561  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What will you do if your country did not legalize cryptocurrency? on: September 27, 2023, 04:09:21 AM
I have to separate the expression regarding the hope of investing because of the halving from the question you asked in the last line of the topic.

Bitcoin is a very useful thing to many people. It has provided very good opportunities, job opportunity, trading opportunity and lots more for many people to earn money for their essentials of life. Bitcoin halving is fast approaching, giving many people hope of investment, and making reasonable profit at the end.
I can quite agree with the statement that Bitcoin is a very useful thing for everyone because Bitcoin can provide good opportunities for everyone who believes in it. But when it comes to investing in Bitcoin, I don't think it's solely because of the halving in Bitcoin, because investors who want to invest their money in Bitcoin can do so at any time without having to wait for the halving. Although the Bitcoin halving is getting closer, it could provide a slight opportunity to gain maximum profits if the price increase is more significant. But in general, investing in Bitcoin can be done whenever we want without having to rely on whether there is a halving or not.

Quote
Yet in some countries it is completely illegal. What will you do if you are a fan of bitcoin but your country did not legalize cryptocurrency?
If your country or other countries still consider Bitcoin to be illegal, you don't need to publish more about Bitcoin to protect yourself from countries that may not really understand Bitcoin. This way you can continue to find and store your own Bitcoin quite safely, meaning it will not prevent you or anyone else who wants to use Bitcoin to invest or trade. Because in life you can still use fiat as usual without having to act in rebellion against the government.
562  Local / Bahasa Indonesia (Indonesian) / Re: Berani mengambil resiko apakah salah satu tindakan menuju sukses on: September 24, 2023, 09:34:35 AM
Saya rasa pasti banyak orang yang berada di forum ini berinvestasi di btc, namun tentunya berinvestasi di btc tidak terlepas dari yang namanya resiko, dan kadang dalam berinvestasi di btc apalagi dengan modal yang besar yang tentunya resikonya juga sangat tinggi dan saya pikir kalau punya tujuan kita harus mengambil tindakan dan jangan takut dengan resiko, dan saya ingin bertanya kepada teman semua, apakah keberanian mengambil resiko adalah tindakan yang bagus dalam investasi di btc dan juga bisnis lainnya?  Saya ingin mendengarnya dari anda?.....tapi menurut saya berani mengambil resiko berinvestasi di btc adalah hal yang bagus selama kita menggunakan uang menganggur.

Pekerjaan apapun didunia ini selalu tidak terlepas dari yang namanya resiko om, karena setiap pekerjaan itu akan selalu ada kandungan resiko dengan tingkat ataupun level yang berbeda dari setiap pekerjaan. Begitu juga dengan investasi apapun yang memang selalu sangat dekat dengan resiko karena investasi juga bagian dari pekerjaan untuk mencari keuntungan dan jika investasi yang kita tujukan itu untuk Bitcoin, saya pikir kita tidak perlu merasa takut atau khawatir om karena Bitcoin telah memperlihatkan bukti yang sangat jelas sekali dalam setiap periode sehingga orang-orang yang berani mengambil resiko setelah mengetahui baiknya aset seperti Bitcoin adalah tindakan yang sangat bagus.

Karena jika ada seseorang yang berani mengambil resiko dalam berinvestasi tetapi dia secara umumnya belum mengetahui tentang aset yang dia investasikan itu kecuali hanya mengenal namanya saja seperti "Bitcoin" misalnya, saya pikir hal itu bukan sebuah keberanian yang cukup baik om, melainkan tindakan nekat dari dia sendiri untuk melakukannya. Karena orang yang sudah berani mengambil resiko dalam berinvestasi (dalam hal ini adalah pada Bitcoin), minimalnya dia sudah tahu banyak tentang Bitcoin dan juga pernah belajar investasi pada beberapa orang yang sudah berpengalaman dibidang tersebut untuk menambah ilmunya sebelum dia melakukan tindakan oleh dirinya sendiri.
563  Economy / Speculation / Re: How much ,as you think ,is 1 bitcoin in 2025? on: September 24, 2023, 09:14:25 AM
More likely bitcoin will be at more significant levels than where it is presently and with expanded request from many more people on trades.
The influence of many people who are still very interested in entering the market is due to the Bitcoin halving and Bitcoin confidence which has increased globally even though on the one hand the price of Bitcoin itself has not increased significantly. Because in general there are still many people who really want to buy and own Bitcoin even though it is not for trading purposes, because Bitcoin can also be used as a long-term investment even though some people are waiting for the halving moment to see how much profit they can get through Bitcoin.

