BNY Mellon to offer bitcoin services, a validation of crypto from a key bank in the financial system

Bank of New York Mellon, the nation’s oldest bank, said Thursday that it will begin financing bitcoin and other digital currencies.

https://markets.businessinsider.com/currencies/news/mastercard-allow-cryptocurrencies-use-payments-network-2021-2-1030071595

Mastercard will allow merchants to accept select cryptocurrencies on its network later this year

lets make some guesses

"Mastercard said it will offer support for customers to transact in some select cryptocurrencies this year."

I am expecting BTC and ETH. Hoping for Cardano as well. Cardano is one of my biggest holdings.

No new ignores. I think I struck a nerve. Did I just spell out G's life? No half assed response yet?

WookieMan says

Staying in one place is like holding. There will be no generational wealth. There will be nothing. And life will have been pissed away missing out on experiences, people and places. Do the same thing over and over. That sounds like pure misery to me.

Also hoping they will add chainlink! I can't take all this winning!

You really don't understand do you. They'll digitize the thing you use to buy crypto $$$$. Crypto is dead when they want it to be. Could be tomorrow.

Is there a reason that almost every country and person has a keyboard that has Shift+4? The oil your car is filled with is Shift+4. You don't have gains, but if you did with crypto, you're gonna have to come up with Shift+4. You'll learn.

Yep :) good thing we have moderators here otherwise it gets out of hand and we get away from discussing mass adoption of Crypto. please stay on topic :)

It's sickening the dude says he is here to save everyone and he can not point to 1 legitimate supportive reply he has made in his story telling
that is anywhere near the ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ BTC story lmao... Notice he comes to shit mutt running ;)

I usually ignore his posts. His posts dont contribute to the topic but are personal. Not sure why Bitcoin and Tesla buying Bitcoin is such a pain point for him. He cant stop innovation and mass adoption. If you cant beat them, join them!

Power goes out tomorrow, how do you get goods? This isn't fantasy with Biden giving up our power grid. How do you trade crypto? What if your power comes on later and the melt down already happened. You need cash to feed your family. It won't recover after that. It was dead for 3 years after a normal market swing. All faith will have been lost in the very few that trade it. It's a fantasy guys. You don't answer questions about what you want people to invest in. It's worse than a time share sell.

You don't answer questions. Personal? Lol. I'm not sissy anymore? Oh that's right, grown men don't call each other that, they man up. I'll give you the flight information and not my name. Find me. Put me in my place. You won't. You don't have the fucking money to get to me. That's the best part in these threads.

The adoption by Mastercard and BNY caused a 7% surge in Bitcoin's price :)

the ultra bullish news for crypto just wont end. Get this:

"Amazon Preparing to Launch a ‘Digital Currency’ Project in Mexico"

"“This product will enable customers to convert their cash in to digital currency using which customers can enjoy online services including shopping for goods and/or services like Prime Video,” one job post said of Amazon’s “new payment product.”"

Soon, we can rename Cancun to Can-Moon!

This seems nutty to me.
Musk at least is entertaining.

1,000% guarantee he's out now. He printed himself $300M in a couple days. Might be playing with house money if he's holding anything still in crypto. Move the market and get out. Musk is smart. He also just has more money he can lose. He can lose it all and be wealthy again in a couple weeks. He's playing the crypto folks. They just don't see it and "think" it's "bullish".... oh well.

@WookieMan,
HUH? you think he's not planning on holding Bitcoin for the long, long run? Why would he invest 1.5B USD in Bitcoin? for a short term trade?

G36 says

Lol. To print $300M. You do understand how he can leverage that money right? Musk sold, get over it.

He took OPM from TSLA and the took your money. Brilliant fleecing.

Thank you Elon! (And Tesla shareholders). Buying $1.5B of Bitcoin to hold on their balance sheet long term was the greatest gift. A gift that keeps on giving.

1) It sent a big F.U. to Bitcoin haters
2) It is extremely bullish for the BTC price (50k Bitcoin incoming) &
3) It started a trend (more and more companies will follow).

