I certainly believe the his primary intention for bitcoin was the decentralization literally a unique form of custodian unlike the traditional currencies and it subject to store of values but then, users was optimistic underlining it most essence on profitablity given it a less values for everyday use for transactions such as payments for goods and services. But I think this is just the beginning because generations to come will find this financial technology more convenient to be in used than the fiats because as the world evolves, so also the need of Privacies becomes everyone's concern.

Not a bad ideal buying shares of bitcoin through the ETF. As a non Tech who tend to be buying aggressively with a long term interest, it saves you a lot of stress and a key to insurances so that you don't get driven by Fomo or lack of management because there is a management structure in the firm of being a shareholder with the ETF.

You no need to that far bitting ur chest mate, na uncertain market way no fit dey predictable be this and no body fit give guarantee of their predictions rather for the long term onto say bitcoin don really show how the power of em volatility, lot of good sum of enthusiast predictions go com to pass. $150,000 dey promising to com true in the future probably before the year pass just as u talk but mate, no feel too relaxed and assured say e go com as expected because no on knows tomorrow inside the volatile market.

Take it as the forum url implies bitcointalk.org. Nothing much.

You have all talked interestingly but Miles2006, out this in thought that even those investing in a period of 4 years are still considered the short term investors because the period of their holding can not be compared to those investing ahead their retirements ba above 20 years or an average of 10 years.
Let's also understand the accumulation strategies of traders and investors are not the Same. Traders buys at any given time and sells at any cost while investors look out to buy at any price though but targets the dip and holds within estimated period of time while considering the market price before they can sell which ideally get those short term investors into fomo while long term investors remains focus because they don't intend to sell anytime soon.

It is necessary to be reminded so we don't forget too quick that bitcoin is sponsoring the forum and as the name implies bitcointalk is a platform primarily projected for bitcoin discussion. I guess every other discussion such as alt Coins is just a demo While it is officially prioritized for bitcoin.

I agree with you and everyone in the space of every other coins exempt bitcoin is prioritized on making profits While the intention of bitcoin as the eyeopener with the essence of decentralization are being neglected by many users which those Investing in the shit coins forget to consider if the coin they are Investing on could serve utility value in real life neither can it be considered a store of value because as investment is concerned, the asset should be expected to outcome a store of values of we must consider long term goal but unfortunately, those investing in the shitcoins are purely gambling and thought they are holding long term potential assets like that of bitcoin.

I see both guys being too playful with their speculations and I think they ma either making some mockery about the potential potential price of bitcoin. Looking at the date of their speculation, bitcoin has made over $19,000 in 2017 according to coin market cap historical data while Tyler is expecting $10,000 like it is price that has not been experienced but let's say his $10,000 expectation was as a result of price decline below the $10,000 which should be assumed to be one of those of us expecting recovery after price drops.
I would not want to be skeptic with John's speculation though, but I think his predictions was more of critic because by the June 20th 2019, $100,000 was extremely too high for the speculation when the current Ath as at then has not near even 50% of his $100,000 speciation talk more of $1,000,000. I feel John was specifically being a mock even and did not believe bitcoin will reach $100,000 in the first place.
Yeah, bitcoin is proven every skeptics wrong as it is devots to breaking Aths and because bitcoin has reached John's $100,000 prediction we may think he is one of the enthusiasts like we would always predict and expect higher price in the future. See... Not all everyone speculators are genuine, some are just junks. Although I don't know the state of mind of John but that $100,000 and $1,000,000 speculation seem to be a mock to Tyler's speculations.
Even we in today that has experienced bitcoin price at $123,000 in this 2025 believes it may reach $1,000,000 but that is seem too much to be expected and as for me, I am cool in the meantime hoping it will reach $150,000 to $200,000 in the short term but yet indefinite while $1,000,000 can be expected as we keep to advance in breaking higher Aths.

Maybe you can expect something different from that your friend who shutdown his reliable and quick return of source of incomes for bitcoin that the tendencies to earn income is uncertain of when it will come. I would not want to engage on quoting you or your friend wrong rather, I am on the stance to know if is your friend feeling good with the decision he made or not? Because I know as human we ought to need that regular provision of Incomes to sort out need which I know the uncertainty on bitcoin investment could not make provisions for those short term needs.
So I tend to ask, how have your friend been feeling since the While? I think your response would define it you are correct or wrong.

Op I advice make u too keep eyes down as others dey drop their opinions for here and believe e go also help u because of u really know the risks behind keeping it funds for exchange u for don let ur friend know am or u for no even bring am up here.
So the Koko be say exchange no good to store values for too long because the security network dey very poor to withstand some kind serious internet attacks and the custodian risk be say u as individual no dey completely full control of your private keys but the operative authorities.
So tell ur frnd to transfer em funds to the custodian wallet network where em funds go dey well safer for am cus there na only em go dey control the funds with full time of private and security keys.

