probably because of the speculation that inevitably follows questioning WHY they were moved
If you are on a browser look to your right, there is the Community Bookmarks, but I'll give you a piece of unsolicited advice, the question shouldn't be How do you buy Bitcoin, the question you should be asking yourself and this is what doing your own research is for, the question you should be asking yourself is WHY do you want to buy Bitcoin, that answer will ultimately lead you to the HOW.
adding a crypto coin in to the mix is for the following reasons: Because its Safer. current systems have high rates of failure Because its Faster. it can take weeks to transfer between some currencies that require multiple forex currency exchanges Because its Cheaper. Sending XRP is fractions of a penny/buy/sell rates on cc exchanges are a few pips. Because its more visible/available. Bank not open 24/7? Other country is in a different time zone? want to know where your money is sitting call the third bank in the chain? Because it unlocks a huge amount of dormant money sitting in Nostro/Vostro accounts all over the world(part of the reason its costs a lot). This money can now be put to use. Now why XRP? Currently the USD is the standard bridging currency. Obviously using one nations currency is a huge benefit to that one nation at the expense of others. Using all nations currency is just way to hard/complex and risky. Use gold? it used to be but it costs a lot to store and move. XRP can move value in 4 seconds, there is less volatility in the 4 seconds than in the settling of fiat to fiat over days, this is why with ripplenet Ripple absorbs the volatility not the customer. Sure nearly any other CC could be used in its place. BUT XRP has been designed from the ground up by BTC devs over a decade ago when they could already see the issues with BTC. It has a very wealthy company behind it, there is no other crypto currency out there backed by a company with offices(15) in all the major global financial centres. Over a thousand employees, 100s of billions of dollars in assets, and the right connections to sit down with governments and central banks all over the world. Just look at who is on the board of Ripple. Ripple spend 100s of millions on grants to encourage growth on the XRPL. IMO THIS IS WHY XRP.
Insert “WHY IS IT GOING DOWN?!?!” Cat meme here
I laugh at those who is so short sighted that they had to sell their bitcoin and tell all sorts of justification for selling BUT they will be start stacking again when the dust settles... i mean wtf? Why would you start stacking BTC unless its the best asset and in that case WHY WOULD YOU SELL IT???
I type d that tyitle twice because I knew it was wrong the first time. Still wrong. w/e. GF’s out at a bar, BTC crashing WHY AM I HOLDING? I’LL TELL YOU WHY. It’s because I’m a bad trader and I KNOW I’M A BAD TRADER. Yeah you good traders can spot the highs and the lows pit pat piffy wing wong wang just like that and make a millino bucks sure no problem bro. Likewise the weak hands are like OH NO IT’S GOING DOWN I’M GONNA SELL he he he and then they’re like OH G-D when the SMART traders who KNOW WHAT THEY’RE DOING buy back in but you know what? I’m not part of that group. When the traders buy back in I’m already part of the market capital so GUESS WHO YOU’RE CHEATING day traders NOT ME~! Those taunt threads saying “OHH YOU SHOULD HAVE SOLD” YEAH NO. I SHOULD HAVE SOLD. I SHOULD HAVE SOLD MOMENTS BEFORE EVERY SELL AND BOUGHT MOMENTS BEFORE EVERY BUY BUT YOU KNOW WHAT NOT EVERYBODY IS AS COOL AS YOU. You only sell in a bear market if you are a good day trader or an illusioned noob. The people inbetween hold. In a zero-sum game such as this, traders can only take your money if you sell. so i’ve had some whiskey. actually on the bottle it’s spelled whisky. w/e. sue me. (but only if it’s payable in BTC)
The question is WHY has it grown so much? Max Keiser has the answer.
APPRECIATE all the members who answer noob questions like mine. The gems on these threads are great, learning what NOT to do especially. Trying to bounce around different subs, but obviously whichever one I'm in, will champion their coin. I have seen many say "dont invest now, wait until the bear market" ... while also seeing lots of "this train is just starting" sentiments ... which makes me think WHY NOT jump in again. Why leave 2k sitting in savings when it could 2x -5x in 6-12mths right ? Biggest question is, would you STILL go heavy BTC in any investment regardless of time, or shoot for more for ADA, XRP types with "more room to grow" (I put in quotes cuz thats not based on my own thoughts)
Don’t DCA like other people are suggesting. Most important: LEARN ABOUT WHAT BITCOIN IS AND WHY IT IS THE BEST MONEY EVER INVENTED. Put everything in it as soon as possible. But also hold it in Bitcoin forever or AT LEAST for 5-10 years. If you expect Bitcoin to go up forever (most of the time the case is:) the earlier you put your money in it, the more it will appreciate. You can try to time the market and do it another way or you might be afraid to put it all in now, then i would suggest (assuming you want to put 200k total into bitcoin) : 100k now. Rest of the 100k devided over the next 3 years (2,8k per month)
NEVER. Soon (2-4 Years) there will "safe" institutions/ banks/Crypto Co. paying you a yield on your bitcoin. (5-7%) WHY would you ever sell the hardest asset in the world? I guarantee you-that no matter what you sell it at.....you will kick yourself when it goes 10x higher. Wake-up....you possess Generational Wealth. When you pass...you will move your bitcoin into a trust...and your children...and their children...and their children etc....will live like kings off the yield.
