Welcome noob. Here's a piece of advice:
Please don't refer to Bitcoin as "crypto".
That's like calling someone an animal. Of course people are technically animals but most people use the word "animal" to refer to sub-human species.
Bitcoiners use "crypto" to refer to sub-Bitcoin cryptocurrencies.

a true storage gourmet
Speaking of which, a lot of people here might not know of the accomplishments of Joe Breher. They see his Picnic Bear avatar and think of him as a grammar/spelling-obsessed grinch. In the world of data storage he was a hero, developer of many systems, storage engineer extraordinaire. I respect jbreher, and don't doubt (although I do not know the specifics of) his achievements, and I'm similarly obsessed with spelling/grammar (I consider this a positive trait). However, in my opinion, he was wrong about strongly supporting BCH (Bitcoin Cash, a.k.a. Bcash LOL) and the big-blocker camp, back in 2017. Had I followed his advice, my stash would now be several Bitcoins smaller. I'm so very glad I did not! You're right. I edited my post to replace "grinch" with "big blocker". I think he mainly stayed in real Bitcoin though. On his Linkedin page he describes himself as retired but busy with "investment managing". I guess that's what the Wall Observer is all about: investment managing... managing to have the balls to keep hodling.  |

It's Haiku Sunday.
I guess I should contribute
Before it's too late.
We're heading toward
Yet another all time high
(Weighted average).
Tomorrow a new
Week begins for ETF
Bitcoin purchasers.
Hopefully that will
Bring us a new all time high
In dollars at 'Stamp.
Let's keep rallying.
We have only just begun.
Go go Bitcoin go.

It was also my first SSD based netbook, while i did experiment with Linux based VDR (DVB-S) before, in which i decided to install 4GB SSD as a system drive for fast boot, 2007, AFAIR. My eeePC was a later edition, including 3G sim slot and most components were covered by a plastic sheet inside, for dust protection. It was the perfect tool for hacking on the road and wardriving in urban areas.
At least you were aware back then about what a performance bottleneck storage was. It seemed as if CPU speed was the only thing a lot of people cared about. I remember a friend being annoyed that my old Socket7 AMD K6-2 system was visibly faster than his brand spanking new Pentium3 system. I pointed out that I had 4 times as much RAM and a faster HDD. I was always fascinated by the idea of booting from solid-state storage but flash memory capacities were too small then. In 2005 Gigabyte brought out iRAM which put 4 DIMMs on a PCI card to allow fast booting but it was vulnerable to power outages. I backed off until decently sized SLC non-volatile SSDs became available a year or two later. My big breakthrough came when I replaced my RAID-0 array of 4 10000RPM WD Raptors with 4 OCZ Vertex SSDs in RAID-0. I was disappointed to find it was bottlenecked by my motherboard's southbridge. I had to get a PCIe RAID card to get full performance. From there I graduated to my first OCZ Revodrive. Those were the days. You mention wardriving. Many people didn't bother to protect their wifi back then so wardriving was a thing. I remember warning people about protecting their wifi after an incident in Toronto's west end. The cops stopped a car at 5:00am driving the wrong way on a residential street. They found the driver with his pants at his ankles masturbating as he downloaded kiddie porn onto his laptop using other people's wifi networks. Good thing the cops got the guy. Imagine some sucker sleeping innocently at home not knowing he was getting put on the kiddie porn list. |

I get what you are saying (no mortgage), but the house is NEVER paid off.
My RE taxes roughly equal the sum of the mortgage (per year).
You never actually own real estate. If they decide to expropriate you, you get what they decide to give you. In the meantime you pay your taxes or get evicted. Of course you are still liable for damages. Having a mortgage puts you even further in a hole. |

bitcoin is a currency as well as real money fiat money
That's an oxymoron. Bitcoin is real money, not that crap that governments can print any time they want. |

This is starting to remind me of the last run of rapid-fire ATHs when Dooglus would post the top days for several currencies.
I loved it when we hit the jackpot with every fiat currency hitting a top on the same day. Day after day.
We've just begun. Go Bitcoin go.

My 17 years old trusty, eeePC901 running Windows XP, died today. It's a 9inch minibook, because i have limited space and the "laptop" (more a knee-top... LOL) did fit perfectly in the space above the milling machine (a converted engraving machine, built like a tank).
The thing is beyond repair, i have to look for replacement. What pisses me off is that you can only buy tablets (only one USB port, but i need two) or totally cheap chinese no-name netbooks with small screen sizes up to 10 inch, otherwise i could run windows 10/11 on newer, fanless hardware, which is expected to live longer in the dusty environment.
I hope i can get some appropiate replacement asap.
I weep a tear for your old EeePC901. Best netbook ever. I was an early EeePC adopter due to my interest in the development of SSDs. The Asus EeePC701 was the first readily available system that booted directly from an SSD. I immediately set about modding the hardware, replacing the webcam with a 4-port USB hub and adding bluetooth and additional internal flash storage. I took a pass on adding a touch screen which was the most common EeePC mod. I hate touch screens. Give me a good mouse any day. I even used a mouse with a pocket-sized Windows tablet. When the 901 came out I jumped all over it. I had a sexy black one running Window7 complete with Aero and another prissy little white one running Apple OS10. Eventually I switched over to ultrabooks but there will always be a place in my heart for the EeePC. |

That sounds like a plan. I was also thinking to sell 10% maximum. Question is, would you keep that in USDT?
Why not just keep it in Bitcoin unless you're spending it on a purchase or other payment? |

We need to redefine what selling means. "Cashing out" or "taking profit" sounds too positive when what they are really doing is jumping back into a sinking boat called fiat.
Exactly. For some reason they think of it as buying and selling Bitcoin instead of buying and selling fiat currencies. I can't believe anyone would be so short-sighted as to spend their precious Bitcoin just to invest in some silly fiat currency. Do they really expect dollars, euros, yuan, etc to outperform Bitcoin? |