I take investing on shitcoins to be memes mimicking on bitcoin because shitcoins are full of manipulations right from the developers to the project teams. They are literally a luring projects that speculates in the crypto ecosystem just to acquire values but all to no avail to profer investors any form of reliability like bitcoin does.
Bitcoin has proven itself back to back and still holding the kingship in the crypto industry and as a matter of fact that the market is uncertainty, the risk of Investing in bitcoin is only at it unpredictability while the shitcoins is project entirely surrounded with risks that you don't even know if the coin is still going to exists talk more of yielding good values.

There is no accumulating strategy that is better as Dcaing but the pros lies between investors sentiments and their discretionary incomes. Once you have a steady income flows with a consistent desire headed towards a specific target, you would even not care about the price but following your initiated buying intervals and Strategy has surpassed the state of being driven by emotional sentiments because they have the money in their cooperative partnership and has been structured in a long term. So they have no time to feel Fomo even on the Dip after buying on a higher price.
Panics and emotional sentiments are exhibitions of investors with regular buying. They look up to what price it is before they buys and are driven by Fomo because of their short term goals because they don't have sufficient discretionary incomes to keep them off from the volatile market before for a long term especially when the price is going bear.

If you are okay with the value of profits you have acquired as periodically you are a short term investor with Fomo, you can sell but you sounds well equipped to stil keep going for a longer time so I don't know about your financial background or state of emotions otherwise,  I will advice you don't have to sell just because you have feasibly made some profits.
Mind you, the bull run is not over yet meaning of you keep holding you will be chance to earn more profits.
But if at all whether you sold or not but you decide to buy bitcoin in the future, the market is always open for you to buy from traders who are 24/7 active to sell and buy at any given price.

Talk about possibilities to buy bitcoin in the next correction event, be known that out of the total 21M BTCs, 19.66M has been mined while we still have 1.34M are still unmined around the year 2140. Which means we have over a century for the total bitcoins to be mined.
So there is no need to be feared if you will still be chanced to buy after selling in the meantime. This is why we keep saying here that there Investors still have opportunities to buy and as it stances, there is no recognized late comers or deprivations of enthusiasts buying Bitcoin in the near future.

Welcome to bitcointalk.org generally called bitcoin and discussion forum. It is more than an institution because you can learn about bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in the friendly and more convenient way here ever than any other source. Users here will always be endeavoured to help at any course.

Don't feel too comfortable with the exchange Op otherwise you'll lost your money to the internet fraudsters because the crypto exchange providers could be vulnerable to be hacked and there'll be no assurance that you will be reimbursed but while the chances to be reimbursed from the banks maybe high, that of exchange will be limited. Of all you need to understand that banking is more reliable than the exchange if we also consider long term holding due to insurance while they are all regulated.

You really talked so genuinely. Some would say never, there is no going to be a replacement of bitcoin. Let's take that of  US $ which has muchly been an interesting global reserve currency but today, even the US governments are looking up to diversify into bitcoin for their federal reserve because the $ is fast loosing values and same time loosing it global interests.
Likewise the gold, it has also been an utmost attractive point of commercial value for store of values but today it is bitcoin era and everyone governments and institution companies who understands the concept and possible evolutions of digital technologies believing the reality of digital assets are fast approaching to invest on it.

Perhaps other advanced assets ahead of bitcoin may come to existence because the world is free for developments that would be of the interest of the people but for now, it is unimaginable to figure what that asset to sideline bitcoin would be. That is get me agree with you that the dominance of bitcoin is going to last like it is going to stay in that first class asset position until then the one to overshadow it will be discovered. For now, let is assume it's an illusion until it is realistic.

Make we just say Op no construct em sorry to be aligned with crypto if not, I think such case of em experience for happy for the crypto space onto say bitcoin also get Atm machine spots way users dey go do their transactions or paying for services in some of those crypto retail service providers.
If we never get such advanced bitcoin Atm technology for our country now, we fit get am in the nearest future. So e go help us if we take early note about the risk of given others the chances to help us on the Atm operation fit lead to the loose of our funds. So make we just assume sm say wetin we dey talk about here na risk to loose our funds whether na fiats or digital finance.

Okay I am not going to be concerned about how many bitcoins and been mined and unmined. We just need to understand that the factor of Dcaing on accumulating strategy won't get to restrictions because even while all the 21 millions has been mined, treaders and short term investors can still be supplying for those who want to buy and then there is going to be highily inflation on the purchase of bitcoin.


After the total 21 millions of bitcoin is mined, there will be no space for mining and will not longer be earning on the mining tasks rather, they will still facilitate on integrating the complexities of the blockchain with also the efforts to validate transactions as usual and make assured the security system is solid enough for reliability.
Then they will be earning rewards from the above services with the high fee of transactions.

Investors state of emotions differs and everyone just have to take decision as much they can handle. We all know the good fortunes  behind long term investment but the truth is that not everyone can do it and those Invested for short terms does not mean they are of the wrong decision. The only problem about it is our inflows of incomes that would not be a problem of warranting us to sell without undermining the price just because of emergency needs. If we have made some good profits in the short term and we could not resists the Fomo when price drops just after In a high price, of course we can sell, take profits and ready to buy at the Dip again.
