It's been almost 10 years since I started entering the world of Bitcoin and at no point have I learned to predict what will happen to the price within a few days. I don't even try anymore. But despite this, I have gained a sense from experience and can say within a given year what the behavior of Bitcoin will be, based mainly on the 4-year cycles. But any of the OG can do all this, I don't want to brag about it.

The curious thing is that at first, when my friends learned about my investment, they were surprised that I had taken such an "unreasonable" risk, because they know me as a very serious person of science who does not trust any company and does not invest in anything. Over time, they asked me more and more and were surprised that I knew what would happen. Today they look at me like I'm some kind of God, they treat me with such respect and trust in my advice. They often tell me: "I still can't understand when Bitcoin was a few thousand dollars, you were so convinced that it would go over 100,000 within 7-8 years and not only that, but that it would also be approved by the US government and be traded on the stock exchange? How did you know all this? I didn't believe it would go to 10,000, and now things are going towards 200,000 and above. You deserve to reap the fruits of your wisdom and character, I'm happy for you! It's a shame that I won very little compared to you, but I thank you for your advice, because this is also of great importance for my life. I had friends who, unlike you, started with shitcoins and lost a lot of money. They did stupid things after stupid things, it's good that you told me to stay away from them."

I notice that the media and people have started to change their attitude towards Bitcoin, and the mocking "this bubble is going to pop up at any moment" has almost disappeared. No matter how ignorant most people are, I am increasingly seeing statements like "modern digital gold". This is enough to change the thinking of most people, except for the most ignorant, who will always be there. So the mass adoption is underway but still far from its peak.

Well, no interest rate reduction and no news about Bitcoin in the strategic reserve.  I guess today was a bit of a letdown in spite of having some real potential.  It happens...  I guess maybe in September we'll get the news I had hoped for today.  I don't know if it is genuinely taking them this long to get a strategy for accumulating Bitcoin together, or if they're taking the opportunity to stack as much as they can before unleashing the government's money on Bitcoin.  I tend to think they're filling their pockets to front run first, but with September quickly approaching, politicians are going to have to make a move soon.

Dear Bitcoin CEO!

I hope that you are in the best of health and you haven't canceled this cycle bull run. We urgently need 6-7 consecutive green weeks taking us to $150K+.

Looking forward to hearing from you soon!

Haven't used them anyways, but Fuck you Bitstamp....





Quote
We’re proud to announce that Bitstamp Europe S.A. received a Crypto Asset Service Provider (CASP) license approval under the European Union’s Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation.

......

As part of MiCA framework, the Travel Rule is now in effect. Starting today, you’ll notice the following changes when depositing and withdrawing on the Bitstamp web platform, mobile app, or via API:

For all crypto transfers: You must provide counterparty information and determine whether the address is self-custody or hosted by an exchange.

For all crypto transfers over €1,000 to self-custody wallets you own: A one-time ownership verification is required to confirm that you control the address.

For all crypto transfers over €1,000 to and from third party-owned self-custody wallets: These will be unsupported while we work on a secure solution for verifying third-party ownership.

This happened months ago on Coinbase. For self custody they had 2 options - signing a transaction or sending dust to verify the transaction. Both didn't work! For the second opition I received a message to send more dust to confirm the dust. I tried everything including their stupid AI chat but I wasn't able to withdraw big sums and was forced to make multiple 1000€ withdrawals. So for now I rely only on Kraken.



And Happy ATH everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!

I tend to try to resist over emphasizing the importance of big round numbers. But on the other hand, they are meaningful to human beings and human beings make markets so, you know, blah blah, etc.

So what I want to say about this one is it sure feels different to me this time. This just feels like the prelude to the show. Don't want to spook it or anything.

Thanks to Trumps crazy politics, USD/EUR crashed so hard, that from 2 year high it plummeted to 4 year low with perspective of anothe 10% crash in the coming months. BTC/EUR price is now only 79 000€, while the ATH was nearly 106 000€. It is hard to get excited about seeing the vegeta again. Cheesy

my meager understanding is that the only constant in the universe is the speed of causality (aka speed of light). time and space are malleable so that light always travels at lightspeed no matter the reference point

...and my head hurts from just that.

the quantum stuff is just like next level crazy but man i gotta admit some of the coolest theories come from it

No worries. It doesn't make your life easier if you even understand all that complex shit  Wink
There's probably no gain from it apart of "mind wanking" (that's a simple translation of what i am used to call it).

Consider: A photon (light) is massless. Only massless energy can travel at speed of light.
Question: How can a black hole make (massless) light disappear, then?

