At this point, the chances of Bitcoin dying are next to impossible


The worst that could happen to Bitcoin was that it would become some obscure decentralized internet network with no real value. But at this point in the game, it's too big to shrink away into infamy. Wall Street is buying, hospitals are starting to accept it, banks are accepting it, stores are accepting it, PEOPLE are accepting it. It's too far adopted at this point for the dominos of adoption to stop falling. We're on a path that leans in an overwhelming direction towards Bitcoin's continued growth and adoption in this world. It was always a Binary equation when it started, and at this point, it's only got 1 way to go. Do you think Grayscale's clients who own the over 450k Bitcoins are going to want to let them go? MicroStrategy who bought it as a treasury financial reserve asset? Any of these guys who will adopt in at the pro level of the financial world? We're at the brink of another parabolic run, and even if Bitcoin repeats history and 1000% jumps, then dumps 80%, do you think these guys would sell? Even after the drop, they'll still be over 200% on whatever they owned pre ATH. AKA, 20k.​These guys are going to see what we all saw after our first parabolic runs. They're going to see what happened, look at the history and see that it does this every halving, and realize what this truly is, and where it is headed. And these are hodlers who are already experienced in holding over 10 years, 20 years, 50 years, 100+^F'ing years. These are the same institutional buyers pumping the stock market right now despite this pandemic. Once they get a taste of Bitcoin, they won't stop doing everything they can to get more. The volatility will slow down, the growth will become more consistent, boring, and predictable even, just as the stock market is today. But the math holds true; once these guys are fully adopted, and all the adoption dominoes have fallen; Bitcoin will be over 10 million per coin. Then growth will probably be as boring and predictable as the stock market. The math will dignify it to still grow faster than the stock market does today, but boring with no massive swings in price as we see today where you can buy at a 50% discount just 1 day later. By then, most companies will probably have already converted their stocks into their own cryptocurrencies of sorts. It's the only logical next step; cuts out the stockbroker middlemen, just like Bitcoin cuts out the banks. All I know is before this next run happens, you'll want to get in, like now; before this next run even starts pricing over 20k. Because after this whole next run up and drop is said and done, you'll be lucky if we ever see a 20k Bitcoin again. The best chances will be a drop to 30k if we break just over 100k, or 70k if we break just over 300k. That's if we even get the 80% drop that history has shown this time with these old school investors now joining the game now.​Buy now, before we break 20k. Hell, keep buying whenever you can until we hit 20k again. I can guarantee you; after 8 years of buying through these markets, there is no better time to buy than right before the start of a parabolic run. Sure, you'll wish you'd have bought when it was at an all-time low price period, but then you'd have to wait potentially up for 4 years for the next parabolic run to start after a halving to experience any of the historical crazy price run action you've heard so much about. Buying 6 months after a halving like now puts you on the financial rocket ship that is Bitcoin, right before takeoff, making you able to experience the ride that has made thousands of people addicts to this decentralized network over the last 10 years. IN the next 10 years, it will be millions of addicts; in the next 30, it will be billions. And the price, well the price will be numbers we think today as impossible. Because if you think 10 million is where this bad boy is stopping, then you really don't understand what will happen when the owners of quadrillions in value, become addicted to a decentralized network that's capped out at 21 million coins, and those owners of those quadrillions in value begin to move their asset holdings into Bitcoin in order to feed their addiction to this decentralized network that many of us have grown to know. They'll being to move their assets into it like a crackhead selling their mom's TV just to score an ounce of meth after experiencing this financial ride. *Buy every chance you can, every paycheck, hop on this boat before it's too late and you miss another opportunity of insane ROI*. Don't get me wrong, even in buying in on the next cycle, you'll still be exponentially profitable if you hold for the long run. But every time we have a parabolic run, that exponential potential becomes less and less. Although exponential none the less. The 10k dollars per Bitcoin range will be looked at in 50 years like we look at the days of Bitcoin being worth less than a penny per Bitcoin today. Hell, 10 years from now will be looking at a 10k per Bitcoin price like we look at buying Bitcoin at 20$ a coin today. via /r/Bitcoin https://bit.ly/2YStRzC

Apart from the normal "buy this altcoin instead for x and y reasons" the head moderator himself comes in and deliberately and knowingly gives a link to a site that sells an altcoin. To make it worse, it is his own site that he directly profits from.

