TA perspective - yes, because we went really far from the SMA. Every time an asset does something like this, it opens itself to a possible correction to the trend line.
Common sense -yes, because people will always want to take some profit at what they see as the top. The higher you go in a short time the more people want to take profit.

In MMA you have the right to accept or decline a challenge. Nobody is going to make a female fight a transgender male, it's up to her.
Maybe set up a special trans league where all those hormone pumped boys, girls and fluids can duke it out?

If I'm not wrong there were hopes that Trump's administration would be crypto friendly because of the people that used to work there, like his advisor like Stephen Moore who moved from the Federal Reserve to start a crypto company in 2019. Trump also fired Anthony Scaramucci, who later made a lot of money investing in bitcoin. So Trump used to have a some crypto people around him and was seen as a businessman who understands the free market but really was against alternative investments. We could see that in the latest attempt to "regulate" crypto by Steven Mnuchin. I don't think he'll ever support or use bitcoin. He's stubborn like Warren.

Even if we enter a bear market after this bull run and it takes us another 3 years to reach a new high, show me a better investment. I held coins since 2015 and obtained most of them below $1k. In the first 3 years i made 20x gain to ATH, even after the pullbacks in 2018 my coins were still worth 5 times what I paid for them. Then 2 years later my profit was a whopping 40x!
If I kept money on a savings account, I'd probably make 10% in 5 years.
If I bought an apartment and rented it out I'd make 50%.
You think I'm afraid of a bear market? Please...

I agree with hormone divisions. We have weight divisions for the same purpose, because one day someone noticed that a 100kg wrestler will 9/10 times win against a 50 kg wrestler. Since there are women who have incredible muscle mass and look like men on steroids, why not put them up against men in competitions? It's pretty much the same with transgender people. You can feel like whoever you like for all I care. If you feel like a lion, you can jump into a cage with lions, I won't shed a tear, but the competitions should be made so that 30 year old pervs who think they're teenage girls are not allowed to compete in sports against those girls.

Hacking is used a bit too often when people describe the events that took place. For instance, when an exchange they're using is broken into, to an average user it's a loss due to hacking, but when they install malware and that compromises their device, they'll also say they were hacked. Personally, I'd only say that i got hacked if someone was able to gain access to my device through sim spoofing, wifi packet sniffing or similar ways. I don't know anybody who really got hacked. Many people lost money on exchanges but it's not their security that was compromised so they did not really get hacked, but a third party they trusted.

Did he now get a U.S. citizenship, since he was trialed and incarcerated in the U.S. and is referred to as a former citizen of Bulgaria? Regardless, it's funny that people who run many different types of businesses around the world sometimes find themselves in conflict with the U.S. law and get transported there, judged and sentenced to serve in local jails with all the local cream of the crop.

But who is going to decide if the poster is an idiot? Is every social media platform going to employ a psychiatrist? There are obvious cases like your bleach guys or those who used to do tide pot challenge, but sometimes there are opinions supported by large groups of people like this so called "fluid gender", scientology, flat earth, and many other things. We all know that some ideas are laughed at and called stupid until too many people support them and you begin to find yourself in the minority. A nice example of this were countries that underwent radicalization like Iran.

He would like to be able to buy an item online, wait for it to get to him and then say he changed his mind and get his bitcoins back with one click. Or, he'd like to use the chargeback scam, known from paypal, with a small difference that this time the transaction wouldn't have his name on it, only an anonymous bitcoin address.
Consumers love chargeback because they give them an edge over merchants. You won't find merchants complaining about the lack of this option.

So that guy who sleeps in a twig hut has electricity, Internet, a smartphone or a computer, knows about bitcoin and how to use it... Strange at the very least.


What is a good price? Is 10k a good price? 15k? 20k? For many people 35k is a good price because there's millions of USD traded for bitcoin every day.

Are you some kind of prophet? You remind me of those people who a few weeks ago were hyped about the new high and predicted 100k in 2021. It's those people who, like you, are now saying that we're entering the bear market when no charts are showing it yet. This would actually be the first bear market to start without a serious crash. The weakest and most boring turnaround ever.
If people like you are getting out now it means we're about to enter the real bull run where some of you will exit the market with regret and some others will wait and then buy the top.

