At present, the popularity of BTC is increasing day by day. So BTC will not be the same as before. in my opinion, we can see some dump and then pump🚀 but will not same as before.

buy the rumor, sell the news.

So that's why corn dipped 10% today, maybe?
However, great frontpage feature in a great financial magazine!

EDIT: Meanwhile, in other news:

You could keep your job too and just not accept any further promotions or responsibilities, or maybe work even less hours. I think it's a good idea to keep your employment as it makes you look "normal" together with the rest of the people. You work, get paid, pay taxes. Your corns can be kept separate (whether you pay taxes on those or not is really up to you and how comfortable you are with all of it, maybe take time to study this area too.)

While working, you can probably add to your retirement fund, whatever it is called, 401k for those in the US, "super funds" for those down under, plus whatever social security / social insurance you get from the government, if you intend on claiming those.


^ This (highlighted is my plan as well).

EDIT: if corn exceeds 90% of your assets, maybe consider selling some, but when selling don't keep all in fiat, buy some less correlated assets: real estate (direct, no REITs), wine, collectables, timber, maybe some cheap emerging markets ETF. I was looking at some stonks-you can create quite diversified ETF portfolio (10-15 ETFs in different sectors) with >5% average annual yield.

Thx man.

I have the diarrhea unfortunately.  Sad
Smelling OK.
No blisters in mouth.
Do not feel anything bad when fully inhaled, and can keep it for a long time.

Will keep an eye on it.
You have fever, headache and diarrhea.
Have you talked to any doctor yet?

If you have a qualified doctor in the family then reach out to them, give them a call and share them the symptoms. They may give you some better suggestion than anyone else us here or someone who are not qualified. If no doctor in the family then see a doctor near to you.

I hope it's not anything to be worried about but it's better to consult with a qualified person and follow their suggestion.

The Concierge of Crypto
I'm strongly considering quitting my job, and doing something, anything else while living off crypto for the foreseeable future. This is the first day of work after a 2 week break, and instead of being "refreshed" and ready to work, all I can think is the break wasn't nearly long enough. Despite finding the work deeply unfulfilling, my job is stable and pays pretty well (a quick Google search says I'm in the top 97% within my state).

Probably the biggest thing holding me back is losing the structure that comes with the daily grind. I'm not completely confident I have the necessary self-discipline to create my own structure over the long-term, and while there are a lot of things I want to do (contribute to open source crypto software, write a novel, go back to school, etc), there's the non-zero chance I end up wandering aimlessly without purpose until wasting away.

Has anyone else gone through this or a similar thought process? This might be the only place (that I know of) with people who could relate.

Complete darkness in a much bigger room (other than a coffin) might be better. And either complete silence or some loud white noise.

Before the rise and crash, I was living off crypto for about 3 years. Then I lost it all and had to find other sources of income, mainly I got a job.

During that time, I was busy adjusting to living in a different country (I moved, and took my family with me), went to school for a year, learned some server stuff and got some microsoft certifications, enrolled kids to school, walked them to school, drove them to school, picked them up there or in a school bus ... I was also busy here and there trying to earn more corns because I was spending them too.

Maybe find some other hobby, other than work related or crypto / bitcoin related and focus on that. Perhaps one of those self-competitive sports. Maybe something like powerlifting or olympic weightlifting, where all you do is add 1 more pound or kilogram to the bar every training day. Build it up slowly and, while you'll never get anywhere near the world's strongest people, it's something you could do for decades (plus it keeps you healthy and strong.)

I would not recommend signing up for some streaming service and binge watching, although that's something you can add to your schedule. Maybe watch a bunch of "Planet Earth" videos. I have my own list of stuff I'm watching, or re-watching, and it's going to take me a year to finish it all at the rate of 1 every week. By that time, there are new stuff. I'm not in a hurry as it's all entertainment, and partly educational.

