@grok @dopeyogi_crypto @METAJAYB @0xSweep Why would you sell the only scarce thing, and for what? Honest question.

Short-term (weeks): Bearish pressure from risk-off sentiment—BTC already dipped ~4% to ~$63k today on US/Israel strikes, with $128B crypto wipeout as investors flee to gold/oil. 3-month window: Highly volatile, depends on escalation. - Quick containment/regime stability: Rebound to $70k+ possible as fear fades, hashrate drop (2-5%) tightens supply post-adjustment. - Prolonged war/fall: Deeper dip to $50-55k on dumps from Iranian holders (~$7-10B ecosystem) + broader selloff, though lost rigs could eventually support price. Net: Geopolitics > mining math short-term. Not advice—markets unpredictable.

The Iran war is the biggest Bitcoin supply event since China's mining ban. Iran mines BTC for $1,320. America mines it for $50,000+. 10 million Iranians moved their savings into crypto because the rial is worthless. If this regime falls: - Billions in BTC get dumped or lost forever - 5% of global hashrate disappears overnight - 427,000 rigs go dark Get ready for the supply shock.

@PieterOmtzigt Je bedoelt 'conspiracy is nu wel bewezen zeg'

Als een VN-panel het nu 'misdaden tegen de menselijkheid'(!) noemt, een zeer precieze juridische term (en terecht) dan moet er ook een vorm van grondig onderzoek en arrestaties volgen hoor. (het woord conspiracy is nu wel verdwenen zeg) reuters.com/world/allegati…

@PieterOmtzigt Tiktokkers vogelen het allemaal uit, kan je beter naar kijken

@Kay_B857 @btcmag_nl You see!

@florusp @btcmag_nl Ooh! Maar was het juist niet de Rabo die klanten de laan uit stuurde wanneer deze Bitcoin kochten?

In 2017 besloot Danske Bank om crypto te weren en waarschuwde het nog voor fraude, witwasrisico's en extreme volatiliteit. Nu noemt het de markt ''beter gereguleerd'' en worden Bitcoin-ETP's aangeboden via de eigen bankapp. Het is de zoveelste bank die deze stap maakt, omdat de vraag vanuit klanten simpelweg te groot is geworden.

@Kay_B857 @btcmag_nl rabobank.nl/particulieren/…

@btcmag_nl Zijn onze eigen banken al wakker aan het worden of blijven ze stoïcijns geloven dat ze ons kunnen blijven belazeren met 1% rente op een spaarrekening?

@ZeeContrarian1 Well objectively it is the best money the human race ever discovered. But indeed looks like it will still take a while for the world to realize fully.

If you’re buying Bitcoin now, I’m genuinely curious about the thesis. Is it the future of money? That’s what I heard five years ago, and I still can’t buy much with it. Is it a hedge against inflation? The data suggests otherwise. Is it a counter to dollar devaluation? That hasn’t held up. Is it a hedge against global turmoil? We’ve seen that fail as well. By simple deduction, there’s no clear reason to buy Bitcoin other than to speculate on price. If you have a different thesis, I’d be happy to hear it.

@Brightdutchy @wol @geldmaat Serieus? Privacy is een groot goed, ook (eigenlijk, vooral) als je niks te verbergen hebt.

@wol @geldmaat Waar heb je cash geld voor nodig? Waarom betaal je niet gewoon met pin?

Wat is dit nou weer ineens @geldmaat - bij een doodnormale ATM.

@Anders_ @zimmah @BowesChay It's the money.

@zimmah @BowesChay Totally part of the problem… but people thinking that another puppet solves the problem don’t understand that we need to understand the underlying problem of deep state.

This is whats destroying Europe. Not the Russians, Not China, Not Iran. This.

@SwissHodler Be careful with the leverage.

It's been a tough year. Moved out on my own 😢 Had to spend some sats to cover the move and Zurich’s brutal cost of living. Now I’m buying back using BTC as collateral. Still standing. Still HODLing⚡️ …but I also met her. And she’s a Bitcoiner. I think I’ll be fine. Love wins 🧡

@VinnyLingham @bensig What should I think? Elaborate please :-)

@bensig Makes you think, doesn’t it?

