Em menos de 24h, mostra o horário da publicação.. cards mais antigos mostram dia e mês.

Também adicionei um negócio ali na direita para mostrar visualmente quão importante uma notícia pode ser (em vez de mostrar somente o número de fontes).

Também adicionei essas informações nos cards com imagens:





Vou testar aqui se é fácil implementar e como ficaria a exibição.. se ela conseguir isolar um card com uma URL sem mostrar os outros e sem precisar ficar criando página, será ótimo.

This didn't take long and there's a new entry, even of quite similar size, that came in yesterday late afternoon (UTC)..


Current balance at time of this post according to combo(PubKey of Genesis block's coinbase) descriptor, including the unspendable 50BTC of coinbase tx: 107.66278979BTC (includes pending 4218sats waiting for confirmation, the difference (0.07793824BTC) to previous post's value and newcomer transactions are smaller dust wastes and often a few larger ones that just don't make it into the table).

This may differ slightly from what mempool.space or bitcoindata.science displays because the combo() descriptor^{see below} accounts for all address types (except Taproot, IIRC).

Such issue also happen on other country with different goods. For example, https://www.techspot.com/news/113694-amazon-seller-sends-1400-rtx-5080-customer-cheap.html shows a buyer get a mug with fake instruction/message, when he supposed to receives computer GPU. It's worse than not checking properly.


But IMO people who choose to buy from authorized reseller rather than official online shop unlikely to buy from official physical shop.

Você não acha que comprar esse "ouro tokenizado" não é o mesmo que comprar "bitcoin falso"? A mesma crítica que faziamos no passado para os bancos que vendiam Bitoin sem dar acesso à wallet e nem mesmo permitir sacar Bitcoin para carteira auto-custodiada.
Claro... ali dizem que é lastreado com "barras físicas custodiadas em cofres na Suíça", mas quem garante?

Não me leve totalmente a sério, mas vejamos só como sedemos fácil nos últimos anos.

The thing is if a reseller is listed under the company’s list of resellers should we now call this resellers third party resellers. Personally I feel like with authorization of the company and even have them on site as official resellers it’s simply like this is our store and this is what most people might have looked into. I still don’t want to put this ledger loss on victims buying from resellers most would have bought because of the company’s authorization.

Last I check CryptoBillis hasn’t been removed on the ledger site as an authorized reseller, that explains to you this ledger team how they are not even proactive

I disagree. You cannot exclude the possibility of dishonest employee(s) tampering with devices. Even if that's not the case, manufacturers do not deliver themselves. Whoever collects parcels from them (to be sent out to buyers) probably knows what kind of product they are dealing with. It doesn't take much to replace a legit device in a package with a tampered one.

And it's definitely not just a case of one "shady" reseller.
The scale of the incident seems to be much greater than initially reported. Mediamarkt (a major European electronics retailer) today decided to pull out Ledger wallets after there have been reports of people finding implants in them (bought in Mediamarkt stores at different locations):

Even our good friend Mak Karpeles is reporting on finding a spying chip on a Ledger wallet bought at Singapore airport:

I'm sure after the recent events that happened to Ledger, many people will become paranoid about buying any wallet from a third party.

Regarding buying on Amazon, can you be sure that it is genuine from a company like Trezor directly? I myself have never bought via Amazon, because I think Amazon is like a Marketplace where the seller is another party (not from the wallet company itself).

Around 2017, I only bought once from the Trezor website, namely Trezor One and until now it has been used without any problems.

Congratulations to AHOYBRAUSE and bitmover on the win! 🎉

The match ended with a 2:1 victory for Arsenal, with the first goal scored in the 55th minute. Thank you to everyone who took part, shared their predictions, and stayed with us. There are more exciting matches and new winners ahead!⚽️

For starters, you shouldn't be using anything that is related with Bitcoin and is closed-source. Especially now that AI can decompile code easily, and find vulnerabilities that cannot even be reported. Secondly, yes, you shouldn't consider any of those hardware wallets panacea.

If resellers can modify hardware components of the device so easily, then shouldn't Ledger warn the users about potential resellers that might turn out to be malicious? Or not engage in reselling their devices in the first place, and only purchase them at their own e-shop?

Amazon is not so trusted because you can return the package and the warehouse does not check everything properly

Did you not see cases in Brazil of people buying games or phones and receiving an empty box? Just because amazon is a big company it does not mean they are safe from criminals, and if the hardware wallet can be bought and returned to be reselled you can not trust it definitely

I would only buy from the Trezor store and ask if it is not a returned package to be sure

This is a fun idea, especially since people have different definitions of financial freedom. For some, $800k is already enough, while others might still feel they need more. I think adding a DCA calculator would make the tool even more useful because it would let people compare their current strategy with different future scenarios. Of course, the projections are only estimates, but it's a good way to think about long-term goals.

Yes.  Based on your inputs of 3% for the inflation rate and also the 30% fixed premium of the spot price above the 200-WMA (which are the default settings) you are describing the spot price prediction for each of those years.

Of course, as you might know, I am more comfortable with attempting to predict the 200-WMA, yet I am giving a ballpark idea to proclaim that BTC's spot price tends to spend most of its time 30% or more above the 200-WMA, yet the 200-WMA is the grounding for the premium that it put upon it to arrive at a ballpark idea of what spot price might be around each of those times.


