    Price premium at Bitfinex is approaching $420. Don't be one of the last ones to try to withdraw your funds. Buy whatever coin you like and get out. Even if you believe BFX is fine, get out till the dust settles.

    Old timers: How difficult is it (for real) to hodl when the prices go parabolic?

    (edit for clarity) For those who are in it as believers rather than trying to make a quick buck, have you ever been tempted by the fiat? If so, how hard was it to resist the temptation?

    Mastercard Has Been Forced By Activists To Hold A Shareholder Vote That Could Cut Off Payments To The Far Right

    Its almost halvening time!

    Posted: 02 May 2019 08:15 AM PDT

    Before the first halvening (2012) aquiring 100 btc was considered the ultimate goal.

    Before the second halvening (2016) acquiring 10 btc was considered the ultimate goal.

    Today, before the third halvening (2020), acquiring 1 btc is considered the ultimate goal.

    Before the fourth halvening (2024) acquiring 0.1 btc will be considered the ultimate goal.

    After the next halvening in one year from now acquiring just one full btc will sound as insane as trying to acquire 100 btc sounds today.

    You have a few months left to get your "sat stack" in order before the next halving begins its process of being priced in.

    Opportunties are like sunrises, if you wait too long you miss it, and the sun is about to rise on this next bull market.

    Why haven't multisig Bitcoin wallets caught on?

    Posted: 03 May 2019 01:19 AM PDT

    With non-custodial wallets, you're entirely on your own when it comes to Bitcoin security. Wouldn't this mean that most Bitcoin wallets should be multisig bt default? Why then are we still using 'conventional' wallets with a single point of theft?
    Any reason to avoid multisig?

    The Bitcoin Halvening is one year away, likely to be in May 2020. Time to plan your investment strategy if you haven't done already.
