Get every thing about BITCOIN !!!

Funded my lightning wallet with $10 and sent 1000 satoshis to a friend for the cost of 1 satoshi using Breez. Wallet setup was all automatic and so easy to use. I recall seeing a top voted comment critisizing LN over a year ago which I now see was complete BS. The comment I read was saying that LN can never catch on because in order to onboard you must perform an on-chain transaction and since bitcoin can only support around 7 transactions per second it would thus take decades to on-board the world population. Now that I've used LN I see that comment is full of shit. Yes, I myself had to perform an on-chain transaction, but my friend that I sent sats to never had to do such a thing. This means that one entity can potentially onboard MILLIONS of users with a SINGLE on-chain transaction. I think of the el salvador government and I assume they are doing exactly this. They will be sending every adult $30 worth of bitcoin. That's over 130 million dollars worth of bitcoin. They c...

My thinking is that Bitcoin is a secured bank account available for anyone in the world. Not only it embraces third countries to preserve their wealth, but the finite supply makes value go up over time incentiving people to hold long term. In that regard, why would anyone sell something that will appreciate over time for things that will lose value like better cars, better phones or fancy clothes? I mean, if we don’t really need them, we will consume less and our planet will benefit from this. If Bitcoin goes up in value on the long term as scheduled by its mathematic algorythm, it could be a way to get out of this endless growth capitalism non-sense that is polluting earth and making people more selfish.

PSA: Hey, you know how El Salvador had dollars, but when the Fed printed more, they didn't get any? (obviously). We are all El Salvador. The Fed printed money and covered the balance sheets of their own member banks against "insolvency". The rest of us, we will face higher prices later. Because we're not a hedge fund like Blackstone, Blackrock, we don't get to use the free money to buy houses. Unless you are standing close to the money spigot, their money printing is completely screwing you. Solution is to buy a hard asset like bitcoin with the fiat you've got. And/or rebalance to whatever risk/reward you think is best (I don't know your situation). Submitted June 30, 2021 at 04:24AM by walloon5 https://ift.tt/3qx3nAs

Once in a while I think by myself "lets give my mom and dad a visit", since I am obviously the most favorite son of 3. So I went there to watch some football and it was all nice and fun. All of a sudden, during the commercial brake, my dad asked: "Son, do you have money invested in Bitcoin?". I replied "of course I did.", knowing that he (as an old fashioned-, retired-, stock guy who likes to argue) was starting an argument about it. He started ranting on how it is just one big scam and "all those other bitcoins" (meaning altcoins red.) are even more so. And they have no real value or use, now or in the future. So I asked why he was thinking that, giving the fact that his statement was so absolute. The poor man based his assumption on just one (!) article in the financial times, "and other articles" but he couldn't clarify which ones. He also stated that he never seen any blockchain is use in practice. So I started to explain what ...

Google recently updated their policies regarding Google Ads and will now allow ads related to cryptocurrency exchanges and wallets provided they have registered with FinCEN. This change is set to take effect in August 2021. As you may recall, the ban was imposed in March 2018 and lasted almost three years. This easing of crypto advertising restrictions is a positive sign. Google appears to be warming up to bitcoin and cryptocurrency in general as many governments, financial institutions and private companies are increasingly liberalizing their crypto policies these days.

I am pissed because I have a strong opinion on favor of Bitcoin. And... I'm really not a person of strong opinions. I dislike having strong opinions. I had learned earlier in life that if you have a strong opinion on something, you are already losing. There must be something you did not understand yet. Yet, I am pissed, because I want to find good and convincing contrarian views on Bitcoin. I have the feeling that all of the economists writing against Bitcoin are weak and mostly doing it just out of the blue: none really give signs of understanding the protocol. Arguments such "naturally formed ponzi", "tulip mania v2.0", "deflationary=bad", "infinite value? = scam" and other analogies tend to be incomplete and always lack data or evidence. It just does not make the cut for me that you are a Nobel Prize if your text does not show that you invested the minimum time to understand the protocol.

