[ANN] JJG Sustainable Bitcoin Withdrawal Strategy

I can not visit your website with Tor, it is a thing you need to change for your website.

Wow!!!  I am having trouble figuring out if you learned your lesson or not.  I am getting the sense that you have not learned your lesson since you are trying to suggest and even explain the ups and downs of what you had ended up doing as if there was some benefit in it, even if we might conjecture that there may well could have had been unrealized potential benefit.

Part of the problem continues to be desires that you (and potentially others) have to gamble with one of the best if not best of assets (opportunities) that is available to normies who are fortunate enough to have discretionary funds. A large number of folks struggle to generate discretionary funds.   I would think that the greatness of bitcoin should motivate folks to accumulate it through certain kinds of means related to buying only so that they can be sure to be ongoingly building up its quantity rather than taking chances in regards to whether or not they are building up its quantity, which especially comes whenever selling is included into the bitcoin accumulation practices.

By the way, did you ever attempt to figure out what your level of bitcoin would have had been if you stayed focused on ONLY buying bitcoin as soon as you figured out that bitcoin was something to accumulate.  I understand that you are proclaiming that you were not quite unlost around the time of your forum registration in August 2023, yet you seemed to indicate that at some point, you began to recognize the value of accumulating bitcoin - yet I am still getting the sense that you are lost in regards to the ways that you are going about bitcoin accumulation, whether trading and maybe you would still go back to shitcoins if you were to conclude that some shitcoin might come available in which you perceive that putting value into that shitcoin (rather than staying focused on directly accumulating bitcoin) might end up allowing you to accumulate more bitcoin than a direct buying of bitcoin approach.

It is like you are ongoingly choosing to miss the downside potential of fucking around with trading and/or shitcoins, and perhaps you would get bored if you were to force ur lil selfie to stay focused on ongoing buying of bitcoin only.  It is like you are too smart (or think that you are too smart) for your own good... and I doubt that it really pans out to continue to fuck around trying to time tops and bottoms for the first several years (perhaps 4 or more) that guys are in bitcoin... and there are guys who have been in bitcoin for years and years and years, and they continue to have fun staying poor and continue to be involved in buying and/or selling of bitcoin because they continue to fail/refuse to spend a whole solid 4-ish years accumulating bitcoin through buying only.

Sure, it is possible that I might not be correct in regards to a need for newbies, no coiners, low coiners and guys who perceive themselves as still needing more coin to ongoingly focus on accumulating their bitcoin through buying only.. and that selling is not a good practice for guys who need to (or want to) accumulate more bitcoin.

Of course, you can do what you want, yet if you are posting about it and trying to suggest that you are engaged in some kind of a good practice or even to suggest that there might be some replicability in the ways that you are working towards building your bitcoin stash, then surely you are going to end up getting push back from guys like me.


What do you mean? You said that this year you were going to try to accumulate as much bitcoin as you can.

You also said that you did the same thing at the beginning of 2025.

Accordingly, I was just asking if you had transitioned into a buying only approach to accumulating bitcoin, yet it seems that you have not.

I don't see what it is that I missed about November and December?  I am suggesting that guys who do not have enough coins should just be ongoingly accumulating bitcoin through buying, and so there tends to be some value in buying as the the BTC price goes down, especially if the BTC price stops going down - yet there is no real way to know if the BTC price is going to stop going down.. and none of those price matters should matters to guys who are in their early bitcoin accumulation phases.

Surely guys like me proclaim to have already gone through most of our bitcoin accumulation stages, so I have not really been claiming to be in my accumulation phase since 2014 - yet at the same time, I continued to inject new value into bitcoin in 2015 and even into 2016 - even though perhaps by the time that we got to 2017, I did not have as many instances in which I was injecting new value into bitcoin - which could be a sign that I had both considered myself mostly through my bitcoin accumulation phase and that my practices also mostly reflected such status.. Yet at the same time, I have had some bouts in which I had injected some new value into bitcoin, including the 2022 price drop, especially when I was coming close to running out of money (that was already in my bitcoin investing system) in about mid 2022 when the BTC price dropped down to about $19k and it had a spike down to $17.5k-ish but I did not buy at that particular spike down because I was regrouping.. and so  from mid 2022 to about late 2022 (when BTC prices finally reached their lowest of lows at $15,479 in November), I had injected some new value into bitcoin during that time.


Ok.  Perhaps you are making some progress to transition yourself from a trading mindset into an investing mindset.


O.k. Fair enough.


I imagine that many guys come into bitcoin without necessarily a straight DCA approach in which they have invested steady for the whole time, since if you had already been in bitcoin, then you might have had some points that you put more value in and then maybe you have your income and then you draw from your income and then maybe you might have some other funds that you consider whether or not to add to your bitcoin or alternatively to just keep those other funds where they are at... so the beginning journey in regards to starting to focus on buying only might take time to really get into the groove, to the extent that you are not prone to relapsing.

Sometimes you can just look at a standard DCA approach in order to attempt to compare where you are at relative to the standard DCA approach.

So for example, a person who might have had started investing in bitcoin around July 1, 2024 at a steady rate of $100 per week would have had invested about $8k up until now and would have had accumulated about 0.091 BTC, which is about break-even right now.. so yeah, sometimes if we make mistakes, then our own holdings might have slightly worse measures as compared with a standard and steady rate of bitcoin buying... yet I still imagine that if many guys attempt to get on track fairly early in their bitcoin journey then by 4 years, their average cost per BTC would be right around the 200-WMA and then surely by 6 or 8 years, then the average cost per BTC should be quite a bit lower than the 200-WMA.. perhaps even 50% of the 200WMA.. We cannot exactly know, and surely guys have irregularities in the amount of money they have coming available that can be put into bitcoin and if they are young or in their earlier years where they can get job (income) promotions, then they might end up being able to increase the amounts that they are able to put into bitcoin with the passage of time.. so even a guy who starts at $100 per week, he might end up progressing to quite a bit higher amounts, especially if he had simultaneously strengthened his cashflow management systems/practices along the way, too.

Unless a guy is really able to front load his bitcoin investment within his first whole cycle of investing, I expect that many guys will have to stay in accumulation mode for longer than a whole cycle and two cycles would not be unusual, even guys who are ready, willing and able to invest fairly aggressively at something close to 25% of their income.


Yep... some times we say too much, and yeah there had been some points that I had suggested to having at least 0.63 BTC... so there could be questions regarding whether those kinds of admission could end up coming back to bite us.

It seems that sometimes if we are trying to retain some meaning in our discussions, we might have to throw out some numbers and sometimes even suggest that we have some personal experiences around the topics that we discuss - even if sometimes we also might attempt to extrapolate too.

So sometimes a guy with 0.63 BTC might extrapolate 10x (such as 6.3 BTC) or some other number in order to relate with some of the ideas being discussed (and the extent to which we might strive to make our numbers somewhat tangible and/or relatable).


Remember when mindrust proclaimed that he had achieved 10 BTC, and the price would have had been around $5,500 at that time, yet he ended up saying that he had sold them all within less than 24 hours of his declaration, which his sale would have had been around $4,500.

It is hard for guys to hang onto bitcoin, even when he proclaims to be trying to do so.

So gosh. Maybe 10 BTC at $4,500 or $5,500 is not much less than 1.26 BTC in these here times.

Part of the reason that specific numbers are important relate to being able to potentially talk about them in terms of if they might be enough or more than enough.

I would argue that right now, 1.26 BTC would sustainably support an annual income of $7,165, which would ONLY be $600 per month, which is not really enough to live off of, even though it could supplement other income.. so yeah, I think that many of us would like to be able to get to and/or to maintain some kind of a status to have sustainable income from our investments, whether it is bitcoin alone or bitcoin along with some other sources of income.

