You never were able to buy a house in Europe or USA with a bitcoin in 2020 nor you will in 2030.
It's backed by all citizens of the USA.
I don't have XRP. But any monetary currency needs to be exchanged to local currency. Euros are useless to me as an American in the USA for purchases. I can't go to the store and buy milk with Euros. Hell there are some currencies that I couldn't even exchange at the bank, literally totally useless to me. But they are still currencies.
World =/= USA. Crypto is global.
tldr; Ripple Labs has secured a Federal Banking License in the USA, enabling it to operate as a bank powered by blockchain technology. This marks the creation of the first 100% crypto-native bank, offering faster transactions, lower costs, and easier credit access. Ripple's USD-backed stablecoin and blockchain efficiency could make it a major competitor in banking. The move is expected to accelerate crypto adoption and boost XRP's value, Ripple's native cryptocurrency, as it plays a key role in transaction fees on the XRPL blockchain. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

I’m with you brother. Thank you for speaking out and having the courage to stand up to these tyrants. I filed in 2024 vs CZ and Binance. The corruption, incompetence and malice is unprecedented. I tried serving CZ while he was at the halfway house, LASD told my attorney he wasn’t there.. We called the bureau of prisons and they said he wasn’t there. I had to contact US Marshals to serve this clown. Bet he was surprised. Unfortunately NJ threw away the case for “lack of jurisdiction”.. We had to refile highlighting CZ’s Money Transmitter License” in NJ .. At the same time they USA let him go to Dubai and lost my serving and can only go against Binance in the Cayman Islands. Exploit this parasite.. I’m a year in the case.. Keep Fighting.. Binance is a third party parasite…
Doesn’t have to be one whale. What is stopping multiple entities from working together to manipulate the price? I doubt the SEC / FBI would be doing anything about it at this point. And that’s if it’s even happening in the USA. Could even be a nation state doing the manipulation for all we know. I can think of a couple countries that are pretty hard up for cash right now due to sanctions that would love nothing more than to fleece retail for all their chips. FWIW, I thought it was tinfoil hat shit at first but the more time I spent watching the tapes, the more I’ve realized this doesn’t look to be random. Then I learned about Livermore, wykoff, and how USA markets were manipulated in the early days before regulation. Those case studies look a helluva lot like BTC right now.
USA will f brick nation and gold will go down bitcoin will go to da moon :)
Every time I say this, Americans downvote me. Luckily for me, karma points are fucking worthless and I don't care. So let's try this again. The USA, is **NOT**, the entire fucking world. Bitcoin, **IS**, the entire fucking world. (Ok, that sounded dumb. It's available to the entire world) Bitcoin doesn't give two shits about the American FED rates. It's one of many many factors that play into the current valuation of Bitcoin.
There is no reason for BTC to drop every four years, as OP is proposing. What matters most is USA interest rates, Money Supply, favorable legislation, favorable administration..... all of which we have 100% right now. Past performance does not control the future...future conditions, obvioously control the future. We may obey the four year pattern next year, but that would be just coincidence
Bitcoin's volatility makes for a bad emergency fund. Putting capital that you might need at a moment's notice into a highly volatile asset like Bitcoin is... well, kind of insane. It sounds like your first focus should be building up a cash position ($10K-$50K, or a proportional amount relative to where you live, if not USA) for emergencies and other short-term needs. Boring, but rational and necessary. Then - and only then - are you in a position to store excess capital for the long term, of which Bitcoin is one possible option of many. But if your time horizon on your Bitcoin investment is anything less than 4-5 years (at least), then you're relying on timing and market sentiment to work in your favor, as opposed to the underlying value proposition of Bitcoin itself.
I don’t agree with that. The halving is only part of the picture. You can argue that the macro liquidity cycle which correlates to the USA election cycle is probably more significant… that is also 4 years as well
Bwaaaa haaaaa haaaaaa. BTC is always going to go up over the long term. Just wait till USA National debt hits $39 Trillion by March and the. 40 by June. The AA rating will drop to B, the bond market will tank and BTC will be worth a fortune.
Been to Dubai Not my cup of tea. Good for a holiday. Actually planning on going back to USA soon. Had my fun in Europe. Also better to just visit IMO.
The US is not alone in this situation, it printed vast amounts of money and issued lots of debt. There are only a few options 1. Debasement: standard option for all countries, to continue to spend more than taxes and productivity allow. 2. Do nothing and allow the money to filter throughout the world and take the hits as they come: despite people saying the USA is free market and capitalist...we aren't..we are managed and the government has not allowed a actual hard reset in a while without various Fed and monetary policies. 3. Default on the dent, eventually. Happens mostly in developing countries. Places like the USA, EU, Japan don't like this route as you tell them "hey sorry about that 129b that your central bank holds, we starting over _ Option 1 is always easiest and governments create the idea that inflation is like time...it's just some universal concept that happens.
Once you get to a certain point, you are simply stacking. I know bitcoin will be $1M one day. Is it 3 years or 10 years? Who knows. But we got past the FTX crash, and got the spot ETFs approved in USA. The rest is just slow falling dominos. I’ll start to spend my bitcoin when it’s zero tax, considered a currency, and widely used by common people. I honestly think we are less than 10 years away from that. It’s coming.
