from his POV, a great deal is only great if he benefits the most from it, everything else doesn’t matter.
Think of from the POV of 2 people. One thinking there aren't gpo gto be those 4 year swings anymore.. they're going to get rekt of the cycle does repeat because odds are they are trading or paperhands. The other assumes there will be a big down cycle but then when they are wrong they are just pleasantly surprised. (Or.ledt behind waiting for the dip that never comes I guess) Take care.
Did you get banned for saying what you just said? Nope.. I actually value your POV and opinion because I am open to what you have to contribute to the conversation .. I am an investor and I don’t make decisions without input from both sides but f the trade
Outside of US most global powers have already banned it or disincentivized it to a certain extent. So if all the major economies become hostile, Bitcoin will still exist, and even if retail holds on because all their life savings are in it, institutions and sovereign wealth funds will exit. Recent rise from $75k to $100k+ can be attributed to an extent to Spot ETFs. So while I agree with your point too, I consider it an optimistic POV. I however like to keep the risks in mind to keep myself in check and not putting all my eggs in this basket. All eggs in one basket: Chance of +2000% gains over 10 years and -50% over ten years. Some diversification: Chance of +2000% gains over 10 years and +8% over ten years.
POV: Du hast deinen Entry verpasst
Just trying to understand your POV. You say you lose trust in BTC if only few people hold it. Is that because you fear price reactions or because you think it influences the network? I trust that I am able to create a transaction offline, broadcast it on a best effort basis & have it gets processed without censorship. That is what I trust in. And that ablility isn't compromised by large holders but it might get compromised by miner centralization.
From an investor POV, Coin or Token does matter… PEPE is piggybacking ETH, a blockchain known for expensive fees. Imagine taking profits, only for a huge chunk to be deducted… As a token, the original owners can mint new tokens anytime they want for themselves…which are basically rug pulls. Having a Layer 1 blockchain coin that requires mining prevents this. Not to mention the existing creators of PEPE are anonymous and can also come back just to mint new PEPE for themselves, which pollutes the token pool, making PEPE a high risk long term investment. This is why “BTC is king” for investors. Layer 1s are a good foundation for long term investments.
I am getting hung up on risk free, I don’t see what makes this risk free from the POV of the lender. It just sounds like a loan secured by a historically extremely volatile asset class. If the price of a token craters does that not therefore crater the value of the underlying security the loan? Sounds like pretty significant risk.

> That’s the slowdown I mean—spam pushes out normal transactions. Ok, that's not the definition of "slowdown" that the developers think of. Instead, we consider "slowdown" to be actual impact on CPU and memory usage that exceeds the average usage of a typical transaction. What you're describing is that the "spam" causes a high fee market, and that's definitely a concern. However, high fee markets, as we have seen with ordinals and many many times long past, resolve themselves eventually when those "spammers" run out of money. Furthermore, if those people want to make their transactions, they can and do directly submit their transcations to miners, bypassing mempools. This is trivially easy to do with things like MARA's Slipstream. When they do this, it actually makes it worse for everyone since direct submission removes information from fee estimation algorithms. Now, instead of being able to see the mempool and see that feerates are high, what you end up doing is making a transaction with a fee that you think is enough, and then finding out when a block is found that it actually wasn't. Lastly, Bitcoin is going to need a fee market eventually. Eventually, the block subsidy is going to be negligible, and miners will have to be sustained by fees. Any way you slice it, there has to be some point in time where the mempool is consistently full and fees generally increase as otherwise mining will stop being profitable and the security of the network goes down. > Without the OP_RETURN limit, a bad actor (say the CIA or someone with money to burn) could put illegal stuff, like child pornography, into the blockchain Even with the OP_RETURN limit, a bad actor can already do this. They can already do this with the inscriptions script construction, and that allows putting up to 4 MB into the blockchain whereas OP_RETURN would be limited to 1 MB. Furthermore, even without inscriptions, it's still possible to do it by creating outputs with fake hashes or fake pubkeys that actually encode the data. > They’re ignoring people who disagree (Samson Mow said there’s “no consensus”) Can you clarify what has actually been done that you think is "ignoring people who disagree"? Having read through the entire mailing list discussion and all of the comments on both PRs, I really don't think that's the case. Certainly there is no consensus, but there's been lively debate and discussion, and no action has actually been taken. Furthermore, several comments stated that they think the options should be preserved, and another PR was opened that does exactly that. That does not seem like ignoring people who disagree. > silencing critics Some of the biggest critics are wizkid057 and luke-jr. Their comments are still visible and readable, and in fact, many people have (tried to) engage them in discussion. And not just them, there's tons of comments in both PRs with debate going back and forth, each side trying to refute the other. I would not say that this is silencing critics. While several comments in the PR were hidden, these were hidden because they do not add to the converstion. Many of these are simply "Concept ACK" or "Concept NACK", which ultimately is not all that useful to the discussion and mainly ends up making it harder to read. Several comments were also hidden because they are off topic or abusive. However, I do not think any comments which left novel criticisms of the PR were actually hidden. > (Giacomo Zucco’s comments got deleted) There have not been many deleted comments. I count 4 deleted comments, and none of them appear to be from him. While I don't have a record of what the comments were, 3 of the comments were from accounts that look like spammers. 1 of the comments was actually from a regular contributor. None of the accounts look like Giacomo's. In fact, I don't think he has participated in the PR discussions at all, unless his Github name is not giacomozucco. > some devs have financial ties to projects with conflicts of interests. Can you cite any evidence for that? AFAIK, this claim seems to stem from the fact that Jameson Lopp is an investor in Citrea, a company that would benefit from this change, but are already planning on deploying their product without it. Jameson commented on the PR, but he is neither the person who opened it, nor the person who started the discussion. He's not even a Core Dev as he doesn't regularly participate in code review or submit PRs. From the perspective of the project, he's just another rando coming by to give their opinion. > They downplay risks (like past spam from Veriblock) I don't recall anyone referring to Veriblock or anyone citing risks from past spam. > and take away our choices (they removed a setting to force us to accept this) You write this as if a decision has been made and the PR merged. But no PR related to OP_RETURN has been merged. Neither Peter Todd's original PR that removes the option, nor Greg Sanders' alternate PR that leaves the option have been merged. In fact, of these 2 PRs, I think the one that's more likely to be merged is the second which leaves the option in, but of course no such merge decision has been made yet. > That's my POV. Tthe main point here is *how* this change is being implemented when it's deeply controversial. My POV is that this has been severely overblown and there's a ton of misinformation going around about what's actually happened. It seems like there's a bunch of influencers going around screaming as if the world is ending who also are getting their information second or third-hand rather than having actually participated in the discussions and reporting what they observed.
You are right, it would serve them well to do that. But many there have completely locked their POV and unfortunately it is not based on reality or facts alone, but rather emotions.
People talk about how Bitcoin is too slow and the fees are too high to use as money while happily using credit cards with * [Fees of 2.5 to 3.5% + 10 to 30 cents.](https://www.nerdwallet.com/article/small-business/credit-card-processing-fees) * [Settlement times of 1 to 3 days](https://www.fool.com/money/research/average-credit-card-processing-fees-costs-america/) The difference is that merchants have had 50 years to get used to hiding these problems from you. Besides little things like "universal adoption", the main thing Bitcoin is missing from a consumer POV is a service for chargebacks and fraud protection. Most problems in crypto are technically solvable with escrow. The real barrier is the social inertia. *Meanwhile...* what I'd love to see would be a Kaspa-based stablecoin pegged to the US Dollar circa March 31, 1999 and debasement-adjusted from there. So, as the US Dollar printer runs, the Matrix Dollar goes up to keep the real value stable. So, one Matrix Dollar would be worth about [$5 today.](https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/MABMM301USM189S)

Yes going from logarithmic to linear growth is what I'm talking about. It's just considerably less interesting from a speculative POV.
