I get the feeling we're going to go on the 4k <---> 2k crab extravaganza ride one more time, but after that it will finally be over. BTC.D is breaking down, Bond Option Volatility Index is breaking under 75 which historically coincides with BTC going parabolic, QT ending, ETH stronger than ever fundamentally, ETFs still holding incredible ammounts of volume, liquidity is better than ever for majors (BTC and ETH,) despite all the belly aching about "forced selling" and alts in low liquidity conditions during exchange bugs. And the yen carry trade's ghost will never change the fact that the global banking system is starting to print money again, and will be issuing cheap credit to grease the wheels of the economy.
All in all, yield farm and chill, delayed gratification can be a good thing, and ETH is both the future of, and maybe even a little bit the present of France.

Hilarious that people think quantum will only be an issue exclusive to BTC .
Out entire Internet , weapons security , power grid, etc will be vulnerable..

Buy on Strike, then send to Trezor (or other) when the amount is sufficient (around 0.01 BTC) to avoid small UTXOs

Title says BTC is under attack. Body says MSTR is under attack. Those two are very different, OK? Body also says the attack is done to buy at discount. Well, I do not mind buying at discount, but the title says it's done to steal my future. Who tf are you?

I know this question gets asked a lot, but I'm genuinely confused right now. I've got some funds I want to put into crypto trading each month, but I'm really worried about two things: hidden fees and random account locks (I've heard way too many horror stories about that). I need a platform built on trust and stability.
Here's my current breakdown of what's out there: Coinbase is beginner-friendly, but fees are ridiculous, and there are tons of complaints about account restrictions. Kraken has more reasonable fees, but many users say the interface isn't very intuitive. Binance. US has a good selection, but seriously watered down compared to the global version. BYDFi seems to offer really low fees, and they openly provide Proof of Reserves and have an 800 BTC Protection Fund for user asset safety. Crucially, they support NOKYC withdrawals, which dramatically reduces regulatory friction for active traders. The community says it’s great for high-frequency trading.
I'm leaning more toward a platform with solid asset assurance and lower trading friction. What platform do you actually stick with and why? I need some real talk from regular traders.

How much BTC you got at what age?

Bitcoin seems to be breaking down a momentum indicator which it has couple of times before and each time 60-70% of correction has followed thereafter.
The first time it triggered BTC went from $10,000 to $3500 and second time it went from $55000 to $18000
Now this suggests a crisis of some sort in next few quarters and translates into poor economic growth and poorly for equities...now if the message that BTC is communicating is correct then since US equities back the treasury markets via federal receipts, instead of treasuries getting bid up in a risk off environment maybe Gold gets bid up.
So all in all be negative on BTC in near term.

Wake up, Eat, buy BTC, Sleep, repeat…

BTC is under attack by huge institutions to steal your future

Texas better up their power grid if they want to fully embrace BTC

Most ETH was premined and was given to insiders. Every BTC was created through work.

So… Texas didn’t buy BTC but a promissory note to buy BTC.
Ok.

Bitcoin's stability compared to the rest of crypto is exactly why it dominates casino deposits and withdrawals. Most crypto casinos support 10-20 different coins, but BTC still handles like 60%+ of transaction volume.
From the operator side, platforms like SOFTSWISS that power crypto casinos support Bitcoin alongside 20+ other cryptos, but BTC is always the anchor. It's the one coin that has deep enough liquidity and reliability that casinos can actually hold reserves in it without worrying about waking up to a -40% day.
The irony is Bitcoin was supposed to be P2P cash, but now its best real-world use case is moving money in and out of online casinos lol. Fast, pseudonymous, and widely accepted. Not the revolution people imagined but hey, it works.

it's called Cash Create. BlackRock is legally obligated to sell the BTC the moment the retail trader wants to cash out. It's not like they can hold the BTC in their portfolio and give the client the current BTC price in exchange, the government forces the process. Works in reverse aswell.

Wild week for BTC, but all this volatility just reminds me why I keep looking at real utility plays. While macro drives the chart swings, builders keep building. AIOZ is one of the few actually expanding its AI layer regardless of Fed drama. LOL.

Hi all, I’d like to contribute with a short comment about investing.
To start with, education is the most important factor. The more you know about any type of investment, the lower the risk of being scammed or “losing money” due to uninformed decisions. Every form of investing has its own rules, characteristics, and level of risk — and all of them can lead to either gains or losses. We can all agree that investing €100 in BTC, an Apple stock, gold bars/coins, a government bond, or an ETF like VWCE or SXRV is not the same, nor will these investments deliver identical returns over 5–10–15–20 years.
My best advice: Diversify for the LONG TERM (5–10–15 years):
1.ETFs (VWCE, VUAA, SXRV)
2.Gold (bars and coins)
3.Blue-chip stocks
4.BTC —Only invest in BTC money you are fully prepared to lose — and only after proper education and using a secure hardware wallet.
Disclaimer: Investing carries certain risks. The value of an investment may rise, generating profit, but it can also fall, potentially resulting in a partial or total loss of your capital. Past performance does not guarantee future results. That’s why education must always come first before making any financial decision.

BTC is a good liquidity pump, or was.

It was a respectful question.... I'll answer it the same. Essentially investing in anything is to improve your life and those you care about.
1. I just turned 50, so I'm in the last 25%of my lifespan. Time to enjoy some profits
2. How much BTC are you going to need to live well when it hits 1m/ full coin?
10x from 10k to 100k.... does not mean it can "easily" 10x from 100k to 1m. Please research market capitalization.
$10k → $100k (10x)
+$1.71 trillion
$100k → $1 million (10×)
+$17.8 trillion

Any different, as it effects BTC, at the end of the day?
It means people are selling, expecting this is little more than a dead cat bounce.
