Some may disagree, but China and its policies have been a drag on Bitcoin for too long and I was personally glad when they finally cut all ties with it. No one can forbid them to launch their spot BTC ETFs, but considering China's attitude towards Bitcoin, no one should be surprised if they start attacking Bitcoin again.

For most people, inflation is a negative phenomenon, especially if their monthly income remains the same as before inflation. This leads to the fact that the average person can no longer meet his personal life needs and has to start looking for other sources of income, which means that he has to work more, which means that he is more exposed to physical and mental efforts. However, inflation does not affect everyone in the same way, because the rich are still rich and have far more money than they need.


People will ride any wave if it makes sense to them at a given moment, and cryptocurrencies are currently a hot topic not only in Spain but everywhere in the world. If the price of BTC was half as much and nothing significant was happening, few would decide on such an investment.

Therefore, I think that inflation is not the main driver (motivator) for investing in cryptocurrencies, but it is about the fact that the expectations for this and the next year are extremely high, and this optimism spreads like a virus among all those who think that they can make easy money this way.

To me, this seems like a waste of time, for the person who sent the messages, but also for everyone who had to read them. It is obvious that the member who sent the messages was definitely confused by the April Fool's joke and it seems that there was nothing more to it than that.

Personal messages are part of the features of the forum, and there is nothing dangerous if you receive and read them, just don't click on the links that can be found in them and do what the sender asks of you without first checking what exactly it is about. If you suspect that the sender has bad intentions, you can report any such message to admin directly with the link from the message.

Of course, Grayscale BTC is only part of the coins flowing into ETFs, but it is difficult to estimate how many coins are available through OTC and what share belongs to miners. It is possible that miners have significant amounts of BTC that they have accumulated over the years waiting for the new ATH and that they will sell them gradually, and that the halving will not have an impact on the amount of BTC that will arrive through the OTC.

Until now, halving showed the first effects only after 6+ months, and it is possible that it will be the same now, and that what you are speculating about will only begin to manifest at the end or beginning of next year.


I do not consider all these methodologies for determining "lost BTC" to be even remotely reliable, because 30% would be as much as 6.3 million BTC that are no longer available, and I tend to believe that the real number of lost BTC would be only about 10%. Of that, about 1 million BTC is what is attributed to Satoshi mined coins, and another 1 million BTC would, in my opinion, be what everyone else lost.

You should also not ignore the outflows that happen with ETFs, because all those who invest in such a way do it exclusively for profit and sooner or later they will decide to take that profit.

One of the ways is the one in which many members of this forum participate, and it is about signature campaigns in which you also participate. I didn't check how much your campaign pays, but I think it's one of the lower paying ones and you probably can't earn $3 a day, but a good number of campaigns pay at least $50+ a week, which in some countries is a solid $200 a month.

Of course, it is not easy for a beginner to become at least a full member on this forum, but if people are interested in Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in general, with some time and effort, reaching such a rank is really easy to achieve.

As for other jobs that are offered online, you can try to be a moderator on various forums, telegram groups and the like - and in the Service board you can often read that someone has posted an ad offering a job. In fact, there are countless possibilities for small online jobs, but also everyone who wants to earn something in this way must have at least some skills - there is always a job for a good graphic designer or developer.

If you are already looking at the data in the table, then at least you can write them correctly. Reward era 4 ends with 19.68xxx BTC, which is 93.75% of the max supply, and this will happen in about two weeks. One more thing, if we're going to be precise, it will never be exactly 21 million BTC, but 20999999.97690000 BTC.

If I were you, I would still note that the image was generated with the help of AI, just in case. Given that the forum has never considered uploading images from any source as something against the forum rules, you probably won't have any problems with such images.

To begin with, I think that those who closely follow what is happening with spot ETFs (US) know that one of the main sources of BTC for BlackRock and Fidelity is in what is sold by Grayscale (so far over 300 000 BTC). Only when they stop dumping their BTC will we see the real state of the market, unless some new source appears that will do the same thing that Grayscale has been doing for months.

As for the halving, regardless of the psychological effect it will probably have, I do not believe that the OTC market depends on new mined coins whose total amount will decrease from 27 000 to only 13 500 BTC in a few days. The liquidity of the OTC market will therefore not depend on what the miners sell in that way given the amount is too small to meet the needs of the market - unless the miners have large amounts of BTC they are holding in anticipation of the ATH.