If you want them to hodl and really learn the way of bitcoin, that's a good idea. A paper wallet would suffice, tho. Since this person is not close to me, and I just want them to get a glimpse of a new POV (the one we all know), but I don't want to go through the trouble of teaching them, their coins will be in an exchange. They can take it from there. But if it was for my family, that's exactly what I'd do.
If you look at their trend for 1) Additional paid-in capital 2) Total Liabilities 3) Outstanding shares 500K BTC is much less appealing from a stockholder POV. In 10 years a BTC holder will be far better off than a MSTR holder.

Tbh I think from a government perspective it’s a brilliant move. Give some more breadcrumbs with pretty fluffy language so that crypto People who voted for trump can interpret how they wish and retain hopium. Saylor claims to have lots of creative ideas for budget neutral strategies. Also everyone claiming more countries will follow, but I don’t know am I buying that. Besides USA, which didn’t deliver in my POV, you have a handful of other countries talking about it, like Bhutan, which is my ignorance, but I haven’t even heard of it. 😅 also some scandal coming out from El Salvador in the last couple of days. I don’t claim to know anything but from a personal standpoint I think this bull run for BTC is coming to an end. It’s going to be a tough year for markets by the looks of things and this was the next hype piece BTC had going for it. Also even people into crypto are starting to get annoyed with the trump grift. Last weeks inside trading tweet, sacks today gaslighting people saying that outside of BTC the other coins mentioned on the tweet were never going to be included.
I think the same way, I think there is going to be a point where is no longer viable. Talking about code, doge coin the meme was created out of BTC’s code back then and I believe the creators improved it with some upgrades that BTC needed, if it is about code, there are “better” coins out there, the algorithm that btc is based, the SHA-2 (I think it means secure hash algorithm) comes from the NSA, I don’t quite remember the year but there was an article explaining how BTC’s code was based of SHA-2 who was created by a mathematician under the NSA, also satoshi nakamoto loosely means central intelligence, some say CIA, anyway this new money was created on an economic crisis and I don’t want to get super technical in the cycle of money, but there is a cycle where the money goes from gold based to paper to then the country in power falls and then another country replaces it as a world power (ehmmmm Us and china, like England, us, France, all the way back from rome) and regularly they take about 70 years each, it’s coincidental that the BTC came at the time where paper money for the U.S. is about to finishes its cycle. In my opinion BTC will be used for a “store of value lot at least that’s the last big use it is running around for this coin, but We needed someone to trust for then to build over it, get more coins to be real world assets and change the economic point of view, upgrade the network of money that now is being runner by banks. I believe Mr Dan pena said that if people new who satoshi nakamoto is, they will all sell BTC at the same time and the price would go to 0, IMO this is a bit extreme, but he has a point where the value of BTC is attached to the name of the inventor, taking into consideration that the creator has most of the btc. Anyway this was a great post and it’s wiiiiiiiild that they banned you for pointing out this who I think is a fair and valid POV.
leverage on a platform with margin calls... like i will never understand that. I understand fiat leverage without them; fixed term loans etc. those make perfect sense and are dip-proof. and when they have terms over 10 years, its basically free money because inflation will cover interest and more. and when you can take out new debt to cover old, you can also avoid taxes. Its great and makes you wonder how much longer fiat debt will exist. But why would you take out debt in a casino where the house can clear out a winning bet and make it a loser because of a temporary dip, AKA a "margin call"? Because its convenient? Because you dont mind risk? From the POV of someone who chooses bitcoin precisely to avoid the risks of fiat, I really dont understand margin debt. If you want to donate to the rich, you can just send money to billionaires directly.
From my POV it dies not really make sense to own actual crypto except for BTC. Everything else I only do futures trading.
