More quality meme material in the making. WO will be flooded when Bitcoin hits $100k in a few months.

You mean like this?



I guess I should stick a BTC logo over the circle.

I'm looking for anything that could represent bitcoin "certificates" or bills or something, some sort of design or artwork for paper wallets. There have been a few but none I really like. Something like "bearer certificate", that somehow conveys the importance or value of the paper other than just saying these are the keys to corn worth a xx dollars.

It is just for cosmetic purposes as a true paper / metal wallet is simply just the seed words or the private key on it.

Since this bull run has started we've spent a maximum of 12 days below the main channel before reentering.  The last time we floated around below the main channel we moved back up in within 4 days.  Current price movement puts us entering back into the main channel today or tomorrow.

The same financial rags claim that Bitcoin is also the most crowded long trade, not the most shorted. If traders truly thought it would halve from here, they'd be majorly leveraged short.

Nothing to see but FUD here, move along...

Imagine investing in such a company to get "exposure to Bitcoin" then in some years when BTC is worth much more and you feel like a millionaire, you realize the company was a ponzi and there is no BTC left.

Not your keys, not your Bitcoin.

Bitcoin investment companies (like Grayscale) are good for Bitcoin, but not suitable for those who are Bitcoin-literate enough to really own their coins (that's us). Why would any one of us use their services, when we are perfectly capable of actually owning (a.k.a. holding the keys to) Bitcoin and being our own bank? These companies can help the Bitcoin-illiterate investors have some skin in the game and reap some of the profits. All the better for everyone (and our keys are secure, while we reap all the profits). Win-win.

There are a few reasons, such as having exposure in your registered tax-sheltered government/bank retirement/savings accounts like IRA, ROTHs (for US), RRSP, TFSA (for Canadians), and whatever equivalent for other countries.

You'll want some in both self-custody (your keys, your coins) as well as on insured custodial ETF/stocks.

It's also a way to legitimately increase the contribution rooms in such types of accounts. You'll get taxed the usual way, or not taxed, depending on the type.

Yeah, yeah... I bet they would have responded the same in 2015 or 2016, and look where we are now... In fact, just go out on the street and ask the first 100 passers-by. Even screen them for a university degree at the minimum. I bet 95% would answer that it's going to zero.

Same if you had asked them about the internet in the 80s.

DB stock went from almost €100 to currently €8. bleeding for more than a decade. binance makes more profit. imho it is safe to say that chances that DB shares will double are way smaller than the chances it goes to zero...  Cheesy


they did hire a bitcoin podcaster (board level i think) though.

Good morning Bitcoinland.

Still bouncing in the $3xxxx range but a little higher with each bounce... currently $44840USD/$44333CAD (Bitcoinaverage).

Looks like last week's bear trap is almost closed. Just another little $1k ant step more.

Go Bitcoin go.

4 Hrs candle is green and price of BTC is above 50 SMA which is a good sign. Grayscale should buy more BTC to pump it to new highs.

Or better: "Tesla buying BTC" or "Amazon stock gets denominated in BTC" that would be uberbullish!  Cool

I think BTC proceeds will eventually result in share buy backs: managers happy and shareholders happy. Bitcoin price should not suffer that much if the sales are spread out and the Bitcoin market has grown much bigger.

Nice photo, OutOfMemory!

Maybe we could introduce "daily snaps" and post our favorite photos of landscapes, nature, birds (or the flying and the other kind), etc.

But there are OPSEC issues, so I guess it can't happen...



So, come on, Bitcoin, give use a PUMP for SWANS! White or brown, I don't care. Green would be nice, and they'd better be pointing upwards.

Daily snaps would be hard, because i am not out that often for shooting pics. Yesterday my wife was taking an ice bath in a lake, so i took the camera with me.
However, i can try do my best to keep this thread fresh with occasional pics. I always check if there is some hint to my location in the pics, if i posted them somewhere else already and so on, also my gear does not record GPS and extensive metadata while imgur strips it anyway.
The good news is, there is heaps of older shots (last 15 years or so) on my storage and in other local archives. You can expect to see the best and opsec-safest shots from my collection in the future.



We're over $34k again, so i guess bull market resume is confirmed.
I couldn't resist trading this dip with a small part of my (small) stash, which is lying on exchanges for quick cash out in case i'd need to. I gained almost 0.07 BTC out of it, while closing my short term shitcoin positions yesterday.
Now on to strict #hodl mode again  Grin


Actually i was waiting for this pump since yesterday, i think i also posted a one-liner about this. I saw many Shitcoin-BTC pairs losing strength, so i was assuming a good amount of the traders will pump their "investments" back into BTC again. These occasions, while rare, can't fail you. Even with bad timing you'd get some good Sats out of it.

About Japan and inflation, keep in mind Japan is a very special country. All the kinky stuff aside, Japanese people own a majority of their stock and bond markets, on top of lots of assets in other countries. Then large companies are run like families, where layoffs are minimized, etc., and employees are very loyal. Then there is the fact they're not making children anymore, and there is no immigration. Many factors that can explain the low inflation despite printing money.

... this "have fun staying poor" meme is an arrogant dick kind of thing to say too. Some people can be rich without a cent ... or a satoshi.

 It's actually a "funny, arrogant thing to say", considering the saying was stolen from degenerate DeFi addicts and violent mETH-heads, but hey, who am I to know meme origins...

EDIT: ...and I mean, if you consider the ironic meta in all of it, Bitcoin could drop to zero due to a fatal flaw, and we'll all have fun staying poor together !

Aren't you dollar rich, now ?
