Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

Immortality, Cryogenics and UBI: How The Crypto Rich Influence Science

The rise of cryptocurrency is changing the philanthropic world by causing the redistribution of wealth from old money to visionary innovators and early tech adopters. The new crypto rich invest their donations by supporting scientific research in groundbreaking fields that may one day enable humanity to cure aging, reverse death and completely change the relationship between work and income.

This is what I'm seeing on BTC dominance graph:



Seriously, IF this breaks down, go get some alts to further increase your BTC stash.

Hahahahahaha

It would not be very smart to be trading based on that kind of information or even deciding whether or not to play around with shitcoins based on that kind of information.

Hmmmm...mmmm....mmmmm... Not even with 10% of your BTC stash?

Certainly not if the current trend is due to the death of alts, which is a distinct possibility.

Yeah but...bbut...how much "fighting" are we talking about here? Is he going to place tariffs on crypto transactions too? Lol

It's called tax. Or even worse he could ban it...  In America it would not be strange to put some absurd sentence on it like the death penalty.... America is a crazy country.... With a crazy leader....

Be careful what you wish for....

I'm kicking this one around but man Alcor and others have a bit of a professionality problem to overcome.

As I said, if I'm frozen like this I want "This person has the passphrase for 20 bitcoins memorized. Revive me, You get half" etched on my container. If the world comes where that is an incentive to revive me then I *really* want to live there.

Dunno, they look pretty alike to me. It is almost like, they forked and elected their own version of Trump. Trump Cash.

Boris is the real vision of Trump. He'll build that wall between EU and UK.

They are both K-selected. Trump more than his english counterpart. Incidentally so is Putin, Theodore Roosevelt, Eisenhower and, to some degree, Hitler. This is why they get along, and why the left all hate them.

It’s a good read actually.
That’s why I have included that long time ago in my post:

5 Resources to teach Average Joe about Bitcoin
I might give it a little bit more emphasis using your Bitcoin words.

Well, i kind of suspected that the concept of multi- was ambiguous, and that is why I was a bit more conservative in my own accepted definition, which requires three....  Tongue Tongue Tongue


Right now, with current BTC prices floating around $10k, you would be floating around BTC millionnaire status with 100 BTC.  However, I would argue that you need  300 BTC, at this particular price range to proclaim multi-milliionnaire status (in terms of your BTC holdings), without engaging in exaggeration.

I understand that guys are going to differ in this matter, and I personally give more credibility to more conservative assertions.

More like 400 with these tariffs. Cheesy

I'm thinking Multi must be in whole units as the general population when the term was coined were not fluent in fractions of whole numbers. Another thing I have noted is that any language that needs(critically) a term with a definition of or similar to "ambiguous" is a very poor form of communication. Intentional obfuscation is a twisted form of security and one lawyers need a even more obscure language to inflict upon us. Wink

I don't really mind loose or ambiguous language.

Surely, sometimes a bit of loose and ambiguous is necessary for  a variety of reasons including allowing people to express their complex and frequently even irrational tendencies.   

Frequently, guys will attempt to be more rational than gals, but even in those cases, guys have their own various ways of acting and even communicating irrationally, including exaggeration.

Sometimes the topic might come up about whether someone is self made or the level of their wealth, and if they want to assert that they are better than a mere millionnaire, they might want to be somewhat conservative in their expression, especially if a lot of their wealth is held in a highly volatile asset such as bitcoin.

I don't really mind so much about someone proclaiming that a guy with 100BTC could not be a millionnaire because his wealth is only on paper, or asking questions regarding how he is going to get his dollars out  of the asset in case he really needed to get them out, but I do consider the potential fluctuation to be a potentially BIGGER problem, so if a guy has 200 BTC then he has more ability to clearly and unambiguously assert that he is a bitcoin millionaire (in terms of the dollar value, including any possible short term price fluctuation and also including any tariffs or taxes that he might have to pay, as you suggested Hueristic). 

So, yeah, I am not sure if we have to really be thinking in terms of solid units, either because otherwise we might be getting back to the unit perception fallacies of those who think that they have to own a whole bitcoin or that bitcoins are too expensive as compared with ripple or some other crap coin because of the unit price.   But, I also don't mind having a certain amount of cushion in any claim to "multi" millionnaire status, so whether the minimum threshold is met by having an amount over 2 million or 3 million or if you just like to make sure that you are the owner of the level of the wealth that you claim free and clear, you might want to wait until you have 4 million in actual bitcoin value (in terms of dollar value) and even a value that has corrected up and down a few times before you start describing yourself as a multi millionnaire in terms of the dollar value of your bitcoin holdings rather than a mere millionaire.
