give you some of THEIR Bitcoin. Let that sink in. 2. If you go to an appliance store, or a hardware store, and by a dishwasher, or some nails after paying for it, do you tell the shop keeper, 'hold this for me, until some time in the future'. No likely not, its your property, you paid for it, you should take delivery immediately! Same goes for Bitcoin, if you don't transfer the Bitcoin to your private non-custodial wallet, then it is not your property, not your Bitcoin.

If the price of a thing in a year is xx% more than it is today - avoiding buying today means you will be out not only gains before today, but also potantial gains after today if you believe that a thing MAY go up then after more investigating YOU decide you believe in the project, or even dont care about the project, but feel its value MAY increase over time what would YOU do. Id start by not worrying about strangers tales on the internet.

Ask yourself this question, if you have 1 millions to invest, will you put everything to bitcoin? Sure, bitcoin MAY 10x your investment, but it can also 1/10 in short time. On the other hand, putting 1 millions into safer stocks almost guarantee that you will not be hungry without working. Hence, at most they will put 1/10 or even 1/100 of their investment to crypto, portion that they don't mind to lose. It is different with us plebs, if we invest $1k to stocks, we only get 7% and it takes 30 years to become something meaningful. While putting to bitcoin can give us $100k in few years. Marks my word, most redditors will also take profit when they see 1 million in their bitcoin. They will start moving it to other safer asset (maybe just maintaining very small amount in crypto)

I agree with you that diverse fields bring loads of experience to individuals and allow them to have a different insight that may allow us to progress as a country better. Canadas PM does not have a diverse background. Born into a rich family, went to school to teach education, taught drama for a high school, got into the Liberal Party, less than a decade later is running a country. There have been corruption and ethics violations identified. The country is running at a massive deficit, individuals are taxed at exorbitant rates, the wealthiest families in Canada (Weston, Roger’s) have brought in record breaking profits. Sometimes I just think that if we had someone in power that had the foresight to understand and see what consequences decisions MAY have, it would be better. Managing and teaching a bunch of 16 year olds for 8 hours a day is extremely different than running a first world nation.

One white paper DOES NOT CONTROL ALL OF CRYPTO. “Satoshi” is a fignent if your imagination. Crypto CANNOT survive without regulation. I do agree that buying early MAY lead to being ahead. But you have to be buying the correct tokens. There are over 25,000 tokens. You DO NOT have some kind of inside Information. You and I are just as blind as the rest of the market. Probably even more. Because there are people who are controlling Btc. They just don’t want you to know about it. Sbf admitted to manipulating the Btc using ftx. You think he’s the first person to do that? JPM banked MtGox in 2013. Then spoke badly about crypto for a decade. Now they have their own platform. NO ONE IS BEING TRUTHFUL. YOUR MONEY IS THEIR GOAL.

In the USA people make upwards of 100k. So sure, I'd there's a really bad emergency, your scenario MAY come into play, but we also have jobs that give us health insurance such.

The value of crypto MAY skyrocket further. And SOME people will get rich from crypto whether it does or not. What you seem to be saying is that you believe the gravy train has largely already left the station. There may be some truth in this, because the percentage gains enjoyed by early adopters are unlikely to be repeated, simply because crypto market cap is about $1tn now and any similarly large percentage gains would take the crypto market cap to infeasibly high levels.

Take a step back and look at the macro, crypto doesn't just "do stuff" in isolation to other markets. In fact when you look at the macro, it is kinda scary because the halvings line up with other macro events that people MAY mistakenly be correlating as "halving drives BTC price" instead of QE, Tbill rates, inflation.

This sentiment MAY have been true in the past. The entire crypto market has been speculative from its beginning until now. But now that the Us government is pushing for clear regulations, the market will mature. There will be tokens whose prices are not dependant on btc. They will be priced based on their usage and utility. I do NOT consider Btc a store of value. People don’t keep their money there while it fluctuates 90% over a year. But IF YOU DO, what are they storing it for? My answer is that they are waiting for utility. And the very first token with real utility is xrp. It has legal clarity in the US. Ot is the basis of Fed Now. It is the basis of the new financial system. Xrp gains will absolutely SMASH Btc and eth.

>These types of post made the rounds the last cycle, this is where you really need to hodl. But are you HODLing because you believe that the fundamentals of the halving will prove the 4 year cycle to be correct? Or HODLing because the pattern shows that it happened the last few times, so should happen again? It absolutely MAY play out the same again, it is just far from guaranteed.

---Q_Q---

It MAY happen when people actually learn to use L2s instead.