The easiest way possible would be to open an account at a major exchange for your country. Are you in the USA? Then that would be Coinbase (available in all states), or Kraken (most states, not NY or WA I believe). Outside of the us you may need other suggestions. Opening that account will take some effort. Trust me this is still the easiest way, but yes it’s a huge pain. The laws will require you to do identity verification, address verification, employment information, connect bank accounts, and so on. This is done once. But now for the actually easy part. You buy the crypto on your new account, and then you can withdraw it. You can withdraw it directly to the other party’s address which they can provide you. Or, be careful, if you are paying someone who is located in another country or sanctioned area then you will want to withdraw to your own mobile wallet first to avoid funds being frozen. I like CakeWallet for this but again you can ask around for other opinions.
I don’t even live in USA, but Europe 🤣 I have only part of investment in usd due to weak currency… but ok, think what you want crypto sect boy ;)
M2, the end of QT (QE usually starts shortly afterwards), the extended ISM/ business cycle. Also. the 4 year cycle will likely be extended. Look at the massive level of regulation and institutional sentiment change in the USA. The SEC will be dropping rates as of Wednesday December 10th at the FOMC meeting. The Americans want to be the leader in the crypto markets and they intend to run their economy "hot". Countries are adopting BTC and crypto, banks are going to adapt or suffer. The world has changed.
Speculation that this infant asset class will skyrocket once legalized in USA. Allegedly we are 30-90 days away. .. Ever notice all of the development, partnerships, acquisitions, federal agencies preparing all markets to go on chain?
The USA. Pretty simple. What I can't wrap my head around is how they have infinite crypto to sell for stocks
I agree. I guess the USA knows if they announce they are building an SBR. They know this will trigger global FOMO for the rest of the countries. So I like the idea for them to front run things to give them a chance to announce the SBR to commence the adoption after they have all their products and banks positioned well. Fingers crossed.
Thanks for your great thoughts. BTC will continue to exist as long as people are looking for hard money, energy is being produced, states are seeking geopolitical advantages and mining remains profitable. The FIAT system is increasingly faltering, especially recently (see the impact of QE during Covid). People are actively seeking security right now (see gold). In addition, there will be a new FED boss next year who will print a lot of money and delay the inevitable. As far as I know, Bitcoin is now permitted by Russia. Not forgetting Argentina and Turkey. China is reeling. In the USA, JP Morgan is taking it up as colleteral, Vanguard is now part of the ETFs with Böackrock, even though it was vehemently spoken out negatively for years. GeniusACT is signed, even if you can overturn it and criticize it further. If the Democrats take the lead, CBDCs must not be lost sight of (could become problematic). The realignment of the SEC is also beneficial. The natural selection of unprofitable miners is normal, where countries are forced to offer energy cheaper so that it is not outsourced. This means that the competition between China and the USA regarding AI remains intact. Of course, halvings, large companies that can afford them also play a role.
Well, they must be buying them because they are assuming people coming to the USA will be willing to pay the rent. This is just basic supply and demand. If they don't see demand holding up, then they wouldn't have been buying them. Besides, equilibrium will be reached at some point if no one is willing to pay that much on rent.
That's inflation plus supply and demand due to the number of people trying to come to the USA.
Why does it do this? Asia buys and USA dumps ?
No capital gains tax in the USA is all it’s gonna take. Wall Street will protect capital from inflation.

Where can you buy Lunc in the USA?
For decades the dollar was: - a store of value - the main currency of world debt - the main trading currency. Many speculate that the dollar will collapse because: - the American debt is enormous and to pay it the currency will have to be devalued - there is an ongoing trade war with China and a weak dollar helps exports - America is losing its central role, and at least two commercial "factions" are being created, one that gravitates around the USA, and one that gravitates around China. If the dollar were to collapse, go back to the needs I wrote at the beginning and you will see the solutions - Store of value: gold, silver, perhaps platinum. To a lesser extent also copper and other commodities, because other commodities depend a lot on the quantity of industrial production, and a dollar crisis would create a crisis in consumption and industrial production. So gold and silver appreciate, other commodities also depend on other factors. For example, China is reducing its dollar debt and buying gold in its place (a move which also serves to weaken the USA). Bitcoin? Bitcoin is a store of value, but it is a highly speculative asset that is very tied to the United States. Therefore, Eastern countries, if tensions were to amplify, could ban Bitcoin or limit it or propose other competing cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin would suffer there and then, although I think it would pay off big in the long run. - Main world debt currency: here the situation is clear: countries that align with China, and there are more and more of them, will buy Chinese bonds instead of US bonds as a store of value. Cryptocurrencies could be considered a valid alternative store of value, but only for small percentages (in proportion). Keep in mind that these are fast-growing economies and that China is initiating ten-year expansionary policies even in Africa. - Main trading currency: There will be many. Stablecoins replicate the value of the reference currency, so their diffusion depends on the diffusion of the reference currency. If the dollar is less popular, USDT and USDC will be less popular. Maybe there will be more Chinese stablecoins. While Bitcoin is not a very suitable currency for large commercial transactions: you cannot receive a payment of a very large sum in bitcoin knowing that its value could drop by 30% a couple of weeks later, keeping a balance sheet made up of transactions of this type would be very risky. - Stocks: if the dollar loses value (inflation), US company shares lose value there and then, but then recover quickly. See 2022. But if US trade slowly loses its primacy, US companies will lose customers and therefore long-term value. - Shares of companies involved in energy production: these usually cope with the decline in purchasing power of the currency.