Post entirely made to generate fomo, check. Post completely devoid of details of WHY the coin/token is useful, check. Suspect username.. cashnsplash.. oh yeah, check. Im going to pass on this pump and dump.
TRADING: Ok so, lets talk about that part. All indicators are an illusion, they can only tell you what HAS happens, not whats going to happen. Bitcoin does what Bitcoin does and nothing is going to tell you what is Going to happen next. However there is some truth in the fact that lots of Traders use the same types of Indicators to time their trades, thinking the same types of things… So for me, I enjoy “Bollinger Bands” at 1000pips above & below current price and a 90day moving average. To tell when Bitcoin my be overheated or undervalued. I only use 20% of my stack as something to do in the evenings, after ive actually seen where the movement is on a daily time frame. Choosing 1hr-15-5min indication for my buy points. The rest 80% I just hodl. I use a cryto profits calculator to help me see what kind of profits id make before I do it. I recommend you spend time getting to know the Trendline, get a sense of the movement of Bitcoins, its ebbs and flows. Enjoy getting to know it. Youll probably get fixated on it like we all do, checking on it every 5mins. Its wonderful… honest! Then when youre done with that, just install a “price alert” app and set your amounts, and relax knowing you phone will do it for you, and will let you know when those prices are reached hahaha. BITCOIN: Something to consider. The more you find out about Bitcoin, the more valuable it gets. So the reason WHY we Bitcoin, is that it isn’t just about trying to get Rich on perceived profits… this is about Preserving the “Value” of your hard work and efforts. What I mean by that is, you are effectively placing your savings into a “Time Capsule”, so that when and IF you choose to withdraw it and enter back into our current Fiat purchasing system, you’ll be doing so at same value you stored it away at - regardless at which Shit Fiat currency you use choose to measure it by. Its not that Bitcoin gains in profits, its that everything else around it losing value against it in my opinion. You are still early on this regardless, theres not even 1% of the total wealth of the planet invested in on it yet and more adoption will follow. Most people look backward and think "oh shit if only i had bought at 36k, now look, its 77k!!" But some are looking forwards and thinking "Doesnt matter about the past, the current price is only 77k, and thats where im at now... and i expect it to rise within a minimum x2 over the next 4yr cycle, so I better DCA and Hodl onto it". Bitcoin rewards those who are patient it seems. So continue to learn more, ask questions. Folks here in our Bitcoin Group are very helpful, and ive learned a lot from them over the years (thank you everyone) Take care, Enjoy the ride and Hodl on This is the way…

> I can barely save money in one currency and now I feel I have to GAMBLE in two currencies to feed my family. The first three rules of investing are: Diversification Diversification Diversification YOu say you bought Bitcoin because you FOMOed. This isn't really a good reason to invest you have to understand WHY you bought Bitcoin; buying it out of FOMO suggests that you do not understand the WHY. If you understood the why, you would have some idea of what else to buy
Make sure you have a WHY for the life efforts that you make. People who chase money only are empty. Those who have unearned finances often take without giving. give. and don't forget to play.
**JUST Tax the energy universally, what the fuck???? WHY THE FUCK???**
Do we know WHY this just decided to bounce tonight?!
You just presented the argument, of WHY you should hodl....
WHY arent we pinning the daily????
No. But $500 each month to get you used to the fluctuations. As much as most of us believe we are in a very bullish phase, if you put all $2K in today and tomorrow it dropped 30% would you panic and sell at a loss? It may even be best for you to study Bitcoin a lot before you invest so you understand WHY you want BTC.
I already bought twice since last week. WHY YOU KEEP WAITING!!!
You can do a quick look through the Chainlink ecosystem page or the Chainlink Twitter page is constantly posting about all of their partnerships and rollous. If you want a better idea of exactly WHY everyone's choosing Chainlink in the TradFi sector, give this video a full watch. https://youtu.be/66fFBNDGEn4?si=CcmYwlZt02iIy6d6 Trump also announced he was rolling out a US crypto exchange and his son who is in charge of crypto relations posted today that it'll be using Chainlink to do so. It's inevitable. The market will catch up eventually. If argue next to BTC, Chainlink is the most undervalued asset in the entire space right now.
Forget about other people, I wanna ask you WHY did you sell when price went down?
