its not gr8 at long term storage... but if we are looking to preserve some value for a short time. cash is king.
Not always... ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.stamp-collecting-world.com%2Fimages%2FGer_Mi_309_312.jpg&t=665&c=ImzffUXE92vAqw) right highly sought out rare unique items might be and excellent store of value. a bitcoin more like these stamps then it is gold. these stamps have a strictly limited supply. not so with gold. These stamps were from Germany in 1924. LOL. The are not rare or valuable at all. The point is they were going for 5000 to 500,000 marks, and then they had to cross that out and they were going for 2 million marks. I was refuting your claim that cash is king for the short term. That has not always been the case.

![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Yes, if there was any need to confirm that we got some maturity in the btc market well now it's confirmed. We had all the eyes of the financial world on us and the big fellas expected a big drop to come onboard without the etf but they got it wrong. As we usually say around here: GO BTC GO!

The assumption that a new paradigm of 'stability' has arrived in Bitcoin is often found to be false before very long.

It's jumping now at $1200 exactly. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) This should be the motto of bitcoin price watching: Losers focus on losers, Winners focus on winners.

Pre-dump breakout ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Wishful thinking mckk. I am sorry about the loss of your short. The fact of the matter is that maybe you can sell a little bit of BTC to take out some risk, but do not sell large portions or short, because the upside potential is much greater than the downside, and if you bet on downwards, then you run a considerable risk of either getting left behind or having to buy back at a higher price

Now they will act all smug and indignant, and never go away. <sigh> (wait, what am I saying, they're being paid to troll so they will never go away)You are correct Torque... It doesn't matter how wrong some of the paid shill trolls are. They are not going to go away, and they will take every possible opportunity to proclaim that they are correct, and I told you so, even if the facts do not really line up with any prognostication that they are making. Also, the fact of the matter is that frequently these paid shill trolls refuse to recognize that bitcoin is already a success and the success is not exactly price dependent - but sure there does seem to be quite a bit of validation in price, as well. We could stay floating in the $800 to $1400 arena for years and years, and bitcoin will still be a success, but likely may of us realize that level of stability is a less likely scenario and bitcoin is likely to be volatile to the upside greater than $1400. Who knows what is going to happen, exactly, with price, but the ongoing and current upwards price pressures seem quite considerable and quite broad.

Anyway I'm a bit negative because I see no real reason for bitcoin to rise so fast tbh. About your tip to not sell all btc at such important events as ETF, that's smart but when I play with leverage I cannot risk getting my position liquidated.
