- Celebrate the first release of the Best of the Mint series with the 1916 Mercury Dime Gold Coin and Silver Companion Medal
- Struck at the United States Mint facilities in West Point (gold) and Philadelphia (silver)
- Quantities are limited—Don’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to collect this special edition 1916 Mercury Dime Gold Coin and Silver Medal Set
- In honor of the 250th anniversary of U.S. independence, the Mint curated a list of 21 historic coins spanning our Nation’s history, from its founding in 1792 into the 21st century. Following public input and expert recommendations, five Best of the Mint coins were selected. The Best of the Mint is a series of 24-karat reissued gold coins alongside silver medals featuring modern designs inspired by their companions. The selected coins include: the 1916 Mercury Dime, the 1916 Standing Liberty Quarter Dollar, the 1916 Walking Liberty Half Dollar, the 1804 Silver Dollar, and the 1907 Saint-Gaudens High Relief $20 Gold Coin.
- The 1916 Mercury Dime Gold Coin and Silver Medal Set is the first of the Best of the Mint semiquincentennial series.
- The 1916 Mercury Dime Gold Coin’s obverse (heads) depicts Liberty in profile facing left, wearing a winged cap symbolizing freedom of thought. Inscriptions are “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and “1916.” To commemorate the semiquincentennial of our Nation’s founding, the coin features a unique Liberty Bell privy mark with the numeral “250.”
- The coin's reverse (tails) depicts a fasces (a bundle of rods) to symbolize strength through unity. The battle ax and the olive branch represent America’s military readiness and the desire for peace. Inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” and “ONE DIME.”
- The Best of the Mint Silver Companion Medal to the 1916 Mercury Dime, also known as the Winged Liberty dime, features a design that continues from obverse to reverse that recalls the period of 1916 through 1945, when the Mercury dime was in circulation, representing years of great change and upheaval, both foreign and domestic, for the United States. Observing that during this period the United States would enter two world wars, Liberty is depicted in both defensive and offensive positions.
- The obverse (heads) design extends to the reverse (tails) with rays emitting from the tip of the sword, symbolic of hope at the end of conflict. The Great Depression is represented by the Hooverville shacks, and the swirling waves in the background represent the Dust Bowl. The inscription is “1916 – 1945.”
Gold dime is .9999 gold, 1/10th oz. Silver medal is 1oz of .999 silver.

I’d be willing to say that the best might be over with BTC (5,000-10,-000% gains).
Yes, BTC did in a sense fail its first round attempt at let’s say competing with Visa (use case), we all know it more closely resembles gold as a store of currency.
But it still is a multi trillion dollar asset held by pension funds, publicly traded companies and global etfs.
If you can weather the storm, I do believe the macro thesis makes sense, and even those who bought at the top, with enough time will see a healthy return.
(I personally do not own any BTC in my portfolio, I am watching it like a hawk with an open mind)

The majority of people in any forum involving BTC or MSTR on any app or website slander Michael Saylor. Idk how you could think the consensus opinion about him is positive.

It’s backed by BTC from strike. Very minimal loan though.

Can you link these posts you speak of? I searched his name in the BTC sub and few things come up for months.
Might be some AI/bot stuff or a smear campaign. IDK. No one is perfect but there are many more deserving of negative press than he.

bought 3x short on BTC and MSTR, 3x should be enough to handle volatility

I come from $BTC world, and obviously everyone says to run your own node, because don't they enforce consensus rules? Isn't that what happened when BCH forked? Most nodes didn't switch?

It's just weird to me to hear that the nodes are just not useful for the security of the network. Someone explain please.

I sold all my remaining crypto in December and put it into SP500. Working out okay so far. Not interested in making home run swings so shorting BTC is not of any interest. I just lost faith in crypto and couldn't see a world where it would continue to gain momentum.
It might long term, but I decided it wasn't worth the small portion of my portfolio anymore.

