A reminder: do not sell Bitcoin to Wall Street's ETFs! Buying & holding is not a matter of accumulation anymore, it is to protect Bitcoin from manipulation. Scums like Dimon will use Bitcoin as their speculative bitch. The more you hold, the less slack for those rats. So, do your job: buy & hold!

BTC closing Price on New Year's Eve ( 2010- 2023)
How many Bitcoin halving cycles are left?
After this one coming up in 2024, it will be reduced to 4. Is there another halving in 4 years that will reduce it to 2? 4 years after that, 1? 0.5 after that? Or is this the last one? How will bull and bear markets behave after all the bitcoin is mined? With all the bitcoin having been mined, will that stabilize the value? Sorry for the noob question and thanks for any answers.

BitWise Bitcoin ETF Takes The Lead With $200 Million Seed
Saturday, 30 December 2023
“How much BTC do we own darling?”
My wife randomly asked how Bitcoin was doing the other day. I explained about the pending ETF and how it’s more than doubled in the last year.
The next question was how much we had invested into it. She threw out a number £x. I murmured an agreement to this. In fact the actual amount invested is approx 12x greater.
The conclusion of the conversation was that we should hold anyway (despite being in profit). My concern is if she knew the full amount she would apply pressure to sell it sooner. Obviously she will see the benefits of us holding further in the long term.
How open with your other half are you about your BTC investments?

Two sides of the Bitcoin
Heads: My 69 year old Father-in-Law recently asked me if I had any of “The Bitcoins”. Of course I told him that I do have actual Bitcoin as well as exposure to Bitcoin in my IRA. He watches Jim Cramer on CNBC but said he hasn’t heard him talk about positively about Bitcoin. I gave him a few high-level reasons as to why I believe it is a solid but still volatile investment. He was very receptive to how I explained Bitcoin to him. I also explained to him about the potential of Spot Bitcoin funds in January, 2024.
The next day he asked what stocks he could invest in that would give him Bitcoin exposure. I gave him a few suggestions for research since he wanted to do this through his Charles Schwab account. A few hours later he said he was “in” and is still interested in the Spot ETFs.
Tails: I gave my 8 year old Grandson a “gold” (made of aluminum) Bitcoin token as a gift. He thinks it is cool. He has heard of Bitcoin at school. I explained to him that the physical coin isn’t worth anything as the real Bitcoin is on the internet. He said he understood since he plays Minecraft.
He showed his Father, my 28 year old Son-in-Law, the “Bitcoin” in the case that came with the token. My SIL said, “Now you can carry that around to remind you what a horrible investment it is.” It took a lot of restraint to not retort. I have talked to my Grandson about money in general and Bitcoin specifically. He seems to understand the basic concepts I’ve discussed.
Conclusion: Not what I expected from my FIL or SIL. The older man is open minded to new concepts and the younger man has mental myopia. My Grandson will hopefully be in a future world where Bitcoin is commonplace to the masses. I’ll do my best to continue to impart knowledge concerning Bitcoin to him.

Maybe a dumb question
Fiat and crypto is a perpetual rug pull. Bitcoin is the exit.
Greed is part of human nature and everyone who is in charge of a monetary system can't help themselves and will sooner or later rug pull it's users. In crypto this happens on a smaller scale but it's more rapid, blatant and obvious, in fiat it happens on a large scale, a slower more subtle multigenerational rug pull. The long term outcome is the same.
It doesn't matter how late you are to Bitcoin it will always make sense to buy it if you can avoid becoming a victim of rug pulls.
This is true today, true 10 years from now and true 100 years from now. As long as the blockchain works without interruption it will make sense to use it as an exit.
Stocks and real estate are a good alternative as an exit strategy but stocks are subject to geopolitical and economic risks and real estate requires active management and expertise if you want to beat inflation.
Bitcoin should be the logical choice for many people.

Pretty much the title. Im confused as to why people are still buying $10-$20 worth of bitcoin on the block chain, and not doing it through the lightning network? If you consolidate your bitcoin in a lightning wallet UTXOs all compile into one when you bring them onto the chain, avoiding moving massive amounts of data that result in fees higher then what they’re moving.

I asked AI to generate images of typical subreddit users. Very accurate.
Bitcoin fixes this: Banco Santa der (Germany) refuses ti set higher online wire limit - New policy they say
Just called my bank, because the online option to set a new wire limit just disappeared. They said new policy by management forbids them to set limits > 5.000€/day.
Only Option to send a bigger amount is, to come to an office in person.
It is going to take me 10 days and 10 wires now, to pay 50k.
P.s. Funny how many buttcoin lemmings around here. Next appointment in my bank available to do such a wire: in 3 weeks. What now, you buttcoiners? Can't go to another office, as this has to be done in MY office as they say.
P.P.S Went back to the bank office now and kept yelling at the innocent cashier in front of other clients and asking why they think they can hold me away from sending my money, i got an appointment for thursday with the local director. He wants to discuss that case with me and see what he can do.

Minimum wage and Bitcoin
I think Michael Saylor pointed out one of the biggest (uh duh) moments in financial history when he pointed out that you could flip burgers at minimum wage but if you invest your savings from that job into Bitcoin in 10 yrs you'll be looking back and saying, "damn I was getting paid $1000 an hr to flip burgers because I was smart enough to save in Bitcoin.
Just started doing the math on my first years of DCAing and realizing that holy shit I technically got paid $3700 hr at a factory job because I saved my spare money in Bitcoin.
Here I am 7 years later, new job, higher pay, but my mentality will always be the same,
In 7 years time from now I'll look back and do the same math to realize I was getting paid over $100k an hr to work in a factory because I was smart and saved in Bitcoin.
Yeah... I couldn't imagine anyone else smart doing that math after Saylor pointed it and thinking my same thought experiment.

I think the so spoken "biggest wealth transfer in history" is going to be on this bull run
I have been following bitcoin since 2013 ( not rich yet ) and I have to say this is the most messed up state that the world economy has ever been on a bull cycle, not to mention the two wars going on. Some analysts argue that this bull run might be longer since the last one has ended a little earlier than people was hoping for. I seriously think that this run is going to leave no-coiners in fiat hell forever and they might be lucky enough to have 0.001 bitcoin at the end of it.
