The best medicine for lack of conviction is education.

Once you decide for yourself that Bitcoin is more than "number go up" technology, you can develop the diamond hands required for its volatilty.

The value and tenants of Bitcoin won't immediately be expressed in upward price movement. The reason to hold Bitcoin come from what it may become 10+ years from now.

Like Warren Buffet would say, the markets are the only place where when something you want goes on sell, you run out of the store.

I been read watching the evolutions of what defines the value of cryptos. It is a bridge between different demographics without the centralization of governments because the government cannot print more (hence safe from money printing). Great!

Now with the issuance of bitcoins being harder and harder, due to competition between differenting mining pools and (from literature) harder to solve to gain rewards. (Meh, great so its becoming less likely to have more in the open)

Some people have lost their cold storages ( so there probably a lot to circulate once all is mined soo.. less than 21M)

Now If federal reserves and companies buy or just mine and hold cryptos (wont that end up with these entities buying these all these up). If that is the case, wouldnt they have the power to revalue these assets any time they want, like if they were to QE some cryptos by releasing their holdings into the wild.

So what is the game here? is it to hold before it gets to the point where they wont buy anymore? Is the crypto regulation a tactic to lower the price to buy at a lower dip? Will these regulations restrict down what we can trade it for?

Anyone else tired of staring at their phone all day?

I keep checking numbers / prices again and again and it honestly started messing with my focus.

I tried building a small Android app for myself that just speaks updates out loud so I don’t have to look at the screen all the time.

Not signals. Not advice. Just audio updates.

Before I go further with it, I’m curious: – would audio-only updates be useful to anyone? – or is this just a weird niche thing?

Genuinely asking.

Hi everyone!

Back in like 2013 or something My husband bought us some bitcoin. I think around $1000 worth, I can’t recall. Unfortunately since then he’s passed away (2018), and while I recall logging in to his wallet and changing the info to include myself and my email address after he passed away, I can’t recall where on earth any of this transpired. I do have the old laptop I did this on, and I hope that can help illuminate things for me so I can find it, but honestly I’m not sure where to begin looking. Back around those days, where would one access to their bitcoin? This was his thing back then, not mine so I have no idea where to start. Any ideas would be helpful.
