I watched these movies almost 2/3 times and these were my favourites .
Avatar, Spider-Man, Avengers, Titanic, Black Panther

What's your favorite movie?

I have seen almost all of these and I can't say that I really enjoyed any of them.
Films that I found enjoyable were

The mask
As good as it gets
Groundhog day
The matrix
Schindlers list
All this super hero stuff I find too disconnected from reality and cant really get into them seriously.

I don't know how you can put The Mask on that list but the rest is top notch.

My favourite super hero stuff is The Dark Knight trilogy and Superman: The movie.
Doubt they will ever be topped. Best atmosphere, music, heart and believability.

Not even in the top 25 grossing list anymore.

Wonder Woman seemed to have been done in the same sort of style. It was mostly pretty good. The second one was an abomination.

Anything that takes Bitcoin below $20k again will make a lot of people, including me, buy aggressively. That will be a major giveaway because any positive news will lead to immediate profits even before the much anticipated bull market.

I don't see that happening though but then, we always keep open mind as either way is good for me... the beauty of DCA.

I am not sure what to make about these theories about backing up the truck - since a lot of bitcoin believers will already be buying BTC all the way down from $30k, so there can be questions about how much money many of the true bitcoin believers are going to have left if the BTC price were to drop below $20k again.

Actually, I am not left behind in Bitcoin accumulation since I started applying DCA. I might not be buying with large capital but at least I am building without minding the price. I got a decent proportion of my orders filled around $25,600 and I still orders lower. Remember in one of my comment, I told
made some gains applying DCA instead of my former pattern of buying at market price whenever I have fund available for buying.

So even in your case Odohu, are you holding back?  You have money in reserves in which you are going to back up the truck and start buying BTC like a mad man at certain price points?  Take a mortgage out on your house, your wife and kids?  There is ONLY so much money that anyone can get access to, especially if the price were to fall fast and then how would you be getting liquitity so quickly from other assets when BTC may well be the most liquid thing that you are holding.

If Bitcoin ever go below $20k, I will adjust my orders and be more aggressive. Also, I will immediately suspend other personal needs and use the funds to secure more Bitcoin. I know this might not be the pattern a lot of people will employ but there is nothing wrong with making some sacrifices for the greater good.

Not that I have money in reserve but under certain conditions, one will go the extra mile to achieve a target. I did not start building my portfolio early and I am not happy I did not have a reasonable stash of Bitcoin now. So, I will not want to miss any opportunity the market offer me to gain more Bitcoin. The decision may be aggressive and rash but it is worth taking. This may not sit well with those who already have a system and pattern of buying. This does not also mean I am not following my current DCA too. I can just call it plan B. Hope this make sense a little?

6 sats per byte?

That’s weird that it’s not confirmed yet. I very rarely use an ‘online wallet’ but I sent some bitcoin from an old blockchain.com wallet last week. I was complacent and also let the wallet decide the ‘best’ fee which was also 6 sats/byte and it confirmed in about 12 hours.

I remember in 2017 or 2018 I had to pay a mining pool to get a transaction confirmed. Shame ViaBTC free transaction accelerator is minimum 10 sat/byte now, it used to be 1 sat/byte.

I’ve just tried to accelerate your transaction on one of those free accelerators. Dunno if it will work but it supposedly rebroadcasts transactions.

Yeah that is strange, I sent several transactions on the 12th at 6 sats a byte (Edit: I was wrong I sent them at 7 sats) and they all went through under 30 min. Looking at mempool.space there are still plenty of blocks letting 6 sat fees through right now.

Viabtc has an accelerator too, if that wasn't the one you tried.

No. We was just waiting for the mini-dips to fill some more.

But now is the time to think about it, beware those that trade, if your faith is not in BTCiTcorn then it will be decided for you.

Meh. Those ATMs have been around for a few years now. Being entirely KYC’d are pretty unuseful.

OT:

With the U.S. and China now in financial ruins with running up and then crashing their economies with massive decade-long Ponzi property scams, I'm sure that TPTB are licking their lips looking for the next under developed nation they can run the same by-the-numbers nation building financial scam on. The trillions of newly printed U.S. dollars must stay abroad and not come home.

My guess is that it'll be India next. So what makes me say that?

It's perfect: a nation of 1.4 Billion people, still a bit behinds the times, still steeped in traditional living (like China was) and household savings, but with an increasingly progressive youth populous that would be easily manipulated into FOMO and hungry for new paper wealth. They used to be primarily an agricultural nation, but are moving more and more into manufacturing and IT.

Just start injecting hundreds of billions of dollars into it's economy and major cities, creating new white collar office and blue collar factory jobs, building up their cities and property markets, creating FOMO into better standards of living, lifestyle and luxury goods and services wants. Before you know it, they'll be flying high saying that they are the next "China".

The ultimate goal, of course, is to get it's citizens to stop all that nonsense saving and wealth hoarding, and get them to part with it, FOMO'ing into their stock market and newly created real estate investments.

You can see Apple and other tech companies already expanding into India very fast.

It's only a matter of time and enough money....

I can't properly judge Mary Poppins or Sound of Music as I was under ten and saw them in the movie theater first run. Same with 10 commandments.