If you bought without asking what you are buying and WHY the price is increasing, you need to do some reading. Asking people who love something if u should buy it is just bad financial planning.
EXACTLY!!! bears need to be quiet!!!! not OUR FAULT they MISSED out?!!? WHY cry?!?!?! BE HAPPY!! BUY BUY BUY!!!! why???? why u say?!!?!?!? CUZ!!!!! BULLS ALWAYS WIN!!!! look at Bitcoin. 93k!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOW!!!!! hahahaha Bitcoin is about to reach 200k next MONTH soon!!!!! CANT STOP THE PUMPS!!!!!! BULLS WIN!!! BEARS DROOL!!!!!
WHY does Coinbase only allow $22,500 of deposits per day? DON'T THEY KNOW I'M TRYING TO FOMO THE TOP???
Oh no, it is not at all certainty that BTC will hold, but if BTC crashes, it is absolute certainty that all other crypto will follow that crash, unless they has solution for a problem on WHY exactly BTC has crashed. Like extremely expensive transaction fees for example, or something else that can bring it down. Thats why I was asking what edge DOGE has - without any, it is just a small puppy on BTCs leash that can jump high, but always comes down and will die with its owner.
This graph is reposted every few weeks with the exact same headline and every time someone in the comments points out that it is conveniently cropped on both the X and Y axis in the most favorable way.

Right? WHY did the Left think it was a good idea to go against crypto and Bitcoin for the last 4 years? Why are they in so deep with the banks and people who caused the 2008 crash? How am I supposed to vote against my and my family's financial well-being? Really disappointed in the alienation the Left is causing.
I mean, the "something else" is WHY it's at an all-time high.
Learn about BTC and WHY to should start buying. Don't let FOMO dictate why you buy. Learn that BTC is the greatest money to ever exist. Read the The Bitcoin Standard, Broken Money, The Creature from Jekyll Island. Then you'll never want to STOP buying BTC. And FYI, all other crypto are shitcoins.

yes you can have as many seed phrases/addresses as you want as long as it can store that amount of data. SIMPLE version if you havent factory reset it before this will keep you from getting high blood pressure haha \- send funds in cold storage to a hot wallet such as river, strike, swan, or even a good bitcoin hot wallet on desktop or phone. (i personally use strike & river) \-factory reset device get new seed phrase \- send like $10 worth of bitcoin to new seed phrase \- factory reset device again \-type in newest phrase that you wrote down \-verify that small amount of btc is there \*\*\*\*WHY DO THIS?\*\*\*\* now you have verified yourself that the seed phrase gives you access to your bitcoin & wont be afraid to factory reset the device anytime or even buy other manufacturers products because you know you can access your bitcoin with the seed phrase \-now send bitcoin from bitcoin hot wallet to new cold storage setup
You'll have to ask yourself WHY you won't do it, and why no one else is doing it.
Broken money is extremely well researched and articulated book. You read one book to understand WHY Bitcoin is better than other assets, and WHY Bitcoin is good for the world, and WHAT is money to begin with. I was orange pilled a few years ago before this book came out, even before The Bitcoin Standard, but I can imagine if I were to begin my journey today, Broken Money would be the book that orange pill me today.
Yeah hbo honestly deserves a huge lawsuit if this guy can prove he’s not Satoshi. — I know he’s not Satoshi. But this could have been a ploy to see how the public would react to satoshis identity being revealed. And seeing how terrible it’s going it’s safe to see WHY Satoshi never revealed his identity

>He's illiterate, the last book he read was about pirates sitting on a boat, very grade school level. He thinks knowing how to cook delicious food is for pussys you miss the forest for the trees. The grander point he was making regarding reading books is that action always supercedes sitting down and reading. Im gonna let you in on a little secret... he says things for shock value and tends to exaggerate to grab engagement. you also missed the grander point he made about cooking food which is that making money is more important than wasting time cooking food. "buy a 5$ rotisserie chicken and yam it and get back to work" Think of tate as a wwe character , he says things that are generally true and make sense but he says it in a controversial manner. I dont really feel like going on and on about this but you need to stop worrying about WHY you should hate someone and instead seek what you can learn from them. You are to emotionally invested in what he says or else you wouldnt feel so compelled to hate
Exactly my thoughts. WTF JUST HAPPENED?! We were in the green! It was looking so good!! I was literally watching the market cap go from 1.3 trillion to 1.35 trillion over the course of an hour and now it's gone back to under 1.3 trillion...WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?
I don't believe you, but if I did, WHY?
I was more convinced if anyone, it was Adam Back. The big miss for me was, if it was Peter Todd, WHY would he hand control to Gavin Andersen rather than Adam Back or others more aligned with his school of thought? Also, Gavin Andersen is the polar opposite personality of Peter Todd. It makes no sense.
