Trump seems optimistic about an interest rate decrease from the Fed but I’m not so sure. It is nice to have that on the back burner for bullish catalysts though. Between that, the coming report on digital assets from the White House on Wednesday, Strategy getting into the S&P 500, & the Midnight airdrop, it seems there are a lot of reasons to be happy if you hold BTC.

So when do we think the next breakout to the upside is going to happen?
We seem to have been stuck in a tight range of $115,000 to $120,000 for a while, even though it hasn’t been long at all. I must admit, I didn’t enjoy the dump during the last 24 hrs.

I feel we will be stuck in this range for a while. I don't think bitcoin is going to break out to a new ATH just yet, but probably after like a month or close, I believe it will. I still believe BTC can get to somewhere between 140k to 150k this year.

And, BTC did not dumb. You can't call that a dump. A simple dip in price is what it was. It was just about a 2-3% price drop, that's not a dump, is it?

🚀 ₿ 🔥  Can Quantum Computing Destroy Bitcoin? NO !!!!

Bitcoin is a piece of monetary masterpiece, but naysayers think quantum computing could topple $BTC

Contrary to concerns, quantum computing does not pose an imminent threat to Bitcoin’s security. While algorithms like Shor’s could theoretically challenge Bitcoin’s elliptic curve cryptography by factoring large integers or solving discrete logarithms, the quantum computers needed is decades away from reality.

Current quantum systems are too primitive, with limited qubits and high error rates, to endanger Bitcoin’s 256-bit encryption.Bitcoin’s design further mitigates risks.

Only about 4 million BTC sit in addresses with exposed public keys, potentially vulnerable to future quantum attacks. Modern practices, like SegWit and pay-to-script-hash addresses, keep public keys hidden until funds are spent, shrinking the attack surface.

Users can also proactively move funds to quantum-resistant addresses.The economic fallout from a quantum attack -- often cited as a potential trigger for a global recession -- is unlikely.

Bitcoin’s $1 trillion market cap is significant, but the network’s decentralized nature means no single point of failure exists. Even if a quantum breakthrough occurred, targeting Bitcoin would be less practical than attacking centralized systems, given the resources required.  

To stay ahead, Bitcoin’s community is already exploring post-quantum cryptography. The National Institute of Standards and Technology is standardizing quantum-resistant algorithms, which Bitcoin could adopt via a soft fork.

With its adaptive technology and vigilant community, Bitcoin’s $1 million dream stands on solid ground, not a house of cards.

However Trump forced Powel to continue to reduce interest rates, even a few days ago when he visited the Fed's office that was being repaired, we know that Trump's business in real estate is quite large, if a large interest rate people will not dare to take property, it also ruins his business, (must see his hidden intentions).

But I believe that the decline in interest rates will occur, at least twice this year.

All of these plans will definitely happen, how bitcoin will shock the market more than what we imagine, even Fomo will occur significantly, there is still enough time to add some Bitcoin fragments before that day arrives.

As said Jay JuanGee (there is no time late to buy Bitcoin)

yeah, I also prefer to do the 1 smerit thing. So I see that that naturally comes with difficulties when you have a lot to distribute as a merit source.
Sometimes I just thought, and probably users like nutilda as well, "why is JJG meriting this so obviously merit farming account?"
Which might be not so obvious when you have to go through many new accoutns and decide if to merit

It seems to me that nutildah likes to be a bit of a drama queen, and perhaps even thinking that "he's got it all figured out," and sure, perhaps there are advantages to publicly calling out matters rather than trying to go about it in some kind of a less public and/or diplomatic way.

So, yeah, members have rights to "call out" other members publicly instead of reporting (or maybe supplementing their attempts to report such members), yet it seems that he's trying to be too imposing, and yeah, sure maybe it helps for some merit sources to see how nutildah or others might whine about their smerit sending practices, so whatever he is doing is not completely without affects on how some source members might reconsider their smerit sending practices... and you never know, on the margins too, there might be some ways that nutildah complaining might affect some other more credible members to complain and then theymos might decide to take some action to attempt to address the issue as it had been presented.  

Perhaps? perhaps?  or there could be some Streisand effect, too... depending on how matters might evolve. I have frequently thought that part of the solution would be to have more merit source members, yet I doubt that would even resolve the problem that nutildah is trying to get at and for some reason he thinks that ongoing whining about me might someday have more benefits rather than disadvantages.. .. .since surely there are some members who agree with his position, so it is not like his fantasy ideas are completely without support... and sure ever once in a while I like to call him a dweeb or to tell him to fuck off, but if I were to only stay with that kind of a response, then some members might start to agree with him more because they believe that I am required to make some kind of a further explanation in regards to his ongoing and fairly regular inflammatory attacks implying that I am being abusive or crossing some kind of an imaginary line (that's in his retarded head) that I am being too liberal in my smerit sending and supposedly not engaging in enough due diligence or whatever.. fantasy requirements he would like to informally impose since theymos is seeming to not inclined to be giving nutildah an smerit Czar position (at least not so far, lucky us (meaning the forum))..

I think instead of focusing on the way somebody complains and the effect it might have or not, it's more important to find out the reason why people feel the urge to complain.

The WO content has changed quite a bit when compared to the time before the merit system.
OGs came here (and some are still here) since 2013-14 for the old style WO, and not for consuming the low IQ copy paste shit of 3rd world merit farmers who need a second income.

And frankly that's also nothing what I like to see in my beloved WO!

I always enjoyed the intelligent and diverse input of highly individual crazy people that were buying Bitcoin when everybody laughed at them. Yes the freaks, and I quote, some of God's own prototypes. Some high-powered mutants of some kind never even considered for mass production...

That's what made the WO so special for me. And every step away from that makes me feel sad...

well it is tough bitcointalk has allowed many poor people not be poor due to signature policy.

So to hate JJG for giving merits to farmers is kind of mean spirited.


Also BTC was p2p not hodl

look how I feel doing p2p and using coins to pay while not doing hodl as a choice.

Look at my signature address it handled 700 coins over 10 years time.

One could argue the WO hijacked BTC due to hodl hodl hodl hodl mindset.

and now wants to fuck little third worlders out of some small amounts of coin via farming.

Sounds like uptight asshole take the ladder of success away from them mindset.

But I digress corn is moving short term very side ways.

I did pick up a new bottle of stronger Jack.

So I have a 129.8 proof Elijah bottle not opened
and a 130.1 proof bottle of Jack not opened.

honey badger and buddy need to do a hookup soon so I can open these.
