Also important (not going into alts too much here) BNB and ETH hit important resistance zones.
Should end in a BTC pump, ultimately. $60k incoming?

Hopefully.

I love the smell of burnt alt investors in the morning well, any time really.

Have a sMerit.
Not so much for the quality of the post, but more for the quality of the laughs it gave me

"I'd rather put my eggs in ONE basket that I fully control, than in TEN baskets that others control."

I was just looking at CoinMarketCap:
#1: Bitcoin! But it's losing market share, so I wondered what's taking the market share. Turns out, most of them are centralized:
#2: Centrally controlled Hardforkcoin Ethereum.
#3: Centrally controlled Binance Coin.
#4: Centrally controlled Ripple.
#5: Not centrally controlled Dogecoin (but originally started as a meme troll).
#6: Centrally controlled and probably not backed stablecoin Tether. I find it very hard to believe someone holds 52 billion dollar on some bank account to counter this value.
#7: Cardano. I know nothing about this so this is where I stop.

Why are people giving up their trustless Bitcoin for centrally controlled coins that are solely created to make the creator rich?

take Doge off the list and I would agree with you.

understand doge for what it is:

well backed by asics
and 10x the blocks which means 10x the transactions each day are possible.

the other coins are garbage.

Does this mean buy doge no.  But it does not belong on the list you made.

I think that they are not so much giving up their bitcoin, but since 2017 fresh retailers pump their money into altcoins.
Many new "investors" consider themselves too late to make monster gains with bitcoin (because "too expensive", "too late" ... and so on).
This is my impression of the 2020/21 market.

Everyone's trying to pick the next facebook to Bitcoin's myspace but in reality, most of them are betting on Friends Reunited and there's no sign of Bitcoin failing yet.

I think the list was the top coins by market cap on coinmarketcap. That makes Doge definitely belong on there. There's a few others that don't though (most notably XRP).

I also suspect that the market caps of many alts are being manipulated so not really a good indicator for most purposes and Bitcoin's market cap has its own questions too (nothing nefarious but they are there). Market cap is mostly a meaningless metric anyway.

I'd hate having to keep selling. I'll hodl for now.

Whenever i sold, i did regret it later.
Even when i sold "at a profit".

I know right look at all the serious investors buying them too, obviously the future.

Actually, these things are pumping too much, I suspect a crash is just around the corner and I do wonder if it will be one that takes BTC down with it (nowhere near as much of course, 20% maybe). This buying seems to be coming from noob retailers, these are not the people who will convert to BTC, they'll go to cash and then exit alltogether with their losses. If we're lucky the original holders of these coins will convert to BTC, but, having seen the comments from these morons on twitter for the last few years I highly doubt it.

What will happen though is seious investors will buy the dip again as usual, so there is that.

1BTC Donation
Brett Lee has donated one Bitcoin to CryptoRelief.in, a community-run fund started by Polygon co-founder Sandeep Nailwal. And Sportsbet.io has now followed Lee's example, also donating one Bitcoin to the cause. The generous donations represent a total of over $155,000 USD (at the time of writing).

I missed this news!

When you see all those shitcoin sellwalls being eaten up, the phrase "eat shit" gets a whole new perspective 

[Biodom]

I already said before that i don't like these developments.
Already, some f-kheads are starting saying the Nescape word..blah blah. Whatever.
Honestly, I blame Barry Silbert in part and his stupid fund construct (that does not allow btc sells from the fund).
As the result-a large negative premium in GBTC, wrecking havoc.

The structure of the whole market is quite similar to Jan 2018, unfortunately.
If bitcoin will not go up within the next 2wk max, shitcoins will collapse, imho, and bitcoin will decline too a bit.
Time is of the essence or we will have a meetup with 42-43K.
The idea of a double hump is still alive.

I could well live with that.
House extension works holding up for about the next 2 months, after which some monthly spendable fiat should be available to me again.
I'd welcome a $43k break of the early bull run and buy some more sats for the future.


EDIT: That said, have a good night y'all.

... looking at coinmarketcrap only one thing to say, hory f#*@ing shit

... many of them have doubled in less than a month which can only mean the mania in shitcoinville is blowing off and reaching it's zenith

... next stop is carnagetown in shitcoinville, especially if the eth2.0 launch is Vitalik stillborn, one bug at this juncture could kill off a large portion of that sector imho .... compare with the taproot upgrade method e.g.

Social commentary:

Bill Gates divorces after 27 years.
Before, Bezos divorced as well, after 25 years.
Sorry, but what's the point to do it at 65?
Got tired of social causes pursuits? Bill was always super competitive.
All that focus on charity work was so not him.

Maybe time to relax a bit:

The fear of the upcoming (even in 6-12 mo) btc bear is holding me back, otherwise, why not?
