G36 says

So you care about 6 figures but tell us you would have sold "everything at 18k". You make no sense :) keep trying.

You're joking right??? 18K is the price of BTC in US dollars. At this moment I would dump it. You make no sense in assuming people's finances. You tout a $10k gain which is great, but it's a nothing burger in the realm of making money. You're bragging about something I did when I was 23. Come back to this thread when you've made 6 figures off your spreadsheet from the current trade you're pumping. Gloat about it. I'll take it.

Until you've sold and gotten the money, you've made nothing. You have no gains. I hope you don't learn the hard way counting funny money before you actually capitalize on it.

Why would you sell Bitcoin at 18k when this is just pennies for you? I thought you only care about 6 figure gains.
You dont even own one Bitcoin am I right?

USD is looking to keep dumping which is very pos. for crypto and atm the same for the equity markets https://invst.ly/s-w9s
The equity markets are looking to give back all they took yesterday until the $USD index lands in true over sold area crypto is
a min hold with buying on the dips. The pop has just started, technically BTC is a beast with strength.

How Blockchain Went From Bitcoin To Big Business | Forbes

https://www.youtube.com/embed/ahWcUZfSufI

BlackRock is the world’s largest asset manager with over $7.4 trillion dollars in assets under management, according to the manager’s website.
https://www.coindesk.com/blackrock-ceo-bitcoin-global-asset
BlackRock’s CEO of BlackRock Larry Fink said bitcoin has “caught the attention” of many people and that the cryptocurrency market was still
relatively small compared to others. "Fink said the "nascent" cryptocurrency asset class can possibly “evolve” into a global market asset"

Just to be upfront as a trader not an investor I am momentarily considering going to cash and the main reason is this chart of the DX https://invst.ly/t0wg-
USD is BTC's quote currency, not hard pegged like most all fiat in that regard but is independent and floats, however as a quote currency USD strength does matter imo.
USD is oversold via RSI on the daily so there is a decent possibility of some impulse buying to prior support and if this ends up being the case crypto should give some discount pricing. If I were just looking to get into this market I would consider waiting until price breached the last high quoted on the exchange you are using or price to tilt to some degree
TBD.

I went flat yesterday which has payed dividend with discount prices across the board about 7.5% so far however there are decent supports lower at 18000/17800/17500/16800+/- so depending on the price reaction, the USD among a few other indications if/when those levels are hit Ill start testing some buys. I am shaking the dice that prices are still stumbling a bit so I can load up on as many XRP as possible the 11th or there about on my Kraken acct for the Flare Networks’ airdrop of Spark tokens 1:1 on Dec.12. The XRP coins need to be on a participating platform on the 11th then can be taken off and/or sold or what ever on the 13th. Ripple will take a snapshot of all proper holders sometime on the 12 and the your acct will be credited with the Spark tokens sometime after.

Thanks for reminding me. I will move my XRP to BinanceUS.

Very bullish for Bitcoin

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-12-06/fomo-among-big-investors-may-support-bitcoin-s-polarizing-rally

“The multitude of regulated crypto exchanges and custodians has eliminated the ‘career risk’ for institutional investors,” PwC’s Hong Kong-based Global Crypto Leader Henri Arslanian said in an interview."

"JPMorgan Chase & Co. strategists point to the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust -- which invests in the digital coin and tracks its price -- as a potential window into wider crypto ardor beyond the retail demand from Millennials."

"The Grayscale vehicle’s assets have swollen to more than $10 billion from $2 billion at the start of December last year, its website and factsheets show. It drew almost $720 million of inflows in the third quarter, according to an investment report, which said institutions -- dominated by hedge funds -- accounted for 81% of the money coming into the firm’s digital-asset funds.

Guggenheim Partners LLC last month reserved the right for its $5.3 billion Macro Opportunities Fund to invest in the Grayscale trust."

Mainstream financial institutions suddenly getting into Bitcoin spooks me.

The whole point of Bitcoin is to be completely independent of their control.

We dont have to like mainstream financial institutions.... but that doesnt mean we should not allow them to make us wealthy by driving up the price. I cant think of more bullish news for Bitcoin's price. I like to remember there were people that predicted Bitcoin will go to zero :) :)

I think the point of Bitcoin is to be a store of wealth / digital gold.
Since its built on a permissionless blockchain that requires no permission to join and interact with, anyone can participate (banks, criminals, us, hedge funds, nasdaq listed companies, billionaires, even DF)

Discount pricing on the way?
https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-price-bearish-alert-as-140k-btc-from-mt-gox-may-move-for-the-first-time

Just think if you had a bunch and I mean a bunch of BTC on hold in litigation coming to you and the courts finally opened the floodgates
handing them over. Keep in mind those coins had a value of $400/$550 at the time they were locked down. Taking major profit anyone?

Lol. You guys have no clue and that's why these threads are hysterical to me. You stomp on people telling you truths and then the truth looks like it may occur. It's an unregulated market and you have ZERO clue where it's going. No one does unless they hold 10-20% of all BTC or are part of a wealthy group holding it.

