Yup, he popped into my head earlier today. Can't decide whether to think of him with sympathy or stupidity in mind. I can't help but feel sympathy for him, but the stupidity of selling at $3xxx, after he'd spent so much time here with fellow WOers, wins out. Fundamentals, etc.

Sorry for his losses but he really should have known better. Never mind, just suck it up and buy back, as we all advised at the time. Then, after learning how to hodl through anything, in x years from now, he'll hardly remember the act of stupidity and will need no sympathy.

But he'll know that his name will live forever as a verb: 'to mindrust' - or, 'to do a mindrust' - the act of failing to hodl

verb, mind·rust·ed, mind·rust·ing.
to fail to hodl; to sell, by way of panic:
e.g. The foolish gambler mindrusted all of his bitcoins away.

The Mindrust Maneuver  Grin

Or the phrase: to "go full mindrust."

E.g.: "He went full mindrust and lost it all in an instant."

"mindrust accident" = selling the bottom.

Bisschen Gold Diversifikation dürfte auch nicht schaden *duck*  Grin

Halte ich persönlich nichts von... schwerr grenzüberschreitend mitzunehmen und nun auch noch die Steuer... wer weiss was da noch kommt... Goldverbot 2.0?

https://m.faz.net/aktuell/finanzen/bundesregierung-will-steuerpflicht-fuer-xetra-gold-16873375.html

Klar.
Wobei, theoretisch wird Gold mit steigendem Wert immer "leichter", weil man weniger davon benötigt, wenn man es schon mitnehmen muss.
Hard wallet contra Passwort-Herausgabezwang ist aber auch nicht der Weisheit letzter Schluss, wenn man in der Vergangenheit nicht so schlau war, seine paper wallets oder Seedword Listen über den Planeten verteilt sicher zu deponieren.

Now that's some news here:

The EU recently encouraged its officials/staff to use end-to-end encrypted messaging software for communication while on the other hand the EU and Europol tries to force services offering said encryption to implement backdoors for challenging "child abuse".

https://ec.europa.eu/home-affairs/sites/homeaffairs/files/what-we-do/policies/european-agenda-security/20200724_com-2020-607-commission-communication_en.pdf

Those fucking fucks!
At the same time blaming the US, China and Russia for spying on their citizens.
AFAIK the EU is (was?) a FREEdom project.
I'm more than angry right now, what an unusual feeling  Angry Angry Angry Angry

Don't tell me it's the first time you discovered this. A freedom project? You're kidding. Around here, we tend to speak about the "EUSSR".

Yeah, you're right.
I have to admit that what the EU really is was kind of "shifted out" of my awareness (or consciousness).
Things like these happen with my long term memory quite frequently.
Imagine you have to learn the same things again (and again), to keep them for a random amount of time, in which more often than not you're also not being able to recall them when needed. It's been going on since about eight years now.

A good rule of thumb is:

If they can do it they will.

Good point there.
I always used to say "power (over someone, something) is existing for being misused".
That's what originally brought me to bitcoin, by the way.

The story of my brother in law, the ex-roofer - part 2.

Short version:
He declined my offer to pay him out in bitcoin, now here's the translation:
"Bitcoin is over. It will keep going sideways in the $10k range, before it will go to zero in the next couple of years. I had the chance of my life when it was at $300, but my father didn't even borrow me $5k, because he was into stocks only"

No more questions were asked.
He even did know about last year's rise to $14k. So he is still more or less following the price action as a nocoiner.
End of story  Cry

I was going to say something about your Part 1, so I am glad that you reported back, even though the news is not good.

There are a lot of folks out there who are not going to act, even if you present them the information and give them a premium.

I had a recent thought in my head that I was going to offer to give a wedding gift that was something like 33% more if they were to accept it in bitcoin rather than cash.  It was a 26 year old male relative, so I did not mind considering offering a premium.  I had a few conversations with that relative weeks before the wedding, and I also spoke with his mom and some other relatives (close to the matter) regarding his financial situation and his ways of dealing with money.

