Vast Bank- A Tulsa, OK bank that lets people manage their traditional bank accounts and cryptocurrency side by side. Pretty cool. Sounds like adoption to me.

OK let's start 1) xyz domain means they are poor and couldn't afford a dotcom 2) Anonymous team, always a great sign 3) docs pages go 404 on main page 4) can't find tokenomics This is a yikes from m e dawg.
>Monero is great for true privacy. But that doesn’t mean it’s a great investment. Literally the Monero investment hypothesis but OK
Real world? OK guy! Where does your alternative reality exist? Give me a specific "real world" example where bitcoin isn't a commodity?
We are at disbelief rn as entire crypto space seems to be anti eth. OK i get it. But cycles :)
That's a specious argument, since "BTC = 'digital gold'" is an idiotic argument. Or more to the point, not everyone accepts that dumb saying. It doesn't matter what I, internet rando, think. But either way, sure - I'm more or less OK with Bitcoin being regulated as a speculative asset, in the way in this case that gold is used (among other uses) as a speculative asset, and the regulations to that effect.
I bought at $68K. I thought I missed the boat but I said what the heck. I am going to into "elevated risk level." I think I did OK. It's fell back to $74K but is now $95k? Who knows? I think I did the right thing. Hope history proves me right.
OK GPT, I won't get blinded by hype and just stack more BTC.
First congratulations on doing the research and knowing what your goal is and working to achieve it. Comparison is the thief of joy. Just focus on what you can do to better your situation and your goals will allow you to do this. In the fiat world and bitcoin world, everyone compares themselves to others. The problem is that we all have our own unique life and timeline and can't control when we were born. Only the year we decided to get into bitcoin can we decide and we can take comfort there will always be more generations. You may feel late but to the next generation you will have what appears to them to be infinitely more than what they can ever achieve. Having been in for a while, I still feel like I don't have enough(compared to the early day adopters 2010-2015) that said, I probably have more than I would need I just don't fully realize it yet. You will be in the same position in the future and that's OK. Just try to be happy and enjoy :)
>It would also be the opinion of anyone who handles money professionally. My point is that there are objective facts about BTC that can't be disputed. Some people say things as if they are facts yet are their own opinions. > Putting your life's savings 100% in Bitcoin because "it seems to always go up eventually" is wildly irresponsible. Yes, if that is the sole metric, it could definitely be irresponsible. > But like you said, some people are ok with the risk (or in other words, they are OK with losing their life savings). In your opine you left out a bias as well. That is, on a long-term basis, they are okay with accepting the gains of the best performing asset on the planet since inception.

Bitcoin network fees are pretty low right now. Are you sure this was a bitcoin transaction fee and not some kind of exchange fee? Are you able to post the TXID to check? In any case, the ELI5 analogy I usually use is something like this: OK, so you want to buy a new scooter. It costs £100.00 so you decide to save up. You decide to create a "swear jar". Every time someone in your family uses a bad word, you wave the swear jar in front of them and they have to put in a penny. Pretty soon the jar is full of pennies, so you just empty it into a rucksack and keep using the jar. Your family is pretty foul-mouthed, and soon your rucksack is full too, and you reach the magical £100.00. You drag your rucksack to the store and ask to buy the scooter. The man in the store takes a look at your rucksack full of pennies and tells you to fuck off. You wave the swear jar at him, but he seems unamused. An UTXO is an "unspent transaction output". It's basically the individual bitcoin amounts controlled by your wallet, much like individual banknotes/coins in fiat currency. More UTXOs = higher fees to deal with. "Consolidating" your UTXOs is like taking your pennies to the bank every so often (when fees are low) so you can get nice crisp notes instead.
Scammer: Hello my name is Sam how are you I am from your bank and there is a problem with your account and we need you to enter some information that would help us take all your money. Anteater: OK whatever you want Scammer: sweet! Is that about right? Except for the bank part? Who the heck doesn't check up on this stuff.