Einstein and his Partners in science were brilliant, but they defined some laws that just don't match recent, scientifically proven observations.
We are at the beginning again. But don't dare to question the established laws of physics. Dog bites tail...
So, if you are already mad, wrapping your mind around these matters could bring you joy.
Otherwise... You don't want to get mad, do you?  Cheesy

You are confusing Newton laws with General Relativity. Namely, Einstein shows that light is affected by gravity. The whole theory so far is confirmed by many sources. The main open problem  is what exactly is the structure of the space fabric.  On the topic of black holes there is a lot of discussion, see e.g.

I know everyone will find some reason to be skeptical and critical. And there will probably be a good reason. But to me, this is another historic moment for Bitcoin. What were the optimistic assumptions about Bitcoin's global success say just 4 years ago? For me it consisted of the then unrealistic dream of an ETF being approved and the even more utopian idea that there would be significant buying to influence the price. All the bankers and heads of financial institutions were against Bitcoin. Until the head of Blackrock turned around and became one of the main proponents of Bitcoin. This happened 1 year ago and we can see how the purchases are very significant and increasing over time. Not to mention what Michael Saylor is doing.

The second utopian dream was for the US to stop the war on Bitcoin and recognize it as an asset like gold. Who could have believed that the US President would speak positively about Bitcoin and take up legislation to favor it? It sounded absurd and delusional. I personally believed it, but to be honest I thought it would take 10-20 years. But it's now a fact and today marked the beginning of something unprecedented - the US owning bitcoins and building up a significant reserve. People who are Bitcoin activists have been put chairs of key commisions. Of course, this is just the beginning of mass adoption by individuals and institutions. But it is now certain that it will happen and that it will take much less time than I thought.

As usual the day traders are so short sighted that they consider this as sell the news thing.  But for me in the coming years the door for significant growth is wide open. So I think it is right to congratulate ourselves on this expected success. We are not just lucky gamblers, as some people think. We are visionaries who have confidently invested in most cases 100% of our available resources. We've endured like soldiers through all sorts of crashes for several cycles with harsh winters and temporarily sunk investments. But unlike the mindrust we have not broken. This has built us as individuals with strong character, and helps us in other aspects of life. So congrats to the whole WO gang, especially those who posted encouraging posts even in the most difficult times.  I would like to give  my sincerest thanks to LFC_Bitcoin and El duderino_ for their unwavering optimism!

3% to USD ATH and less than 1% to EUR ATH. Not bad after the traders were left behind.

I guess it will recover in several hours. Too much buying pressure for the bears to achieve anything more significant than a few hours 3% dip. The next incoming target is 150K and only a black swan event can delay it further this year.

Every time during the long bull market after the halving, the same story repeats. The eternal conflict between the right way to profit through long term hodling versus the newbies' quest to get as rich as a hodler in 1 day by using long leverage 10x+. There is no way both groups can win at the same time. Without following the long position data it is clear to me that when the price starts to skid, i.e. every 1% rise is followed by a 1%+ decline, it is clear that the monkeys on the branch are too many. They don't actually allow the price to rise despite the good news and the supply shock. But when some fud news hits and the long positions start rumbling, it's a forerunner of an immediate rise, because the noobs don't have the money to bet on longs so soon. Thus there is only one winner of this battle and that is us hodlers. While we are aiming for a 100x+ profit for example, they don't know exactly what they are aiming for because they are going to lose it anyway. In the last correction more than 2 bil were liquidated. And what is the portrait of such a trader. He bought a phone the other day, installed a trading app on an exchange, read about cryptocurrencies, short and long positions  in the evening and today he starts trading. I've seen a lot of people like this both on the internet and in person. Noobs like them lose everything they started with. This video is for such a noob shorter, but it applies with full force to leveraged longers Smiley

Powell said, ‘We’re not allowed to own Bitcoin. The Federal Reserve says what we can own and we’re not looking for a law change. That’s the kind of thing for Congress to consider but we are not looking for a law change at the Fed.’


So what he actually means is that under the current administration, there is no law that allows the Government/Federal Reserve to own Bitcoin. Obviously that could and possibly will change under a much more cryptocurrency friendly Trump administration.

Honestly I see no reason for such comment except to Create FUD.


His job was to Cut interest rate and give excuse why it could be paused in the future.

The Fed doesn't own gold either. The U.S. Department of the Treasury does. Trump never said the Fed will buy Bitcoin. He said the Treasury will. So this is just another FUD attack from the sen. Warren camp. I don't know how, but I'm sure Bitcoin is hurting their personal finance interests.