So if we can get our bitcoin stash up to a high enough amount or even to exceed the targeted amount that we would like to be able sustainably withdraw from it, then there may well be some sense of accomplishment in regards to the pay off of our having had spent time accumulating bitcoin and/or perhaps maintaining it while we were waiting for the amount to be enough to be sustainably withdrawn.. .. and yeah, I hate to impose my values on others (even though I don't) - even though there are guys who seem to not be able to get out of the mindset of either transitioning their bitcoin into another asset and/or consuming it.. which seem to be inferior approaches in regards to what to do with our playing with our bitcoin, from my point of view.


Even though, sure, it could be that the BTC price is in the ballpark of $900k in 6 years, yet at the same time, I somewhat hate to be a party poop, since I think that there is some justification in an expectation of diminishing returns.

Wasabi support sending and there is a PR for receiving which works well but it contradicts the main goal that Wasabi is pursuing which is becoming more resilient by avoiding the need for central servers or indexers.

The main difference between mixers is that they can deliver you coins with very low AML score, some of them claim to take funds from exchanges and other licensed services and deliver uncommitted coins to their customers.

Regarding coinjoin, I can't give much opinion on its functioning, as I don't know much about its technical details, just the basics kind of above... but I believe it's a good option too.

Yeah, it's important to avoid receiving coins at the same address, despite being a basic thing, it is a practice highly encouraged by modern wallets.

There are also silent payments that some wallets like Cake have the option to receive at SP addresses, they are similar to Monero's stealth addresses. I can't wait for this feature to be made available in Bitcoin Core, Electrum, Wasabi, etc. (especially the receiving function).

I can now grab what sustainable withdrawal is and can imagine how an investor will keep there investment on ground level if they keep withdrawing based on how i viewed sustainable withdrawal before now. Steady 4+ stacking of Bitcoin at a certain rate can be able to get someones investment to sustainable withdrawal status which seems to be one of the advantages of long-term investment.

This brings back what JJG had said earlier, I quote
"I doubt that just calling something sustainable makes it sustainable,
 especially if the principle is being depleted, yet sure,
guys can do what they want, but if they call it sustainable
and they are depleting their principle, then I would suggest that
they don't really understand the "sustainable" idea."

How I viewed sustainable withdrawal before now was seen to be sustainable when it's not really sustainable.
However, it's no longer about principle depletion but about leaving your Bitcoin investment on ground level (without growth) which not very far from gambling.

I don't think these are the parameters on which to base such a judgment.
For example, Ethereum is at #2, even though it never touched that level again after the ATH in 2021. Probably a pure loss for many holders. Here, holders even get a profit through staking, although I'm not sure how real the profit is, considering the low and on-hold value of ETH.
But, we probably shouldn't derail the Splash.tf thread with such discussion.

Just an update: this was back when zkSNACKs was funding chain analysis. That coordinator is no longer with us, Wasabi is now just sitting there open-source, allowing you to select any coordinator you want. Also, zkSNACKs was charging you to coinjoin, if memory serves right, while there are coordinators now that charge you near zero, and you end up paying only mining fees and maybe leftover (which is usually something around ~1k sats).

Authorities haven't managed to de-anonymize a WabiSabi coinjoin, unless the user was a whale (> 5 BTC) and did a stupid consolidation.

No, there is zero reasons to use mixers.

In 2023 the Wasabi coinjoin service was provided by a company called zkSNACKs which director board decided to pay for a chain analysis API to prevent coins from using the service. That is objectively true and was announced publicly by zkSNACKs before implementing that meassure.  Working with authorities and survillance is simply not true, a lie. Given Wasabi doesn't know anything about its users nor its users' wallets, it can not share anything with anyone. 

In 2024 zkSNACKs closed its doors and let the Wasabi FOSS project in the hands of independent contributors to maintain it (I am one of those). The coordination servers are run by independent volunteers (currently 6 according to https://liquisabi.com/), in fact all the Wasabi infrastructure is run and maintained by independent contributors. 

Mixers are sucker traps and exit scams. Who in their right mind would give their bitcoins to a mixer hoping to get them back while paying 5% plus a flat fee? If someone asks about coinjoins or mixers, why ignore the best option (coinjoining) and jump directly to a riskier, more expensive, and almost certainly scam option (mixers)?


Coinjoining with Wasabi Wallet IS in practical sense almost free in many many cases and free in most of the cases.

No way. The most used coinjoin implementation is by far Wasabi Wallet, and it doesn't charge any service fee, only network fees to pay miners. Wasabi clients, however, can give dust to the coordinators. According to real-world data extracted from https://liquisabi.com in 2025, 42,488.54 fresh bitcoins have entered Wasabi coinjoins, and the coinjoin coordinators have earned 2.634899 bitcoins. This means that approximately 0.0062% of wallets give up to the coinjoin coordinator on average. In other words, for every BTC you enter in the coinjoin process, 0.000062 BTC is given to the coordinator on average.

Enter into https://liquisabi.com and select the time frame to cover the full 2025 and verify it by yourselves.

At some point I had said that I had more than 0.63 BTC, so as time passes, I might end up not having as many as I used to have, yet more than 0.63 BTC isn't really that bad for someone who has a year or two in bitcoin - even though we tend to assume that longer term guys have more coin, which is not always a correct assumption.

I do like to mix my real and my fictional so there might be some obscurity about the specifics - even though surely prior to 2020, I used to use $1 million (or the ability to withdraw $3,333 per month) as the default entry level fuck you status, even the millionaire in 2020 was not as meaningful as the millionaire in  2010 or the millionaire in 2000 or surely 1990, that was probably when being a millionaire meant something.

I still believe that it was fair to move up entry level fuck you status to $2 million or $6,666 per month in 2020 - even though even that is getting diluted away, even though we still have quite a bit of variance around the world where $6,666 per month does not mean shit in some western locations and especially some of the BIGGER city areas in the western locations, yet there are also places around the world where $6,666 per month can really mean something... for even the majority of the population who might ONLY be making a fraction of that and having to work as well.

Probably around 2020, I also moved away from the use of spot price as a way to valuate wealth, and the use of the 200-WMA seems to allow for a much more stable way of counting on a withdrawal rate that would rely on that, which means that currently to get to a $6,666 monthly income, I assess that a guy would need 14.0676 BTC, so the amount of bitcoin needed keeps coming down and down and down, even though it could well take until around 2040 before 0.63 BTC territories might start to be able to support a $6,666 per month income, which surely we are likely going to need to double entry level fuck you status, perhaps in 2030 and also in 2040. The greatness of the debasement the dollar continues to be a bit of an unknown.. so maybe by 2040.. entry level fuck you status would be based on a presumption of $10 million in wealth, which would mean around a $33k per month income, which seems a bit unwieldily at the moment and as if something may well need to break pretty badly in the next 15-ish years.

My point in using those default fuck you status numbers is not to reflect on myself, yet meant to be a reflection of a kind of normal (not too rich and not too poor) person's entry level (threshold amount) to get out of the rat race and to be able to live somewhat comfortable given the status of not having to work and also the entry-level status of being able to live somewhat comfortably.  I also presume that once the person reaches whatever sustainable withdrawal status, bitcoin coin should be able to allow him to presume giving himself up to a 7% per year raise in terms of the dollar amount.. so one thing is getting started and another thing is keeping it going once it is started.. which presumes having enough BTC to have the threshold status but also perhaps a bit extra as a cushion, too.