I don't want any other versions (or variations or percentages above mine or below mine), since variations will already cause more confusion than what already potentially exists in changing the inflation rate or even changing the spot price premium from fixed (30%) to cyclical.  It is already potentially confusing with enough variables already contained therein without losing the message.. and at the same time, guys can come up with their own models based on their own premise (or some percentage of my numbers) or to figure out their own discount or premium above or below my projected numbers/percentages.

I will concede that there could be a button (a separate self-selecting tab) that would allow for projecting outcomes above or below my numbers (since there is a compounding effect that would end up happening based on any projection change that might be selected), but I tend to think that an addition of such a tab would be problematic in terms of adding to confusion to the outcomes and even in terms of realizing if they were on my tab or some variation of my tab .. and yeah of course, even if it were to have it has its own completely separate tab that says above or below JJG model there could be confusion in regards to their incorporating some variation of my own projections versus just sticking with my projections and working with the presumptions contained therein as they already exist...   

And, also, I might suggest that when I created my original tables, they did not have the ability to put an inflation rate in the projections, which I will concede the inclusion of the adjustable inflation rate allows for more customization, yet at the same time, the inflation percentage might also already allow the creation of a certain amount of acceptable variance that the user can already customize to their preferences.

You are correct that guys might end up having only around 10% or 20% of their total income that fits into the category of discretionary income, which, like you said, is the money that is remaining after all of the basic expenses have been accounted.  In your example, you give 4 categories in regards to how discretionary funds could be used, yet you are really ONLY providing 2 categories (invest & save) and skipping one category (discretionary consumption).  

You mention emergency fund, reserve and financial cushion, and all three of those are forms of savings.  They only count as 1 category, even though you wrote them down as three categories.

You totally skipped mentioning discretionary consumption. Do you believe that discretionary consumption is not necessary? or maybe you don't know the difference between discretionary consumption and basic consumption and you think that they are the same?  Guys have to make sure that they know the difference between basic consumption and discretionary consumption, and surely even within basic consumption, sometimes guys will include some items or some extra costs that are really a part of discretionary consumption but they count it as if it were basic consumption.

Don't get me wrong. You can do whatever you like, yet if you are not really understanding the categories and/or you are counting them wrongly, then you are likely losing out on some ways that you could get more value from better understanding and applying the categories to your personal circumstances.


You are communicating this portion badly too.  There is an expression that applies to investing and trading, which is don't invest/trade any more than you can afford to lose.  The idea is that you are using money that you do not need for your basic expenses and also money that you are not emotionally attached to, so that your emotions should not be getting in the way of whether you profit or not from the money that you are using.

Of course, no one wants to lose money, yet at the same time, when you invest into bitcoin, you may well be investing for 4-10 years or longer, and you may well have to go through extensive periods of great volatility and even periods in which your coins and/or storage of your bitcoin could be attacked.  Even if you take all kinds of precautions with your bitcoin investment, you cannot have 100% confidence that you won't end up completely losing 100% of your investment due to your own execution or due to some external factors.  There is one thing that if you were to consume with the money that you put into bitcoin right away, you would get the value of that consumption whether if that consumption item were to hold its value or not (such as consuming an ice cream cone or buying a car, there are differences).  Also, if you were to save the money in dollars rather than investing it into bitcoin, you would have the cash value of that money, whether you recognize that the cash is ongoingly losing its purchasing power, if you had chose to hold the money in cash rather than buying bitcoin with it, you would have the nominal cash value whether you ended up using it within a short time later, such as within a week, month or a couple of months or if you ended up using it 1-2 years or longer down the road you would have that nominal value, even if the nominal value might not have had been well preserved in purchasing power.


I have a hard time appreciating the difference between the ideas of having a target, plan, goals and/or other descriptors that might attempt to specify where a guy might want to go, how he might get there and perhaps various ways of attempting to measure progress along the way.

It is quite likely in the beginning a guy's goals and plans will either lack specifics and/or the specifics might ONLY be loosely tethered to reality.   And, surely the longer that the guy may be working directionally towards "improving his financial circumstances" then the more capable he may well be able to become about the various milestones that he might want to reach along the way and even more particular about his end-point goals - even though surely there also could develop quite substantive ways in which end goals might change through the years.


Of course, I cannot speak for I_Anime, yet I can acknowledge that he was referring to tools that bitmover and I have created in terms of getting help in terms of figuring out goals and perhaps even helping to think about bitcoin accumulation strategies.  In terms of bitcoin accumulation, I frequently talk about investing in bitcoin ways that are as aggressive as guys are able to be without overdoing it, and aggressiveness does not have to do with timing the market, yet abilities to be aggressive likely relates to having good senses about your own cashflow management and to know how much of your discretionary funds that you want to allocate towards buying bitcoin.  

I am not really sure how well the tools that bitmover and I have created help with cashflow management, even though they likely help with setting goals and even managing bitcoin holdings once there might be considerations of sustainable withdrawal, for example, so surely there is a bit of subjectiveness in determining aggressiveness in bitcoin accumulation and it does not necessarily have to do with trying to time the market.  Personally, I tend to think that guys who try to time the market and hold back value in order to attempt to buy on dips are tending to be less aggressive than guys who are trying to DCA buy their BTC in regular, persistent and consistent ways.


Your description is quite confusing @Sunshine1525, including your using terms incorrectly and in confusing ways.

Maybe I can attempt to clarify?

Discretionary funds are what is remaining from a guy's income after he has accounted for all of his expenses.  