But WHY would they ban BTC? The most logical reason is so that they can CONTINUE to hyper-inflate their currency. IF this is the reason they ban bitcoin then bitcoin will continue to appreciate in value regardless of its exchangeability into fiat, just due to its scarcity and transact-ability (much like how baseball cards or MTG cards can hold value). People always want the hardest money and if their reason for banning is to make their money softer then that is not a good idea.

> What scam? Look at the their listings pages. As well, Jesse Powell was a founding member of the rhymes with "nipple" board. > -Provide a source for their lie about reserves They are the source. They call it proof of reserves but it's an attestation, an audit. Proof of reserves is a set of signed inputs. there are no signed inputs, just the signed attestations of the auditor. https://www.kraken.com/proof-of-reserves Described as "An advanced cryptographic accounting procedure conducted regularly by trusted accountants" Real proof of reserves (like what river is currently doing) are specified in the original repository for the term: https://github.com/ElementsProject/reserves "For every proof-of-reserves, a Bitcoin transaction will be generated. This transaction will be invalidated so that it cannot be broadcast to the Bitcoin network. This is done by adding an input that refers to a non-existing UTXO. The remainder of the transaction consists of UTXOs owned by the proving party and a single output with the sum of the values of all the UTXOs in the inputs. The prover signs this transaction to prove that it can spend the UTXOs." See the difference? One is not proof of anything, it's a testimonial. The other is a bitcoin proof that the exchange can spend the reserves. > -Enabling....OK, so where you get your coins from? Let me guess OTC...because people dont lie or steal. I typically use bisq, bullbitcoin, bitcoinwell, or other bitcoin only and ideally non-custodial exchanges. In America I can only recommend cashapp, strike, and river as all custody their own coins even if they aren't non-custodial, are bitcoin only, and in rivers case they have an actual proof of their reserves. > -Casino - again with the rhetoric....but no proof. How is Kraken a casino, again? You never explained, just recited the mantra... They actively promote people to engage in scams for their own profit. This is evident in all the scams they list and their market materials. Do you remember when they hired dan held and he was posting shitcoin nonsense to usher people to kraken daily? look it up. Have you never received a kraken new token marketing email? They push these scams harder than the dealer on the corner slings coke. > -Assumptions? Well, you said it, not me... I am accusing you of being roundly misinformed and making egregious assumptions about me and it seems Kraken as well, yes. >-Pretending BTC is an investment...so what about all those people whos investment didnt go down as much as stocks, fiat or other "investment vehicles"....sources please. You want a source that Bitcoin is more than an investment? How about all the people like me using it as our daily and native currency? My first use cases was as a state machine for due dilligence data posting merkle tree roots as proofs to chain. You have projects liek opentimestamps, you have countries like el salvador adopting it as money, you have wallets like liana enabling complex programmable use cases like last wills and testaments and emergency recovery solutions - Bitcoin is more than an investment. People seeing only an investment are typically the most amateur users. > -Who said investors are blind to Bitcoins other valuable properties....in fact thast WHY THEY INVESTED. BECAUSE IT HAS VALUE. I did. If they weren't blind they'd run a node. Do you run a node? It's the only way to remain secure in your transactions. You can tell very obviously from the public [node count](https://luke.dashjr.org/programs/bitcoin/files/charts/historical.html) that most investors do not participate in the bitcoin protocol or verifying at all. >Id love to debate you all day on reddit but this is sufficient to show you the ignorance of your argument.

Did you not read what I wrote? Here let me remove a lot of it. RISK? What RISK. WHY THE F would there be risk. Why did you trust FTX with 1000s of dollar... I thought we told everyone/ crypto maxi Something something, remember mt. Gox, not your keys not your crypto. Never leave em on an exchange... Something something if you leave it on an exchange they can... Naked short it, gamble and lose, it's technically an IOU and if shit hits the fan like a bank wellll. But I guess everyone wanted Earn up to 8% APY on all your fiat and crypto. Bitcoin? 8%. Ethereum? 8%. Dollars? 8% Solana? 8% Dogecoin? 8%.... However because you let FTX/exchange hold your funds for whatever reason. You introduced that risk because that CRYPTO IS NOT YOURS WITHOUT YOUR KEYS And just like a bank FTX can gamble it. Make ponzi crypto. Etc etc. The moment you left it on the exchanges it was never yours. It was FTX OR or the bank.
World leaders:WHY NOT BOTH? C:
hahahaha look at these poor bears trying to make us lose. So SOOOOO cute. LOL!!!!! cute bears!!!! they still dont realize that bitcoin is over 60k!!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHA we will win WHY???? CUZ ITS A BULL MARKET LOL!!!! poor POOOOOOOOOORRRRR bears...... they just dont know how to stop.