But words alone are not enough. As a thank you, I will buy a Tesla with Bitcoin logos once I cash out :)

WookieMan says

This is interesting.

The Bitcoin ledger is public, so even if the transactions are all from anonymous public keys, it should possible to see which public keys bought $1.5 billion worth recently. And then to see if those same public keys sold.

Anyone know Tesla's Bitcoin public key? Maybe there are many, but still.

Its fake news by the Bitcoin hater WookieMan. Not a single source....just "the voices".

Of course Tesla bought Bitcoin to hold for the long term. Bitcoin haters seem to have a hard time dealing with the fact that Tesla bought Bitcoin in an unprecedented way. ($1.5B worth in Bitcoin)

and this is not fake news: Bitcoin's big moment: Mastercard jumps on the bandwagon

This.

There's no way to track it even by volume to an individual. Could be some other whale at current prices and volume, it's not just one purchase. Anyone thinking he came in to hold $1.5B in BTC with TLSA money is nuts. It's a public company, the board would toss him if he lost significant money on this. He couldn't do this with other stock either, it's the wild west in crypto world. He can fuck you and there's no consequence.

He's trolling the crypto people. 100%. He has the money and is smarter than them. The guy has automated landing rockets for fucks sake. He's launched more rockets then almost all countries. If one doesn't think he's capable of a pump and dump with $1.5B, you've gotta start paying attention.

Either way I can be proven wrong because TSLA has to report earnings and financials. And maybe Musk is not as bright as I thought. But do the math on ~38k to almost 50k when investing 1.5B. In and out people. He printed $200M+ and knew his buy would pump it. You can move markets big time with $1B.

People also need to get off the percentage gain. It's not about that at all if you have a lot of money. You don't chase 10 baggers on $10k. You make a small cruise ship out of thin air by scamming people into thinking you're interested in a financial product at a measly 10-15% gain and then sail the boat.

He's just playing people. It's kind of funny. People follow Musk and he's literally said he thinks the human race is fucked. One of the wealthiest guys smoked pot on a meatheads podcast. Do some of you even understand what he is?

Better to be a Tesla & Bitcoin hater than a fluffer fir either of them.

I disagree. Being a Tesla and Bitcoin holder is very profitable :)

The question is, which major company will be next to invest billions of USD into Bitcoin and hold long term on their balance sheet?
Apple? Its huge bullish news for Bitcoin/crypto holders!

I agree with G36. More institutions and heavy hitters are realizing that crypto as a revolutionary and brand new asset class is only getting bigger, so the smart play is to accumulate as much as you can and hold on for the long term.

exactly!

When people are under the influence of alcohol or weed can take weird decisions 😃. Elon is also promoting Dogecoin which has no future. It’s just a pump and dump, he has cult following on Twitter and taking a little bit of weed brings out a genius in him, he tweets, follower buy and coins go up. But Elon has helped in changing the narrative many more corporate CFO might be inclined to follow Square,PayPal, Microstrategy and now Tesla. But not sure if Companies like Apple , Google or Microsoft might jump so soon . Tesla corporate & fiscal governance has always been questionable in the past, only one person takes the decisions so not surprised they have taken bets in one of the risky asset. Will be interesting to see how this pans out in future.

No. G36 isn't pushing "crypo' he is pushing Bitcoin specifically. There's a difference.

Nope, I own Bitcoin and other top market cap coins.

Same was said about tulips.

Tesla never bought tulips and put tulips on their balance sheet. :) up your game

Donald says

What does everyone see for the future of TSLA stock? Just for the heck of it I bought 2 shares on Monday for $868. I also bought 116 shares of ARKK, which heavily invests in TSLA, for $153.

Smart choice!

Were Tulips seen as digital gold? How did you program Tulips? Never seen one that you can attach to your device via USB.
Were you able to send Tulips across the world in seconds?
How do you build a smart contract on a Tulip and how is a Tulip your own bank? The tulip doesnt fit into a hardware wallet unless you really cut the tulip in very small pieces.

HunterTits says

Exactly.

That's probably why Tesla is not putting tulips on the balance sheet but digital gold (Bitcoin)