Friends don't always agree on everything. That's OK. They don't need to, unless it's a showstopper issue. Friends come and go. Good friends stick around dispute their differing opinions. Does this matter to either of you?
“”OK””you.good;have-a-wonderful.life.👍😉
It’s not confusing, it’s misleading. You thinking this is OK means you don’t understand what graphs are for.
OK OK. But don’t go asking for 105 immediately after.
Planning to work until you die? It means you plan to swap Time for Money then Money for stuff. You could swap Time for Money, then invest and multiply your Time. Time will allow inflation to increase the purchasing power of your investments, then spend. Nothing is worth buying other than your future time. Boost your savings rate higher than the world taught you. You’re doing with your time, what your environment and your education told you to do. Other people wake up and do different actions. We all have the same amount of time and have the ability to look for new actions. It’s possible you didn’t choose to do work until you die. The world told you to. If you did choose to work until you die, that’s OK too.
Market feels very toppy right now. Like any second everything is gonna come crashing down. Was an OK day for alts but it's not really holding up that strong.
OK everthing becomes BTC, you'll become richer then Bezos, and everone on earth who hodl'ed is able to buy up everything 4x over. All housing and industry magically disappears and is converted into ever increasing BTC. You will be able to buy houses for pennies on the dollar. Value is exchanged, not converted. You lack basic economic insights and are pretty delusional about bitcoins future. It will not set you free from capitalism. Because believe it or not: capitalism existed before fiat. But hey... free markets leave no bad decisions unpunished. So... good luck... paying taxes on those BTC. Or... did you think that would go away along with fiat? Investing is Investing. That will create more value regardless if it's BTC or USD. But 1 BTC will always be just that: 1 BTC. Investing will make in your perfect world 1.1 BTC of it. Don't forget that.
I just duck-duck-do'ed for it, and can't quickly find any concrete credible report link to. Then again, search engines have gone to shit. It used to be widely reported on by "mainstream" crypto media - back in the days of FTX and other shady exchanges, even Binance, who were notorious for holding tiny fractional reserves of their user's total reported BTC balances. So I'm not sure why it's not showing up in results now, just a few years later. Your BTC balance on Coinbase, Kraken, or Binance, for example, is just a database entry. When someone sends you BTC to a "receive" address Coinbase gives you, you don't have - and can't get - the private keys to that wallet - hence the (annoyingly overused but true) saying, "not your keys, not your coins". You can of course send those coins to your own wallet that you have full control over - and at that moment, hopefully Coinbase can rummage up some real BTC to do so. (To my knowledge they've never yet been unable to - but I'd wager there are funny internal stories of them running nearly dry in their early days, and scrambling like mad to cover runs. I have a close friend who used to work at a high level there but it would be in poor taste to ask. I'm hoping/assuming she'll volunteer stories someday.) Exchanges nowadays CLAIM to be fully backed, but they aren't legally required to be like banks, they have no real incentive to be other than not being able to cover runs, and there is absolutely no way to verify for sure. Audits, published wallet addresses, merkle trees, balance sheets - all ultimately meaningless as a way of validating that they have actual liquid BTC as free assets that can be immediately redeemed if all users cashed in at once. If you go to ChatGPT now and ask it to "list the BTC held by exchanges, wallets, ETFs, etc.", my session at least produced a table that added up to 24.7 million BTC, out of a max hardcoded cap of 21 million BTC. All of that to say, I feel comfortable leaving maybe 10% of my coins on Kraken + Coinbase at any given time, available for trading, or just out of laziness. But I start getting nervous when it approaches ~10%, and move them to my wallet. Both exchanges are FDC insured to up to $100k, so as long as you trade in USD (not sure about USDC which Coinbase at least treats as "cash" equivalent to USD), you're probably OK, and I don't worry about too much. Though, the "full faith and credit of the United States of America" these days... eek.
OK, good, we are now clear on where you stand. Your contribution was not about the discussion, it was about me. So you are just a waste of my time.
