Two month old post but I've been using Robinhood lately (USA resident) and I'm really impressed. I'm not a trader but a long term holder and have sold some. I'm impressed with Robinhood as I can transfer coin from my cold wallet to Robinhood, sell, and transfer cash to my bank, sometimes literally within 10 minutes. With Coinbase it always seemed to be a protracted affair. In the year or so I have been using Robinhood I have always been happy, and now they have Prediction Markets too. So an upvote on them being a solid choice for USA residents and easy to deal with.
Not a registered voter. Never have been. Don’t live in the USA. Just calling it like I see it. It is what it is.
No no, it's the USA in its entirety. Trump, other government officials, and the general populace alike
USA also pumped it in 2024 🤣

I said phone/phones, I said between $0.1-0.4 a day, if you had a spare device or your own actual device where you could make that daily but doing nothing but just being connected to the internet, would you do it? I said 3rd world because people who may live in the USA or UK or else where wouldn’t find this even remotely useful, but for example the Philippines where the salary is a few hundred dollars a month, could this even help out a little bit… I’m not here to argue
This video is misleading. Not every miner pays the same for electricity. Not every miner is in the USA

Yeah I learned that the hard way when the USA bombed iran and I invested all my money in oil stocks, then the company imploded the next day and I lost everything
Can you speak more to the insurance you’re talking about? I’m not familiar. Insurance provided by who? What’s it cover exactly? I personally don’t keep my bitcoin on exchanges, but I’ve also been a holder of bitcoin since 2017 and comfortable navigating cold wallet(s). However, my Dad (71), owns significantly less than me, does keep his on the exchange (River) —which is the exchange I use to buy. They’re bitcoin only, I believe only available in the USA (not available in Nevada/NY) and has excellent customer service, very transparent and hold security to the highest standard. River also provides proof of reserves, which is nice: https://river.com/reserves

What violence did tether partake in? I'd have to agree with you. But then I look at China lowering life expectancies in the USA and Canada with their fentanyl exports and most of that appears to be done with banks and cash.
Bitcoin may not have utility for you currently in a relatively stable country. But imagine you’re in China, where there’s strict capital control. You bought physical gold. War breaks out with TW, soon JP enters, eventually Russia and USA gets dragged in. Can’t leave with the physical gold as it would get confiscated. Best store and transfer of value is Bitcoin.
Okay, maybe the recent fast food chain in USA might interest you. They began accepting payments nation wide and it transformed their business. The support they saw from the community, the reduction of fees, etc. Since then they've doubled down, given their employees bonus in bitcoin, adding bitcoin to their reserves. You can search their X profile for more bitcoin related posts, here is one. https://x.com/SteaknShake/status/2012346855451931045 "Crypto in general", gonna stop you there. Crypto is a scam, this is the bitcoin sub. We avoid that shit like the plague. "limited supply", that is a feature. How can money have value if it can be created without cost or effort? You're asking nothing new that hasn't been asked 100 times over, there are plenty of books on the subject. No one is gonna hold your hand.
Dude I have many investments going on But I’m telling crypto will blow up soon and your going to see a hole new batch of millionaires soon u only follow USA most likely there big stuff going on over seas trust me crypto going sky rocket soon very soon
tldr; The article analyzes the top 100 public companies holding Bitcoin in 2026, highlighting corporate treasury strategies and global adoption. Strategy (MSTR) leads with 713,502 BTC, representing 62.9% of holdings among the top 100 companies. Collectively, these companies hold 1,133,469 BTC, with the USA dominating with 71 entities. Mining firms feature prominently, and geographic concentration is evident in North America. The report underscores Bitcoin's growing role as a corporate asset and its implications for market dynamics and institutional legitimacy. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

Usually bitcoin needed 1-2 years to start to recover. Even if it bottoms soon it will linger around for a time Besides, there is much happening in the world this year and next year which was not happening last few times. AI bubble is a risk that will pull everything else to the floor but noone knows when. USA has several crisis lined up. And geopolitics are so chaotic right now. Any of these and many more issues will cause bitcoin to be pulled too
I haven’t lived in the USA for some time, and I’m happy I don’t live in that shithole.
How are you supposed to take this industry seriously when the fucking president of USA creates a meme coin
Because how can I assume the “best” with what’s going on in the USA. Lol
Litecoin is the most ethical cryptocurrency. I wanted to buy that rather than thinking I am buying something to rug pull others (ie zero sum). It was working - and then the USA elected the most corrupt gangster imaginable. I should have pivoted then as he’d only let the ones who bribed him the most win. And litecoin was launched fairly, so doesn’t have the ‘foundation’ level money to enrich creators. And ofc course, CZ paying Trump for his pardon in October when litecoin started to get going.
