The Financial Times report states that the promise of Bitcoin becoming a superpower is prompting various US institutions to increase their crypto exposure.

That cap is wrong, very wrong, because Bitcoin never stop of being Great.

Bitcoin was is and is gonna be great always.

no gain no pain

Oh by the way, I frequently tell the story of some construction costs that I had in 2018/2019, and quite a few bills ended up coming  due way too early than I anticipated, and it seems to me that at that time, I ended up selling around 3.5% of my BTC stash to cover my bills (and the  BTC prices might have had been between $4k and $4,200 at the time that I sold), and maybe I was able to recover around half of the amount that I sold.. but it becomes a bit unclear how much I was able to recover because surely when we sell extra amounts, we cannot always compare where we are at as compared to where we would have had been, even though we did end up taking a fork in the road and having to make the choice...and surely part of the reason I had to sell as much as I did is based on a kind of presumption that I did not care, and if needed I could  have sold around $6k or $7k.. but then all of a sudden trading prices dropped nearly in half...and then my bills were coming in...so  sometimes mistakes are made...but like right now, if I had similar bills, I probably could sell only less than half of a percent of my stash and end up with more cash (perhaps double the cash) than I ended up with selling 3.5-ish% of my then BTC stash in late 2018.

[...]

Yes... It happens...

My mobile phone now costs ~$12,000 (0.13 BTC when I bought it). I had plenty of fiat to buy it with that, but I used BTC for...reasons (BTW, I had pepperoni pizza yesterday -- paid with fiat). I guess we shouldn't dwell too much on our past BTC spending, because it will likely feel more bitter than sweet (in some sense). Better to think of the spent BTC as percentages of our stash, as you do above, which nicely demonstrates our stash's current purchasing power, which, hopefully for many of us, is near- or past-fuck-you status. So, yeah, we bought some stuff with our corn, but we can still buy a ton more stuff, and our purchasing power keeps going up forever, so it looks like we're OK to shave off small amounts as needed, to feed our often complex and sometimes illogical spending habits...

well I prefer baseball

and the Super Bowl was the second American football game I watched for this season as I am not a big fan of it.

as for the other football the most I ever watched of it was watching Ted Lasso.

Wait maybe a bit of the Italian league with my father in law when he was alive I would watch with him. Mostly because I liked hanging out with him.


Not a fan of either version of football, as I said baseball and  also bowling are the sports I do watch.


Oh the halftime show was meh

GM, Observers Of The Wall, another week of watching what Bitcoin will do. Hopefully new all time highs soon, I don’t think we are far away from a breakout.



@CryptoJelleNL
Bitcoin trades at $97,700 and the fear & greed index sits at a comfy 43.

Lots of room to grow.

@CryptoJelleNL
Bitcoin has spent 2.5 months going sideways, and sentiment went from 'we are all going to make it'  to 'we are all going to die'.

Meanwhile, the daily structure looks strong.

First notable higher low inside the range. Flip $100,000, and new all-time highs are next.

@CryptoJelleNL

This cycle, Bitcoin has gone up, then sideways, then up again.

I'll keep betting on that pattern repeating until it stops working.

Up again, soon.

Bitcoin just keeps on making higher lows.

Moving averages caught up to price again.

Ready to push higher.

I ONLY want to bet if we can clarify the terms, and yeah, I had proposed a bet that we would be betting in bitcoin rather than in dollars... so yep, my understanding of 10 to 1 would be something like my winning 0.001 BTC if we go below $90k, and your winning 0.0001 BTC if we don't.  Surely the bet would close if the BTC price were to go below $90k or alternatively  on the other end (on the upside), I was willing to have the bet close at either the end of 2026 to close the bet or alternatively if we reach $333,333 or higher, then that would close the bet too.

Of course, you are free to propose alternative terms.. I was just winging it and just trying to capture the essence of your willingness to commit to your sorcerer wannabe claim... We could even reduce the amounts of the bet by half or even more than half you consider the current proposed amounts as too high.  We could change the odds too,  but I thought that I was being fairly generous with the odds since you were proclaiming "never" below $90k ever again, so my giving something in the ballpark of 10% odds is being generous to you in order to allow you some wiggle room, no?  If you said  "never" and  if you really meant it, then you should be willing to give me 100:1 or  even 1,000 to  1 odds, so to me, 10 to 1 odds seems pretty generous from me to you, in the whole scheme of things.  No?

I got it.

Here is the proposal, I am giving you 10:1 odds. I will pledge 0.0003070 BTC (equivalent to 30$) and if BTC goes below 90k$ before Dec 2026 then you can have it or I will get it back by 31st Dec 2026 if BTC doesn't goes below 90k$. I can also have it back before Dec 2026, if BTC reaches 333,333$.

You can provide me any wallet where I can pledge these BTC or we can hire services of hisslyness as he already has offered his help.

Typical... Always changing the goal post... not really confident after all?

WatChe, You should take the bet. then it will be a win-win-WIN scenario...

Think about how much that 0.0001 would be worth in 2 years time! if need be I can help facilitate this small wager.

Canada will soon be a state  

That's hilarious.

China, Russia and Europe will be states long before Canada bows down.

Little Donny Doofus may want to be emperor of the universe but he's just deluded.

 

Yeah here is how I look at it.

Canada = too hard to take over

Mexico = harder to take over.

but

Greenland = pretty easy

Just the Panama Canal = pretty easy .


So my gut is he says Canada
and he says Mexico

but he wants Greenland and the canal


the canal could be argued the treaty Jimmy Carter did voiding the original treaty was not legal and it still belongs to the USA under the terms of the 1899 -1910 treaty arrangements. (can't remember the actual date of the first agreement but it was stated to be in perpetuity which means for the rest of the existence of the canal.

Greenland has real value if the world is going to melt the ice.

and Russia can not be stopped from melting the ice

so owning Greenland vs a weak non nuclear country like Denmark is a big priority.

The USA could over pay for it.

So maybe Greenland becomes the 51st state and not Canada .  After all Greenland only has around 56000 people on it. Canada has millions as does Mexico.

So I think Trump or like I say the musky trumpeter wants Greenland and Panama Canal

We will see how this unfolds.

Hoping we the USA are not stupid enough to directly bother with Canada and Mexico

Putin will melt the world's ice?

I was wondering if you have some kind of Trump derangement syndrome, but it seems a much broader issue   .. just joking ...or maybe not (?)

On the Kelce/Swift thing, I remember when young love was reserved for the young and I don't understand the fascination with them.  Those two might even be too old to have children.

Hey! Don't be ageist.

I got to enjoy young love in my 70s.

.....

70 nowadays is like 50 in the 60s, but much better ...especially in your case