No. I believe those holding Bitcoin will be OK. Crypto as a whole would do awful in this scenario. So yes I think in a true economic collapse those holding Bitcoin or other hard assets like Gold will be better off than those that are not. Bitcoin is preferable as you can literally buy goods and services with it.
Prob not. If you were not brave enough last year or had the invite, your not made for this. Now is at highs and a bad place to start. U missed boat!!!! If u want to dca of robinhood and get foot in door and not get upset when it comes down.... OK sure. If you sold 1. Panic 2. Time market 3. Under 35 Your an idiot. This video is dedicated to you... https://youtube.com/shorts/2Of6-ThsRzk?si=le89cW2hmO3BrgpS
Your numbers are wildly off, but OK. World's assets are also valued at market rates, even though obviously no one can sell trillions of apple shares and each share maintaining its price it had before the sell off. BTC market cap is not an account balance. Money never goes "into" bitcoin. It does not go "into" the market cap, nor does it stay there. It goes **from buyer to seller.** And seller then spends it on bubble gum or Lambos. Cap is a calculated metric, using price and total BTC mined. The price is just the point where last trade happened. It could go up or down, having a huge effect on the total cap, but without any comparable effect on volume of actual money exchanging hands. $1 price difference is a $20 million change in market cap. And it can happen from a trade worth $20 bucks. $20 million worth of "wealth" did not get created or destroyed during such an exchange.
OK, I see. I meant 2021 though, that's when I looked again. Just never going to not be pissed off with myself I didn't just leave that 1k I had in btc back in 2016. Guess it's the difference between being an early investor and late investor, early investors make the gains.
OK, that’s what I thought was the behavior.
Oh OK, I guess that's that then. Job done. See you guys.
OK, but still, if you DCA'd or exited then re-entered you make more with alts still.
Stocks are valued at a premium (or they were) based on historical metrics. Just when you think stocks never go down is when a bull market kicks you in the dick. Same incidentally for housing-housing isn’t supposed to increase 10% per year if wages aren’t increasing 10% per year. With wages stagnant and mortgage rates about 7%-affordability is too low, and prices need to come down…when it does, it unwinds a lot of paper wealth and things are messy. Could be coming next year or in 5 years, maybe lower rates will help, but housing is a rip off right now and people are still stupidly piling in assuming 10% annual gains are automatic. They are until the 40% rug pull which is looming. I hate to sound like an old curmudgeon, but consider building a diversified bulletproof portfolio that also includes some precious metals (not more than 10%) and emergency cash as the base layer, then bonds for risk free return (4+% on 1 month bills right now), then BTC and then stocks. I don’t love gold because I watched it do nothing for over 10 years (2011-2023), but I don’t hate having it lately as it’s been skyrocketing. Over longer periods, it just offsets inflation but has no yield. It’s private though, and when I croak, it should pass to my heirs without the involvement of the courts or be taxed by gov. It has no counterparty risk and it always stays with me, but it’s lazy so it’s a love/hate relationship. I DCA BTC daily so don’t care about short term price fluctuations. BTC to me is long term savings-I don’t plan to access it until the 2030’s. I also like bonds at 4% because there is virtually no risk of loss and the 4% is better than just stacking cash. Having been through crypto winter, I love BTC, but have some mistrust from prior experience. Don’t keep all your eggs in one basket-on bad days for stocks, usually one of my other assets is doing OK, which is comforting. Good luck!
I learned my lesson after the ATH of $1000. It fell to like $200 and I said "Oh well I missed the train." next cycle it was up to $4000 and continuing to rise, I said "OK I'm not missing out again."
Why not daily DCA? OK what time of the day? How about hourly DCA then?
OK, I guess you’re the gold expert .999 isn’t pure My mistake…. 🙄
What? Marijuana is legal, smoking is bad for you? Most of the US President's top advisors have been to prison? What? Wait. It says the President is a convicted felon! The President of the United States??? And he said some Nazis are OK? Is that what they mean when they keep saying top 1%? Percentage of the US population that has been to prisons that are owned by private companies? Are they like spas or something? You have to pay to go there?
