Its a complicated topic, It obviously doesnt suit all industries but IMO
I really like the idea of having a choice of how to structure my working
week and balancing my work life and personal life.

At the moment it doesnt feel balanced

Work: 9am to 5.30pm
Commute: 8.15am to 9am and 5.30pm to 6.15pm
Lunch: 1 hour

My time away from the house and in work mode per day is 10 hours
[including commute and lunch]
Sleep 8 hours leaves 6 hours of the day where I get to choose what
to do.

I would happily work longer days to get a full day off either Friday or
Monday and have a 3 day block to myself.

Working from home is a new discussion brought in by COVID-19, it has
its advantages and disadvantages. he introverts love it and the
extraverts are struggling. There is in most cases no choice, it is imposed
by COVID restrictions and employers.

I would like to think that employees would have a choice how and when
to work from home, work very early from early morning to early afternoon
for example so long as the tasks get completed and help employees
stay motivated.

Just a few thoughts.

The thread title is great news and any news concerning GREEN ENERGY is going to be
positive for Bitcoin but after reading DooMAD's post im wondering how can they certify
or have they certified the green energy consumption?

If miners can secure cheaper green energy than a regular network supply they would
all be clambering to get hooked up in that region

I too use the Exodus Wallet to connect to Trezor! This is convenient to view
details of the coins held on the Trezor instead of having to connect and log into it.  


Here is a vid YOUTUBE

of course when I first got into Bitcoin over 4 years ago I knew it was for long term.

My Brother has access to my wallet and I have access to his! I trust him 100%
If you cannot trust anyone 100% you cannot risk giving them access to a wallet.

Not to be though, just watched the highlights, the Broncos looked far superior.

The Guinness Pro14 Final is on this evening. Its a great reflection of where Irish Rugby Union
is at the moment even after a slightly disapointing Sin Nations campaign.

Two Irish Provinces (clubs) battle it out for the title.

Leinster V Munster - KO 17:00 local time or GMT

Leinster have won this competition 7 times and Munster 3 times, my money is on Leinster
The team is just so dominant its hard to Munster take them.

I am still Hodling my reward! I buy and earn Bitcoin regularly, (earn weekly and buy the dips).
I spend maybe once per year but mostly HODL.

Everyone is free to do what they want with their Bitcoin.
If I die today my Bitcoin wont be frozen
My xxxxxxxxxxx has access to my wallet and I to theirs.

True, the forum can appear to be static from a visual and developmental point of view
but there is of course a lot going on back-end.

I wasnt aware that the forum was holding 125BTC, I never gave any thought to where
or how the donations and Copper membership payments are held or spent, its not my
concern, I have FREE membership of the forum.

Das Boat

I saw this on T.V back in the 80's, It was released in 1981 and is about a German
U-boat in WWII. Its a subtitled movie and is unbelievably authentic. I would rate it
as an action thriller.

There was a later version released which was dubbed and was shockingly bad.

If you are going to watch it stick with the original.
Rated 8.3 on IMDb

Thats 3 winners so far, going well, good picks.

The France v Scotland game was entertaining in its own right, there was a
lot of errors with a lot of mistakes, OK it was raining on the night.
Scotland didnt let France play their game and France didnt show their potential
until about 20 minutes in.

With the clock on RED and France ahead by 3 points their #15 Dulin opted not
to kick the ball out to end the game, instead ran the ball resulting in a Scotland
turnover followed by a converted try 4 minutes later.

There is a section of the forum dedicated to HARDWARE WALLETS which is packed full of information.



There is a degree of personal responsibility involved with owning and using hardware wallets
which involves being security conscious, the wallet is secure as long as the user practices
good habits to being mindful of possible attacks.

I own and use both.

I like the Nano smartphone app and the convenience of being able to use the wallet
with an OTG cable, downside is that phones can be mislaid or stolen easily.

I use the Trezor less often, it is where my long term HODL coins are and access it by
PC to the trezor.io official website. Downside is that its not quite as easy to access IMO,
but thats not a big deal.

Unbelievable - France 23 - 27 Scotland, Well done Timelord2067,
Great call and nice reward.

Well done to Wales, GRAND SLAM CHAMPIONS 2021.

its sensationalism and attracting an audience so they can get views,
likes and subscriptions.

Any Youtube vide I see with this sort of nonsense headlines to attract people
I just move on.

"Crash" is used to catch the people who suffer from FUD

Being new to the forum you will read more than posting yourself, and by reading we all learn.

Almost everything to do with Bitcoin and Crypto ends up here on the forum, use the search
facility but if in doubt, just ask.

You have no obligations other than follow the rules of the forum. No need to create threads
and trends, get used to the forum and Bitcoin and how they work first.

Oh, and welcome!

I'm sure there are crypto whales out there buying and selling at opportune times
in order to increase their holdings but would this also be the case with publicly listed
companies who hold Bitcoin?

For example Michael Saylors Microstrategy who own over 90,000 Bitcoin cannot just
buy Bitcoin they have to apply to the SEC, is that the case when they want to sell?

Futures trades for March end tomorrow. From the chart below we can see
that about $50 was the target so a lot of traders needed the price to drop
in order for their trades to activate.

Wow Timelord2067, thats a big call for Scotland to beat France tomorrow night.
Good price though and I hope you are right for 3 reasons.

you get your reward

Will make for a great game of Rugby

Wales win the Grand Slam.

KO tomorrow night is 20:00 GMT

For France to win the Championship they have to win by 22points with a bonus try.

yup, great time to buy, Bitcoin's monthly sale price, unfortunately I would
love to buy but dont have any spare FIAT.

I would recommend this to be the best tactic now, once we enter into April
we should see positive movement.

Buy the Dips and HODL

Its a changing Bitcoin landscape for sure. Financial institutions through the
years have been very negative to Bitcoin but over the last 12 months we have seen
an about turn and they are starting to realise that its a positive thing, why? Pandemic!

COVID-19 has changed the world and its finances, this has  presented companies with
an alternative to move to Bitcoin and forced others to do the same, who would have
thought or predicted a global pandemic could render Bitcoin as the safest wealth haven?

For the future, it can only be positive for Bitcoin, if you regard more and more
institutional investors and high wealth people entering the space positive.

Supply will decrease and demand will increase but like the pandemic the unforseen
can happen and the unknown is tomorrow.

So seeing as though the OP is "familiar with good math" I too would like to be
enlightened as to how the figure is $10,000, is there a zero missing making it $100,000?


And to backup Fundamentals Of there is this recent thread talking about the
comparison between 2017 and 2021, its a different ball game this time around.

Stop comparing BITCOIN on 2017 & 2021. It will never be same again

Seen it many many times before over the years, no need to panic. It was actually
the same this time last month because we are closing in on the last Friday of
the month when the Futures Trades terminate and nearly always there are a lot
of short orders.

Also traditionally March is the worst month for Bitcoin returns.