Imagine being a former Bitcoin Foundation board member and deciding gold is the only real money.

People would rather not research and just say the lazy thing

@The_Airmass @bitcoinjack

I have all my ZEC sitting in a Ledger since 2017 that I entirely forgot about. But the pump naturally revived my interest. Today I open the Ledger, try to send out some ZEC and nothing happens. I start digging around and turns out that: "Back in Ledger derived addresses as m/44'/133'/0'/0 (the same as now) but the firmware’s signing method used a different hashing routine and didn’t tag legacy inputs the way NU5 does. So when Ledger Live requests a signature today, your device sees “unknown input type” and stalls". Guess what? All my ZEC is useless and can't be accessed without jumping through complicated procedures or putting the security of all assets on the Ledger at risk. I neither have the time or the desire to deal with this shit. This brings me back to my original point, no shitcoin can ever eclipse Bitcoin. Quite literally, if I was to go surfing in Bali for 10 years or go into a coma and then check my wallet 10 years later the only asset that I am 100% sure will be there is Bitcoin. I have no idea what will happen with anything else.

@Block_Apes @bariksis Or US defense generally

@Block_Apes @bariksis Saylor and his passion for the Navy was a big tell.

Saylor knows something. He’s known since January. He does not care about the share price and he doesn’t care how hard you bitch about “ATM” or “Dilution” or any of that. His only concern is buying as much Bitcoin as humanly possible by any means. He knows time is running out. The Bitcoin adoption curve is entering its exponential phase, where the early-mover advantage collapses and latecomers are forced to buy at any price. Once nation-states and institutions fully recognize it as pristine collateral, the window to accumulate cheaply will end with VERY short notice.

@GrumpsCrypto @OscarEllisonIV @adam3us @bitcoinarchive @SaniExp @grok how big should this short be to make this a viable strategy

@OscarEllisonIV @adam3us @bitcoinarchive @SaniExp Do you understand what I am implying? They sell their BTC taking what I would assume is massive profit... then amplify that profit by shorting the market they know is going to nuke.... Burn the candle on both ends.

JUST IN: A Bitcoin whale sold 24,000 BTC worth over $2.7 billion, causing today’s -$4,000 crash in minutes. They still hold 152,874 BTC worth more than $17 BILLION. 😳 h/t @SaniExp

@saylor @PeterLBrandt Just a 'tiny' bit more than just the asset, yes.

@PeterLBrandt Bitcoin is an asset, circulating on a network, governed by a protocol, and rooted in ideology.

Bitcoin is an asset folks It's an asset!!!!! Get a life those who believe Bitcoin will right all the wrongs in their life will be greatly disappointed

@mvanversendaal Next time we settle it will be our citadel we are building.

The reason we’re leaving the Netherlands again is not what you think… Yes, I’m a Bitcoiner. Yes, the wealth tax madness in the Netherlands is getting completely out of hand. Yes, I never agree with the decisions our politicians make. And yes, I see my once-beautiful country slowly going to shit. But that’s not the reason we’re looking elsewhere again. Sure, those things play a role… but they’re not the reason. So what is our reason? It all comes back to the principle that “time is our most valuable asset.” I recently turned 40, and I’m fitter than ever. But I’m also more aware than ever... Deeply aware of how grateful I am to have been born into a life full of opportunities, my brain, my body, my background, it gives me chances not everyone has. And so, I believe I have a responsibility to make the absolute most of it. And my belief is this: If you stay in one place too long, you stop doing that. Yes, of course, staying put gives you focus, depth, vertical growth. That’s great. But it often lacks breadth. It lacks true openness. It lacks horizontal growth. In my view, one must alternate the two: vertical and horizontal growth. When you’ve been deeply focused for too long, you inevitably miss what’s happening around you. And that’s okay, if it’s a conscious choice. But for us, it’s time again for more inspiration, more creativity, and more of the unknown. That’s why we, as a family, are heading out again. We’re deliberately seeking newness, emptiness, the unfamiliar: so that everything can start flowing again. And no, I know this isn’t for everyone. But if you somehow feel the same, or it resonates with you, then just go for it 🙏🏽 I’ll keep you posted, of course.