> why all other crypto except BTC is a scam waiting to happen. I have written about this thoroughly from an economic and technical point of view. Most of you just keep spamming the same thing over and over again. Historical data shows a crypto's long-term value is predominantly driven by its sticky social vector, which they view the token as valuable from a social dimension. In other words, the most valuable tokens are permissionless store of value units, driven by social, not technical, consensus. ***Bitcoin has the largest and most Lindy social network using it as a store of value***. When you look at that social graph, you don't include tourists who trade within a year, then disappear for the next 3-6 years. Consequently, the most ***proven vertical of keeping value over time, having buyers perceive it as a speculative macro asset, not a tech bet.*** Now, you might argue, "The past doesn't mean the future." Just because the best use case so far is a permissionless store of value doesn't mean ***there is no room for other things, right***? You can speculate that tomorrow night will turn purple because the Martians decide to troll us. But those types of "whatever goes" speculation aren't meaningful because you can get whatever you want, untethered to reality. A more principled way to speculate is to think from 1) the fundamentals of demand and supply POV + 2) what blockchain tech can do to create goods/services to meet demand. But once you realize blockchain has inherent trappings, it becomes inefficient in doing many things in competition against alternative technologies. So why would others want to adopt an inherently inefficient technology to service their goods? So far, the data shows they only adopt the tech to make money off ppl who made money from betting on the right permissionless store of value token. In other words, ***they are just looking to turn crypto users into their customers, not much else.*** > ETH is a joke ETH joined the Silicon Valley bandwagon and branded itself as a "DApp store." This is horrible branding because it presumes crypto can attract users who aren't interested in crypto, even though every successful crypto DApp has said otherwise. > SOL SOL is taking ETH VC's floppy seconds and joined on the "DApp store" narrative. The only "breakout" DApp they got requires infinitely fast attrition of new users to sustain their revenue stream - it is not sustainable. > XRP Everything else XRP says it wants to do has been done more professionally by others. It runs on a meme narrative. > ADA It is one of the more vaporware in the top 10. If you want to bet on tech, that shouldn't be a choice. If you want to bet on ADA, you are really just betting on a meme.
From his POV, the following quote applies: “You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain”
You need to look at it from another POV. Don't look at how much $ your BTC is worth. Just look at the actual number of satoshis you have. Keep stacking, hold, dont sell.
POV: when you elect a USD maxi 😂
From an accounting POV, what journal entry/to what account should I write this to?
with prices going down, you buy what you need when you need it. with prices inflating, you spend money you down't have on stuff you don't need to impress people you don't like. That's why so many folks got into debt to "keep up with the Joneses". From my POV, the former is the more sustainable concept.
So because DYDX is “well known and respected,” that automatically means they can’t have bad design or flaws? Come on. That’s like saying a major bank can’t have a system glitch just because it’s reputable. And yeah, they usually warn about liquidity and slippage, but the fact that they didn’t this time should’ve been a red flag to you, not a reason to blindly press market order. That’s on you for assuming everything was fine instead of verifying first. Markets are brutal, and exchanges—no matter how big—aren’t perfect. As for “it could happen to anyone,” sure, but it didn’t. It happened to you. And instead of adapting and taking responsibility for your execution, you’re here blaming the exchange for not holding your hand. If you’re gonna be in this game, move smarter instead of crying about what “should” have happened. And just because my POV is in the minority doesn’t make it wrong. It just means most people don’t want to admit when their own mistakes cost them money.
Consider it from the POV of the owner of that miner: Instead of using it to mine Bitcoin, they rent it out to you. So, they must think that they will earn more in rent from you than they would gain by using it to mine Bitcoin. If they could mine more than your rent, they wouldn't rent to you in the first place. Which, when you turn it around, means, that you will pay more in rent than you will earn by mining. You'll make a loss. At least if electricity costs the same for both of you. If you have greatly different costs (their electricity is very expensive, your's is free) then there might be a small sliver of a sweet spot where the rent is actually a bit below *your* mining income (with free electricity), but from their POV is still above *their* potential mining income (if they factor in their expensive electricity). But that's unlikely to be the case, and even if it is, it means that your net income from "mining - rent" won't be more than their electricity costs, i.e. very little and not worth the effort.
