Well, I just got back from a trip to the Southern US, and let me say I am very glad I've been vaccinated. These people are idiots, and with a 30-40% vaccination rate I could hear the coughing around. Stay out of enclosed spaces with them, and keep your P100 handy if needed....
I think the US is going to be kind of funny in the next month. So far I seem to be fine, but am watching my temps closely.

Since we are almost in a double chartbuddy time, can someone please explain to me the logic behind this?
And if a vaccinated person has to isolate, got his mix with the “Green Pass” thing (certification of vaccination or negative swab to access some kind of services?)

I'm guessing he doesn't want to be some unknown carrier of the disease or virus? I mean, he might have traces of the virus on him even if he himself is immune, and could pass that on to someone else. The virus will not survive long inside his body if infected since he would have the antibodies already, but any virus that is on or about or outside or on the skin could still bounce around to anyone else.
Double vaccinated people can still catch it.
A double vaccinated TV personality called Andrew Marr caught it at the G7 meeting in Cornwall.

I had received two doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine long before. I wasn't behaving recklessly - but I did feel pretty much invulnerable.

First, early symptoms of this new strain, first identified in India, are very, very similar to those of a light cold - and it is incredibly infectious, so beware.

You may think you have superpowers because you have been double vaccinated. And, yes, the vaccine seems it does protect very well against admission to hospital - at no point did I have difficulty breathing.
But that doesn't mean you can't become infected.

If it doesn't drop below $30,000, we can test $45,000. I bought some Bitcoin and some altcoins to try my luck. NOT INVESTMENT ADVICE. I'm trying to learn the basics.

Reinfection and/or transmission is still possible. The death toll in England has been steadily rising over the past month. Please people, stop spreading this virus, and stop criticizing people who take precautions!

There are 10 just to get you closer to him.

You likely have more coin than I do and you surely have more merit.

I spoke to one of my uncles on Friday and then I spoke with him at brunch today.. and on Friday, he was saying something about wanting to buy some BTC.. like a somewhat repeated theme of him saying but not doing... and sure, I say some things that should at least allow him to appreciate hedging or DCAing or some kind of modest starting point.
Then when I saw him at brunch.. holy shit he was an arrogant twat. He started bragging that stocks were generally up 14% for the calendar year, and even when I said that the calendar year did not matter, he insisted that we look at bitcoin and we saw that the 6 month price performance of BTC appeared to be 15% down.. so in that regard, he was quite smug about it, and even when I told him that he seemed to be choosing random price points in order to ignore actual facts, he was quite excited to proclaim that stocks are doing better than bitcoin and that his ability to live off of his investment strategy for around 25 years, as a kind of passive income was sufficient evidence regarding what he was doing was sufficiently adequate and keeping him in a quite good place..
Try not to get angry at him but when his stocks are down in a couple of months time and Bitcoin shoots to over 60k in December just said him a little message saying your hope he is enjoying his passive income and you are definitely enjoying your new lambo you bought. I am kidding its never a good thing to be smug about it but I hear this all the time. The amount of discussions I have had with family about them wanting to get into Bitcoin and never taking the leap and then they try and then it goes up and they regret it and once it falls back down all you hear is them trying to justify it to themselves why they did not invest "see its a bubble". This does not just happen once this happens on a yearly basis and its the same pattern over and over but the only difference which they refuse to acknowledge is Bitcoin is up from the average of the last two years.

You cannot change ignorant people.
Funny thing is that I could not really get the matter out of my head, so I sent my uncle a text and I proposed a "friendly little bet" about the calendar year.
I said that I would give him a 30% headstart because I am nice like that, and I proposed that we make a friendly bet about the price of bitcoin versus the price of stocks (proposing using the DJI), and I said that we could figure out the denominator for each at the beginning of the year, and I suggested that I win the bet if BTC performs at a higher percentage by the end of the calendar year, and he wins the bet if the DJI performs at a higher percentage at the end of the year...
An easy-peasy and straight-forward bet, no? I have not heard back from him, yet.. but he really does not text very often, so he has that excuse.. so I may have to remind him when I see him in person.. not sure when that will be.
We would bet something like $5 or some kind of small token amount.. but I gotta hear from him, first.. so that we can settle (agree upon) the denominators of each and the other terms of the proposed calendar year bet.
Through such a bet, I will attempt to determine the level of his conviction (cockiness today) and if he is willing to put his pride on the line for the end of the year.. He's the one who proclaims to "like" calendar year nonsense, and I will go along with his framework... and we will see how it plays out.. I am not really worried about if I lose.. but I want to see if he is going to have some conviction beyond what he says on one day then acts like he forgot that he said it.. blah blah blah.

The point of the post was probably aimed more at Billy nocoins to show that a drop to any particular price really does not matter to those here in it for the long haul. 450X was just the rough number of $ increase in value of my $68 coins at present time.
There have been so many crashes since I bought my first coins that had I capitulated at any of those points along the way I would not be in the comfortable position I am with Bitcoin right now.
Arriemoller is not particularly worried with 50% drop and I'm not at all worried. I also agree with Arriemoller this cycle top has not been reached.

this is pretty much my situation, i watched bitcoin go from ~$35 to ~$2 USD. i figured it was a goner for sure. i only kept mining because i was an old time cruncher from a folding@home and SETI background. so i was used to donating free computing power to projects.
needless to say i am quite pleased with the fact that my (presumed) generosity of computing power in the past led me to an early retirement.
so 80% drop. meh. wake me up at one dollar, maybe ill take the energy to sneer at it or something.