OK, then. That checks. I guess I'm here. Anything else weird?
Well, 85k is OK, but would prefer it at $666k! Will keep praying...
OK how to study Bitcoin from your prospective?
Lol OK. You can do the same with any other crypto project too. Nothing special about anything you just said, I can create a bitcoin fork and it's the same as the original but you cannot fork or copy physical commodities. When Btc first started it was to decentralized but we've come full circle and you need to get everything funneled thru the gov now so what's the point of holding crypto now that it's all getting centralized anyway?
Not a dumb question at all. I am just talking about execution. And I should have been more clear. On top of the spread you have a variance in list and ask. Hold on.... XRP is listed at 2.076. If I actually try to buy the price is 2.091. So I need to react not to the list but I have to click to buy so I can see the ask. Let's say I buy 1 XRP. I have now paid 2.091 for a coin listed at 2.076. OK let's sell that coin and lose our 1.5 cents in the process. Right? Wrong. Listed at 2.076 the actual sell price is 206.6. So I lost 2.5 cents rather than 1.5. Yoy can avoid all that by using limit orders but that certainly slows down your churn and it is entirely possible you never complete the transaction
The irony of being OK with being fed AI slop while calling others NPCs 😂
\> crypto promotions OK shitcoiner.
Right OK Mr wallstbets. The best thing you could do is to study bitcoin and report back.
I would like it to go up, but if it just goes horizontal for the next ten years whilst fiat declines 2%+ each year, that'll be OK too.
What do you mean by first vote ever though. Bitcoin reserve legislation is voted on and dead in OK, MT, ND, PA, SD, and WY. I’m not anti Bitcoin, just wondered what you meant by first vote ever. You mean first vote ever for OK? In that case yes. Shit, people need to learn and stop voting with fear about things they don’t understand yet. But whatever
OK, buy when STH SOPR is < 1. This indicates STH's selling at a loss.
OK, I will bite How did you arrive at your assumptions? Why are you using the halving peak/floor as indicators? Prediction models flow from assumptions and inputs. You need a reasonable basis for the assumptions that aren't just "that is what happened before" buy why did it happen before and why should the trend continue? "ChatGPT has grown 15% month over month and will continue to do so for the next 10 years because the adoption level of AI worldwide is only 1% and the biggest growth has been from younger people who use it for school and continue to use it in the workforce so ChatGPT adoption will naturally increase as the population turnover reaching a peak in 20-25 years." Without knowing your assumptions and the justifications, any prediction is worthless.
The 109k sellers are gone, another bounce of the 350 MA like last summer, positive catalysts and feedback loops forming. 1) 26 States have legislation moving on strategic reserves 5-10% investment. 3.7T in non federal budgets total. AZ, NH, OK, TX being closest to final approval. 2) Interest rate cuts are in the forecast. Cheap money coming 3) International laws and Federal laws on the tail end. Strategic reserves, ability to utilize in purchases-commerce. 4) The cycle, something, something
EXACTLY. It genuinely upset me to see the majority of the crypto community blindly supporting Trump before the election. Fascism was OK if you thought your bags would get bigger? 🤮
OK, and more practical: separate cold wallets for each of them.
I don't think **you** understand... The app installed on the Ledger, supplied by Ledger is OK! Still, I would not install some random app on my ledger and enter my seed on to it, one thing doesn't exclude the other haha
OK ... buy MSTR. ... no fees on that.
OK, let's be real here. It honestly depends on two factors How much BTC are we talking about, and How long do you plan to hold it for? If it's a small amount of BTC where a cost of a hardware wallet is like 10% or more of the value of your stack, then I say keep it in the exchange .... FOR NOW. Likewise, if you are planning to sell later this year for profit, keep it on the exchange and save yourself the network frees. A lot of people will buy small amounts of BTC and be constantly moving it to cold storage which is fine but honestly I think the risk to you isn't that high UNTILL your holdings on an exchange start getting over $10,000. My advice would be to wait until you have at least $5,000 worth of BTC on an exchange before you bother moving it off the exchange.