I have already reported it to the Reddit admins, people being this dishonest need to get ejected from cryptocurrencies IMO. They definitely should not be running subreddits.

Bitcoin Newcomers FAQ - Please read!


Welcome to the /r/Bitcoin Sticky FAQYou've probably been hearing a lot about Bitcoin recently and are wondering what's the big deal? Most of your questions should be answered by the resources below but if you have additional questions feel free to ask them in the comments.It all started with the release of the release of Satoshi Nakamoto's whitepaper however that will probably go over the head of most readers so we recommend the following videos for a good starting point for understanding how bitcoin works and a little about its long term potential:Video 1: Introduction to Bitcoin - Andreas AntonopoulosVideo 2: The Trust MachineVideo 3: Bitcoin 101 - Balaji SrinivasanSome other great resources include Lopp.net, the Princeton crypto series and James D'Angelo's Bitcoin 101 Blackboard series.Some excellent writing on Bitcoin's value proposition and future can be found at the Satoshi Nakamoto Institute.Some Bitcoin statistics can be found here and here. Developer resources can be found here. Peer-reviewed research papers can be found here.Potential upcoming protocol improvements and scaling resources here and here.The number of times Bitcoin was declared dead by the media can be found here (LOL!)Key properties of BitcoinLimited Supply - There will only ever be 21,000,000 bitcoins created and they are issued in a predictable fashion, you can view the inflation schedule here. Once they are all issued Bitcoin will be truly deflationary. The halving countdown can be found here.Open source - Bitcoin code is fully auditable. You can read the source code yourself here.Accountable - The public ledger is transparent, all transactions are seen by everyone.Decentralized - Bitcoin is globally distributed across thousands of nodes with no single point of failure and as such can't be shut down similar to how Bittorrent works. You can even run a node on a Raspberry Pi.Censorship resistant - No one can prevent you from interacting with the bitcoin network and no one can censor, alter or block transactions that they disagree with, see Operation Chokepoint.Push system - There are no chargebacks in bitcoin because only the person who owns the address where the bitcoins reside has the authority to move them.Low fee scaling - On chain transaction fees depend on network demand and how much priority you wish to assign to the transaction. Most wallets calculate on chain fees automatically but you can view current fees here and mempool activity here. On chain fees may rise occasionally due to network demand, however instant micropayments that do not require confirmations are happening via the Lightning Network, a second layer scaling solution currently rolling out on the Bitcoin mainnet.Borderless - No country can stop it from going in/out, even in areas currently unserved by traditional banking as the ledger is globally distributed.Trustless - Bitcoin solved the Byzantine's Generals Problem which means nobody needs to trust anybody for it to work.Pseudonymous - No need to expose personal information when purchasing with cash or transacting.Secure - Encrypted cryptographically and can’t be brute forced or confiscated with proper key management such as hardware wallets.Programmable - Individual units of bitcoin can be programmed to transfer based on certain criteria being metNearly instant - From a few seconds to a few minutes depending on need for confirmations. Transactions are irreversible after one or more confirmations.Peer-to-peer - No intermediaries with a cut, no need for trusted third parties.Portable - Bitcoins are digital so they are easier to move than cash or gold. They can even be transported by simply memorizing a string of words for wallet recovery (while cool this method is generally not recommended due to potential for insecure key generation by inexperienced users. Hardware wallets are the preferred method for new users due to ease of use and additional security).Scalable - While the protocol is still being optimized for increased transaction capacity, blockchains do not scale very well, so most transaction volume is expected to occur on Layer 2 networks built on top of Bitcoin.Divisible - Each bitcoin can be divided down to 8 decimals, which means you don't have to worry about buying an entire bitcoin.Designed Money - Bitcoin was created to fit all the fundamental properties of money better than gold or fiatWhere can I buy bitcoins?Bitcoin.org and BuyBitcoinWorldwide.com are helpful sites for beginners. You can buy or sell any amount of bitcoin (even just a few dollars worth) and there are several easy methods to purchase bitcoin with cash, credit card or bank transfer. Some of the more popular resources are below, also check out the bitcoinity exchange resources for a larger list of options for purchases.Cash appGeminiSwanBitstampBitFinexXapoKrakenCexLocalBitcoinsLibertyXP2P exchange list (decentralized)Here is a listing of local ATMs. If you would like your paycheck automatically converted to bitcoin use Bitwage.Note: Bitcoins are valued at whatever market price people are willing to pay for them in balancing act of supply vs demand. Unlike traditional markets, bitcoin markets operate 24 hours per day, 365 days per year. Preev is a useful site that that shows how much various denominations of bitcoin are worth in different currencies. Alternatively you can just Google "1 bitcoin in (your local currency)".Securing your bitcoinsWith bitcoin you can "Be your own bank" and personally secure your bitcoins OR you can use third party companies aka "Bitcoin banks" which will hold the bitcoins for you.If you prefer to "Be your own bank" and have direct control over your coins without having to use a trusted third party, then you will need to create your own wallet and keep it secure. If you want easy and secure storage without having to learn computer security best practices, then a hardware wallet such as the Trezor, Ledger or ColdCard is recommended. Alternatively there are many software wallet options to choose from here depending on your use case.If you prefer to let third party "Bitcoin banks" manage your coins, try Gemini but be aware you may not be in control of your private keys in which case you would have to ask permission to access your funds and be exposed to third party risk.Note: For increased security, use Two Factor Authentication (2FA) everywhere it is offered, including email!2FA requires a second confirmation code to access your account making it much harder for thieves to gain access. Google Authenticator and Authy are the two most popular 2FA services, download links are below. Make sure you create backups of your 2FA codes.Google AuthAuthyOTP AuthAndroidAndroidN/AiOSiOSiOSWatch out for scamsAs mentioned above, Bitcoin is decentralized, which by definition means there is no official website or Twitter handle or spokesperson or CEO. However, all money attracts thieves. This combination unfortunately results in scammers running official sounding names or pretending to be an authority on YouTube or social media. Many scammers throughout the years have claimed to be the inventor of Bitcoin. Websites like bitcoin(dot)com and the btc subreddit are active scams. Almost all altcoins (shitcoins) are marketed heavily with big promises but are really just designed to separate you from your bitcoin. So be careful: any resource, including all linked in this document, may in the future turn evil. Don't trust, verify. Also as they say in our community "Not your keys, not your coins".Where can I spend bitcoins?Check out spendabit or bitcoin directory for millions of merchant options.

