BTC reserves held on exchanges continue to decrease. For the last 2 days over 80K BTC were withdrawn from all exchanges. This sideways lingering continued long enough. We are getting to the point where the upward explosion will be unstoppable. The rocket is fueled and ready to launch, overcoming the gravity of the miniscule daily profit seekers. Traders, think twice before hitting the sell button with a 0.9% profit!

Must be nice to own 11,635.325 btc

Today such a huge amount has been sent if it is sold on the exchange, what will be the price situation? I think the price will drastically be reduced.

My next personal analyze is posted on my thread. Here I'm quoting the post to share here with you.
Also, the analyses I share on 16th June worked as I was expecting. This could be really nice if you send some time and comment your thoughts in my crypto personal analysis thread.

You know what you shouldn't do today?
I'll tell you:
You shouldn't risk your sats by trading.

Just hodl in the sun. Relax. Don't get greedy. We're super early.

Heard Dat...

Just looked over a few minutes - and it seems the initial premise is that people marked negative for test were still 'presumed' Covid positive.  

OK, but...  it is entirely plausible that:

1. People were not tested, but obviously suffering classic symptoms.

2. Test results were taking hours (at best) to even come back - if someone is an emergency admission and short of breath at dangerous levels - as a doctor, you need to act and make a decision. I assume we are not arguing that thousands of people were dying.

3. Tests were simply not showing positive, since they were unreliable.   A positive test is rarely wrong, but false negatives do exist - tests were then (and are still) not infallible.

Her assertion that they were not ill and were only short of breath 'due to stress' is a bit of a stretch IMHO.  Testing being fallible - or (because of time taken to even get results) being skipped in cases where someone is obviously lacking blood oxygen, seems a more likely explanation than deliberately using up ventilators for people with no real need.  
Pulse oximeters are ubiquitous in hospitals and damn quick to reliably show dangerously low oxygen levels.  People panicking get high results, people short of breath due to pneumonia get low ones.

OK, that ventilators and, in particular intubation, are not the best clinical options may or may not prove to be the case.  At this time there was no better option, since people with not enough oxygen tend to die pretty quickly.  

Holders are mostly the beneficiaries, and this is what people who are billionaires today in different fields do holds their shares or buy in bulk and continue holding it because they below in it. it may be a temporary fall or may have some time to recover but eventually when it starts to boom, then only the matter of time how quickly your negative returns over the past years not only becomes positive but also the surpasses all your expecting and this in bitcoin we have seen it when it has reached 20k when nobody believed it could even happen.

Must be the right way to go about. No income for 10 years, buying the latest and greatest computers, employ some people and tell em what to do

Damn it feels good to stay a few days in some other cities .... missed this feeling for month’s

There is always something around the corner ....

Though with BTC I always have a good feeling, and consider myself lucky to have played a tiny role in adoption of it .... and most of all to be lucky to be one of the early ones in it

Whatever it works for you, I am good with that.

We are all grown up men, after all.
Just read this treatise. Not too long, wittily written.

God damn! I've been dca-ing with coinbase for 7 years .. I'm totally f*ckd man. Might as well put a bullet in my head.

In the meantime I'm still working on my latest track entitled "Paranoid Delusions"....

I'm no expert on this, but from reading Paul Allen's book Idea Man (2012) I certainly do not think of Bill Gates as a side-guy to Microsoft's success story but a key player together with others. They saw an opportunity, acted on it and worked their butts of with just the right mix of people.

Well done.

Anyone well versed in the ascent of computers is advised to read this book if not already done so.

HODLers not affected. 

or you can lever 10 USD and play with them.. never go all in!!

I assume that 6.66K number came from doing 4%?
Assume that you are doing this 4%, suddenly, a health issue. No job, no insurance and you are billed $500K.
Plus, subtract taxes on RE, etc, etc.
6.6K and moving to less expensive place like Spain or Portugal-maybe.
As far as some people getting excited-sure..it turned out that meager donation of $600/wk from CARES act increased "earnings" for more than 60% people on UE ABOVE their previous pay.

Ok.  Let's play with $2million.  I was not referring to any movie, and sure of course, if you are  talking about 1974 as compared to today, then you have to 3x the referred to amount in order to get somewhere close to 2020 dollars.

I do believe, however, a person can live decently well off of $2million, which would provide a passive income of $6,666 per month.  That is assuming a 4% withdrawal rate that would largely allow the withdrawal of appreciation while maintaining the principle.

We have had this conversation before, and of course, you are not going to have any kind of baller lifestyle on $6,666 per month, but it should be enough to get by pretty decently as a kind of passive income, and surely, $2million is better than $1million because it is double the amount of $3,333... even $1million is doable in some parts of the USA and of course certain parts of the world will even allow for better living on that amount of passive income per month.   We can agree to disagree if you believe that entry level of fuck you status is absolute more than $1million, because I know all kinds of poor fucks who live off way less than $3,333, and some of them live off less than $1k per month and are able to get by, so $3,333 is going to be much better for them, than $1k, especially passive income.

Of course, many of us consider that we want to have a cushion and all those kinds of considerations that involve volatility and making sure that we are planning based on worse case scenarios, but if we can assume either $1million or $2million in principle that is steady, then a lot of people are going to be bat shit excited by that level of principle to be able to generate their 4% per month of a withdrawal rate that would produce $3,333 per month for $1million and $6,666 for $2million.


I only brought up silicon valley because the initially referred to article was talking about the guy who cashed out like around half of his BTC stash of about 2,200 bitcoin at $11,000 in 2017, which generated somewhere around $25 million, and he bought a house for $7million in silicon valley and he bought a few other consumer items and a business, but anyhow, I was referring to more modest cashing out scenarios that might generate way less revenue, and suggesting that the amount of money that the guy in the article had was in the filthy rich status rather than either fuck you status or even a more reasonable expected amount that brought me to mentioning a $1million to $2million dollar investment portfolio for some other hypothetical (and less rich) person who might be trying to get by in silicon valley. 

Anyhow, since you are conceding that we had some moment of being "largely aligned," we probably don't need to bat around too many more details, because it would likely just push us out of such alignment, which I would rather just enjoy our temporary alignment status, even if it may not be anything very solid to grasp onto.   

With your subsequent clarification, I think we're largely aligned, JJG. I think I was mostly reacting to your choice of silicon valley as an exemplar. Sure, Coeur D'Alene could be a fine place to live out a comfy life on 2M (I'm spitballing here). But Silicon Valley? Nuh-uhnh. Not Palo Alto, not San Fran, not San Jose, not Santa Ana, not Milpitas, not Los Gatos, not...

Ok, maybe Gilroy.

Never been to Palo Alto (been to many other places in Cali), but I imagine that I know what he is talking about as Houston also has very prosperous enclaves with houses that look like some kings ought to live there. I straddle "the great divide" of both of these arguments.
IMHO, in most of US, $1-2 mil remains a pretty good investment portfolio AS LONG as you have a steady job that pays reasonably well (or an equivalent income stream) AND your job gives you a decent health plan. If you don't have a job and you are not close to at least getting Medicare and SocSec, $1-2 mil is woefully insufficient. "Gambler" (the movie) claims that 2mil is enough (F U money), but it is not. The movie is based on the 1974 screen play. Back then, $2mil was certainly F.U. money. Not anymore.