You could keep your job too and just not accept any further promotions or responsibilities, or maybe work even less hours. I think it's a good idea to keep your employment as it makes you look "normal" together with the rest of the people. You work, get paid, pay taxes. Your corns can be kept separate (whether you pay taxes on those or not is really up to you and how comfortable you are with all of it, maybe take time to study this area too.)

While working, you can probably add to your retirement fund, whatever it is called, 401k for those in the US, "super funds" for those down under, plus whatever social security / social insurance you get from the government, if you intend on claiming those.

The more important question is if your crypto or savings or retirement fund can pay for your annual expenses for the next 25 to 30 years. It's not how much you earn in a year, it's how much you spend. And sometimes, it's not how much you spend now, but how much you will spend, since a lot of people spend less when they don't have to drive to work or send kids to school.

Do you currently have an emergency fund where if you lost your job tomorrow and lost all income from that job, and lost all benefits, you can survive for several months or years?

In numbers, it would be quite simple. If you spend $40k per year, when you have $1m (and this is denominated in fiat), then you can retire and do something else. If you have car payments, a mortgage, kids, ... (friends and family) ... or you want to indulge and get stuff you don't currently own, you'll have to factor those in.

If you already have or had (in the last month or so) $1m worth of corns (assuming you only spend $40k per year), then you can probably quit your job now too, as you only need to get from corn what you need to spend, not the whole amount. As the price rises (and falls), you're likely to be able to live off it for at least 25 years and probably a lot more. By the 10th year, the corns you still have left will probably be worth more too. Only time will tell.

We still live in a fiat world, so you have to balance that and your corns.

Alternating wildly between feeling "OK" and having a fever and headache. No coughing, no shortness of breath. Not yet anyway. Hopefully never.
Hey brother. You are fine. This might be normal virus fever with headache. Don't worry too much.

Careful about things like
Can not smell
Having diarrhea
Blisters in the mouth

Do breathing exercises, when inhale notice if you feel any pain in the chest. Obviously always have the oximeter. 97/98 is fine but regular person should have 99+

I am not a doctor but I am saying all these from experience being with covid patients.

I hope you get well soon brother.

Thx man.

For my part, i'm unemployed since 2011 now, mainly because of fatigue, weak immune system and memory problems.
Eight years before that i ran a home/small business in the IT industry. I got good health and social insurance.
(EDIT: On about a third of what i used to earn, but it's enough)

So now, back to your question: You have to have some "mission", a hobby and take the times just as they come. I had to learn to never feel bored (through meditation).
You have to be immune to people's talks, because not many can get along with somebody making a living of not working. In my case i undergo a lot of neurologic therapy, and i'm restored to some extent, at least in terms of fitness and immune system strength. Your "aim" may be to discover everything you didn't know about yourself yet.

And there's that golden tip i got once...
Go into absolute darkness and silence (some people used a coffin), relax without motion, just shut your mind down to a point where you imagine "this is it. i'm dead. This was my life..." Pretend to be dead. Take your time, i'm serious, and then you will start remembering what you did, all your experiences, your life and, most important, what you didn't do, what you regret you did, which dreams you didn't work on to realise them....
If you do this right (authentic) you will know what you want to do with your life. Trust me. It's being taught at seminars in Germany.

Remeber: You need to look at your past life as if you're dead already. It's not important how you do it, it's only important that you actually do it.

Learning how to reassign your time is one of the biggest challenges of quitting an addiction like alcoholism, job slavery, or hard drug dependence.

You may have already realized the harm caused by your addiction and decided to quit but if you are accustomed to hanging out in bars or with cronies drinking, or working in some office or factory, or jonesing for your next fix, it takes an extra effort to learn how to use your extra time.

This is why quitting cold turkey without a plan isn't a good idea. Hobbies are a good start. Fun enterprises are even better. May as well get paid for having fun.

Mark Twain said, "work is what a fellow is obliged to do". If it's fun and optional, it's not work. It's a hobby.