POV: US sells their bitcoin to “find” the missing gold. 🤣
They claim some kind of issue with my info when I tried signing up. I tried to contest their decision to deny me an account to no avail. They would not give me a reason for the denial. Pretty shitty of them, from my POV
"Bitcoin > gold" come on already... stop this. Also you are literally wishing panic so that you get richer, people arent going to buy bitcoin for that reason because its negatively seen compared to gold. Its much much more speculative and less less adopted than gold. If gold disappeared the whole stock and market will go into a bigger recession than the covid one. This isnt a debate between gold and btc and whats better, these two are literally different. Seriously we people still didnt learn that the economy isnt just about fiat or gold but a bunch different forms of money and that can include crypto in the future but not necessarily and only btc, but a bunch of cryptos ? Confirmation bias and POV must be taken into count.
I don’t understand the question. Every thing that’s happened fits with the charts. Whether Trump won or not, we’d have had the same result within this period, speaking from a TA POV.
Show us your peer reviewed study that you are citing so confidently. You just ignored mine. I think you're full of shit. Show us. And I bet even if you find a study, it will be a terrible source because you're gullible and will believe anything if it supports your POV even if it's from a geocities page.
Price increase flattens as adoption increases looking at the past 15 years. I do believe reaching 1 mil will be quick (~10 years). But post that it’s hard to see the rationale of it still increasing 70-80% per year realistic. Halving won’t be as significant etc. Tell me your POV though.
POV you can’t buy more at this very moment
Bitcoin is not going to fail. A couple of days ago I listened to an interview with Ricardo Salinas, 3rd richest man in Mexico (https://youtu.be/SiV7UhoiZM8?si=O_N6iz_IULn4l2Ns . Spanish only unfortunately). He is full on bitcoin for very interesting reasons that are different to what I thought about BTC. It really opened eyes. You don't "imvest" in bitcoin, you are 'getting out' of the FIAT deflationary scam. I've been in Crypto since 2015. But really the POV mentioned by this guy made me think differently about bitcoin.
Out of question. The they are not competent enough (for starters) and, most importantly, way too risky from their POV. Makes zero sense.
You are right, there is bullish crypto news weekly. The problem here is that from macroeconomic POV we are facing major uncertainty. High risk assets usually do not perform well under these circumstances. That is what I tried to say here.
Tech people don’t understand bitcoin in a different way that TradFi bro don’t understand bitcoin, which is also different from how the nomies on the street don’t understand bitcoin. You kinda need to mix some tech with some conservative / Austrian economic with some Libertarianism to be onboard. The tech itself isn’t that impressive. From a techie’s POV it’s just a slow database. Distributed network exists long before Bitcoin etc etc. It’s all just a long ranty way of saying, yes if you only look at the “tech” of a blockchain then it’s natural for you to be unimpressed and wonder what all the fuss is about, why the number has gone up so much.
So, bulls: What's your thesis for how much we go up from here and why? Because from my POV, given facts as we know them now, I'm not seeing anything to cause a breakout before July.
Oh this sub is totally an echo chamber. I'm not denying that. It's also filled with noobs only concerned about price. Most real bitcoiners aren't even here anymore. I just wanted to point out that a sub dedicated to specific topics, unfortunately, isn't really the place to change minds. The style of your post was not really an invite to an open debate. You very much stated your POV as fact and demanded we give props.
Would love to understand your view, happy to just listen and take it in, just want to get the other sides POV
The US would have to be in full meltdown before this happens. Control over social security, healthcare, the internet, surveillance..it's already been taken. But even then, bullets won't win. China knows this, Russia knows this. US is adopting their strategies. From a crypto POV, I think we'll be lucky enough to catch the billionaire wave and make out on top.
I would say memecoins are good for making a quick buck from a retail POV. However, in the long run, it can prove to institutions that a chain is able to maintain high volume of trades without breakdowns.
Is your position that maybe he was trying to manipulate the market 11 years ago or more like today? I have invested pretty hard into BTC and MTSR over the past 5 years. I don't jump in blindly into any investment and do a shit ton of my own research. I am not quite sure why there is so much fear over Saylor. If you look into his background and history, he is a straight shooter and also a brilliant mind. He originally thought BTC was a fad and had little to no value. But after his own deep dive, he changed his POV and now is one of the biggest advocates that both BTC and MSTR have.