> > The price of Bitcoin is 400x the price it was on this day 10 years ago. 2015. Not ancient history. > Lol OK mate keep leaving in your reality. Bitcoin price April 14 2015 = $220. Bitcoin price April 14 2025 = $85,000. 85,000 / 220 = 386x Gawd you people are dumb.
>The price of Bitcoin is 400x the price it was on this day 10 years ago. 2015. Not ancient history. Lol OK mate keep leaving in your reality.
Ahh OK. I stand corrected. Thanks for clarifying 🙏
Song long as price is above cost of production and machinery, you're OK, but still uncertain. You don't know if you will be that way for the life of the ASIC. That being said, you gain a greater understanding of and support the network which is excellent.
OK. Says the guy who actually thinks he knows what is going to happen. Bot
Pfff OK buddy 😂. I'm sorry for bringing the stink face.
There's not a single part of what I posted that would ever have my private keys online. I'm pretty clear on that. So, that being the case, where is the security hole in a Bitcoin Core wallet.dat file? I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that you didn't read too carefully what I wrote initially because your entire reply goes off in another direction. What old-school database? A wallet.dat comes from Bitcoin Core. You know, the actual initial original thing from which all the rest of this spawned? OK, different question though it's the same answer. I have a Word document that's AES-256 encrypted. Do you have concerns e-mailing that file around? And if you do, I'd suggest that perhaps it's you that needs to educate themselves on not just Bitcoin, but what powers it.
First of all, as a Canadian, you probably don’t realize that we already have far less of a social safety net than you guys do. Second, notice that you make a lot of statements that aren’t supported by data, which is a common characteristic of conservatives in general. You say that there are leaches abusing the system? Ok, quantify that for me so I can understand if it is a real problem. Countries have been tariffing the “shit” out of the United States for years? OK, show me what you are talking about since the last data I saw from JP Morgan said the global tariff rate was down to about 2% on average just prior to April 2nd.
Agree on the bolts and washers. Hard disagree on the Tangem. Not because it's not BTC-only, but because it's just poorly designed and exposes you to a lot unneeded risk. If you're OK with Tangem then you might as well be OK with a hot wallet on your phone. The latter probably being safer. If you want something you can stash in your wallet, just derive a singlesig wallet from a mnemonic and a passphrase, then write the mnemonic on a piece of paper, memorize the passphrase, and put the piece of paper in your physical wallet. Same function, but you don't expose yourself to having your keys leaked by Tangem's poorly audited, proprietary code.
If 2 weeks ago someone had told me we'd be around $72K today, given everything that happened, I'd think OK that would be nice, but that's maybe a little too hopeful. But if they had told me we'd be around $82k today, I'd think they were either high on hopium or had to be talking in Canadian dollars.
OK I’ll play around. What happens next!!!!!????
It's not. Those bitcoin reserve companies generally are doing it to try to influence their own price so that they can issue more stock or debt to buy more. The real believers are the entities that are buying up bitcoin quietly because if you really believe, why would you want others to compete with you for the same commodity? Bitcoin, while having all the traits of being the best store of value, will be cyclical due to these entities and other speculators. And that's OK! We can just keep stacking and preserve our wealth organically. It's a marathon not a sprint...
I am surprised no one mentioned Ben Cowen. He seems OK.
The most prudent and economic policy... Like 2016 was the most important election of my lifetime? Like covid was the most serious threat to humanity in my lifetime? Like the 2020 election was the most crucial election of my lifetime, but for real this time? Like 2024 was OK, seriously, you really mean it the most important election of my lifetime. Fuck off with that. The line is so fucking tired that even if true you have gone fully into boy who cried wolf territory. What's funny is, I have never voted for the guy. Never would. And I do not support the tariff nonsense. But the hyperbolic theater kid screeching actually had me rooting for him just so you jack holes have to find another topic that hopefully does not involve subs to which I subscribe.
haha, I think it will be OK. It's March figures they will be reporting on. Don't think it would have changed enough to warrant any hikes/cuts.
