Hey Fakhoury,

I started to watch the embedded video, and about 1 minute into it, coindesk requires registration and providing an e-mail address.  I did not want to do that, so I abandoned watching the video. 

Maybe I just was not enough in the mood to register my e-mail with them?

Did you register your e-mail with coindesk?  Or do you know of a trick to watch the video without registering with them?

1) Self-Custody is a right.  There is no such thing as "non-custodial" or "un-hosted."  2) ESG, KYC & AML are attack-vectors on Bitcoin to be avoided or minimized.  3) How much alt (shit)coin diversification is necessary? if you are into Bitcoin, then 0%......if you cannot control your gambling, then perhaps limit your alt(shit)coin exposure to less than 10% of your bitcoin size...Put BTC here: bc1q49wt0ddnj07wzzp6z7affw9ven7fztyhevqu9k

Yes I didn't want to register as well.
So I found the transcript of the talk.
Enjoy the read.

Thanks Denker....

That helps to be able to at least browse through some of the substantive points of the discussion panel.


It is interesting how, over time, more and more folks are coming into bitcoin, and there seems to be less and less disagreement concerning the storage of value regarding bitcoin and the likelihood that overtime bitcoin is going to appreciate in value considerably, especially in comparison to various fiat currencies, and also bitcoin's market cap needs to 100x or more from this point, in order to come even close to have a further level of utility that would apply to bigger financial institutions.

I'm extremely sorry to hear this, I wish I could help you, unless there is a way to help you, I will be there for you if I can without hestiation.

My advice is, pass over, and buy now and don't wait any dips, I think you know where we are heading, if there is a chance you can get backs the coins, go ahead.

Try to move in both lanes.

Hey brother,

I've just typed random name and e-mail and it worked well for me.

It's just a matter of time, JJG.

All of us will witness exponential growths.

YES.... One thing is whether a 10x, 100x or 1000x is likely to happen, another thing is how people talk about such possibilities and another thing is how both the technicals and the mass consciousness work together to allow for such speculations to become realities.

Even though, you frequently hear me writing conservatively (and even arguably skeptically) regarding these various future possibilities that have not yet happened, I have a very decent sized chunk of investment into BTC, so I am likely to profit considerably even from a 5x price appreciation....  A 5x appreciation would likely change my life for the better in some marginal ways, but yeah, a 10x or more price appreciation would considerably change my life..... yet I still consider those kinds of developments (if they were to occur) to be icing on the cake, rather than any kind of certain outcome.

Anyhow, the 3x appreciation from the lower $200s has been quite fulfilling for me, too... brought my BTC holdings from more than 50% in the red to more than 50% in the green... as I type..   Wink Wink

JJG, do you know that since the creation of Bitcoin till now, VC investments has reach $240 Billion and counting.

All this will only take time to see results, nothing more than time and trust Wink

I understand that there has been quite a lot of VC investment into BTC, and I agree that some of that investment is going to take some time to play out.... so I agree on that point.

Regarding your $240 billion number, I think that you have some bad sources there regarding the quantity.

I believe that I have seen some credible VC investment numbers, and they are approaching $2billion... but maybe I am a bit off in my memory, too?     But I don't think VC investment into BTC is anywhere approaching $240 billion... and I think even $20 billion would be a stretch, when I think that the more accurate number is somewhere around $2billion, at this time.