The Alt season has started, yesterday you had literally a live POV of how alts move despite BTC falling. Get your bags ready
I work as a KYC analyst at s bank, so I kind od know how this works. Due to this cryptoboom I think they have just too many people to rewiev and it just takes very long. From your POV it takes ages from their PoV weeks fly by like nothing. I know this might be frustrating but I would remain hopeful. 🤞
True, I never said it is, but good you understand his POV now.
Fuuuu I bought at $10, and people were saying it was a Dino coin. If I held, I woulda gained $10k. I shouldn’t have listened, I didn’t listen when I bought Solana at $20-30. It paid off. I think I prefer my gut reactions to charts than vibes of peoples POV

She could've made wayyyy more money if she sold exclusive rights to a distributor for a POV BJ scene. Missed opportunity.
Look, it's easy for those of us who have been here for a long time to sitback and watch the rekage happen but shit like that is bad for adoption. I actually have some empathy for her situation. She is trying to capitalize on her "brand" and I gotta give her credit. In this case I think she got taken advantage of by some shady people and people made poor decisions and got hurt. Its easy to blame the victims here, but its really kind of fucked when crypto economists argue the merits of crypto against wallstreet to legitimize the asset class and people start to think that its "safer" now only to find out the hard way that not all crypto is created equally. Rugpulls and memecoins are bad for the cryptoeconomy as we try and build additional credibility to drive adoption. I for one welcome, and I know I am snorting some really good shit here, thoughtful, effective, and well informed regulatory oversight in the broader crypto economy. We can't be the wild west memecoin degeneracy AND expect to be taken seriously. The idea of "fuck you, I don't need you to take me seriously" is some prepubescent temper tantrum bullshit. I realize we are in /r/bitcoin here and there are probably more regulars in here that have a similar POV, but also, that fucking line was GOLD.
Most TradFi folks avoid bitcoin because they think its risky but cant tell you why. I think if they actually sat down and did due diligence on bitcoin the same way they might on Joes Super Awesome Technical Dohickies Ltd. they might change their POV.
In my POV, it's not a race to have more than the other person, it's about being in it in the first place. Congrats on making it, you're on the right track. For those who are in it to attempt to build wealth are missing the point. I'm not saying one can't or shouldn't, it's just that BTC is much more than that. It's an opportunity to leave the old ways behind. If one keeps thinking the end goal is to have the most USD, they're playing for more monopoly money, useless money that political hacks want you to keep using. They're going to keep smearing BTC and us for wanting to not stay slaves to their paper debt. Keep exchanging that paper for BTC and HODL until they have no choice but to accept that BTC will be the something they cannot CONTROL and control us with.
you are only a degen from a tradfi POV, not a crypto degen
Give me 1 hour or 2. By then my cognitive functions should be low enough to appreciate their POV
Both gold and bitcoin are very useful in different way yet we are already seeing massive divergence (subjective value put on each depending on POV of the observer) that will continue
I watch Cowen's videos and have followed some of the advice on the channel. Mostly to sell before the larger % drops from the last cycle and buy mostly BTC at the start/low point of this cycle ($15-$30k). That is to say, I may be biased in his favor. Also, I haven't fully watched your video yet. Just looking through spreadsheet and picked one at random to look at for now: \#13 - BTCUSD will bottom on first Fed rate cut Ben's actual words in the video: What you quoted... >...That on the very first rate cut, that might be the bottom for Bitcoin. And it could be a higher low, it could be a lower low, it could be a double bottom. What he said directly after your quote... >**It all depends on how aggressive the Fed wants to be. And anyone that's going to tell you they know what's going to happen I can assure you that they don't, okay, including myself. Right? You need to be open to all three possibilities. I'm just saying you know if we do get a double bottom or a lower low it should not be that surprising. Or if it's a higher low it should not be that surprising. You have to be open-minded to how the markets change and evolve as we continue to move forward in the business cycle and how the unemployment rate unfolds as we get further into the business cycle as well.