It MAY happen one day, but after several EIPs to address the cost to transact on the network.

And...."gasp"... the near 4 year cycle lines up near exactly with Wyckoff's composite man. OMG! The problem is human psychology causes near opposite decision making to profit from it. Most have problems doing the opposite when FUD and/or FOMO kicks in and get rekt. Drop emotions when making financial decisions and you may...MAY, have a chance. The answer is right in front of us. We just have to fight our nature to profit.

MAY BE? BlackRock talking positively about Bitcoin for the first time in years while we are in this bear/crab market is SUPER EXTREMELY bullish, I don't think even WE can conceptualize how important this is for the future of crypto as a whole!

And again, you fucking losers are posting things from 2017. Ethereum is Proof is STAKE. Anything you MAY have thought about it pre merge is not accurate anymore. You can not prove decentralization in the ethereum alliance. All you can PROVE is total number of wallets. But there is a video of Joseph Lubin teaching whales how to disguise their identities; specifically so that they can disguise how much they own, and who owns how many. And yet you profess this to be equal to or better than Ripple? Based on the 0 information you have. You are just another bot. And I know this because they have a cut off date for information that you can access from chatgpt, for you to get this wildly false and outdated information. I am not butthurt. I am simply clearing up the MANY false statements both OP and yourself have chosen to TRY to disseminate. YOU, however, are a BOT. And a spreader of false information.

Luddites_Unite

You are talking about an 8 year old article where the system worked, they discovered malfeasance and removed it and using that to say that it MAY be happening again?

Supply of new coins is fixed, predictable, and inelastic while the demand is elastic. As the demand continues to increase or even stay the same but the supply of new bitcoin continues to slow, we will continue to see upward pressure on the price. As miners capitulate with difficulty adjustments and halvings, they may dedicate that capital to simply buying bitcoin instead of mining. If enough miners do this, the price is likely to increase. Additionally, this is the first halving where the supply of coins on exchanges is decreasing compared to a previous halving. All of these things MAY cause upward pressure on price as circulating supply get bought up. Oh yeah, some big companies named Black Rock, Vanguard, etc might start to buy some bitcoin but who knows if that’s actually true or not.

Anyone else use sushiswap ? I have been swing trading this little side stack I have on there but all night the price has been much lower than CEX's I am tracking on trading view ... I dont have accounts there or I would be doing arbitrage all night haha. Anyways though I noticed that even though the price is lower on sushiswap alot of times when it is much farther ahead like just earlier when the price got up to .65 on MEXC it would say my moons where only worth like .56 or something close to that but then the amount of ETH I was swapping for would be valued much higher and closer to the CEX price of moons, like there was almost $100 difference at one point. I am familiar with slippage and stuff but have never really seen this, then again I really have never used a dex during this much volatility I normally prefer to be on a CEX at times like this. is that just basically showing the range of what I MAY get by showing a different value on each side or is it some mechanism that tries to make up the difference in price to slow down arbitrage ?

For short term it’s hard to tell. It MAY go back and test 16k so your 5k will look like 2.5k for a while but it will rally over the next 2 years to over 70k for sure (nothing is certain) so your 5k should be 10k easy. Long term though it’s never too late to buy in to BTC as it’s disinflationary, it will be worth $1m some day in the bit too distant future. You just got to try and buy at the bottom and sell at the top. Set a sell price in your head and be happy to sell at that.

Buy- Yes How- Over time though exchanges Custody Depends on Nation - Putin probably has the keys himself, they can figure it out. The more democratic the more people MAY be involved Job Change - Move wallets. That in a democracy It may seem more risky to developed nations. what about in the 3rd world or small counties that have weak or rocky defenses? they get invaded the gold is gone... The people that run nation-states are just a group of people. They will figure it out. How do you make more gold bars if your Kenya ? But if you have access to extra power you can mine and scale over time. Bitcoin isnt best for USA, CHINA etc but for the small war torn countries its crutial unless they run off with the money. But multi-sig stops this

I invested $5k into BTC @ $57,719 (MAY2021). It tanked shortly after I invested and has only been back up to that level once (OCT2021) since I invested.

Your coins didn’t bounce back in the bull run between MAY 2021 - JAN 2022 ?

Ethereum will never die as it's constantly being updated and is the defacto safe smart contracts platform. Plus it'll be full of layer 2s using it as a backbone. Bitcoin MAY be in trouble, though not die, as it becomes so unprofitable that most miners quit it, resulting in a potential monopoly.

