The expression “piss poor” comes from those who sold their urine to tanners...

Piss was also used as a source for salt peter for gunpowder.

There's a cliffhanger scene in Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy.  A gang of bad white dudes, out of gunpowder, is trapped on a mountaintop and being attacked by Indians.
The bad white dudes need to make gunpowder.  They piss and wait for the piss to dry in order to have saltpeter for the gunpowder.  The piss dries in time to make the gunpowder just as the indians are about to overrun the white dudes' position.
Then the white dudes blow away the injuns.

This is perfectly fine.

Trouble with Bitcoin is it's far more disruptive than any of us realised.
Many of us are still stuck with fiat-based visions of the future.
But money is real now, at long last.
You can't go pouring huge gobs of fake money into futuristic projects any more.
You will lose your chance to buy more bitcoin and thereby to have any power or influence.
An OG with 50k coins will have more power than most countries do now.
~150 of them will have half the world's wealth.
By far the most people will not have any money at all.
Bitcoin will bring about a new feudal technocracy.
But first, complete chaos.

Spooooky, what ever will we do with having to have real money!

Eth fucking stayed at .026 instead of the .03 where it was at for days. It still needs to move itself up a bit more.

Diversification is about picking the best of each market segment and buying a little of each.  It is not about chasing penny stocks.

Portfolio performance is only gained with a range of stocks from each sector. The lower caps will always be more volatile and some will outperform the dominant stock.

A company with a lower cap stock whose products do not have a Unique Selling Proposition are doomed to failure.

What's the USP of your candidate shitcoin?

[jbreher]

Facebook it dominant but not a monopoly and certainly not necessarily the future. Apple has only around 16% share of the smartphone market, down from 100% at the iPhone's launch. Netflix has less customers than Amazon Prime depending on how you view the statistics and its dominance is nowhere near to inhibiting new entrants. So those companies competitors are doing quite well actually.

Bitcoin dominance hit a minimum during the last massive price spike (see below), yet its marketcap/$USD price was at a maximum. That's no accident because as money is made in alts, people profit-take into bitcoin. It's the same structure for any monetary asset market and is in fact the very definition of a "reserve asset". There were of course other factors at play such as hedging the contentious hard forks that were going on, the blocksize war and general ideological differences in priority. But such needs to hedge will always exist - periodic storms in markets are a permanent feature of economics.

How does the market respond to such conflicts ? It caters for all through diversification - same as with any commercial sector. 20 years from now, the idea that there was only ever going to be 1 blockchain asset will seem comical, a bit like Thomas Watson's statement of "I think there is a market for maybe five computers".

Non-bitcoin digital asset market share moves in sawtooth waves just like bitcoin's own fiat market. It usually declines to just below the last peak marketshare during which time much of that capital flows into bitcoin and consolidates it. Then fuelling starts again and we move through a new cycle.

Again, nothing you have stated above^^^ lends any support to your assertion belowVVV.

There are very few natural monopolies in the world and monetary assets - digital or otherwise - are definitely not one of them. That is something so-called bitcoin maximalists should be thankful for and not moaning about because without it you'd have stagnation and ultimately death of the entire sector, including bitcoin.