With his discretionary funds, the guy can choose to invest, save and/or discretionarily consume.

Within the savings category there are back up funds, which include emergency funds and reserve funds.  

Emergency funds are considered to be money that is being saved to be used for basic expenses in circumstances that income might go down and/or expenses go up.  Emergency funds tend to be the last amount of cash that would be available prior to having to dip into bitcoin.

Reserve funds are flexible and can be used for anything including but not limited to buying dips, emergencies, basic needs or discretionary wants, saving up to buy a bicycle for your kid, etc etc.  Reserve funds would likely be exhausted before emergency funds.

If you do not use the terms correctly, then you may well be confused about the ideas, and you may well be confusing others when you are describing what you are doing or what you plan to do.


Discretionary income is used to invest, save and/or discretionarily consume.

How come so many guys fail/refuse to account for discretionary consumption?  Do you know the difference between discretionary consumption and other consumption (such as basic consumption)?  Do you think that you do not need to account for discretionary consumption?

Sure, discretionary consumption can be low or even close to zero, and almost no one has zero discretionary consumption, even a monk.


Why do there need to be limits?  Reserve funds are built from discretionary funds which means you can use it however you like.  Yeah, if you use up all of your reserve funds then you won't have any more back up funds except your emergency funds, and you might put yourself in a pickle.. so you have to figure out how to use good judgement.


It is your choice.  Do whatever the fuck you want with it, and yeah, if it is limited in its amount, you are going to be fucked if you use it all up.


You know what the funds are for, so why keep going over it.  The devil is in the details of your own specific application.


Sure.  The less money you have, the fewer options you have, so you have to figure out how to manage that.  


By definition, reserve  funds have flexibility and emergency funds do not.  Each person decides how much value he feels that he needs to keep in each category.


Each of us decides those matters especially when we are dealing with discretionary funds and various funds that we create to support ourselves in terms of whether we are holding the money for basic expenses (generally thought to be emergency funds fitting in that category) and/or for discretionary matters, and reserve funds are kept for discretionary matters, yet reserve funds can also be reassigned to become emergency funds if you make a determination that you need to build and/or maintain more emergency funds.

Na boa, eu acho que todo mundo ganha...
Por mais que a gente venera o trabalho de investigação da PF brasileira (gostemos ou não, eles fazem um bom trabalho quando querem) é sabido também que volta e meia alguém de dentro dá umas mancadas... então deixar essa grana na mão do governo pra custodiar não é nada inteligente.
Se botar na mão de uma empresa privada é o dela que tá na reta, o negócio é mais embaçado... não tem como fazer o dinheiro sumir e ninguém ser punido.

Eu apoio modelos de parceria publico-privado como esses.

I am also conflating personal action and theory, and on an individual level, there is likely a whole hell of a lot of importance in figuring out our own bitcoin allocation in terms of our concerns about present and/or future utility and in light of our own budget and abilities to buy bitcoin as compared with other places that we might choose to put our time, energy and value.

So, why should we give any shits in regards to the extent that some people might be classified as bitcoin maxis or not?  Your desire to distinguish yourself from "bitcoin maxis" seems to show that you still have not figured out the superiority of bitcoin or been able to differentiate that dog from the tail.  

As a hint, the tail does not wag the dog, so it is good to recognize that dynamic in bitcoin, especially if you are going to make sure that you  are personally investing a sufficient amount of time, energy and value into bitcoin rather than getting distracted into irrelevant matters.

Maybe another dynamic is worth highlighting in regards to the increased involvement of larger players in the bitcoin space, including governments, financial institutions and various battles related to self-custody and transacting in bitcoin.  Surely each of us has to figure out the extent to which we might choose to involve ourself in self-custody of bitcoin versus keeping bitcoin on exchanges versus getting involved in bitcoin derivative products, and sure we cannot deny that those products might end up affecting our own choices and even how many options that we might have and the ways that we might transact in bitcoin.

For sure, we cannot completely ignore the various ways that bitcoin is being used based on changes in the players in the space, even though there is likely ongoing value to making sure that we are holding some amount of our value in self-custodian kinds of ways, even though surely there are guys (perhaps including yourself?) who are also getting involved in bitcoin derivative products or otherwise failing/refusing to sufficiently distinguish between self-custody bitcoin and various bitcoin third-party and/or derivative products.


To the extent that it matters, do think that you understand bitcoin better than me?  You proclaimed that you had removed yourself from bitcoin several times in the years, and you seem to be having difficulties distinguishing bitcoin from crypto.

Sure, you can do what you like, and you can prioritize what you like, yet I doubt that there is a whole hell-of-a-lot of value that comes in either getting distracted into shitcoins (or other crypto products) or wanting to convolute a potential bitcoin discussion into crypto (perhaps by denigrating bitcoin maxis and not really understanding the value of bitcoin and/or bitcoin first perspectives).

There surely guys who believe that there might be some value in diversifying their finances and their focus, and surely you can look through quite a few of my posts/threads in which I argue that there tends to be quite a bit of value in focusing on bitcoin first and investing into bitcoin first, so in that regard, finances and focus would be on bitcoin and cash until the holdings are built up to a certain acceptable value such as investing 1-2 years of income (or perhaps expenses) into bitcoin, while at the same time building up back up funds that are kept in cash, so perhaps a deciding factor in diversification may well be the build up in cash rather than the build up in bitcoin, even though surely many times it will take guys quite a long time to build up their networth to even relatively minor levels of 3-6 months or more of their expenses in a combination bitcoin, cash and any other places that they might hold value.