By the way, I calculate that the current sustainable withdrawal rate for 0.63 BTC would be about $3,853 per year, which would be about $300 per month (of course with perhaps up to a 7% per year increase in the dollar rate), which is not very much, even in very poor places around the world, even though surely there would be some folks who would be quite happy with $300 per month for the rest of their life with up to a 7% per year increase in the amount... and that is before they decide to deplete the principle.  I know that some folks don't necessarily agree with whether the rate that I have figured out is sustainable, yet I surely think that my position on the matter is defendable... and I think that it is likely to work (until and unless the 200-WMA discontinues going up greater than 10% per year, which I think it is going to take a while for it to stop growing at least at 10% or more per year.

What did I miss here?
XMR holders have lost money while keeping Monero?! Monero, which had 120%-150% YTD in 2025. Not bad at all for one of the major altcoins.

I guess "who's holding Monero" is the rhetorical question.
Monero is still being mined. What you describe could perhaps be attributed to the fact that miners sometimes sell xmr to cover costs, which are related to fiat

Yep.  If guys have other funds in various forms, then he has options, and yeah, he might have some social options too.. that he might build over the years, so he knows that he might be able to get funds from other people, up to a certain point.. so then he might have to weigh from which one to spend first.. and the fewer options that he has, then he might end up having to resort to his bitcoin.. which he is attempting to avoid.,. and surely even when the various back up funds are getting close to being exhausted, he might be able to finds some less preferable and inconvenient ways to increase his income and/or cut some of his expenses. .so sometimes even having certain talents or a certain set of connections might help to generate some temporary income or an ability to cut some expenses based on people who are known or social relations that are in place.


Surely keeping some money for optional consumption can serve a lot of purposes, including psychological well-being, so for example, there might be some opportunity to go on a weekend trip, and the trip might cost $200, and maybe there are funds that are being held for flexible reasons.. and choices may well have to be made, since the $200 might be well spent on such consumption, and there could be lifetime regrets in having had missed the opportunity when it was available...

and like you suggest Futurexxx, the nature of discretionary spending might have a lot of subjective element involved in terms of how high of a priority to give such extra optional spending, in which some guys might consider the spending to be completely wasteful and other guys might decide that they want to have the option to spend money on the thing that they want and to control and/or balance their choices in ways that they personally prioritize and no one else might agree with certain parts of their choices... and even if guys have some of these kinds of spending pieces that seem completely irrational, they also might know that they also have put in place certain limits for themselves in regards to how much of their income they are going to allow themselves to spend on such seemingly whimsical spending matters.

By the way, if we know that we have desires to be whimsical with our money, we might still allow ourselves to partake in such whimsicalities, while at the same time trying to put some kind of a strict limitation on the amount that we dedicate for such, so maybe we tell ourselves that no more than 10% of our discretionary money can be used for our whimsical spending.. so we still have those freedoms to be whimsical, but we also have put systems in place (that are an amount that we specifically chose for ourselves) to control how much we partake in such whimsicalities an potentially limit the amount of damage that such whimsical behaviors will end up doing to our investment systems and practices that we have decided to put in place and to prioritize for what we believe to be for our own good and for our own future self.


Well.  If we have a variety of investments, we likely need to figure out priorities, and surely some investments are more volatile and some are more liquid than others.  So sometimes we might need to reallocate some of our other investments so that we are not forced to sell some (or all) of our bitcoin merely because it happens to be the most liquid asset that we happen to have available... so surely if we prioritize our bitcoin investment, we may well have to take various preventative measures in terms of other assets (investments) that we hold, and surely we might realize that certain of our investments are not very liquid, yet we value those assets less than our bitcoin investment, so we may well have to proactively take measures to liquidate some of our illiquid assets (and either put them in bitcoin or put them in some other liquid kind of a holdings) so that we do not end up having to touch our bitcoin when we would have had preferred to take it from the less liquid asset first...

So for example, let's say that we hold an index fund, and that index fund is mostly available Monday through Friday during normal business days, and we also know that it would take around 2 weeks before we could sell and convert such asset to dollars or whatever is our local currency.  We might know that our bitcoin can be available within 1 calendar day or perhaps even faster than that... so we might realize that we need to act in advance.  We also might own some property or even share ownership in property or in a business, and we know that it would take several months to liquidate that value... so we might need to take that into account too in regards what we are holding and what proportion of value we are holding in various assets.  A few years ago, I had decided to begin to withdraw from an index fund because I wanted it to generate cash (or an cash income) for me on a monthly basis, so then having that extra cash coming in from that index fund, I have been given an additional cushion of money that causes me to have less worry about selling any of my bitcoin and even potentially to use some or that money to buy more bitcoin from time to time.. even though I consider myself to not be accumulating bitcoin as I had been doing more than 10-ish years ago...so sometimes we can take actions in regards to some of the other investments assets that we have in order to reinforce our prioritization of holding and maintaining and perhaps even building our bitcoin holdings.


Maybe we are distracting people with the idea of emergency fund.

Fuck emergency funds for whatever random purpose.. it does not matter..

We are specifically talking about protecting our bitcoin investment, and so the extent that you keep other emergency funds and blah blah blah.. The main context that we are talking about is making sure that we are able to both build up our bitcoin investment and to minimize the chances that we might have to tap into our bitcoin at a time that is not of our choosing... so if we end up screwing things up and then we have to tap into our bitcoin, then in some sense we have failed.

Sure, if an Emergency is big enough then we may well have no choice but to tap into our bitcoin to save our life or perhaps the life of some other person(s) in which we feel some financial obligation to save.


You have already screwed up in your own prior failure/refusal to sufficiently protect your bitcoin, and so now you want to tell us that we need to establish an emergency fund first, merely because you fucked up.  You are surely not a good role model on either the bitcoin investment or the cashflow management topic..


Hopefully, you can learn for yourself and not end up screwing up in the opposite direction because you end up over compensating for your prior screw up.


There is nothing wrong with allocating more to bitcoin, yet there still needs to be some kind of funds to cover various cashflow situations that might come up that relate to loss of income and/or increases in expenses.. and so each of us have to figure out how to make such balances, without putting ourselves into a place that we have to tap into our bitcoin at a time that is not completely of our own choosing.

Many times normal people might come to bitcoin, and they might already have a practice in place that they have 2-6 weeks of various back up funds available for irregularities that might occur in regards to their income and/or their expenses.  Many folks have a certain level of pride in which they don't want to put themselves into a position in which they have to ask others for a bailout.. so they have systems in place to bail themselves out from any shortages in cash that they might end up experiencing.

So if a person comes to bitcoin and they already have some back up funds in place, then they are off to a good start, yet if people come to bitcoin and they do not hae those systems and/or practices in place, then they likely have to figure out how to get into better cashflow management practices... and surely with something like bitcoin, p;art of the eason that we have to build greater back up funds is because bitcoin tends to be very volatile and very liquid, so we have to have systems in place where we are not tempted to touch our bitcoin for 4-10 years or longer.. perhaps even greater than 10 years would be our goal since less than 10years would ONLY apply to folks who have health and/or age reasons for not being able to commit to longer periods such as greater than 10 years.


Hopefully you can get some kind of a reasonable balance without overreacting or overcompensating and/or failing/refusing to learn the right kind of a lesson. It can take a long time to build a bitcoin investment and also to strengthen existing cashflow management systems/practices - including that there are some special peculiarities in regards to protecting our bitcoin  - even though surely in a worse case situation, we may well not have any choice but to tap into our bitcoin and/or potentially to completely use our bitcoin to respond to such emergency situation, yet at the same time, there tends to be quite a bit of high importance to try to not put ourselves into any emergency situation due to our own sloppiness and/or lack of preparedness.. and yeah, it can take a while and even sometimes we might have to do work or engage in some kinds of employment that we would prefer not to do.. but we are at the same time trying to make sure that we are both investing into bitcoin from our discretionary income and also that we are making sure that we are building and/or maintaining strong cashflow management systems/practices. 

