OCD

There's nothing magical about 100 million satoshi's. The Bitcoin code itself has no idea what a whole coin is. It's not measured that way. There aren't decimal points for anything less than a Bitcoin. The code is only measured in satoshi's. Basically you're asking a question like, if I saved $95000, Is there any point in me doing it a second time? Except in this case the value of it is going to keep growing instead of decreasing. But the point was, even though $95,000 isn't a round number, you shouldn't care about an arbitrary number. Why set a perfectly round number to stop at? 1 BTC is not a better stopping point than 101005060 satoshi's. Don't get too OCD fixated on the "1 Bitcoin" amount. It's fairly arbitrary. It's a nice "goal" but don't make it your end game, make it a step of progress to celebrate and recognize. I can honestly say that I don't constantly check exactly how much Bitcoin I have. I DCA, I get notifications about every transaction but I let the plan do it's thing.

Can you really be a crypto expert unless you don't experience the following? Check everything 15 times. Finally Commit and send transaction. Sweat the process and continually check the transaction. Even after if clears you have a linger feeling of stress and dread. Crypto - designed for OCD & anxiety havers.

Fair point, but I've seen entitled and OCD freak out about nonconformist nonstandard parking regardless of the semantics or rationales. It shouldn't matter since it's next to a guard rail, but the "it shouldn't matter argument is a tough case to make to someone who already isn't making decisions based on logical rationales. Though, to be fair, a car like that is always going to stand out regardless. Maybe giving the guy on the other side more room is actually a lower risk than nonconformist parking over the line will draw negative attention.

Are you part of the negotiation team? Why does anyone have to prove or disprove to you how they calculated anything at all? Since the initial offers are for shock value only. To bring people into the table, to make them realize they can not ignore what Trump is trying to renegotiate or offer, they do not have to make any sense or prove any actual validity beyond the willingness to bring together those of value and address the imbalances US is currently concern about. You must be some kind of a micro manager by trade or have OCD or something because you get hang up on things that are TOTALLY irrelevant to the whole thing. Its just like the offer to take over Canada or buy Greenland. Its a comical offer to start a conversation that ends up with better trading partnerships or access to build military basis or those kind of things. The Trump brilliance is brining attention to issues and topics he wants people to talk about. Instead they focus on details that are irrelevant at all and only there for shock and attention value. Good luck with the discussion about the way to calculate things. By the time this is over no one will care at all about the initial Trump statements or absurdity of claims and outlandish offers.

Fair considerations. Consolidation is good for your OCD. You might rationalize it if you consider paying for a large future purchase or trade in BTC and you consolidate UTXOs while fees are extremely low. Then for future trade/purchase will incur a lower fee.

cryptozill_888

No there won't be any for the millionaires that's for sure, because we're disappointed and OCD 😁

Urbs1993

Thanks man but I won’t have any big gains. I’m now officially done. I have wasted 30 years chasing money either sports betting, blackjack, stocks and now this and I just can’t win. My mental well being has taken such a shot. And to add to it I work rotating shifts at my job and begin 5 overnights tonight which I absolutely despise. Sorry I don’t mean to play the violin just this OCD I have doesn’t help.

AdIntelligent114

Kind of OCD :)

simonj69

How did you avoid any dust... or is it an OCD thing?

mrkenparry

Yes. Just leave the dust UTOX alone. But this might more of a test to see if you have an active wallet and moving your coin is going to raise attention. You don’t have to do anything with it rn (other than the OCD)

redeembtc

Yes that's what I thought. And yes the balance of the address is the reason for me being targeted. My nice round balance now isn't so nice - me and my OCD. I'll consolidate all the UTOXs other than this tainted UTOX - is this what you meant by ambadoning the dust?

uncapchad

People are buying, companies are buying, frikkin Saylot buys every week. I think you might mean people aren't buying fast enough for your OCD or whatever it is that plagues you

TehGutch

Would never happen. All the super rich OCD hoarders would buy up all the bitcoin and sit on it like smaug and screwg mcduck. The rest of the world, having no access to it or means to purchase would simply move on.