Of course, there is a lot of discretion in terms of how to build wealth that also relates to the extent to which a person might be starting from zero or even starting from low amounts of discretionary income (and of course discretionary funds are needed to invest at all, since if there are no discretionary funds then buying bitcoin ends up being trading and/or gambling rather than investing to the extent that you even know the difference). So, then the more resources a person has, then the more options that they have, yet many times, we should not be presuming that average bitcoin newbies are starting out with much if any resources beyond perhaps having discretionary income, and yeah, if they have more resources, then that factor helps them out to have more options in regards to whether to allocate to bitcoin and if so how much to allocate to bitcoin versus other places that they might chose to allocate their time, energy and value.


Of course, guys can do whatever, they like.  I tend to recommend that guys do not get involved at all in any other projects in the beginning of their building their investment in bitcoin, yet surely we cannot take guys away from their inclinations to trade, gamble or to get involved in shitcoins, which surely the trade/gamble angle can be seen from your HODL post, yet at the same time, there is no reason to believe that you are also not inclined to get distracted into shitcoins, so in that regard, I have frequently suggested that guys do not put anymore than 10% of the size of their bitcoin investment into shitcoins and/or trading/gambling... and, yeah guys are going to do what they like, yet if they might consider limiting their exposure to nonsense then they may well be able to better able focus their time, energy and value into bitcoin rather than inferior products and/or inferior approaches...so yeah, I suppose my frequent concession of up to 10% of the size of the bitcoin investment in shitcoins, trading/gambling remains a bit of an acknowledgment that guys might have difficulties in not getting distracted away from bitcoin.


It seems quite strange that you are ongoingly distracted by alts, since 1) there are not very many alts that would have had actually outperformed bitcoin, whether we are referring to starting in 2013 or even 2016/2017 as our starting date, and 2) it seems quite amazing that you feel that you would have had to have needed to outperform bitcoin, especially if you had been able to do most of your bitcoin accumulation in those earlier years, such as 2013 or even if you had done most of your bitcoin accumulation prior to 2017... Of course, the earlier that you had built up your bitcoin holdings the better, even though even longer and drug out bitcoin accumulation still would have ended up doing well for guys who had gotten involved in bitcoin early and stayed focused on bitcoin rather than playing the lottery in some kind of an attempt to figure out which shitcoin (or other project) happens to be less shitty than the overwhelming majority of shitcoins and/or shitcoin-related projects.
 

I am glad that you appreciate bitcoin, since if it were not for bitcoin, the other various shitcoin (or what you like to call it, "crypto") would not even exist in any kinds of a form or format that would have much if any value.  Bitcoin brings value to the whole space in terms of bitcoin having had invented, introduced, discovered a kind of paradigm shifting way of interacting with the world - that had not existed prior to bitcoin,.. and yeah, to repeat my earlier point, bitcoin happens to be the dog, and you seem to ongoingly have difficulties appreciating/recognizing doggie bitcoin (aka king daddy or king doggie).
 

At least you seem to recognize bitcoin as the source of value, even if you seem to ongoingly be distracted by derivatives, which likely has contributed to a lot of underperformance of your own holdings, even if seem to want to insinuate that there are some potential greater values in investing in and/or HODLing derivative products rather than bitcoin itself.

I am not going to deny that there are a lot of folks who are able to and who also have been able to benefit from number go up technology (or price exposure to bitcoin) that comes from holding bitcoin derivative products, and yeah, there are ways to benefit from derivative products, even though bitcoin would not have any value if there weren't abilities to hold and transact in bitcoin directly..and yeah on an individual level guys can choose not to hold and transact in bitcoin directly because they might even get some side bribes (such as tax advantages, yield, not being harassed, etc etc by holding paper rather than real bitcoin)....

and of course, we do not have to agree since part of the benefit of a forum like this is that we can interchange ideas and each of us can figure out our own ways of balancing what we are going to do or how we are going to talk about matters, and for sure, some guys will end up being more right than others and some guys will end up tailoring their own balances better to their own situations than others, and we are not always going to know the variation of performance between guys or even accurately assessing our own performance as compared with what it could have had been or should have had been might be challenging for some guys.  

No matter what, a certain quantity of mistakes will be made, and some guys will figure out and adjust better to their mistakes than others.


You (@KingsDen) seem to be presuming that OGs ended up getting their bitcoin versus "crypto" matters right and that they were able to hang onto a sufficient amount of their bitcoin (to the extent that they had any and they were not mixing up bitcoin and shitcoins) so that their various fuck ups along the way did not end up contributing to their continuing to fuck up, over and over and over, rather than learning from their mistakes.

For sure, we can grant that the guys who got into bitcoin early could have had fucked up in very significant ways and still ended up performing quite well in their bitcoin performance as long as they still ended up buying and/or HODLing bitcoin.  We cannot presume that the mere assertion that guys might have had made that they accumulated and/or held their bitcoin that their assertions about what they supposedly did is true and/or that they were able to advance out of their bitcoin accumulation phase and into either maintenance phase or some other variation of having enough or more than enough bitcoin..

because surely we can look back historically and even use some BTC DCA tools in order to verify what even some modest and persistent bitcoin accumulation could have had accomplished, yet frequently so many guys, do not have bitcoin holdings or wealth that are equivalent to what some kind of a modest DCA accumulation approach would have had accomplished.

