The United States already has a "Strategic #Bitcoin #Reserve."
It consists not just the 200K under gov control, but also MicroStrategty and all U.S.-based #ETF 's.
These are giant hoards of Bitcoin that can easily be nationalized. It is important to say again and again...
"Not your keys, not your Bitcoin."

Most people can't get rich from #Bitcoin, because they lack the vision and fortitude to hold it LONG term. Like ten years or more. Most people will jump ship as soon as they've made a measly 100%. Or they think they'll buy back cheaper.
Long term #hodl works, but not for most people, because most people are, collectively, stupid.

If you hate #Trump, buy #Bitcoin.
You may choose to leave the country if he's elected President. Bitcoin let's you move wealth across borders in your head. Or you may want to donate to #AntiTrump forces: Trump wont be able to stop you, because Bitcoin resists #censorship.
If Trump is elected, Bitcoin will see a big bump in price; you may as well capture some of that wealrh and use it in a way you think best.
Whether you hate Trump or love him, Bitcoin is the answer. Put away your irrational hatred of Bitcoin and start using it to effect the change you want to see in the world. It is a tool.

I feel physically sick.
I'm concerned about all the #Bitcoin swords of Damacles hanging over the markets... #Mtgox, Germany, US Gov...
I was fairly young when I found Bitcoin in 2011. Since then, for 13 years, I've #hodl'ed from a few bucks. Holding an asset this volatile for so long is really hard, but I did it, and am still doing it.
But today I sold off 10. It was really hard to do but at my age, I just had to take a little risk off the table. I still hodl a lot x more than 10, but it makes me sad to have to sell any. Any at all.
But $600k will let the rest of the stash ride out the next couple of years.
To the haters, you may have your days, but they are numbered.
To the worthy #hodler's , victory is on its way. Take care of yourselves. I hope this is the worst financial decision of my life. I feel like it truly is.
I hope this doesn't come across as bragging. But anyone who hodls many years will eventually have thus decision to make. Maybe for you it will be easy. Maybe you're a weak hand and will abscond with a measly gain.
Whatever your situation, good luck! I hope it doesn't make you vomit.

So much is written about how Scammers use #Bitcoin. But so little is written about how scammers use the slow legacy financial system to their advantage.
For example, #CFTC has to warn us that if we deposit a check, it could be reversed up to a week after we make the deposit! You can't trust a deposit made into your bank account.
Scammers love the old financial system. They send you a check, ask you to pay someone but you can keep the difference. Then, in a week, the check bounces and you're out the money you sent.
The old financial system is rife with scams. This scam won't work with Bitcoin; if the #BTC is in your wallet, then its YOUR BTC.

#Glassnode seems to think that short timers are pushing the price down. This happens every time we get near ath. They buy at $69k, are elated at 73k, but at 61k, they are freaking out and start listening to the ilk of Peter Schiff. So, take advantage of their inexperience.
Every #Bitcoin bull market has some draw down. Bitcoin is for innovators, users, and long term hodler's. Its not for leverage or momentum trading, imo.
To all you short timers who bought high and are now selling low, thank you for your service. Try again later, maybe in the 80K range.

Yeah, I figured. I had an issue like this in 2013 when I onboarded my Bitcoin into the US tax system. Thousands and thousands of bot transactions.... There was that awkward time when #Bitcoin went from being a fun toy to serious money. But then 'like kind' rules changed, and all that bullshit hit. So my tax advisor and I made the best reasonable guess we could, paid the damn taxes, and set out on the audit time journey to put distance between me and that tax return. Yes, there are services that will suck in all of your transaction data and either kick out a number or barf, but a lot of that was lost on exitscam and hacked centralized exchanges. I tried a couple of those services with the data I had, and it mostly just barfed on the number of transactions.

Vanguard will not give their customers access to #Bitcoin #ETF's. Meanwhile Vanguard is the 3rd largest investor in #MSTR. The beauty of Microstrategy is that its a stealth Bitcoin ETF. Even Vanguard can get "sorry not sorry" exposure to #BTC.

This weekend is a perfect example why #Bitcoin etf's are not as good as owning real #BTC. The price drops to $61K and you can't BTFD with a Bitcoin #ETF.
Next weekend when Bitcoin is $100K, you won't be able to sell into the pump. Not that you should.
There is no ETF equivalent for unmediated, 24/7 true Bitcoin in your own wallet.

We dont yet know exactly who the buyers are of #Bitcoin ETFs. But I suspect there will be a large percentage of long term "retail" hodlers, like me, who were happy to be able to suddenly invest tax advantaged/restricted savings (IRA, Roth IRA, 403B, 401K, Simple IRA, etc). This money had been effectively banned from Bitcoin. Those of us who know #BTC were first into these ETFs, and with some institutions. Full retail investing likely hasn't even arrived yet, imo.

FTX, MtGox, GBTC, miners, all dumping. This is going to last awhile. Of course its gonna sink the price in short term. Yet, ETF's have already netted 30,000 #Bitcoin, after subtracting GBTC outflows.
Just give the market time to flush this out. Give the ETFs time to ramp up. ERly results are encouraging.