30% of people in the USA are completely illiterate.
People have been saying "Its just a shakeout" since we broke $110k And the tariffs werent a pre planned diamond hands test , The USA is in debt and they needed a way to finance that so they made use of a revenue generation method (Tarrifs) And we recovered from those lows because the market realised that Tarrifs arent actually the end of the world and because most countries cut interest rates boosting liquidity
trash orange potus can just tweet tomm USA setting up BTC reserve of $100M per quarter or some bs after he and his son bought the dip. he can say that tomorrow at open. short squeeze commmeth.
USA jobs reports came out today! And its bad!! So the markets fell
look global. Bitcoin is global. S&P is American. USA is just 1 country on this planet. https://www.reuters.com/business/media-telecom/global-software-stocks-hit-by-anthropic-wake-up-call-ai-disruption-2026-02-04/#:\~:text=Summary,Anthropic's%20Claude%20large%20language%20model.
What makes you so sure he isn't one of the whales? Look at the USA political elites now
# "Without any market certainty of what's going on." lmao, the treaty about limitation on nuclear weapon between Russia and USA is ending and tensions are rising, Europe is rearming but sure...there is really no certainty about what's going on, just read the international room that will give you some informations
It’s not going anywhere near 500k. At this point everybody heard of BTC, where is it supposed to get new investors from? If the president of USA couldn’t get it further than 100k, nothing will. Unless the value of dollar plummets by 500%. Sorry, but BTC has no value other than speculating. It’s not even a good store of value. It can’t grow much longer
I mean the USA was built on some pretty bad stuff, and I still live here.
complete opposite. Liquidity is increasing right now. China printing billions. USA as well.
Here you go: Say you own $10,000,000 in any stock in the USA, Japan, Europe, or China. Now say you split it between 3 accounts, $5 million, 2.5 and 2.5. Now you create a program where the 3 accounts fight each other to make it look like lots of demand either up or down. Because you know exact timings, you initiate it in a way (HFT) so that the likelihood of anyone but you buying your own stash is very low. You can artificially raise and lower the price this way, but it is **highly** illegal and *very* enforced and policed. You'll be caught, max, within a week, and there are 10-15 year prison sentences depending on how big you move the stock price / marketcap. So it just never ever happens in the established finance markets. Last time, really, was the HFT stock bug crash in 2012 (knights capital) adn before that, you have the silver cornering of the 1980s. ===== With crypto, anyone can pick any public exchange, and even the exchanges themselves (Bitfinex was accused of this hardcore in 2012) and this time, you can *ensure* you're the only buyer of your assets via certain means. So anyone with, say, $10M in Ethereum could spin up dozens and dozens of accounts that "fight" for the movement one way or another. That's what people mean, or at least they should mean. This isn't regulated at all outside of the USA and seems to be the norm in South Korea and China, and for sure, coutnries like Mexico aren't enforcing it one way or another on crypto exchanges.
That’s my conspiracy too. It’s their last ditch effort to remain in power. Most oligarchs last around 250 years before they lose power. And guess what anniversary for the USA is right around the corner.
Unfortunately most people are idiots and only think about the USA and not other countries that much bigger and have more tec There’s tons of place thinking last two years on making crypto as easy to use as a bank card less fees ect it’s really close to passing in many other place where they have money and crypto what ever you like to use . The USA is the only country that is behind as a 1st world country sadly as a 1st world country it’s as close as you can get to a 3 world country. Internet is 10 x slower then china and Japan and the schools are about 10-15 years behind other nations. Once there’s other countries less fees to by and sell and make trading crypto from 10-20 minutes to seconds you will see crypto take off like fire and the USA will still be sitting on there hands watch other countries surpass them in lots of things . Just remember there’s things we teach math most people will never use English 18 years and bs history that fake most of kids lives then same thing in college. Go look up what kids are learning elsewhere Coding hacking ect there’s 5-9 year old kids who can code better then any college kids in the USA . Why because we keep teaching bs shit and don’t change for the future . Mostly because USA want to spend tons of money on ungrounded bunkers and the government and people in the government stealing the money more then education to keep up with what really going on with the world and tec You need to really educate your self on what’s going on over sea and what other governments are doing because it going to change lots and it’s not far off from happening.
The world is absolutely in 95% panic mode but the USA is whatev.