Quote
Presently numerous markets and sellers are supporting the holding of cryptos, vulnerability is the drawn out interest in 2025 may not be a major ascent particularly the BTC market.
Regarding interest or demand in the market, it is likely that it will get bigger before 2025, because most people will try to own Bitcoin before the halving which is predicted to occur next year so there will be many people who want to buy Bitcoin before it happens next year. If estimated, it could be that at the end of this year the level of demand will start to increase because there are many people who really want to welcome the halving by having Bitcoin in their wallets.
564  Economy / Economics / Re: The impact of war on global economy. on: September 24, 2023, 08:34:34 AM
1. Increase in the national GDP is least likely to be caused by a war.
2. Oil is considered the most crucial resource in modern warfare.
3. War affects the stock market by causing a decline in stock prices.

What do you guys think? Is this true or false?
I will not respond to the first point because I think it is still possible that the opposite of what you said is possible. But the second point is clearly possible because oil has long been a staple used by everyone in all conditions, including war. Whether it's oil for consumption by the public or oil used in vehicles and machines that run modern technology today, the third point could also be true because war can have a bad influence on stock prices and also prices of real estate assets around countries experiencing war.
565  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin on banking systems. on: September 24, 2023, 07:58:24 AM
Does Bitcoin really have challenged the monopoly of your country's traditional banking systems?

What do you guys think?

I don't think the presence of Bitcoin will challenge the traditional banking monopoly system in any country, because Bitcoin is here to make it easier for everyone in several ways that traditional banking has not had. However, if traditional banks feel challenged by the presence of Bitcoin among the public, this may be due to the lack of new conveniences that their customers require from banks in terms of serving their own customers.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin is not like that because Bitcoin only needs to be understood well enough by everyone who wants to use it for several things such as investment, trading and also just to store it for the long term. So I don't see Bitcoin challenging the banking sector through any system, because the only ones who feel challenged are the traditional banks themselves when Bitcoin is already so well known among people throughout the world.
566  Local / Ekonomi, Politik, dan Budaya / Re: Apakah boleh mengunakan agama untuk politik di Indonesia ? on: September 23, 2023, 02:54:22 PM
perpolitikan di Indonesia selalu mengunakan cara-cara extrim untuk meraih suara, terkadang ada yang membawa -bawa  agama, suku dan lain lain, semestinya ini patut dicegah dengan ketat supaya tidak terjadi kontra yang jauh dan salah  mengunakan.

Selama hal itu tidak melanggar aturan negara dan aturan-aturan dari keagamaan yang ada di Indonesia, saya kira hal tersebut tidak menjadi masalah untuk digunakan selama penempatannya bisa sangat jelas karena di beberapa provinsi hal-hal yang menyangkut dengan keagamaan masih sangat diutamakan sehingga para pemilih atau pemberi suara untuk Caleg tertentu pasti akan mempertimbangkan masalah agamanya apa. Karena hal itu juga merupakan sebuah toleransi yang cukup jelas dan selama seseorang tidak menjual imannya demi politik serta tidak menyesatkan orang lain demi politik, saya pikir tidak ada yang salah dengan hal tersebut.

Meskipun pada 2018 Kementrian Agama Republik Indonesia pernah menegaskan bahwa berpolitik itu justru harus berlandaskan dan berorientasi pada ajaran agama. Sebab, kehidupan politik bisa menjadi tanpa moral dan etika, bila tanpa panduan agama. Dan Hal yang tidak boleh dilakukan, adalah memperalat ajaran agama untuk kepentingan pragmatis politik praktis, sehingga terjadi manipulasi dan eksploitasi agama. Sumber: kemenag.go.id
567  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why Is Bitcoin Price Increasing? on: September 23, 2023, 02:40:34 PM
But why are you afraid and don't want bitcoin to fall to 25k$? I think it's good for us, it doesn't do us any harm. Not that most of us would say we would buy more if prices fell more and that was actually an opportunity. I don't want to predict what will happen next but if it drops again, I think a lot of people will be happier because they say they will buy more bitcoin. As for me, the short-term price doesn't make much sense and I don't care too much about it, what I'm waiting for is after the halving happens.
There are a lot of people who are waiting for the Bitcoin halving next year, so it would be very reasonable to expect a price drop if there is an intention from many people to buy more Bitcoin. But personally, I just don't want to see more price drops in Bitcoin because some people only talk about wanting to buy more Bitcoin when the price drops, but in reality there are still people who are afraid to buy when they see another price drop in Bitcoin. But if it's only a drop of $25K, that's still pretty good because it's not too different from the current price.
568  Economy / Economics / Re: The Kids buying Mcdonald order via BTC on: September 23, 2023, 02:28:48 PM
I just observed a kid on Twitter doing a Bitcoin payment transaction at McDonald's, and it's amusing to see that they can do it. However, I feel bad for the kid because he spent something like 170,000 Sats or something. Its parent must have a sizable amount of Bitcoin.
I am not surprised to see that McDonald's is willing to accept Bitcoin as payment for their products, because this has been going on at McDonald's for a long time. As mentioned by voi.id, in September 2021, El Salvador became the first country in the world to allow the use of Bitcoin as legal tender. Since then, McDonald's has accepted Bitcoin at 19 of its stores in the country. This means that this kind of thing has been going on for a long time at McDonald's and maybe there are more children there who know about it so they might be taught by their own parents how to use Bitcoin when shopping at McDonald's.