VladStopStalking

The maximum supply of Bitcoin is 20,999,971.02187096... Tell me again how it's made for people with OCD

Nadiveamerican000

What I said was original, now here’s more: the shorter the length of fingernails and good hygiene means less particles trapped under , my fingernails are impossibly short, so there’s that. I have OCD to the extreme, there’s that too. 1.5 million particles shoot up during a toilet flush, and if you aren’t wearing a mask after hearing that? It is willingly. Fingernails my length wouldn’t trap anything near that volume of fecal matter.

Blooberino

I'd be willing to have them keep it. I'm very OCD and it's killing me.

markjenkinswpg

I wasn't able to figure out how many satoshi (1/100000000 of a bitcoin) are available in puzzle 67 from looking at the link above. Perhaps share the public address? At a certain point I wondered if you were talking about 1000 satoshi or something which is worth about 1 USD. It's clear from the link the main challenge was swept up a good while ago. Can't tell re 67. This is very relevant to your question as there is a cost to transacting on the bitcoin blockchain. Transactions incentivize miners to include them in blocks by having the sum of all inputs be less than the sum of outputs. Bitcoin miners keep the difference as transaction fees. If you're seeing a small a small amount of BTC, it may not be enough to cover the transactional cost of sweeping it. Most likely explanation of what's going on. A given address may also have received many small dust amounts of bitcoin. There is a cost to moving each of those. It's not uncommon for an address that gets attention like a puzzle channel to have lots of useless dust levels of bitcoin thrown at it. The worst mistake one could make would be sending your own bitcoin to the same address. Guaranteed loss of funds as it is guaranteed others have the same key. Doesn't help sweep the dust either. If someone wanted to lose money sweeping dust just for the hell of it, there may a technical way to form a transaction sweeping dust that is combined with movement of funds from one address of your own exclusive keys (not challenge keys) to another address of your own exclusive keys. In this way you can create a difference between inputs and outputs and form a transaction with a high enough fee. You need to really know what you're doing to do that safely. Getting advice from the internet on how to do that is a good path way to lose funds. Losing money to sweep dust from a highly published address would be a OCD fool's errand, as more dust not worth sweeping is likely to arrive if scammers are using a highly published address to trick folks into making the mistake of using unsafe approach to sweeping.

hamxah_red

Get to 0.5 so no one's OCD is ever triggered. :s But, seriously, that's still a good investment right there. 💯

VladStopStalking

It's not the algorithm for mining BTC, it's the equation for the total supply of BTC. The result is 20,999,999.99755528. You can tell Satoshi didn't have OCD.

shameeror1

OCD like me

newmes

So you land on this round number and then you can never spend any? BTC is money. You are supposed to use it/spend it eventually. You're just collecting BTC with some OCD round-number? lmao

New_Cod6544

OCD

ledav3

So what you need to do is have more and send that OCD amount. What stops you from doing this?

cd80808080

You my friend have some OCD going on lol

Objective_Digit

I think it only matters if you have OCD. Many will have sold before or after that.

ShittingOutPosts

My OCD agrees.

AdministrativeIce696

You're onto something. Satoshi used double space for a long period of time before BTC. Nothing to do with typewriter. Habit from OCD like condition. Didn't like typing. Double space was frustration. Not English. Speaks British English like many on the commonwealth. PS1. Because I might know who they are. PS2. Satoshi is not who expect. Younger but no longer considered young. Has university aged children. There are other people alive who know who they are, something really bad happened to them due to their terrible parents. Did CW ever have black eyes from a random beating around 2008/9?? Why did that happen? What did CW do?

redeembtc

Finally got a dusting attack on my Bitcoin wallet. Someone deposited 330 sats. Spooked me not gonna lie. OCD in me though is annoyed as I had a nice "round number".

therealvincewatson

I can beat that. I bought 0.00513 of a bitcoin yesterday. Now I’ve finally a round number. My OCD was not coping well with that 🤪

iknowyounot88

You sound like you may have a gambling problem, or an OCD problem. Try shifting your mentality to understand that bitcoin is a long term investment, don't be so attenative. Do you stare at your 401k and stocks constantly?

