Its because now everyone uses custodians so known exchange addresses are smaller. There is zero chance normal exchange users have suddenly decided to pull their coins into self custody. 😂

Hmmm. But if you owned the Bitcoin in the IRA, then you wouldn't need to sell it, it would just keep appreciating tax free. No need to sell it until you are 72(I think), and even then you only need to sell a small chunk.

Say what? It is quite clear Trump has already seen the Q1 GDP numbers. They get released next week. I suspect they show slight negative or perhaps flat.
He needs cheap money to refinance and 'grow' the economy. However, with higher prices an issue from tarrifs, Powell isn't budging. I'm not sure what you are referencing?

I have no problem with comparing fiat numbers. I have a problem with purposefully picking the lowest point of any time for monero and going from there.
I could have just as easily said since Jan 1 2018, Bitcoin is up 5x, and monero is 50% lower.(Didn't look, just roughly).
Over the past 7 years, monero hit it's high as all coins do in both BTC terms and fiat. Ever since, it is down in fiat, and trending towards zero in BTC terms.
I'm not getting into a xmr vs BTC debate here, just pointing out the starting points.

Not really, no.
The price of gold was fixed at one rate, and most gold was held by America(75% of the global supply) until 1971. A rate they was used by nearly ever developed country for exchange and trade. You couldn't really just go to your gold guy like you can now. 90% of all gold was custodial until the mid 60s.

2025-04-18 16:57:10

I don't really understand this chart. You couldn't buy gold in active and properly priced us markets until 71. The market price was fixed. What is this based on? In the early days?

First off, fiat currencies don't appreciate, they only depreciate.
2nd, the fundamentals of Bitcoin don't change if you save in bitcoin either. So I'm not sure what you are talking about?
Much like people save and spend dollars, if Bitcoin is to be successful, people will save and spend Bitcoin.
The reason is quite simple:
By saving in Bitcoin, your purchasing power increases.
By spending Bitcoin, you are able to transact in ways you cannot do with dollars. (Fast Settlement, hard to censor, etc ..).

2025-04-17 15:05:17

- reply

The amount of Bitcoin it takes to buy an ounce of gold will trend towards zero over time.
I am not sure why you are confused at the idea? It has been happening and will continue to happen as more and more gold is mined and less and less Bitcoin is mined.

Why can't it be both? People have savings accounts in a bank. They have a checking account. When you need or want to buy something bigger, you can move money from the savings.

That's because gold is a horrendous medium of exchange. It isn't practical to do so in any way. Bitcoin is both. And yes, there is a constant struggle and fight within Bitcoin as to which it is.

2025-04-16 15:07:27

- reply

To make it simpler, yes. Gold is priced in dollars globally. So you have to also then use dollars for Bitcoin.
Only if/when gold gets priced in Bitcoin in global markets can you compare without the 3rd party dollars.

2025-04-16 14:00:29

- reply

If Bitcoin goes to $1M and gold continues it's growth rate to $5K in a decade, gold will be at .005. that's trending towards zero.
It will never hit zero.
You are free to say gold is going down, but that doesn't cover it.

2025-04-16 13:56:37

Yes. Towards zero.

2025-04-16 12:59:53

It’s a fact. Much like every shitcoin. As long as there is at least one holder, they can’t go to zero ever. They just keep trending that way into smaller and smaller decimals.

That doesn't mean anything.
I asked you twice what you want to bet and the terms.
How about:
No later than the end of this year, M2 will be higher than it ever has been both globally and in the US, and the fed balance sheet will be at least 3% higher than today.
If it hits these at any time during the next 8 months, I win.

A few ways:
Roughly 10% of all mortgages are adjustable rates
Insurance products and companies are largely based around the bond markets. Insurance rates will continue to go upwards.
Continuing:
I should also include renters rent and prospective home buyers as well.
Finally:
Nevermind the pensions and retirement products that get wrecked when rates climb. Social security owns trillions in treasuries that are at very low rates. The trust has been and will continue to take a plunge.
Finally, along the printing line, Trump has already floated some food/farmer help to juice the markets. That would be new money alongside his few hundred billion in defense spending increases he wants.
The money printer goes better.

2025-04-13 01:19:03

#ICP among others are up 2.3% today.
The question I have is why??? Look at this USD chart. The Bitcoin chart looks worse. Who would buy this? And for what?

The building will be used for storage. Employees will still come and go. Insurance savings will be minimal, but some.
Trash is forced fixed cost as is water/sewer in the complex.
Electricity will be cut down to minimal cost, however they didn't have high use previously as their is a landlord credit given with the lease. Some savings here.
For sure the internet bill is gone.
I am completely ballparking as I do not have access to their insurance, full electric, or internet cost.
If I am wrong, ok.
Gotta go. Peace.