Pretty much sums it up. When did they win? Did they win when they bombed themselves in the Twin Towers? And who actually still believes the pancake theory and no other adulterants or operations were taken place to make the buildings collapse the way they did on the first or second I cant recall. But one falls extremely fast and yes a plain MAY cause this but it really shouldn’t have. There have been heat tests on the bars for buckling and they can but you need DIRECT CONSTANT Heat. Now I don’t know how long it was it seemed very long to me as a kid going to school normal watching kids tv or young teenage tv then blam another hit. I WATCHED it as a child alone while mum slept dad had gone to work. It was the craziest thing I ever saw. Maybe it was a repeat but I’m pretty sure around 6-7am Australia time AEST or AEDST that I saw it all and it was already on every channel bar maybe one that had news of another nature it was pure kids but even those all went to urgent breaking news and showed the twin towers. It was SO bizarre it was like the world was MADE TO SEE THIS… even me AGEs away in AUSTRALIA. Like every seriously every TV and radio station was playing or talking about it. I will always remember it and I never knew why I always thought omg Hijackers and the word starting with A and ending with A sounds like “a cow died eh?” You know but I ain’t saying it. You do then CIA is into your Max address or wifi/mobile ping address. So no thanks. Anyway idk who did it. I don’t and I don’t know if that A-A is the cause but for some reason they were apart of it for some reason and we know that it is a militant or militia for the Americas using who knows who from over in Afghanistan and the neighbouring areas. Anyway probably biggest conspiracy in modern times.

Isekai_Dreamer

i hate to be the one to tell you, but they already do. people are already getting arrested for thought crimes. for example: Hentai. You can draw a line on a piece of paper and suddenly that is a crime worth 10 years of imprisonment. Because you MIGHT hurt a minor. Sex dolls. They're really heavy so ppl buy them lighter and smaller than regular humans. And BAM, they're now considered child sex dolls. Hell, even if they were, nobody got hurt. And studies show that people who own sex dolls commit WAY LESS crimes than a regular joe shmoe. But nuuu...you're going to prison because some cock sucking politician thinks it MAY harm children. but fucking REAL children, and grooming REAL children is A-OK because you have the lgbbq label.

You might wanna go easy on that hopium, OP. On a serious note, you are factually mistaken on several major points. \- Only 7.7% of all Bitcoin is left to be mined. The rest is already in wallets. Countries will not be competing to mine those scraps while early miners, whales and retail are sitting on 92.3% supply. \- Powerful countries aren't looking for decentralized currencies that will take control away from them. They are looking to strengthen and expand their dominance. \- Countries will not trade in something they don't have full control of. Bitcoin's supply and other core features MAY be altered if the majority of the network agrees on it. It is not impossible. \- Comparing BTC to Gold in terms of ease of use considering other means of payment currently available is a straw man fallacy. If anything, you just made a strong case for an international CBDC that the issuers wil lhave 100% supply and control of

This is a key point. If I have 100K in my bank, I can buy a car worth 99.8K today or tomorrow or next week. If I have 100K in crypto, I can buy a 97K or 98K car today (after fees, gas and whatever other charges are incurred along the way), and I MAY be able to buy a 120K car next week, but I MAY be only able to afford a 88K car next week as well.

Just google "PonziCoin", it will blow your mind. The FAQ section for the coin back then actually stated: >Q: THIS SEEMS TO BE TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE, HOW AM I GETTING SCREWED? A: IT’S A LITERAL PYRAMID SCHEME. YOU ARE FAIRLY LIKELY TO BE ONE OF THE LAST PEOPLE TO BUY PONZICOINS, SO ANOTHER 100 TOKENS PROBABLY WILL NOT BE SOLD AND THE PRICE MAY NOT EVER DOUBLE AGAIN, IN WHICH CASE YOU COULD LOSE UP TO 75% OF YOUR INVESTMENT. THERE’S ALSO A CHANCE THE CONTRACT RUNS OUT OF MONEY OR GETS HACKED IN WHICH CASE YOU COULD LOSE ALL OF YOUR INVESTMENT. ​ The creator made it to prove people never learn, and even had warnings on the website that it is literally a ponzi scheme, and people STILL INVESTED. ​ >Now here’s the major news; People actually invested in the Ponzi scheme. Maybe with the hopes of being the early investors and cashing out before everything collapses. After around 8 hours, PonziCoin had attracted attention and the platform had collected around 250 Ether coins ( valued at more than $250,000). The info is from a 2018 article. Can google "Developer Shuts Down Fake Cryptocurrency PonziCoin after Things Go “Crazy Out of Hand” and the website is techweez. (Don't want to post links in the comments).