Most times no one is going to be available to hold our hand and/or to make sure that we are allocating correctly into each of the categories, so hopefully we can figure out ways to learn and to continue to build at the same time so that we are not faced with situations where we have to start over.


I use the term overaccumulation to describe a situation in which a person has accumulated enough or more than enough bitcoin, so then options open up in terms of being able to start to sustainably withdraw based on price and/or based on time.

For example, in the beginning of 2016, a person had a $30k per year income and over the past 10 years he had been accumulating bitcoin at $100 per week, and his income had gone up to $50k now.  He would like to quit his job and start to live off of his bitcoin, yet he does not want to quit his job until he is sure that he can withdraw at $80k per year from his bitcoin.

He looks at his bitcoin and he sees that over the past 10-ish years, he had invested about $52k, and he had accumulated 15.26 BTC.  He also looks at the current amount of BTC that he would need to start to withdraw at $80k per year, and he sees that it is 14.0757, so he sees that he has enough BTC to start his $80k per year withdrawal rate and to meet the minimum threshold level to be able to start to withdraw at his target of $80k per year, and he sees that he also has nearly 1.1 BTC extra.. so he feels even more comfortable that he more than meets the minimal level of BTC for his desire start to the process of withdrawing at $80k per year and he has a bit of an overaccumulation cushion of nearly 1.1 BTC so that he can continue to monitor his withdrawal rate once he gets started and to continue to make sure that he does not deplete the dollar value of his current BTC holdings faster than his holdings would be growing in value in spite of his plan to start to withdraw $6,666 per month and at the same time, he considers that it is going to be quite likely that he is going to be able to increase his dollar withdrawal rate by 7% each subsequent year, so in year 2, he will withdraw $85.6k, year 3 he will withdraw $91.6k, year 4 he will withdraw $98k - etc etc etc.. and he will continue to monitor to make sure that his bitcoin is growing in its dollar value faster than the rate that he is withdrawing from his holdings.

Each of us is responsible to figure out how many bitcoin we need, and if we have determined that we have reached overaccumulation status, we should put systems in place that don't cause us to get knocked out of overaccumualtion status, once we are in it.

If we buy MSTR and/or its derivative products, we have bought various paper claims and we have helped MSTR to acquire more bitcoin, and we have also exposed ourselves to some of their execution risk that may or may not end up helping us to profit directly, since surely there could well be times (and there have been) that MSTR and/or its derivative products have performed better than bitcoin (and even better than cash), and sure there could be some governments, institutions and/or even individuals with certain kinds of accounts (such as retirement) that are ONLY authorized to buy third party products rather than guying bitcoin directly, so they might choose to own MSTR and/or its derivative products.  As individuals we can directly own bitcoin, and even some governments and/or institutions might be able to figure out ways to directly own bitcoin... so  maybe if we choose to own both, then we have to figure out how much we might be ready, willing and/or able to hold of each of those.  With any potentially risky item or trading or shitcoin, I tend to start out with the idea of no more than 10% of the size of our bitcoin should be allowed to be invested in such potentially risky item, and I would consider MSTR and/or its derivative products to fit in such category, and sure of course, guys are free to come to their own calculations. 

I recall so many instances in 2017 in which guys were so excited about shitcoins that they either did not own any bitcoin, or they had the reverse allocation, so they would have 90% of their holdings in various shitcoins and 10% in bitcoin.. which in retrospect is seen as truly retarded, and I surely tried to tell them that they were being retarded at the time, yet it can frequently be difficult to help people to both recognize and to control their inclinations towards wanting to speed up the process of getting rich, so they end up diluting their focus on bitcoin, losing their way and/or even denying that bitcoin is the prize... I remember so much about bitcoin as grandpa coin.. hahahahaha.. and those guys who failed/refused to sufficiently/adequately maintain a decent bitcoin holding size ended up really losing their opportunities to build meaningful wealth such as the guys who had either held bitcoin through 2017 and thereafter and/or the guys who continued to stack bitcoin during those times and perhaps being able to get to a point of having enough or more than enough bitcoin.. And surely even a relatively small budget of consistent buying of bitcoin that started in 2017 may well could have reached overaccumulation status by now and perhaps even earlier.

So for example even a guy who might have had been earning around $30k per year in early 2017, he might have had invested $100 per week (which is about 17% of his income in bitcoin), and by now he would have had invested around $47k (1.5x of his annual income), and he would have had accumulated around 5.41 BTC, which largely right now would be enough bitcoin to get him started with sustainable withdrawal at $30k per year.  Sure, he could continue to accumulate bitcoin and perhaps in a year or two, his sustainable withdrawal rate from an ongoing $100 per week investment into bitcoin may well put him at a withdrawal rate that is close to double the current $30k per year rate.  Guys can measure these matters and figure out ways to really empower themselves from directly owning and building up their bitcoin, even though it could still well take a decently long time to really stay focused on ongoing bitcoin accumulation through buying and even not overdoing it and/or putting your bitcoin at risk by fucking around with otherwise risky side distractions whether MSTR (its derivative products) or even other various paper bitcoin products that are available (such as spot bitcoin ETFs and/or other of those kinds of products).


Yep.  A lot has changed in the last year with Strategy and/or its various products, and surely it was fairly recently (maybe various points in early 2025) that MSTR was on the top of the world and so many guys were really excited to be in MSTR and even those who did not have MSTR were regretting not having had been in MSTR.. and even in this thread we had guys very excited and even lecturing guys for their not being in MSTR..  as if owning MSTR was such an "obvious" no brainer play.  Guys who held onto their MSTR or even kept buying MSTR as it kept plummeting ended up serving as exit liquidity for MSTR's ability to get more bitcoin for itself, since the Bitcoin that MSTR holds is largely unencumbered, while shareholders ended up paying the price and even thinking that Saylor et al were acting in their best interests... yet I still doubt that Saylor and/or MSTR agents ended up violating any rules (I don't claim to be an expert in terms of if there might be ways for them to be prosecuted.. Ok.. now I am starting to sound like the sceptical chymist)..  He's gotta be coming in here pretty soon and telling us all "I told you so," no?  Surely certain aspects of his thesis seem to be playing out.. .and even the MSTR situation seems to be evolving in ways that they likely are acting worse than what guys had expected them to act in terms of dilution of shares and the kinds of things that centralized entities will do, especially when they get desperate and seem to be spiraling..

Thank you everyone for your response. Thanks Bitmover for your patience in helping me understand how to use the tool. I believe I can handle it myself now. Locking the thread.

And that's it, 2025 is over. It's time for the results.

But first, let's summarize the performance of altcoins, which we can definitely call shitcoins.
Only a few shitcoins manage to outperform BTC. The big winners are Monero and gold.

Congratulations to internetional, paid2, and LoyceV.

The most surprising thing is that, for once, the winner didn't select the best-performing shitcoin (XMR). It was all about the proportions of his selection.

As usual, I will wait 2-3 days so that everyone can check that I haven't made a mistake. Then I will contact the winners by PM to ask for their BTC address so I can send the rewards.
(What worries me a little is that paid2's last login date is 28/11. I hope he's looking to buy his third house and he will be back soon).

Thank you for this year, it was truly special (a little thought for Woodie ), and the suspense was definitely there.
Be careful when trading shitcoins, don't forget to take your profits.


For the other contest, I won't hide the fact that it seems compromised (or else I will have to go through the hassle of charging participants an entry fee...).

Your ideas of sustainable withdrawal sound quite jumbled.

There is an idea of paying oneself and it has to do with saving and investing.... When you save and invest for the future, you are paying yourself.. even though you might not be able to cash it out for a while.