There are plenty of OG bitcoiners who have not gotten out of their accumulation phase and who even seem to be quite early in their accumulation phase, and sure we cannot really know for sure about the reasons in terms of whether there are objectively problematic issues or merely definitional issues.

Take even a very modest bitcoin accumulation approach of $50 per week that GameKyuubi could have had begun on the day of his famous HODL post.  $33.5k would have had been invested, and nearly 23 BTC would have had been accumulated.  Admittedly most of the bitcoin would have had been accumulated in the first few years, but still accumulating 23 BTC over nearly 13 years would be a quite great place to be, and I doubt that GameKyuubi has any ways to show that he did better from whatever fucking around that he had been doing with shitcoins over the years, unless maybe he launched some shitcoin that he could try to take advantage of his fame that may or may not end up working out for him.. so surely there can be advantages in ongoing BTC accumulation, even if earlier bitcoin guys might not have ended up lump summing into bitcoin.


Haven't you been able to notice that GameKyuubi had not really practiced accumulate HODL over the years, which would have had been quite great for him financially (and probably psychologically too) if he had ended up practicing it rather than merely posting about the idea of it.

Hahaha. You seem to even be afraid with the double chance option you went for. If you want big cash from Jacks, you would have go all out I pick 2 with the good old for Bayern (2:60+). Bayern has been on unbeating for like 13 matches and still favoured to win. I guess you don't want to fully stick your neck out, you just want to play safe. Well it is likely that Bayern won't lose tomorrow.

Added, thanks!

People always can change their mindset and practice. Firstly they must realize Bitcoin strength and advantage against fiat currencies, government bonds, and other traditional investment assets in both purchasing power and ROIs over a long term. Then, they must know that investment is profitable and safer than trading. Lastly, they must figure out which investment strategies are safest and best.

Then they can start investment with Bitcoin and Dollar Cost Averaging strategy that does not require them to find market bottoms or ATHs.
Dollar Cost Averaging with costavg.com include exchange fee.

Yeah that's probably the biggest concern. Like you don't know who you are dealing with. He may be a great dude with the same problem as you: He was an early adopter and got some coins that do not come from your average CEX, meaning that he may be handling you coins with some AML risk, and then you go and deposit these coins in a CEX and you have a problem, even tho none of you did nothing wrong. Or even if you don't deposit them in a CEX, the bank or taxman may ask for source of funds. It's one of those things. I don't really see a solution, the moment you interact with fiat interfaces you assume so much risk unless everything is ridiculously traced to the point Bitcoin becomes unusable.

Congratulations for still being here, yet I think that there is an ongoing lesson that involves ongoing hesitation instead of action, and perhaps Gamekyuubi suffered from that same thing around the time of his drunken post from 13 years ago, and also he likely suffered from such ongoing hesitation since I doubt that he really became both a HODLer and an accumulator in a meaningful and material way... and yeah, ONLY he will really know the extent to which his ongoing hesitation had remained an issue.


For sure bitcoinlandia is the land of the free, and there have been and continue to be consequences for guys who fail/refuse to sufficiently and adequately stack bitcoin, even when they have had opportunities over the years... and for sure the longer that a guy had been in bitcoin, the more he could have had gotten away with being whimpy in his bitcoin accumulation and still profitted quite well, even from such whimpiness.

Since about March 2020, I have ongoingly asserted that guys need to purposefully be more aggressive than they had been in the past, and even suggesting that it takes more money to get similar results, yet at the same time, guys are going to do what they are going to do in terms of the level of their chosen aggressiveness, and level of chosen aggressiveness is a choice too.. a choice that has consequences, especially if looking 2-3 cycles into the future.


Even though you sound a wee bit lost @JaanusRaim, you are pointing out a likely dilemma that Gamekyuubi and others had gone through around that time, since it tends to be hard as fuck to both hold and to continue to buy for any guys who started to buy at the top.

My own history in bitcoin starts with my buying at November/December 2013 top, which perhaps is part of the reason why I suggest that the solution in stacking and actually profiting when starting at or near the top is continuing to buy... which most likely is not what Gamekyuubi, since he largely disappeared from the forum for many years.

None the less, we can look back and see that even a relatively mild investment amount of $50 per week starting in December 2013 would have resulted in about $33.6k, invested and a bitcoin stash of more than 23 bitcoin... but yeah, it pays to have will power, and so many guys started to buy bitcoin in and around 2013 but they did not stick with it.  Many of them got shaken out in 2014 and 2015, and maybe they were delusional at various times after 2013 - even though over and over there had been chances to make up for their having had drifted into delusion.. and so even guys who might have had waited to get started until 2017, they might have had still been able to recover from their having had gone through a slow start.

So maybe a guy who started investing in bitcoin in 2017 might have had to have had invested around $200 per week and invested in the ballpark of $100k or more in order to still get close to 11 bitcoin, yet it was still doable.  For sure not a bad place to be.  $100k invested and nearly 11 BTC. Many guys would be quite happy in being with that kind of a bitcoin stack size.

These days, no coiners and low coiners should still be investing, yet even if they invest $500 per week, they still might not be able to accumulate 1 bitcoin in the next 10-ish years... so $500 per week would be $25k per year and $250k after 10 years, and it may or may not be possible for bitcoin to average less than $250k in the next 10 years.. so there could be a bit of a struggle to get to 1 bitcoin, even for a guy who is willing to start right now with $500 per week and to continue for 10 years at $500 per week.


