$RVV raised $56M… and the marketcap is only $6M 🤯
A falling wedge breakout on a project that raised more than 9× its current valuation is not something you ignore.
When $BTC finally reverses, low-cap narratives like this usually move first.
Keep your eyes open. 👀

There are also simpler on chain products that can tokenize risk and allow you to lever up for high risk, high gain, or hedge to protect the downside risk.
For example: Risk Protocol. It basically splits BTC/ETH on chain into risky and low-risk versions. You can swap one for the other and either hedge risk or double down on returns. 
Full disclosure: I am biased as I started working here quite recently. 
I'd still love to get your feedback, though. Cheers

Between 30% flat tax and 1% TDS, it feels like the government is trying to push people away from crypto. I still believe in BTC and ETH long term, but wondering if small monthly investments even make sense anymore?

I tried a few apps but most of them are overloaded with charts and random features. Just want something simple for buying BTC or ETH.
If anyone has a suggestion, please drop it.

I'm not 100% across the technical side. But I think the ETF works by people buying the ETF share at whatever market price BTC is at, give or take. Then BR needs to buy BTC to match the purchasers ETF purchase, so the ETF share is 1:1 backed by BTC
Then as people sell their ETF shares, BR sells equivalent BTC, maintaining the 1:1 backing
If BR held a reserve of BTC then sold ETF at market price, its a different dynamic and BR could profit off the ETF via a different mechanism, as if their selling appreciated BTC without ever selling the held BTC.. kinda just thinking through this as I type, it's not in the spirit of the ETF and maybe not compliant with say SEC or whatever ETF requirements

For many years people have been using paper currency which is only backed by your belief in the system and in politicians which are mostly scammers and liars, and they are happy to accept that as a valuable currency but they will criticize a currency programmed to have all the characteristics that make a currency good for store of value because "no intrinsic value lol" most people saying this don't even know what intrinsic value even means, this people are a joke.
I remember I had an interview with a bank to be a financial advisor, I raised the matter that I did not agree with them not allowing me to recommend BTC to my clients since BTC is becoming a widespread asset and companies like blackrock are integrating it, she went with the "no intrinsic value" argument, I said "You invest in government bonds, which are a promise made by people known to lie ofter to pay you a fixed amount of paper currency not backed by anything and which is printed constantly, how does that have more intrinsic value than Bitcoin?"
Her answer was "The euro has value because the law gives it value"
I said "Okay let me go fetch the local major so he can make a law stating that this table we are using is worth it's weight in gold, then we can just sell it and be all rich right? Since value is just something the law can give to an unbacked asset?" She didn't like my answer but had to argument against it, I said I was no longer interested in working with them if I had to work under someone who doesn't understand the concept of value.

Since today’s update, every time I try to change this widget to show BTC, it goes back to BNB trashcoin.
What is this shit?

Dear Bitcoiners,
I’m 33, a nurse from Austria who has spent over a decade taking care of others.
Now the roles are reversed and I’m the one fighting for my life.
Stage IV gastric cancer.
Total gastrectomy, two rounds of chemo, a “cancer-free” summer that felt like a miracle — only for metastases to show up in the peritoneum a few days ago. My left leg is paralyzed from peroneus nerve damage, I’ve had abscesses, an anal fissure, constant pain… and very soon the standard treatment options in my country are exhausted.
There is still hope in Zürich — an international team that offers advanced protocols (CAR-T combinations, targeted therapies, clinical trials) that are simply not available here. But the bills start pretty high.
I own some BTC — not nearly enough, the classic “I wish I had stacked harder” story we all know too well. Yet I still believe with every sat I ever held that this network, this money, this community is different. Real money in the hands of real people has already saved lives, funded refugees, bypassed corrupt systems, and given hope where governments and banks offered none.
A few dollars in Bitcoin can literally keep me alive long enough to see the next block epoch — and maybe, if I make it, pay it forward to the next fighter who knocks on the doors of this community.
If you have a couple sats that you can part with, please send them to:
bc1qhyqpuwdjtcqh67m6dkgpvqzdx84v6hwe8lguc3
Every single sat will go 100 % toward treatment and travel — nothing else. I will update regularly, on-chain proofs, invoices, hospital letters, whatever the community needs to stay trustless and transparent.
I’m not asking for pity. I’m asking the hardest money in the world to do what it was born to do: give power to the individual when every other system fails.
Thank you for reading. Thank you for holding. Thank you, from the bottom of my (now missing) stomach, for even considering this.
Still stacking, still fighting, still HODLing hope.

#Bitcoin heals in more ways than one.

If you plan on holding large amounts of BTC then yes it is. If we’re talking a couple hundred bucks you’re fine with Unstoppable Wallet or Cake Wallet or something similar and reputable (never use Trust Wallet and always DYOR) but I consider those types of hot wallets for short term storage and/or active use only for small amounts.
Large amounts as you build up more than like a thousand bucks worth I definitely recommend transitioning to a hardware wallet.
But you need a lot of research by the sounds of it. All the information you need is out there. Don’t expect people to spoon feed answers to every question on Reddit (I’m not being rude I’m just saying it will take a lot longer that way is all). It’s more helpful for you and us if you do research to learn and then come back with specific, focused questions.
Cheers

No I get that, for sure always immediately transfer it out. I just like it for buying BTC specifically due to the highest yield per dollar, really.

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
