BTC was made for you, you go boy.

who said i didn't lose money, the amount of money i lost is more than the current assets i have 😪 but no problem having BTC here it will be back soon 😁

Was the dollar losing 11% of it's value part of that plan?  Or BTC losing 20% of it's value from the top as well?
Wake the fuck up.

The main problem with those super early BTC holdings was rather that lots of Holders had no technical knowledge how to store them properly and lost them over the years.

Let me explain it this way.
Imagine you have $1M and want to invest in a property.
Hardly you will hear, be careful and only invest what you can afford to lose.
With Bitcoin, however, we always hear that advise.
I understand that Bitcoin is something intangible (compared to a property) and we surely in the beginning of the process of its adoption.
But again, that phrase about affordability to lose casts a small shadow.
I don't believe it is related to chance to get scammed or lose passphrase or seed phrase.
My portfolio is 75% Bitcoin and I'm with BTC community.
Just curious how other people understand the term in question.

they gotta keep their ETF price coherent to the BTC price, that's the game

TRX belongs in the same list as BNB, as they are centralized trash under the umbrella of known scammer Justin Sun. Leaving only BTC, ETH and SOL. And we all know how ETH and SOL got their position in the market.

That chart really shows how consistent the November–December trend has been for Bitcoin. Every red November lining up with a red December isn’t a coincidence anymore. The question now is whether 2025 follows the same pattern or if BTC finally breaks the cycle. Either way, it’s a good reminder to factor seasonality into your BTC strategy.

Bitcoin is still in the adoption phase - so not investing your entire life savings is still smart. This is true for anything though.
You should definitely be moving your savings out of the bank though, and storing it in a diversified portfolio (index funds, BTC, precious metals).
This not only protects your investment, but helps people not stress over individual price movements as well (i.e you shouldn’t be checking the price of an investment daily / weekly)

I bought an eight ball for five BTC back in the day.
Luckily, I bought 10 BTC.

BTC/ETH/SOL
XRP if crime season continue

Fiat always follows the same cycle Introduction → Overprinting (War/Debt) → Hyperinflation → Return to Hard Money.
The difference to today is:
- There is no hard money
- All money is fiat
- BTC can‘t be money…
Table is AI slop, probably accurate‘ish, take with a grain of salt.
|Name|Date|Lifetime|Outcome|
:--|--:|:--|:--|
|Jiaozi (China)|1024|~80 years|Inflationary Collapse. The first government-issued paper money. Initially disciplined, but subsequent wars led to overprinting, effectively destroying its value.|
|Chao (China)|1260|~90 years|Hyperinflation. The Yuan Dynasty created the first exclusive fiat (banning coins). Unchecked printing to fund empire expansion led to hyperinflation and regime instability.|
|Stockholm Banco (Sweden)|1661|6 years|Bank Failure. Europe's first banknotes. Issued in excess of metal reserves to lend more money. The bank collapsed, and founder Johan Palmstruch was sentenced to death (later imprisoned).|
|Massachusetts Scrip (USA)|1690|~60 years|Depreciation. First paper money in the colonies, issued to pay soldiers. Lacked tax backing initially. It depreciated significantly until the British Parliament banned new colonial issues in 1751.|
|Banque Royale (France)|1716|4 years|Bubble & Burst. John Law's attempt to replace gold with paper to stimulate the economy. Fueled the "Mississippi Bubble." Collapsed catastrophically, ruining French trust in paper money for 80 years.|
|Continental (USA)|1775|5 years|Default. Issued for the Revolutionary War. Lacked tax backing and easily counterfeited. Value collapsed to near zero ("Not worth a Continental").|
|Assignats (France)|1789|7 years|Hyperinflation. Backed theoretically by seized church lands, but overprinted wildly during the Revolution. Publicly burned in 1796 to restore order.|
|Bank Restriction Pound (UK)|1797|24 years|Successful Float. Gold convertibility suspended to fight Napoleon. The Pound floated and depreciated but stabilized the economy. Britain returned to the Gold Standard in 1821.|
|Confederate Dollar (CSA)|1861|4 years|Total Loss. Hyperinflation exceeding 4000%. The currency ceased to exist after the South's military defeat.|
|Greenbacks (USA)|1862|17 years|Redemption. Issued without backing for the Civil War. Depreciated but survived. The US returned to the Gold Standard in 1879, redeeming them at face value.|
|Papiermark (Germany)|1914|9 years|Hyperinflation. Gold convertibility suspended for WWI. Post-war reparations and debt led to the famous 1923 hyperinflation, requiring a total currency reset.|
|Bradbury Pound (UK)|1914|14 years|Emergency Success. Treasury notes issued to prevent WWI bank runs. They functioned as fiat until 1925 (return to gold) and were physically replaced by Bank of England notes in 1928.|
|Pound Sterling (UK)|1931|Ongoing|Permanent Float. Britain left the gold standard during the Great Depression, initiating the modern era of floating fiat currencies for the UK.|
|US Dollar (Global)|1971|Ongoing|Standardization. The "Nixon Shock" ended the direct convertibility of the USD to gold for foreign central banks, creating the first worldwide fiat currency system.|

You don't (yet) have the psychology to invest massively... Set up a DCA... even €10 per week. If you are worried, monitor the price and make trade-offs as you go. But, frankly, what is the risk in doing this?
Final advice: do your own research and try to understand how bitcoin works. Once you understand, you will no longer have any doubt that, in the long or very term, there is no chance that BTC will fall to the thresholds you mention.

I thought that when BTC was $7

Someone actually did this recently.
A BTC whale purchased 10,000 BTC for $1.54 (probably March 2011) each and sold it for $1 billion on Oct. 4th 2025.
Also in July (2025), another whale cashed out $8Bln he paid $80,000 for around the same time.
There are some of these guys out there.....holding for a crazy TIME.

If you put $100 in Bitcoin in 2010 you would have sold it when it hit $2k. Because that is what most people did. Obviously there are exceptions amd they are the "whales" of today. But most people who were putting $100 early on sold it the first time it jumped to $200/BTC or $2k.

BTC and solana.

I imagine it's blocked because you cannot prove it's yours? That email is just telling you that BTC has increased, it doesn't mean you'll ever see a dime. Why can't you verify yourself? I had to show my drivers license, front and back, awhile ago or I too would be locked out.

If the KOLs are right, then BTC has a problem. The 2025 ATH and average price weren’t anywhere near high enough to counter the halving and the loss of dollar purchasing power. The average came in roughly $11k too low. Keep this up and Bitcoin mining starts looking unsustainable.

Mt. Gox customers received distributions of roughly 15% of the BTC they held on the platform. That will certainly be a large haircut for them however they were forced to HODL 15% of their stack from 2014 until 2024, many of them are probably doing just fine now as it’s definitely worth significantly more than they held in USD terms at the time.