USA innovates, China copies and the EU regulates. This shows they all are needed.
Musk literally had the highest individual tax bill in the history of the USA lol.
Hard to find a good burger, everything in USA contains corn and fructose syrup nowadays.
What more evidence is necessary to prove that the nation of the USA collectively decided to abort this crypto bull market in favor of their stocks?
If you’re in the USA, River has a zero fee DCA (after the first 7 days) and the spread is usually tiny, in the range of 0.15-0.35%. They’re also the only bitcoin only exchange the has proof of reserves. I can’t recommend them enough. Avoid Coinbase like d🍆ck cancer.
Where is 0.2% now? I’m UK. The best was probably Kraken (Pro) at 0.25% but it’s now 0.40% like Coinbase Advanced. OP, where are you country wise? In the USA you can access Strike and River, or in the UK you can get Strike. If you are considering DCA buying, you will very quickly get 0% fees with a recurring buy set up. You must research what the cheapest fee exchange is in your country. The poster here is correct, the more you cut your fees down, the more sats you accumulate.
Check out River if you’re in the USA. They publish proof of reserves. No fees on DCA. And you can send and receive via Bitcoin or lightning. They even pay the TX fee once a month!
It was a rhetorical question... Does anyone know how to read between the lines nowadays? You just explained the same thing I was referring to. The only way this system works is when people put trust in the hands of their government and "democracy". USD has social value... in a society... where people believe politics via democracy will allow things to change when they are dissatisfied... So they do not go to the streets with their guns and out power the government 10000:1... There is no intrinsic value, it relies on the illusion of democracy and people trusting that system. That is the only reason this entire flow you described works. It is an absolute and utter statistical fact that government does not have more power than the people it governs. Their power relies on people buying the illusion being sold to them. Or distractions... And not being aware of the properties of their economic system. This illusion relies on trust. That is the foundation. Everything else is a surface level activity ON TOP of that trust. Therefore, FIAT only has value because people trust it VIA their governmental system, believing the illusion that they can produce different results via voting and changing of government... not understanding the entire system is corrupt and bought on both sides. If everyone in USA went on the street with their guns and revolted against the government, this system would come to a halt within a week. And if an alternative solution was enforced, taxes would be collected via other assets not FIAT. Government can continue to collect FIAT because it has the value they themselves promise to the people, and we continue to swallow that story. You can describe the surface activity all you want but the foundation if it all is still blind trust. The same blind trust that gives Bitcoin value. Neither have INTRINSIC value, they have social value.
It could hit trillians of USD. All it takes is for the USA to be hot by a meteor completely destroying the dollar. Would that be good? No. Analysts have to take so many fucked up scenarios into consideration that their guesses don't really matter.
The world's poor/ working class/ small business using stablecoins are using IOUs and storing the value they generate in them. The US defaults and declares that the dollar is the new penny. 100 dollars will equal 1 "Trump" the new made in the USA CBDC and using any other currency is un-American.
USA is not the only country that has that access lol
he never said ACH, he said bank transfer. Here in Canada that means e-transfers and they are instant. The rest of the world has had good bank transfer systems for a very long time just like the USA is lagging behind in terms of still using the old fashion bills and still not standardizing restaurant POS machines brought to the table rather than your card being taken out of your sight/control for it. The USA can always join the 21st century for monetary transactions if it wants to.
Gas fees can affect your taxes in certain situations 1. Buying fees will increase your cost basis Ex. Buying $5000 BTC +$50 Gas will make your cost basis $5050 2. Selling fees will reduce your proceeds Ex. Selling $15000 - $100 gas will make your proceeds $14900 3. Self transfer does not reduce taxes. However, the gas you pay in crypto is a tiny taxable event. You technically sold the small amount of crypto coin you used for gas at its USD value at that moment. 4. Your final gain formula: Gain = fee adjusted sale price - fee adjusted taxable gains In the example, $14900 - $5050 = $9850 taxable gains You need to track each and every fee and trade. Keep transaction IDs + USD values at FMV , dates of transactions for your records. This is a non-negotiable and very tedious work. That's why using a crypto tax tool that is IRS complaint and made for the USA is strongly recommended. FIFO is the default lot selection if you didn't track lots. Specific if is fine if you can prove the lots. 5. Every disposal, including crypto to crypto swaps goes on form 8949 and schedule D Final note - stay consistent and leave clear notes on how you treat buy fees , sell fees and transfer fees so everything lines up if anyone reviews it
Bro is asking for a “source” lol… 😂 I swear The USA needs to search for Oil and weapons of mass destruction in every country all of the world.