Of course not. It may save $200 per month. That's likely high.

2025-04-12 15:37:20

- reply

Sorry, I wasn't clear. There is no dispute on the amount. The amount is accurate as best as I can tell from both the landlord and federal employees. The timeline and claiming it is being saved is the issue. By the time the lease is up, the Dems will have taken back the house and Senate, and if large enough, could freeze everything in the savings.

2025-04-12 15:34:48

- reply

Tell you what. I'll change my original note:
I am very skeptical of DOGE's savings claims. The reason I am skeptical to them being as high being as high as their website claims to be saving money from a local federal office that is near me is not actually closing for 1.5-2 years due to a costly lease termination requirement. The staff will however move to a close by office. So I suppose there will be some electricity and internet savings.
Because of this local claim, while possible, I find it hard to believe this is the only listed savings on the DOGE website that isn't completely accurate.
Better? 😉

2025-04-12 15:24:48

- reply

Yes, a conversation.
It's not a debate if neither side can prove their opinion to be true, nor do I care to sway you. It's just chatting as normal people do. In this case it is impossible to sway one side or the other using data, since the data doesn't exist. Or at least normies do not have access to it. All we have is a partisan website with random shit on it that may or may not be true.

2025-04-12 15:13:49

Debating what? It's my opinion.
You have yours. Neither of us have access to government inside documents that show whether the doge website is complete bs or is on track to actually save 200B.

2025-04-12 15:09:55

Yes, my opinion is 95% of doge is contracts that dont exist, leases that can't save money for a while and BS.
So? I didn't say you must change your mind here is why.
You are free to believe in villain Elon, I am free to not.
The fact that only 4k government jobs were lost in March is telling though, isn't it? When supposedly a a hundred thousand had been fired.

I completely disagree.
Robots should do everything. The money should be sound. We shouldn't have to work more than a few hours per week(unless you want to) as purchasing power skyrockets from tech and productivity.

It's a fun meme, but if global liquidity markets actually freeze worse than 2008, lending stops, trade and shipping stops, banks halt withdrawals, payroll companies have no money, businesses can't pay rent, people lose jobs and home, groceries have less food, and on and on.
The purchasing power of Bitcoin would drop tremendously as people need other currencies to buy things they need and to just stay afloat. Since as you say, they saved in it.
In the future, yes. On 2025? No.

I realize it's a minor point, as your circle is correct, but your starting point is wrong.
The US buys goods from China is actually the starting point. The excess dollars created by the US buying their products causes them to buy us land, equities, energy, us goods, and of course treasuries.
China doesn't just have a bunch of dollars randomly to buy treasuries they can't create them out of thin air like the fed does.

I have a USFS branch office in my town that was on the cut list from Doge. The website said savings of 60k per year. The kicker? The lease goes for another 2 years, and the employees are staying on anyways. It's a scam. A lie.
All of these cutes will be eaten up by Trump's Tariffs causing major trade disruptions, less US global involvement and his defense increases.
Also, his new budget plan talks about cutting NASA, which I did NOT have on my Bingo card! Elon is pissed.

Yes, they absolutely need the government.

Lol. The federal reserve isn't company. It is a quasi government arm that is privately owned and partially privately run where all profits go back to the Treasury.
But if you want to include them, ok.
What does the federal reserve need to continue operating? The government...they need the federal reserve act of 1913, aka, a law, to continue operating. Without it they shutdown. Without the government, nobody would listen or use them.

Someone is forcing you to buy a product? In what world? I don't follow.
Nobody buys a product they don't get value from.
Monopolies don't exist in free markets. They can only exists due to government. Arguing for more government intervention in trade and this nonsense will form new monopolies as only they will be
Currently, in the global marketplace I can go to China(or Alibaba), make connections, have something manufactured, and sell it on Amazon.
If I make a product people want at a price that is fair, they will buy it.
This cannot happen with 140% tariffs, asost margins are nowhere near this for small sellers. All they will happen is encourage larger players with large legal and trade teams, linguistic translators to go in and fill the void by skirting rules, moving to Cambodia, etc.. the government just forced the small American business to fail and allowed a new monopoly to fill the void

Because interjecting into people's commerce and trade always leads to encouraging this type of government interruption and stoppage. You are on essence trying to change another's buying habits and wanting the governments help in this.

Allowing people to freely for what they wish trade harms nobody and in fact helps.