Evening-Abies-4679

FUD is hard. It's almost reglious i have faith that Bitcoin is the answer despite the dips lol that said I OCD check the price all the time haha

505hy

You don't need to day trade to look at charts but maybe it's just my OCD that I like everything Imin ine single view

Friendly-Radish-3814

It doesn’t have to be all or nothing. As a person who also has anxiety, albeit not from OCD, I can confidently tell you that it’s going to affect you if the price drops and you don’t sell just as much as it’s going to affect you if you sell and it sky rockets. Maybe only consider playing with half your stack? It’ll limit your options in terms of starting a new life, but it’ll help you mentally handle any price movements after you decide to sell.

sentientchimpman

You might have OCD.

stol_ansikte

I have OCD so I wouldn’t want one in circulates dollar bills either

Loafmanuk

Please deposit 1 more sat to your account, it's really playing with my OCD!

Da_Notorious_HAM

Yeah I agree. A fixed price to fiat doesn’t incentivize burning. But my OCD wants 25 per month 😂

RedWhiteBluePill

Clear as day my friend. I have the same OCD problem... lol... I only like to buy in SHARES, not dollars... same for Crypto. I like to buy in Crypto numbers and keep them even lol... it's dumb I'm sure, dont care though. #CARA

Price has started with 66,6XX all morning. My OCD is getting the best of me. 😅 😈

Argh... why am I so bothered your phone has only 23% battery?! 😫😂 Guess my OCD is playing up....

balaena7

true, but with my OCD it takes hours to check it lol

bobbyv137

Maybe it’s because I’m a coder and have OCD and pedantic, but please don’t throw around phrases such as “biggest bull run ever” as that mathematically can’t happen again in a single bull run. The biggest ever are in the past.

JTD_333

I too am old school. And OCD. Lol hopefully that will help with keeping passphrases organized.

uncapchad

Accumulationphobia would mean you fear accumulating anything. The opposite would be Hoarding Disorder or it's medical term, Plyushkin's disorder. Or a form of OCD. Keep stacking and stay sane!

Low-Client-375

I also like rounded numbers. Probably bugging his OCD he had 214 278

Ok-Hat-1720

Yes, I used this same strategy for about two years thinking a was slick as hell... untill my OCD led me down a certain rabbit hole and I ended up creating a spreadsheet of every last movement/transaction I had ever made and realized I wasnt as smart as I thought.

dk349303

I edited “encoded” to “hashed”.  It shouldn’t alter or change the content of the post but hopefully satisfies this communities OCD. Honestly surprised how nitpicky folks here are. I work in a tech shop and we refer to object keys as encrypted, compressed, encoded, transposed, translated etc … all the time. I get that it might not be perfectly precise but it’s never created this much confusion and folks usually just understand that hashing changes one value to another …

makeshiftballer

I still keep my strike around just because I've got a $5000 daily BTC withdrawal limit there and cash app is only 2k. Probably not an issue for most but I'm OCD and my UTXOs are 2.5 million sats and I wanna keep them that way. Which is like $1700 usd right now.  But if I have too. Free withdrawal to strike and free withdrawal from strike to my cold wallet.

Slajso

I had a bad case of OCD as a kid, where I had to "wave my hand" over the doorknob three times before I would actually use it. However, I noticed I was doing it about a couple of weeks later and willed it out of my mind, so to speak. I recommend you do the same :D GL!

2008Phils

Sounds like OP had some kind of OCD, no?

tscottn

my OCD wouldn't let me stop until 2BTC. Just because i like whole numbers not half. But once 2BTC is acquired, sit back and relax knowing full well that eventually your net worth will surpass your wildest expectations.

Parrham

I own .001162 of USDC and it is killing my OCD, I never had this issue with LTC, I’m never gonna give up until I somehow get to complete 0

uncapchad

So this is the thing with 8 decimals. It's highly unlikely you'll get it to an exact 0. Put your OCD away on this one because there's no easy answer. There's nothing you can buy for a fraction of a penny, but those fractions of pennies still belong to you. If your wallet app has the option, just set it to 2 decimal places

where-ya-headed

I know it’s not convenient and can be a pain, and mess with one’s OCD, but have you considered making a new email?