I HEAR all of this and AGREE w/ most of what's said, and I've been a HODLer for about 7 years. What everyone seems to conveniently have amnesia about is that CHINA created the PANDEMIC mess (it either happened in a Lab, or in a market, dudnt matter, it stared there, and its proven they tried to cover it up when scientists started dying) which is why the Cash giveaway happened which is WHY Inflation happened and stubbornly stuck around for so long. But now its 2%, so IDK why its still being talked about
WHY would he ever do that? Anyone following the same code would get the same private keys. Not using a RNG to generate private keys or seeds is always a bad idea. There have been plenty of scams that use this tactic.
Actually read the article, these scam 'miners' didn't mine anything, this is a giant Ponzi, and this was a fully hosted miner deal, so you definitely depended on the work of these scammers to provide a fake return. If the investors had actually received the miners, and operated them themselves, then they wouldn't be a security, so the hardware is NOT a security, if it were real, and you could get one, which you could not. Cloud mining is ALWAYS a scam, because WHY would they need your money, if they can already mine profitably ?
Meanwhile, our elected House and Senate politicians all become multi-millionaires after a few terms despite making only $180K a year. WHY aren't THEY being investigated and jailed?
Yes fully agreed. If people are willing to value onchain bitcoin as superior then all is well. But the ETF crowd and the “why should I hold bitcoin when I can just buy ETF” questions tell me people don’t care. They want number go up, but don’t know WHY the number should go up. Short term price fluctuations is one thing. But long term paper Bitcoin would compromise the core value preposition of Bitcoin. The 21M absolute scarcity is the killer app. Nothing is more magical and important than Bitcoin’s 21M. Paper Bitcoin erode it just like paper gold eroded gold’s scarcity. Everyone thinks they “own” bitcoin but in reality it’s just a piece of paper tracking its performance. Their funds are used to purchase the paper rather than actually bidding up on the real bitcoin.

Oh my god. WHY SO MANY PEOPLE THINK IT'S THAT SIMPLE? Don't gamble your money away. Bitcoin is just for people with disposable income. If you can't afford to lose the money DON'T GAMBLE.
Jesus. This goes behind HOW...I want to know WHY.
You need to ticket them… and the “ticket” is a version of that “iphone vs bitcoin” chart In 2010, you needed 200k bitcoin to buy a Porsche. In 2014, you needed 30 bitcoin. In 2018, 15 bitcoin. THATS WHY!
I've been following this team since they launched on Solana and it just feels different. They are building a full ecosystem of utility.

Prices can drop 10%, then rise 4% and everyone demands answers. Basically, as long as prices aren’t moving in a predictable pattern, many are going to ask, WHY PRICE DO THAT? It’s the market at work, constantly evaluating new information and trying to economize.
What backs the thing that backs something? What backs gold? Computers? Water? Fighter jets? Intrinsic value doesn't exist. Rather, all value is entirely subjective and is merely part of the human psyche. For any given thing, it's value exists only because humans say it does, nothing more, nothing less. I mention this since you seemed to distinguish how bitcoin is valued vs all other assets, when really they're all valued for the same reason - because humans believe in the value. Now if you'd like to discuss WHY people believe it has value (most secure financial network, highly useful payment system, etc.) That's a different conversion.
But is he contractually obligated to a noncompete clause? He can legally start a new exchange. He can afford to hire people and start over.

Here is where I will agree to disagree on some fundamental differences. I'm honestly curious as to why you think Russia is Americas "worst enemy" on the current global stage. But at the same time, I 100% agree with continual investigation and oversight into ANY current administration both privately and publicly in order to come to a subjective conclusion as to why we're involved in a multi-billion dollar proxy war with another world superpower outside of fear mongering. Same thing can be said for supporting Israel in their conflict against Palestine. Can you explain WHY the US is justified in their support for Ukraine besides NATO expansion? Because "genocide" just feels like another highly charged vocabulary point used to paint someone as the "bad guy" to the public. Is the "genocide" against the Palestinians just as morally justified as the "genocide" amongst Ukrainians?
WHY is the HOTLINE not pinned?
Serious question to those whose buying, WHY? Feels like no ones in crypto anymore, like no new people.
The BRIC's will probably use some kind of crypto, maybe illogically backed by their gold hordes, or maybe oil or other commodities, like Venezuela's shitcoin The Petro claimed to be, but WHY would they use one 100 % controlled by a Western company ? Think about this idea logically for a second. Everything Ripple has been hyping has been pure hopium, and nothing is actually happening with XRP, not from banks, not from brics, not from the fed, or IBM, or anyone, besides the usual and customary corporate dumping by Ripple and gang. The history books will be replacing snake oil salesmen with the XRP scam, because it was so well designed and long lasting, literally milking this thing for DECADES, with absolutely NOTHING to show for it.