Hello everyone, I just wanted to see what the overall consensus was on selling Bitcoin. The well-known Bitcoin advocate Mr. Michael Saylor has already stated that you should never sell your Bitcoin and that you should hold onto it for life. He argues that when you sell you're Bitcoin you're taxed, but if you hold onto it you can borrow against the Bitcoin (tax-free) at a decent interest rate. Platforms such as Block Fi offer this type of service. What do you guys think about this? If I double my investment during this next bull run it would be tempting not to sell a little bit for liquidity purposes. I do love Bitcoin and the direction it's going so I plan on investing in this for the long term regardless of short-term price fluctuations.

Bitcoin is my only tomato plant. In fact this tomato plant is the only thing I have to eat right now. It is still young, and I am extremely hungry. I don't know what I'm going to eat next month. I don't know if I'll even have the energy to make the trip home to see my family. My plant has a few small tomatoes on it, barely edible. They would maybe get me through a couple weeks or a month, but I know I'd be better off waiting until they've reached maturity before eating them. If I can wait that long, their sustenance will keep me going for much longer. My plant has a few small leaves on it, should I eat them to tide me over? Skim a little off the top? No. That would hinder my plant's ability to fully ripen, and the nourishment I'd get from its leaves isn't anywhere near that of a fully grown tomato plant. So I will be patient and wait until my plant has fat, red tomatoes before harvesting. And even then I'll save some of its seeds to plant ea...

You can read the thread here (in spanish): https://twitter.com/nayibbukele/status/1409584377915269120 I'll try to summarise it below: - The government bitcoin wallet (Chivo wallet) is a thing but any wallet will obviously work. - When using Chivo, they'll require some KYC data to protect the bitcoins of the user - Everything will be free of charge (paying, receiving and converting BTC to USD or USD to BTC). - They'll give 30$ in BTC to all users but those BTC will have to be spent and couldn't be converted to USD as it's not about giving money to their population but about giving an incentive to use BTC. - There will be 200 PoS in the country to deposit/withdraw USD on the app. ​ For now at least they're taking good decisions (this could have been a shitshow), let's hope they continue in this direction :) Submitted June 29, 2021 at 01:16PM by __short_your_euros__ https://ift.tt/2TfasJy

Although this has been repeated a million times before, I think it's still appropriate to warn new users in this space. I've seen a couple of noobs stumble upon the abovementioned sub / websites, thinking that these resources represent BTC. Indeed, they are trying very hard to conceil the fact that they are a miniscule and unimportant part of the space trying to gain significance. However, they failed doing so over the course of the last 3-4 years. In short, they are trying to push a fake Bitcoin clone called B.CH (I'm writing the dot because auto-mod doesn't like talk about alt-coins). If you don't know about the history of how these sites came about, google "the fork war" during 2017. You'll see that a faction of people split up from Bitcoin (thank god) to roll out their own shitcoin. However, at this point, they are basically a bunch of bitter propagandists, defining their community as being "against" BTC, and trying to trick noobs into ...

I consider myself an open-minded person who believes in innovation that will improve the world and make it a better place. I think the poor and underprivileged deserve a chance to improve their lives and I am not opposed to helping them out. However, I am against Bitcoin because it's obviously a scam. Eventhough I don't really know how it works or how to use it, I have the feeling that it will not improve the world or make it a better place. I think I know what it is enough to judge it without needing to learn about it because the name sounds simple. It's a coin on the internet. Eventhough I will never pretend to know how physics, neuroscience or chemistry work, I know how bitcoin works without needing to learn about it.

Hope you find it interesting and a nice addition to your own confirmation bias as to why Bitcoin is and will be lifechanging. Also, thank you for reading.