Remember that the Federal Reserve loots the American people every single day through masterful mis-education and slight of hand. This kind of looting is considered A-OK. Opt-out of the madness. Buy Bitcoin, so you don’t have to loot convenient stores to get ahead.

The Fed’s looting is based in cowardice, mis-education, and deceit, but the media says “no problem here, move along now.”

The People’s looting is based in desperation, risk-taking, and even courage to risk one’s own safety and do whatever it takes to get ahead/survive, but the media condemns the People looting as barbaric and never asks why the People have to resort to stealing.

Just Buy Bitcoin, so that you can take back control of your time aka your life.

Bitcoin and Metaphysics: Money is the metaphysical tool that attempts to objectively express a community’s subjective values, wants, and needs. From this standpoint, Bitcoin is the greatest form of money ever created.

USD on the other hand only expresses the values, wants, and needs of the most powerful and elite members of society.

600k Hotels To Start Accepting Bitcoin

The ModiHost team believes that the future belongs to digital technologies and cryptocurrencies. The latter will soon supplant fiat money as the new economic age has arrived. In the new economic system there will be no place for traditional money.

Cryptocurrencies will be used everywhere, and the evidence for that can already be seen in world news.

Agoda, a digital travel platform that is part of Booking Holdings, has partnered with Travala.com, a cryptocurrency-friendly booking platform.