Realistically, spot ETFs (US) + all other spot ETFs around the world have bought over 500 000 BTC (+300 000 Grayscale) so far, so even if we conclude that they have about 1 million BTC, there is still theoretically about 18.6 million BTC which are in circulation.

It is really strange for anyone who behaves rationally and has earned such money in any "honest" way to simply go and do such a sensitive operation without any prior checking. However, without any evidence, maybe the OP is just a victim of clipboard malware and the mixer sent coins, but to the wrong address.

I look at it from a different angle, because most will sell sooner or later, so the moment is quite irrelevant if they doubt Bitcoin every time it loses 5% in value compared to what is practically worthless (fiat). You probably think that their BTC will go into the hands of companies like BlackRock or Fidelity, but I think that they currently have some other sources from which they are "buying" - so it is not necessarily bad that "easy hands" sell, there is always a possibility that new owners think completely differently from them.

When you take a look at the some forum posts, you will be amazed at how many people are wondering if the bull run is over and if they should sell their BTC - which means that they have no sense of the times they are in. The conditions for a perfect storm are becoming increasingly visible with the upcoming halving and the huge appetite of investors for Bitcoin through spot ETFs.

It is good to consider all options, but be sure that you will be able to return what you borrowed and that the $1000 is not money that can create problems in your life. In other words, try to stick to the golden rule "never invest more than you can afford to lose".

Also take into account that the DCA method (dollar-cost average) has its advantages because you can be lucky and buy at an average lower price than what you will achieve with a single purchase. Of course, that's where fees and security come into play, so we're back to the beginning.

Except for Microstrategy, all these other companies are real dwarfs with their investments considering how much they are actually worth. It seems to me that some of these companies are buying Bitcoin just to draw a little more attention to themselves, but they are far from serious investors.

As for Tesla and their great leader, some information appeared that they started buying BTC again, although some say that it might just be an accounting error.

I try to check every OP before answering, especially if it's newbies and classic shitposters - but we can't expect all members to have such high standards when it comes to fighting against AI, plagiarism, spam and low value posts. Those who do not check if they are communicating with AI could often find themselves in a situation where their posts are deleted as a result of the entire thread being deleted.


I don't think it's something achievable, and I wonder how it would even be possible to have something like that on the forum. After all, anyone can check every post in at least three AI detectors in less than 1 minute - you open three detectors in three tabs and paste the post - if all detectors show that it is AI content, instead of the post, make a report to the moderator.

You, me and some others from this forum know that, but how many people have been buying gold for almost 10 years and waiting for $5000 per ounce? Maybe one day in the future it will happen, but then 1 BTC will be worth at least ten times more than today.

Considering the kind of stories we can read on the forum, I will reserve the right to be skeptical because some things are a bit strange to me.

At first, the husband does not allow his wife to do anything except housework, she hides from him and invests $10 a week and thanks to the bull run makes a profit, and then she decides to confess everything to him, and suddenly he not only allows his wife to invest, but help her open her own company

Will the wife now turn her husband into a housewife - I mean, since she is now the big boss, someone has to work in the house, right?

With spot ETFs that have already bought more than 500 000 BTC and with the halving effect, I don't think it's too optimistic to speculate on at least $100 000 by the end of the year. Everyone has the right to their opinion, but I don't see any good reason (so far) in favor of the fact that by the end of this year the price will be only slightly higher than it is now.

A 50% price increase compared to the current price is quite possible if we don't have a black swan event, but given the crazy world we live in, anything is possible.

It is hard to classify him in any other category than an ordinary troll who repeats the same phrases so long that he has convinced himself that they are true. He said in 2015 that the price of gold will reach $5000 per ounce, and today the value is not even 50% of that amount.

Everyone who was active during 2015 remembers that 1 BTC was then worth about $200+, today it is about $65 000+, while the price of gold in 2015 was in the range of about $1300 at the beginning of the year and just over $1000 at the end of that same year. Who is poor and who is rich in that story is clear to anyone with a little brain in their head.

Have you thought about the option to "borrow" say $1000 and immediately buy BTC, and then pay back $200 every month? In this way, you will save on fees, and at the same time you will have BTC in your wallet immediately after the purchase.