If you use today's numbers to make this determination, there are a few "givens" you'll have to accept. First, in 2025 the global money supply is about $142 trillion (in USD). Bitcoin's market cap changes daily, but let's just say it is $1.83 trillion. This would make BTC's price $87,142. If everything remained the same, and the world hits the USA's target of 2% inflation per year, then in 2525, the world's money supply would be $2.833 quintillion ($2,833,832,817,234,380,000.00). If Bitcoin's market cap were the same percentage in 2525 as it is in 2025, the BTC's market cap would be $36.5 quadrillion, making each Bitcoin worth $1.739 billion (in 2525). Now if Bitcoin becomes to world's reserve currency and replaces all of the world's currencies, and inflation stays at 2%, Bitcoin's price could be $135 billion per coin, which is $2.8 quintillion / 21 million. However, if BTC does become to world's reserve currency, you can't "inflate" it so deflation may occur, which means the price of Bitcoin could remain fairly constant and prices across the board could decline. But in 500 years, who knows if humans will even roam the Earth anymore.
Most people here don't understands this. There is world beyond USA !? What you say now !
Not saying fiat goes away. Trump is clearly doing immense damage to USA softpower. Im saying its relevance as reserve currency is going to fade. Countries will naturally look to diversify away from crazy.
I love how everyone except the USA gets to have tariffs. Like we are supposed to support the whole world. It's time the leeches started carrying their own weight.
There are widespread **accusations from the crypto community that JPMorgan is attempting to sabotage MicroStrategy** (now named Strategy). These accusations center around the bank's public warnings regarding index delisting risks for MicroStrategy, which some claim were timed to trigger a market sell-off. Overview of Accusations * **Index Delisting Warnings:** JPMorgan analysts issued reports warning that MicroStrategy, due to its high concentration of Bitcoin (over 50% of its assets), risks being removed from major equity indices like the MSCI USA and Nasdaq 100. The bank estimated that such a delisting could trigger billions of dollars in forced selling by passive index funds. * **Timing Concerns:** Critics argue the timing of these reports was suspicious. One specific 42-day-old document was allegedly "recycled" and widely circulated in late November 2025, just as the crypto market experienced a downturn. This led to a significant drop in MicroStrategy's stock price and a broader crypto market crash
What does this look like to you? USA buys sats and fixes the exchange rate?
The buyers are the problem now? Not all the leverage players? Not the entire nation of the USA selling daily? What's the logic here?

Here's the reason to ignore TA. It's not because TA is wrong per se, it's just that anyone who actually ususes it, and knows what they're talking about, use it for risk management, and not for predictions. TA can help identify where price movements have a higher probability of occurring but the probability is never 100% Anyone with half of a brain also knows that headlines always beat charts too. You can do a thousand hours of TA, but if the USA decides to go all in on a reserve, the price will go up, and if the 10 year yield on the Yen spikes the price will go down, which is exactly what happened when it just dropped 4k.
Sunday nights in USA is the worst time. The East has woke up and sold first. Every time like now. It's 8am in China. 11am in Australia. Don't trip. Always check Sundays this time. 11.8 billion ● Record Breaking Black Friday ● spent by consumers. - April 10th 77k - October 10th 125k Buy Bitcoin.
Sunday nights in USA is the worst time. The East has woke up and sold first. Every time like now its 8am there. 11am in Australia. Don't trip. Always check Sundays this time.
Of course it dumps like no tomorrow everytime anything USA opens
I’m going to ignore the catastrophizing about the USA. People have been betting against America forever but there is a reason the Industrial Revolution started here, the internet revolution and now the Ai revolution. The American dynasty may not last forever but I surely would bet on it lasting through this generation. Furthermore standard currency store is a nonsense set of words. Those are two different things. If you expect it to be currency then it will not be a store of value. If your currency is deflationary, as bitcoin is, that would be very bad economically.
Because right now there is no real pressure for new purchases: It is a long weekend in the USA (Thanksgiving), the traditional markets are closed and the spot volume is at its lowest level of the year. ETF flows slow down Thursday-Friday, they return tomorrow, Monday. The bulls who wanted to position themselves before 100k already did so; now they are sitting on top of unrealistic gains (+40% in 3 weeks). Nobody wants to buy higher with so much profit to be made. The bears are almost completely liquidated (OI in futures at April 2024 levels). Result: dry liquidity and no one presses the “buy” button until someone blinks or fresh flows come in on Monday/Tuesday. 94k remains the key resistance. If the ETFs open strongly on Monday, it is easy to break. If not, boring range or small correction heals up to 88-90k.
I get why it’s bad but then it’s good too. So many big accounts are based in a country that isn’t the USA lol. And they played a major role influencing some people’s opinion
you guys with HYSA are so lucky, where I live it is 1% MAX - TAX on first cent !!! local stock market is corrupted, getting an international brokerage account, again, 10-15% tax in USA + 25-35% tax when I would bring it back to home country
I just want to validate you here. I had a very similar experience in Canada with RBC. It seems that most traditional banks (at least outside of the USA) are pretty antagonistic towards bitcoin. Or at least with a more charitable interpretation, all these bankers seem to be taught that BTC is a scam and to dissuade their clients from buying it.
