She will keep that paper wallet until her 18th birthday, is what I think the plan is. 10 years from now. So BTC will be worth $5000 or $10k, or $20k, or some number between the moon and mars.

That poor lass has had her anonymity blown. According to more than a few posters here she's now on an NSA hit list. I'm willing to contribute to her digital erasure and bunker.

You also cannot by the entire company by their shares. E.g. if I had a GOOG share and I don't sell it, you can jump around as much as you want and you won't get it.

Sure you can, it happens all the time in buyouts and mergers.

If you don't want to sell, then there isn't much you can do to block a deal

For example, the Dell deal.

Dell stockholders will receive ... $13.88 per share in cash.

Whether you (as a minor shareholder) agreed with the buyout or not, your share got sold for cash.

This massive rally might be fueled by the impeachment talks about Trump in the US over the fake news/deep state attacks on him. The markets are down quite a bit.

Yep. Hapenned to me when Telefonica/Movistar adquired its filial Terra. Didn't want to sell, yet my shares got converted to a ridiculous small number of Telefonica shares.

I think you're overestimating the importance of that. Especially for BTC. I mean really, who gives a rats ass? Why would ANYONE buy more BTC because of some fumbling American president? So some markets are down, they'll be up again in a little while. No reason that would be caused by American politics. If instability or mismanagement in American politics would mean a rally in BTC we'd all be rich already.

Shitcoins are pumped every single day, XRP was barely worth anything until now. It popped into existence on the coin dominance board and it's not even decentralized, with creators holding billions of XRP and also making them. There's nothing to worry about. It is simply the new normal and market capitalization charts nowadays are NOT true at all unless you filter out all the bullshit.

Or the world needs digital gold and digital cash and the alt market is simply a reflection of our technical inability to provide both.

Its not that anyone cares that much directly (most are concerned about themselves lets be honest) especially traders outside the USA.  However the dollar is a reserve currency used as a proxy for global commerce.   If the figure head to a system that has 20 trillion of debt and commands many important trade routes is faltering it matters, it even matters to us in bitcoin.    Bitcoin does bare a relation to dollar and China buying bitcoin also relates to their desire to buy dollars, partly as a proxy via bitcoin.

Obviously there any many different factors and nothing is absolute but typically the market flicks from bullish uptrends to negative sentiment and withdrawal of liquidity from various markets.   Hot money often moves fast on news not just actual changes but the perception of a possible event occurring.   Trump is not going anywhere I think but still we have risen a great deal since he was elected and its not entirely coincidental that this is true of stocks and bitcoin and many things
