One non obvious way Bitcoin is better than gold     (Finance)

There are a lot of ways that people talk about that Bitcoin is better than gold such as how easy it is to carry or move or hold ... unlike gold.

But there's another.

People often think that there's a fixed quantity of gold and therefore gold has an intrinsic value but that is not true. There is as much gold as people will pay to mine. So what that means is the more valuable an ounce of gold becomes the more gold appears on the market because suddenly it becomes more economic to mine more gold in areas that you couldn't mine goal before. We actually have no idea how much gold there is in the ground. We only know how much gold there is above ground but that amount is constantly increasing. So gold will always have more and more gold appearing the more valuable it gets which dilutes the value of gold which keeps it from getting more valuable.


Contrast that to bitcoin which every 4 years the amount of new Bitcoin that will become available becomes 1/2 of it what it was. Let me state that another way. Every year there is a fixed amount of new Bitcoin that can arrive. But every 4 years that amount goes down by half. This means you're more and more dependent on only the existing amount of Bitcoin that is already owned by other people which gets harder and harder to get those people to sell to you so the value goes up. So even when the value goes up, a bunch of new Bitcoin is not going to appear on the market. in fact every 4 years less and less new Bitcoin is going to appear on the market.
This means the stuff that's already mined becomes more and more important and harder to get out of other people's hands that already own it and thus more and more valuable.

But now I'm wondering if embracing accelerationism might be the fastest way to end this civilization and give us the reset we so desperately need. If so, bitcoin and AI would be the way to go.

On the other hand, chances are high it will only end civilization for the common people.

Remember 10 years ago when you would post that Bitcoin was going to be the future of international finance and soon everybody would want some back when it was a dollar and people would say it was going to crash and go to zero any minute. Well today it's 68,000 and rising 33% in 7 days     (Finance)

Why is ethereum classic going up faster than both Bitcoin and ethereum? Here's the answer     (Finance)
submitted by Crackinjokes to Finance 1 month ago (+1/-0)

Why is ethereum classic going up faster than both Bitcoin and ethereum?

Here's the answer


Ethereum classic $Etc is up 28% over the last 7 days.

Ethereum $Eth is up only 15% over the last 7 days

and bitcoin $Btc is up 21% in the last 7 days.

So why the difference?

It's really simple. Ethereum and Bitcoin are the two most established well-known well traded and most trusted cryptocurrencies out there.

Bitcoins trading at around 61,000 and ethereum trading at around 3,300 today.

What most people don't know is that the ethereum of today is not the original ethereum and the ethereum of today has changed substantially and in a very bad way compared to the old ethereum.

Yet ethereum classic is the old ethereum. It runs the early same blockchain as ethereum before the gurus that control ethereum decided to break the confidence of those who believed in the blockchain and try to manipulate the blockchain.

Right now ethereum classic trades at $33.

So imagine this:

two people have the exact same car and it's a very good car. One of the cars is owned by a very famous guy and the other is owned by someone who's not famous. The guy who has the famous car decides he's going to change something important about the car. they basically let's say turns the gas engine into oh I don't know something that runs on natural gas. Everybody likes the famous guy so they all continue to support the car that's changed from what it was to the natural gas car because the famous guy is the famous guy and everybody hears about him. And the value of the two cars go up but the car that's owned by the famous guy goes up more. But then the famous guy gets woke and he decides he doesn't want his car to run on gas at all. he wants to make it electric. He wants to make it private electric. Now this is very comparable to what the famous guys associated with ethereum did to ethereum. They decided that mining which is the distributed creation of new ethereum by a huge network of people that's almost certainly undefeatable and unbreakable uses too much electricity because they talked to too many woke climate change idiots so they decided to make ethereum no longer minable. Instead it's a bunch of people who bought into ethereum in large chunks and they control what goes on with ethereum.

so let's go back to our car analogy and just say the guy who's the famous guy who owned the original car that everybody loved first changed it to natural gas then he changed it to electric so it's no longer at all what the people who originally loved the car loved about the car. It's no longer fast
it's no longer independent and it's just a woke monstrosity but because the guy's famous and most people don't really know the details of anything people continue to value the famous guy's car highly.

But some people do know. And those people go back to the original other car that was what everybody originally liked that was not owned by the famous guy. That's ethereum classic. And ethereum classic is the original car that everybody liked and everybody valued but it just wasn't on by the famous guy.

