I tried VirtualBox before; it was cool but too heavy on RAM for my liking. I mean, we’re talking about a simple script here. People shouldn’t need to reserve so much memory just to run it.

Exactly! Bitcoin is where the profits are.

True! It’s often used by people who don’t get the asset to say others have made no money. They just don’t want to accept that some are making a killing.

Haha exactly! People think unrealized gains are fake until you cash out. If that were true, billionaires wouldn’t be billionaires.

Nah, they’ve made it clear retail can’t participate. Maybe they’ll change it later, but for now, it’s all about the rich getting richer.

Crazy news today! Microstrategy just bought another 12,000 BTC, and the UK is rolling out BTC ETFs, but only for professional investors. Seems like the average Joe is getting left behind again.

Yeah, Bitcoin could hit $250k if speculators jump back in. But why would they? Tech stocks have been on fire while BTC dipped last year.

Honestly, the blockchain is doing fine. It’s just that one block took longer to mine than usual. It’s rare but nothing's broken. It’s all part of how decentralization works. No panic necessary.

Exactly, there were moments with no transactions at all. Miners had no choice but to mine empty blocks back then.

Sure, AI’s grabbing attention, but Bitcoin’s a self-correcting market. Loss of hash power can lead to more profit for the remaining miners.

OP, the 4-year cycle is definitely fading. Retail booms don’t happen like they used to. The last bear only dropped 52% not like before. It feels like traders are keeping the cycle alive by reacting to it.

For this cycle, I think 7 BTC can definitely hit a million. 7 BTC + 70 ETH might even be worth over $1.7 million at its peak.

I just read up on this, and it feels like we’re finally recognizing the quantum threat. I suggested something like this before, but I know it goes against Bitcoin’s core principles.

They have a lot of BTC already, but selling for dividends might reduce their overall holdings, which some investors won’t like.

But why not just sell less and keep accumulating? Selling Bitcoin goes against everything they’ve stood for.

Investors expect their dividends, so selling is inevitable. Anyone thinking Saylor won't sell might need a wake-up call. Companies do what they gotta do.

Long read but packed with good info. Just a tip, maybe resize your images to around 700 width or smaller, it’s a bit too large for me.

Fees have been crazy lately, like 6-7 sat/vb, which is way above the expected 1 sat/vb. And let’s not ignore the spam from ordinals boosting those fees.

We’ll see what happens after the elections. If Trump wins, could be interesting times for Bitcoin. But what will voters care about most?