Quote
But even so, I'm still in awe of how these kids were raised by their parents since even at such a young age, they are progressively learning about the idea and features of how important Bitcoin is to them. I respect parents who do an excellent job of educating their kids.
This kind of thing is worthy of admiration because in other countries there may still be very few children who can use Bitcoin because of certain obstacles such as their parents who may not know about Bitcoin and also their surrounding environment which still does not want to accept Bitcoin like at McDonald's. So what these children are doing is quite good and I am also very impressed with them for this and it is very possible that their parents already understand how to use Bitcoin in several things including shopping.
569  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Earnings on: September 23, 2023, 01:45:54 PM
I am a newbie in bitcoin I want to learn a lot about bitcoin I want to do marketing and trading with bitcoin if any of you are expert or if someone is more skilled please give me some suggestion so that I can do something good and my future is good.  can shine through bitcoin and i can stay away from casino and gambling games and without these two means i can earn money in my life and i can work hard to earn bitcoin everyone.

I don't know what kind of expert you are looking for or need in this matter, because if you just want to know about Bitcoin and learn everything that has to do with Bitcoin, I think you can also find that on several websites that you can use. as your initial reading to find out about Bitcoin. But if you want to get Bitcoin so you can trade within a certain period of time, you only need to provide as much capital as you can and buy it directly on the market or large exchanges that are very well known like Binance.

But it would be better if you first learn about Bitcoin thoroughly by reading more articles on the internet or in this forum so that you are no longer careless when you start trading. Because I'm sure there are many beginners who regret experiencing losses and blame Bitcoin, even though they themselves still don't have more knowledge about Bitcoin. So, as a beginner, you should be better than other beginners in Bitcoin, which means you have to be willing to learn seriously so you can be successful and have more beautiful dreams.
570  Economy / Economics / Re: If the global economy collapses what's the first thing you do? on: September 22, 2023, 04:05:30 PM
Gold has indeed been proven to be a very valuable asset in any situation, but in the era of very sophisticated technology, Bitcoin can be a tool to protect against inflationary turmoil. Indeed, I also admit that Bitcoin cannot be used as a guide because its value fluctuates, but for me Bitcoin is the first alternative to gold.
Some people at this time have even made Gold the second asset of choice after Bitcoin, because placing Bitcoin in first place as an asset full of value is also not a problem in conditions like now. Moreover, if they also don't leave gold as an asset which is still good enough to have in every condition, because people who like to own Bitcoin and store it well will not really care about price fluctuations that occur in the market because they can still wait for the price to change. it's better when they care about the price of Bitcoin.

