Not to be upstaged by Bakkt, obviously. A day late and satoshi short?

I've not been active in this thread for the last couple weeks / few days, and I don't see that changing due to IRL stuff picking up speed, and corn activity being pretty boring during that time.
I just read something on Twitter along the lines of BTC is entering a "FOMO loop", and I just can't even even.
My gut says the bull broke out of the barn over the weekend, and shit is about to get real interesting.
I am likely entering lurk mode until we start approaching closer to $20k.
Love, hugs, and HODLs. No homo.

Boys a bit movie OT.....
But F*** i’m seriously looking forward to see The joker...
It would be great if a comic book movie could prove that deep character arc and story actually matter to the audience...like the great movies of old... (like Batman Begins)

Fuck you, alts Pretty remarkable that it's gaining, considering that CMC lists hundreds of new shitcoins per month with (supposed) million dollar market caps that continue to pull down BTC dominance number.

If everything around you is going up in price, as you hodl your [safe] fiat, that should be a huge red flag to you.
Ask a Venezuelan or Argentinian.

The most lucrative RE in the future will be Senior housing complexes and near retirement housing complexes.
The second most lucrative will be young professional apartments in major city hubs.
Because neither of these two groups will be able to afford houses in the future, and likely won't even want them.

I can't believe that idiot Narcissist let things go all the way to court just to be shown as a complete fraud. Oh wait... yeah I can.

REITs? They're like ETFs but for Rental properties, professional managed by a team. You don't do anything except collect dividends. The MER is usually a bit higher than index ETFs, but still below 1%.
Can be lucrative, but one has to be careful and do the proper research. The vast majority of REITs are insolvent, and just one downturn away from bankruptcy. A high dividend yield is usually the tell; the higher it is, the more likely the REIT is under bad financial stress.

Those wondering about the impact of BAKKT on the market, needs to realize something else.
It's not the fact that they are going live within days. It's completely the relative timing.
They could have gone live over a year ago. The tech was already in place and working behind closed doors.
But they didn't. They delayed it.
So ask yourself: Why go live now? Why not a year ago? Or why not kick the can for another year?
Is it too obvious to state that we were in a bear market last year, the impact of opening would have been minimal & the interest would have been lower? Yes, somewhat true. But look at what's happening globally right now. Global recession. Currencies are hyper inflating. Equities bubble. Bond market bubble. Asset bubbles. Negative interest rates in govt and corporate bonds. PMs are up bigly. The fact is that "they" had zero interest in a true hedge trade (aka physical Bitcoin), until right now. It suddenly became an overnight imperative, so it seems.

BAAKT will be exactly how the richy-rich whales, very discretely and very quietly, drain the float on every major exchange.
It may take some time.
But then after that, watch out.

Seems quite bullish on here today & also a general air of positivity on Twitter when you search ‘bitcoin’.
Could we be set to start moving upwards soon?
Soon TM

Yeah but...bbut...how much "fighting" are we talking about here? Is he going to place tariffs on crypto transactions too? Lol It's called tax. Or even worse he could ban it... In America it would not be strange to put some absurd sentence on it like the death penalty.... America is a crazy country.... With a crazy leader.... Be careful what you wish for.... Trump would call it: "a zero tolerance policy." hahahahahaha You mean like when Trump tweeted "Our great American companies are hearby ORDERED to IMMEDIATELY start looking for an alternative to China"... and all the tech company CEOS collectively laughed, shrugged, and went about business as usual? Lol

3. The way they truly get you is by taxing gains, but allowing only $3000 per year in losses. This way, you could be in a situation where you pay large gains one year, but are allowed only limited recourse (3K) when you have a large loss. I find this very unfair.
Yes, but any losses that exceed $3K you can roll over YoY.

2013, Max Keiser: "I'm going to launch MaxCoin, a much much better version of Bitcoin. It's going to be huge. It will likely eclipse Bitcoin in market cap. No it's not a shitcoin."

My bank continues to crack down on me. Just got a call that I can't withdraw my money from kraken to my bank account anymore.
As annoying as this is, it's also good news. If they didn't think bitcoin mattered they wouldn't bother. I'll just have to do all my business in person, maybe use the occasional atm.
Easy solution: stop using banks. Looks like that will have to happen. If I can start buying plane tickets with bitcoin then at this point all I need them for is to pay my cell phone bill. And my family can handle that from another account. Is there a Bitcoin-backed debit Visa card you can use for those type of expenses? Like the Shift card that Coinbase once had?
