bitcoin is experiencing a bear market now, housing is on the verge of entering bear market territory...
Cash sitting in cash is another problem though...
Your question cannot be answered constructively because:
a) you did not specify the amount
b) you did not specify the specific real estate opportunity.
c) your daily expenses are unknown
d) do you have mouths to feed?
e) whats your cup noodle stamina level?
f) what is the amount of savings left AFTER your investments?
g) what are your debt obligations?

any advice you get without the details is generic advice and therefore probably inapplicable.
Why?
Real estate has far more variables then btc.
BTC only has 2 variables, up or down, reasons usually come after the action and rarely before.

Do a personal stock take first, ensure there is enough for daily necessities and debt obligations for atleast a year or 2, put some in real estate in city area and half of that in crypto dont pick one over the other.

Do not go into crypto overnight, hedge yourself on atleast 5 levels.
1 is today's price (x)
2 x-10%
3 x-25%
4 x-35%
5 x-50%

that way if you hit 5th level you aint completely sore.

To add onto the pricing of oil... there are HUGE oil ships parked in the sea the size of small countries... nationalization of assets would be a good call for such assets as they are only going to profit the elites anyway.

The reliance on oil has always been the easy solution but it is not the only solution. The problem is the politicians are not paid to solve problems, they are paid to politik problems. Europe has ample land, order solar panels from china and put em up like no tomorrow and watch what happens. China's factories can churn out panels pretty fast. The poorer regions could use this as a source of income for the richer regions. Solar efficiency is increasing despite the funding for solar being well below the R&D budgets for fossil fuels. There are prototypes of over 50% efficiency, the current solar cells in market are only around 15% efficient right now.

There is still sufficient time to shift from fossil fuels before reserves dry up... oh and theres a shortcut too if the earth doesent matter, just buy from the other oil producing countries, countries like the UAE have tons theyre sitting on.

All of this wont happen though... heres whats going to happen instead... largely nothing will be done to address the supply issue. Some supplies may be arranged from alternate suppliers but they will be inadequate. Fuel prices will continue rising. Daily items prices will sky rocket. In some countries the prices of groceries tripled during early days of covid and continue to rise till today.
"You will own nothing and be happy" know where that comes from?
The money printer that was turned on during COVID will continue the after effects of 'inflation'. If this does not show why FIAT is a failure i do not know what will.. This is why BTC exists and is a hedge against inflation.

EVs will not solve the problem because the problem is where does the electricity come from? Many times a major chunk of it comes from fuel...

I am optimistic that the problem of energy is addressable on a global scale without fossil fuels but skeptical that any major country has the guts to move away from fossil fuels dependence (bhutan is a good pilot case study on green energy as a major source of energy)

Hello all,

Hope to get some inputs from miners, not resellers here.
With the current pricing of hardware even after the drop, the ROI has gone from <1 year to 5 years on paper, this essentially means it will never ROI if btc stays at same value as difficulty will continue to increase, why is anyone even purchasing hardware at this point? Yes i know the btc might go up yada yada but i might as well put money into btc directly instead of mining hardware which is far less complicated..?
As a miner i feel so conflicted right now, what are the other miners doing?

what happens? ill feel sad bout my current btc im holding, then ill buy some cheap corn and go back to sleep

if its too good to be true... it probably is...
Applies everywhere,

Buying hardware? Check
New Coin? Check
New ICO? Check
New DAO? Check
Some very good deal? Check

Hello!

How would you value used bitcoin atms being resold as new and as used?
Specifically im looking at buying some used BATMThree machines.
E.G. for used typical hardware the price is reduced by half (not gpus or miners). When i had an ATM custom made it cost me around 3k usd for new but these are selling for 6k as a starting point.

Anyone with firsthand experience on these machines?
Does the software charge any commission for transactions?

well the same could be said for usb miners but we all know how that panned out

buy btc now... when your 400 becomes 800 you can buy a second hand miner

well u gota pull out the slabs of the local electricity company, theres too many in india for me to get it for you as i do not know where u r exactly.

cost of data centre hosting and any special terms for hosting? ie different rates during diff seasons

pls send me details of your hoster, want to do due diligence on them.
Any other costs at hosting? Deposits ? Payment in advance or arrears?

bump!
Graphics cards wanted!!

exactly, yet the hype is huge for buying these jpegs at inflated values... NFT's have great potential if linked with IRL but as pure jpeg only, whats the point?
So you own that NFT, forget a second chain, you can save the same jpeg on the same chain and name it something else, viola!
NFT for games ok.... sure... maybe....
NFT for irl stuff, definately a good case but has failed on many occasions

i was searching for nft games prior to stumbling here... funny thing though... you can see NFT's traces years ago and nothing major recently in bitcointalk?
They do not even have a thread here.... is there any other resource to read about the up and coming games?

And proof of past work is more important for larger jobs... if you go for smaller works they will not impact you so much. try looking around at free lance websites like upwork.

You do not have to offer your services for free... you can start at sites like fiverr and offer cheaper variations of your services for a start, very basic stuff and build up from there. Creative jobs like designing are even more 'customized'. every customers requirements will be different and therefore product different. Just because one person liked your service it does not have any significant impact on how the next customer will perceive your service... this will apply regardless of free or paid. You may end up with false praises in free services which would only work to keep you illusioned.

i do not think its worthwhile to be staking ETH. You are actually risking your eth to losses for a measly few percent. Better to lock them up somewhere and keep it safe.

i would not buy this unit at that price... ull never roi at that cost unless btc shoots to maybe 300k

Hello there,

does anyone have a 1030 4gb mining? Wondering what output it gives...