OK, now explain who was behind the massive volume spoke 20 minutes before his announcement. THAT'S your insider trading.
OK so Standard Chartered uses long-outdated facts to perform their analyse. Wow.
You don’t have to apologize for your tendency towards necrophilia in your woke ideology. If you feel it’s right, it must be OK. Live your truth. Be proud, own it!
was just having this conversation with some other fool who imagines that by May a gazillion factories will magically appear in the USA all producing stuff by workers earning $7.50 an hour or whatever min, wage is compared to the $10 a WEEK the current workers earn in other countries (yes it varies, but you get my point here). So yay, 2 years maybe even longer to get a factory on-line(with the all the power, water, roads, transport, EPA assessments, whatever) and at the end of it you get to pay more for the finished product. Maybe that's OK too but in the meantime the widgets and wotsits from other countries either stop coming altogether or cost 104% more. So I can't quite find where the winning is supposed to begin.
OK so 1 major country - the usa isolated itself from the rest of the world, who will continue collaborating, finally take and get the time to get to know each other, discover each other, replace the usa goods and services. Probably finally an EurAsian continent in peace from the eu-27 (450 million of the richest citizens in the world) + the eu-88 = 1.5 billion of the richest citizens in the world) all the way to China, and their companies, schools recognising each others diplomas etc. And millions educating themselves about crypto projects and their crypto tokens/"coins" to settle transactions in projects that need encryption near to instantly etc I think there is a growing basis for crypto. And we are explaining it over and over again. Greetings from the EU Commission programs on crypto and Ai.
Not even close .. Elon, a private citizen lost millions trying to prevent a blatant election theft whereas the democrats lost many billions of taxpayers dollars trying to buy the last presidential election. I'm OK with what Elon .. it was his money. However not ok with what the democrats did because that was my tax dollars. I didn't authorize that ... it was theft though USAID NGO's.
Both are garbage. It's OK to mock them both.
There are many people who bought the hype. And also thought "The office of the Presidency is quasi-sacred, no way would he use it for a rug-pull, so it must be OK"
Listen, sleepy diplodocus think about the guy who started buying at 48K whose wife made him stop at 16 K3 years ago that guy is OK today. Don’t stop DCA and you’re that guy in three years.
OK, why exactly did you leverage up an alt ? You do realize that outside of pure froth of a bull, they slowly bleed out to $0, almost all long term alt charts have this behavior. If you listened to any old timer here, you would know that timing the top is pretty hard, and most can't do it, so you really don't want to own something that you MUST exit the top, or you will get liquidated on the way down ? Perhaps you should sell out of the position, before the market sells you out of it. Chances are Bitcoin won't reach $41000, but its not impossible.
It being intentional doesn't make it OK.
That's OK, Trumps backers were able to offload their bags on the taxpayers, which is what it was all about anyway.
OK I’ll take the hit, no it won’t ever go up again. There now you have both perspectives and are back to square one
Then how do you HODL if you get a margin call? Bitcoin price is volatile. A bit of borrowing may be OK, but if you collateralize too much, you may lose all of it.
Been here 14 years, but OK newbie. You come here posting asking for advice, but looking at this thread you don’t actually want to hear ANY of the advice given to you. You invested in shitcoins and now you’re wondering what to do- like, yes you should cut your losses but you’ll likely ride it all the way down. You’re exactly the kind of guy that will get wrecked via his own hubris.
OK... well, being a snow Mexican, I can say. You're in better shape than us, and I'm not screaming the sky is falling. Can you give me an example of what makes you claim that the USA is collapsing?
I sold a kidney and lost my home but that's OK because I've got Diamond hands Bitcoin is going to $1000,000 LFG!
I remember you were bullish last year :( sad times ahead. I started selling what I have Profit in until things look OK. If not we'll I'll have cash to buy stocks
It's frankly WILD reading the comments on this post, considering how fervently pro-Trump the majority of the crypto community was before and during the election. Everyone thought fascism was OK, as long as their bags would get bigger...