Quote
Currently changes in the global order are very fast, I will never be fixated on just one commodity. Gold has indeed been proven and is quite safe as a hedge tool, but I will continue to read developments carefully and in a situation like the current one, Bitcoin remains a consideration because it is possible that the price of Bitcoin will rise drastically and will add value quickly even though it has quite high risks too.
It is indeed time to pay more attention to several commodity assets and also to Bitcoin which has developed over a very long period of time so it is appropriate to consider and pay attention to its further developments. Because Gold will not have much more development other than on the price side which is more likely to remain stable in the long term.
571  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is there still hope for the price of BTC to hit back $69k this year? on: September 22, 2023, 03:50:36 PM
The recent price and movement of  Bitcoin had made it very clear for those were expecting something special and big to occur after the price reaches 31k this year to remain quite about btc big expectations they have about Bitcoin. The price falling back to 25k is a typical example that Bitcoin transaction is really really hard to predict and that there is actually no expert to it as everyone is just merely speculating and nothing more.
People who still like to speculate on Bitcoin prices are also based on facts that have happened in Bitcoin, although they can still miss what will happen in the future. Because if there are experts who can really know what the next price will be in Bitcoin, then that person will be rich first because he already knows the key to what the price will be. But this is always difficult for anyone to know so that everyone has the opportunity to profit if there is an improvement in prices in the market.
572  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Seniors apply patience and kindness to newcomers on: September 22, 2023, 03:42:29 PM
I have concerns about the interactions between experienced members and newcomers in this forum. Occasionally, some experienced members can be quite harsh and may forget that newcomers are here to learn. While constructive corrections are beneficial, it's crucial to avoid using harsh or abusive language.
If you are someone who also wants to learn from experienced members on this forum, I think you don't need to see harsh words other than words that are useful for yourself. Because not all experienced members here speak harshly towards all newcomers, even though you may have read words that you think are harsh but according to other people they are just ordinary words. So there's no need to think about these harsh words if you are focused on gaining more knowledge through experienced members here.

Quote
It's true that some posts from newcomers may be of low quality or show a lack of willingness to learn initially. However, I believe that giving them a chance and treating them with kindness is a reasonable approach.
I also don't see any bad treatment of newcomers by experienced members on this forum, and you can see this in every topic that newcomers create with quite reasonable questions. What you have to see there is that there are always several experienced members who are still willing to provide answers to questions asked by newcomers quite accurately and are even accompanied by links that can be accessed for careful study.
573  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will there be a boom again? on: September 21, 2023, 01:37:44 PM
With all the altcoins popping up in the market and with it most of the time being a shitcoin, I think that it's in your best interest to just stick to bitcoin because at the least your wait is guaranteed profit unlike altcoins where you don't know if you're hitting a goldmine or a septic tank and you're most likely to hit septic tanks, plus a lot of altcoins can't maintain their growth spurt, they are unlikely to repeat their pumps so it's not worth your wait for a pump that's not going to happen. Stick to bitcoin.
I like your advice, because in fact it has been seen that sticking to Bitcoin is the right solution rather than spending more time and money on altcoins, most of which have become useless shitcoins in the crypto space and market. Bitcoin is very suitable to be held in the long term and is also very suitable to be considered a long-term investment because in reality it never disappoints patient holders. And the small number of people who are disappointed are only those who don't have the patience to wait for the best moment in Bitcoin so they often blame everything on cryptocurrency when they can't profit from it.
574  Economy / Economics / Re: Our future with renewable energy. on: September 21, 2023, 12:04:47 PM
Renewable energy development is capital intensive and demands groundbreaking effort to actualize it' and only well advanced nations are capable of achieving the feat and sustaining it . If we're looking at hydropower and geothermal energy only a very few countries can afford it's development.
In reality, this is still the case because of the many countries in the world, only a few countries are able to develop renewable energy, which is the newest model that has never been used by many less developed countries. However, as long as renewable energy can provide more positive things for the environment and the country, I think several countries that are not yet developed and are making themselves more developed should also study this so that in the future they can also use renewable energy for themselves.

Quote
Even as that those other sources of renewable energy preferably wind, solar that are regarded as the most cost-effective energy yet there are some countries that can't afford developing it, particularly those countries of the south pole that are battling to maintain non-renewable energy
Each country's ability to develop something like renewable energy is different because it not only concerns natural resources, but also involves human resources and certain tools needed. So when renewable energy already exists in several developed countries now, other countries also need to see it as a very important thing so that in the future they can also use it as used by these developed countries. Because developments in good things need to be considered so that countries that are not yet developed are not always left behind in terms of renewable energy.
575  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: It is only Bitcoin and nothing else on: September 21, 2023, 10:24:50 AM
Indeed, investing in altcoins is not bad at all but we need the right time to invest in them and when the bull season comes or during the bull season is a good time to invest in altcoins. 
This means only considering a certain time when we want to bring money into altcoins, because altcoins are not suitable for long-term investments like what many people do through Bitcoin. So altcoins are only used when there are good moments, because all altcoins are very different from Bitcoin which is basically good enough and suitable for long-term investment.