With this partnership over 600,000 hotels in some 200 countries now allow travellers to book accomodation with Bitcoin, Ethereum, Binance Coin and over 25 other digital assets.

Why I am still Bullish on Bitcoin After Hodling it for more than 4 years

I started buying btc ( which I never sold afterwards) in 2016, and have been holding only btc since then. I continue to hold it, and even buy it, even though today my so called btc stash is 20x its original price.

Here is my opinion about btc's expected price action in next 2-3 years

  • first point, there will be no parabola like late 2017, where btc price went 4x in about 4 months. 4x price action in such short range, will not happen, Because there are many exchanges like bakkt and cme, which allow shorting of btc. Which means that price action will not be drastic.
  • the upward movement in price will continue for next 2-3 yeras, and beyond. Overall, I expect it to be at 18k at EOY, and at about 25k-40k at end of 2021.
  • The price rise is happening due to demand from gbtc ( normal 401-k holders), and demand from recent buyer like Microstrategy , which is a mnc that bought staggering 22k btc. That 22k btc, btw, took price from 9k to 11k. So here you can see demand directly taking price higher. I keep a tight watch on gbtc, and its accumulating btc at a drastic pace, spurred by demand from normal fellows mostly who are buying it for their 401-k. On top of that, get this, gbtc has no redemption program. Which means it only buys btc, ( and sells it only for fees if any).
  • And now Fidelity is coming with its own Bitcoin Fund ( and only Bitcoin). That shows the demand for Bitcoin from the investors at large.
  • Governments have already realized they cannot stop btc. Trump had told Mnuchin in 2018 to "go after btc'. But mnuchin could not do anything, because there is not much he can do. So on that front, bitcoin has proven ( to the extent) its strength as decentralized network which can't be brought down easily be governments. That's why microstrategy bought it too - they aren't fools to put so much money in something Mnuchin could bring down overnight by a decree. So there will be no such decree. At some point, govt's will likely enforce control ( using tax as reason, for example), and it will reduce Bitcoin's attractiveness, but its hard to look that far into future, because as of now, that is not what's happening.
  • Another bullish point is ABSOLUTE lack of any alternative to btc. The top 10, apart from btc, is a shitshow. XRP is an out and out scam. and even others are totally no shots and scams. So Bitcoin is the only thing in this market.
  • I think anyone who buys btc today, and holds for next 10 years, can get returns of about 10x-15x. And the thing is, the risk is very low, so I strongly recommend people to buy at least 10-20% of their portfolio in btc. This is for EVERYONE. I myself am about 80% into btc.
  • Finally, don't buy btc if you can't stand falls as much as 75% ( in few months), and more. This is speculative asset. The base price is defined by long term holders, but the daily market price is defined by traders, who will sell all btc they hold ( even as people like me will not do that). So the price can flucuate, and I recommend you only buy if you can hold it for minimum 4 years.

How to mine Bitcoin profitably in 2020

Bitcoin is considered to be the very first cryptocurrency — it appeared on the market more than 10 years ago. At that time, the mining industry was just beginning to gain momentum, and it was easy to make money from mining Bitcoin. It was enough just to download the software, install it on your computer and start mining.

But since then the situation has changed significantly — now many people are engaged in Bitcoin mining, and it has become not so easy to make money on it. But it is still possible, and this article will show you how to mine Bitcoin profitably in 2020.

Choose reliable equipment

Your income directly depends on the right choice of equipment. First of all, pay attention to ASICs, because they are increasingly displacing GPU rigs from the market. When choosing devices, consider the following factors:

  • How much do you pay for electricity and how much does an ASIC consume per terahash? Choose the device that consumes the minimum. Otherwise, you will have to spend most of your income on paying your electricity bills.
  • What overclocking profiles are available and how much power does the ASIC need to reach them? Choose the model that will allow you to achieve the maximum hashrate, while consuming as little as possible.
  • How easy is it to get spare parts for an ASIC and have it repaired in your city? Choose a device that can be “put back in line” as quickly as possible, as prolonged repairs mean equipment downtime and loss of profit.