So my idea of sustainable withdrawal relates to a status that guys might reach after 4-10 years or longer investing, and if the get to overaccumulation status, then they may well be able to calculate ways that they withdraw from their bitcoin at a rate that is sustainable forever, which means that the dollar value of the bitcoin is growing faster than the rate that is being withdrawn.

So for example right now if a person wanted to withdraw $80k per year ($6,666 per month) from his bitcoin stash in a sustainable way, then right now he would need to have at least 14.0757 bitcoin, and of course, it would be better to have a little bit more for a cushion, even though at least having the minimum should work for that rate... and so if he is withdrawing $80k per year and even potentially increasing the dollar rate of withdrawal by 7% each year, he should be able to sustain that withdrawal rate forever and ever and ever.  Of course, it is good to have a bit of a cushion to be able to monitor that the rate is going to be sustainable... or alternatively withdraw at a lower rate or alternatively wait for a few months before starting the withdrawal, even though the threshold requirements seem to have had been met.  Each of us is responsible to make sure that we are calculating correctly so that we do not withdraw faster than the dollar value is growing.   

From my point of view guys frequently start to withdraw before they have reached over accumulation status or the withdraw at rates that are not sustainable meaning that they are depleting the principle so that the value of the bitcoin is not going up faster than the rate of withdrawal...and we should be able to figure out ways to avoid overly depleting our bitcoin stashes.


If you are continuously withdrawing from your profits, then you are likely never going to benefit from the compounding value of your bitcoin, so it could take several doublings before you really start to feel good about your bitcoin stash and your abilities to start to withdraw.

So I don't think that it is good to merely look at how much profits that you have in your bitcoin in order to figure out sustainable withdrawal rate.  I like to calculate the value of bitcoin using the 200-WMA.. which is the average price that anyone would have had achieved if he had been investing steadily for the past 4 years.  Right now the 200-WMA is just over $56.8k.  You can look at my thread about sustainable withdraw if you want to get some better ideas, yet it seems to me that you don't really understand the concept very well, at least from my point of view, and really it is better to get to a status of overaccumulation before you really start to withdraw from your bitcoin stash, and it can take a while to get to such status.. which is part of the reason that frequently we talk about accumulating bitcoin for 4-10 years and beyond... and perhaps reassessing at various points in time.

This thread is about accumulating bitcoin and sure it is good to have goals to get to overaccumulation status, yet you probably should not be rushing the process and you probably should be figuring out ways that you have really understood the ideas of overaccumulation before you start thinking about selling bitcoin before you have even reached enough or more than enough bitcoin to be able to go down that path. 

You Obulis have been registered on the forum for merely two years, and I have trouble imagining anyone being able to get to overaccumulation status in merely two years, unless perhaps you were able to front load your investment in early 2024 or something like that, or maybe you got started with your bitcoin accumulation prior to your registering in on the forum?

 
Maybe a guy who had been investing for 4 years at a fairly steady and regular rate starting from early 2024 like Obulis's forum registration date, then maybe by early to mid-2028, his average costs per BTC might be around $100k or so?  But then we are not sure what the price of BTC would be, yet the more important questions would relate to how many BTC  he had been able to accumulate, rather than if he is able to cash out some of his profits.  Focusing on cashing out profits is surely not getting to the idea of sustainable withdrawal to the extent that profits even matter very much once a guy gets to sustainable withdrawal status, even though surely it seems that the more bitcoin we are able to accumulate, then there may well be times that the compounding value of our holdings will have helped to have had put us into a status of having enough or more than enough bitcoin.  Guys seem to get distracted by whether or not they have profits rather than just ongoingly making sure that they are stacking bitcoin so that at some point down the road, if they do start to sell some of their bitcoin, they are likely just shaving off small amounts of their bitcoin and they might even spend 4-10 years or more accumulating bitcoin, and then another  4 years or so just maintaining the stash without selling any and then maybe after that next 4 year period, then at that point, their bitcoin might be in a sufficient enough size that they can start to withdraw at a rate that might be able to either support their standard of living or maybe to supplement other income soursees that they might have.


I know I likely already responded to your situation, which is that you likely need to figure out some reasonable amount to invest in bitcoin so that you are not depleting any back up funds that you have, and if you are getting into situations where you need to take out loans, then you are not sufficiently living within your means and you are likely not generating enough discretionary income to be investing into bitcoin.  You should be trying to work up to higher level of investments in bitcoin, so you might well need to start out with smaller amounts so that you never have to sell your bitcoin, and of course, you can build up both your emergency funds and your bitcoin at the same time, yet it sounds as if you already have problems managing your money so you need to figure out ways to not over do things so that you don't put yourself into similar situations in the future so that you dont' have to end up selling any of your bitcoin for 10 years or longer. ..and surely some people might need to take close to 20 years before they might have had been able to build up a large enough bitcoin stash.

estou bem menos tempo heheh




mas tamo por ai, eu acho que preciso melhorar a qualidade das minhas postagens, por mais que as vezes é cansativo, mas devemos sempre manter a consistência, é isso que nos leva adiante... o fórum me trouxe muitas coisas boas também, é realmente um privilégio receber satoshis em troca de postagens, isso é uma maravilha

Parabéns bitmover, é bastante dedicação mesmo
Você tem muito mais tempo logado que eu, olha só:

Wow, thank you. This is just what I needed to know. My confusion started when I didn't make use of those numbers. This helped alot.

You can have more participants.
30 is the maximum number of winners, not the maximum number of participants.

Okay that's good. Now I think it's time to lock the thread

Since there are numbers of people using the Bitmover tools for selections in their draw which we have them mostly from the games and rounds under gambling section, maybe you contact them and hear about the idea on how they go with the process, you can as well PM Bitmover himself for proper guide, while I will solicit for others that might be interested in using the same tool in the future to have a tutorial guide on how to use it, Bitmover himself may try to help in this situation or any member that have a broader idea on the procedures.

The numbers determine the order in which you paste the names into BitMover's tool.

Hello, I am Floxynice, currently running a quick naira loan on the Nigerian local board. Right now, I am hosting a raffle draw for my customers, but I’m facing some challenges since this is my first time hosting a raffle draw in this forum.

I just tried conducting a raffle with a random sample of 10 participants to get 3 winners using the Bitmover tool. Before this, the participants had picked random numbers from 1–64. Here are my observations:

• I realized that the tool did not make use of the numbers picked by the participants, only their usernames. What then is the use of those numbers? Is there any way to determine the winners while taking the random numbers picked by the participants into consideration?
• I can only process 30 participants at a time. What about participants that are more than 30?

Sorry, I have already seen the Bitmover thread but decided to make a separate thread for visibility so I can get quick responses, as the raffle is ending today. I’ll lock the thread once I get the answers I need.

Who's holding Monero? I get the feeling the price is more based on actual usage, and it often seems to move in the other direction: when Bitcoin goes up, Monero goes down (and vice versa). At least in the short term I get the feeling Monero is more stable measured in dollars than it is when measured in Bitcoin.

Esse é outro ponto que a malta esquece.
O top50 dos mais ricos do mundo, não tem literalmente esse dinheiro que se diz ter. Os bens que tem (em especial ações) que vale isso tudo.

Se o Musk quisesse largar a vida publica e ir para uma ilha deserta, simplesmente não conseguiria vender nem metade dos seus bens. Porque quem iria comprar? Os valores chegam a patamares, que ninguém quer comprar, porque sabe que a seguir o valor desses bens vai desvalorizar.

No final, eles acabam por ficar reféns da fortuna que tem.

Elon Musk só faz uma parte

Mas tem muito projeto que não recebe financiamento e que começa em universidades com pesquisadores e que podem não ter muito valor comercial no começo para justificar financiamento de pessoas como Elon Musk e suas empresas

Realmente se ele vende todas as ações o dinheiro só troca de mão sendo que quem comprou as ações vira o dono da empresa e o Elon Musk apenas pega o dinheiro deles. As ações também caem muito enquanto ele vende o que causa muita perda de dinheiro no caminho.

