But hold up, is that realistic? Since BTC fell from 126k to 60k, I hardly hear anyone mentioning strategic reserves now. Let's not get too ahead of ourselves; we could still be in bearish territory.

You guys need to consider the future. Michael Saylor accumulating a ton of Bitcoin could risk its decentralization.

You’ve missed Trump's comments about Venezuela after Maduro’s capture. He’s all in on using their oil and even hinted at deploying troops to secure it.

Yeah, totally agree. People's beliefs shape how they see his policies. If someone’s a Harris supporter, they'll spin it in a positive light regardless of reality.

You got it! Both can yield returns in their own time. Generally, gold does well in unstable times, while bitcoin shines when things are stable. So, investors should just play both sides instead of debating which is…

Bear market isn’t done yet. Price might dip below 70k or even hit 60k. Just look at the charts; we’re almost there. Time to consider buying in, maybe.

Saw a rumor about Venezuela holding 600k BTC as a reason for Trump’s actions. Sounds like conspiracy nonsense. That’s a drop in the bucket compared to their oil reserves. Plus, the market's up in general, not just…

The outflows from Iranian crypto exchanges show Bitcoin’s potential as a safe haven when banks restrict access. That’s powerful.

Can you back that up? Like, do you have stats showing Bitcoin slashed gold's popularity?

If we’re in a bear market, any price recovery will just be temporary. Better to accumulate Bitcoin now while it’s cheaper. Those who panic miss out.

If one of their ships goes down, things will get messy fast. America might retaliate, and we could see ground attacks. Trump just can’t handle this situation.

Like OP, your prediction could go either way. Just because BTC has sat around 80k-90k for a while doesn’t mean it can’t drop lower. Even if it reaches 100k again, doesn't mean it won't go back to the 80s.

The election result might shake the market a bit, but I don’t see it having as massive an impact as everyone thinks. Historically, no matter who wins, Bitcoin tends to push for ATHs eventually. Long-term, the economy's…

If I remember right, Bitcoin hit its ATH back in March 2024 when ETFs got approved. So, I’d say the bull run started then. This might be the longest one we’ve seen. But it's a Bitcoin rally, not for altcoins which have…

What’s different about the US empire? History shows it will fall too, just like all the others. China might step in as the next power, but I hope we don’t just switch from one superpower to another.

There’s no guarantee we’ve hit the bottom. The market feels unstable right now, and I doubt Bitcoin will recover to previous ATHs soon. Expecting a new ATH seems unrealistic in this current climate.

Right? Most folks focus on the short term. They stress over these outflows, but keep in mind the total assets in BTC ETFs are still over $102 billion. The outflows are just minor percentages, nothing to lose sleep over.

Guess what? I finally detected a chip on the board! FINALLY:-). Turns out the problem was a bad solder joint. I reballed the chip and then soldered it onto the PCB. Now there’s communication! But the current is still…

Thanks for checking my schematics. I made a few changes: 1. Supplied VDDIO_18 with 1.2V. 2. Checked that the oscillator works with 1.2V. 3. Generated 0.8V from the 1.2V. So when the power's off, VDDIO is off too. I…

Quick note: I got my BM1366AL chips from NBTC. Could that be an issue? I’ve seen others on Discord having detection problems with this AL version on Bitaxe Hex. Any official word on that?
