Just bought my first Bitcoin.

I had a post before on how to send $10,000+ back to the Philippines fast since my father was in critical condition and they need money ASAP. Traditional wire transfers will take me 8 business days, excluding weekends and some BS verifications, calls, and papers.

Someone recommended me Bitcoin and that piqued my interest. I spent 3 days of researching and I'm sold - Bitcoin will be part of my retirement plan. Sending money back to the Philippines is a bit hassle for me, especially when I'm sending my retirement savings in large amounts since I'm planning to retire there.

My brother and I will test sending $5,000 for the next couple of months through Trust Wallet.

Also, what's the general consensus here when it comes to brands for hard wallets?

But I’d also like to take this opportunity to write about Bitcoin more broadly as someone who has been following it for more than a decade and I’ll try to do so without complicating the conversation for anyone unfamiliar with Bitcoin. The TechSpot article cites a non-peer-reviewed National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) working paper from Igor Makarov and Antoinette Schoar. NBER claims to be non-partisan but it is a private NPO funded by the likes of Bill Gates foundation . The chairman of NBER, Karen Horn, is a former president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland and Head of Int...

Under here: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/ They have links to https://bitcoin.com/ and https://forum.bitcoin.com/ which are no longer BTC sites; they're BCH sites.