** Do you see the bolded words in the quote. You just ignored that part. You didn't put it in the video, nor point it out in any way. So let's break this down from my POV. Cowen has said there are 3 options he thinks are likely: \* Lower low on first rate cut \* Double bottom on first rate cut \* Higher low on first rate cut He also states that he doesn't really know what is going to happen in the future. It depends on how the business cycle further evolves. Ok...so what did you say... (in response to what you quoted above): >Well you've heard this right. Bitcoin might bottom on the first rate cut by the Fed. Now we know that the first cut happened in Sept 2024 as marked by this vertical line. And the price back then was not close to the bottom. In fact if we calculate the move from the bottom it was around 300% of the bottom and if we're a bit more generous and check from the time when Ben published the video it's more than double that price. So, we need to mark this as another miss for Ben. Ok. What actually happened to BTC during the first rate cut? \* Was it a lower low on the first rate cut compared to when the video aired No. It was not \* Did BTC double bottom during the first rate cut? No. It did not \* Did BTC have a higher low on the first rate cut. **Yes and no.** BTC had a higher low on the 6th/7th/8th of Sept. Rate cuts were on the 18th of Sept. So, within 14 days of the Fed's first rate cut BTC had the lowest close it had had since the 26th of February2024. **Based on his full statements above, I at least would qualify this as meeting the requirements of his statement.** It was a higher low. It was higher then when the video was out, and it was a 6-9 month low compared to previous prices. How is this now a 'higher low'? Why are you even classifying this as a "prediction"? \_\_\_\_\_\_ This is the first number I looked at and I feel like I'm already seeing issues with your statements and video. Are you going to come out and 'tweak' your statement in the video just like you accuse Cowen of doing so many times? Please elaborate.
To be honest the Bullrun seems much better from the Russian currencies POV. He probably thinks thats good...
From a mining point of view ETC is strong and consistent. It’s not going anywhere , I’m not sure from a trading POV.
not surprised at all... let's say you are in investor and got in early on the latest fomo at 70k. well in less than a month you've made 30%... you'd be kinda stupid not to take those gains and run. from a traditional investors POV, it's smart we are not investors, we are hodlers.... just wait for the investors to finish taking their profits at 99k and we'll restart the rocket.
For Android, I really like "Simple Crypto Widget". From my non-technical POV, the permissions needed seem reasonable and if you are savvy, you can verify (instead of trusting 😉) the code at https://github.com/hwki/SimpleBitcoinWidget
Interesting perception. From my POV it’s being talked about more than it ever has before. Even political appointments in the states tend to reference their sentiment towards BTC - that’s quite new. Institutional coverage is also much higher than it’s ever been.
POV: A new bag holder is born
Nothing changed. At least from my POV. I mean, except the amount of the repetitive questions being asked, which is about 100X up. Most are redirected to r/BitcoinBeginners and some just make undetected for some time when you see them, I guess.
Is that actually generational wealth? Hard time really fathoming that to be the case. Cost of living is bizarre in New York in general so maybe that’s distorting my POV
Oh, you don’t think you’re in an echo chamber? It’s absolutely pathetic on Reddit now - your cest pool is estimated to be nearly 90% liberal from a US POV. You all absolutely live in an echo chamber. Yeah bud, there’s no honesty time, now. You could bring up coherent talking points and counter arguments right off the bat and this conversation goes entirely different. Not really interested in your viewpoint of the federal reserve and the relevance of the constitution, much less your critique on Christianity. I’ve been in this sub for 4 years. I know exactly how it goes around here and I know exactly when an outsider fully engaged with Reddit’s echo chamber decides to show up with a pompous attitude. I find it absolutely priceless listening to self righteous individuals like yourself trying to make counter arguments and win fights by ridiculing.
My POV is that 90% of social media is fake.
