Bitcoin ripping towards the all time high. We seem to be pressing up against the high end of this declining trading range. If this breaks out, we’ll be headed into new price discovery territory. It’s close to happening. No idea what will be the catalyst that sends us through the sellers, but I know I won’t be caught missing out on the face melting rally that is coming by setting sell orders now.

I can't begin to imagine the amount of turmoil Bitcoin will cause on all social media platforms when Bitcoin finally breaks out

I'm so excited 😅😅 I have a lot of my friends I need to laugh at

While it is indeed fun to laugh at doubters, remember that the best revenge is living well and killing with kindness is a good way to turn a negative into a positive. Instead of laughing at your friends for not getting rich with you, take them out for a nice night on the town and buy them a fancy dinner.

Well said sir

Are those friends with ETFs (and not a real "thing") bitcoiners or not?
They think that they are, but I think..not, but I keep it to myself...mostly.
It keeps the relationships where they were before, which is probably good for everyone involved.

Of course there are levels, and surely it must be the case that a person who buys bitcoin price exposure through something like an ETF or other ways that they might not be holding their own keys is better off than a person who has not.... and surely the person who has bitcoin on an exchange may welll be even closer to owning real bitcoin since most exchanges allow the withdrawal of the bitcoin - self-custody has mostly not been made illegal yet by some of the desperate financial and/or regulatory control freak twats .

.. and I say all of this without conceding that holding some or all of your own coins (private keys) is an even higher status, which many people (I am not going to say all) should be aspiring and working towards achieving... yet, many of us likely know people who are not quite ready, willing and/or able to handle their own keys and personally, I believe that those kinds of people still have rights to try to own bitcoin price exposure and the inferior bitcoin-related products in which supposedly someone else is holding their keys (that is if the someone else actually has the bitcoin that they are supposed to have)... ..

Second: #asking for a friend: What skill does our dear precious Phil have? I have a few ideas, such as choosing (and propagandizing when) to invest in government bonds and/or other cash-related products? .. ok. o.k.. am I being too mean.. I would not want to presume too much in regards to the reference of "skill".

Just think about it. Phil is a marine veteran of 65+ y.o., all his kids have passed away and he holds strong, still has fun with the wife, he is a coiner (OK, DOGE too, but...), (used to be) a miner, and his Buddy-breaking skills are unmatched. That combination takes some skill, doesn't it? You've got to give him that.

BTW, 'Phil' rhymes with 'skill'. Cheesy

I don't remember Phil ever saying he was a Marine, he was a Sailor.

-Semper Fi

Yes, you're right, I somehow thought he was a marine... Sorry Phil... Still, a military man though, so my point above still stands.

Original post edited & corrected, thanks.

Fair enough. I can go back of making fun of him.. since I no longer need to worry about him having had been a marine (or even a navy seal).. I was getting a bit worried for a second that I might have had gone too far.. not that he might not end up "going postal" at some point... I hope not, but never say never.^**