For sure a price curve that is less steep, yet I doubt that a less steep price curve justifies not getting started buying bitcoin.


Of course, you @JaanusRaim seem distracted, like you (as a shitcoiner) is asking another shitcoiner how shitcoins are going to perform in the coming years.  Great example of a lack of focus.. but hey, you do you.


It is not easy to not get sucked into shitcoins and/or trading.  I am not going to deny that, especially for many guys who likely come to bitcoin with a pre-existing gambling mindset.

Thanks — we'll keep the "reminder" label on posts like that going forward.



Good suggestion, and bitmover's point about mining fees is exactly the kind of case it would cover. We'll think about adding it to the FAQ.


Thanks for coming back and sharing the full picture — glad both swaps went through in the end.

On fees: most of what you're seeing on a $100 swap is the network fee for the USDT payout. ERC-20 and TRC-20 are expensive networks right now, that's well known, and on small amounts that fixed cost takes a big share. Cheaper networks are in development.

On timing: the 5–15 minute window starts once your deposit has its required network confirmations, not from the moment you hit send. Until we've actually received the coins, the exchange can't happen — that's normal for any service.

On the minimum: we're not planning to lower it. $30 is already as low as we can go — precisely because of network fees, smaller swaps can end up running at a loss.

Appreciate the honest feedback, it helps us see where things need to be explained better.

I had been working on variations of my fuck you status ideas for more than 5 years, and surely when we put together tools and tables and charts and go through various descriptions to attempt to better understand and to apply ideas to facts and to apply ideas to projections, then surely our ideas get better, yet they still may well be difficult to communicate.  Bitmover has surely been helping me with various ideas, and when we put the ideas within a tool, we are forced to bat the ideas around and even to potentially prioritize and to focus on certain angles as compared with other routes that could be taken.  Programming is not my forte either.


In recent times, there surely have been some guys who have been learning how to code, and getting AI to help with code, while at the same time, it also seems that guys who already had coding capabilities are able to use AI to leverage up, and most likely the fuck you status tool had been improved by AI, since nearly 3 years ago after the sustainable withdrawal tool had been implemented Bitmover and I had been running into some obstacles and even creative obstacles - which surely AI can help with some of the brainstorming of potential fixes too.. .but then it likely helps to have a coder in the mix - even though, as you suggest, it may well be possible to get rid of the coder too.. .. which may or may not end up causing some of its own issues.

I think that some of my thoughts about fuck you status and the tool have some aspects that can be tricky for some people to wrap their head around, including my ongoing use of the 200-WMA as a means to valuate BTC holdings and I ongoingly want to valuate BTC holdings using the 200-WMA, even in the sustainable withdrawal too, and it seems that instinctively guys want to battle with that way of bottom valuating BTC holdings, since we all tend to want to valuate our bitcoin based on spot prices including our knowing that any particular buys/sells are going to end up happening at spot price, not 200-WMA values, which surely the tension ongoingly affects dynamics in how we consider our BTC holdings and maybe how we might attempt to plan around managing our BTC holdings (and in the case of fuck you status, planning forward regarding our BTC holdings).  

It seems to me that even with my attempts to project forward the 200-WMA values, there is an ongoing tension in regards to a bit of a lack of mathematical formulation contained in the forward projection percentages, and so I personally think that the forward projections end up losing their ongoing incorporation of the 4-year cycles and perhaps ongoing upward pressures when they are attempted to be put into a formula, since of course, there is likely a presumption of ongoing upward pressure with ongoing diminishing returns coupled with a presumption that the returns (measured in the 200-WMA) are going to continue to go up at a certain base rate while diminishing at the same time.. Maybe the diminishing rate of the 200-WMA is no less than 3% to 4% per annum (even though spot price might bounce around all over the place within hopeful limits, too), while at the same time, knowing that we cannot really know with any high level of confidence how the average price (referring to the 200-WMA) is going to average out.


When I am trying to compare the future projected values of this fuck you status tool to the values in my earlier fuck you status tables, then surely I can see that changing the predicted inflation rate % within this particular fuck you status tool affects the quantity of BTC required for each of the three future projection fields, and surely the predicted inflation rate is another way of attempting to calculate the debasement of the dollar (or I suppose any other fiat that we might want to consider in terms of our valuation).

My own mental models and my prior ways of discussing bitcoin portfolio management tended to presume that once we get to a fuck you status level that we are aiming to reach, then it is quite likely that if we incorporate something like a 7% increase in our own withdrawal rate each year, then bitcoin's historical performance (and likely future performance - still to be determined) will allow us to keep up with the cost of living and presumptively BTC values will appreciate by a greater amount than the rate of our withdrawal, yet I can even see within the projections of the fuck you status table within the tool that my presumptions of at least a 7% rise in the value of the BTC for each year starts to run into tensions in the late 2040s and early 2050s so that the projection table is showing that the 200-WMA may well not be rising at least 7% per year which would likely justify lowering the annual increases in any withdrawal rate that would end up being implemented.  