Não lembrava que o Buffett ia doar tudo mas espero que ele escolha caridades boas para doar que não vão sumir com o dinheiro e desvirtuar as coisas boas que pode causar. Eu se fosse ele doaria para financiar pesquisas que podem mudar o mundo e avançar as tecnologias e não aquela lorota de acabar a fome sendo que o povo dos países mais pobres sempre continuam na pobreza mesmo com tanto dinheiro sendo doado

Buying when money is available is DCA.

Buying when price goes down is buying on the dip.  DCA and buying on dip are not the same thing since DCA is not price sensitive, even though some people say that they are going to DCA during dips, they are combining strategies and they are not employing strict DCA which is price insensitive and buys when money is available.

Yes.  MSTR/Saylor do the former and not the latter.  MSTR/Saylor is doing DCA.. yet part of their problem in regards to their buying at higher prices is that the money comes available as the price goes up, which they had kind of engineered raising money that way too.  In some sense, MSTR/Saylor proclaims to be price insensitive, which is a form of DCA, yet they had been using the increases in their stock prices as a way to raise money to buy more bitcoin. .which maybe is strange in some sense as we see that it still likely ends up diluting the shares, even though they were proclaiming their practices to be accretive since they were using the money to buy bitcoin.

You can look at the 200-WMA and see what the cost would have had been for anyone buying bitcoin at a steady pace over the past 4 years, and right now the 200-WMA is nearly $57k. 

You can also calculate various DCA amounts within selected periods using DCA calculating tools, such as this one: https://newhedge.io/bitcoin/dollar-cost-averaging-calculator  It might give you the same or similar results as using AI. 

Of course, we know that MSTR really started going to town on their BTC buys starting from the November 2024 Trump pump, and that is when the money really started flowing into MSTR.  What were they supposed to do?  Keep some of that in cash?  Yeah maybe they should have had held back some money for buying on dips, but that has not been MSTR/Saylor's BTC accumulating philosophy or the premise upon which they were receiving money to buy bitcoin.

I have never said that I completely agree with MSTR/Saylor's approach, yet I am not claiming to understand it either, since it does seem to be a strategy to use other people's money to buy bitcoin that is largely controlled by the company and they generally have figured out ways to not have constraints on what they can do with money that is raised.. whether money is being thrown at them or they are taking actions to dilute shares (while saying that they are not diluting, since they are using the money to buy bitcoin).

Thank you once again, overview has been updated.


Their numbers are indeed impressive, but just a few years ago, russians were writing 4x more. Forum was generally much more activbe then though.


In a few months its going to be six 6 years since I started this, and no plans to stopping as long as I am active here.


Later today. 

They will or will not make that accusation against you of multi-accounting simply by IP address and logins. It is possibly an automatic tool triggers something against your account like restrict it to access the site again but if it is multi-accounting accusation, I believe that Betpanda or any casino will need to have more evidence for it.

They will check and investigate some accounts that login from a same IP address with other activities like how they bet, their bet styles, active bet hours and so on. In some appeals from users to such multi-accounting accusations, some casinos investigated and answered like this. I remember most about cases at FortuneJack with their answers and screenshots that blur some personal information of users.

 Sim, ele faz  uma grande contribuiçao ao BTC,
com cursos gartis pra quem nao sabe nada e etc,
mas depois que ele começou a parfticipar de podcasts,
ele esta conseguindo alcançar um publico mais seletivo,
claro, alem de ter aumentado o alcance em geral,
 surgiu varios golpistas usando o nome dele... hahaha...

Obrigado. 

...o problema de falar de tudo, que eu ja falo demais, rsss....
 entao tenho tentado  evitar de falar ..hehehe...

mas , eu nao sou muito fan de Marçal nao viu, tipo do cara ser superior... mas nesse video ae, é beminteressante, porque os dois sao inteligentes... e no final ele convence o marçal a comprar btc hahaha...
..entao to mudando o nome do topico, e tirando o nome do marçal, e vou adicionar mais uns dois ou tres videos ineteressante dele...38tao, ...
...
.. Sim ele  super semelhante ao Daniel, mas a diferença,
 que Daniel sumiu sem responder todos processos,
e ele  esta repondendo...hehhee e nao é pouco.

 no caso, esse video dele que  estou deixando aqui ,
eu acho bem interessante tambem, pois estao tres figuras importaissimas,
sendo duas, que ajudaram o btc a crescer aqui,
mas o video apesar de falarem bem sobre BTC,
assunto é sobre o sistema de trade emA I Saturno V,  do Hildenburg Melão, o Q I mais alto do Brasil.

 e mais esse do  Renato e o Hildenburg, no RedCast.





 esses videos tem muita informaçao e conhecimento.

com o tempo vou adicionando mais,
 para informaçao e conhecimento somente,

se quiser adicionar mais videos dele, à vontade.

 mais pretende voltar hehehe locomemo..

Obrigado pela recomendação, Bitmover.

Já conhecia o Antonopoulos de nome, mas ainda não tinha parado para estudar com mais atenção.
Vou começar pelos vídeos e depois ler o Mastering Bitcoin.

Agradeço por compartilhar o material.

That’s in the event they know that you are poor or broke but, hackers can be weird at times, they would just want to get along with it just to prove that they can, test themselves maybe and have an orgasm doing it.

That’s in the case of hackers only having to hack for monetary purposes. Some of them are out there for what credentials they could get from a KYC activated account, documents they can sell and use in other illicit purposes.

Yeah, there is always a weak link that would be attacked and it always comes from compromise.

Not really sure about this as it depends on the public network you are connected to and how that network is configured.
But, as you said, if you are certain that you didn’t do anything wrong and didn’t intentionally breach the service/casino’s terms, then there is nothing to be afraid of.

hacks usually happen when the password is compromised in some way. A large number of users set passwords with their birthday, children's names or similar, which is quite easy to "hack". Even the most famous hacks happened because the developer leaked the password.
Very far from what we see in the Hollywood movies

Meaning, through public Wi-Fi, hackers can see potential prospects who would be most profitable for them, and they might ignore those who only offer small, insignificant gains?

Also, in my knowledge, public Wi-Fi is really prone to hacking, and this is something the majority of people don't actually know. Some even really wish for public Wi-Fi access, especially in low-income communities or compounds. It’s no wonder so many people get hacked, because some hackers might see 'small change' as worth it if they can gather enough of it from many people to make a large sum.

Aqui pode-se falar sobre tudo, ainda mais que é algo ligado ao Bitcoin.


Tenho a mesma opinião, também não concordo muito com a parte de religião/mulheres.. mas ele se tornou o "Daniel Fraga" dessa geração em relação ao Bitcoin.. é um dos únicos que furou a bolha e é conhecido fora desse meio.

É futuros.. você não possui o token, não tem como depositar/sacar/etc.. só possui uma posição (long/short)..

Vamos ver como será o mercado spot, tem muitas exchanges que já começaram a listar ações tokenizadas, mas nenhuma contra BTC.

Can understand where those peeps coming from there are lots of ways how to hack public wifi but of course only hand full dudes can do that. While changing wifi, device are normal to people casinos won't just flag someone just because of the ip address changes, especially for a casino that accepts VPN use. As long you're not coming from a restricted country changing VPN server from country to another is just okay.

Yeah, you're right; I don't understand why some people become overly paranoid as well. The casino can spot which IPs are your most frequent ones, if you're logging in 100 times from your hometown in Germany for instance, and you login once from Poland, the casino won't suddenly flag you for one IP that may be public or a VPN.

scam top, scam bear done?

