Yeah very easy to setup your own relay with Umbrel.
Done the same.
We are at the dawn of the decentralisation of all things. Wrenching back control to the people through peaceful means.
Bitcoin was the Genesis of it all.
As you say very exciting times.

Think I'm officially bailing on Twitter.

Don't see any further need to use it given their heavy handed moderation. Got my own private relay working last night, downloaded the Nostrid software, and was able to start using it locally and really starting to have some fun.

I was amazed at how quickly a response I posted via my private node appeared on Iris.

What a time to be alive...

I think crypto twitter is pretty split right now. Maybe 40% expect a rebound from around $20K, another 40% still expect $12-14K with probably around 20% undecided. I say "still expect", but in reality they previously called for $10-12K and have since increased their bearish target by about +$2K. I imagine that with Bitcoin returning to $24K they will be calling for $16-18K again (increasing by +$2K again).

If anything the bears are useful for one thing, being around $4K off the bottom each time. So based on this I'd estimate the lowest price goes is around $18K ($14K+4). Ideally it holds $19K for sake of continuing the uptrend, but this is also the bullish scenario too many are betting on, myself included. I'll look forward to $24K levels again, as I imagine another higher low around $22K ($18K+4) would be in play.


This I agree is more realistic than $12-14K right now. Turning previous resistance into support with a technical double rounding bottom is still a reasonable suggestion for now.

Explanation

Wouldn't bet on that too. We could see a confirmation of the technical double bottom already at 18k.

No. All mining just moves outside of the US. More money goes to the Chinese.

The current administration appears to be financially incompetent (or actually malicious) so it's hard to discount this could happen.

seems half of twitter is waiting for 12k-13k, I wonder if it will happen  

good luck with betting on lower BTC prices when being already 72% under the ATH  

Yeah, I am at the 'gathering dust' phase and CBA with the selling part.

Explanation

When I shorted ETH last week at 1652.04 I did it as a consequence of BTC failing to break the 200MA resistance.
I was expecting BTC to confirm the technical double bottom of June 18th and November 09th one last time.
Now all this wind of news and fud is catching my sails, still I believe the bottom is in technically - just needs one more confirmation.
The only thing that has changed is that we are moving there faster now.

Fin "guy" predicts 100bp interest rate CUT within 6-9 mo.

Stocks bottom is usually within 6 mo of the cut start, so, say, cuts start in 3-6mo, then bull market starts (in full) in 9-12 mo.
Makes sense, just before the halving.

That...or we are in 1930 (or maybe spring 2007)...I prefer the first scenario (100 bp cut).

Looking to make a sizable purchase of btc and stocks, but not yet.

not sure how many times in life one would be able to write something like that down...and it be true as well...

Good morning Bitcoinland. Back up over $20k, barely.

Been away for a bit. Week from hell.

First our flight to Cancun was delayed twice and then cancelled by a massive blizzard. Then we were stuck on the plane when the connecting ramp at the airport gate malfunctioned. Didn't get to our hotel in Playa del Carmen until after midnight. Dentist appointment at 11:00am but we hadn't eaten since noon so we went out to the local live music bar only to find the kitchen closed. Luckily a friend working there talked them into making us some nachos con pollo. After 3 double margaritas each our hunger and stress were abated and we made it back to our hotel by 1:00am. Disco noise nearby kept us awake until after 3:00am.

Got up  at 8:00 for coffee and enchiladas con mole and were about to go out to find a taxi when the dentist Whatsapped me to say my teeth hadn't arrived from the lab as promised and re-booked me for 4:00pm, then again for 6:00pm. We sat in his waiting room for another half hour waiting for the delivery dude to finally show up. More margaritas required.

Made it out to our little jungle village to find out that they were going to shut down the power for 2 days. We turned on the freezer and froze enough buckets of ice to feed the Coleman cooler that serves as our fridge during outages. Our trusty little Honda EU2000i will run our freezer, air conditioner, LED lights and all our electronics including chargers for over 8 hours on a gallon of gas, but we have to turn off the AC to use anything else. Unfortunately someone had "borrowed" most of our well-preserved gas supply and we were critically low on fuel. The power outage meant that the gas pumps didn't work. Luckily a local kept an overpriced supply of gas available in big coke bottles.

The power is back on today so we again have internet which is our only communication. We have no landline or cellphone service here. Everybody uses Whatsapp. Luckily we've learned to be prepared for the unexpected out here.

Now to try to find a cheap flight back next week. Gotta be back before the end of March. Got a gig on April Fools Day.

Salud!

At least we can party like it's 19.99

Stay calm and hodl with conviction, folks.

Yep. Wait for some bad news, knock it down then squash any recoveries. Finish up with buying cheap coins.

I don't know about glass hands, it seems like people have banana pudding hands. How long until 2024?

SIVB-receivership?? Wow
two days ago the stock was $268, yesterday $108, now halted with news of possible sell and it currently being placed in receivership.
This is faster than Bear went down in 2007.
Let me guess: $2/share?

EDIT: this is an important bank for venture caps, had 175 bil(!) deposits at the end of December.

people REALLY should put money in bitcoin (not a financial advice).