You don’t currently see any destabilizing events happening? JGB’s, USA’s currency collapsing, end of the 4th turning…
Come into the Discord and people will get you sorted. The community is great and very helpful. It is tricky to get relative to mainstream coins but not impossible. I have acquired much from the USA. https://www.theqrl.org/markets/#markets
If you stay in the USA, you will need to pay the taxes. There are countries that don't tax crypto trades, but as long as you are a US citizen who plans to move back to the USA eventually, you will owe those taxes, and they will find you. Believe it or not, I've got a buddy who made \~$100M on BTC by buying on leverage back around 2017. He moved to Eastern Europe to avoid taxes, and now he can never come back. My advice: stay in Florida, pay the taxes.
Iis a TFSA so its 100% tax free. I can't hold title from an USA issuer but I will have to pay 15% in tax. So its possible but its a big downside
Tether is still a scam in fact to be considered a stablecoin for USA they had to restart from scratch again lol
It is 5x of 40k which I am very afraid that we are going to hit end of 2026 unless something very good happens which is unlikely with everything that is going on right now ( Iran tensions once more , Ukraine war no signs of ending which was the opposite a few weeks ago , tarrifs still going on , USA and EU arguing about Greenland , stocks had a big run for a long time which might lead to a bear market soon , Epstein)
Europe is selling their USA exports to other countries. The EU already got major deals with India and South America. EU lost a friend, USA lost them all.
Added to my shorts lets go USA make me proud
THE HAM RADIO TRANSACTION In February 2019, a pair of developers proved that you don’t even need an internet service provider to use Bitcoin. They successfully sent a transaction over a distance of 1,260 kilometers (783 miles) using nothing but High-Frequency (HF) radio waves. The experiment was conducted by Rodolfo Novak (co-founder of Coinkite) and a developer known as "NVK." They used an amateur "ham" radio to broadcast a signed Bitcoin transaction from Toronto, Canada, to a receiver in Michigan, USA. The receiver then bridged the signal to the internet to broadcast it to the global network. This was a massive breakthrough for the concept of "censorship resistance." It demonstrated that even if a government were to shut down the national internet or cut undersea fiber-optic cables, the Bitcoin network could still function. By using the ionosphere to bounce radio signals across borders, the network remains accessible to anyone with basic radio equipment and the knowledge to use it. It truly turned Bitcoin into a "borderless" technology that exists in the airwaves themselves.
Yeah but Trump said they would speak english if the great USA wouldn't have save them ... I don't thing he can understand how people can be trilingual 😂
So what ? BTC is worldwide. Not linked to USA white house.
His wiki says 1986 and USA lol Hes pretty secret [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sergey\_Nazarov\_(businessman)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sergey_Nazarov_(businessman))
Does the dollar go up and down 5%, 10%, 20% in a day constantly? It's not about "inherent value" its about what something is being valued against. BTC is valued against DOLLAR. Dollar is valued against DOLLAR. It is the currency used in the USA since 1792 as offical currency. It was to avoid trading chickens and cows for things. BTC is a Ponzi scheme built for speculators & utilized by criminals, launderers. When was the last time the dollar moved 10% in a single day? You should feel not very smart right now
Conspiracy theory 101: Trump trying to devalue BTC as much as he can so he can buy it all the bottom and make reserve currency. USD dollar dying. Debt wont be able to be paid back. All other Countries recognize this and going to gold which will force USA to resort to BTC as its last ditch effort to remain in power. I know nothing about anything just making a random conspiracy lol.
*israel They run the USA.
Sergey was a philosophy major though and born in the USA. This email is only 2 weeks after their ICO and chainlink has focused on tech not money.
Just purchase a starlink from a independent country like Switzerland , They wouldn't obey EU laws and it will always work. Buying a locally registered starlink is always carry great risk. Locally registered starlinks are controlled by the state. It must be purchased from a reliable country USA/Switzerland etc.
Bitcoin Well. Bull Bitcoin if you are not in the USA. With both of these exchanges you MUST send to your own wallet after a purchase.
In other words people don't understand anything that's why they keep losing money in different meme coins by selling their BTC when price goes down. Simply said this is all wrong! Governments shouldn't get involved with crypto / Bitcoin but it's too late. Now every FOMC meeting determine BTC price, every USA news regarding economy impacts it etc. Very bad in all aspects. But this was driven by price and people being greedy not understanding that this is double edge sword. Anyway there is no coming back anymore and clearly BTC is becoming very centralised and controlled in term of price action by banks, institutions and mainly the USA government. This doesn't mean it's dead but just it's harder for people to stay put and invested in something which can price crash and then pump in 1 day. Pure manipulation.