So all of them have that young kid first impression issue.

https://newsbit.nl/chatgpt-voorspelt-dit-gebeurt-er-wanneer-alle-bitcoins-gemined-zijn/

What ChatGPT says about 2140 is:

• Reward for miners will be transaction fees only.
• Miners need to upgrade there equipment constantly to remain in the business where competition will be much high.

"The article quote an AI source which says Bitcoin price will be from 1 Billion to 10 Billion USD by 2140."
And I just want to live by 2140 to sell my Bitcoins at that price.

Yeah, even my 0.63 BTC will bring in a pretty good sum of money, presuming that I were to be able to hang onto such quantity of cornz for another 117 years-ish.

Dont worry JayJuanGee, even if you can survive next 7 or 27 years you will get good return on your 0.6 bitcoin.

Price predicted by AI in the article in 2030 price will be 0.5 to 1 Million USD and by 2050, 1 to 5 Million USD.

Or you can  leave it for your descendant who can cash it out in next 117 years.

Well, I see that even from my own rendition of bottom prices, it will take until about late 2048^** or early 2049 for 0.63 BTC to get into entry-level fuck you status, which is meant to be $2 million based on today's prices (so not accounting for how much more the dollar might decrease). .. I am not sure if it is realistic, but surely getting us into a 25 years time frame for 0.63 BTC to reach firmly into entry-level fuck you status.. even though surely some folks might consider from their own circumstances (cost of living and/or standard of living expectations) that they may well be able to get by in a kind of entry-level fuck you status at much lower values.

** By the way, I did have to update that particular chart to add in the late 2048 projections that show the time upon which 0.63 crosses over into entry-level fuck you status, since the earlier version had skipped the relevant data from 2043 until 2056... maybe I should just plug in the whole data-set - since I do seem to end up referring to that chart quite a bit and surely folks are curious about those kinds of projections regarding when their quantity of expected BTC will cross into entry-level fuck you status and similar kinds of questions in that direction.

Raw numbers:
11/28/2048

$3,139,783   Expected 200-week moving average

0.63698674  Quantity of BTC to equal $2 million at 200-week MA price

Actually, I am not left behind in Bitcoin accumulation since I started applying DCA. I might not be buying with large capital but at least I am building without minding the price. I got a decent proportion of my orders filled around $25,600 and I still orders lower. Remember in one of my comment, I told
made some gains applying DCA instead of my former pattern of buying at market price whenever I have fund available for buying.

It seems to me that relatively pure DCA practices would account for either cases in which:

1) you have some set dollar amount that you buy BTC at some set period whether daily, weekly or some other period

or

2) you buy based on when your money comes available, so the date and the amount would vary, but perhaps you would have a formula that allows you to figure out how much extra that you have available (accounting for monthly expenses to determine how much is left available, of course).

Surely the more that you vary either 1 or 2, then you are perhaps overly bringing your own discretion into the mix, and it still may well fit DCA depending on the extent to which you may well have some kind of a system in which you are trying to stay consistent but giving yourself some flexibility within some somewhat objective criteria.

So even in your case Odohu, are you holding back?  You have money in reserves in which you are going to back up the truck and start buying BTC like a mad man at certain price points?  Take a mortgage out on your house, your wife and kids?  There is ONLY so much money that anyone can get access to, especially if the price were to fall fast and then how would you be getting liquitity so quickly from other assets when BTC may well be the most liquid thing that you are holding.

If Bitcoin ever go below $20k, I will adjust my orders and be more aggressive. Also, I will immediately suspend other personal needs and use the funds to secure more Bitcoin. I know this might not be the pattern a lot of people will employ but there is nothing wrong with making some sacrifices for the greater good.

It does not sound unusually to either plan to do such a thing or to even attempt to carry out such plans if such a dip were to take place, but I still retain a certain level of skepticism regarding how BIG of a game that people tend to talk in these regards in comparison to what they are actually able to do based on the dynamics that I already described in my earlier post.

Not that I have money in reserve but under certain conditions, one will go the extra mile to achieve a target.

That's what I am saying.. it is easy to talk a BIG game in this regards, but frequently it is not going to be easy to deploy or even to decide whether to stick with the plan to deploy and/or to leverage some assets or credit that you might have available (or that you can conjure up).  Even though I am saying that I am skeptical, ultimately you are the one who is going to have to make those kinds of planning and/or execution choices and figure out if you actually ended up "backing up the truck" or whatever it was that you were planning to do in order to acquire .00324864 additional BTC.   

I did not start building my portfolio early and I am not happy I did not have a reasonable stash of Bitcoin now. So, I will not want to miss any opportunity the market offer me to gain more Bitcoin. The decision may be aggressive and rash but it is worth taking. This may not sit well with those who already have a system and pattern of buying. This does not also mean I am not following my current DCA too. I can just call it plan B. Hope this make sense a little?

Sure it makes sense, and you surely are the one in the best position to assess how aggressive you believe that you are able to be without somehow ending up causing too much stress upon yourself if post BTC performance does not end up living up to your expectations once you execute your relatively aggressive (from your perspective) additional BTC accumulation approach.
