    Laughed at for buying my Niece bitcoin for her first birthday...Last summer.

    Posted: 25 Apr 2021 09:39 AM PDT

    So I was trying to decide what to get my niece for her first birthday last July. I figured she's probably gonna get loads of crappy toys that she will quickly grow out of . I had just started buying BTC earlier that year so I thought I will get her some, I only bought £50.00 worth for her when it was worth $8000ish dollars. When my brother and his wife the parents of my niece opened the card to a message that said " You now own 0.0066 Bitcoin" they seemed a bit confused, my brother in law then laughed out loud and said' Who buys a baby Bitcoin'. I have to admit I felt pretty bad... It's now worth almost £300.00 and counting. I said she can withdraw when she's 18.

    When Bitcoin corrects in a bull market

    Posted: 25 Apr 2021 04:34 AM PDT

    For someone trading bitcoin on a 24 inch monitor in 2010, bitcoin has actually gone to the moon.

    Posted: 26 Apr 2021 03:35 AM PDT

    Bitcoin exchange trading first went live on Bitcoinmarket in March 2010 at a price of $0.003. Someone looking at a 1 minute chart might have it zoomed in so that a 2% move is encompassed in their chart. A huge 2% move of $0.00006 fill theirs screen, and their 24 inch 4:3 screen screen is about 18 inches (1.5 feet) all.

    Oh no. I cant believe I missed the move from $0.003 to $0.00306. Should I fomo in? Where will it go next?

    It is now April 2021 at a price of $53,500. The $0.00006 move has been repeated (53500/0.00006=) 891,666,667 times, and if each move is 1.5 feet for the monitor height, it has now moved 1,337,500,000 feet.

    The moon is 238,825 miles, or 1,261,000,000 feet away from the Earth.

    Bitcoin: 1,337,500,000 feet
    Moon: 1,261,000,000 feet

    Bitcoin has actually gone to the moon

    Elon Musk should put a full bitcoin node on the moon

    Posted: 25 Apr 2021 11:00 PM PDT

    Elon Musk should put a full bitcoin node on the moon as the first step to show the world that he can build a secure data center on space (the moon), and Bitcoin network is super resilient than any other network. The latency between moon and earth is only 1.3 seconds, which is manageable.

    Some reasons why this would be the coolest "to the moon" project for SpaceX:

    1. Low maintenance: Bitcoin is designed in such a way that the same basic hardware can run the full-node for a very very long time. No worry about hardware obsoletion. Bitcoin node requires very little energy and emits very little heat.
    2. Lightweight: The whole Bitcoin node system + solar battery + antenna can be less than a few kilograms. This cool project would be not too costly for him.
    3. Reliability: The moon visible part is always facing down to earth, to his Starlink satellites.
    4. Put SpaceX, Starlink, and Bitcoin logo on the machine. How cool is that as an advertisement?

    Next step is a small mining rigs on the moon, and then a full-blown data center to store important data for human. Free solar power and low temperature. Think about the Github Arctic Code Vault project.

    How cool it is to connect this thing to his Starlink project? Everyone who signed up with Starlink gets 1 MB space on the moon for free!

    Let's upvote this to get Elon noticed!

    DID ANYONE NOTICE

    Posted: 26 Apr 2021 12:59 AM PDT

    The bank-financed newspapers reveling in BTC's latest drop, predicting the end, "the crash is here", "could half by 50%", "bear market could be just getting started" etc etc.

    But barely a word written since it rebounded.

    Thats gotta sting!

    The dip might be in gentlemen, and a breakout might be right around the corner. If the pattern holds, then we can potentially see a 70k ₿itcoin in the next 15 days.

    Why Bitcoin is so hard for traditional economists and investors to understand.

    Posted: 25 Apr 2021 07:32 AM PDT

    I have been working in finance for the last 15 years, with a background in applied economics and I didn't have my Bitcoin epiphany until last year. When I first heard about Bitcoin, I dismissed it immediately with the same tired Dutch tulip bubble critique. As you are well aware, this is literally always the go to example used by detractors.

    On the surface, it's not that hard to understand why this is their initial reaction. Think of all the barriers that one has to cross: what exactly is the technology behind it, what if it gets hacked, price volatility, government bans, use case, bad actors (Mt. Gox), environmental impact, and other various FUD. Then once you get past that - you have to learn about exchanges, wallets, private keys, self custody, mining process, halving, hard forks, hash rate, etc. Honestly, it takes an exhausting amount of learning to even come to an informed decision on Bitcoin. But in my experience, when someone takes the time to peel back all these layers, they almost always reach the Bitcoin singularity and then there is no going back.

    My Bitcoin journey was borne out a simple math problem of world wide governmental spending and how quickly that is going to catch up with us. When just looking at the US government's baked CBO projections and adjusting for their historical inaccuracies, you see an inflationary situation unfolding of 10% or more year over year, starting in about 8 years. This calculation was done before all the covid spending, which is obviously going to accelerate that timeline.

    Bitcoin is so much more than an investment and it's hard to categorize it as just one thing. It is truly a revolutionary technology that will be looked at as an instrument that helped push economics into a new plane of existence. I can't stress to people how revolutionary it is for a monetary policy to be controlled autonomously by math. That's it, rant over and enjoy your Sunday.

    We're 468% UP on the yearly. This isn't even close to a infamous Bitcoin dip so can we watch with all the price posts already?

    Posted: 25 Apr 2021 03:32 PM PDT

    Come on.. no harm but this is hardly a time for either freaking out or to reassure others.

    The crypto run in the last year has been nuts, compared to years gone by.. it still is!

    Bitcoin @ $200K

    Posted: 25 Apr 2021 08:34 PM PDT

    I just read on Twitter that when BTC goes to 200K, half the billionaires in the world will be BTC billionaires...

    Somehow this feels surreal to me, how does everyone else feel about this lol...

    This correction is not fun

    Posted: 25 Apr 2021 03:07 PM PDT

    I remember when bitcoin came out. I'm a software guy so I like tech. I'm one of those "I almost bought bitcoin back when...". I remember when it hit 3k and I was disappointed that I had missed out. And then... And then... Finally got up the nerve to put money into bit coin 2nd quarter of this year. I sold, I moved money, I squeezed what I could squeeze. I became a whole coiner. 25% down for me hurts. I hold onto the hope for the future. As an older self employed individual without a 401k, this is my last time at the plate. The next 10-15 years are critical. Deep breaths. Lots of deep breaths.

    Edit: No need for u/RedditCareResources but thanks for being concerned. I'm just a rookie hodler who needed a pep talk.

    Is this all just cynical marketing talk to silence the conscience of environmental-aware investors, or does oversizing renewable energy production and using the excess for mining really makes some engineering sense? Or is this besides the point anyway, because Bitcoin mining will eventually self-regulate (halvings, fees) to reduce energy demand? Any critical thoughts/projections/publications beyond those occasional and seemingly rather one-sided/opinionated news articles very welcome!

    I was an overleveraged bitcoin degen and I have learned my lesson.

    Posted: 26 Apr 2021 01:43 AM PDT

    I made a mistake during the greed, overleveraged my BTC positions and got liquidated. It hurts to lose 2BTC for no good reason. Lesson learned. Don't be an overleveraged degen. Buy bitcoin and hodl.

    Btc will rescue all degens, have faith. Now enjoy the gains. Have a nice day.
