Well, as everyone here knows, I'm still a newbie (BTC since 2021)
Anyway, this still unexplored price region (ATH) also depends a lot on human behavior, I don't know about you, but currently when I see the price of bitcoin below 65...66k USD my conscience says that it's a cheap price to buy, that's strange, because a few weeks ago we could say that the price at 66 was already very high....
I believe this should happen to most people who follow the price of BTC... does that make sense? Or does this just ONLY happen to me?
This is very typical and repeats a lot. You are either in the "dang" 60k is expensive or "dang" 60k is cheap. If you want to elevate out of these perspectives you need to think less about the price in the moment and come at it from a price target perspective. e.g is the current price cheaper than my target price. My target price's for this cycle are Very Conservative: 110k Conservative: 138k Bullish: 170k Ultra Bullish: 250k If we go up past or close to 110k will start to reprice the high target to next level, so I always have the perspective in this cycle that "dang" XXXk is cheap. Keep stacking :-) Target for this year: 170K. Because of, reasons. |

So far the most comical thing about this cycle to me is fans of MSTR. They all talk about how great Saylor is and how he’s going to be Bitcoin’s savior. Meanwhile he’s dumping MSTR on them as fast as he can while his company buys more. He’s literally dumping MSTR as fast as he can and buying BTC, meanwhile his fans are dumping BTC to buy MSTR. It has to be rare where people call someone a genius and then do the exact opposite of them or maybe this is just the level of intellect in markets these days.
Good catch here as I didn't look into his buying/selling behavior with respect to MSTR shares. Interesting. But what I don't get now is why would someone sell BTC to then buy a small share in a company that is essentially comprised of BTC investments? Oh wow, is that actually true? If so, that's just strange--unless Saylor predicted MSTR was going to be the target of short sellers, which was exactly what happened today (if the news is to believed, of course). And speaking of the news and in particular that article I linked to, check this out:  Now correct me if I'm wrong, but HODL never was short for " Hold On for Dear Life" but simply a typo in a post made here a long time ago that people picked up and ran with. Freakin' media. Also: with respect to OgNasty's assertion that Saylor's fans are buying MSTR, there's no real way of knowing who's buying what so I think that's a leap of logic right there. Edit: Whilst browsing through the Yahoo comments, I found this:  So, looks like it's true that Saylor was dumping MSTR (granted, I haven't looked at the referenced filings). I'm not sure how big of a deal that is, since CEOs and other execs sell shares in their own companies all the time, which they're allowed to do. This is all interesting, though. HODL is definitely a mistype born on this very forum (precisely, here). Regarding the Shorting report, I read it, and it is a very basic math. Everyone that bought MSTR recently should have done his homework knowing that he was buying Bitcoin at the double of the face value. The report is here:  |

I would add one more drawback. Only BitCan offers support for it. For what duration is this project being developed? To what extent has it been tested? All I am worried about is that using the glyphs alone will not be enough to recover the seed phrase in the distant future. Not like BIP39, which is compatible with nearly all HD wallets. The process of translating glyphs to bits and back again to words has already caused me anxiety.
There is no need to refer to the site or other, the glyphs are just a way for writing the BIP39 binaries.. 0 for the first word-> converted to binary numeral system = 0 , the last word (2047) converted to binary = 11111111111 . |  | ( Order from right to left ) |
You can just remember it, it is pretty easy !The association between gliph lines and correct bit is difficult to remember. These backups needs to be understandable by a casual user, if we won't there to assist them. To me, the simpler, the better, and the extra risk of this complication is not worth the extra security it can (pun not intended) offer. |

chi resta, non e' facile dato che in ogni caso ci sono utenti strani che spuntano e spariscono per sempre
indago ulteriormente se trovo il tempo
Fuochino, vi state avvicinando. Forse non è solo un utente. MA sono più di uno, una ghenga. Oh, però non ve la prendete con me: avete TUTTI gli strumenti! Tra l'altro spiego anche abbastanza bene dove prendere i dati per ogni analisi |

Just wondering if we have just witnessed the last round of outflows from GBTC.
Now that presumedly Genesis has finished selling, I can't see why anyone else should do so: New buyers are focusing on IBIT and FBTC, instead of the legacy fund. We might be near the bottom in GBTC.
just witnessed? its the weekend, buys(to dissolve shares and outflow coin holdings) die down at weekends ..also it was US spring break and about to be other countries easter break.. so expect slowdown. even traders need a holiday also GBTC buyers(to then request dissolving shares to move coin out to exchanges(outflows) to then move into other etf(inflows)) are not done by end user investor buyers of shares (meaning not done by your grandparents, your parents, your pension) its actual 100% AP(brokers(agents/sponsors)).. emphasis, not your grandparents.. not end investors Nice analysis, but I guess all the GBTC recent selling was about Genesys selling shares and using proceeds to buy BTC (sort of neutral market move). The thing is that buying from IBIT and FBTC also slow down. Wondering what is driving what. GBTC driving inflows or the other way around? |