Quote
I don't deny that altcoins are risky and mostly scams but honestly, I prefer a diverse market rather than just monopolistic and boring.  altcoins are risky but they offer better returns than bitcoin so investing in them is not a complete disadvantage.  if we choose the right project then we can get huge profits that today's bitcoin will never be able to do.
This is certainly not a matter of right or wrong when you want to invest, but it is related to the matter of getting more profits. So there is nothing wrong for someone who wants to put their money into an altcoin that they like as long as the return can be greater even though the risk is always there. This means that as long as it can be very profitable, there is no harm in doing it, especially if some people really like putting money in lots of places so they will feel bored if they only put it in one place.

Tujuan yang cukup baik teman dan saya harap anda benar benar memahami tentang bitcoin dalam segala bentuk keunggulan yang di milikinya. btw banyak hal yang dapat membangun pengetahuan di forum ini tentang bitcoin dan cara berinvestasi dengan baik. Untuk itu anda dapat belajar di segala sub forum ini teman baik itu di sub lokal atau sub luar.
Investasi adalah bagian dari aksi atau pekerjaan yang dilakukan setelah seseorang mendapatkan ilmu dari berbagai kalangan atau sektor seperti membaca di beberapa website dan juga di forum ini karena kalau hanya belajarnya di forum ini saya kira masih kurang lengkap jika hal itu untuk menambah wawasan. Jadi sarannya adalah lebih baik untuk peduli kepada ilmunya terlebih dahulu sebelum langsung terjun kedalam investasi karena hal itu adalah bagian dari pekerjaan yang dikerjakan oleh banyak orang setelah memiliki lebih banyak ilmu.

Quote
semangat dan keyakinan akan membuat anda berhasil dalam segala bidang, pastinya dalam investasi yang menjadi target anda dalam berada di forum ini. Anda bisa mendalami banyak topik yang cukup bermanfaat untuk mendapatkan informasi terbaru tentang bitcoin bahkan anda juga bisa mendalami tentang perkembangan tren altcoin di sub altcoin.
Hal yang om katakan itu mungkin juga bisa dijadikan sebagai alasan utama bagi sebagian orang yang masuk ke forum ini, karena setelah semua hal yang berkaitan dengan Bitcoin dan altcoin sudah dipelajari dengan cukup konsisten, dan pada akhirnya semua ilmu yang dipelajari itu bisa dipakai untuk mencari uang, baik didalam forum ini maupun diluar forum ini tentunya seperti investasi dan juga trading.
577  Local / Bahasa Indonesia (Indonesian) / Re: Apakah ada perbedaan sesudah naik ranking on: September 14, 2023, 12:25:15 PM
Halo teman lokal Indonesia, saya ingin mengobrol santai seputar masalah peringkat dan Jujur saya sangat menikmati berada di forum ini, karena wawasan saya sedikit demi sedikit berkembang, tapi saya ingin bertanya kepada teman lokal semuanya apakah ada perbedaan kalau anda sudah menerima merit atau sesudah naik peringkat misalnya menjadi full member dan sebagainya?
Halo juga om, untuk hal perbedaan setelah menerima merit dan merasakan peningkatan pada ranknya pasti ada om, yang secara logikanya om sendiri juga bisa merasakan perbedaan ketika masih Brand New, kemudia berubah menjadi Newbie dan setelah itu berubah menjadi Junior Member seperti sekarang. Itu adalah perbedaan yang sangat nyata yang bisa dirasakan oleh semua orang termasuk oleh om sendiri dan satu lagi adalah perbedaan pada tingkat penghasilan ketika seseorang sudah terdaftar didalam sebuah kampanye ataupun ketika dia mulai masuk kedalam sebuah kampanye. Dua hal tersebut termasuk kedalam perbedaan yang sangat nyata terlihat pada semua orang om.

Quote
Tapi kalau misalnya sesudah naik rank menjadi lebih hebat dalam diskusi dan wawasan saya rasa itu adalah hal yang positif, namun menurut saya akan lebih baik lagi kalau misalnya tidak naik peringkat pun kualitas diskusi wawasan dan keilmuan pun harus di tingkatkan.