I'd say anything that is PoW is going to have a catastophic end. The moment someone is able to use a quantum computer and targets crypto, it's over. PoS may stay longer, but I think, in people's minds, they are inextricably linked. So ETH, et al, will probably come down too. I'd say we've got 4yrs..... then again, if this country continues down this path of absolute and utter stupidity with zero thought to the long term investment, both politically and economically, bitcoin is going to the the least of our problems (both in the USA and abroad. consequences cascade)
There's literally people eating dogs that could not leave I highly doubt that anyone can do worse than that and the only thing the puppet has to do is to allow USA invest in the Oil company of Venezuela and that's it
Sorry meant "it's hard to not spend" esp where I am at in life. Yes student loans are atrocious. That's what makes it hard. Although HODL'ing forever could outpace the 7% interest rate the loans are at (standard for USA as they are from the government:( ). Still a good mentality to have to try to just hold. It sounds you should get BTC or DCA and not think about it at all for 10-15 years and live life. That's hard to do for me as well but seems best.
That's brilliant.It's cool that you are willing to work toward car/house and save BTC. That implies you have to have some money to afford lifestyle. I like that you will hold out for better though. A lot of people I think would sell earlier but then they lose out. So it is "greed" in the sense it is "long term gambling." The longer you hold the more it is worth (most likely). I imagine this holds through until retirement age, around 65 in the USA people will cash out.
A country like USA is doing way worse things without anyone doing anything about it. Stop dreaming.
>Bitcoin is the first time our generation has been given an asset that isn’t already hyper inflated. Yeah guys it's literally a baby with \*checks notes\* $1,809,241,914,421 in market capitalization even though it doesn't have any industry behind it to support its intrinsic value. That will be our ticket to financial freedom and we'll all be rich! At 500k we will see almost one third of the USA's GDP so that's at least something. With some potential of course.
Post is by: nitroacid411 and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/btc/comments/1p8lwe9/black_friday_bull_or_bear/ I've been wondering if anyone has gathered the same information in the past week?

Ah ok the global M2 is up 8%, not the USA's M2. Since January 2025 bitcoin is down 2.74%
Daily reminder that this failed cycle is **ENTIRELY AND THE FAULT OF THE USA**
That‘s stupid. Nothing cracks. They rule the USA as Kings and can do as they please
Everyone needs to be PROSECUTED according the the USA constitution!
So your argument is that bitcoin is worthless because the USA won't accept it as payment for taxes? Or maybe we extrapolate that to 'btc is worthless because it doesn't do all of the things fiat does'? I would respond with that it is a different financial technology altogether. The economy is large, diverse, and complex and there are many mechanisms at play. Bitcoin functionally fills the niche of being an immutable ledger. That is its "real" worth. A service. P.S. That's literally not what the word "literally" means.
Impossible to say it really depends on your situation and federal tax regulation. Some European country don't have an exit tax meaning that if you leave the country and establish in another country, you'd pay your taxes there. Some other places like USA or Canada or France I believe, will charge you an exit tax when you leave the country so it's impossible to legally avoid getting taxed on it.
Post is by: legendary_bitcoin and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1p8o40x/impact_of_conflicts_on_crypto_market/ Whenever wars happen, crypto experience sharp liquidity for some moments! Recently trump announced land operations is being planned in Venezuela. USA is key player in crypto, and Venezuela is also emerging as potential crypto market with rise of popularity in crypto. So if land aggressions happens what situation is likely to be seen: crypto selloff or sudden buying pressure? I think most probable answer is crypto sell off! I am new so don't have much experience in trading can anyone tell what will be likely outcome based on past experiences. So that I can plan my trading strategy accordingly for any such conditions. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Si je peux me permettre, moi j'ai 28 ans bientôt 29. J'ai commencé à investir vers 2021. Je suis toujours entrain d'apprendre, chaque jour. La seule chose que je peux partager c'est qu'aujoourd'hui je suis en profit. Est-ce que j'ai encaissé vous vous demandez ? Eh bien la réponse c'est non. Je n'ai pas "encaissé" les pofits, mais le bassin que j'ai me permet d'avoir des horizons plus larges pour commencer à m'investir ailleurs. Une chose que j'ai compris avoir lu quelques livres (Père Riche, Autouroute Millionaire, Fils Babylone, Psych de l'argent...) c'est que dans la vie si tu veux réussir pour de vrai, tu dois prendre le risque. Ce risque, corrélé à la chance évidemment est comme son nom l'indique, un "risque". Si je perd tout je suis cuit. En fait presque, tant que je suis en vie, que je gagne de l'argent et que j'ai du crédit à disposition eh bien rien ne m'arrête. En tout cas, c'est plus facile de le dire que de le vire j'en conviens. Pas plus tard qu'hier j'ai fait une transaction sur blockchain de 2k et je croyais avoir fait une erreur j'avais envi de me suicider, mais cette fois c'est bien parc que c'est une erreur stupide de ma part que j'aurais pu éviter à 100% en étant plus