Thank you again for your flawless timing.
I blame my chores. My wife took my computer and I had to take care of the kids. I feel better now. Back to normal life, eventually. No medic anymore

Un bello scherzetto da MARA oggi:  Hanno minato un blocco con delle transazioni "addomesticate" per formare una scritta pubblicitaria. Non male come idea, in effetti molto creativa.  This morning, we mined the M block on #Bitcoin – a visual demonstration of Marathon’s template building capabilities and vertical tech stack. Blockchain indexers can visualize bitcoin transactions through square blocks and color gradients based on their transaction size and fee rate. Because we own our own mining pool, we can craft the order of transactions in a block to create a form of “block art”, creating a custom graphic that can be seen by all through indexer websites such as http://mempool.space. This new way to utilize #Bitcoin could present a wave of creative potential; however, we are not offering this as a service at this time. Since we operate a private mining pool and we’ll continue to experiment new ways to innovate with #Bitcoin, we encourage the rest of the Bitcoin network to exclude our blocks from their FPPS calculations for more accurate miner fee estimates, even though our effect on FPPS may be minimal. |

Our friend @sabotagex from the Portuguese local board shared it with us and that's why I decided to bring it here so you can see how interesting it is. Will the halving block have a surprise like this? I had never seen this
It's the first time I see something like this. Of course, they gave up the transaction fees in the mempool to play this stunt. I am afraid that, in case, everyone will try to do the same for the halving block, just to be remembered in the eternity. |

I am lagging even more than the last time. I am on the lazy side of the event. There have been many times when I rushed to the forum station only to update this report. Last time, I wasn't involved in the sprees; this time, I was barely scratched, yet I had to find a time slot to analyse this all. I promise to be more reactive next time. First things first! Official @ddmrddmr thread First, the usual the usual spreadsheet, where you see the two last sprees:  As you can see, the addition of the total merits per in the paired TICK-TOCK sprees has already underlined a new record: this is the smallest merit-circulating spree since launch. As this last one is by far the smallest on record, either @ddmrddmr has become more efficient at distributing merits the traditional ways, or he's saving merits for later!
Merit Spree #51 by @ddmrddrmr Official Description: Version 51 - 25/03/2024 (76 posts merited (by me) in just over 1 minute) -> 154 sMerits
Remerited all my merited posts since my last spree (+ some backlogged pending ones), for non-banned users (up until last friday ). My review: TICK: This is an almost perfect reply of merit spree #50. Small-sized double-meriting spree. Textbook TICK Spree. Here's the TOP10: 1. d5000 24
2. Hispo 16
3. hilariousetc 10
4. darbitmobilerecovery 10
5. Don Pedro Dinero 8
6. Porfirii 6
7. mocacinno 4
7. GreenInk 4
7. franky1 4
7. famososMuertos 4
7. dominguero 4
7. Amphenomenon 4
Compared to Merit Spree #47, the numbers to enter the TOP10 are higher, which is quite usual. Only 4 merits to enter the chart, topped yet another time by @d5000, with 24 merits, getting just shy of his record of 30 in merits spree #47. Shall I start taking note of who's topping this chart more often? That's all folks for Merits Spree 51!
Merit Spree #52 by @ddmrddrmr Official description: Version 52 - 25/03/2024 96 posts merited (by me) in just under 2 minutes) -> 96 sMerits
Merited all posts that:
- I have not merited before.
- Have received merits from at least five different people since february 2024.
- Are not in Services nor in WO nor in off-topic.
- Are not in thread IDs: 5253221, 5156376, 5445913, 5485091, 5485659, 5485801, 5486754
The goal is to merit post I have either ignored or not come across in boards I do not visit, and that others seem to deem merit worthy, allowing me to unload a bunch of sMerits in the process.
My review: TOCK This second spree was by far the smallest of the bunch: roughly half the size of merit spree 48 and similar, yet smaller than 50. It was a small-sized single merit spree. As I said, maybe it is difficult to find a post satisfying the criteria, or maybe @ddmrddmr is saving merit for later, so I tend to lean toward this one. Here's the TOP10: 1. paid2 3
1. nutildah 3
3. Moreno233 3
4. DannyHamilton 3
5. promise444c5 2
5. PowerGlove 2
5. Pmalek 2
5. LoyceV 2
5. Humblevirus 2
5. Gencecikmen 2
5. Etranger 2
5. cygan 2
5. BlackHatCoiner 2
5. apogio 2
5. $weetne$$ 2
Being a single merits spree, numbers are lower: 3 merits to top the chart and 2 to enter the TOP10. I will start getting merit statistics for a single merits spree! So 11 merits are the highest on record for a single merits spree! (merit spree 44!), and these 3 merits are the lowest required on the record, together with spree #44, #46 and #48: wen two? Time to call it a day! I will work hard to be admitted back into the @ddmrddmr merit spree and be more proactive next time! I must admit that the 50 merit spree is quite an extensive effort by our Spanish entity. See you at the next merit spree! |