The 200 day is a decent short term goal post- but it's acted like a long term trend indicator with the volatility and limited history in this market, hence folks like Trace Mayer incorporating it so heavily. 4- and 2- year averages woulda been glacially long-term for coin in say, 2020 or earlier.

Spot bouncing ~5-10% above the 100 week provides essentially the same information: price is low, but not ugly by historical standards with recency bias removed- objectively not as bad as sentiment might indicate, and well above historical "bear markets". Equally as lukewarm as the lackluster October top.

If coin fails to retrace substantially from here and/or makes new ATHs next year, 4-year cycles may only be relevant insofar as the number of blocks between mining reward halvings.

Bitcoin is great at smashing price whisperer gurus' credibility- masterluc, planb, and now bob loukas.

There’s actually a basis for being paranoid here. Maybe you haven’t experienced issues using different Wi-Fi networks while gambling, but I’ve read reports about this before. It might not be standard across all casinos, maybe just random ones, but the risk is still there.

That’s why I’m just being cautious. If using the same Wi-Fi in one household can already be risky, then public Wi-Fi is obviously much worse. That’s the logic behind it.

JJG - I may send Phil an email just to say howdy - but just to make you OpSec happy, I'd do it from one of my alias accounts.  

Yes, I agree. When you use a VPN you also share your connection with other people so you are changing one problem for the other if you think casinos will ban you because of the same connection from many accounts.

And I think with https and encryption there is no need to use VPN for security reasons anymore. VPN is good if you want privacy and if you don't want the connection provider to know what website you access, but this is the only reason to use a VPN now.

That is correct.

The trader is in the wrong mindset, and even if he has great strategies, he is likely going to end up in times that he does not own any bitcoin and the bitcoin price shoots up  (or goes up another step on the ladder without ever coming back down), and bitcoin has done such stair-stepping several times in its history.

It is almost impossible to know when the stair stepping will occur.

Another thing is that a beginner bitcoiner (who is a normal person) usually does not have a lump sum that they can start out buying bitcoin and then figure out some sell price target so that they can then establish a buy back price target, and frequently they would have had been better to not sell and then also to just keep buying on a regular basis as their money comes in.

Let's say that a person in his mid 30's who has an income of $30k had been investing in non-bitcoin investments in his 10 years prior to getting into bitcoin, started buying bitcoin 7 years ago (like in your example - let's say December 1, 2018), and he had around $50k in his regular investments (so he wanted to take $10k out to buy bitcoin) and then thereafter he would buy $100 per week.  His goal was to be able to reach a point in which he can start to withdraw somewhere in the $80k per year from his bitcoin in 10-ish to 15-ish years, and he had a bit of flexibility in his timeline and he considers that his income might end up going up and he might be able to figure out ways to be more efficient in his spending, so he would likely increase his investment into bitcoin around 5% per year, so maybe we can say that he already averaged in vesting around $140 per week since December 1, 2018.

His initial investment of $10k ended up getting him 2.2 BTC, and his investing at $140 per week starting on December 1, 2018 caused him to invest $52k and to get 3 BTC up until now.  So therefore right now he had invested about $62k, and he has 5.2 BTC, which right now would support an income of about $29k per year, yet he wants to get to a point of being able to support an $80k per year income..

Maybe right now he is in his early 40s and he is making about $45k per year, and he figures that in the next 3-4 years, he would continue to invest anywhere between $160 to $220 per week into bitcoin, and he considers that by mid 2029 he will have more than 6 BTC, which he considers to be enough or more than enough to be able to start to withdraw at a pace of $80k per year.  And, surely, if he employs a sustainable withdrawal system, he is likely to be able to increase his withdrawal amount by 7% in dollar terms, each year.

None of this sound unrealistic for a person who might have had stayed serious in his accumulation, and sure, some folks cannot start with a lump sum, and they have to merely put together their weekly bitcoin buys from their income as it is coming in, and they have to figure an amount that is as aggressive as they are able to make it to be without overdoing it, since they will get set back if they overdo it, so whatever amount that they are able to invest into bitcoin, they may well need to also make sure that they are building up their cashflow management systems/practices (which means back up funds) as well.  Anyone who insufficiently accounts for back up funds is putting himself into a position in which his bitcoin investment will be at risk.. so there should be a priority in protecting the bitcoin investment and making sure to have enough (or more than enough back up funds) at each step of the journey in building up the bitcoin investment size.


Yes.  We can see from bitcoin's price history that the long term investors in bitcoin would all be in profits right now as long as they errored on the side of buying bitcoin and holding it.  If they sold their bitcoin or tried to trade it, then it is difficult to know their results.

Regarding the future, even though bitcoin's investment thesis seems ongoingly strong, we do not know its future price performance.  We also don't know aspects of our own execution risk management and if we are going to be successful in the future or make mistakes.

It is problematic to view the future in certainties rather than in probabilistic terms.  Sure, once the future plays out it has become certain at that time, yet if it is still in the future, then it is probabilistic with knowns, unknowns and some of them have higher likelihoods of happening than others, yet some of them are dependent on the happening or the non-happening of others.


If bitcoin's already existing pattern is that you need to be in bitcoin on around 10 days of the year in order to be profitable, and if you are fucking around trading, then you might not be in bitcoin on the days that you need to be in bitcoin in order to be profitable, so you end up fucking up an otherwise good thing because you choose to play around trying to trade it, and then you miss out because you are on in on the days that you need to be in.  Sure, you might get lucky, yet it seems problematic to be trying to take chances, when bitcoin has been one of the best, if not the best place to put money, especially over 4-10 years or longer... and sure the longer that a person has been building their bitcoin stack, the better the personal financial results... especially for those just buying and holding and not trying to trade or to sell and to try to buy back cheaper.

Premier League Discussion, La Liga Discussion, so on and so forth are full of spam? Yes, we can find spam on several pages, but i think the interaction in those threads changes, each week has its own discussion based on the performances of the teams on how they concluded the fixtures.

I'm asking for clarity, do you consider mega threads like the above to be truly low valued, considering there is always new events to discuss each week for a whole 35-38 league matches?

Even though I frequently proclaim that I don't know where we are going, the 200-WMA can tell us where we are at.. and so we can see how far the BTC price is relative to the 200-WMA, which currently with the BTC price at $87,6000 and the 200-WMA at $56,700, we are about 55% above the 200-WMA.

Why use any other indicator, except maybe because other folks are using other indicators?

The 100-WMA can be helpful to see when the BTC price might get stuck between the 100-WMA and the 200-WMA.. then maybe that could be a sign that we are in a bear market or to confirm that we had entered a bear market. The 100-WMA is right around $83,600.  By the way the 100-WMA can also be referred to as the 2 year moving average.

A problem with these indicators is that they can be gamed.. so then maybe if we stay below a price (such as the 100-WMA) for long enough, then maybe we will start to conclude that we have transitioned into a bear market.

I suppose that ultimately I like the 200-WMA since so far it is always moving up and it tends to take out a lo tof the shorter-term noise.. so it tells us where we are at, but not necessarily where we are going.. ..same with any of the indicators, even though surely we might try to extract some data from the various indicators to throw in a predictive element into the mix.

Of course, if you translate the 200 DMA into the weekly moving average then that is merely the 7 week moving average, which seems a bit short, which I suppose is the point, since we can compare the shorter with the longer and come up with some ideas about whetehr the trend has changed or if the trend is moving in a certain direction.


They just make up shit as they go.. so that they can release you without feeling legally liable.

 

I am glad that things were pinpointed and the issue was not more serious - or at least if you have a path forward to potentially just to get back to what you had been in previously and assuming recovery after taking the antibiotics and the steroids. I heard that people can have issues with prednisone.. as with any systematic medications.