They are because they see that their position is becoming weaker. They need bailouts and can go bankrupt while cryptocurrencies don't (at least decentralized ones) and people are becoming less interested in keeping fiat money on their accounts because of extremely low interest rates. They're hoping people will continue to take loans they can afford because if too many people lose their jobs and stop paying they're done and it's bailout or bankruptcy. IMO there's no competition between them and bitcoin. Bitcoin is going its own way and surviving against all odds.

It was always a debate about public vs private. If you had a small forum, would you block people for comments that you don't support, or would you allow all of them to say whatever they like as long as it's not spam? I'm asking because all of the social media like Twitter are private and they allow people to post to some extent. There are things they block, like racism, but if you start banning people for their comments you will naturally have to draw a line somewhere and this line is going to move back and forth depending on whether a certain group can persuade you.
For example, you decide to ban nonsense, so naturally if someone comes to the forum and says people can breathe in space, you'll delete it. Then, a group of people will argue the Earth is flat, you'll ban them. Then some bigger group will come to argue there's more than 2 genders...

What are those silly things you're talking about? Are groceries silly? I wouldn't say that sustaining yourself is unimportant. I hold to buy things in future, that's a fact. I don't see any other use for bitcoin outside of speculation/trading and saving up to buy things. I'm sure one day I'll be able to do it and believe me, I will not regret it. The ultimate goal of every type of money is to buy us things we need. Without this currencies would be useless. What is silly and what is not is a matter of perspective. For someone who lives in the South Africa, a winter coat will be useless, but someone in Finland will not be able to live without it.

We'll see how much they'll lose on their future wives. These days whoever doesn't get married makes more money and gets a better position in Forbes.
Jokes aside I feel like Musk and his SpaceX are going to dominate. He took a huge risk investing in a space program and it went great. I predict that in future he's going to make more money this way than  by selling cars.

I wouldn't want to risk it and convert all my coins to one type of fiat currency deposited into a single bank account. This would go against the values that I try to uphold and against everything that bitcoin stands for. Let's speculate for the purpose of answering you. If I wanted to convert millions, I'd divide it not only between banks but whole currencies and people. I'd convert as much as possible into cash, so that the government wouldn't get tipped off, set up a foreign bank account, probably in Estonia or Switzerland and convert some of my coins into Euro, then make sure my wife gets a different bank account and does the same thing.

Actually he's the head of the Vatican and has his own personal guard. You can't simply come in and arrest him. All they'd be able to do is issue a formal letter asking him to agree to a formal hearing and so on. In a way he's a diplomat with immunity, same as a foreign ambassador. You don't arrest people like him.
Of course he was not arrested and the whole article is bullshit.

Have you seen that clip where a security guard is being chased up the stairs by those non-violent Trump supporters? They were chasing that poor dude around and not reacting to his commands, openly asking to be hit or shot because he had a baton in his hand. They kept charging until a few more armed officers appeared. Is that where the violence started according to you, where they threatened to shoot the protesters? I'm really amazed that they allowed them to go this far without at least shooting them with rubber bullets or spraying with pepper.

I don't get how a group of nerds in costumes managed to break into one of the most important buildings in the USA.

Not that alarming if you don't hold them. I'm happy about XRP, this coin is a disgrace and people are buying it because it's in the top 10, not because it has any purpose or anything.
Bad news for those who hold these coins, good news for Bitcoiners. If we believe the theory that altcoin market takes away from bitcoin, value lost by these altcoins will flow back to coin market cap and be divided among other coins. Maybe it already is since Bitcoin has reached its new high after the news were published.

I said it years ago, he's stubborn. He's an old man, old men are stubborn. He's also rich and rich people usually think highly of themselves. Is it really strange to you that an old man who rarely in his life was wrong can't admit it? He's not a tech investor, he never was. Let him do what he wants, I don't believe anybody will look at him as a tech guru or anything like that.
Also, he's on his last legs. How many years does he have before him? Bitcoin will continue to reach new highs long after he's gone.