Al momento della richiesta di preferenza di come avessi preferito il rimborso, decidi per rimborso in crypto...Motivo per cui il mese scorso ho riscritto il post in cui mi preoccupavo di dover verificare kraken e discordanze (cose che ad oggi risultano risolte)...
...poi appare questa cifra in yen/euro sul balance del mio rimborso, quindi in fiat...e quelle hanno bonificato...
Io sono esterno al processo, quindi magari dico una scemata: ma la scelta del metodo di rimborso è "indipendente" dall'ammontare. Voglio dire che l'importo è stato deciso dal curatore fallimentare, poi se questa somma dovesse essere restituita al creditore in fiat o in crypto sarebbe stata una scelta del creditore stesso, ma la somma sempre quella rimane. |

Airdrop di coriandoli in Etiopia!
Non in Etiopia!! No, dai, l'Etiopia no cribbio! Il paese si stava candidando ad essere il primo paese a minare direttamente bitcoin, sfruttando il proprio surplus energetico per alimentare le mining farm aperte nel paese. |

Non avendo trovato thread simili ne vorrei aprire uno per discutere sulla possibilità di creare degli incontri con cadenza mensile/trimestrale in base alla provenienza geografica degli utenti nel quale discutere del mondo bitcoin e al tempo stesso avere l'occasione per visitare nuove città ed instaurare un rapporto di amicizia. Cosa ne pensate?
Qualora ci fosse interessamento si potrebbe valutare di creare un gruppo telegram nel quale approfondire l'argomento.
Prova a vedere https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=144.0 se aiuta picchio siamo vecchi... tutto quel che abbiamo fatto noi non esiste piu'  non credo interessi che esiste (o esisteva?) addirittura una sezione apposita per questo argomento. In fondo e' giusto cosi', I giovani devono farsi i loro spazi. Chiedo ad Hostfat di spostare questo thread in quella sezione, Dove quindi nessuno la vedrà più... In traltà la sezione sarebbe pure attiva... se ci fossero dei meetup. Purtroppo mi pare che a parte di satoshi* non vi sia tanto altro in giro.... |

