Indeed, but I wasn't able to find "pay with BTC" option, either on-chain or LN. Have you been able to find this option?
Well that's awkward; I couldn't find any BTC option as well. A bitcoin merch shop not accepting bitcoin despite the likes of BTCPay and even the monstrosity that is BitPay are readily available. Nice catch.    |

I agree with that, yes. Smaller exchanges hardly have the liquidity to even keep up with the market price, especially with lesser-known pairs. So you may already be paying significantly more for the coins than you would on other exchanges. This is less important for intra-day trades, but for trades over the course of the day it can be quite noticeable.
What I would also give to consider is the withdrawal fees. Even if the trade does not cost any fees, it is possible that the withdrawal fees are significantly more expensive than with other exchanges.
And not only that using a certain exchange just because of fee-free trades also risks you using an exchange that's a lot less reputable. I know Binance is in a very weird place right now in terms of regulation and reputation, but if I were to use a centralized exchange, it would still be Binance. |

Unless you're using the likes of Binance and ByBit where there's so much liquidity (both has fee-free trades on BTC/stablecoin pares if I remember correctly), probably skip trying to look for zero-fee trades because you're likely to pay more(or equal amounts) in losses in other platforms because of the lack of liquidity.

The old way of conducting airdrops are pretty much dead anyway. Today, the airdrops that are likely to amount to something are conducted on platforms that are actually being used by their users (e.g. Uniswap, dYdX, 1inch, etc). Also, watch out with scams in general: https://chainsec.io/scams |

They may also want to get these coins used in a future hardfork civil war, probably after they establish the ETF and want to take control away from the crypto people and put it into the hands of the establishment via "deplatforming" BTC by removing it from exchanges and only allowing "Blackrockcoin".
I'm not totally counting this out as technically the chances of it happening are non-zero, but it's quite farfetched imo. I can imagine how much backlash they will be receiving if they decided to start a fork war and that it will be a huge hit for their reputation. Highly likely that they'll stay totally neutral and just enjoy the fees they'll be earning. |

Nansen that recently admitted that some of their customer data was leaked? Didn't know about that, but yea that sucks. In general still a very useful platform though, and just remember that exploits and databreaches like this are possible to happen to literally any platform so submit as little personal information as possible. |

I am surprised at the current love Robert Kiyosaki suddenly has for Bitcoin. He once predicted that the Bitcoin price would drop to $9,000 or even $1,100 and now he is forecasting an ATH price. I suspect that he intends to sell some of his coins so he needs to use his structure to do some publicity. It could also be that he has changed his negative perception about Bitcoin. But anything good for Bitcoin will also suit me.
If I remember correctly he was actually advocating for bitcoin for a few years now? Probably just flipped (temporarily) bearish suddenly for whatever reason. And I have the same sentiment with other people here I definitely wouldn't make decisions off Kiyosaki's opinions. Dude wrote some successful books and immediately thinks he's some market god. |

Why does it necessarily need to be using bots? You can simply just check websites that provides crypto/defi metrics that have automatically been sorted out for you to see. You just need to know what to look at (it's subjective).
e.g. Nansen, TokenTerminal, ArkhamIntelligence, etc.

Pretty much this lol. People immediately jump the wagon when they see "priceless" thinking "valueless" without taking look at the context. In this case Kiyosaki is just being smart with marketing something that could potentially stir both bulls and bears depending on the understanding; and at the same time the fact that it will grab media headlines(which it did). |

People simply underestimate how hard it is. I've had shorts in the past that I was pretty sure I was right (I was directionally right though) but end up getting burned anyway by those scam wicks. Or maybe my risk control just sucks I guess.

I watched some YouTube bloggers who tell guides how to find successful whale wallets in DEX, and poke their deals. Such whales have insider information. But when I really started checking the transactions of the token wallet, I saw that most of the first buyers use clean and new wallets. It's logical, why leave the story behind, so that people like me and other guys copy them. I thought that it would be possible to track the crypto wallets that have just been created, and monitor them. parse wallets from the first tranazktsii, map their addresses with the names of tokens and try to repeat their purchases. Maybe my questions are stupid and my ideas are naive.
I use both Nansen and Arkham Intelligence for wallet tracking. Don't expect every feature to be free, though. Also, you really can't know if a wallet has just been newly created. You can only know by their first transaction. And how do you even know for sure if the new wallet is a whale's wallet? It could be anyone's wallet. |

That's some unexpectedly sick bitcoin-related designs right there. If only the designs were a bit less in-your-face with the "Bitcoin" wordings, as to at least not expect everyone to know that I know about Bitcoin but rather only the enthusiasts. |

3. Unless you're talking about lightning and other L2s, bitcoin isn't really 'that' fast. Just a lot less annoying than using traditional methods especially for bigger amounts. Until you transact with someone to whom you don't share the same bank. Just imagine the time (and cost) it'd take for signature campaign participants to get paid in fiat every week. Exactly hence why I said that bitcoin isn't necessarily "faster" with the sending speed, but specifically, far less annoying in general because of the obvious lack of AML/KYC and the lack of required intrusive information(as we have with banks). |

But what if, we are caught off guard by the market at this snapshot point with another unexpected long dip again whereas we're expecting a little more pump in October?
Are you on guard for any unexpected?
Or more unexpectedly not the fact that we'd have a dip, but the fact that we immediately dropped back down lolololol.  Not sure about you guys, but this looks like an absolute nightmare to trade. I'll stick with shorting shitcoins with low leverage. |

Buddy have u seen the charts from march ?? you still think market is not manipulated ?? bitcoin volatility is worst than stocks right now. and you still need proof ?? no one is blaming anyone for bad trades. its just clearly seen the market is manipulated by big players for their benefits.
Volatility doesn't automatically mean manipulation. But sure, I'm not saying that bitcoin is NOT getting manipulated; but tell me specifically how it's being manipulated because you seem too sure that the volatility was indeed caused by manipulation. I'll wait. |

1. Something being an "asset" doesn't automatically mean it can grow.
2. Bitcoin is also being regulated by governments. It's just that people can use it regardless what the regulation is.
3. Unless you're talking about lightning and other L2s, bitcoin isn't really 'that' fast. Just a lot less annoying than using traditional methods especially for bigger amounts.
4. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

I do believe that there are some technical indicators that can make you think "huh, people are extra bullish/bearish on this certain cryptocurrency/asset". But there's no single TA that would make you think "huh, this will 100% for sure go up/down".
TA should only be used to skew odds by a few percentage points. Not something that would make something guaranteed to move a certain way.

Dont really get what you mean by Sideways chop in your point 3.
You know those boring days where bitcoin (and even ethereum) barely moves? Like sometimes not even $100 in either direction? Yeap, they're mostly called sideways chop or "crab market" in non-professional trading/investing communities. |

Too much people are betting on the fact that the same will happen historically.
So I'm betting:
1. Halving comes
2. We dump
3. We sideways chop for a good amount of time
4. People realizing that the same won't happen, hence dump
5. We pump once weak hands leave
I'm not putting heavy money on this, but I'm going to have some dry powder ready.
Same cycle with different moments in time. In my opinion, point 2 and point 3 have the most potential to occur after point 1 is formed from this cycle pattern and Bitcoin prices may not appear pleasant. Yes. we have to be prepared, but at least it will be a benchmark and a moment that many people have been waiting for. I'm on my phone so I can't check the charts currently, but #2 and #3 frequently happens if I remember correctly. It's the #3 part (and a longer chop than usual, probably) that will I think make step #4(hence #5 after)occur. |
