Tradingview has been around a while, its a stable platform thats the main thing you wont easily get elsewhere outside of paying for it.   The paid for options are fairly vast and you can debate those.    Freestockcharts is one I used over a decade, they allow free use and track many commodities across the entire market.
  Bitcoinwisdom most people know but its not really going to remember long term your chart ideas though it can be ok for months theres no login etc..   Marketwatch has useful charts, if you use a ticker symbol for whatever you are charting.   This would be alot easier if BTC had a proper etf.

I have the ideal answer that fits most people, you will pay according to tax allowances mostly.    If BTC did go up, why would you sell would be the most common question at that time and many will buy more hence why these price patterns tend to spike because people forget it can go a different direction then the prior months have led upto.    But taking some profit especially when BTC has no yield to it and all the gain is in the capital unless you are somehow operating a kind of business involvement or capital deployment.   I think that might be the main difference in government eyes, ETH does attempt to involve users in its transaction fee money flow and BTC is exclusive and users gain nothing directly its quite simple hence why BTC should be left alone I imagine and you can stay within the tax system.  Many wont care about this but the big gainers and those with alot of capital to sell, deploy, rebalance when BTC rises would be thinking about the tax system.  My theory is we always see selling before tax event dates in the normal April to April tax calendar.

You probably owe money to a bank, hence why it makes more sense to have an easily assessible deposit to service your debts.   That simple take explains the majority of the Dollar reserve system, its actually mostly about debt trading rather then the traditional asset backed monetary system we had for capitalism a long time.   How it works is kinda gravity defying but it has thus far.

I've responsibly gambled within my budget but wasted time doing so, I'd say its arguably an effect of spending too much playing games.  Like any game you could be playing it too much even if you dont gamble too much that could be a negative, you should by studying some proper subject not trying to guess the impossible outcome of a game even a horse race etc.

Capitalism only really works because people are far more valuable beyond measure then any currency or valued item.   Ultimately we only have so much time to even be people and hence a marriage based on the cheaper of those two things is not worth half as much, but depends who, where and how you are.   For some people marriage is business at least to start off with, I wont criticize its their decision or I hope so as theres also forced marriage still too.

The speculative element to the ETF story is already played out, I think its in the price.   If it were to occur theres a slight positive from that, maybe we beat some prior resistance level.   What really needs to happen is an actual greater level of buying or a wider audience perhaps, then you have larger demand vs same supply and price must then rise.
   My general thoughts is BTC rises on actual greater usage, ETF holdings arent usage as such its just a way to follow price in another way.  The ETF will have a charge for the holding, so yield is negative to holders.
   Im only truly bullish on wider population of users and people who do use BTC, we already got enough speculative elements in BTC price action.   It'll happen but its slower then all these price jumps people drool over.

27075 is the line I'll draw for positive BTC here, I relate that to the peak July and low August of Summer pricing fairly recently.  Referencing Fibonacci levels matches most of the daily action.   My take for 2023 prior and now still is consolidation or simpler still sideways.   We are somewhat positive but still sideways is a good description for most of the movement rather then being assuming negative on the down move or positive will last when we rise as we did today.
   Without passing 27075 and also confirming it as support to rise further, put it in the rear view not overhead or a ceiling as it easily can still be now; we are sideways.   Seems we  have to write down sideways on the whiteboard and just look to check our course on every move, are we to do the same once again repeat or can we move forward some.   When we are negative, my take is look for a positive upwards and that was my idea recently, now I consider sideways and target upside is 28913.  If we get 28913, its past the 200 day average and can we stick that positive gain at that point will be my question or once again we must assume a repeat and sideways.

If we say AI instead of bot would that make any more sense.    We're heading towards where a bot is easily more useful to follow for collated information and responses then a person can be.  This isnt a negative outcome, the part where its a bot but deceiving people or the info is false thats a negative and also true.  I think AI is not just hype, it'll increase seems like.




Whatever Elon's rules and the websites rules, there is a legal requirement in each and every country they operate in.  I know at least some of these countries will count some of the topics on X as hate speech and you cannot just say whatever you like when it involves whats perceived as threats or anything violence related.   I dont like the PC culture especially but I think we already know not every topic will be ok, point is that in the course heated discussion people basically can come close to legal boundaries and go past that line where its no longer a peaceful debate hence why the website is always going to need some kind of moderation.  You cannot have this dream like idea of total free speech, theres always some who want to take it too far thats been true every year that Twitter or X existed.  
  I beginning to think Elon's tenue might not be a disaster, he can perhaps turn it around enough to say Im done and exit at some point with a few improvements perhaps to the quality and bots he complained about.  Maybe thats all he needs but my doubt would still be he makes a profit or it was actually a worthwhile project for him in personal advancement but not everything is monetary.

The point about losing on slot is its fairly normal, its part of the game to lose but trick is to win more then you lose and thats how you get ahead overall.  Easier said then done, but anyone going into playing slots not accepting they will be losing maybe some maybe in majority that day is going to be blindsided by reality.    I try to outplay, outlast the losing cycle of any session and get into the wins enough that I can come out ahead of where I started, thats my simple plan.  When Im ahead I usually stop not that long after to bank the days gains.   Then I start all over and try again the next day

GT ticket gained from just the email spin is lottery winning type odds of unlikelihood.   Thats some great luck you should be grateful for.  As I understand it the gold tickets odds were not adjusted up or down, they just stayed the same which was they were always unlikely it was only ever the 50 500 5000 rewards that got altered to more unlikely.   So its always been rare, I believe since the start I may have got a ticket this way but I might just be dreaming that :p

It doesnt matter a ton but I was right enough of using up any spare spins, we seeing BTC price make moves today.  Very good action, now we're ahead of last 50 days average thats something new and just in time for those who bet the end of month price.   Can it last and actually stick so people outside of the favorite bet (and lowest odds) win their guess this month.