Also, OP, when you think from first principles, I hope I can convince you that Bitcoin ETF is detrimental to Bitcoin’s overall existence and even its price. Sure, the ETF tracks the price perfectly and if we all expect Bitcoin to continue its price trajectory then ETF holders will enjoy the same gains. That’s all good. But, if we could remind ourselves WHY does Bitcoin price go up in the first place, we need to think fundamentally what Bitcoin is… the typical one liner intro would be “Bitcoin is a decentralised, permissionless, censorship resistant digital asset” etc etc. This one line is the fundamental value proposition of Bitcoin. Being decentralised and permissionless etc IS Bitcoin’s utility and why price goes up in the first place. Imagine everyone ditch self custody, everyone just buys a few shares of ETF, meaning all real bitcoin will be held in Coinbase jail cells. Then Bitcoin loses all it’s special qualities that made number go up to begin with. ETF is piggybacking the real Bitcoin for gains, but if everyone does ETF then the real Bitcoin no longer works as intended, it’s just held by Coinbase and sit there, and we will see a situation where we are piggybacking on something that’s being destroyed by the piggybacking.
It doesn't. A bad investment can go up. What makes Bitcoin a good investment is understanding WHY it has gone up and WHY it will continue to do so. Few understand this.
To be honest, this is not the right angle. Focus on WHY the price is going up, not on the fact that the price goes up: they haven’t done the work. All they see is a gamble on nothing-but-air coin. You could have said/aksed if they think a digital form of money that is: - neutral, therefor open to everyone - resistant to censorship - borderless (can reach places no dollar or euro can, look up Alex Gladstien from the Human Rights Foundation for examples). - hard capped with a limited supply - security backed by real world energy that has a thriving industry built on top of it (if they start about energy waste, look up Daniel Batten his research on energy consumption). There are hundreds of companies building useful applications on top of Bitcoin, the network of people understanding and using bitcoin is growing at a very fast pace and therefor the price goes up. Bitcoin itself is very boring and just doing what it’s supposed to do, peoples reaction to this new thing is what causes the price of bitcoin to be volatile. If they can’t see that there is a place in the world for this technology and therefor that it will increase in value over time as long as more people will use this technology, don’t know what to tell them. They aren’t the great investors they think they are then. And if they can’t differentiate Bitcoin from other scammy cryptos, they haven’t taken the time to understand and learn about bitcoin. If you don’t believe me or don’t get it, I don’t have time to try to convince you, sorry.
no, it forces individuals to dip into the insanely huge loans they get from banks using these assets as collateral, which are at insanely low interest rates. These bastards are living tax-free essentially, with massive sums of money so large they couldn't possibly spend it all in a single lifetime, and can continue making payments against the loan WITH THE LOAN ITSELF for a lifetime if needed. There's a reason there's so much propaganda-style pushback against this. Rich people who own all these information outlets sure are against it. GEE I WONDER WHY.
YOU KIDS HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT THE WHOLE REASON WHY IT WAS INVENTED IN THE FIRST PLACE. God we’re so early
Holds crypto: 0/10 Turns crypto into fiat: 10/10 Turns fiat back into crypto: 0/10 WHY CANT THEY SEE ME FOR WHO I REALLY AM?!!
Let’s unpack 1) when I first replied your post had 3 points in it. Moments after my reply your post was edited to include additional paragraphs and statements. My issue is if you’re going to debate something do so in a genuine way, by replying to comments and not by effectively altering your initial comments 2) You state Hydra is limited to 20 members per instance. The way you’ve framed it gives an uneducated reader the impression that this is a “small” number and therefore not a significant scaling solution. You then impose a limit “can’t be used for liquidity pools or dexes” without providing any insight as to IF this is even a positive or negative. So my comments stands, it appears you have little understanding on WHY hydra is significant and HOW it can be used. 3) You claim Cardano couldn’t perform a 61 token ETH transaction because CNT cost 1 ADA each. This isn’t correct, while the ADA may be attached to a CNT you don’t incur additional cost (per CNT) when moving them. So on Cardano a user can send 100,000 CNT for ~1ADA in fees. Good luck doing that on ETH 4) Finally you don’t understand eUTxo and seem to think it needs to be framed as in a “better or worse” way. This is an accounting model and like any accounting model, some use cases demonstrate more value than others. It’s somewhat subjective and objective at the same time. At the core a eUTxo is predictable and won’t cost a user $ if it were to fail. On ETH a user must pay gas even for a failed transaction. Would you bank with ANY financial institution that charged you money IF you tried to move your own $ between accounts and it failed? Your post is a great example of the FUD that is rampant on this sub. Don’t like Cardano? Cool - don’t use it. Think it has issues and can be improved? Cool - buy some ADA and vote on how the treasury can be spent to improve the blockchain.