The American University of Paraguay shared on Twitter that it will accept tuition payments in bitcoin, as well as other cryptocurrencies, beginning on August 1, 2021. "From August 1, you will be able to pay all your tuition and fees with cryptocurrency," a translated version of the tweet read. "We take an important step towards innovation." The university is one of Paraguay's most prestigious educational centers and has been in operation for over 30 years. But it is still unclear how the university plans to accept or hold the BTC it receives as tuition payment on a technical level, but it has not indicated any plans to liquidate the bitcoin upon receipt. https://bitcoinmagazine.com/business/paraguay-university-will-accept-bitcoin Submitted June 28, 2021 at 02:23PM by BitcoinWide https://ift.tt/3w61RWV

Ricardo Salinas Pliego, the third richest man in Mexico, said that he wants his bank to be the first one in Mexico to accept Bitcoin. We heard about lots of banks that already have started to work with crypto, and BTC in particular. The main difference with this case is that Ricardo Salinas Pliego actually believes that BTC is a real equivalent of gold, and that fiat currencies in fact are a fraud. He says that the most significant feature of BTC is the fact that it has a total supply, which cannot be said about any fiat currency. What do you think? Is there a real difference?

No, really, think about it. This is sort of like how some developing countries skipped going from setting up landline phone systems and went straight to developing smart phone infrastructure, 3g, 4g networks instead. Also, the more people who use simple lightning wallets with simple interfaces, the more robust the system becomes. EDIT: People are saying "lightning is too difficult" without doing proper research or even going to youtube, just watch andreas give a 3 minute explanation from nearly 2 years ago here ( https://np.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/cdadss/even_andreas_antonopoulos_makes_the_comparison/ ).

Ever since I saw the adoption of bitcoin in El Zonte (a small town in El Salvador) I've thought about how great it would be if Bitcoin would get adopted in small towns all over the world. Small towns tend to have less money but with the adoption of bitcoin into their small towns, the small town's wealth would grow (assuming the price of Bitcoin goes up). Based on videos I've seen on youtube on El Zontes citizens and bitcoin some people say they've made money just from holding and others say they've lost money, which is no surprise because of its volatility. I'm very optimistic about Bitcoin, so I truly believe that any town with its own bitcoin economy will see substantial returns from just owning some bitcoin.

It becomes a self fulfilling prophecy. The more people on here saying I’ll buy when it hits $15k, $20k, $25k, etc. are shooting themselves in the foot. We want people to buy. We want new people interested in BTC and crypto and if they all believe this is going to dip, they won’t enter the market and…. The correction/dip will continue. We need buying pressure, not selling. Wouldn’t you rather have everyone going in now, in the low-to-mid $30,000s and just keep buying as it continues to stay sideways or go up? When we start hitting all-time highs, are you really going to care that you bought at $25k vs $30k? $65k to $30k is the dip. Start buying and stop talking about the hypothetical lower price you’re going to buy at. Some broken record advice… DCA. Invest 1/52nd of what you want to invest in total every week.

The Bulls will still need to price-in... Country/ies making BTC legal tender. (This was not expected in this run) New billionaires .purchasing BTC. Taproot. China losing control on mining supremacy. Inflation and Dollar printing. ​ I do not think that we have those mouth-watering fundamental goods waiting for the bulls to price-it-in during the mid-year crash, in the last bull run editions. If you utilize risk-and-reward ratio and you still have buying power, the ratio is quite obvious. It is heavily leaning towards reward.

Given that the majority of us believe that Bitcoin will increase in value over time, would u want to spend it rather than hodl and let it appreciate. Example: Let's say I purchased a car for 1 bitcoin today but next week the value of Bitcoin has doubled meaning I was probably better off using fiat. Thoughts?

...then you should root for the ETFs, bring on the "custodial" bullshit, and store YOUR Bitcoins on some exchange. Bring on the rehypothecation. Bring on the Wall St. criminals who will sell hundreds of times more Bitcoin than actually exist. Just make sure you tell people, "it's good for adoption" while you play the stooge for Wall St. criminals. Be sure to explain how your parents are too stupid to use a Bitcoin wallet, so we'll know that you inherited it from them. ETFs open the door to bad things . Rehypothecation : Look at the price of gold; it has been artificially suppressed via "paper gold". Search, "physical gold vs paper gold". ETFs open the door for evil people to suppress the price of Bitcoin by selling Bitcoins that don't exist, or, if you prefer, selling the same Bitcoin to many clients (dozens, hundreds), all at the same time.