May as well get paid for your hobbies.

Hodl tight man. If you haven't seen bad symptoms yet, you likely won't. When it's bad, it's usually immediately bad. This pattern of yours hit two of my friends (one in her early 40s, the other in his late 50s). Both were out of it in just over one week, plus of course some time to get back to full baseline.

EDIT - No muscle/joint pain? That was the worst of the "light" symptoms apart from head splitting headaches. My older friend, a former athlete, said he'd never felt anything like that muscle pain, even in post-traumatic conditions.

Thx man, I appreciate the post.

Fortunately, no bad symptoms in the sense that I must be admitted to hospital. Just fever swings and diarrhea. In fact, when I take paracetamol (for the fever) I feel pretty good. I can feel I'm sick, but I can still enjoy things. No coughs, no shortness of breath, no muscle pain, nothing like that. If it completes its cycle in a week, that would be great!

In my 40s, quite fit, exercising every day, not overweight. Hopefully this will help kill it faster.

Hey WO gang!

Thanks so much for your replies, I've read and appreciate every single one of them!

On the PC now, at last. WO is a pain to browse from the screen of a phone, let alone posting, quoting, etc. Should get a good tablet. iPad Air maybe? Why not, we're rich now, aren't we?

Still alive, confined at home monitoring myself. This has got to be the weirdest illness I've ever experienced in my entire life. Alternating wildly between feeling "OK" and having a fever and headache. No coughing, no shortness of breath. Not yet anyway. Hopefully never.

Got an oximeter as suggested. Readings look good (alternating between 97% and 98%). I read that 94% is the warning threshold, so all good. I'm quite fit, exercising regularly, not taking any medication, etc. This should help me win this fight.



On topic. I see we had a correction for ants, which is already bouncing back up and has entered the typical decaying oscillatory response. Based on what I've seen so far, I'd say it will either go sideways for a little while and then shoot up, or it will shoot up straight away. We'll see. I'm happy either way. Shouldn't be too greedy. Once upon a time I was aiming for 10k € and we're now at 25k+ €...

I read the post with the news about Bitcoin "losing steam" by dipping 10%. Really? Don't they know nuttin'? Are they embittered nocoiners? Paid shills? Rhetoric questions... Funny thing is that, as already noted, the news item hasn't aged so well, and very soon I see some nice memes being posted based on this.

Not selling a sat until I need to. No targets. Will sell when I need to. And as much as I need to. Will not fill the bank with fiat. Already have some there and they are now worth less than when they were put there.

Onwards & upwards.

#humbled #love #nohomo

yeah it is weird . I was sick with it dec 31 2019 to jan 25 2020. fever on and off. my body felt black and blue and beaten on.

I was 63 when I caught it.
I have asthma
I have diabetes

And I did better with it then my wife. 91-93 on the o2 meter.  fever spiked hard one time 103 for 3 hours. with uncontrollable shakes. My skin felt hot and sweaty and my insides felt cold. Wrapped myself in 3 blankets and sweated that mofo out.

Once that one really hot shaking stopped fever was never over 99 and I was done with it.

For me this was not as bad as the h1n1 flu I had in 2009.

My wife on the other hand really has suffered long term lung damage which is just getting better after 1 year and 1 week since first getting it.

Good luck fighting this mofo bro.

Yes, very similar to my case. I haven't taken paracetamol for one day, no fever, all good. I try to sleep without taking any paracetamol, only to be woken up in the middle of the night shivering from a rising fever. Then I take paracetamol and a couple of hours later I'm woken up again, all sweating (pyjamas literally dripping) from the falling fever. Nasty mofo!

Mine started on Dec 31 2020. So I'm looking at enduring this for the most part of January. OK, good to know what to expect. I'm in my 40s, so hopefully it will take a bit less time to clear out. I just hope it does clear out, and doesn't clear me out...  Shocked

Thanks man, and all WOers.
