I Discovered Why Bitcoin is the Best Asset Ever

[@philfortner1805]

Once someone truly understands Bitcoin they realize they can never have enough. There is no second best.

I seem to be always learning...

[@eman7282]

I understand BTC - it follows NASDAQ

[@rubr949]

Sooo tell us..what needs the Bitcoin price and block subsidy need to be in 2036 so miners still will be in profit so they can protect the network. If they get paid enough and quit, there will be no more network. The only answer you get is. " It will go up"

[@BigHotSauceBoss69]

@@rubr949 allow the free market of competition and demand to do its thing. that's the point. it's freedom money. it will be adopted or die

[@purelifebison1]

As the price increases, so does the incentive for the miners. As the price decreases, the mining difficulty of bitcoin decreases, thus making bitcoin production easier. This all happens as the supply of btc decreases over time. Hence price goes up

[@charlesmiller6281]

I’m 66, stacked gold 20 years, started stacking sats early (mtgox) lost some, sold some, mined some. So you can teach an old boomer new tricks. A few years ago became convinced it is the future of money. The apex asset as Saylor says. Sold all my gold and silver for bitcoin. Better in one year than gold in 30. In all that time, trying to orange pill hundreds (from before orange pill was even a thing) it got through to maybe two. We are still so unbelievably early.

"I think if you approach it as a new method of payment, you miss it. It's a new unit of account." Great explanation by uncle Freddie. Friends know that I know about Bitcoin start asking me my takes on other Crypto's. I try to tell them that other Crypto's are trying to solve other problems. They're not trying to BE money. I get blank stares as their brain hits a 404 error.

Hi Guys, I just turned 77 this year and have two small businesses here in northern Canada. About 75% of my wealth is in Bitcoin. I first started buying about 12 yeqars ago. It has been one hellava educational, interesting and exciting journey.

My favorite quote is "Maybe you say: Fred, I kind of 10% believe you. Fred: Okay, great. Well, 10% is probably enough." I certainly have a higher conviction that there are serious issues with the US financial system and its future. However, I am not in a position to place a larger bet that Bitcoin is the winner so ~5-10% is where I've been.

I agree with Fred at least 70% BTC 30 % something else because when you need the $ if BTC you have to sell . First if you hold less than a year tax 50% in Australia and the price of BTC maybe not high at the time? You have no choice but sale for the need. So 30% for something else so you can get access easier without loosing the money.

Bitcoin is where the conceptual overides the tangible

[@sphisix]

49:15 I would assume Fred should know that you don't really hold Bitcoin. Wonder why he chooses to use those words since they make him sound like he is the one that doesn't understand. The concept of "holding" bitcoin is different in a lot of ways and is potentially even more secure. The only thing you depend on is the network's existance and remembering the information. Its like you know where the treasure is burried at and how to open it, and without the information it is impossible to do so. In a way its more secure than holding gold because you cannot steal it, on the other hand you can always access the burried treasure and move it wherever, whereas gold you cannot. Existance of bitcoin is different in every way and its important to be clear communicating how so. As long as we don't, people will stay ignorant and run away.
