Still nice, but paper BTC derivative != real BTC Doesn't help utility until they start accepting BTC deposits which i foresee to be their next step. They created their paper btc walled garden, and before anyone can sell their btc notes they must first buy them, this is squeezing the supply so next logical step is to let people deposit & convert their real BTC for PayPal BTC derivative sort of like GBTC fund

My position on this has been simple from the beginning. Bitcoin does not care who owns it. It does not care how people do business with it. It does not care if your use is legal, or regulated, or not. It does not care if you are an African merchant, or a commercial bank, or a teenage girl, or the worlds largest payment processor. Any of these can use it to whatever extent they choose. It does care (so to speak) about people who try to do a rope-a-dope and route around it's consensus. The first really BIG rush on a fractional reserve could put the company foolish enough to play that game in the ground over night. I have never thought PayPal represents the ethos of OUR bitcoin community, and BitCoin threatens PayPal for sure. So it is in PP's best interest to find exactly the way that they can make the most money out of providing services around Bitcoin as well as using it for their own settlement purposes. Censorship resistance means exactly that for everyone.

So it is in PP's best interest to find exactly the way that they can make the most money out of providing services around Bitcoin as well as using it for their own settlement purposes. Censorship resistance means exactly that for everyone. Idealistically i'd prefer everyone to be their own bank, but realistically i realize that it's not attainable nor really warranted. With great power comes great responsibility so to speak, and there are a lot of people who're not ready nor want that kind of responsibility. We should educate the population of their options and constantly improve UX but my gramma shouldn't choose between not having BTC at all, and having to punch out her 24 seed words from her coldcard on a stainless steel plates inside a faraday casge and then coming up with some ingenious multisig inheritance plans. Sort of like cash and gold, some people prefer to self custody them in safes/under their mattresses , and some prefer to deposit it with a bank. The second best option to everyone being their own bank, is for everyone who wants can be their own bank. I know i've lost few BTC due to my stupidity, I can't imagine what people who constantly forget where they parked would do. As far as PayPal, there's a difference between them being the other side to their BTC transactions and running a fractional reserve. The former, where they don't really purchase the BTC on the market and just show you the balance, in essence means they're taking a huge short position on BTC. I can't imagine that happening and them being a public company would surely require them to disclose such exposure on their balance sheets. The latter where they buy BTC but then lend it out to someone is more realistic but also risky and would have to be disclosed. BTC is not their core business, if they do lend it out they're insuring it with their own $250B market cap as they just can't loose your BTC in a boating accident without whole company going bankrupt. tl;dr it's not a good idea to force your grammy into a Faraday cage, and overall it's net positive for people to get their first exposure to BTC through PayPal, expecting PayPal to enable BTC deposits next, and then enable transfers out their "paper BTC" to other walled gardens like cash app, robinhood wallet, wechat wallet, tencent wallet, yandex wallet, Africa wallet, Europe wallet, every other country wallet etc... Of course all settlements between those walled gardens would have to be with real BTC on lightning

Thinking about the same. But don’t want to miss the grand cycle either (selling at a major top and getting back in lower).

Thinking about the same. But don’t want to miss the grand cycle either (selling at a major top and getting back in lower). Think of it this way: Only sell at a level that you would be happy to keep the fiat and only buy back in when the price of Bitcoin becomes irresistibly low. If you don’t know what those numbers would be right now, then you better figure that out now. If you leave it to decide in the heat of the moment, you will make the wrong decision.

Considering they're now engaged in a war against obesity, I would say food is cheap and plentiful (but not necessarily nutritious?). North America really screwed over Bolivia and Peru on the price of what used to be a staple for them - quinoa. It became the latest and greatest superfood here and unaffordable there. We are such inconsiderate bastards; it's no wonder the rest of the free world hates us.

Thinking about the same. But don’t want to miss the grand cycle either (selling at a major top and getting back in lower). Was considering the same but.... There was a good post on this by 600watt if my memory serves me well... in short, his assumption was there might be no ~80-85% dump anymore after a blow-off top. So hodlers who would sell right into the fake dump won't have an opportunity to rebuy back lower, instead the price will continue to rise... so I'm not so sure anymore...

Don't sell below $64,558
What's wrong about $64,548? Asking for a friend. That would be playing with fire.

At $250k BTC I’d be pretty tempted to set myself up pretty nice, but would still probably only sell like half.. Buy back? Idk.. this is probably the last chance to ever buy under $20k.. Next bottom imo, after blowoff top around 300.. About $60k.. But why not just hold through it again?

Really needs to bounce right here 18289 Or I think we extend the pullback. Which would be no biggy.