Meanwhile the famous guy's car has gone up and up but everybody forgot about the other car and the other car is selling for one 100th the price. Now it's the original car.
it does what the original cars were meant to do. it hasn't gotten woke. it didn't switch to electric. it didn't get rid of mining. it runs on the original blockchain and it runs all the programs at the other one does but it's trading at 100th of the price.

That's ethereum classic trading at about $33 while woke ethereum that's been changed trades at $3,300!

So is it any surprise that the more people learn that the original ethereum has been changed and altered just like that car owned by the famous guy was but the other car that was originally what people liked with distributed mining and all the other things that runs the original blockchain and runs all the ethereum programs and all the ethereum languages is sitting there at 1/100 the price?

Is it any wonder why people looking at that don't say "wait a minute actually not only is this one the original ethereum and not only is it not going woke and not only does it still have miners provide all kinds of safety and support and value functions to original cryptocurrency but it runs all the programs does all the other things and it's one 100 the price!"

So don't be surprised when during the halving as Bitcoin going up and everybody and dragging all the other cryptocurrencies up with it if ethereum classic doesn't go up and continue to go up more than all the other cryptocurrencies just like it is doing now. Because it's got two things going for it.

Number 1. it is ethereum. It's the original ethereum that hasn't been changed and didn't go woke.

And 2. it's trading at 100th the price of its matched pair woke ethereum and more and more people are going to see the disparate value in ethereum classic.

Etc symbol is Ethereum classic

Non woke and original with full miner support

Eth symbol is Ethereum. the Ethereum that was changed and went woke and is more centrally controlled and no longer supported by miners.

Discloser. I own some of both but I expect my ethereum classic holdings to grow at a much faster rate than my ethereum holdings for the reasons stated.

It's just an opinion and this is not Financial advice.

Post sectipt

The famous woke guy is of course Vitalik Buterin. The newly woke cryptocurrency billionaire who programmed the original ethereum or much of it and now abandoned most of what he did principal wise.

He got woke and eliminated miners from ethereum around 2022. Most people who are investing in crypto still don't understand the DraStic change that this indicated and the insecurity of the following ethereum and the step away from one of the founding principles of a cryptocurrency blockchain which is a distributed Network that is very hard to hack or overcome with a 51% attack

This is my post from yesterday and it got the usual number of down votes from a couple of anti Bitcoin extremists that exist on every platform

https://www.voat.xyz/viewpost?postid=65dde4d3793c4


Reminder that in the past it has often gone up 10 times around a havening and this time we have the added pressure of hundreds of millions of new dollars that are easily accessible to bitcoin through the ETFs that were just approved last month. So we now have all the major Financial houses with an easy-to-use Financial instrument for all retirement funds and consumers with regular stock market accounts Etc to invest in Bitcoin without having to learn how to buy on a Bitcoin exchange or use a Bitcoin atm. Quite frankly no one knows what the effect of that additional source of funds will be on the price but I can only believe it's going to be a tremendous new amount of money chasing Bitcoin and we've already seen evidence of that as the ETFs or rapidly buying up the loose Bitcoin that's being laid around and hitting the wall of the limited supply that is provided by the mining efforts every day.


I urge you to look at yesterday's post for links to a lot of graphs and other financial analysis and other background on all this.

Two months ago I pointed out that Bitcoin was going through a halvening cycle and ETFs were getting approved which was guaranteed to increase demand as new supply was cut in half so it was a mathematical certainty price would go up. It was at 43,000 then. It's 57,000 now.

The halvening is end of April.


https://www.voat.xyz/viewpost?postid=6571fa8e2e247

it's been going up 5% to 10% every week. The ETFs which are run by the major investment houses and constitute a huge new amount of money that will be interested in buying Bitcoin have been steadily buying Bitcoin and they have nearly exhausted the supply that was available from-new mining sources. In other words the Bitcoin that we're laying around in other investment pools. They've pretty much bought all those up now. That means the pressure is really going to be on.


