Happy 10th Birthday to Dogeparty!
|
Weren't there a bunch of shitcoins trying to glom onto bitcoin's strength by burning bitcoin? Those are lost... and for nothing. imo
edit: "...And so, on January 2 the 30-day burn period commenced, in which people interested in Counterparty's project elected to send 2,140 bitcoins to an unspendable address in exchange for a total of 2.6 million XCP."
There's just one, XCP. The current price of a single XCP is indeed far lower than the burning cost of the BTC. However, it did give rise to a proto-NFT movement that includes the 1st digital trading cards issued on any blockchain, as well as a host of other interesting experiments. As a matter of fact, just yesterday, the 1st 1-of-1 token with an image associated it turned 10 years old. https://jpjanssen.com/a-timeline-of-non-fungible-tokens-on-counterparty/I did not participate in the Counterparty burn but I did burn over 1.6 million DOGE for Dogeparty, which seemed to make more sense at the time as there were already billions of Dogecoin in circulation. I've almost broken even on it by now Not that I would have held the $DOGE past 1 cent...

17.6% Lost +5.2% Satoshi Wallet =22.8% Forget it 6.6% yet to be minded… there’s your chance. Problem is, plenty people are willing to sell. That's what we've seen so far approaching 70K or just getting over it. Eventually it will probably change, but in the mean time I don't think we are going up for some time. Maybe 3-6 months (around the rate cut, election whatever), maybe a year even.

It may be the carry trade: Short the futures, buy physical, pocket the premium. When the futures expire, it's guaranteed to go even against the physical. A similar strategy can be played with perps, but in this case your reward is the funding rate, which can swing the wrong way. Selling as soon as the price crosses your buying price? Well, sure this happens - but how common is it? I don't know the paper hands/steel claw ratio for these relative newcomers. I don't think many OGs are selling. Well, maybe some whales are replenishing the ETFs' reserves, but likely this happens OTC. Eventually it will probably change, but in the mean time I don't think we are going up for some time. Maybe 3-6 months (around the rate cut, election whatever), maybe a year even.
It could be, but King Daddy is well known for rarely, if ever, giving AF about rational expectations. I'm still expecting a God(zilla) candle while everybody is sleeping. Well, not everybody cause the world apparently is round not flat - but I think you get my drift

Well, not everybody cause the world apparently is round not flat - but I think you get my drift True, often no reason why suddenly everyone jumps on the bandwagon at the same time. But with the ETFs maybe it will follow other (non crazy AI) markets a bit more. It's been said often that when the price action is boring, is usually the best time to buy.

what is this "brake pedal" you speak of?
|
I'm not sure if there were others but some people send to 1BitcoinEaterAddressDontSendf59kuE... just for fun I guess?
Then there's about 595 here lost forever 1111111111111111111114oLvT2... again, not sure why
for coins to be truly consider gone forever they need to be burned via OP_RETURN otherwise they are just sitting an an addy no one has the key to. may be consider purely semantic but it makes a difference. it also removed those from the UTXO set.

If it's not 68k in one hour I'll eat my hat We offer a menu for such circumstances. It need not be an unpleasant experience. Option 1 is for newbs newcomers to headcover treats, as we like to call our specialty food. The basic option is well exemplified by the young age of our happy eating customer. Option 2 might be considered as cheating, as it's made from specially selected ingredients of the highest quality. The same ingredients are used every day, everywhere, to bake pizzas and other delicacies. Option 3 seems the one favored by customers with strong exposition to crypto. Please do place your reservation in advance. We pride ourselves on satisfying even the most extraordinary or extravagant requests, but especially Option 3 has been very popular recently, so we need to get our supplier on alert in order to offer you the best possible product. Thank you! (1) (2) (3)

A possibility: OTC whales are people like C. Palihapitiya, who promoted SPACs before (yikes!) and now profess suspiciously bullish targets for bitcoin. On WS, if you are very bullish, it means that you want to sell and vice versa. People like Chamath (but not necessarily himself) are selling into ETF accumulation, perhaps (this was also proposed by @dragonvslinux). If so, this may continue for a while (maybe even for the rest of the year or at least until September).
Another, worse possibility, is that in the eyes of Silicon Valley "elite", at some point bitcoin will compete for electricity resources with AI data centers. Who do you think they would preferentially back?
Considering everything, I still think that bitcoin should attain approximately gold value (15-16 tril as of now) in due course. That would be 750-800K/btc. The question is-would it happen in this cycle (hopefully) or the next one (more likely lately).
Does BTC consume so much energy that it would compete with anyone today or by the end of this decade? A few years ago, some data indicated that the total energy consumption for mining was about 0.2% of world production. Given that everything with AI is super popular right now, I wouldn't be surprised if soon they start selling bread and milk that will have the AI label on it. I like your optimism, but honestly I don't see that much money can flow into BTC in this or the next cycle. Of course, I have nothing against something like that happening, even if it is half of what you wrote