patient. Pour revenir au Bitcoin, c'est un peu différent. Je le vois comme l'opportunité d'un siècle, l'opportunité d'investissement. Si je perd, d'autres perdent et encore plus que moi, car je ne considère pas avoir quelque chose d'important je ne suis pas un "whale". Bref, l'avenir semble prometteur. Je ne sais pas si je suis séduit plus par l'idée, par l'euphorie, par l'excitation que ça me procure (je vous rassure, je suis très conservateur pas du tout le profil gambler), mais quand même, je remet constamment en question mes choix et mes décisions. Je continue à croire que c'est un bon investissement. Je ne vois pas en quoi ça ne l'est pas. Steve Jobs à tout mis sur Apple, idem pour les autres philantrope. De plus, étant un étudiant en histoire, je comprend une chose dans cette vie: Seule les voleurs s'en sortent! Eh oui, il ne faut pas être naïf les frérot, Van Der Built et co "les Barons Voleurs" de la moitié du 19e siècle, au Armaturges francais des premières plantations, rien n'est bâti et ne fonctionne sur la "morale". Ca c'est pour la société, jamais pour l'élite. Bref, je ne veux pas m'égarer du sujet car je peux sauter du coq à l'âne comme vous le voyez. J'avais simplement envi de partager mon point de vue sur ce que je considère être une chance en or , la Ruée vers l'Or du 21i siècle. Elle coche toutes les cases. Technologie Blockchain (on s'en ligne vers la tech, pas les pierres). Secondo, indexer de la monnaie papier à l'Or ca ne fonctinone pas, demandez à vos grands-parents aux USA ils vous l'expliqueront mieux que moi. Ce système est désuet dès lors qu'IL EST POSSIBLE DE CRÉER DE L'ARGENT. Personne ne peut calculer mathémathique, rapidement, fluidement le nombre d'or corrélé à son papier. Mais avec une .equation matthématique incorruptible, A PRIORI, soit la transaction passe soit elle ne passe pas. J'écoutais un asiatique parler sur youtube, il à fait une analogie tout à fait intéressante, il a dit: Le Bitcoin d'aujourd'hui et le SP500 d'hier. C'est incroyablement... vrai . Pourquoi? Allez jettez un coup d'oeuil sur le graphique Trading View de SP ou de n'importe quelle action. C'est n'import quoi? Je ne vois pas du profit. Je vois de la dette. Je vois un dollar inflater, c'est tout ce que ca représente. Une monnaie-papier qui ne vaut rien. Alors mon objectif à moi c'est de posséder des commodités dans una venir proche. Pour s'y faire j'ai besoin de capital. Je ne peux pas épargner 100k en 5 ans de travail acharné. C'est quasiment impossible pour un mec lambda. Or, l'investissement devient inébvitable, malheureusmenet et malencoutreusement devrais-je dire car c'est les concours de ciconstances qui nous determinent à être la aujourd'hui en 2025, une cinquantaine d'année suite à 1971. Bref, bref bref, les frérot, je vous conseille d'étudier l'aversion à la perte, le risque et de plongez. Le pire qui arrive vous perdez. Mais sinon, les gains sont juste fabuleux et on va pas se mentir, personne n'a envi d'être riche à 67 ans, avec un diabète un cancer diagnostiquer et une pénurie de médecins dans des hopitaux bondés et un traffic insupportable sur la route. Il faut profitez aussi de sa jeunesse, de sa santé de ses amis de ses relations. Donc, ménagez le chou et la chèvre n'est pas facile et je pense que le Bitcoin va simplement servir de multiplicateur. Bref, je pourrais écrire encore longtemps, j'espère ne pas vous avoir découragé, ni encouragé. Vous êtes maitres de vos décisions, mais la vie est courte et vous ne voulez pas savoir que vous auriez pu mais que vous ne l'aviez pas fait.
Crypto Tax Crash Course (USA) — Easy & Clear Here’s the quick version of how crypto taxes actually work in the U.S.: 1. Selling or swapping = taxable. Anything that counts as disposing of crypto triggers taxes. Even swapping BTC → ETH is treated like selling BTC. These all go on Form 8949 as gains/losses. 2. Income-style crypto gets taxed the moment you receive it. If you’re earning tokens through things like: • Staking • Mining • Airdrops • Referral bonuses • Play-to-earn • Yield farming / liquidity rewards The IRS taxes them at their fair value the second they hit your wallet. Then when you eventually sell them? That’s a second taxable event. 3. Moving crypto between your own wallets is NOT taxable. Just make sure you mark it as a self-transfer so your tax software doesn’t treat it as a sale. 4. NFT taxes are basically the same as crypto. • Buying an NFT with ETH/SOL = taxable, because you’re “spending” crypto. • Buying with USD/stablecoins = not taxable. • Selling an NFT = capital gain/loss. • Minting is usually not taxable unless you immediately receive something with clear value. • Royalties = ordinary income. 5. DeFi taxes can get messy. Here's the simple version: • Swaps on DEXes = trades → taxable. • Providing liquidity (when you get an LP token) = considered a trade → taxable. • Removing liquidity = also a trade → taxable. • Rewards from pools/staking/nodes = income at FMV the day you get them. • Bridging is usually non-taxable unless the bridge gives you a new wrapped token. 6. Cost basis is everything. Your cost basis is what you originally paid for each asset. If you lose track of it, the IRS may treat your basis as $0 — which means they think all of it is profit. That can lead to a huge tax bill. 7. Please use a tax tool. A proper crypto tax tool will: • Auto-sync exchanges + wallets • Track cost basis correctly • Identify self-transfers • Handle DeFi + NFTs • Generate Form 8949 and full reports It saves you hours of cleanup — even if you only trade occasionally. Crypto is fun when you’re trading. It’s only stressful when tax time comes and nothing is tracked. Tax season isn’t the enemy. Bad records are. Hope this helps someone. Happy filing.