Bullet_Tooth_

You will be a “whole-coiner” - How about that? I get it, it’s kind of an OCD thing for me. It’s one of the best financial goals to have right now. You’ll get there

ledav3

hurt my OCD real bad with that one🫥

DPSK7878

Sorry I think he is like having an OCD or obsession with BTC only. An irony is that he has been DCA out at much lower BTC prices when the risk metric is above 0.6. He is not timing the market here for his crypto portfolio. On the other hand, he is telling his viewers to time the altcoins market with his overly obsession that BTC.d is going to keep going up forever. Ouch some of his viewers had missed LINK, SOL and ETH at the bottom prices. I think the proper way is to adopt a mix portfolio of BTC, ETH and some alts. DCA in and out are highly recommended.

uex

exactly. I like that with a 1,000,000 bits you have a whole coin. I really dislike the fact that satoshis don't scale up to bitcoin in thousands. Not sure why it was decided to be 10\^-8 and not 10\^-9. So having sats as cents feels right to me. This way you can scale up better: there will be a total of 21 Trillion Bits in the system, as opposed to 2,100 Trillion satoshis... just sharing my OCD I guess

Zealousideal_Bag_325

Yes=blue=good for every line except mandatory fees in which case no=blue=good. They are good/bad for all lines, but that is the only one where no=good. You do have a point tho from an OCD perspective, they could have stated the criterion differently, like "No Mandatory Fees" then it would follow the same pattern as all the others.

YourFixJustRuinsIt

I get it and don’t at the same time. I have a few whole coins but they end with .4 My OCD brain really wants to at least have.5 but it’s just an arbitrary number. I know I t’s stupid to care but I do sometimes.

FelixDiamante

Being that close to 1.5 is painful to my OCD

BrickSufficient6938

Doing something like that my self for few days now. Project that's mooning (not WiFi but same category) paying for one I believe long term (not Matic but something v close) Just skimming it of the top 5-10% every day or three. Rounded up my Matic bag too, not by much just to satisfy my OCD xD

doge-to-1dollar

Yes, I look at the 5 years ago screen on Robinhood when I first started out in 2020, I was making a killing, started with $300, made it to $17k at it's peak(was going to sell at $20k because I'm OCD - it's got to be even) and watched it go down day after day thinking its about to go back up, I had so much hope, but then it turned back into $300. I cryed and my girlfriend now hates me talking about stocks and crypto, she thinks it's a waist of money and time. I then clawed my way back up to $2,700(today) and now I take SOME profits, I am trying to reach that lambo status the "buy low sell slightly higher way."

will lead to OCD. Be easy on yourself

My OCD wouldn’t let me read anything this long. Long Term BTC investor here.

blind_disparity

I mean, I get what you're saying, but it's a technical term that means something specific. Mathematical, cannot be faked or mistaken proof of work. Sorry, nerd OCD.

DingDongWhoDis

Gross oversimplification. There's waaaay more to it. Ignore it as you wish. And I'm not here to argue about it or convince you or anyone else, btw. The info they're sharing on Twitter speaks for itself. It's a matter of actually looking at it and absorbing the facts. Or not. You do you. The presentation and frequency of posts is downright OCD-level (a little off putting), but it's hard to deny a lot of it is very well supported (with irrefutable onchain data), objectively speaking.

BlissKeyper

I kno a guy that offer his divorce, he took his part of th house sale, smash bought BTC & moved to El Salvador.. He doesn’t OCD over th price of BTC.. he’s living his life.

BlissKeyper

I’v been DCAing various amounts.. I hav no clue anymore how much I’v actually put into BTC.. I envy th folks like MSaylor that just do massive smash buys.. cuz they easily kno how much they’r up or down. & I envy th peeps that come into some money & just do a lump smash buy & move on w/ their lives knowing they got BTC. This OCD’ing over the price volatility is exhausting.