Aprile, oltre al ben noto halving, vedrà il lancio del protocollo Rune.Rune è una sorta di Ordinals 2.0, sviluppato dalla stessa persona (Casey Rodarmor) Tecnicamente la cosa è abbastanza complessa: per semplificare, la principale differenza è che mentre Ordinals legava le singole inscription ad un satoshi, in Rune il legame sarà inscription-UTXO. In sostanza Rune sarà un protocollo UTXO-based che si integrerà quindi molto meglio con Bitcoin. Ogni transazione rune, usando la funzione OP_RETURN, conterrà istruzioni sulle caratteristiche, quantità o cambio di proprietà dell'asset emessa o trasferita, sia essa un NFT o un token. Questo permetterà a Rune di essere molto meno avido di spazio on-chain rispetto ad Ordinals. Per approfondimenti tecnici: https://rodarmor.com/blog/runes/https://sovryn.com/all-things-sovryn/bitcoin-runes-tokensRune sarà anche compatibile con LN. In pratica questo protocollo entra nella competizione con i vari progetti L2 che non richiedono token esterni, quali RGB e Taproot Assets (ex Taro). I quali differiscono dai L2 che invece prevedono l'emissione di cripto aggiuntive (come Stacks o Sovryn). Solo che mentre RGB e Taproot Assets hanno date di rilascio degne di Duke Nukem Forever, Rune pare vedrà la luce fra meno di un mese. *************************************************************************************************** Sempre ad Aprile dovrebbe vedere la luce anche BOB (Build on Bitcoin)https://www.gobob.xyz/BOB è un progetto ambizioso: è sostanzialmente un layer 2 multichain che funge da livello superiore allo stesso tempo sia di Ethereum che di Bitcoin. Tecnicamente è un rollup di ETH (come Arbitrum) ma reso sicuro da un nuovo protocollo di merge mining POW chiamato Optimine Il merge mining è sostanzialmente la possibilità di riutilizzare il mining Bitcoin per mettere in sicurezza altre catene: in cambio, i minatori btc che aderiscono beneficiano delle fees di queste altre chain  L'obiettivo finale di BOB è quello di diventare un L2 nativo anche di Bitcoin sempre mediante rollup. Ricordo che i rollup (la tecnica di impacchettare le tx off-chain e di validarle una-tantum cumulativamente sulla catena principale) sono la tecnologia al momento più promettente di scaling e di estensione di funzionalità di una mainchain. Sono già attivi su ETH e stanno per arrivare su Bitcoin grazie al protocollo BitVM, senza bisogno di fork  Se questa cosa andrà in porto dovete immaginarvi BOB come un ambiente dove sia ETH che BTC girano nativamente, su entrambi è possibile applicare smart contracts (quindi Defi, stablecoin, token issuance....), compatibili con la ethereum virtual machine e la liquidità dei due mondi si fonde in una cosa sola  Come se non bastasse Marathon (il grosso miner USA) vuole portare questo BOB a livello istituzionale , mediante una sua implementazione chiamata ALYS  Sarà una primavera-estate molto calda per Bitcoin e i suoi layer 2.  Quindi, in pratica non è ancora nato, ma Stacks ha già i giorni contati no? è una shitcoin tanto quanto BOB (che avrà il suo token, immagino?),ma non ha questa capacità di "unire" la liquidità ETH e quella BTC. A questo punto, short stacks, e lungo BOB! |

Don't forget to add also Peanutswar's translation Which one am I missing? This one: I told Peanutswar to announce the reservation in your thread (and he did it) then I also told him to announce in your thread the translation is done (but I think he forgot to do that ). So, I am waiting for his announcement in my own thread AND in the correct format. Sorry, but going to dig for reservation in old posts edited in a second moment, is by far out of my realm of possiblities. Please stick to announcing the completion of the translation in a new post in my thread with |

Quando in un forum iniziano a circolare foto di gnocca è segno che l'interesse verso il tema del forum sta scemando. Comunque @fillippone nessuno potrà biasimarti per questo Invece possiamo lamentarci per la colonna sonora, questa volta da taglio delle vene !!!  Grazie per il post comunque! No ragazzi non scherziamo. A parte che foto di gnocchi su questo forum ce ne sono in abbondanza. Ma poi qui è solo incidentale. Vi assicuro che la loro presenza è stata assolutamente casuale. E la musica, caro duesoldi, è assolutamente intonata all'atmosfera del luogo. |

Le qualità di un buon trader raramente hanno a che fare con le buone idee, ma soprattutto come queste idee sono implementate: risk management, gestione della posizione, criteri di apertura/chiusura.
Un buon trader riesce magari a fare soldi anche se non ha l’idea “giusta”. Un cattivo trader può perdere soldi anche avendo la giusta intuizione di mercato.
Se non è gambling, è speculazione, se non è speculazione è trading.

They found pennies in an old pants pockets to buy some more:  I would say this time they were happily served by the market. No green candle. I believe what your saying is they’re at a loss right now but In the long run with our expectations for btc isn’t it just a temporal loss but a win for them by just acquiring some amount of btc because the price will eventually go way higher than it is right now. Actually they are not in a loss, rather their average price is quite lower than this. They are sitting on huge unrealised profit. Also for this reason they are looking to the accounting principles reform allowing to transfer such gain into their fiscal statement. |

The guy you are quoting is an idiot. Saylor is selling MSTR options that he got 10 years ago that will otherwise expire. 5000 shares per day in Q1. Saylor has been fully transparent about this in their Q4 financial results. He buys bitcoin privately with the proceeds.
Nice to hear that. Do you have a source for this information? I was blaming MS because he was selling shares, instead of Bitcoin he was telling everyone that shares would perform better than Bitcoin. Of course, if these shares are the result of options exercise this changes the framework a little bit, even if he can exercise the option and remain long the stocks without selling those. |

I think I have caught up with everything now. Don't forget to add also Peanutswar's translation Which one am I missing? An I missing something else as well? Also, I think a new thread to be translated is now overdue! What did you mean here? I should focus on a new topic and try to write a good post gathering more than 50 merits, so that you guys of AOBT have a new one to be translated! |
