MSTR will definitely NOT be joining the S&P500 this session. This is public information

Can you link a public source?

The official S&P Dow Jones Indices press release from August 25, 2025

Good: an official statement that does not explicitly deny inclusion, but implies or suggests no inclusion. An even better reply would have included a link.

Looks like you were able to dig it out yourself which was available a few days ago!  Why be an asshole because I didn't provide you a link?  You expect others to do research for you? 

A bit harsh for a newbie.

A bit harsh the trashing I received from the OGs!

It not he a Ham radio guy?

..-. ..- -.-. -.- / -.-- --- ..-


It certainly not a scrap wire collector that sells CAT 5 cable to a scrap yard guy!

Maybe next time you can get some good stuff like 4/0 or 500 MCM with a some copper weight rather than that little small gauge stranded stuff. 

I don't remember philipma1957 mentioning what type of Ethernet Copper Cable he has, it could be cat6/cat7/coax... can't just keep jumping to conclusions.

$7,500 profit is nothing to laugh at, copper is copper... 4000lbs (2-1 ratio) of CAT6 copper is just as good as 4000lbs of 500MCM copper...

BTW, excellent way to make new friends and win people over! doing a great job!

@hisslyness, FYI - I got tired quickly of the needless bullshit trashing I received...  Great way to treat newcomers!

It should be no fucking wonder why people are leaving and new members are becoming more rare. Something you OGs should think about!

Black Box sold 3 million cables at auction in 2022.

I GOT 2 LOTS around 32,000 wires new bagged and boxed for 500 bucks. Cost 2k for shipping.

They did not sell well. I paid 2 cents on the dollar for retail.


Weight of the ones left is about 8000 pounds.

So I have a buyer. 2,500 for 10,000 is okay.

PLUS we built a 30 foot  storage building which will soon be empty.

I WOULD HAVE preferred to sell the on ebay or other selling spots. But with orange man raising the price of copper I am selling them at 4x what I paid.

Before someone says I could have paid for 2500 worth of btc in 2022 I got these when btc was 40k in April of 2015

So 40k to 108k is not as good as

2500 to 10000.

I can get 6000 now and have 4000 in my pocket at cash.


Edit

6750 in btc and have 3250 cash in my pocket via the copper route

not a good trend IMO.

Most Bitcoin Still Belongs to Individuals, but Institutions Are Catching Up: Research

What to know:
River’s research estimates that as of Aug. 25, 2025, individuals hold about 65.9% of BTC (13.83 million coins).
Funds and ETFs control about 7.8% of supply; businesses hold 6.2% and governments control 1.5%.
River says the distribution is inferred from filings, address tagging and prior research. In other words, it is an estimate, not an on-chain census.

What do you guys think would happen if the majority of the supply is held by institutions? Wouldn’t that slow down the adoption process since most of them are just into holding long-term?

And does that also mean the market ends up being more manipulated by them, since they control such a big chunk of the supply?

To begin with, I will say that you should be careful what you wish for, because it could come true. I want to say that since I've been on this forum (10+ years) many members have wanted exactly what has been happening for the last, say, 5 years - or just a little less than 2 years since BTC spot ETFs were approved in the US.

Everything that is happening is a logical sequence of events, although it took a long time for the big ones to recognize the opportunity offered by Bitcoin, so we small ordinary people got the opportunity to invest at a price that Saylor and the other big players can't even dream of. Now the only question is at what price any of us decide to sell BTC, because they have the money to buy at $100k, but $200k or more won't be a problem for them either.

Realistically, they don't literally control the market, but in some ways they can greatly affect the price of BTC if they decide to dump a large amount of BTC - which is an option at any time. Whether anyone likes it or not, they are responsible for the fact that the price of Bitcoin is over $100k today.

It's down and I'm cool.
Been doing this for too long,
To be scared of ants!

Swearing in Morse code,
While begging us to trust you...
Not a pretty sight!

Stay strong now, brother Paashaas.
Time will heal your wound.

Don't trust, verify.
Trusted members welcome it.
Toxic trolls fear it!

Don't die with zero.
Take Warren Buffett's advice.
Give, but not too much!

And won't abide kiss-asses.

It's perfectly possible that this place is teeming with ignorance, but then why in f*cks sake do you insist in sticking around when you dislike the place that much?

It's like a serious question: If we're all so ignorant and unfriendly, why not just move on to a place where you feel appropriately welcome and treated in a way that you perceive as friendly?

Take the hit move on

@d_eddie - Correct! Quality members are becoming more rare because they're being run off with harassment by OGs that think it's fun to treat newcomers like shit.

Open your fucking eyes to see what is happening to this place! It has gotten a terrible reputation and rightly so...

I'll take Richy_T's recommendation and tell you, FUCK YOU!

Thank you for your well-reasoned, thoughtful and articulate reply.
You really know very well how to make it on a specific list of members that every user here maintains for himself.

I'll take Richy_T's recommendation and tell you, FUCK YOU!

Good start but one other piece of advice, if I could give it, would be to develop a thick skin. The internet's a rough place but none of it is real.

There have been good articles lately that cover all the scenarios, this one in particular caught my attention:

Back in 2017, that retest marked the final shakeout before BTC price rocketed to $20,000.

Fast-forward to today, and Bitcoin is once again hovering near a multimonth base between $105,000 and $110,000, a level that could be the launchpad for another parabolic leg upward.

I also like the idea that in 4 or 6 more weeks the price of BTC could rise.

Analyst ZYN suggests that Bitcoin could be on track for a fresh all-time high above $124,500 within the next 4–6 weeks, owing to these technical patterns that justify a potential rally in September.

I've seen a lot of negativity from many analysts, people give up quickly.
