And we had to stop doing this business. In addition, we did work as outsourcers, because in my country the low purchasing power. When I learned about crypto currency, everything changed for me. I'm currently engaged in trading and I'm very happy with it. The main thing is that there was volatility. When bitcoin will stand around 50,000 it will be very good, then I will most likely sell about 35% of bitcoins. But my business partner looks a lot further, he considers bitcoin as a pension savings.

I don't really understand why it would be a goal to sell 30% to 50% of your stack.. at least not all at once. Actually, if you sell on the way up, then it is likely that you won't need to sell BIG chunks - but I suppose everyone has his/her personalized approach and way of thinking of the matter. I kind of think about the matter as "overinvesting a bit" in order to NOT feel bad to continue to sell as the price goes up and you don't have to sell a lot in order to be profitable and to supplement your lifestyle with your ongoing bitcoin profits. Look at where we are at now? We are at about 25x higher than we were in the vast majority of 2015 - which was largely in the mid-$200s for most of the year. So accordingly, if anyone overinvested in 2015, then they are not going to feel bad to shed a few of those coins at 25x, are they? Of course, your numbers for the price of each of your coins vary, but if you continue to invest all the way along, then also, along the way, you can shed a few coins, here and there, too, right? especially if you have several years time line on each of your coins (in terms of when you are thinking you would be cashing them out along the way) (and likely up, no?)

No shortage of ANNS for those places on these boards. Only problem is 99.9% are scams. Good luck finding one that isn’t. DYOR...

But I pray that they don't down the road change the rules and corrupt this. In theory, by holding clients' bitcoin accounts for them directly, they can fractional reserve the bitcoin they hold, have re-hypothecation, etc. Even phantom shares of bitcoin. So hoping it doesn't go that way.

By the time btc reaches 100k there will be no need to sell it for fiat. Everybody will be accepting it.

By the time btc reaches 100k there will be no need to sell it for fiat. Everybody will be accepting it. You seem to be outlining two reasons why there would not need to be a need to sell any BIG chunks, such as when prices reach $100k ... so I thought that my point was that if you just maintain some kind of reasonable ratio of BTC versus fiat, then you could likely continue to maintain that same ratio whether prices go UP to $100k quickly or if they take longer than expected to get up to $100k. We might not be saying anything much different, and maybe if you have a specific thing that you want to buy at $100k BTC, such as a lambo or a house, then that's a fine consideration, too. By the way, about two months ago, I was considering a fairly expensive purchase, and BTC prices were floating around, and I said that i would wait until prices reached $12k, but then I just said "fuck it" I am not going to wait. So I made the purchase, since who knows when the price is going to reach $12k, and I already have the money available anyhow, so it is not really changing my BTC investment, but I suppose it could be money that would not be available if prices go below $3k. and I would not be able to buy as much BTC because I made "the purchase." If we feel that we are in critical accumulation phase of our BTC investment, then of course we are going to be more frugal with our consumption, because all of that does eat into our BTC stash possibilities, but if we have a feeling that we have accumulated a decent quantity of BTC, then it can be o.k. to continue to shave a bit off, here and there along the price path (and maybe just have dollars and BTC available so we don't feel like we have to sell additional BTC in order to make some purchases of nice things).

I think if he originally had $8k, his profit would be 2k But if he had only $6k, his profit would be 1k
True, If he only had 6k then he could not have made the second purchase. Since it says he made both purchases he must have had at least 7k to start. He could lend this money So he gained 1k from the 1st deal Then took -1k when he lent And then again +1k You suck! I'm not thinking about this one anymore! ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) Wait, maybe his grandma lent him another 1K? Shit I lied! ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I’ve got a load of XRP left at Bittrex, not overly concerned about it but be great if they went to say $100 each one day ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) It's always best to be first when dumping shitcoins. Magic 8 ball says: "Concentrate and ask again".
In all due seriousness, I really don't have a good read on this yet. I've not even finished my analysis as to which way I would like to see it go.
As for my initial preferences:
My first read is that I'd like to see it tend toward no block size cap (and therefore have max block size be an emergent property of the system, a la BU). I also think I like the idea of re-enabling opcodes that were in the initial release - at least as compared to enabling a new opcode. I don't see the need for CTOR either.
All the above would put me in the SV camp, rather than the ABC camp. Or perhaps BU (hash power vote on each feature), or C0bra (no changes). But as I said, more analysis is required.
I also hold out some hope for a kumbaya moment. However, cross-camp relations don't seem to be getting any better with time.
Given that Bitmain has a split commitment to BCH and BTC, I was fairly comfortable in the hashpower battle going forward with nChain/Ayre/&co. However, with Bitmain finally successful (from all reports) with a 7nm chip, this no longer seems a safe assumption.
I guess I'll need to finish my analysis, pick a side, and get involved with the internal advocacy...
Not sure about bitmain specifically but 7nm yields are shit across the industry, so don't expect them getting any massive returns on that front. Of course they are creating simple logic with minuscule footprint so the yields may be higher than industry average, It would be interesting to find out. After all, one of the narratives is that BCH is not supposed to be used for a store of value;
Whose narrative is that? I don't recall that position ever being advocated by anyone of note. Ability to be used as a medium of exchange (MoE) certainly does not preclude ability to be used as a store of value (SoV). Indeed, there is significant evidence that MoE is necessary for any commodity to become a SoV. And a reasonable theory that any commodity that loses its MoE will therefore lose its ability to be a SoV. Which bodes poorly for BTC, unless the LN grows quickly by several orders of magnitude. I don't know shit about BCH but it is a simple inheritance thing isn't it? Bitcoins original vision was not to be a store of value but a currency. BCH shills have been screaming since day one they will stick to that vision. So yeah there is that. don't get yourself caught in any circular logic trap here.

Never sell all of it because after the halvening in 2024 we’ll likely see, well who knows, 500k per coin? Either way it’s frustrating atm sitting on what most people would call a lot of money but myself, knowing I can’t spend it YET because it’s not enough to live on forever.
