Bitcoin Thread 2 Satoshi

I see btc was up about 40k USD since my post. comment still stands...

Do central banks own Bitcoin?
If central banks don't own Bitcoin, then they who control finance such as them around the world have no reason to use it or see it used in any position of importance.

It would be very easy for governments just to ban Bitcoin.

What happens when the next Bitcoin comes around. Bitcoin is only doing so well because it was the first.

When CBDCs become the norm there's a good chance Bitcoin will start to lose some of it's lustre.

When BRICS+ get around to introducing their own digital currency backed by gold/or whatever assets they choose, people will flock to it.

This is my opinion, but Bitcoin is the beginning or introduction into digital money, not the end. It had it's use but will soon have served it's purpose and something more controllable by the powers that be will be introduced.

What, you thought that world governments would allow an "uncontrollable" source of wealth to run free and dominate digital forever, no, when the time comes it will be cut off.

There's not enough to go around and too much is in the hands of the 'ordinary people' to make it useful to governments and central banks.

And the dream of Hodlers that Bitcoin would ever become the world's reserve currency just shows a complete naivete on the part of the dreamers.

Max Keiser should know better, but he has buried his head deep deep in the sand because he is all in, even making fun of those who stick to the things that have survived thousands of years of trade like gold and silver.

Bitcoin has died 440 times.

If you invested $100 each time,
you'd have $119,101,151 today.
 

Hope is a great thing.

Because that is what your response is. Hope. That Bitcoin won't fail for any of the reasons I listed. But I don't think hope is sound financial advice.

I'm not saying don't use Bitcoin to make money. But know when to get out.

Lol it’s just a bunch of bollocks.
There's not enough to go around
Lol apart from an infinite number of decimals at 8 currently but they can just update the code.
 
Max Keiser himself couldn't answer the question of central banks not owning Bitcoin.

When asked, he just didn't have an answer.

What is your answer?

Because if they did they would admit their own failings and give crypto legitimacy basically starting their own demise in replacing the financial system they currently control.

So then you admit they see no reason to own Bitcoin.

So then if the controllers of the financial world have no use of Bitcoin, or see it as a threat, what will they do?

At some point they will try and destroy it.

que? living under a rock are we?

Bitcoin is only doing so well because it was the first.
you really think it just coincidentally held that lead for 16 years? Bitcoin remains the most decentralised, that is its reason to exist

I know all about El Salvador. Taking a huge gamble. Hope it pays off.

Has that bill passed?

Bitcoin isn't even private. Montero is at least private. Both backed by nothing.

Look I hope it works out. If we lived in a fair perfect world it could. But we don't and there are sharks that control the financial world and they love nothing more than control.
That which they can't control they will seek to undermine or destroy.

it's a design choice, Monero is essentially banned from most major exchanges because of its privacy ...

Both backed by nothing.
you could say the same for any currency in the world though, it's all backed by nothing, unless you count the threat of violence as something valuable

That which they can't control they will seek to undermine or destroy.
true enough, they tried destroying it for a very long time and gave up, undermining is more the focus these days
and with nonsense like perpetual futures, leverage etc the industry created the tools needed to undermine crypto

all's not lost, we'll have to see how it plays out over time
 
El Salvador owns $700m worth of Bitcoin...

so no, they are not taking some huge gamble.. that's not much in the grand scheme of anything :ROFL:
our ANC has lost 1000x more than that on Lambos and sushi
 
Anyway, I don't wish for Bitcoin to collapse, it's just the way I see things playing out.

Hope you guys continue to make good money off of Bitcoin.