This website with its graph shows how ETFs have been gobbling up the new supplies in the old supplies of Bitcoin so fast since they were approved a couple of months ago https://heyapollo.com/bitcoin-etf

Even without the ETFs traditionally every four years during the se halving cycles as the price goes up the media begins to cover how Bitcoin is back and then it gets ranked as the best performing investments of the last quarter then of the last year then Joe consumer reads about that and decides they need to buy into Bitcoin then they have stories about kids being millionaires from buying bitcoin. Then people start mortgaging their houses to buy Bitcoin which usually ends up being the top of the cycle. Usually the top of the cycle is between 4 and 10 times with the previous high was at the last four year cycle. The previous high was about 60,000 3 1/2 years ago. Now we don't know what the effect of the ETF huge new demand will be on that cycle but it is a new source of demand so mathematically it puts higher pressure on the price. How it will affect the peak as well as the fall which typically happens after the peak but it never goes lower then it's previous high. Well we just don't know. At this moment February 27th Bitcoin is $57,000 2 months ago it was $43,000.

A reminder you do not have to buy a whole bitcoin. You can put his little as $100 or any amount into bitcoin. You can do it through any number of exchanges such as Gemini by Nance coinbase and many others. You do need to set up an account with them which usually takes a day or two or three to get cleared. You could also buy Bitcoin through Bitcoin ATMs which are located in many cities in the country. Bitcoin ATM is looks exactly like a little third party ATM you would see in a 7-Eleven or other type store. Be prepared they do require that you show ID like a license to get cleared to use the atm. This is because there are money exchanger and they have to be registered in the United States and they must be able to report your transactions to the IRS just like your stock brokerage account does. This is not wrong that they do this it's not a sign that they're going to scam you. It's a legal requirement.

Bitcoin is now been around for over 10 years. We've heard all the stories about how it's a scam how they were going to outlaw it how China was going to make it go away how it was used for criminal activity how all these other things meanwhile the big Jewish bankers that were getting run around by this because it was escaping the Federal reserve system more secretly setting up means to buy as much as they could. Because it's been the greatest transfer of wealth in the history of the country for truly low income low wealth people who got in early. We're probably nowhere near the final high of Bitcoin since pension funds and other things have just started investing in it and it's highly likely that every pension fund and investment fund in the world will need to own a good percentage of their funds in Bitcoin because without it they will not perform well and their customers will demand it. The last high price for the last cycle of Bitcoin was $60,000. We're just now approaching that so that's really the starting point. Usually the next high is between 4:00 and 10 times the previous high.

Typically after the news media and everybody is covered in and every person who wants to get in at the last minute at the height of the the cycle starts mortgaging their home to throw it into Bitcoin that's typically the peak. After the it typically falls. You don't want to buy at the peak. You can't buy at the bottom because the bottom happened at 15,000. We're now at 57,000.

If you don't really understand Bitcoin I want to get into financial analysis of it I recommend looking for YouTube videos with a guy named Michael saylor Or Max Keiser. They've been talking about it for years they've been invested in it for years they understand the distributions of assets that the world has and what draws large investments to different investment assets and they understand the concepts of scarcity and money transfer and all the other aspects of this and they will give you a good Financial and money philosophy background in what Bitcoin is as money and why it's better than other forms of money and why it's better than gold and other kinds of limited scarcity reserves that people typically have run to.

The following is a logarithmic price chart of Bitcoin with the halvening cycles marked
Please note this is a logarithmic price scale with the prices on the right hand side. This means every little tick mark is a 10x increase in price. It is not a linear increase in price it is a 10x increase in price.
https://bitcoinblockhalf.com/images/bitcoin-halving-chart.png

The following article explains what it is
https://bitcoinblockhalf.com


One good thing about Bitcoin is it is not dependent on earnings of a company or management of a company. It exists and grows in investment value because it's a scarce resource that no one can hack. Even the supply of gold can be increased as its price goes up. As the price of gold goes up more gold miners go out and it's profitable for them to mine more gold. This does not happen in bitcoin. In Bitcoin every 4 years the new supply mathematically programmatically and unhackably is reduced by half. This is why Bitcoin has outperformed gold as a scarcity reserve of wealth by thousands and thousands of times.


Don't think you've quote missed it. Don't think if only I had gotten in early. It's still very early. People who bought Bitcoin at one penny so sold at a dollar because they thought that was maybe the top. People who bought five at $5 sold it $50 or $100 because they thought maybe that was the top. People who bought it 100 sold it a thousand because they thought oh surely that's the top it won't go higher than an ounce of gold. Then Bitcoin easily sell past the price of an ounce of gold. In Bitcoin went to $10,000 and some people sold. Then it went to 20 and people sold. Then it went to 60 and people sold. Listen Bitcoin hasn't even approached the total market cap of gold yet and gold is a relatively minor investment pool in the big money scheme of the world. If Bitcoin just equals gold in market cap one Bitcoin will be over $300,000 each. Most people who've studied it expect Bitcoin to far exceed the market cap of gold. They expect every major pension fund and every other asset allocation fund to own a substantial percentage of their assets as Bitcoin as the true scarce resource that's infinitely tradable in the world. If that happens this means Bitcoin will be over a million dollars and there have been large investment advisors saying that in 30 years it may be worth a billion dollars. So do yourself a favor and if you've got $10 or $100 or something throw some in there. But don't buy it and then jump around every time the price jumps around and get scared and sell it and don't mortgage your house to buy it and don't go into debt to buy it. Bitcoin does go up and down but it always goes up up up up and then it only goes down partly of what it's gone up. That's been the history anyway

