Hi, I'm new here. To Moderator: If my post is out-of-place, please just let me know and I will come into line with any and all rules etc. I mean, I'm NOT trying to 'Troll', and I believe this is the right category.
So, I've been trying to make money with Crypto for a little over 3 years. To refresh anyones memory - the last Bitcoin halving took place on April 20, 2024, and the event reduced the block reward for miners from 6.25 to 3.125 new bitcoins per block.
Now, I'm no expert, but I actually think I'm pretty good at picking which experts I'm going to LISTEN TO and follow. And the ones I was listening to in early 2024 were super-excited and saying that this halving was the one that was going to push BTC over the 100k threshold for the first time.
And, they were absolutely right, at least about that much of their predictions. So I bought into that, and I had a nice portfolio of sympathetic coins - which they said had to surge if BTC surges. I had Cardano, Solona, Polkadot, Aave... 7 or 8 others - and lo' and behold, when BTC first crossed the 100k mark on DEC 5th, 2024 - most of my portfolio ROCKED!
I mean, I peaked in the surge at being up about 75% across the board - some individual holdings were moderately down - others surged to as high as +400% etc. So overall up that 75% from my initial outlay. I was feeling pretty d_mn good about it, but then I BLEW IT. I listened to a particular 2 newsletter/blog writers that said to effect of ...
"yes, once it crosses that 100k threshold, there will be no going back, over the next months it will continue to 250k a coin, and from there, eventually up to 1M'. But there will be No Going Back". Well, obviously they were wrong about that part! btw, Michael Saylor I believe was saying that same thing back then, and I'd always check him out, but he wasn't one of my 'Guru's'.
Well obviously - they were WRONG about never coming down again, once it crossed 100k. And I got complacent (my biggest mistake!) and thought the portfolio would ride it on up to +200%, +400% etc... Needless to say, it didn't happen Lol... my portfolio dwindled back down, to even-point, etc.
But, we learn as we go, and I think the more bitter the lesson is, the more you can improve from it.
An underlying point is this, I'm always looking for opportunities to $prosper$ in the Crypto market - I mean it doesn't have to be buy BTC, ETH, or others and just 'wait' or 'hope' for their value to increase.
I'm looking at if there are any credible and viable 'creative' concepts that might be a good alternative investment avenue? I'm checking out one now that at least looks very interesting so far, and the basics of it are something like this:
What if you could invest in not the coins themselves, but invest in getting a piece of the 'Tolls'? Check it out...
Analogy:Say that there was a super-highway of transiting cars/trucks, with the volume of traffic transiting on it numbering into the ten's of thousands per day. NOW - what if there was an alternative to investing into say - the stock of the highway construction company that has years of lucrative gov. contracts to build more and more highways - with all it's relative infrastructure (the 'BTC' in this analogy). Now, this could be a heck-of-a-good investment, but of course it would be 'buy-and-hold' - watch the market forces like a hawk etc...
Well, what if you could invest in the 'Toll Handling' company, the one running the extensive-array's of Toll Booth's (Crypto Transaction Fee's in this analogy) and get just a miniscule "Piece" of every car/truck's fee, when they had to stop and pay at the booth. Right? Now, with that massive volume of small transactions, it would amount to big numbers because those 'Micro-Fragments' really add up to something fantastic.. right?
Now, again I'm not trying to 'Troll' b.c. I"m not 'selling' sh_t, or anything like that - but just as I was fascinated by the BTC 'HALVING' concept as it was introduced and explained to me back in early 2024 - I'm fascinated right now by this particular concept, and I'm in the process of Vetting it... you know, learning all I can before I invest a dime! If anyone interested I can update as I learn more - and if I do decide to invest in these 'Crypto Transaction Fee's' as I understand it now... I update with the results...
There's a webby on it tonight at 8p EST, and I HAVE NO affiliation with it, but at this time I believe it to be a legitimate company/offering, and my first order of business is to prove that wrong! I mean, I'll ask the questions in the chat if I can... I'm gonna find out if this is Real man... Can I leave my email if it's not against the rules? Anyway wants to sit-in on tonight webby hit me up for the link at (refunder dot thunder @ protonmail dot com) If tha't COOL! If it's not, I won't do it again, I promise... I'm just kinda excited about this concept and maybe someone else is too.... idk
I mean, I have no piece or affiliation with them, but think of the fricking volume a 'Coinbase' and it's competitors do in just a day. I might be off, and correct me if so - but I believe there is upwards of over 1B dollars of BTC traded everday. Right?
So that's why I find this whole concept just 'Bind-Moggling' shwoooh...
