I pretty much already gave a reason in that I had long considered these coins lost.  Why would I sell BTC that I had considered lost to pay for a Cybertruck instead of using investment money?  Well, that's a bit of a personal finance issue but the short end of it is that I'm uncomfortably long BTC right now.  It makes up a majority of my net worth and while I'm extremely bullish and believe we'll see a $200K BTC price in the next 18 months, life doesn't go on forever.  At some point you've got to spend some money and have some fun with toys.  If I didn't own >10x as much BTC as I do stocks, I would consider holding and spending my USD, but as stated, this recent bull run has made me slightly uncomfortable with the diversity of my investment portfolio.  

A person coming from stock to btc has better understanding of how to tackle btc then someone who has no prior idea of investment. My little experience in stock help me understanding why Hodling is important.
Everyone has its own idea about how to proceed with his invested money and if you think its right time for you to sell then go for it and enjoy life. Cheers!
I myself sold my holdings when btc crossed 60k to install Solar system and I consider it a good decision since its too much hot and electricity is super expensive.

I think what ultimately makes Bitcoin more valuable than others is that it is widely considered to be the most fairly distributed cryptocurrency and that is something that will likely make it unique forever. Obviously there is better tech out there.

The decentralised and openness of BTC is what makes it stand out among all cryptocurrency out there. We are clear that Bitcoin will use PoW and won't switch to any other consensus algorithm, there will be 21 million BTC that will be generated ever with no pre-mined coins and more. There is no doubt that BTC is the only truly decentralised cryptocurrency available till date.

I am pretty sure that the Eth boys are still not very transparent in regards to how many coins there are exactly, including but not limited to that early 2014 premine.  The supply question has never really been very verifiable as far as I have understood.. but the Eth folks seem to consider that to not really be much of a problem.

Wasn't there some verify the block questions that even came 6-12 months earlier than their other stupid ass 2022 movement into POS, which should have gotten people understanding that ethereum was constantly changing itself without much for parameters or even straight-forwardness in regarding whatever new thing it had decided to become..

As far as I know only Bitcoin is clear about it's coin process. We know 21 million Bitcoins will be generated ever at a specific rate. Rest all coins are centralised with no clear visibility of whats going on inside.
In case of Ethereum there is no upper limit of how many Ethereum that can ever exist. In Jun 2016, 30,000 Ethereum were entering circulating supply through block reward while in Jun 2022 it was dropped to 13000[1]. These numbers are too high.

My understanding of QCs is surely limited and from my personal understanding, I don't see a lot of danger for decent hashing algorithms like SHA-256 or SHA-512 to be broken considerably faster by far future QC with enough(!!) stable qubits of high coherence times and awesome gate fidelity.

I don't deny progress in this field, but current QCs are vastly overrated and very far from breaking anything important. Sorry to be the QC party pooper...

Advancements in technologies are rarely welcomed in the start. See what people used to comment about personal computers or Bitcoin in there early days of launch.
The US government has already passed a bill in Dec 2022[1] that encourages federal government agencies to adopt technology that will protect against quantum computing attacks [2]. This is why I think it's not a buzz word but a reality.

The second ODI match of the ODI series between Pakistan Women's team and England Women's team is being played today. Pakistan women have already lost a series against England women now they are playing one more series. England women are completely dominating against Pakistan women and winning the match with good performance in every match.

We haven't seen the Pakistan women's team turn around well in a single match and complete the competition well, they might be taking the defeat with their mouths shut. Today is the 2nd ODI match between Pakistan and England where rain started shortly after the start of play and the match has been stopped for now. If Pakistan Women want to survive the ODI series, there is no option to win today's match. Maybe Pakistan women team will win the match with good performance in today's match and fight for series against England in third match.

The match is delayed because of rain. Earlier Pakistan women won the toss and decided to bat first and after 6.5 overs the score is 29 for no loss. Pakistan women had already lost a T20I series 3-0 and now they have lost first ODI. Pakistan women team don't have the capacity to play against top teams like England. It's good that they are playing cricket in England and getting experience. That's the only way they can improve there performance in international cricket because back in home they don't have necessary facilities to improve there cricket.

Morning!

69K memorial weekend is beautiful. Wonder if we see 70k this weekend of celebrating those who fought for freedom across the world in wars.

This moment between 60k to 70k is no more fascinating to me. Wake me up when Bitcoin cross 75k$ or do something extraordinary. This price of 60k to 70k is new normal for Bitcoin.