If you look at the chart when it dropped to 160.27, there is a massive spike in buy volume at that moment. That's when it happened. I don't know WHY they're doing it or for what purpose, probably to take money from retail in some way.
This happens when they don’t understand bitcoin. All they see is OP got really lucky. If they don’t understand it they see it as gambling. Just because OP won a lottery jackpot doesn’t mean they should go all in, in fact after seeing OP’s number went up it’s even less attractive for them to get in. They can spend $500 on gym membership, thinking they got something “real” from it, but would never spend $500 on lottery… which is fair, because any sane person shouldn’t buy $500 worth of lottery tickets. The key is to have them educate themselves there’s no other way. The number go up alone isn’t going to convince newbies to jump in unless they UNDERSTAND WHY the number went up in the first place.
I’ve been searching lawsuits and have been hearing from other people in similar situations. Some cases were the result of fraud, in my mother’s case this was a large, legitimate transaction for a home down payment that triggered the flag and “diminished capacity” label. This particular service rep flagged her account several weeks after her interaction with my mom regarding the other family member. We contacted Fidelity to ask WHY her account was flagged and what criteria they used, they offered no justification other than “Recent interactions have prompted this request.” That is it.
Respect the question, I'll respond to one aspect - questioning WHY investing in "productive assets" is even a good thing... sometimes yes, sometimes no. Most productive assets have a utility value + a monetary premium. The monetary premium is the amount over the utility value. It's the additional value placed there b/c people are trying to escape devaluation of the currency they hold.... so they put it into assets they deem as productive. This is how asset prices get over valued so quickly (aka inflation). In a fiat and inflation-based currency (even when gold backed) you kind of need those productive assets to be working to outrun the inflation. But what might happen if inflation of the money supply was impossible and technology-led deflation does what it's supposed to do. Jeff Booth discusses a lot of this in his book the Price of Tomorrow so i won't go into great detail here. But really think about the presumption we all make that all productive assets are good. In reality, a lot of those assets don't further our progress as a species and are unnecessary. What if growth wasn't always necessary? (I don't know the answer to that question, thus posing the question)
Well I must have triggered the highest fraud alarm in kraken! They repeated that I had 48 hours left to liquidate my account, and even stated I could Only transfer it back to my personal bank. No option to transfer money to a wallet. ANY IDEAS WHY THIS HAPPENED!😳
I AM LOSING MY MIND. WHY DO THEY USE THESE FUNNY WORDS: TUMBLES STUMBLES PLUNGES CRASHES ... And if the price goes up they use terms like: Surges Spikes Soars Leaps
I trust *nothing*. This pump is surely a dump - and then that dump shall be followed by a pump. IT IS KNOWN. I trust *nothing*. How do I know these words are true? **THEY ARE NOT**. So... why do I keep typing? Because I *trust only the father.* **YES -** father knows. Father knew before everyone else knew - before we trusted *anyone.* Now, I step out into the corn maze to find the father. Where is the father - you ask? **WHY WOULD I TELL YOU?!** Go and look onto your charts as I look for father in the corn maze. Then, once I return with 100x gains, *you* can complain about how you *trusted* the whales. Nay - the doves. From whence you came!
In rereading looking for the part i was thinking of, I do see a tone that is more in light of btc, and just more critical of Lowery. But I still think they were harsh on btc. I copied this, "This sounds like the "macrochip" concept Lowery has tried to explain on a few podcasts. This metaphor makes no sense to me, as the electrical grid does not act like a circuit board of a computer with regard to Bitcoin mining. All of the electricity consumed for Bitcoin mining happens independently; it doesn't flow toward a specific area to aid in computing anything. If anything, the power grid just acts as the power supply to Bitcoin's state change mechanism." -Lopp "A planetary-scale computer like this could theoretically create a portion of the internet where no single person or organization has full control over it, thus they have no ability to fully control the bits of information transferred, received, and stored on it. This decentralized portion of the internet could be reverse-optimized to be more expensive and energy-intensive to send, receive, and store every bit, giving it complex emergent behavior that no other computer connected to the internet would be physically capable of replicating." -Lowery "So what is Lowery actually proposing? It sounds like he wants Ethereum (or a turing complete system,) but powered by proof of work? Bitcoin is a poor substitute for a general purpose computer because its progammability is extremely limited (by design) and its throughput is extremely limited (by design.) Lowery has done a good job explaining WHY such a machine is desirable. But the HOW is a gaping hole of questions." -Lopp I copied allllll that text, as to not take stuff out of context, and I understand the objective statement "btc is a poor general purpose computer", but if you believe in the scaling solutions (op_cat/bitVM, ordinals) there ARE general purpose computer capabilities and ways to store data, respectively. Thats my case and point. You either believe btc can do all, or you don't. I do. Sounds like Lopp doesn't.