Its already true to some extent crypto is held as some store of currency but in reserve terms only 1 or 2 central banks maybe have crypto.   The most famous is El Salvador, maybe if they are successful in their policy it will be there after a dozen or more and we can see it develop into something.  At present the value held is by the people, mostly those who wish to have some reference to global currency which they lack in their national currency.  

I think sideways, continue as you were.   26111 is the current level I need price to hold as we are continually backing off from the highs but also multiple attempts to move upwards.   
   If I look for a clearer sign I would respect the higher time frames, peak prices are also in line with 50 day average.  So ideally I'm looking for that ceiling to break and our range to be something new not a repeat.    If all of that is true and 50 day average remains at our feet not above our heads I can believe in positive trending action for BTC in the remainder of this year.

I give him a little more credit then that premise, I want to be a dictator.  The price was 40bn and presumably forcing people to agree with him is not going to work out on any timescale, do I really believe he thinks otherwise; I do not.    I cant see why he has bothered especially but now he is stuck with the hot potato he ordered, I imagine he does try to improve some factors and sell it on which is a feasible plan.   Even with regrets he could make a profit or break even, compared to Tesla he is wasting his time the moneyarty premium the market gives TSLA is gigantic they think he is a king.  
   Heres the first positive take I've seen on his administration and ultimately could be a big deal if somehow it is empowering to the crowd in any fair way.  I dont know how its balanced but evidently people love 'Community notes' as a feature: https://youtu.be/2HIrJGjvuFY?t=108

The economy by itself is fine, the problem might be the burden from governments and those who are in power and able to do large amount of destructive acts like starting wars.   The various negatives from violent groups seizing power is nothing to do with economy, its the burden of people attacking others.   The destruction from government comes partly from government requiring so much debt and tax burden upon those actively working positively in an economy.  Government might arrange infrastructure spending and some suppose government is a positive but its only directing the power of those working in a capitalist economy usually, having the power to force others is not a positive by itself.   Thats the danger and growing threat I worry about, always we need a balance to these negatives in order that people who work are able to gain from doing so otherwise we might go backwards and people retreat from their honest endeavors.

We gambled when I was a kid, right from a young age but it was not really perhaps as serious as it might be today.  We gambled for like marbles and other things not really worth anything, it was no more serious then a game of football might be where the winner get the bag of sweets or whatever.   Now you have kids in general growing up with the power of technology at their fingertips which could be dangerous I suppose, something as innocuous as instragram can be a negative for distorting the self perception children have.  So I'm not sure its a gambling danger per say but the wider problem of being so interlinked to a global world, it introduces alot of dangers of everything immediately available and even adults must be careful so its a general danger.   I wouldnt give a smart phone to a child personally but its hard to do any different to what most do.

In a maths view perhaps with a lottery it could make sense to collect numbers.   On the basis of knowing which number combinations remain unused will increase the payout.   Like anything if your reward goes up for the same money risked, this is a better rate of return a superior yield.   Anytime you can do a bit of maths, deploy some statistics and probability to earn a few extra bucks its worth doing.
   Ideally a computer would manage all this, just going person to person is not feasible by itself but maths 'genius' have deployed such ideas in the past to a profit, unbelievable but true

I spent half a bitcoin on a second hand monitor back in the day, I was stuck on a old CRT and so it made sense for my eyesight at the time somehow   If nobody had used BTC back then we'd not be here now, thats all I can say to cover my missing Lambo
   I did roll all my spins recently, all gone for now.  We've come down a bit the reward went up a bit, most usual is the BTC price action wants to repeat its range back up again so no need to hold especially though I will look.   If we do not hold the daily lows of the last month or so then we're into a new era, a new phase most probably as it starts to negate the 2023 mostly positive move.   Majority of the time BTC is a roller-coaster, yes its all over the place but open your eyes and you end where you began full circle.

Professional gambling is specialist and imo most of us are not capable of being so controlled but anyone can keep a budget.   Mention professional winning in Las Vegas and you risk initiating day dream thinking in people, the path to any profit is more mundane and routine imo.
   Ideally a whole month should have a budget to stop any particular day, say when you have a fight in a relationship which is normal but upsetting; a budget stops one leading to many days of losses.   If you isolate each days budget, dont expect to profit on any particular day and if using all that days money only return back to gamble the next day when you have slept and maybe are calmer.    All of these measures will help to isolate bad gambling behaviour and irrational reactive losses, I never even enjoy this type of loss anyway so why would we do it to ourselves.

Like any addiction its possible for the stream of consciousness during a day, what motivates you to continue doing your job the difficult things in life; all that can be disrupted.   I would argue none of this occurs by gambling cause alone, underlying causes that push a person into a negative bias is what I would mostly blame.  Depression or grief from loss of a loved one is perfectly normal behaviour and thats all it takes to de-stabilize someone enough to develop some kind of addiction imo.  The worst addictions are physical like drinking but also uncontrolled gambling would be a large negative imo its important to keep a fixed budget weeks ahead of time for this reason, avoiding upset.  Ideally people are helped as much as possible and consoled by a professional where possible.

The reason for the electoral college being arranged in a particular way is to do with the original union of the states, with many states lacking a larger population but contributing a large land mass and productive capacity.   USA has world class resources and independence that not many countries can boast from oil to farm land its all important.   To alter any of that is not as simple as it appears as it would require to allow states to vote on the new terms, more upset is really justified considering its worked for so long now.
