I traveled to see a total eclipse once, from my vacations in Brittany to Portsmouth via ferry, in 1999.

Unfortunately the UK weather being what it is, even in summer, there was a total cloud cover. We saw everything darkening but no real night because of the clouds.

About selling BTC "high" then 10 years later it was low after all, one way to mitigate this is to play with BTC's volatility and sell more than what you need, keeping half of the fiat to buy back lower.

But clearly don't sell big amounts relative to your stash unless it's life and death I'd say. Luxuries are for when you're rich.

Buy back lower is a dangerous game. It eventually stings us all. You could spend your life stressing over charts and taking L after L hoping to get a big score someday, or you could relax and chill while holding some BTC and live a happy life knowing your bags will end up alright. I do sort of agree with your advice to sell some though. Everyone should have enough fiat on hand to where they aren’t stressing about their BTC.

Probably the same eclipse I saw when I was living in The Netherlands. (It was a Wednesday).
I think it was only partial, near full from there, but enough for the surroundings to go eerie blue dark.

Pretty decent view at the time (good sunny weather) and I used many sunglasses on top of each other to take a photo. No idea what happened with it though. Probably somewhere in the loft.

I know this post is late but just returned from my excursion
to totality land. The internet was very spotty up there, so didn’t bother
posting till now back home.
This was using a Canon on a tripod.
The real experience is the moment of totality when one takes off the
eclipse shades and sees it in all it’s glory. 4 minutes of mind numbing awesomeness. Hard to put to words.
We cranked up the “2001 A Space Oddessy” opening theme at
the moment of totality. (“turn it up louder bro!!”) I even got weirdly emotional.
F**king absolutely amazing life experience.

GO BITCOIN

Great stuff right there!
Once-in-a-lifetime-experience (just like Bitcoin)
Next time (LOL) you got to turn down the exposure for an even more awesome ecliptic shot.
But the photo is as good as a trigger for remembering the experience, anytime.

I'm OOM (Out Of Merit), so have +1 WOsMerit from me, at least!

Tip: Google on explanations for solar eclipse by flat earthers, if you need some good laughs Grin

I think you mistake me for Biodom. I have never sold any "AMZN, AAPL and TSLA"

[edited out]

Not sure how you still got that part since I realized the mix-up and removed it shortly after posting, while your response is 1.5 hours later. But it proves my point whether it is you, Biodom or anyone else selling assets for dollars.

Anyway, it is up to each individual. And I get the restraint putting real bitcoins as collateral. However with bitcoin ETF's like IBIT/FBTC we have now entered legacy finance in which it is common practice for many decades, severely reducing risk of getting rug pulled IMHO.

Hongkong is in the process of launching a Bitcoin-Spot-ETF.

Hongkong was touted in the media last year as the new Crypto-Hub. Now they will probably be the second continent with a Bitcoin-Spot-ETF.
And what about Europe? ......in 5 Years, maybe..........or........10?

https://cryptorank.io/news/feed/94129-hong-kong-set-to-introduce-bitcoin-etfs

As far as I know, Europe has its own BTC ETF, and it was approved much earlier than the one in the US, and I think South America had its spot ETF before the US too (Brazil).

Quote from: https://www.coindesk.com/business/2023/08/15/europes-first-spot-bitcoin-etf-lists-in-amsterdam/

The Jacobi FT Wilshere Bitcoin ETF is regulated by the Guernsey Financial Services Commission (GFSC) and will trade under the ticker "BCOIN."
The listing means Europe will see a spot bitcoin ETF traded before the U.S., despite dozens of applications to the Securities and Exchange Commission in the last few years.
London-based Jacobi Asset Management has listed Europe's first spot bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) on Euronext Amsterdam nearly two years after it was first approved.
