Also BTC requires a healthy alt market to grow more.

So the alt market's fleeting pump and dump coins with newer or different proprietary mining systems offer a window into Bitcoin for the outside world.  However, we've already had the Cambrian explosion of altcoins, and they all pretty much centralize too, and the general public is not really interested in them anymore.

realr0ach wishes bitcoin "went away". Others on here wish it had a monopoly. Both characterisations seem a bit like wishing for the grass not be green.

The $238 Bn crypto marketcap is diverse and active. Live with it. Bitcoin trades against alts because it needs something to trade against that's in its class. At times it will dominate and at other times it won't. We've just passed the point of apparent BTC maximum dominance where the cycle reverses.

That's just how diverse market cycles work and if they didn't exist they'd be created. (By "markets" )

Besides Boom/Bust or Chump/Champ when they stick me in the Nursing Home someday, I'll have great stories to tell. The currency of Nursing Homes is 'stories' and whatever happens BTC/Crypto has been a doozy!

I 'member visiting nana at the nursing home, how they buzzed us in, and ran the magnetic sensors over us every visit. They were surprisingly strict about hugs and time limits too, I guess she liked the discipline, very old school that way, they don't make 'em like her anymore. She liked to tell us about the best recipes for homemade toilet wine, that takes me back, thanksgivings were always so much fun. She was more into cigarettes for currency though.

Toknormal, your post is utterly nonsensical pretending the "BTC dominance" metric is somehow a tradable variable like the gold to silver ratio.  It's a completely meaningless metric because you can have coins with a supposed billion dollar market cap propped up by only a $1 buy side.  There can be $10 billion market cap JayJuanGee coins that he owns all of them with no buyers whatsoever, and they're everywhere.  

Since Bitcoin is not a real commodity or resource, Bitcoin itself can turn into this at any second with lots of 'hodlers' but absolutely nobody interested in giving up their labor or resources for any imaginary, valueless timestamps.  So, no, BTC dominance is not a relevant or tradable metric for anything.

Not against anyone in particular here...

The chart is a perfect example of you people, seeing as how in the Bitcoin developer channels, there's virtually nobody who believes Bitcoin is too big to fail and when some big price implosion happens, you even see people question if sha256d was broken or something.  So everyone knows it's all built on a shaky ground of bullshit that can implode or be blackswaned to nothing at any second.  

Yes, sha256d is supposedly 'secure' today, but it won't be sometime tomorrow, and if it's required to have a 24/7 on-call Best Buy tech support team to constantly micromanage this nonsense and constantly alter even the bedrock foundations of which it's built on, it's obviously a Keynesian bullshit scam, unlike physical metals.  Metals do not require Best Buy Geek Squad to constantly tamper with them in an attempt to prevent them from imploding.

With "free" energy you can strip 3 protons out of lead and the result will be gold. A fusion reactor is much more feasible than quantum computing.
And there's no geologist geek squad able to fix it

Well nothing has changed...posters are insane  
See you at Bitcoin 20k some sunny day  

[toknormal]

Toknormal, your post is utterly nonsensical

Read it again. It's sensical.

Why do you think Bitcoin didn't fall to the worst predicted lows this time around ? Because the alt market had grown large enough for their to be considerable volume in cross-crypto trading and capital flowed from alts to BTC which mitigated the capital flow from BTC to $USD.

Conversely, alts will rally to more significant gains than bitcoin in the bull market.

So they trade against it and have a dampening effect on it that cushions its volatility against the $USD.

They are the "lungs" of bitcoin.

 Thank you V8 and thank you javi!
I think my wife already thought about the big green candle on my cake because I found this in the mail box today.



 Time for my before-work-MicG-patented HODL nap.

Yea, because building a giant tokamak for billions of dollars and it's billions of dollars of operational costs cost nothing at all.  Positive energy output fusion can be a resounding net negative in this regard, but even this has not happend yet unless the navy, seemingly hoax patents are real.  Even then, it takes a lot more energy to 'create' matter than to tip a domino to release energy from a metastable state.  For physical metals to be redundant, you would need not only positive energy output, but literal free energy with virtually no overhead to the point where it would be a post-scarcity civilization.

Trollgoossens, you ready for $500 silver $0 Bitcoin?  If you don't own any, looks like the opportunity to get some is about to close.  Even if you assume 99% of the entire planet is too stupid or broke to buy silver, that leaves only about 30 oz each for the other 1%.

[toknormal]

Trollgoossens, you ready for $500 silver $0 Bitcoin?

Dream on.

Silver has a bit of a problem travelling through wires. You can't hold it unless its "under your bed". Same with gold. So that puts a glass ceiling on PM valuations from now on because Bitcoin you *can* hold and it can travel through wires.

No contest.

Just like it's not possible to send ANYTHING of value over a wire from a house, to a car, to land, to a turkey sandwich.  Not being able to be sent over a wire is basically a requirement of something having value.

Speaking of Her Majesty;  everybody is assuming that Hillary had Epstein killed...I can think of another powerful matriarch with motive and means.

Nursing homes? Ugh.

Hopefully by the time I'm ready to need help Bitcoin will be worth enough for me to afford to hire and fire my own caregivers.

I have no intention of being institutionalized.

Cigarettes as currency? Sounds like jail.

[realr0ach]

everybody is assuming that Hillary had Epstein killed

There's a lot of people with motive to get rid of Epstein.  The deepkike state was attempting to fabricate some type of charges against Trump related to Epstein, so even Trump had motive to off him just to avoid another Russiagate hoax.  And since Epstein was a Mossad agent whose cover was completely blown, not even the kikes cared if he was killed.  His existence was a danger to virtually all crooked powerful people from the Jews pulling the strings, to the shabbos goy puppets serving them (assuming he's currently not alive in Saudi Arabia).

So to HODL, you have to have a 'specific' outlook and or means to HODL, so all this price variation and supposed 'beanie baby' money by some, does not drive you too crazy!

Exactly, and you should be able to afford to HODL. Otherwise, you'll just keep cashing out to zero to cover your running costs or emergencies. Fixing a house, buying a new car, sending kids to college etc could eventually drain your stash.

If Andrew had already confessed to her, 'Er mums, I like to kiddie fiddle with this gang of Yanks and other undesirables in my spare time', she would have rung the police herself. Guaranfuckingtee it. She is as plain as day that woman. Nobody likes the boy, including his poor mother.

Well you never really did understand the difference between electronic "money" and electronic assets, so I can appreciate that that delusion might persist in your view of things.
