It's bitcoin and then everything else - all the sh*tcoins are a scam that solve nothing other than enriching venture capitalists that create them. Bitcoin solved the problem of digital scarcity and is perfect money. None of the others are solving jack. This part, he seems to be speaking about bitcoin. Quote “You cannot create ‘trustless’ money because money is trust. We made it up; it’s a social construct. Like all social constructs, money relies on trust forged through social consensus. You can no more create a ‘trustless’ money than you can a governmentless government or a religionless religion. The applicable words are anarchy and cult,” McKenzie stated. In terms of bitcoin, trustless means you don't have to trust a central entity. You do still trust the network and the code is open source for everyone to read. There is no leader - Satoshi was anonymous for a reason and he's likely dead. Trusting one central entity is problematic for many reasons. With bitcoin you trust everyone and everyone agrees on every transaction and the code. You're trusting consensus. I believe this should meet his requirement of a social construct. I think he just doesn't understand bitcoin well enough tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southparkcpa Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 On 2/10/2020 at 11:01 AM, Barry McCockinner said: The next halvening will be May 14th of 2020. After the first halvening, the price peaked at over 9000% above the price at the halvening date over the next year and a half. After the second halvening, the price peaked at nearly 3000% above the price at the halvening date over the next year and a half. I predict a 1000-2000% increase this time with around a 10K starting point on May 14. If you don't know what the halvening is, basically it is a reduction of the reward for mining bitcoin by 1/2. So the amount being generated daily is cut in half at the halvening. You are welcome. Any thoughts now that SVB and now Signature bank have been haulted and heavy activity with crypto cited? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crypto != bitcoin crypto is a scam and anything that isn't bitcoin is just a worse version of fiat currency bitcoin is digital gold. Failing fractional reserve banks with government bailouts does nothing but strengthen the use case for bitcoin IMO - and I did put my money where my mouth is. I know they're saying "it's not a bailout" because they're only making depositors whole and not saving the bank. They're also saying it won't be paid for by tax payers. I think they're full of sh*t on both counts playing semantics and hoping the general public is dumb enough to fall for it (they mostly are). I will say that I am glad they let the bank itself fail. Hopefully they can recover the paid out bonuses prior to the bank run. I had been stacking cash with the hope that bitcoin would have another big dip. Yesterday morning I moved more than half of that stack into bitcoin and then directly to cold storage because I was concerned there was a chance, albeit a small one, that SVB would be a contagion that caused the entire banking system to go haywire. So I protected my money from that risk by moving it into my own bank. Satoshi signed the genesis block with this message in 2009: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry McCockinner Posted July 5, 2023 Author Share Posted July 5, 2023 There are now less than 300 days until the next halving. This means the mining block reward will be cut in half from 6.25 every 10 minutes to 3.125 every 10 minutes. To put it in more relatable terminology, the new supply will be cut in half. This event happens about every 4 years and has so far has always coincided with a large upward shift in price. This may however; be the first halving to occur during a monetary tightening period. It's possible tightening is eased by the halving event though. So basically, definitely DYOR but the next several months have historically been a sweet spot for buying. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry McCockinner Posted August 22, 2023 Author Share Posted August 22, 2023 If you have any bitcoin on Binance get it the F out of there. If you have sh*tcoins on there trade them for bitcoin and get it the F out of there. I've always advocated for holding your own keys but a lot of people don't listen. It's rumored that they are possibly heading down the FTX path with leveraged BNB token losing value and may be selling customer bitcoin to keep it's value up. if things keep going sideways it's only a matter of time before they disable withdrawals and customer funds end up in court where people lose almost everything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry McCockinner Posted January 11 Author Share Posted January 11 11 spot ETFs approved by the SEC today. Trading to begin tomorrow. Next stop, the 4th halving in April. Onward. I'm interested in what the BTC price does tomorrow but what will also be interesting is if gold drops @TuscanyTile2.

Will people who have been parked in gold ETFs be moving to digital gold the first chance they get? 👀 could be an inflection point. Bitcoin has been on yet another amazing run. It's certainly possible it will continue, especially if it seems like the Fed is going to make it the new digital money. Possibly this news (the 11 spot ETFs) lends credence to this possibility? I could see people jumping on board (bumping up the price further) if they think there's a chance to make money. Heck, I wish I bought it when it was cheap, even though I don't think BTC is anything more than fiat in another form. The blockchain might have actual uses but I know that's a different thing from BTC (and it's not money either). If they ever were to back a crypto with physical gold/silver then it could be interesting. Of course, that's what the USD used to be until the government changed the rules (which is always a possibility in these types of things). Regardless, I hope you make a lot of money with your BTC (or whatever crypto). Ftr, I have a small amount of money in crypto (one of the small ones), which I bought as a gamble, hoping it would run up (but it has never taken off).

I don't think the fed would ever use bitcoin as anything other than possibly as reserves in the future because they can't control it. The ETFs were approved only because the SEC was sued for repeatedly rejecting and they lost for not having valid reasons and were forced to approve. I'm shocked that a gold bug decided to buy a sh*tcoin instead of bitcoin. shocked. you will capitulate one day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm shocked that a gold bug decided to buy a sh*tcoin instead of bitcoin. shocked. you will capitulate one day. I was only willing to lose a small amount of money and figured I'd gamble by buying something that was cheap (as opposed to a tiny fraction of a BTC). In retrospect, a tiny fraction of a BTC would've been a much better bet but it's too late now. Unless these cryptos are backed by something like gold/silver I kind of think they're all sh-tcoins. I guess if one of them ends up becoming recognized by the government then, while it'll still be fiat (like the USD), it'll at least have some value in that way (again like the USD). It's difficult to discuss this type of thing with most people because they can't perceive the USD losing a massive amount (or even all) of its purchasing power. But I'm sure plenty of people are seeing articles about billionaires building apocalypse bunkers and things along those lines. Maybe they're just not relating the 2 things.
