Holding BTC on a ‘1’ address is never wrong. ‘3’ is generally advised because it’s the most flexible. bc1 is the most advanced but not widely supported by exchanges.
1 = just old. there is no need for it. it costs more. it takes up more space. 3 = legacy compatible, wrapped segwit, will work everywhere. bc1q = all exchanges will accept a deposit FROM this address, it's withdrawing TO one that may be an issue. Most modern exchanges already support sending or withdrawing to a native segwit address. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Bech32_adoption#ExchangesBitstamp fully supports it. Coinbase send only. Gemini fully supports it. Binance supports it. Purse fully supports it. The General Bytes ATMs fully support it. Shakepay, Newton, Bylls, Bitcoin Bull all support it. All hardware wallets support it. Almost all block explorers can view it. As long as it's your wallet, it's best to keep your coins in bc1q addresses because *you* pay less to send it, does not matter where you send it to. Finally, if you want to play with Lightning, you'll need to use segwit anyway. The "Loaded" guy that had 40k moved it from a legacy address to a native segwit one, where it currently sits now. Loaded still holding on to his stash? Got a link to address? BTC40k is worth over $2B miss that guy, remember him smacking Risto around when he got out of hand |

BlackRock manages $8.7 Trillion, that's one company having 9market caps of BTC, they can single handedly add another 0 to the current price |

A simple question about trading on exchanges: is it safe to assume that over 90% of trading we see happening on exchanges is made by bots? Meaning professional traders and entities run bots and automate trades while 10% of regulars trade actually against them.
Is that so?
Depends on exchange, overall now it's probably over 90%, some exchanges just do wash trades with themselves all day to pretend that they have volume |

It won't be long till $50k now and not many coins left above that

so this what "it's happening" looks like |

Stablecoins means we can convert directly into a stablecoin via a dex from our BTC and pay for stuff wherever they accept Mastercard. At some point seamlessly via LN. This is gentlement. Mastercard was one of the first ones to jump in bed with facebook and their libra/diem Using our deep experience in payments technologies, we look forward to continuing these partnerships with governments and helping them explore the best ways to develop these new currencies. Added to this work, Mastercard is actively engaging with several major central banks around the world, as they review plans to launch new digital currencies, dubbed CBDCs, to offer their citizens a new way to pay. With 89 blockchain patents granted globally with an additional 285 blockchain applications pending worldwide, we already have one of the payments industry’s biggest blockchain patent portfolios to draw from to make these projects successful. They're trying to pass shit sandwich CBCDs to public in the "crypto" wrapper. Their next step should be to hire Faketoshi as their spokesperson. It's a dinosaur trying to fight a meteor, the only good thing i see here is exposing masses to "crypto" concept after which people could jump on to the real thing Edit: we all know how great that Venezuelan CBDC petro turned out right ... right  |

Have you gotten over your BIG blocker afflictions and your disgruntledment towards the real deal king daddy bitcoin that has segwit and relatively (speaking) eee widddy bitty blocks?
Nope. I still say that increasing on-chain transaction capacity is the way forward. It has proven that BCH and Amaury Sachet were not able to cut it (and let's not even bother with BSV). However, I continued to honor my position of never counting BTC out so other than a little spendy-spend to realize some profits, my holdings are mostly intact. All that's really been lost is that segwit is now a permanent canker on the protocol. I'm considering writing a Medium article about it. Probably if you apologize - for burning bridges, that might be a step in the right direction.. Maybe you can do what Adam was not willing to do and admit that your claims of censorship were overblown and in the end not correct? that might help.  you will thank me, later.  They were undeniably correct and I stand by what I said completely. I don't know what bridges I am supposed to have burned, I'm just a dweeb posting on an online forum. Ahh good to know that with all that drama yet you stayed true to BTC. But a lot of people actually followed through and got burned hard after they exchanged their BTC for the ever diminishing alt bag. (Not to mention being on the same side with Faketoshi for some time) Regardless, something something about bygones being bygones |

yep... yesterday 6k on coins are flown out of f2pool  It's better if they sell their stash now |

Apple would be the pinnacle of corporate investments. After apple, next stop would be governments making BTC part of their reserves. |

When I have bitcoin, why would I buy Tesla?
Cause bitcoin can't teleport you to a store/restaurant/movies etc... (yet) |

Just a sobering reminder, lest we get too over-exuberant... (I was actually hoping to get one of the Wile-e-coyote ones but they have sadly all expired). Will her Asian phase do? Congratulations on being brainwashed working drones for peanuts Chinese!
On a serious note, my respect goes to young students fighting the goverment. Keep protesting for rights.

Nice to see $50k on the radar

Decided I'm not making a principled sell @ $50k USD/BTC. Going to wait until we actually decide to start building on the land, at which point, BTC should be way higher than $50k USD/BTC. In theory, anyway. Same here, cancelling the $50k sell orders, moving over to ~$75k. Sorry guys, you're late! You didn't try hard enough to grab my coins! I am moving it since 30k € as well lol. New target is selling 10% @50k € but who knows... What y´all think where the big guys like Michael and Elon store their coins? Ever since I moved my coins from paper wallet to Ledger to claim the forks, I am terrified each time I open ledger live and pray my coins still there. I dont like digital storages. And I can not trust any paper wallet creating method anymore. EDIT: I am that paranoid that I called my parents to burn the seeds I left in their home (I have backups with me) after Ledger leaked all my personal data and the address I ordered the Ledger to. So if thiefs knock the door, they will find no seeds lol. But but exchanges need more coins, Elon and Jeff are hungry and they have huge appetites |

Only BTC900 are mined daily, he's showing f2pool's mining market share is 16.4%, that puts them at BTC147.6/day. Moving BTC40k in one day means they're moving 271days worth of their mining. Now explain the maths on how it could go on forever? Not even going into how moving coins != selling Easy. They have (according to their co-founder as named in the video) 1mil BTC reserve. They can use this to dump at higher prices (on pumps, sells set at certain level) and buy back at lower prices through short futures/options (resulting in more bitcoin in their wallets). Rinse and repeat. As explained in the video (and the preceding one on that topic from the same content creator). Again, at BTC147.6/day they'd need 18.5 years to accumulate BTC1MM  without selling a single satoshi to fund their operations. Even if we pretend that they have a time machine, eyeballing the charts looks like they already transferred out about BTC90k so even then they could only do it 11more times before they're bone dry and can only supply BTC147/day for next 3 yrs after which it'll become BTC73.5/day then in 4 yrs after that just BTC36.75/day ... it's maths Dude talked about reserves, not supply. As supply was higher before past halvenings, and you consider f2pool could have pulled off some accumulation games in the past as well, then they would really have be able to hold 1M BTC in reserve. At the current price, a little part of such reserve would pay their current mining operations easily, and as we know f2pool was amongst the top expanding mining companies. So they must have had a financial edge, or they would have went broke already, from my understanding. Edited my post. They're a pool so they also pay out their miners, as far as possibility they could have BTC1MM BTC910k just as i could be stricken be the lightning right now, the chances of that happening are minimal though. |

Huuuge pump out of nowhere and then super low volume again. Lets see when this drops sub 40k again... I think within 12 hours bears will dump it down again.
50k this week... by Friday and thats being bearish Fingers crossed. But with such incredible news we should be at 100k already lol. Some news and data on f2pool dumping and how the market manipulation could go on forever: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BCGruDFPyUOnly BTC900 are mined daily, he's showing f2pool's mining market share is 16.4%, that puts them at BTC147.6/day.

But i have hard time believing that they own 6% of all BTC in existance, in either case i might have a buyer for them (AAPL) |
