Just for once I'd love to read a criticism of Bitcoin that came from someone who understood Bitcoin, understood finance, and understood economics. The best argument that I repeatedly see against Bitcoin is that government's could just make it really hard to turn into cash. You'd still be able to do it, it would just be harder.  But instead we get the same stupid boomer nonsense over and over:

It's not backed by anything.
It's all just made up.
It's all going to zero.
Tulips.
No intrinsic value.

Blockfi has been good to me. I keep some of my BTC there for the interest. The drawback, of course, is they hold your key, but they've been very reliable.

ETA: I also recently withdrew some from there. Worked fine except for the expected bank clearance delay.

I bought in $2k over the last week, then it dropped a bit. I'm not worried much at all. I expect it'll start going back up. I'm in for the long haul with this anyway.

I always get a kick out that argument.  The US has printed more money in the past 10 months than in the previous 100 yrs.  Yet people still think the dollar is a superior currency or store of value.  That internet thing is never going to catch on either.

Haha yeah.  Bitcoin doesn't have the luxury of being backed by empty promises from the financial geniuses in Congress.  lol
I can understand that people don't come up with the solutions themselves. I didn't either. I had to read smarter people explaining it to me. But to be 12 years into this Bitcoin thing and for people to still be posting the same arguments is just so tiring.

Bitcoin is backed by something. It's backed by the size and power of the computer network that secures it. It's the second largest computer network ever assembled, after the internet itself.

Bitcoin has intrinsic value. Its intrinsic value is the blockchain itself: in immutable history of transactions that cost tens of billions of dollars of electricity to assemble.

Can we name another asset that isn't backed by anything? How about unsecured bonds. It's only a market in the tens of trillions of dollars, backed by nothing but the full faithful and credit of the issuers.  So anytime you see someone make the argument that Bitcoin is dumb because it isn't backed by anything, you can rest assured that their knowledge of finance and economics is so immature that they're not even aware of the existence of unsecured bonds.

Wow. Check out this 58 million BTC options trade.

Deep pockets and balls of steel.

https://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-options-bet-on-36k-58m-profit



On Oct. 30, someone (a single trader or small group) bought 16,000 contracts of Jan. 29 expiry call options at the $36,000 strike for 0.003 bitcoin (BTC, +2.04%) per contract, according to data shared by Deribit. The initial investment or total purchase cost was 48 BTC, or roughly $638,400 as per bitcoin’s price back then.

At press time, the $36,000 call option is drawing a price of 0.1060 bitcoin on Deribit. At current prices, which haven’t changed much in the past 24 hours, and assuming the position is still active, the trader appears to be sitting on a gain of 1,648 bitcoin or $58.2 million.

There isn't one.  6 Hr was the closest thing to it maybe if there was one...That OP read something on the internet and someone conjured up a way to bend the rules of Head & Shoulders reversal pattern.  Bitcoin is consolidating in this range.  It is in all probability neutral at this time for the short course and considering the bullish environment surrounding it, and your brother and cousin not asking you about how to buy Bitcoin and FOMOing in with a swirl of money, I anticipate more upside potential.  YMMV.

Bitcoin has value outside of the apocalypse.  We've watched it go from worthless nerd infatuation to $40,000 mainstream financial instrument, all without the world ending.

Your argument isn't one against Bitcoin; it's simply a statement that an apocalypse is bad.

uh, no, not really. What you are saying is that barter is going to be preferred for exchanges in a shtf situation, essentially living like the pre-industrialized world. Barter is incredibly inefficient, it's why gold and silver were used as money. Good luck storing large amounts of oil, food, and water.

It's on.


eToro said it’s so overwhelmed by demand by newcomers who want to trade cryptocurrencies on the exchange it has temporarily boosted the amount new users have to put on deposit to discourage them from joining.

The platform, which mainly caters to "social" or beginner traders, raised its required deposit level to $1,000 from $200.
The number of new registrations and the volume of deposits and trading on the platform hit all new highs in 2021, fueled by crypto, Amy Butler, global head of PR for eToro, said in an email to CoinDesk.
"We have seen huge demand for crypto, especially bitcoin," she said.
While institutional funds were the main driver of the bull run last year, this report of "unprecedented demand" by eToro could be a sign that retail traders are finally starting to jump in with both feet.
"In this first week of 2021 we have seen days with over 40,000 new registered users in a day and volumes of crypto trades at 10 times the average of last year," Butler said.
After notching more than a 300% gain in 2020, the price of bitcoin has already risen more than 35% this year.

What if you're holding other non-cash assets, like stocks?  Bonds?  Real estate?  Businesses?  Inventory?  Capital equipment?  Collectables?  CDOs?  Mortgages?  Leases?  Mineral rights?  Claims?  Patents?  Good will?

My point being that when doomers like HEATSEAKER conjure forth the amorphous specter of The Great Reset they only ever mention cash being compromised, not realizing that cash is a tiny fraction of all wealth.  Imagine that all of your cash was stolen tomorrow by the government.  How much would it affect you?  I have less than 1% of my wealth in cash.  But doomers don't understand that, so they make ridiculous claims that The Great Reset will somehow overturn the world by just fiddling with cash.  It's like they don't even realize what comprises the vast majority of wealth.

My question was rhetorical of course, in an attempt to get HEATSEAKER to really think about what he's saying, and to contemplate whether it makes sense or not.

You just have to jump in and be patient. I bought another $100 of BTC monday afternoon at 31,500 during the bid dip, it went down another 1500 then started climbing again. Its at 37,900 now.
Or you can wait for the next dip. Its something that needs to be watched if you want to time it. I only watch frequently for buying opportunities.

Download tradingview, use indicator exponential moving average for 21 days. Set a limit order next time there’s a downtrend. There’s only been one daily close below that, but there have been plenty of wicks below it.

Likely why it will never make it there again. Not off the table, but unlikely because everyone and their closest kin will back up the truck after this run.

I'll say even sub-$20k at all will be difficult.

Basically, someone figured out how well BTC follows a logarithmic regression.

The bottom band is much higher confidence as there are thousands of data points in the data (all of the daily closes in the green band area).

The top band is a little lower confidence as it only has the three blow off tops as data points.

However, the chart historically is very good at showing good accumulation zones, and sell zones. Whether it continues to do so....we'll see.

Hooray for logs.


I, for one, would welcome $10k bitcoin again.


Likely why it will never make it there again. Not off the table, but unlikely because everyone and their closest kin will back up the truck after this run.

I'll say even sub-$20k at all will be difficult.

I mean we had these exactly same comments in 2017/2018...


Sure...But this time... it's DIFFERENT!

At least I didnt completely take those drop targets off the table...

However, the chart historically is very good at showing good accumulation zones, and sell zones. Whether it continues to do so....we'll see.

I knew I should have bought more when it was $1.  I have a nice bag but could always be bigger.

I'm trying to get up the nerve to transfer my coin base holdings into my ledger X.

I feel like I am one typo away from losing it all

The Ledger Live app is pretty intuitive and foolproof. Just take your time.
You can always make a small transfer first to practice.