I think that with any projection tool that incorporates various presumptions, we likely have to make sure that those presumptions apply when we start to act upon the presumptions, and it is one thing to still be building up our bitcoin holdings in anticipation of future projected values or even if we might go into a kind of bitcoin portfolio maintenance mode in anticipation of future projected values, and so then by the time we transition from accumulation to maintenance and then to the sustainable withdrawal, then we have to make sure that our actual values still work in light of our then current projections and/or to make adjustments based on how the actual numbers might differ from our earlier projections or how the actual numbers differ from current expectations about future values..and of course, many of us would like our future projected values to end up being better than our projections rather than adjustments having to be made in the direction that we had been overly optimistic in our earlier projections.  In other words, surely it would be better to have more value than we had expected rather than ending up having less value than we had expected to have.

One more point about any concerns that any of us might have about thresholds - like filthy rich status.  The numbers of filthy rich status are much BIGGER so there would be vast differences in the potential projections in regards to getting there.  Even if we take my plain ole projection of $2 million to reach entry level fuck you status. Prior to March 2020, I had been using $1million, with a kind of presumption that there was value in being a millionaire, and even though prior to 2020, there might have been some presumption that a $million is enough, we also likely realize that a millionaire in 2000 had way more purchasing power than a millionaire in 2020, so it is not like the concept of millionaire had been static, and even the concept of entry level fuck you status had been being widdled away little by little over the years.  Even though since March 2020, I have been proclaiming $2 million to be entry-level fuck you status, I have received a whole lot of criticism that $2 million is not even close to enough, even though I all-of-a-sudden doubled it around March 2020.  So surely, thinking about today's dollars versus future dollars is no easy task, and even if we proclaim that in 50 years $100 million will be a lot of money, it is quite likely to not even be close to filthy rich status in terms of then nominal value... and even if we choose to not go with the rule of 7s since there would be a doubling each 7 years and the nominal outcome would look something like this:

2026  $100 million
2033  $200 million
2040  $400 million
2047  $800 million
2054  $1.6 billion
2061  $3.2 billion  
2068  $6.4 billion  
2075  $12.8 billion

Maybe instead, we choose to stick with more conservative numbers and a doubling every 10 years, and the nominal outcome would look something like this:

2026  $100 million
2036  $200 million
2046  $400 million
2056  $800 million
2066  $1.6 billion
2076  $3.2 billion  

Even if we attempt to be more rosey about the matter, and yeah, we can presume some nominal resets, yet it is still difficult to escape any kind of proclamation that $100 million in today's values is not going to be a lot of money (and especially not even close to "filthy-rich" status), especially going out 50-ish years into the future.

What an investor need is a long term plan, not “target”. I think giving yourself target comes with a lot of pressure to accumulate a certain amount of Bitcoin within a particular timeframe. You may end up over stretching yourself even when your income does not allow.

And what do you mean by “know when to be aggressive and less aggressive”? That part is sounding like you encouraging folks to time the market; to know when to buy more and when to reduce amount. Is that why you said they should approach Bitcoin professionally? Tbh I don't think all these things you mentioned are necessary if you want to accumulate bitcoin long term. A simple DCA plan beats all these your talk of being an expert and knowing when to be more or less aggressive.

Nem consigo imaginar. Seria um duro golpe.

A minha mulher batia-me, porque esta sempre a dizer, porque é que fazemos hold. 


Tem que se repensar a forma de como guardamos as nossas moedas. Pensar em formas, de "envolver" terceiros.

You see, if someone does mention either Bisq or crypto  or both, bank may record the relevant address as the risky one, and then share this data with other banks on mutual agreement , and finally this info may eventually fall into the hands of chainalysis agencies.

Great, I was going to reply yesterday but got to do more urgent stuffs.

BTW, that signed message was one of BIP322's test vectors, the signed message labeled as "simple" in this list: github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0322/basic-test-vectors.json

Comprei lá, vamos ver se me depositam.. a Tether deve gastar um bom dinheiro promovendo essa XAUT, não é a primeira vez que vejo promoção deles por ai.

Fazia tempo que não entrava lá.. nem lembrava como era ficar lutando contra os bots no order book

Essas carteiras tem que ser adquiridas sempre da fonte, a minha eu comprei direto do site oficial, veio da França e ainda paguei um balaio de impostos  ... eu não tenho coragem de comprar em qualquer revendedor que seja, a não ser os oficiais, pois em quantas mãos a menos o produto passar, menos chance de dar algum tipo de problema, é bizarro que vejo gente até vendendo carteiras usadas, sei la, haja coragem pra comprar e colocar dinheiro nelas.

Boa
A minha Ledger eu comprei na Best Buy dos Estados Unidos já faz um bom tempo
Tanto que é a Nano S que já ficou desatualizada

É uma grande rede, mas nada impedia que durante o transporte, armazenamento ou um funcionário mal intencionado adulterasse as carteiras e embalasse novamente


A minha Trezor eu peguei pela Amazon US e busquei em um locker, e foi a compra pela loja oficial da Trezor dentro da Amazon mesmo, nada de revendedor terceirizado

Como você já trocou a tela da sua Legder, você teve a oportunidade de ver por dentro dela e ver que era original sem alterações

Tem que esperar sair a investigação da Ledger para avaliar.. sinceramente, esses revendedores devem ganhar muito dinheiro e não teriam motivos para se matar desse jeito.. talvez um funcionário corrupto ou alguém da empresa de transporte (caso sempre utilizem a mesma).. mas ai o risco é o mesmo de comprar da loja oficial.

Acabaram de postar uma nota: https://x.com/cryptobilis/status/2108641764605354103

Eu diria que a chance é muito alta de acharem os culpados.

