Alright. Every listed exchange is back in the top 10.

The last 2021 bumped down to #10. Tomorrow we bump it down again.

Go Bitcoin Go.

Gotta support that military/industrial complex.

Real patriots are happy to fork over their money. 

There. Now it's a haiku. 

Yes unfortunately.

Good morning Bitcoinland.

Ugh. No Monday upsurge. Wrong direction.

Is the ETF-based buying spree done? Sideways is boring.


You didn't say which jurisdiction you are in.

I assumed you live in Ontario due to advice you gave me several years ago about a lake in the Orillia region.

Are you multi-jurisdictional? I know if you're a USA citizen they'll chase you all over the world for taxes. Does that apply to dual citizenship?

My accountant.

Capital gains are capital gains, whether Bitcoin or otherwise.

Edit: My accountant is not a tool. Actually, he's a nice guy. Pisses some people off though... bit of an attitude.

All is legal in love, war and Bitcoin.

Yuck. Down again.

At least 12 of the top 13 (USD) are from this year.

Tomorrow should be much better.

$40k-$30k range?

Sounds like wishful thinking.

What's the matter? Too much fiat currency and not enough Bitcoin? Hope to stock up cheap?

I think we're more likely to see $300k-$400k than $30k-$40k.

It's Haiku Sunday
And the price came right back up
After yesterday.

So now we're waiting
Patiently for tomorrow
And Monday's rally.

Even if we don't
Get another all time high,
Maybe we'll be close.

If we're not that close,
Maybe reach the seventies.
That's not much to ask.

I have Mycelium on an Android device that has never been rooted so the chances of it having been hacked are pretty slim. Also I try to never leave anything in Mycelium for longer than it take for one confirmation.

I don't really trust any wallet.

Improved? Sounds like a lot of unnecessary steps when simply sweeping the private key into a wallet (I usually use Mycelium) and then putting the leftovers into new addresses is so much simpler and faster.

Why complicate things?

At six oclock Monday morning their mommies and daddies will send them straight to bed bankruptcy because they're foolish little teddy bears.

If you understand what dual-key cryptography is, an address consists of a public key and a private key. You don't need a wallet to generate addresses. I generate mine offline on a computer that cannot be connected to the internet (no wifi, no network cable). I print co-called paper "wallets" on a printer that has never had internet access. Printer spool buffers can be hacked. I use paper "wallets" for the convenience of scannable QR codes. I keep my bitcoins in as many addresses as is practical. Some of my older addresses contained 10 or 20 coins so I split  them up into many smaller addresses. I never expose my addresses to the internet until I sweep their contents to a wallet program for redistribution.

Wallets on the other hand are Bitcoin handling programs which may or may not be associated with a hardware device. Wallet programs generate addresses and allow transfers to and from other wallet programs via the internet or QR scanning. They are usually secure but are still vulnerable to hackers and you must trust the makers of the hardware. See below. Open source wallet programs are a prerequisite. Wallet programs are convenient because of needing to keep track of many (possibly hundreds) of keys, you can just use a single passphrase.

When I acquire Bitcoin, I try to do so straight to one of the addresses I generated myself, via the public key. If you don't expose the private key, your bitcoins are safe. No need for a wallet program. When I sweep an address into a wallet program, I transfer the bitcoins as quickly as possible to the intended recipient and then put the remainder back into secure cold storage.



This is why I use secure cold storage addresses generated offline as I described above.

Saylor's strategy?

It's what many of us have been preaching for years:

Buy, hodl, don't sell unless you must, get rich in the long run.

Easy peasy.

Yuck. 2021 still hanging in.

Thanks for taking my tip regarding the currency names. Sideways scrolling sucks.

Keep up the good work.

You might want to consider Canada's place in the Bitcoin community.

Yes, Singapore may have a greater exchange trading volume but does that make it more important here in Bitcointalk?

How many of Canada's Bitcoiners use exchanges all that often. Many of us have been involved for so long that we don't trade unnecessarily and when we do there's a good chance it's going to be over the counter or under the table. Most probably simply hodl.

How many BCT members come from Canada as compared to Singapore or some of the other countries on Coinhills' list?

Old trader? 

Grow up kid. You're not fooling anybody.

Quit acting like you know what you're talking about.

Excellent. Bravo.

One small suggestion though:

If you omit the USD, EUR, CAD, etc it will all fit on a standard page without having to scroll sideways.

That was how Yefi did it.

Keep up the good work. This is such an important thread. Thank you.

So many people dwell on the high and low prices. The weighted averages give a much better read on the overall market, not just fat fingers and manipulations.

I find this thread much more important than the daily Chartbuddy recap in the WO. That doesn't even reference prices, just bids and asks.

I asked Richy to include the final actual trade value in CB, top center between the final bids and asks but I guess he's been too busy.

You always seem to find the time.

Thanks again!

You keep Bitcoin in a wallet?

I prefer cold storage addresses. Safer.
