Got my first 0.005 BTC today!

The next bitcoin halving is set for April 2028. If you believe that there is a 4-year cycle and that the halving is a key date, create a written plan to take some money off the table in stages once BTC exceeds its ATH and up to the halving. The key thing is to make a written plan now, print it out and keep it in your office or bedroom. You don’t want to get caught up in the euphoria of a bull market and abandon your plan made back when the market was down.

BTC is 25% of my portfolio

Keep stacking BTC it’s the best asset you can accumulate and hold

Why would i use bitcoin to send money for an average of 5 dollars per transaction when i can just do that for free with my current currency?
Being decentralized doesnt mean anything when the currency is purely built on hype. Let me know why we dont use BTCcash, insteads of regular BTC, if you indeed want to use it as a "currency"
Supply doesnt really mean much if no one is going to use your currency, it just becomes another rare asset like a vintage watch, or a painting.
Well its been like 20 years and there are no steps being taken to make this a currency, only a hyped up asset like NFTs. Hype is the keyword, not useful.
Do i trust my currency? Why shouldnt i? If my currency fails, the whole world economy will fails. Money will become obsolete, at that point i might aswell invest in food and bricks to built a shelter.

BTC price drops below the realized price before it goes up. Currently that number is around $52k - I think we might see the high 40's over the next 2 to 3 months.
In case you're wondering - Bitcoin Realized Price is a key on-chain metric that shows the average cost basis of all Bitcoin currently in existence.

I agree with you.
But many posts and comments i read in this sub are from people who own btc and eth and they always advice on btc and eth which theres nothing wrong with it.
But they also trash talk alts they might never heard or research about or alts in general without any explanation.
If you're gonna tell me to buy BTC and ETH because they are safer and alts are more volatile, i will take it as an opinion.
But trash talking alts people talk about or ask about without giving facts on why they believe they are trash then why even comment?
Give facts and a proper answer based on facts on why certain alts mentioned in this sub are trash and ill reconsider my position on them. Not all are trash.
Yes they are more volatile, yes they mostly depend on how btc will perform. But do you know what might happen for sure? In the end its gambling for all of us. Just some bet on btc and eth based on past performances which is a safe gamble. Others bet on other coins that they might have researched a lot about or not researched at all. Its gambling with a more safe approach, an almost safe approach and a not safe approach at all.
Cause who knows if tomorrow btc might go to 0 or if alts might gain more attention or if something else entirwly happens? Nobody..
So we are all speculating. But when you comment on why you believe something is trash or why something is good you could at least give an explanation with facts not a trash or not answer...

We've owned since 2011. You say, "Yay, time to buy a little more" and you feel good about it.
What you don't do is buy when it's $10 per BTC and sell at $20 because you made a 100% profit. Sigh.
In 2026 terms: just buy and hold if you can. We've been through so many cycles. We've also done a bunch of stupid things, and now we're doing fewer stupid things. Buy and hold.

I would not sell the BTC you've accumulated, but would redirect current allocation to more favor stable investments (although DCA at these prices is attractive). BTC is 1 percent of my Investments, and though I am trying to grow the amount I hold, the other stuff grows so fast, it will probably never be more than a couple percent at best.

Are you maxing out your retirement accounts? If you’re maxing it and just make so much income you can casually (you sound casual about this) invest more in BTC than retirement, then awesome!
Otherwise you are under investing in retirement (likely over paying taxes), or don’t have it set to low cost sp500 fund or something.
It’s about balance. We would have to know monthly income and the balances of the accounts to have an idea if they are out of balance.

I went through a lot of mental exhaustion trading futures and haven't had a lot of success. I switched my startegy upon listening over and over again the last 15 months or so that there is no and likely will not be an alt coin season in this BTC cycle. Decided to move some of my capital to binance, picked an alt coin and analyzed it and started trading, did x29 in my tiny trial portfolio trading like I'd be doing big numbers. Polkadot, pretty much x15 at 15%, ONLY shorting and only catching it while it's falling after rebounds, super convervative yet super effective, Loopring was my first goldmine as it was a true shitcoin i read about in the past. $250 to $7256 in like 9 months, so I'll keep going with that.

I changed my name a few years ago. I'd rather foolishly left BTC on an exchange. They fucked up the name change, and I was locked of my account for over six months as they screwed up over and over again. I had no access to my coins, and ended up initiating legal action just to get them back. Never again. I buy, I transfer to a cold wallet. You never know what a company is going to do, and there are minimal legal protections if things do go sideways.

That is because institutions short BTC futures while being long on spot. That is why there was no blow off top. Get used to the new way because there will never be another blow off top in BTC as long as institutions are in it. Never heard of this? Look it up.

So, if I understand this correctly:
1) You transferred money from your bank to Coinbase.
2) On Coinbase, you bought BTC and requested a withdrawal to a [Crypto.com](http://Crypto.com) address to “someone else’s” account.
3) [Crypto.com](http://Crypto.com) won’t release the funds to this “other person” because it knows (it really does know!) that someone else sent them.
And you’re surprised you have a problem? Are you really surprised? Please tell me I’m just imagining this.

You're wrong, you can use DEX aggregator like https://switcher.finance/, it has better rates than CEX and no counterparty risk (I lost 6 figures on MEXC when i deposited BTC to just convert to USDT..)

About that fixed supply.
Can the community help me understand the following issue:
True, BTC has fixed supply, however by the nature of how BTC was made, the more time will pass, the more and more BTC will get eternally locked/lost. This is not a speculation it is a reality. Coins get lost since day one and almost never do they get recovered (including Satoshis whole stack). Users die and dont leave the keys, HDDs and seeds get misplaced or forgotten etc etc.
What happens when the supply gets to a point that majority of BTC will be lost ?
Without employing and futuristic scenario where a quantum super-computer would crack the encryption...does the network have any other mechaism of combatting this gradua reduction of circulating supply ?
Because lets be honest, sure in the short run coins getting locked/lost forever are helping all the rest of the participants of that economic system by increasing the value due to reduction in supply while demand stays constant or grows. However as with any tulip bubble, when too many coins are lost and not enough hodlers are still in the play, at that point usually the majority creaes a new system/switches to a safer alternative.
Thank you for any helpful input as i have been wondering about this for a long time now!

There's not much to explain...
The alt fans use, use case logic and especulative future adoption relying in the future.
The rest that only focus on BTC and ETH don't explain anything because there isn't nothing to explain either... Since they rely on past events to not choose anything besides BTC and ETH, their ALT armor hás taken so much hits that there isn't really anything left that will repair it.
Both aren't really wrong or right. It just that both bet into the future with different perspectives, one based on the past events (BTC/ETH) another based on future events like adoption (Alts).