This is true for securities, but in the USA bitcoin is not treated as a security, and thus the wash rule doesn't apply. If anyone is aware of this changing or has heard of people getting into trouble with this I'll definitely take the post down.
USA yes. You'd have to Google it but it's big lame for Bitcoin holders.
What new bitcoin taxes? Is this in USA?
Russia, Israël, UAE... The USA has been compromised for a while now. I suspect most if not all of them have dirt on Trump/Epstein.
Are you dense? In the US kidnapping and human trafficking are serious crimes and so is racketeering. Aggravated kidnapping is a minimum of 20 years. RICO charges can land you up to 20 and consecutive counts of it will add up to life imprisonment. Not even counting for all the other illegal shit they were doing. There is a reason they did it in the golden triangle and not in the USA.
Yes, but your assumptions are dead incorrect to begin with about Polymarket. If you bet on "Boston Bruins vs whatever team," = you are gambling. But if you think that a "No" outcome to the question "Will the USA strike 5 foreign nations in February?" is gambling, I'm afraid you may be wrong. It's a bet probably more sure than any crypto out there.
Im pretty sure that after elections on USA we Will finally get everything done so q3 or q4 Will Be The Time when everything blows The f up and people Who dont hold Will Be safe as Hell. Warren buffet: "if you dont plan to invest atleast for 10 years, dont invest at all"(literally worlds best investor).
Assuming USA, yes it is absolutely taxable income. If you bought it less than 1 year ago, it's short term gains. If more than 1 year ago it's long term gains. Where you can make an argument is if you buy crypto again i believe you can file it as wash trading, and only pay tax on the difference gained.
From the reading I’ve been doing yes, the USA plans on doing that with all their trillions in debt. The real idea behind it is payment rails to instantly setting international payments and to replace the swift network.

Just bought the dip & holding in the USA 🇺🇸
I agree! If you look at bitcoin cycles for last decade+...bitcoin will continue to drop in 2026 as low as $45k. Sideways in 2027, will hit next peak $160k+ in late 2028, early 2029. My calculations are based on actual numbers and % only. I am not taking into account that 2028 is election year in USA. So i think it will be even higher. So if you need that $ before Q4 2028- Q1 2029, you should not put ur $ into crypo. But if u can hold for 2-3 yrs, this is a great opportunity.
Hence why smart money sold. Diminishing returns hitting hard and you sleep better with a worldindex while pulling better ROI. No case to be a bitcoiner anymore. President of USA endorsing it was the obvious top.
Can't the USA buy most bitcoins to control the market?
Nexo already does this for quite some time , Not in USA though because trump is butt budy with competitor
In the USA this would be a fine and a 3 year sentence but we’ll let them out in 1 for good behavior! And India news will somehow still glaze the USA and shit in China
no >! because I don't live in the USA !<
Which president? USA, Argentina or CAR?
so entertaining to read this sub. Many are guessing the bottom price. Just look at the current situation (Policies, Geopolitics, Insider Trading USA, losing trust in usa).
It was a weak bull run based on the global picture. 0 retail interest and trump promised the USA govt would stack 750k additional bitcoins by 2028. If the latter happened would have been a massive bull run.
Well it’s difficult to operate when you are a pond away. Also, helps to have an island on the edges of USA in case a genocidal colonizers needed to do some covert missions
Anyone that the USA doesn't like and got debanked. Money should be political agnostic instead of depending being in the good graces of a country that is now also ruled by an orange dictator wannabe for example An oz of gold is an oz of gold, no one can stop you from using it per se, that's the idea behind Bitcoin at least.
Same story as the european gold stored in USA after WW2, it's there but it isnt ? 😆
In the current situation, what Powell doing is hawkish, he keeps it at current rates. Lowering yields helps market in the short term right now but will cause the inflation to destroy the USA. So whatever they do, there is only a fine line they can move without fucking shit up. Interestingly, there is another thing with Warsh. He always expressed that he hates that the FED buys so many bonds, accumulated from 2008 and 2020 crisis. He thinks it isn't good policy. If Warsh does what he believes in, it will raise the yields for bonds which in turn drives the US government to very expensive new debts.
>Fiat currency and debasement always lead to disaster. The USA is using fiat currency and has the greatest economy on the planet and is home to the world's greatest companies. If using a fixed supply currency was truly better, some other country would have used it by now to leap frog the USA in economic productivity.