Bagaimana menurut agan agan semuanya?
Nah untuk hal yang satu ini, om harus melihat pemahaman yang lebih luas karena setiap orang yang masih hidup dimuka bumi ini memang harus memiliki wawasan yang lebih baik dan ilmu yang banyak supaya bisa lebih memudahkannya dalam hal apapun termasuk dalam hal bekerja. Artinya wawasan dan ilmu itu tidak hanya berkaitan dengan orang-orang yang telah mengalami peningkatan rank di forum ini, tetapi untuk semua orang yang ada diluar forum ini juga harus memiliki wawasan dan ilmu karena hal itu sudah menjadi hal yang sangat penting didalam kehidupan semua orang. Jadi saya tidak akan merasa heran ketika melihat orang-orang dengan rank yang lebih kecil juga memiliki wawasan yang lebih luas serta ilmu yang lebih bagus, karena dua hal tersebut akan selalu berbeda dari setiap orang.
578  Economy / Speculation / Re: Good time to sell? on: September 14, 2023, 11:07:08 AM
A simple question to those who are hoping to profit on the next Bitcoin bull-run:
How do you determine when is the good time to sell?
in other words: how would you know we've reached the peak?
The question looks so simple, but it is not easy to give the answer even though it sounds very simple. However, on this occasion I will still provide a few answers regarding when is the right time to sell? then the answer is when you see the profits and feel satisfied with those profits. But for the answer to when we know a price has reached a peak, this is a little difficult to say because the guideline doesn't necessarily have to look at the ATH number that has been reached on a particular coin or cryptocurrency in the market in the past.

Quote
Do you have a set "goal" price at which you'd be selling no matter what happens? Do you intend to sell incrementally as the price goes up? Or maybe when the price gradually drops (e.g. it goes down for X days in a row), indicating we're past the peak?
My goal in selling is because there is already a profit, but if conditions are experiencing a downturn I will not immediately sell even though I have not yet made a loss and can still make a profit. I will continue to hold it until I see the next increase in the market because usually after a price decrease there will definitely be another price increase in the future and those are two things that I see very often in the market so I don't really care about the peak price because it is very it is difficult to know what peak price will occur in a coin like Bitcoin for example.
579  Economy / Economics / Re: Was just watching the big short. Why do the times suddenly feel similar? on: September 14, 2023, 07:53:26 AM
Just watching that movie gave me such chills, my family and I lost our house we lost everything in 2008 when the housing market crashed. Honestly after living through it in the worst way you can see how I would be such an advocate for bitcoin. Many other folks didn't have to go though that, and so they don't quite understand. I couldn't hell but think how strangely similar the feeling back then how it almost feels like the same type of conditions for things to happen. I said it the other day whilst playing golf to my m8 that something big was brewing, I could just feel it. Could we be on the verge of some crazy market crashes like in 2008?

I will respond to your question which is located in the last sentence, namely about the market crash which you consider crazy. Actually, it is difficult to give a very precise answer to this, but if it is only about crashes, it seems that everyone will never find a market crash at the same level as 2008 in any market now and also for the future.

Because every year there are always changes in several sectors, so things that have changed can also influence the level of market collapse, although the level of recovery will not be easier to occur. However, believe me that a market crash at the same level that you have seen before will not happen in the near future, even if it does happen I think the level will also be very different from what happened in 2008.
580  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How valuable BTC has become overtime on: September 14, 2023, 06:35:45 AM
It's inarguable that BTC value has grown immensely overtime and it's one reason to keep accumulating BTC as you can. Apple has just unveiled iPhone 15 which is estimated to cost about 0.031 BTC with the current price. Comparing the price of previous iPhone to bitcoin, you'll see the important of investing in bitcoin than buying assets that depreciate in value overtime. Of course, the risk of investing in bitcoin can not be overlooked just like any other investment but the bitcoin risk is worth taking.
This image below was taking from Coingecko comparing BTC needed to buy iPhone over the years.

Previously I had never compared the value of Bitcoin with any device, including devices like the iPhone. But when you reviewed this here, I was also surprised that in 2021 you only needed 0.018 BTC if you wanted to get an iPhone 13, which in that year was the highest series for the iPhone. So there is a slight difference between the price of an iPhone in 2021 and the price of an iPhone this year with a different series, but this is only due to the influence of the current value or price of Bitcoin.

Quote
Imagine holding the BTC that you used to buy iPhone 4s till the present day and see the number of iPhone 15 you can acquire with it. If you have not started investing in bitcoin, this is the right time to start.
It does look amazing, but it feels very boring to keep updating a device like the iPhone every year, even though in each series there are slight updates to the features and specs in it. And it is possible that next year there will also be differences again when the price of Bitcoin starts to increase because it will continue to be adjusted to the value in Bitcoin.