My POV: May 2021 BTC €46k >> Nov 2021 BTC €56k After that we had the drop down. Now: March 2024 BTC €66k >> Nov 2024 €86k If we are not having the same pattern as years back, this is going down soon or after new years eve. (Last cycle lasted approx 8 months and now we're in the highest after 8 months) That's my humble prediction looking at the graphs. If someone can correct something or give a personal opinion it's welcome.
\> Should be % based, $ doesn't matter 100% agree; but at the same time, if you put it in terms of how much you can buy with it, its still a pretty big move. These moves dwarf the value of 50% moves when bitcoin was young. on 2021/02/08, bitcoin moved 7500 pounds of ground chuck or 2500 gallons of gasoline on 2024/11/11, bitcoin moved only 1500 pounds of ground chuck, but 2700 gallons of gasoline. From a neutral POV, that means the 2021 move was bigger in % but smaller in real value changed; (meanwhile ground beef had a massive supply crunch) So percentage isnt necessarily much more illustrative, but in all cases the dollar is dogshit.
Well I understand, and obviously it doesn't mean that EVERY SINGLE Bitcoiner is ALWAYS talkative on the subject, but social medias are flourishing with Bitcoiners telling others to either buy the dip or invest on the long run. It's weird from an outsider's POV, it makes Bitcoin look like a scammer's business.
I entirely get your POV but it it meant peace of mind for someone I get that too
Yes, my post has a clear point of view and an argument. But I didn't say anything untrue and I backed up my POV with evidence. I am just tired of hearing the same old "Trump is good for crypto" lines by maxis and bagholders without consideration of any of the nuances or consideration of the stain his NFT and Defi projects bring onto the industry as a whole. Sensible regulation is good for long-term growth. Benign neglect is not.
I disagree. I don't think any of those people--with the possible exception of Vance since he was a silicon valley guy--really care about crypto as a technology. I think they see it as a way to make money and/or fuck with people. I mean three years ago Elon publicly [called Dogecoin "a hustle"](https://www.reuters.com/technology/dogecoin-spotlight-cryptocurrency-backer-musk-makes-snl-appearance-2021-05-07/) which caused its price to tumble and it's never come anywhere close to those highs since. I think Gensler is out either way. Harris has gotten really close with Mark Cuban during the campaign, and Cuban has been [publicly savaging Gensler](https://www.politico.com/news/2024/10/11/mark-cuban-gary-gensler-fight-sec-future-harris-00183090) in a big way. Not to mention that Harris has signaled that she's open to developing sensible regulation and has been having industry people draft up some policy proposals around crypto. The other thing from my POV that makes Trump uniquely bad for crypto (and the economy more generally) is that he is so fucking chaotic. Markets do best when there's stability and predictability and I can think of no two words that describe Trump less than "stable" and "predictable." I mean do you remember when he was [publicly threatening to nuke North Korea on Twitter](https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-42549687)?? [I saw this ad](https://x.com/Daractenus/status/1851599196907860112) recently (not made by/affiliated with Harris) that really captures how I feel like life was when Trump was in office and constantly in our faces. Who needs more of that?
Personally, I see it as the elite class of tech that are following Trump vs. the rank & file tech people. VCs, Elon, Sacks, etc. Those people who would get hit hard by the unrealized capital gains. They are loud, influential and using shilling strategies on us to believe it’s bigger movement than what it truly is…... However— there are more support for the Trump than there use to be so it has had some success. I could be wrong but we’ll know by seeing the election results in tech heavy states (CA, WA, NY, etc.) soon IMO— Dems have done this to themselves though with an anti-innovation attitudes. I do hope that this is a wake up call to the party that they are crushing support and will lose elections in this sector. Gensler is just 🤦♀️. Elizabeth Warren needs to step aside and Ro Khanna needs to become that voice. Also, there has always been a Libertarian movement in tech. Lots of tech startups types are anarchist/rebel, hardcore free speech believers and want to change the world. Personally, I can understand that POV and think that benefits. Can’t go there fully because I believe in funding important things and social responsibility. https://www.voanews.com/amp/silicon-valley-luminaries-take-sides-in-presidential-contest/7735448.html
