#Bitcoin miners are continuing to HODL.
(or maybe even buying on top of the mining because of putting bitcoin in their treasury)

EDIT: Saylor's view on the subject:

Triple Maxi #Bitcoin Mining Strategy =
(1) Keep all the BTC you mine
(2) Issue Equity/Debt to purchase capital equipment & pay operating expenses
(3) Issue additional Equity/Debt to acquire more BTC if/when accretive.  #HODL

Active Supply charts provide insight into the proportion of $BTC supply older than 1yr.

'Peak HODL' is reached where the volume of 1yr+ supply hits a maximum, often near last cycles ATH.

After this, old coins are typically spent in bull markets as HODLers take profits.

I think today ($235) the below major event is far from priced in yet. In <14 months tail emission kicks in, the last variable block reward is mined (currently ~1.09 XMR per two minute block and dropping). At that future date in just eight years time a whopping 18.4 million XMR are mined. A then constant tail emission of 0.6 XMR per block means ~0.85% inflation in the first year (157,680 XMR), and that percentage is declining each following year. The only way still being able to get a decent number of monero is increasing your bid price, there a very few new moneros coming into existence from miners.

I will check in again in a year's time. But in the meanwhile, grab some while they are still cheap.


Quote
Monero block rewards will never drop to zero. Block rewards will gradually drop until tail emission commences at the end of May 2022. At this point, rewards will be fixed at 0.6 XMR per block.

Holy shit!
Facebook did not take on MySpace by saying there needs to be a public social media.

Offer something better than Google. Stop whining and just do it better. Don't ask the government to help you.

I don't use Google for their search engine anymore. Try duck.

duckduckgo still uses Google's search results. They just don't use it to spy on you.

I've tried other search sites, it's true that they're missing a lot. I even considered setting up my own crawler to crawl sites I'm interested in as I figure eventually Google will start filtering out sites I'm interested in.


Fortunately that is not true:

Quote
DuckDuckGo gets its results from over four hundred sources. These include hundreds of vertical sources delivering niche Instant Answers, DuckDuckBot (our crawler) and crowd-sourced sites (like Wikipedia, stored in our answer indexes). We also of course have more traditional links in the search results, which we also source from multiple partners, though most commonly from Bing (and none from Google).
https://help.duckduckgo.com/results/sources/


Just use duckduckgo first. And set the language slider to your country to get more local results. If you feel the search results are not sufficient, type !sp after your search words to search on startpage.com (which does use anonymized google results) instead (called a 'bang', there are currently 13,564 of them) or !google when really needed.

Examples:
https://duckduckgo.com/?q=bitcoin
https://duckduckgo.com/?q=bitcoin+!sp
https://duckduckgo.com/?q=bitcoin+!google

Anyone really believes that bitcoin gives any shits about what month we happen to be in or might be in or going to be in?  believe what you like, including about whether those shadows on the wall represent something real or may it not be better to step outside?


Bitcoin the network obviously doesn't care. However bitcoin as a token does, because it is being traded by humans (and bots configured by humans). Traders all day look for patterns, try and find something to hold on to predicting the future. This data might be one of those, and when it repeated itself over the last few years, in a traders mind it might just do the same this time again. It becomes a self fulfilling prophecy until it doesn't (a few whales decide differently).

Bank of America published the first chart back in 2018 claiming "bubble has popped". Today, we fixed the data for them:

[...] once I am back home and have another $1000 BTC loaded in.

Thanks Mr cAPSLOCK and BobLawblaw.


You can, and will, thank them and yourself later. Might take a few years to decades though, the hardest part is to do nothing. Be patient.

For reference: bitcoin currently @54k USD, so roughly purchasing 0.0185 BTC.

1 BTC = 1 BTC

or is it

Quote
1 BTC == 1 BTC
?

technically the first statement is not a boolean.

but the second statement is TRUE .  Grin

..but if you comparejavascript:void(0); strings you have to use quotes Smiley

Quote
"1 BTC" == "1 BTC"

Put this way,

"1 BTC" = "1 BTC"

would just raise an error, right?



Well I guess a variable of "1 BTC" could recursively store itself and then lead to an "OutOfMemory" situation. Smiley

hmm, i doubt so. It's an (anonymous) string literal, which should be read-only (const).
But i got the joke and i like it Cheesy Cheesy
Are there "named variables" in this manner in any language you are aware of?
There are quite some freaky languages out there, like the famous INTERCAL


here you go.

Code:
fn main() {
    let a = "1 BTC";
    let b = "1 BTC";
   
    println!("1 BTC = 1 BTC -> {}", a = b);
    println!("1 BTC == 1 BTC -> {}", a == b);
}

1 BTC = 1 BTC -> 1 BTC
1 BTC == 1 BTC -> true



I am sorry to spoil the fun, but the only right answer is 1 BTC != 1 BTC. Few understand this.