>My source is their own ledger: They unlock1b tokens a …….. No, I meant what is your source that what is relocked is what people won’t buy, where is your source for that claim? That what is relocked is ‘what nobody will buy’? It’s BS >You’re buying from a whale who pre mined 80% of the total tokens. If you don’t see my point you never will. Ripple did not premine XRP, XRP was minted nearly 2 years before Chris Larsen came around and started up Ripple Labs. Ripple has never distributed XRP, I have never bought a coin from Ripple, neither have you, Ripple does not sell to you or I, they do not sell to retail. >It’s decentralized but they can move 50m coins OTC?? Have no price action on the ledger and it doesn’t exist. If it wasn’t decentralized they would need permission to move 50m coins, but since it is a decentralized network and there is no central authority over the network and XRP, yes anyone can move coins OTC, but the coins exist, but no price action exists because that movement was never on an orderbook, never on an exchange, I could send you 1 million coins to your wallet, it wouldn’t affect price. >Do you even hear yourself. Like cmon bro. You’re protecting a whale of a company for no reason Protect them from what? Why would I be against Ripple? They were gifted their XRP in exchange for a commitment to develop and foster growth on the XRPL, Ripple didn’t sell XRP to fund it’s startup, they had angel investors and venture capital investment rounds, Google invested in Ripple’s startup, so did Andreessen-Horowitz, and many other very smart money people, if they bet big on Ripple do you think I am not going to notice and follow their lead?? Or I should listen to you tell me I am protecting a whale. Come on man….. don’t YOU see? >while I get freshly minted BTC from clean energy. Unless you are mining yourself with 100% renewable free energy and have minted a single coin for yourself, this is not reality, the closest you could ever get to this fantasy of yours is if the coins you had were minted in Georgia where the whole country’s electrical grid is hydro. >You’re better off mining BTC than buying XRP. But you’ll never see it that way. I first mined BTC nearly 13 years ago, I have seen much, BTC used to be like the change in your car’s center console, I now hold zero BTC, BCH yes and still buy, but no more BTC for me. >Pre mined coins minted from thin air, that you’re buying at 20000000% increase from a company lol. That’s what you choose. I am not buying XRP from Ripple, again they don’t sell to retail and Ripple does not set the price, the market does. >When I buy BTC, I buy from miners, who used energy to get rewarded. No, you are buying sats that were mined and sold to an exchange >My money is being dispersed amongst millions of node validators. No, your money is going to the exchanges >And I also hold ETH, the ETH foundation 100% tells you when, how much, and who is buying the ETH. Hard stop right there. The naivety of complaining about pre-mined when you support a coin that came from an ICO, a coin whose value came from an initial release, a foundation that was funded by bad actors on the world stage, that’s some fraud right there. Go and support the Ethereum Foundation, I don’t, why would I support the chain whose very beginning has deep close ties to foreign adversaries of the USA, why would I support the Ethereum Foundation whose leader flew to North Korea and met with their leaders to help them bypass US sanctions by using ETH, and when he flew back and touched American soil he was charged, he was convicted in court and he was sent to prison, why would I support that? Why would I support an ICO dreamed up by Steven Nerayoff? @TheBoringSleuth has uncovered onchain exactly who and what was behind Ethereum’s first wallets, no thanks. >Also did you notice that they didn’t drop $2b worth of liquidity onto the market during 1 month? All year the foundation has maybe sold ETH for $100m Ok, and why would they? Ethereum is not a chain used for remittance and ETH is not a bridge currency, it would make zero sense for them to do that, but what you don’t understand obviously is why a remittance chain and it’s native bridge currency would do that, you do not understand the deep pools of liquidity needed for a remittance chain. >Ripple sells 200k+ coins a month valued at $2 each. Forcing $2b of liquidity onto bag holders when they unlock 1b XRP a month. Onto bagholders? Do you even understand what 200k coins represents on the daily volume chart for XRP? Dude, you don’t, because if you did you’d scratch your head wondering why you thought it was ‘so much’ liquidity ‘dumped’, it’s not, plain and simple, and that 200k is nothing compared to the daily volume even if the monthly escrow release hits the market all on the same day, BUT IT DOESN’T…… because Ripple does not sell to retail, Ripple does not programmatically sell to exchanges, the onchain numbers don’t lie, your assumptions are regurgitated words you don’t understand because if you did you would see through them. Respectfully, your arguments are moot, understand the framework and it will make sense to you why what you are saying is foolhardy. >Ripple is scummy for not disclosing any transaction compared to other foundations. My dude, they release a quarterly XRP report with all these numbers, they have been doing this going on 8 years. You don’t know what you don’t know.