Do you smoke or vape?


Hi.

Regarding cycle:  Both.  Cycle theory is still in effect, meaning that this cycle is over.  At the same time, we have not bounced out of the bull market yet... So go figure!!!!

I don't know what takes us out of this particular bull market.  I suppose if we go below the 100-WMA for any meaningful amount of time (which is currently $83.6k).. that might help to take us out of it.. but going below the 100WMA with some kind of conviction might really help.. which would be a bit devastating to see folks actually selling at that price, unless it were to just be paper bitcoin playing some attempted manipulation, which might not end well for them..

Of course, with price movements there is a time element and there is also an amount of movement element too, so maybe the next two weeks are critical^tm, to see what happens to dee cornz, if anything, or will we continue to just be stuck in our current $86k to $94k narrow range for extended periods, or maybe we will be stuck in a broader $82k to $108k range or maybe we can bounce out of such broader range in order to get real  and meaningful relief?

From my perspective, it is like an  ongoing toss-up situation.  What else is new? 

We have been in these kind of toss up places in previous times and for long periods of time, and no one really knows what might or might not happen when we are in a toss up area, even though HODLers get frustrated by the lack  of up that seems to be happening. 

 It was supposed to be the case that we were out of the stucked-ness range on December 26th from the closing of the end of the month options, but that has been almost 2 days ago and we are still flat as a pancake in the past two days. 

Is someone trying to kill us through boredom?


This is getting sicker and sicker... and Phil is just playing along with the further and further and further unnecessary, irrelevant and even invasive probing.


For sure, problematic to detach so thoroughly with reality - and the  tragedies of sex alteration surgery in young folk is problematic too.. .. which is it any worse to be thinking that man can actually travel to places outside of earth to live?  There can be some value in fantasy, yet it gets a bit detached from reality sometimes... .. which even life extension frequently seems more of a fantasy rather than a reality.

Predictions are hard to accurate and timing the market when it happens is harder. Combining price prediction and the time is impossible so just don't try to do the hard things.

Investment with DCA, buying bitcoin regularly with time, and holding your bitcoin with time for profit. Investors can have plans to accumulate and hold in one cycle, two or three cycles, even longer, but when they want to take profit, they can sell gradually too. It's like DCA out for taking profit that does not need to time the market for the top for exits.

This strategy of JJG can help too.

Personally, I ain't fan of any particular type of discussions, just be genuine/authentic, it's all I care for.


Ok, that's a good one, and I agree with it.


It's not pertaining to forum but ok.

A nossa board portuguesa só não é a maior por conta da quantidade, porém acredito que apesar de ser board menor, temos membros de qualidade de sobra.

Eu espero estar contribuindo também, quem me conhece sabe que eu não economizo em enviar sMerits, principalmente quando eu vejo um post de qualidade!

Apesar de que, tem membro aí que nunca mais me enviou merit, será por contraste de posicionamento político? 

Não que eu precise de mais merits, já que sou Legendary, eu não preciso mais subir de rank, mas tem coisas que a gente percebe 

I partly agree as well. I don't know if people think that discussions on other gambling forums are at the level of statistics professors. There are high-level discussions alongside opinions from degenerate gamblers trying to justify strategies such as the martingale with the most bizarre arguments.

I already stated my unpopular opinion. AI is a great tool for translating, and if you want to avoid accusations of plagiarism for using it for that purpose, here's a system that complies with the rules of bitcointalk:

Por outro lado, temos tido uma pequena baixa de atividade, face o que tínhamos alguns meses atras. Mas, continua haver boa qualidade, que é o mais importante.

Mas óia só! Por essa nem eu esperava, esse fim de ano está sendo muito melhor do que eu esperava, agora só falta ganhar na mega da virada... sim, eu fiz meu bolão, não me julguem, pra ocmpensar eu prometo investir boa parte do valor em Bitcoins 

Meu caro @rdluffy, pode enviar o pagamento para o endereço que está aqui no meu perfil mesmo, por favor: 3ALeGtaRdZXnPMmETeHaD3hrSxhz3sQinW


Nem vem, acho que esse é segundo ou terceiro premio que eu ganho nesses 8 anos de bitcointalk, nem mesmo na aba de Collectibles onde já participei muito eu ganhei algo até hoje.



Enfim, obrigado e parabéns pelo sorteio @rdluffy, sabemos que mais do que o prêmio em BTC, o verdadeiro valor desses sorteios é o engajamento que ele gera aqui.

I suggest that your measuring historical BTC prices from top to top is an inferior way to measure bitcoin, and it is likely better to measure bottom to bottom, including the use of averages (the 200-WMA) rather than spot price.

Currently the 200-WMA is $56,671, and [urlhttps://bitcoindata.science/withdrawal-strategy?U2FsdGVkX1+irzAPCq0pjnfyJXXUx16H4EyVJuP7sYCMqRBwXskCPJ6c4+W7Wnzxy+eDhhBwTHewHPGmU5TbhA==]4 years ago, the 200-WMA was $18,582[/url] - which is a 3x increase in the 200-WMA over the past 4 years.


There could be some value to measure from bottom to top rather than top to top, even though you are likely getting exaggerated depictions.

Another problem is your assumption that it would be a good idea to try to buy at the bottom and sell at the top, even if guys were to be capable of identifying such price extremes.  Bitcoin seems like a much better investment rather than a thing that guys should be trying to gamble with.


If a person is investing rather than trading or gambling, then he would likely be spending way more time, energy and value to just ongoingly accumulate bitcoin for his first cycle or two of being involved in bitcoin.  Of course, if he is able to reallocate from some other asset into bitcoin, then he can front load his bitcoin investment, yet most folks tend to have to invest from their regular income and/or other ways of gradually acquiring a bitcoin position rather than being able to front load their bitcoin investment.  In other words it seems a bit short-sighted to be trying to trade bitcoin rather than building up the holdings over time, such as 4-10 years or beyond... .so the initial stages is buying bitcoin ONLY and not selling.  There is no guarantee that a person will increase his bitcoin stash by selling, so it is better to just remove selling as part of the bitcoin accumulation strategy.

Time has come for yet another brief monthly overview of local boards activity, this time a little bit later than in previous months. All charts and table are made using data from @DdmrDdmr Merit Dashboard and BitList.

Communities marked with * (Pakistan, Bengali) don't have their own local boards yet.

Post activity per local board during November 2025

After the last month's increase this time we have a drop of activity; from October's 14463 posts we dropped down to 13826 posts in November. Majority of this drop happened due decreased activity in two of the most active boards, Nigerian and Russian. Drop is not huge, therefore not concerning and I am confident that it was just a little bit weaker month.

---

Active members per local board during November 2025

During the last month, 1445 members wrote at least one post in one of the local boards that are part of this overview, which is almost exactly the same as in October (1446). To be honest, I expected bigger drop than that considering the drop of the number of posts, but I guess people just wrote less, nothing else.

No changes at the top; Nigerian board far ahead the other, and Russia behind on the 2nd, after many years of dominating this, and majority of the other charts.

Merit shared per local board during November 2025

During November, 7414 merit was shared across local board, which is a big drop compared to October's 8427 merit. The main cause of this major drop can be found in Nigerian board, whose number of merit shared went from 2241 to 1565. Other boards contributed to this drop as well, but majority of this is decreased happened there. Drop would be much bigger if German board didn't have a big increase in the same period.

In November, an average merit per post across local boards was 0.54, which is an expected decrease compared to October's 0.56 and is continuation of the trend for several months now.

After losing the first spot for a couple of months, German local board is back at the top with a very high 1.66 ratio, but few others like Spanish, Italian, Arabic and Italian also have over 1+ merit per post which is an excellent ratio.