The most corrupt president in USA history had a vested interest in crypto number go up and is appointing any and every crypto go up appointee he can. The billions of dollars he's bilking don't concern themselves with the thousands of dollars we crypto shrimp will be able to make along the way
There are a finite number of coins. That should mean the price will only go up over time. The problem is lots of these coins are being bought up by whales and Wall Street, who manipulate the price to ensure they make the money, not you. If you do buy it, only buy an amount you will never need to take back or cash in and hold it long-term until it hits a price that realises a return you’re happy with. That is the only way you will make money, outside of being on a WhatsApp chat with the current leaders of the USA.
Yes I live in Australia and purchased from an Australian exchange in Australian dollars. Most countries outside of the USA purchase BTC in the currency they are paid in not USD.
Impeach and jail Presdident Trump, self enrichment from presidency, pedophile, destroying the dollar, splitting Amerika, make USA from friend to foe to many countries. it's shamefull to see the great country of the USA sliding further and further in decay.
Russia has more coin than USA, you're all fools
Kevin Warsh, the man Trump named to be the next FED Chair was removed overnight as an "Advisor" at Anchorage Digital, the bank that has partnered with Tether to issue USA₮, the first federally regulated stablecoin... Nothing to see here 🤔 https://i.postimg.cc/9Q1LZCYM/G-7QGx4b-EAUu-M-R.jpg
By American citizens ... This one is on you, USA.
bummer that the platform above does not support businesses in USA?
My wife is involved deeply with a stablecoin project at one of the big USA banks. As the deadlines were being checked off and completed, we became weary of any crypto prices. Eventually she convinced me to sell it all, back in the fall. I'm glad I did, because now we are finding out that btc is in deep trouble, trying to compete with stablecoin options is not possible.
I am still here. Fuck off yo. I’ll hold to the moon. In may there’re will be a crazy money policy in USA and people will run their money somewhere else. Belief me or not. I’m sure that bitcoin will be fulfill the ideas of crypto. Anonymous Cash payment, without MAGA Techies and absolut Independent without any influence of crazy presidents.
>In the last few years they added air fryers and vinyl records because "sales were up" - but air fryers are mass-produced tech which people only buy once and vinyl records are a niche item which is already at the highest price people will pay. Neither of these items will rise in price on average, but their price is multiple times that of milk, eggs, pasta etc. so they outweigh the everyday items in the basket, to help level out the perceived rate of inflation. That appears to be something the UK has done, not the USA. Obviously, the UK is in a far more perilous economic situation than the USA.
Here's how spending bitcoin IRL looks like: https://youtu.be/Tlhvnpi2ukA I'm using Bitcoin almost on a daily basis. Buying groceries, paying for meals, taxis, domains/hosting, VPN... Spend and replace is usually the name of the game so no, I'm not spending bitcoin while saving in cash. If you're thinking about spending some, here are my favorite directories: http://lightningnetworkstores.com/ https://btcmap.org - awesome map, you can even add your local vendors in, once you orangepill them. https://acceptlightning.com/list.html https://spend-sats.com/ https://spendabit.co/ https://directory.btcpayserver.org/ There's also an option of buying gift cards https://thebitcoincompany.com/ https://bitrefill.com https://www.egifter.com/buy-gift-cards-with-bitcoin - this one's least fave because they use a shitty custodian for payments but are handy for a few cards. The custodian might steal your sats and ask for a KYC before releasing them, so go with tiny amounts only if really need to use them. Spend and earn some sats back: https://foldapp.com - save up to 20% Starbucks, Uber, Target , whole foods , Dunkin https://www.lolli.com – save up to 30% by spending BTC anywhere but primarily USA stores https://satsback.com/stores-list - save up to 20% by spending BTC anywhere but primarily Europe stores.
My moves are already predetermined. I don’t know what submit means but yea, I’m pretty detached emotionally art this point. 25% of my portfolio is crypto (only because I got in early), and that portion doesn’t move more than once a year. Sometimes not for years. I’m doing nothing with this dip, no matter how far the dip. That’s still just house money sitting in a reserve for me. The rest of my portfolio is well diversified with 40% of it being international and 10% of that being emerging markets (especially India). USA side is mostly S&P, chipset ETFs, 10% gold, and then small a collection fun stock pickers in space or whatever but even those are being DCA. It’s nice having a plan. Decisions are already made. Takes the emotions out of it easily.
global economy is re-aligning. Many thought the USA would intervene in Japan, Bessent said nope. It's going to take a while but yeah, central banks etc might find themselves in a very tight situation for debt funding. Life could get very expensive very fast. That's why I am sticking to Bitcoin.