After quite a bit of contemplation, I decided that he would NOT appreciate such an offer, so I did not even make it, and I also figured that I was going to appreciate keeping the BTC more than he would appreciate getting them.. and he would probably convert them to cash or resent having them locked up for a year (considering me to be to patronizing) if I were to use the "give bitcoin" website.

So, even though I did not know the specifics of the response of your brother-in-law, I kind of anticipated some kind of similar story... sad as that seems to be.  No coiners and/or precoiners tend to presume that we are trying to sell them something, unless either they come too the matter themselves and ask us or they are really excited about the possibility of investing in BTC.

It is still good that you made the offer, but you should be glad that you have more bitcoin because your brother in law refused to consider your recommendation and clung on to some likely misleading mainstream misinformation narratives.

It's also these disbelieves, that an asset can't break the norm and gain so much more value compared to stocks or physical metals. After all, it "was just luck" or "the bubble of the century" for nocoiners afterwards. Also one of the main concerns (narratives) is the "no real value behind bitcoin", which i would translate to "no matter in bitcoin", something you can't see, weigh or hold in your own hands. Maybe if the sum of all miner hardware and infrastructure is accounted as "matter" in this case, makes it value comparable to gold, silver or a tech company like elon's version of Wayne Industries?
However, if one thinks that way, he'd be lost from the beginning. Like trying to explain gravity to an octopus.
Let's assume one day crypto will be normal, everybody will use it and buy food, clothes and toilet paper with it. Finally it will become something people "can touch".
Then it's only a minor change in perception for everybody. With the next FOMO spike there will be even more development towards mass adoption, i guess, so it's only a question of time, unless a possible black swan event occurs.

On my BiL, i have to say that i would have re-bought the amount of bitcoin i would have given him instantly, so i'd have lost only a few Sats for good.
But when the right time has come, i'll happily lend a fraction of my corn to some relatives Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

Literally everything about his response screams "I could give a shit about Bitcoin, its tech, or what it stands for. I don't even know what proper money is, or why fiat sucks. I just wanted to buy some Bitcoin to get rich quick, which is sounds like I already missed that boat."

These people are so clueless that one doesn't even know where to start. Even Warren Buffett says to never buy/invest in something you don't understand. I imagine an ex-roofer has a long way to go to understanding "investing". He's not even at 101 level.

Exactly. His view on bitcoin is best described as a tool to get fiat-rich quickly. A one hit wonder of finance.
He has loads of other problems in life, because of reasons easily explained by his cluelessness.
And he always knows better. Roll Eyes

EDIT: Looks like $10k is in reach again and "alt season" slowly kicks in, too.

BITCOIN DEFINED AS 'MONEY' UNDER D.C. LAW, FEDERAL COURT SAYS

Good and bad news imo.

EDIT: Source https://news.bloomberglaw.com/banking-law/bitcoin-deemed-money-under-d-c-financial-services-law

Sounds nice, and thanks for posting. I'm left wondering, however, what are the implications and why is this important?

Legal consequences.
What is the definition of "trading service"?
A node, an exchange, a bank?
Since banks are allowed to trade bitcoin for customers, worst case would be that only licensed businesses are allowed to sell/keep/buy bitcoin, i guess.
While this is restricted to the US, on the other hand, so not "another ending of bitcoin" in any way.


It could be good and bad for bitcoin.
Depending on where you live.
CB (Coinbase for the crypto inept Roll Eyes ) will hound you if your in the US for you to pay your taxes on your crypto gains.

Yeah, and that, of course.

Schiss habe ich eher davor, dass es einen unentdeckten Bug gibt, der in Zukunft zu einem riesigen Chaos führt.

Das würde wahrscheinlich das Ende der Währung bedeuten.

Was?
Schon wieder?

Denken wir's mal anders herum: was fällt euch so ein, das überhaupt "weltweit verboten" ist?

Mord? Nö.
In welchem Land ist Mord denn bitte nicht "verboten"?
Mord ist laut Definition:
The unlawful killing of another human being without justification or excuse.

"legaler Mord" ist daher aus der Definition heraus ein Oxymoron.

Aber ansonsten bin ich ganz bei dir.  Wink

Hinrichtung im Strafvollzug ist doch "legaler Mord", oder etwa nicht?