Now here's the normal disclaimer this is not Financial advice I can't read the future no one can something could happen that could cause Bitcoin to crash to absolute zero but it hasn't happened in the last 10 years and certainly people have tried and every major bank and every major finance Company Black Rock everybody else is all investing in it now so hey you know the world could end tomorrow too. A meteor could hit and everything could die. Yep of course that's true. Make your own Financial decisions.

A story of a Bitcoin denier.     (Finance)

When I hear people say bitcoins a scam and all these things that just reminds me of this redditor.

There was a redditor who was on all the cryptocurrency forums and this was before Bitcoin went over the price of 1 oz of gold. And he was telling everybody that Bitcoin was a scam and it was a Ponzi scheme and it was going to collapse any day and on and on and on.

And he was prolific he was everywhere every time anybody posted anything and explain what Bitcoin was he was there with his Ponzi scheme speech and saying how it was going to collapse and everything

Well guess what. Turned out this guy used to have something like a thousand bitcoins that he had gotten when they were under a penny each.

And when they went to something like 10 cents or a dollar he sold them all because he thought he had gotten away with something and it was all going to collapse and that was the end and you know he probably got a couple of video games with it and maybe a PlayStation 2.

Well of course even at that point when Bitcoin was still under $1,000 he realized that he had basically blown the biggest lottery ticket he was probably ever going to win in life.

and if you can imagine how that would feel. The psychic break it would cause.

To him in order to not admit that he had made possibly the biggest mistake of his life he had to believe and hope that Bitcoin was going to collapse. Because if it did collapse even if it collapsed at $10,000 a Bitcoin and he could have made a lot more money he would have felt justified that he did not make the biggest mistake of his life when he sold Bitcoin for a dollar or whatever the hell he sold it for.

It would sort of be like if you dug through your old laundry and you found the winning lotto ticket for $100 million but you found it one day too late after the expiration period to redeem it. That's how this guy must have felt.

And so whenever I see these people that pop up whenever there's a positive story about Bitcoin and they'll download it furiously and they'll talk about how it's a Ponzi scheme or how it's all a Jew trick or that the CIA fixed it all or that the massage is going to take it all over it's just one day away from Total collapse or it's all a Ponzi scheme I always think yeah they're the guy that either had some and sold it all and ruined their chance or they just been too scared and they've missed the boat and they feel like they've missed the boat.

And actually the good news for them is that even if they did screw up in the past and they sold way too early or even if they did miss the boat and not buy when they could have bought 5 or 10 years ago when they first heard about Bitcoin but they were too scared the fact is no one has missed the boat. Because you can still invest $100 or $1,000 or $10 and the likelihood is if all you can afford to invest is $10 the likelihood is in five or 10 years you invested in Bitcoin is going to be worth more than all the other savings and investments that you will possibly make. That's what's happened to anybody who invested in Bitcoin even if they invested a small amount in Bitcoin over the past five or 10 years. And Bitcoin is probably nowhere near the top. Heck it just became an official investment vehicle through ETFs 2 months ago. So rather than complain and say it's a Ponzi scheme and feel like they've made the tragic mistake of selling too soon which maybe they did they can still incredibly improve their lives with a likely purchase of some bitcoin.

So you know that just is relating a story that I know to put into perspective these people who pop into the groups and say it's a Ponzi scheme or come up with some other outlandish explanation you know which hasn't held up for past 10 years but they still think it's going to hold up tomorrow and perhaps it's a message of Hope for those people that they really haven't missed the boat and it's not too late and if they did make a mistake or they feel like they missed the boat they can still put something in there and in all likelihood it will grow to be their best investment and if they can't put a lot in there and it doesn't grow to be their best investment well you know at least they haven't lost a lot of money.
