BTC, SPX6900

Marketing can be good or bad.. I meant more generally, the next contender might simply get traction because of a good campaign. Previous failures doesn't mean no future effort can succeed.
You're missing the point. BTC came first. A subesequent contender needs additional factors. Those factors might be luck, or marketiing, or good tech, or etc etc. It's not about what made BTC, it's about what might make its successor.

Couldn't you replicate the Satoshi factor by allocating all token supply to mining, such that none was held by the creator?

BTC has been moving unrealistically bullish this past few years, regardless of Trump's family involvement. I personally think it is massively overvalued but that is all up to debate. The "store of value" concept should, in my mind, be an asset that compensates inflation and capital gains, so you end up with the aproximatelly same value as when you bought it when all other factors are deducted. People say gold buys you approximately the same today as it did decades ago, relative to real estate and other valuable assets, but even gold is a taxable asset and for someone holding it for coupld of decades the tax implication is significant. But this is not the case with BTC, it is growing way pass that historically speaking. So the question is what value is BTC capturing, where is this value coming from? I think it will crash at some point, but if it doesn't it is yet to be blown out of proportions and we may see 500k in no time. Trump family is not the significant driver, in fact it may only be destabilizin factor when politics are brought down on crypto once again.

>People believe it does. (Demand).
Why do they believe in it? I think you all fail to understand the point. They believe in it as a monetary system. If BTC assumes the position as the global monetary system, belief based growth (speculation it will become the monetary system) no longer exist. That is because it has BECOME the monetary system already.
>It has an even more finite supply than gold
You can't be "more finite". Things are finite, or they aren't. You are confusing it with scarcity. Which again does not increase demand. That's just a measure of how much of something there is.
>Despite accumulation by large entities it’s still the least concentrated, most distributed coin since it’s the oldest (less chance of a company getting control of 50% and changing the code… which would devalue it immediately anyway so why would they).
This does not speak to an infinitely increasing value. It just speaks to the value of a monetary system using this.
>It can be sold or transferred… even millions or billions of it, in less than an hour. Try that with gold or treasury bills.
Correct. That's why it will be a monetary system. That doesn't mean it will infinitely increase in value. That's not how a monetary system works.
>It can be brought across borders… even millions or billions of it… and stored completely in your head while doing so… nothing to “find”… try that with gold or treasury bills.
Again, that's an argument why it will be a monetary system. Not an argument why it will increase infinitely.
I don't think you understand what I am talking about. I am not denying BTC's use. Or denying it will become a monetary system. Or even denying that it will outperform stocks in the near future. I am denying the misunderstanding that BTC can somehow increase infinitely. It is a monetary system, or a store of value. In either case, it cannot produce real returns infinitely. This is because it cannot, on its own, innovate productivity.

Because $10 of oranges has the same risk profile as BTC? No… they don’t.

Becauase BTC is not a brand of purse or shoes.

Between 20-50 BTC is the right amount to retire with depending on a list of parameters. No more, no less than that.

What's the point of saying that the company is trading below NAV of its BTC holdings?
Cant the company just dilute infinitely?

I'm also considering at least semi- retirement in 5 years. Whats ur strategy to de-risk? I'm 70% in an World Etf, 15% in a tech ETF & 5% BTC. I'm considering selling some of the World ETF & parking the cash in Gold. No real HY savings options in my country, we have time- deposits, I have a little cash in a 30 day one at 3.5% 🤷‍♀️ I woukd prefer to DCA down my current ETFs, they've done well & I've been aggressive with them but if there's a big crash like 40 or 50% + I'll be so screwed. No state pensions or anything in my country & it's expensive. Any suggestions to de-risk would be helpful, the current market is making me uncomfortable.

BTC is a work of genus.

I’ve been predicting that BTC money will eventually flow in to gold for a couple of years now.

Hello,
I believe that the sale of TikTok will
Fall through.
I have been buying the stock since ~13.
My average is 9.15.
I am interested in the TSLA/SNAP and BTC/SNAP ratios.
I believe that SNAP is quite undervalued at the moment and in the event of a TikTok ban or Sale (due to valuation announcement) the stock should go up quite significantly.

I’m similar. I got into silver and gold first, but did a silver trade in BTC for $60. I proceeded to forget about it for about a year until I heard it had a huge jump. That $60 in BTC I got way back then is worth nearly $40k now. After I started following it more closely, I’ve been DCAing every paycheck. Same amount into each silver, gold, BTC, and stocks.
Keep it up, and we will be retiring pretty happy when that day comes. :)

I referred my friend. He had to open an account using my referral link and make a $100 crypto purchase. After 30 days we each received a $75 BTC reward. Either your friend fucked up using your link or he never bought the $100 worth of crypto or it hasn’t been 30 days.

From your questions it's clear to me that you will lose all your money regardless of what you do.
At this point, the investment with the best ROI you can have is your financial education. So, start there.
And if your money is burning in your hands and it must absolutely go to crypto, start DCAing periodically small amounts into BTC and nothing else.
The rest of altcoins are for trading. You don't "invest and HODL" them like you would do with Bitcoin. And for trading, you need to learn skills from different areas and work on yourself, which is a slow process. 
Forget about this altseason. You will fall into FOMO, you will make all the possible mistakes that novices do (like "waiting the fed annnouncement" to buy in the top of the trend just for selling later in the first correction you encounter) and **you will lose money in every single bull run,** which will flow into the accounts of the professional traders. You are their liquidity.
Not trying to discourage you, but go step by step. Learn on financial education on one hand (*The richest man in Babilonia* is one of the best first books to get started), and if you want to learn about trading, I suggest you the book *The new trading for a living* from Alexander Elder, which is introductory but dense. You will learn about market psychology, indicators, how to operate like a non-amateur trader, risk management and a lot of stuff. It's not a book about pre-cooked strategies, but more about giving you the tools to survive.
Focus on learning, practice what you learn, educate yourself about the crypto ecosystem ans keep yourself updated about the projects arising in it, and you will be ready to tackle the next altseason (yes, there will be more in the future) with more decent survival chances than you have now.

I plan to relax while BTC hits $200K.

Got to love the guys who think they can call how high or low BTC will go. Meanwhile they always end up screwing themselves and losing money.

Hey! cool to see you’re starting so early, and with such a solid base. I also started when I was around 19 and had to go through multiple losses to get the hang of this
Tbh your port is solid. I am personally not a fan of XRP, mainly because of the Ripple board and CEO. I don’t like em. But I mean, people have made money with it, and the community it’s loyal AF for better or for worse. So just do good research on it.
The rest of your portfolio is solid. Can’t go wrong with a solid portion in BTC, and imo ETH is the next best option.
I would personally look divide the XRP port to 5% SOL and 5% SPX6900.
SOL exposes you to the entire Solana ecosystem pretty much. And since it’s the fastest growing blockchain network after ETH, I think is another really safe bet.
SPX6900 is a movement coin mocking the S&P500, and making a similar index seeding other crypto projects. It’s natively an ERC-20 token, but it has become chain agnostic through bridges with Solana and Base. TLDR. It’s an index exposing you to the rest of the crypto ecosystem.
Do your research always. You have a solid base, so as long as you don’t deviate too much from it you should be good. Don’t look at charts too much. Hodl strong. And be patient.

Thank Binance. They sent a shit ton to their market maker Wintermute this weekend and probably still are. They can’t manipulate BTC anymore because it’s too big so they have to manipulate others.