Pay attention to the following models:

  • Bitmain Antminer S19 Pro (hashrate up to 110 TH/s and energy saving up to 29,5 J/Th);
  • Bitmain Antminer S17 Pro (easy to overclock, high reliability);
  • Old generations of Bitmain Antminer Т17 (easy to overclock, high durability);
  • Innosilicon T3 (an improved cooling system).

Take care of ventilation and cooling

ASICs consume a lot of energy, and almost all of it is converted into heat. If devices overheat, their chips will suffer, which will negatively affect hashrate and your income. Accordingly, in order to mine Bitcoin profitably and without downtime, you need to take care of ventilation and cooling.

  • Clean your devices from dust regularly — clean ASICs are less likely to overheat.
  • Make sure that the room is ventilated enough — if possible, open windows and doors, and install fans, directing them so that the airflow will remove the heat generated by the ASICs from the room.
  • Do not install devices too close to each other. Leave some space between them for better ventilation.
  • Try immersion cooling (immersing devices in a container of dielectric fluid). Using this method, you can eliminate the purchase of air conditioners and cut costs.

Join the pool

By mining Bitcoin on a pool, not individually, you will receive payments more often, which means that your income will be much more stable. When choosing a pool, consider the following factors:

  • Payout model (the most profitable option is PPS+, which means that you will receive a payment for each share that you submit);
  • Pool fee;
  • Transaction fees;
  • Proximity of servers (the closer the server is, the more stable the mining process and, accordingly, your income are).

Install custom Hiveon ASIC firmware

At the moment, profitable Bitcoin mining is almost impossible without custom firmware, and Hiveon ASIC is the best available option:

  • Using the downvolting function, you can reduce your energy consumption and cut costs on paying electricity bills. For example, on the stock firmware ASIC Antminer S17E consumes 2700 kW, while the hashrate is 60 TH/s. With the Hiveon ASIC firmware, the device consumes much less power (1314 kW), and the hashrate remains at the same level.
  • Thanks to the overclocking function, you will be able to achieve a higher hashrate and increase your income.
  • The temperature watchdog reboots the ASIC or stops the mining process if it reaches a critical point, so your devices don't overheat.
  • You can also set up the desired temperature of the chips. The temperature will be maintained automatically, which will positively affect their performance.
  • The hashrate watchdog reboots the device if the hashrate drops below normal. This will help you to avoid loss of profit.
  • The autotuning function adjusts the frequencies of the chips to increase the hashrate and maintain the level of power consumption. This is especially useful for chips that are already worn out — they will last longer and still be nearly as effective as full-fledged working chips.
  • Thanks to the built-in wattmeter, you will always be aware of how much electricity your ASICs consume.
  • With the Hiveon ASIC firmware, you can use the Hive OS monitoring and management system for free. In this way, you will cut your costs and be able to manage thousands of devices at the same time.

As you can see, profitable Bitcoin mining is still possible even in 2020. To do this, you need to responsibly approach the matter of choosing equipment, provide devices with ventilation and cooling, join the pool and improve the devices with custom firmware.

In bullish reasons for BTC today:


JP Morgan is investing and on the board at ConsenSys, bringing JP Morgan to ethereum. So the biggest banks are now moving to blockchain in many applications. It’s a complete 180 from Jamie Diamond blasting crypto a few years ago.There appears to be a Cold War race right now between the US and China to develop a national crypto to help stabilize troubled economic system around the world. A currency tech race seems inevitable and probably will happen extremely fast.Fidelity Investment, one of the largest asset managers in the world, has now opened a Bitcoin Fund and released a long report with a stock-to-flow analysis putting Bitcoin at $1,000,000 by 2025. This is the type of shit Mcafee would say in the past, now our biggest financial institutions are saying it.At this point we see the biggest financial institutions and the biggest nation’s governments are getting into Defi. The general market is going to see that Bitcoin isn’t going away and is a safe and reliable asset. The greatest wealth transfer in history is going to happen in the next 10 years.