I moved from El Salvador to the U.S when I was 14 years old (I'm 23 now), looking for better future. I look back and I wanna cry so bad for all the good that is coming to El Salvador. My country, my people have suffered enough with all the corrupt government, gangs, and violence. Now that we have an amazing President Nayib Bukele and the good news about bitcoin we can finally see a good future for El Salvador, if you guys can only imagine how happy I'm. I own a little bit of bitcoin, and hopefully I can go visit to El Salvador in December to see my family and spend a little bit of bitcoin there. :') Submitted June 26, 2021 at 12:43AM by j_isaac120 https://ift.tt/3vWsJJc

After a lot thinking, reading, and researching, last week I completed putting my savings into Bitcoin. I did it over a span multiple weeks (following the dollar-cost averaging strategy). I haven't told people that they know me about this, and not planning to (for security reasons). Here is my thinking about why I did it and things that I considered: I'm debt free and have no responsibilities (not married, no kids, etc.), so for me the time is right. I came across crypto first back in 2017, I was interested in the technical side more than the finical side. Bought a little back then, never sold it. Seen it dropped more than 50% in the short term and gained more than 200% in the long term. In the long term, it increases. I'm in it for the long term (minimum: 10 years, maximum: forever). There will be never more than 21 million Bitcoin. That's scarcity, scarcity has value. Bitcoin adoption is increasing rapidly. Everything in life has a risk factor, for me holding a...

BTC Shorts on bitfinex streted to rise today at 9:00 steadily till now, and are up 900% today ( https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/BTCUSDSHORTS/ ). BTC is steadily decreasing in price - not saying that only because of that, but it sure helps driving the price down by creating a huge sell pressure. I am not big fan of conspiracy theories and WSB blame-the-short-sellers game, but it sure looks suspicious. If you look at that shorts charts on bitfinex, they always seem to rise immensely in a single day. I suggest looking at BTC shorts for any BTC holder that wants to buy/sell. If anyone has good theories on why these shorts behave this way - let's discuss it, as I would be very interested. An obvious explanation is coordinated selling pressure by large institutional players. Edit: Over 1000% now. Noice Submitted June 25, 2021 at 08:13PM by statypan https://ift.tt/3wXsEpS

Actually half a coin. I'm a bit nervous buying in a bear market etc. Did I make the right choice? I have no plans to sell in the next few years I'm just looking for validation and saying Hi. Edit: *Please don't DM me about "quick money crypto investments" I didn't come down in the last shower!* Edit 2: I've never had seen so many valuable and helpful comments. Thank you everyone. This is a great community! Edit 3: why nervous, this is my first time investing. I do research first and know to buy when market is down but for a first timer it is scary seeing your investment down immediately.

President Bukele just announced that he is implementing a national wallet in September called “chivo” (means cool in Salvadoran slang) The government is giving 30 usd to anyone that creates an account, by law you will have to accept BTC as a company... but the wallet let’s you convert the BTC to usd immediately. He mentioned there will be two types of wallets... one for the people and one for companies. Apparently the wallet also is compatible with other Bitcoin wallets... You will be able to pay taxes with BTC... except you won’t need to pay taxes for the BTC you hold. Foreigners who come to invest in crypto in El Salvador will be granted permanent residency and will not have to pay taxes for the crypto they invest in.

China has told banks and payments platforms to stop supporting digital currency transactions. Their central bank said it had recently summoned several major banks and payments companies to call on them to take tougher action over the trading of cryptocurrencies. Banks were told to not provide products or services such as trading, clearing and settlement for cryptocurrency transactions. Authorities have ordered the closure of 26 mines last week. Last month China's cabinet, the State Council, said it would crack down on cryptocurrency mining and trading as part of a campaign to control financial risks. The day will come when a united crypto community will publicly and peacefully stand against government's trying to restrict/block it's citizens from transacting in peaceful cryptographic code on decentralised and open networks. When that day comes, I for one will be more than willing to take my place on the frontline. Submitted June 24, 2021 at 05:27PM by jam-hay htt...
