I am 28 with 12 Experience-Points  ... I couldn't convince my father in bitcoin. He text me the Price if it's goes up, but he don't want no for himself. But I bought for him anyway, after I bought him a car and he gave me a little money to not have a bad feeling, that I bought him a car - march 2018 the btc was falling. So someday, I gave him a huge amount of money, and he can spend it I also couldn't convince my brother. At least not yet! I stopped trying to convince people. Now others are trying to convince me to show them how. Yeah, right. It was fun for them when I was trying to explain Bitcoin to them and they were laughing at my face. "Google it" is my reply now. I can't be bothered. I only did this because it is my family. I don't care about other in this case Yes, I can understand that. One of my family members listened to me. He is 4x of what he invested. If he had not played with shitcoins he would now be 12x. I calculated it for him, but he now insists altcoins are his way to the moon. Good luck to him. BTW, another ATH: $51,316.71 $51,459.29 |

hard to be productive when btc is on ATH rodeorocket launch.
But you are productive! You own Bitcoin, don't you? |

$50k was a major psychological boundary. As was $10k before it. And maybe $20k. The next one (in my head at least) is $100k. $60k, $70k, ... etc., should be easy to pwn. For the electronics engineers among us, look at the H/V scale of an oscilloscope: x10, x20, x50 x100, etc. Things are looking up. Literally! ...and flowers are green. |

A wonderful morning to all WOers!
Mine is "white" too, due to snow. Working from home due to COVID-19. Freshly made coffee, nice and warm in my home office/lab, observing nearly $51k. Isn't life great?
Once more, Warren Buffett's words were confirmed. "Earning money while you sleep" and all...
Guys, don't you fucking sell a single sat. Still at t-minus, don't get out of that rocket! Don't sell your seat to the crowd outside for cheap.
Onwards & Upwards!
HoDL.

If anything I'm the screw up in the family so wouldn't be worried about getting fiat back. My sister makes more money than me, however she works in Paris and wants a flat not too far, so that's around 10000€ for 1 square meter of living space...
My parents were both public servants so yeah, pretty socialists !
I wouldn't give a single sat to anyone who doesn't deserve it, especially family members. I'd say "get on your bike and work for it." No free lunch for anyone. |

Fuck. Seeing $4x,xxx is so boring...
I want at least a 5 in front of a 5-digit number.
Or a 6-digit number (whatever the front digit).

Interesting. I was updating Quicken and tried a few future values for bitcoin to check my net worth. Apparently you can not have a security worth more than 99 million dollars a share without Quicken blowing up.
They had better fix this bug. Soon.
Maybe use mBTC? Or I haven't understood what you meant... entering:
2500 parts of security named "BTC" Price per part: 50k result:
null reference exception XDforget it ... I don't know whats meant... one share 99 Million? Oh I see. I thought he wanted to enter 1 BTC = $100,000,000 and it wouldn't take it... |

Although we are already firmly above 40k € here in Euro-land...
...crossing and staying above $50k would make my day.
Next stop: 50k € (almost $60k)...

I like this immediate sell and subsequent rebound action. It means the attack is strong and upward pressure high.
$50k crossing again in a few minutes?

$50k pwned!
Congrats 20+ BTC HoDLers... You are now millonaires!

Still has not exceeded $50k...
Only touched it...

This is very interesting. Someone (prolly El Dude?) posted here some news about some prominent hodler and bitcoin believer selling at $48-49k. What is happening now? Old boys losing faith? Of course we risk a lot. I haven't sold anything since 2011. In case the price goes down now, I am screwed: I'm sentenced to another 4 years (at least) without Lambos, hookers & blow.  Still I don't consider selling. Why? The cycle is not yet over. We barely touched all the previous blowoff tops and went down immediately which is not something we can witness at $50k mark. So we're probably waiting for a violent multi $10k pump followed by immediate heavy dump? I dunno but I have a gut feeling we (royal we of course) shouldn't sell now.  OK. I'm going to say it, and many may disagree with me. Despite all the fiat hate everyone here in WO may be vehemently expressing, I believe that many hardcore HoDLers are actually fiat supporters deep down. They won't openly say it, because they'll get a barrage of posts condemning them, but their actions show it clearly. Comments like "when to sell?", "I'll sell XX% of my stash", "I'm liquidating for my retirement". For some of them, Bitcoin has always been just a means to increase their fiat stash. They don't give a rat's ass about the tech, principles and ideology behind Bitcoin, as long as their wallets end up fat and full of fiat. That is their only goal. Now, I'm not saying that the above mentality is unjustifiable. There's a reason for it. We were all born into a fiat monetary system, and it is extremely difficult, if not impossible, to completely cleanse our minds from decades of indoctrination. We (still) live in a fiat world. Lambos (and now Teslas) may be Bitcoin-friendly, but not blow, and certainly not hookers, so there's a problem there... Personally, I see fiat as a transient state of wealth, where it is immediately spent to buy the things I want, such as a house, land, equipment, services, etc. I would not liquidate 20 BTC to get $1M just to keep in a bank or fund "for the future". I'd rather keep it in BTC and slowly use (convert into fiat only if such conversion is necessary, and only for the amount required), in order to immediately obtain what I need. I hope there will be a time when I can directly pay for all goods and services with Bitcoin. I'll close with my usual rainbow footers: Sell only when you must. Buy when you can. Always aim to HoDL. |

it sometimes feels like going into a casino, put lots of money on "red" at the roulette table, winning it, but then decide to leave it all on red for another round... and another round... and another round - a perpetual high risk/high reward gamble.
Exactly my thoughts... one day I realized that sell/not sell decisions are like choosing red/black on high stakes roulette spin... it's weird. Never wanted to play high-risk casino games, but life finds a way, haha... I don't find it very stressful tho, since I'm not 100% in bitcon, plus the odds are very assymmetrical. When "red' doubles your money every year, it's easy to keep playing. I can understand what you're saying, and 600watt's comments, but I must disagree with you both, on the "casino" part. To me, "betting" on Bitcoin does not feel like a casino bet. Not at all. It feels more certain than many other decisions that are way more certain than a casino bet. Maybe it takes years of HoDL hardening to feel that way, but I do. Rest assured, if HoDLing Bitcoin is equivalent to betting on RED, then the roulette wheel looks like the one below. The highest risk in this game is NOT to play. |