BlissKeyper

Tell me abt it.. same here. I buy from Strike & put it into my Ledger. & I just started buying from Swan literally cuz I don’t wanna hav to OCD.. they also hav a multi-dig option that I haven’t looked into yet. I kind of like not having it all just in one place. & I’m actually liking dealing w/ just BTC companies like Swan & Strike, cuz of their ethos in BTC education.

Churn

Thank you for asking!! My OCD would not let me process this post until I knew. Stop using acronyms people!!!

Fool_on_da_hill

Oh I see. OCD

I too get OCD when my BTC holdings are not a round number. 190,000 looks nice.

My OCD finds it super annoying that the thumb is cut off in this image :D

Ydn_RealWaldo

By decentralized I don’t mean DEX markets. I’ve been mostly OTC collecting payment for jewellery in crypto. I very rarely exchange either so my stuff just been sitting there since my first transaction like 4-5 years ago. The term arbitrage for me wouldn’t have meant anything if my OCD wasn’t driving me nuts and you guys explaining it to me.

CryptoDad2100

From one OCD to another, learn to live with it. Don't even get me started on all the scam coins that are in your wallet(s) that I bet you don't even know about, just because you're eligible for some drops. That's a crypto feature, not a bug - anyone can send you anything and you can't stop it lol.

Ok-Switch-1167

I've never used the lightning network, so im confused. To be honest, I don't think ive ever ever been given the option to use the lightning network. I DCA all the time and recently stopped because the fees just basically took too much from me moving it to my hardware wallet. How do you even move bitcoin between networks? If i did move it to the lightning network, can i then move it back to my normal wallet? Or would that cost more again? I want all my bitcoin eventually in 1 single wallet because OCD purposes.

HelpfulJones

If your records are somewhat of a birds nest of transactions and you want to do a one time "refresh" to establish a new baseline and simplify things with a mind to neater record-keeping going forward, this makes sense to me (and my OCD). I'm thinking about the govt's desire to establish some sort of crypto specific regulatory/tax framework and doing this before that gets ironed out and enacted is probably not a bad idea. But other than a one time "cleanup" transaction to establish a new baseline, I don't see the need to keep doing it every year -- presumes whatever regulatory/tax framework they come up with won't actually make the exercise beneficial for you to do every year.

NetFormer1697

Yes I get what you mean. Frankly, I may have mild OCD, (idk for certain though because it’s not diagnosed), but I find so much pleasure in checking up on my net worth as numbers on the screen every few hours. Coupled this with my obsession in optimization, as a math guy, I find myself doing calculations on various scenarios into the future of my NW. And now that I have my own stream of income and all the material things I need to live by, my number one “fun” spending is exactly that: investments, because I truly find joy in watching my net worth and seeing my calculated predictions to work. The other thing I value is experience. Other than investments, which help me buy time, I spend the rest of my fun money for traveling (I already have a couple planned 😉) because I understand this age is a great time to experience the world, but there’s only so many vacations allocated to me from my employer… so the rest goes to investments haha.

SnooRegrets9492

what is OCD?

greenmoonwine

That’s not what OCD is, not even a little bit.

Dramatic_Studio5541

Don’t stop at 1BTC for the sake of OCD, keep converting spare cash that you’re sure you won’t need in the short term, using DCA. There is no better asset to hold your wealth in, but of course you don’t want to be in a position where you’re forced to sell at current market price (which could be in a dip at the time) due to lack of liquidity. I intend only to part with my BTC if it’s to buy something with it

Mountain-Ad326

get to 1 dude. The OCD is a killer if you dont. Well done and welcome to the wholecoiner club.

Due-Manufacturer-492

I probably have OCD or something, but it bothers me that they don't know about Bitcoin. I know it's not my place to teach them or to tell them what's right or wrong, it just annoys me when people are so close-minded that they're not even willing to hear me out. People need to be willing to discuss or debate things a little more in my opinion. Why not just listen and learn for once?

dozebull

He can get a different type of OCD like washing hands or something.
