How pleasant. I wake up from a nice air-conditioned siesta to see a lovely new AYH. How agreeable.

What did Warren Buffett say about making money while you're sleeping?

Yesterday's little hiatus was just a rest stop, a breather on the way, a chance to pause and see the scenery.

Let's hope the AYHs keep coming until they morph into ATHs.

Go Bitcoin go.

FTFY. The purpose of hodling is to get rich. The end result of tarding (aka gambling) is to go broke.

It looks like no AYH for us today.  At least we got back up over $21k. Maybe we'll have an AYH tomorrow.

I guess we can't complain about a green candle day after only a single red candle day.

Go Bitcoin go.

Another day, another AYH.

Lets see what tomorrow brings.

Good morning Bitcoinland. Greetings from sunny Playa del Carmen.

Other than a small dose of Montezuma's Revenge, been enjoying our stay here. Renewing acquaintances here after almost 3 years of covid-forced absence. Next week we'll get out to the jungle to see what's left of our homes there. When the cat's away, etc.

Still sidling along in the $21k range. Catching our breath, coiling for the next leg up.


Obedient stupidity vs discerning intelligence?  

I don't blame the cat for looking pissed off.

The price is independent of the news. Honey badger doesn't care.

You misspelled "hodls".

DCA isn't all about accumulating Bitcoin.

I'm currently using DCA to sell Bitcoin to pay my capital gains tax arrears. Rather than selling a chunk of it at once, I'm spreading it out as thin as I can. I talked to the revenue agent assigned to my collection file and explained that selling enough to pay it all now would be foolhardy and that spreading it out over time reduces the risk.

He's fairly aware of Bitcoin (and "crypto") and asked me what I thought of altcoins. Of course I steered him away from shitcoins and told him about steering clear of Ethereum when Vitalik first presented his white paper at Anthony Diorio's Decentral 9 years ago. I explained that pre-mining ethers was an unconscionable scam that I wanted no part of, despite the fact I could have bought them for pennies (in BTC).

That's why I invested in Bitcoin and refused to daytard (gamble) with my investment. I believed in Bitcoin as a world-changing technology and knew my investment would pay off.

I suppose buying when I could was a form of DCA. I didn't base it on a payday (job-free since 1976!) but rather on what I could afford and cherry-picked the dips as best as possible. Now I'm DCAing my sells.

The revenuer seemed to understand and cut me some slack (thanx Bob Dobbs). He's happy with the $15K per month I'm shooting him and I should be OK until the end of April when another >$1M capital gain hits the books. It was so much easier being poor.

Don't knock DCA. It works both ways.

What do you expect from Coingeek, a BSV (Bull Shit Version) propaganda site?

I like how they say Craig Wrong was "doxxed" as Satoshi. LOL. 

What a crock.

Are you serious? Day-trading is just gambling. Buying an asset you see long-term value in and holding it long-term is investing.

The Bitcoin multi-millionaires here in WO didn't get rich by day-tarding. They did it by hodling through thick and thin regardless of the price.

Nobody here is jealous of the likes of you.

Not everyone uses Twitter. I consider it along with Youtube to be the worst of the Disinformation Stuporhighway. Re-posting Twitcrap here has always bugged me.

At least the OGs resize their images.

Hi there Storageman. Long time no post. Hope all's well.

Thanks for the quote. Great poem.

Definitely awaiting the bull. Maybe not crouched though. More like laid back. 

Screw that. Buy when you can. Sell when you must.

Good morning and a belated happy new year Bitcoinland. Still plodding along sideways in the $16.7kUSD/$22.7kCAD range.

Spent yesterday recovering from 3 weeks of hectic working and partying. I noticed years ago that hangovers were always worse on New Year's Day, even when drinking one's usual amount. A global shared hangover perhaps?

Sent the wife down to Mexico City for Xmas with her family. Will meet her in Cancun around the middle of the month. Maybe I'll get to post here more. I'll still be busy though. Had to wait until the new year to liquidate enough coins to keep paying the taxman his monthly pound of flesh. Buying a house last year kept me in the top tax bracket. Should be better this year.


Remember when the internet was hailed as the Information Highway? Now it seems more like the Disinformation Superhighway.

Build more real estate?

Houses can be built. The supply of real estate is fixed (at least on this planet).

World Cup is finished.
Now it's time for Super Bowl.
Football or football?

Then it's spring training
In the middle of winter.
The boys of summer?

Reminds me of a joke about a lamp and a genie. 

It's haiku Sunday,
Quiet here at Bitcointalk.
Including the trolls.

Did they take their meds?
Can bots even take their meds?
That's the big question.

Meanwhile, it's sideways,
The market catching its breath.
Not much doing now.

Just time to enjoy
A yummy margarita
With my lovely wife.

Don't worry bro. This place'll pick back up when the price does.

Same old same old.