In the meantime, the SEC approved the ETH ETF.
Not that this is going to change anything.
Who gives a fuck about that shitcoin?


My interest in Eth ended in 2022 when Eth 2.0 was released and they moved from PoW to PoS. That shows how centralised that coin is and controlled by few developers around the world.

My interest in Eth ended in January 2014 when they pre-mined it before the code had even been written. That shows how centralized that coin is and controlled by a few scammers around the world.

There is no cap of coins in Eth. Too many coins are in circulation, almost 120 million Eth as of now. Ethereum only moves up when Bitcoin goes up and vice versa. I have yet to see Ethereum going up due to it's own feature or some news related to Eth.

2019 isn't "meanwhile" it's ancient history in terms of Bitcoin.  Muse over this Michael Saylor tweet from 2013:

#Bitcoin days are numbered. It seems like just a matter of time before it suffers the same fate as online gambling.
Michael Saylor (@saylor) December 19, 2013

 Meanwhile is for recipes ie.

3. Bring water and rice to a boil in a covered saucepan. Then, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer until the rice is tender - about 20 minutes

4. Meanwhile, check BTC price on stamp and check for new posts in Bitcointalk.org's Wall Observer thread.

Michael Saylor is not the only one in the list of people who embraced the Bitcoin revolution despite being negative about Bitcoin in early days.

Well not that am against all what you have said and what not but I also believe that you can have all the space and time in the whole wide world and still make some stupid shit ass mistakes like not being able to control yourself especially when you run into some series of loses and I think many gamblers out there can attest to this. But majorly though, having the free time when it comes to practicing and enjoying your gambling really matters alot because the moment you get inconvenienced you start making big errors.

I would say if you have free time to spare time even then one should go for gambling with care. There are gambling where your mind is required such as poker player, one can say that you need time in such scenarios other then that gambling like sports betting is entirely about your luck. I don't get the idea that if you don't have time then don't go for gambling. Go for gambling if you have control over your emotions.

Pakistan women Vs West Indies Women.

Hayley Matthews the West Indies Women captain is having tour of her life. Today once again she has scored a fifty to help her team in giving a target of 133. Hayley Matthews and Shemaine Campbelle had a second wicket partnership of 89 runs.
Pakistan women team who hasn't won any match so far in this tour has a great chance to finally grab a victory because target is very much achievable. To score 133 runs, all Pakistan need is to bat carefully with no rush at all.

Successful traders are careful about whom to tell and share their stories with, and they seldom show up in public saying they are good traders as they prefer to remain anonymous despite their great achievements. And yes, those illusionists and fake traders have big mouths talking here and there, yet they achieve nothing aside from popularity. That is why I don't admire people who keep proud of themselves because I know that trading is not an easy game but these influencers saying the opposite about it.
Some people say that not all the things and success stories we hear on social media are true, most of them are scripted.

Warren Buffet is considered to be among top successful traders and he along with other top investors are never seen sharing there ideas or investment strategies with other. Social Media platforms like Youtube are a source of income for people who have zero experience of trading but they earn because people are buying there online courses or providing views to there videos. Following such people is wastage of time and effort. I only follow few recognised names on Youtube like Michael J. Saylor. If you want to follow someone on social media then make sure he is a credible person.

In yesterday's match against Delhi Capitals, the bowling of Kolkata Knight Riders bowled brilliantly, due to which they managed to restrict Delhi Capitals to just 153 runs. Delhi Capitals smashed the entire batting line-up while Kolkata Knight Riders' bowlers especially Barun Chakraborty single-handedly took three wickets making him Man of the Match. In yesterday's match none of the batsmen of Delhi Capitals batted patiently and intelligently they wanted to come and hit due to which they kept losing wickets at regular intervals.

We wanted the match between Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders to be full of excitement but Delhi Capitals didn't let that happen as they scored very few runs. Delhi Capitals gave Kolkata Knight Riders a reduced target but Phil Salt started batting aggressively from the start and they scored 69 runs without a wicket in the mandatory power play. It was mainly Kolkata's opening pair that took them so close to victory.

DC batting collapsed yesterday in front of KKR bowling. Kuldeep Yadav and Rishabh Pant are top scorer with 35 and 27 runs respectively. Varun Chakravarthy bowled brilliantly by picking 3 wickets in his 4 overs, he was also man of the match for his brilliant bowling. 153 is not a target to worry about for team like KKR and they won the match in 16.3 overs. Phil Salt was top scorer from KKR side, he scored 68 runs on 33 balls.
