Bitcoin is more stable than the Brazilian Lira and the price of gold.

It is shaping up to be a valid currency.

Hmm, Brazilian real.

With the BRL I typed in google Brazilian L and it popped up a bunch of 'brazilian lira to usd' searches..

It is indeed quite shocking how Bitcoin can be more stable than currencies with much larger money supplies or market caps in relation to other currencies. It could have an advantage because bitcoin isn't directly effected by any one central bank because it is international. This may start to change the conversation into one of if bitcoin can or cannot receive stability as a unit of account, but may eventually translate into one of the most stable unit of accounts of all currencies even before it becomes an accepted reserve currency.

The Brazilian real does have an 8% inflation and is indeed more volatile now than bitcoin.

My target is to not have to sell any coins unless I really need fiat in an emergency.

It's not a target price but rather a target date. I'll turn 75 years old in 2023. My amassed bitcoins are my old age pension fund.

Wow, so your beard is really that long Cheesy

Looks like $429 might be the new $416 for now.

LOL Almost. It's about time for my annual springtime chop.

I'll be able to put on a plaid shirt and pass myself off as a lumbersexual if that's not hopelessly outdated. Cool

Hide your women

So the altcoin pump-and-dumpers are pumping BTC. Hmmmm. What do the P & D crowd do after they pump? They dump. Shrots are rekt so there is no safety net.

Now there are over 25 Million in longs on BFX to get squeezed instead of 20MM. But whatever. Keep pumping. I'm sure that it's fer sure totally sustainable.