STOP. THINK. WHY WOULD A STRANGER BE TRYING TO GIVE YOU THIS? Seriously put the bong down and wake up.
One thing I like to do is check the Bitcoin address on the blockchain to see how much activity is on it. Often times I’m happy to see zero activity, but sadly that’s not always the case. It’s too bad addresses can’t be burned, but I understand WHY that’s not in the protocol, because you’re then have to ask “WHO gets to decide which addresses to burn”
Why are you invested in 'medium cap alt coins' ? We all know this stuff is pure moonboi hypetrash, and is all going to 0 in the next bear, except maybe Eth. The Macro situation is pretty clearly about to go off a cliff. Now is Bitcoin time, if you are in crypto, only move into medium cap and meme coins when the champaign is flowing full force, and we are partying like its 1999. Clearly it isn't that time, so WHY are you digging in the trash ? Maybe the crypto bull will still keep going, but maybe not, and the one good thing about Bitcoin is it is definitely NOT going to 0, but since almost EVERYTHING in the 'medium cap crypto and meme trash' is almost certainly going down 90-100 %, why be in that crap, unless its blue skies and clear sailing ?
Ok, good informative detailes reply, but ... but come on.... why a 20% dip and SO quickly since , like you mention, it's future, even near, it's not like an immense massive destructive solar activity is planned for the end of the week... Eveybody is asking "WHY so shark and especially SO QUICKLY !!!!!!
Okay, yes, everyone understands HOW Bitcoin can become worth more than current. If all the governments in the world decided that my strands of hair should be the new global currency, then my hair would suddenly be worth trillions of dollars and that's never going to happen. The question is WHY you believe BTC should be priced higher than $1T, not HOW BTC can go up in price.
....sure.... Its really amusing how you guys cannot even imagine a society where not everybody is having a revolver like in Wild West Movies. Shall i tell you a story about Iceland? The whole country of 450.000 population had not a single machine gun until in 2019, a mental crazy guy started shooting at police from bis baricaded house, and they had no other means to return fire than their handguns. So they bought some 10 Assault riffles, just in case somebody again is completely out of his mind. 1 policemen got injured. ....... Just dont assume the collapsed society of arms-madness that you see in the USA daily is the norm for the rest of the civilized world. it is not, and we laugh (with goosebumps, wtf you guys carry deadly weapons? WHY?) at it. Only in the USA, where everyone has a gun, one needs a gun. Sad story of a collapsed society.
You must be looking at a different cycle.... ALL PREVIOUS HAVING YEARS.... NOVEMBER HAS BEEN POSITIVE. WHY DIFFERENT THIS TIME?
[Education should be your first place to start](https://youtu.be/ZKwqNgG-Sv4?si=wFB7xBrYbLXh99D4) If you don't understand WHY you're buying Bitcoin, you will make mistakes. You won't buy enough, or you will sell it when the prices goes down. Then once you're confident in why you're buying this - start a small DCA that you can keep consistent. An amount you can put away for 8+ years at a minimum and know you'll never need to touch.
I know this is not the moment but WHY ARE YOU USING EXODUS FOR 2.86 BTC?
You nominated his friend. THAT'S WHY. https://youtu.be/KLcfpU2cubo?si=sxW7ithkOr62b3Ph
OP, looking at you history, you look deeply invested in ALGO and is trying to play off *"exposing"* Solana as a community service: From 2020: - Algorand has gone from $0.55 to $0.15 - Solana has gone form $0.50 to $180 Nothing in this video is breaking news so you are not exposing anything. Concerns and red flags about Solana were raised when it was $0.50, $1, $3....before most of the people here entered the crypto space. I always warn of these type of hyped tech projects where people lose most of their money so I don't have a horse in this race. But so far Solana performed differently with huge backing from VCs, hedge funds and SPAC King Chamath Palihapitiya is also vested who shill on CNBC whenver crypto rises. Congrats to those who made money on SOL. I can imagine you must be bitter but to post this as some kind of community service is disingenuous > **Solana (+441%) dump is going to be historic. Imagine paying over $1 when pre sale paid $0.04-$0.20** > It will come back down to $0.30 and that’s when you should load up > Imagine paying over 1$ a coin with no tech and a supply of 500 million coins. https://np.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/fykd3i/solana_441_dump_is_going_to_be_historic_imagine/ > Solana Unlocks 11.3 Million SOL Tokens secretly and then tries to cover up https://np.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/g9mf24/solana_unlocks_113_million_sol_tokens_secretly/ > What is Solana and WHY is it pumping like crazy? $3 https://np.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/i74xhp/what_is_solana_and_why_is_it_pumping_like_crazy/
