He had a lot of cash but kept pushing it. At some point, you gotta know when to stop.

Nice insights, but the readability of this thread could be better. I've been through this in my early trading days. Before risking real cash, education and practice are essential. Greed makes many skip that.

I think you’re missing the point. Working for yourself doesn’t mean you’re not serving customers. Yeah, you’re your own manager, but you still produce for the market.

For sure, knowing how retail investors act is key. We could maybe look at transfer sizes in exchange wallets, but that could still mess with whale activity.

You need strong allies in this space. BlackRock backing Coinbase is huge. They’ve got clout and stability. Binance isn’t needed by the big players in the US. But arrogance can only take you so far.

I agree. If you trained 50 men and 50 women with the same skills, I think women could come out on top. They’re generally more conservative with money, which can help in trading.

Actually, there are some prop firms that allow crypto trading. I made a list of reliable ones you can check out.

You can’t just erase the anonymity that Bitcoin offers. That's what makes it attractive, but it also makes holders targets. Even small players can get caught up in this mess.

Honestly, gotta take the volume numbers with a grain of salt. With all the centralized exchanges in control, it’s not the best metric. If we relied on decentralized exchanges, then maybe we’d have more reliable data.

I think you're mixing things up. The currency devaluation is the real issue here, with or without Obama. Every president faces that. Who's gonna solve it? Even Trump, as much as I can't stand him, at least gets Bitcoin.…

stack those Sats, man. BTC is either gonna skyrocket past a million or crash below 10k. 21 million coins, that’s it. It’s gotta go up, right?

He must’ve been high on something. Who spends that kind of money on cars and expects not to get caught?!

Looks like liquidity got a boost lately, and that might be why we’re seeing this bounce back. I think breaking the $100k mark is definitely on the cards this month, but we gotta stay cautious with all the macro…

seriously though, just go with the pro help. messing around with recovery software might have overwriting issues. like, if you put a new OS, it can overwrite old data. what about your data directory? was it on C too?

Right? CEXs make things easier. With Bisq, it can be a hassle finding a trustworthy peer. Definitely a more complex and slower way to handle trades.

Ever heard of Bisq? It’s a P2P DEX. Out of curiosity, why go for centralized options when you have choices like that?

I agree, it might take some rough patches before people start looking at DEXs more seriously. But DEXs are gonna keep innovating and eventually take market share.

CEXs won’t hold their throne forever though. DEXs are getting better at allowing users to bypass all that centralization. I can't wait to see centralized exchanges lose some of their power. They've caused a lot of…

Most major centralized exchanges like Coinbase Pro, Bybit, and Binance provide use options. There's also the decentralized route with platforms like Demex and Hyperliquid. Just be mindful of KYC on centralized exchanges…

Shhh, don’t give away the current window calculations. I’m staying safe with my estimates.