Folks need to understand that there’s a big difference between investing for the future and sacrificing their current financial stability for the future.
I see little to no point in accumulating bitcoin aggressively if you’re gonna eventually end up having to sell it off at a loss just to cover your basic needs, there’s no sense in doing that.

Build your Bitcoin holdings at a pace that you can easily sustain while still keeping enough money available for emergencies, necessities, and also for enjoying life.
Consistency certainly matters, but knowing your financial limits does matter too; long term investing can be sustainable without having to sacrifice present needs or financial stability.[/quote]

I think the best way to invest in bitcoin . Have an accumulation goal or a target goal before taken or making any rash decisions. Having a goal will help plan more effectively, like knowing when you should be aggressive and less aggressive.

So I’ve been playing with Bitmover &    JayJuanGee’s Tool, which is called JJG FUCK YOU STATUS CALCULATOR With this tool, you can set a more realistic Bitcoin accumulation goal based on your financial situation and cash flow.

Bitcoin investment is not something that should be approach carelessly . But something that should be handled more professionally, by planning effectively . The tool also come with some cool features like Dca calculator and others , so you can use it to improve your bitcoin accumulation . Remember, the goal isn’t to compete with anyone. It’s to build a Bitcoin stack that aligns with your own financial goals.

Lembro, era uma epoca muito sombria para o mercado brasileiro. Espero muito que a binance nao fique restringindo demais a plateia porque é inevitável que sem um player grande com muito volume, as outras tentem se aproveitar.

Sinto, infelizmente, que com essas restrições da binance, a gente vai voltar num patamar pre binance feito de taxas altas (lembro que no MB o negocio era tenebroso antigamente, tipo 1.2% pra sacar reais)

It is for all signatures done with BIP322. It was added to the final version of the BIP322: https://bips.dev/322/, under Types of Signatures (example test vector).

Do you mean this tool: bitcoindata.science/verify-message?
It works well with Taproot addresses signed via BIP322 standard, but somehow doesn't work in other address types that are signed using the same BIP322 standard.

E.g.: This Verified message in Sparrow (from BIP322 test vector):

Fails to verify in bitcoindata's verification tool:


It would be great to update it for compatibility with Sparrow.

So im assuming there is no annoying Chainalysis or similar that freezes your coins because apparently a mixer was used 27 years ago and now you are targeted as a bad guy. That is great, however I doubt zero paper work applies on all jurisdictions. The bank and taxman may ask where the money is coming from so you will need said paper work. And then who knows if they accept it as valid or not. This is the problem with Bitcoin, unless you bought them in a CEX, it becomes a risk using them, and you send the problem onto the next person. And since there is no real way to know if your coins are or not going to get frozen, it's all a gamble. If anyone has any experience in this context share it went. Im also assuming it depends the amounts you are selling, and also some banks and exchanges may apply different filters.

@bitmover, publicaram hoje um texto onde falam sobre essa mudança: https://www.binance.com/pt-BR/support/faq/detail/d79576b30c8240118a043129e0c21398

Outro detalhe é que estarão restringindo o acesso ao HODLer Airdrop (que você ganha uns tokens ao fazer 'staking' de BNB) e outros 7 serviços..

Também vão deslistar todas essas criptomoedas para brasileiros: XVG, USDE, USTC, DCR, DUSK, PIVX, BB, MANTRA, ONE, GMT, TFUEL, ZIL, ONT, RVN, ACX, HIT, PYR, VANRY, VIC, ICX, SCRT e STORJ.. o destaque fica para a stablecoin Ethena USD (USDE).

Não li todo o texto, mas pode interessar a quem utiliza a Binance.

O que me preocupa é que nenhum dos dois candidatos é flor que se cheire... se vier "um bom acordo" será que todo o discurso de anti-corrupção se sustenta?
Obviamente que não vão escancaradamente perdoar tudo, mas sim aflochar a mão no chicote, ou é delírio de minha parte?

Enfim, política brasileira... nunca foi sobre "o que é melhor pro povo", sempre foi pelo "o que é melhor pro nosso bolso".
Mas infelizmente as únicas opções viáveis pro segundo turno eram esses dois extremos, o menos pior é torcer por uma mudança, seja lá qual for

Yes, it's a great wallet, it has some advanced features, but a beginner shouldn't take long to get used to it. Unlike Electrum, it offers taproot and now silent payments,have you checked it out?.

I think it's filling the gaps left by Electrum very well.

As I said before, I crossed names in a conservative manner. Here is a maximalist list.


Mind you, I might have made some mistakes. For example, maybe I should have included jeremypwr but I am not sure and I have included some that sound like casino reps but who I don't know, like 96OFFICIAL but we can get an idea.

Bitinity's signature ban has actually been a bit of shock to me. He is actually one of the users who gambles and shares his experience in those boards including promos and given the fact that he spends most of the time in those boards. Acquiring merits from there is definitely going to be so hard.

You should have crossed out campaign managers and contest organisers as well to bring out a clear picture.

---

You were one of the contest organisers some months back, no? 

Upon reflection I have to agree. It does seem as though with the advent of other forums that are heavily advertising and promoting mixers, there would be no logical reason for mixers to pay the highest rates (or even high rates) to those participating in their signature campaigns (if they were allowed to use the forum again).

This is probably true but are those members (that are hoping for mixers to return to the forum) expecting huge payments for participating in campaigns?