G36 had no gains for 3 years while pumping it under an old username a couple months back (took a break so as not to be obvious). Now it's "gold 2.0" that doesn't have that great of a track record compared to many stocks over a 3 year period dating back to December 2017. It's flat and if you panicked you lost your ass big time in the valley. Basic index funds have outperformed BTC the last 3 years, and by a lot with almost zero risk.

Hell shitty old gold blew BTC out of the water the last 3 years. I will say Cash is more honest about BTC of the 2 users that supposedly have invested in it on this site with the above link. G36 is holding from 3 years ago and is now starting to get nervous that it's going to plummet again not having made a dime on BTC... errrrr.... gold 2.0... lol. Enjoy the ride.

140k coins will move the market. I said $18k wasn't a bad selling point and got shit on. G36 needs to stop acting like I don't know what I'm talking about and dishing out ad hom and not answering any of the massive flaws with BTC. Good day.

Thanks DF! Keep em coming!

one more to add:

"Basic index funds have outperformed BTC"
>>>>REALLY? missed the fact that its up by 9,000,000%? Not a surprise, DF.
"an unregulated market"
"roulette"
"Nuclear EMP goes off"
"Would have sold everything at 18k"
"I am good with 9%"
"Bitcoin is not backed by anything"
"artificial scarcity"

From December 2017? Lol. I've made substantially more over that time period in other investments. Like 6 figures... lol. Keep trying though. Are you trying?.... lol. Hard to tell. You haven't addressed one thing on that list.

Many stocks start in the pennies and gain more than BTC and eventually pay dividends. The last 3 years with BTC has been dead money. Didn't even come close to inflation. Gold 2.0.... lol. If it's better than gold it should have beat it. It didn't and your "wisdom" would have people believe gold sucks (I don't purchase metals) yet it outperformed BTC since December 2017. By a lot.

You can keep digging your ho...... sorry, making a list about all the flaws with BTC. I don't care because I don't gamble. I leave gambling up to morons and just make $$$$.

Heeey DF!

here the BTC performance since 2014. holy crap! Why dont you show us your screenshots outperforming Bitcoin, lol!

Wait, wait, wait. I thought it was 9,000,000%. Is it 17,918.98% or 9,000,000%? You're a walking contradiction dude. You're off by a magnitude of 502 from your "list" that you've addressed nothing like cowards do.

December 2017 till now BTC has been dead money as an "investment" or holding it. You advocate holding it. From December 2017 till today, you were wrong. It's okay to be wrong. I think you might be used to it hence why you've created a list of actual flaws and are too afraid to have a discussion about the flaws. You're scared. That's okay though, mom will get your meatloaf down to you in the basement soon.

Keep cherry picking though. If your screen shot is accurate, you're about to freak out and sell, and you should have taken my advice at 18k. Either way, I've still made more money over the December 2017 period till today than you would have. I don't have to pump on forums to get to sleep at night.

Hey DF, thats expected that you dont get it. Thats why you are called DF.

Remember, you earned your name for a reason.

I know, that will take a while to process for you, DF. Take your time!
I bet you dont get any of this. Thanks for supplying us with endless examples of why you are DF.

Feel free to provide the screenshot showing how you outperformed BTC. Any day now! lol f.ing lol

Nice DEEP Discounts coming for everyone The mid 17ks could just be a start 16K would be better...

Lo fucking L. You can just look at charts of the most basic index funds from December 2017 until today and realize your "investment" did nothing. Prove me wrong. Ball is in your court. A retard would understand this. As of this posting $18,185 (USD). You bought high and are probably buying high again. Again, mentally retarded people can figure this out. "Nah, $18k is stupid, it's going to $250k!" lol.

First Mover: Wells Fargo Bitcoin Briefing Could Signal Bull Run Intact

“Cryptocurrency investing is a bit like living in the early days of the 1850s gold rush,” according to the report from the Wells Fargo Investment Institute. “As we roll into 2021, we’ll be discussing the digital-asset space more – its upside and downside.”

That’s an explicit indication that even more attention is coming the way of cryptocurrencies, not less, as the calendar year rolls over.

As expected, no screenshot from you. You would not be able to outperform Bitcoin. As I showed, its up by 9,000,000% (last decade) and 17,918.98% (since 2014). Thats why we call you DF.

Try harder. Being wrong isn't a good look. You've got dead money from when you bought during the last peak of BTC. It's okay to be sad about that. You might have to wait another 3 years or never to get to break even.

Heeey DF!
so you no longer claim to have outperformed Bitcoin? Dont disappoint me, DF. I dont want to take it off the list. Lol

Bitcoin will eat gold's market share, according to JPMorgan
https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-will-eat-gold-s-market-share-according-to-jpmorgan

“The adoption of bitcoin by institutional investors has only begun, while for gold, its adoption by
institutional investors is very advanced. If this medium to longer-term thesis proves right, the price of gold
would suffer from a structural headwind over the coming years.”

Looking beyond JPMorgan’s analysis, there is clear evidence that institutional uptake of Bitcoin is rising. Grayscale,
a digital-asset manager, has recorded record inflows into its Bitcoin and Ethereum (ETH) trusts. Grayscale, Paypal
and Cash App are buying up more BTC than is being mined each day.