Buying Bitcoin now is a no-brainer.
It is well known that Elon has long had an interest in btc.
Anyone in his current situation would be foolish not to borrow against his massive holdings and lock a percent or two of his wealth in the one place that nobody can ever take it from him. In the one currency no institution controls.
There are other reasons beyond his interest.
Future AI will use BTC as currency; Elon will want his bots sufficiently liquid to do weird things and also get him out of trouble - in a hands-off, plausibly deniable, way- if he ever needs them to. Even the smallest chance that he might end up in jail, get kidnapped, need to suppress certain information, take out an adversary, etc. will justify that weapon alone.
But the real reason he’ll be buying is greed.
Quietly buying millions of coins before announcing it and pumping bitcoin through the next 10x growth may be the easiest way for him to cross the $2 Trillion mark, which of course he’ll soon want to do.
Thoughts?

I wanted to buy BTC when it was well below $1000, but it was next to impossible for me to do it here in Canada. Not saying it was impossible, but it was practically impossible where I lived. The information about how to do it wasn't widely available, and the exchanges I could access in Canada either weren't up yet or were mostly really shady. I'm happy I did not buy before I eventually did circa 2020 (initially via QBTC / The Bitcoin Fund), because any earlier and I likely would have used, and probably would have lost everything on, QuadrigaCX.

I think Bitcoiners should really be thanking Saylor instead of slandering him. What if Saylor hadn’t commissioned his company to buy BILLIONS of dollars of BTC? What do you think BTC would be worth today? Make no mistake about it. Saylor is a net positive. Anyone that is for BTC and against Saylor is creating civil war confusion and should really evaluate their perspective. Imagine if Saylor just came out tomorrow and sold every Bitcoin he owned? He’d literally destroy it all together. The carnage would be of biblical proportion.

oh I see. that is a valid point. Saylor's position is that any attempt to time the market would make him a short term trader and he wants to be a long term investor.
current bottom around $60k is roughly matching the top of the previous cycle. just like the 2022 bottom of $16k was similar to the top of the cycle before that. so if Strategy survives another cycle or two all BTC they have now would be cheap. so, yes, currently it looks dumb to have some much BTC that cost him $100k-$120k. arguably, this will be the price in the 2030 bear, so no big deal then

Depends what Trump says between now and then. Currently id say bloodbath (peace talks collapsing, Israel continues bombing, Trump threats of US tolls in the straight, etc). It's been a busy weekend of bad news. STRC also depegged from $100 tied to BTC so that's it's own thing as well which may or may not play into a BTC decrease (which may shift market negative). That being said it might just as well pump green despite the world being on fire because the market seems detached from reality daily.

STRC doesn't need to go to $0 for Microstrategy to be in trouble. Microstrategy only uses STRC to buy BTC when it's above $100.
If it sits at $95-99 and never gets back to $100, then Microstrategy can't sell it to continue the STRC flywheel to buy BTC. STRC dividends will very slowly erode the value of MSTR through dividend payments while not providing anything back in return.

What it comes down is humans positioning for an advantage.
Everytime something works, there will always be people who want to do even better. So say Real Estate or Bitcoin or stocks do well. Then some guy comes along and says, give me your money because I'll do BETTER than XYZ.
So the game theory is this, if you give him your money and the asset does well, he wins. If you just buy the asset, he wins. The only way to beat him is to not give him money AND not buy the asset.
Michael Saylor has created a situation where buying BTC is better for him than you. Buying MSTR is better for him than you. Buying STRC is better for him than you. And generally humans like outperforming other humans, so most people don't want to give Saylor that advantage. The only way to not let him win is to not buy BTC, MSTR, or STRC.
Now why are we competing with some dude who we don't know? I dunno, but humans are weird that way.

I usually sell the CSP on Mondays and capture 30-50% of the premium by Wednesday so I BTC.

one more thing. the cycle top is hard to predict, it could just double, but there is no rule saying it cannot 5x or more this time around, so $50 bottom x 4 = $200,000 sounds right to me. last time it was 17k x 7 to get us the top. this time, it may only be a 4-5x and give us 200-300. But believe this, if you've been DCA over the last 4 years+, you'll be very happy. no other financial instrument will test your patience more than BTC.

Ya. We are sure. Dude sells a few BTC and then it’s end of the world. People need to relax.

People probably won’t realize how scarce BTC is until 2035 which is when it’s expected to reach that point.

Lol they keep trying to kill BTC and it ain't gonna happen.