If the seed code inside works I probably wouldn’t move the BTC for many a while. I’m pretty rich myself outside of crypto anyway like $10m+ type, so I’d spend a year or 2 planning what I want to do. Too many consequences from tax, being targeted by USA China Russia cia kgb ccp, entire underworld after me, will be being exposed tank the market because I’m a nobody, would I be accused of theft etc. So no I wouldn’t touch it for awhile and map things out very carefully

Used Grok to answer your question since I didn't want to type the entire thing out myself: Bitcoin mining in 2025 is basically solving complex math puzzles to validate transactions and earn newly minted BTC plus fees. You do this with specialized hardware called ASICs (Application-Specific Integrated Circuits) that crunch the SHA-256 hash function nonstop. The network difficulty is extremely high, so solo mining with anything you can buy as an individual is effectively impossible—you’d win a block maybe once every few centuries. **What to buy (realistic home/retail level):** * A modern ASIC miner: Bitmain Antminer S21, S21 Pro, or MicroBT Whatsminer M60S series (200–350 TH/s, 3,500–6,000 W power draw). Expect to pay $2,000–$6,000 new, less on secondary market. * Cheap electricity (under 6–8¢/kWh) or you’ll lose money. Good cooling/ventilation (these things are loud and hot). * A decent power supply (PSU) if not included, and a mining-friendly wallet. **Pool or solo?** Always join a pool. Pools combine thousands of miners’ hash power and pay you tiny fractions of every block proportionally (e.g., Foundry USA, AntPool, F2Pool, ViaBTC). Solo mining today is like playing the lottery with one ticket while pools give you steady, small payouts (think salary vs. hoping to hit Powerball). Even with one S21, a good pool will pay you $5–20/day before electricity costs (at \~7¢/kWh you might break even or slightly profit, depending on BTC price). Bottom line: Unless you have access to very cheap power (<5¢/kWh) and can handle noise/heat, mining at home is usually not profitable in 2025. Most people buy Bitcoin directly instead.
You are right. USA system is way better. If you have money you can get any healthcare you want, if you don’t, just die, who cares anyway. Oh, but make sure you have pocket money because if you rely on an insurance they can just deny your claim and let you die.

That's a market cap of 1.155 Quadrillion USD or almost 40x the GDP of the USA. That would make so many people Billionaires/Trillionaires, there just can't be enough money to keep the buying pressure. Don't think that's even near possible.
Then you don’t know what rich is. “Rich” in the USA, in Dubai, etc is a completely different number to “rich” in a third world country.
If Bitcoin is “confiscation-resistant” How does the USA have $14 Billion in seized Bitcoin? https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c70jw436n0yo
Being honest, I don’t think BTC can replace gold. The USA alone has trillions of dollars worth. Other countries are rapidly buying gold too. The two will co-exist in our lifetime
Really? Wtf Seguridad Social then? Spain spends on healthcare about 16-17% of budget, comparing to the same 17-18% in ‘evil’ USA and 20-22% in UK. It is fucking myth about god-level fucking healthcare in Spain.
Shouldn't have taken you 4 days to come up with a wrong stat... The CPI was never at 10% in his term, but it raised to 9.1% (June 2022) due to a literal global supply chain crunch in the midst of a global pandemic. Note that I've literally commented on this too, I'm talking about the way Bitden got the USA out of this situation and made the it one of the countries with the best recovery (when Biden left office other large countries were still around 4-5% inflation, the USA was around 3%). So again, more of the same, pragmatic and working policies. Not isolationism and deporting a lot of the people working to make your economy great just because they are brown.
ACH transfers are slow because of the transaction reversal risk. This is a problem specific to the USA. FedNow was supposed to enable instant bank transfers, and retire ACH, but the Fed is deliberately slow and restrictive about approving banks to participate in FedNow. What are they afraid of? Customer convenience?
The old system is dying. If the USA can get their shit together and get congress to pass the clarity bill, then we might stand a chance. Regardless, all you need to do is store your own BTC on a cold wallet. Memorize your 24 words as a backup ONLY.
8% has been thrown around in every sub. Copy paste. The fed is shooting for at least .50 if not higher. USA is pumping the economy right now with Black Friday and holidays events. What are you guys scared of?
1. The world is a big place. 2. Most of it is corrupt in one way or another. 3. Even the USA, under current admin, said they weren't gonna care much about crypto theft. 4. Just because you CAN, doesn't mean you DO. The botton line is that no one really cares if your 3m life savings, most of which you "made" in Crypto, ends up in Myanmar. No one is gonna assign a crew to get it. Also, imagine how hard it might be to trace to the first actual people involved....then assume they moved it a few times. I have had stuff stolen from me and they found the perps but the 2nd person in line said "I didn't know it was stolen" and I never got it back.
But...I can't purchase anything with BC, cash is accepted anywhere in the USA.
Yes I do on a daily basis, here its better to transact in BTC as our currency has been devalued massively by the government, if I hold onto my currency I can barely afford food month to month on top of living expenses. BTC is a ray of hope for us, I know its not the same in the USA because dollar is still valuable there, but for us we have no choice.
Calm down. The longs are up. The patience of rekt sellers have realized the cycle will repeat. We have some big moves being made in finance, thus ignoring a China deal, fed cut, 3 trillion crypto market. What have you noticed in the past 1 to 7 days? Upswing are good signs. How much money is enough for you personally? Are you holding long to cash out or are you using it for a loan or collateral? Pay attention to the past week. Black friday this week. Lots of commerce happening in the USA. People will buy. There's just too much money and cash.
