$62 billion dollars of commercial paper and IOUs, but nobody in the money markets has ever heard of them. Tether
It's almost like they can't use miners as "commercial paper" junk collateral to inflate the bubble anymore.
- Disaster just waiting to happen...neverscared
- I posted about Tether many times here...
It's not really commercial paper per se, but debt in exchanges that they artistically call "commercial paper" lolgrafician - schmammercial piper they call itneverscared

The seizure is the largest of its kind in the UK - beating the previous record set when the Met confiscated £114m of cryptocurrency on 24 June.
A 39-year-old woman, arrested on suspicion of money laundering on 24 June, has been interviewed over the new seizure.

Cryptocurrency trading volumes decreased significantly in June according to data from Cryptocompare, a price and volume tracking organization. Volumes traded diminished by at least 40% month-on-month, with spot and derivatives trading both suffering due to the mining and trading crackdown in China, amongst other factors. The resulting volatility seems to have made many traders lose interest.

^Yeah, try to use indicators on a chart that's 95% flat...and 5% head and shoulders
But sure, go ahead, use the best indicators the market can offer even when your entire strategy is "buy and hold"
- you should click on the button labeled Log. You need that when dealing with exponential growthESKEMA
- and indicators work just fine, they're not bound by your monitor resolutionESKEMA
- Why? Exponential growth might be relevant to a pandemic context, but why for bitcoin?grafician
- Also the point was bitcoin has no data. The chart is flat, says right there in the post, ESKEMAgrafician
- bitcoin growth is exponential because of network effects. I tought you'd know this, pretty basic stuff. The data is there, just wainting for you to press logESKEMA
- Again that is not relevant, this is just price data BTC to USD. So it had...2-3 moves in 12 years. The most boring asset in history.grafician
- On the other side, IF you'd consider Bitcoin exponential growth, it's the most dangerous and volatile asset in history.
The 2008 stock market crash was 20%grafician - So again, looking at this regular chart plot, it's still 95% flat and 5% an head & shoulders move in the last few months, in over 12 years.grafician
- You gotta bring everything down to the basics as you said, this is bitcoin simplified for you, at the end of the day.grafician
- So you don't need indicators, it only has about 2-3 S&D points, closest one is 30K, the next at about 19K, then into oblivion.grafician
- Tradingview is fucking littered with idiots trying to over analyse BTC daily on the charts. Useless shit.grafician
- I have absolutely no problems with bitcoin going down to 10k. I'll be buying regardless. When down more for me.ESKEMA
- we're not playing the same gameESKEMA
- only idiots gambling life savings loose. The others play, some win, other manage to keep playing.ESKEMA
- if you put in play money, You can't ever loose.ESKEMA
- You'll at least had an experience, an interaction with the markets. You put in what you can afford to loose.ESKEMA
- Your tiktok arguments make no sense in this forum. we're not your friendsESKEMA

After years of studying it, I believe that cryptocurrency is an inherently right-wing, hyper-capitalistic technology built primarily to amplify the wealth of its proponents through a combination of tax avoidance, diminished regulatory oversight and artificially enforced scarcity.
Despite claims of “decentralization”, the cryptocurrency industry is controlled by a powerful cartel of wealthy figures who, with time, have evolved to incorporate many of the same institutions tied to the existing centralized financial system they supposedly set out to replace.
and it goes on... good read.. makes sense watching the maller guy with his lousy maga hat

Dollars are like cups, water is value. Fill the cups up. A dollar = full cup of water (value).... now print a load more cups.... you'll have to pour out some value to the newly printed cups...
Eventually your cups (dollar) are holding less and less value...
There's an unlimited supply of cups being printed, but only a set amount of value.
Don't forget the only thing of value you have is your time.

*flexes muscles*
I got plenteee value.Nairn - 125 dollar per transaction in bitcoin.. when u get 10.mrd miners to 80 million transactions... this will crash so hard.neverscared
- This would make sense if their use was categorically exclusive. Bitcoins are just alternative containers, call them mugs, which are now used side by sidedrgs
- with dollar cups. So now even less water per cup/mug, luckily Bitcoins are just limited edition designer mugs.drgs
- Well who would want his cup to drop 40-50% value in a few months...oh boy, scary.grafician
- BTC is like some idiots developers discovered economics and redoing all the mistakes of the financial system since the '30s or whatever.grafician
- Ponzis, pumps and dumbs, lack of regulation, wild west exchanges, snake-oil sellers (like this idiot <<), fake coins, etc.
All checked on the list LOLgrafician - And normal idiots buy into this shit because they have zero financial knowledge, they're stupid with money and so on. Recipe for financial disaster.grafician
- Still amazed it got so big, for so long, a decade of pumping and dumping is a lot. But I guess Madoff's ponzi lasted for 14 years so you're very close moonboys!grafician

NEW RELEASE: “The true costs of digital currencies”, noting that “the total Bitcoin carbon footprint exceeds the total GHG emission reductions of electric vehicles (51.9 Mt CO2 in 2020)” and urging for a more comprehensive view in assessing the externalities of cryptocurrencies (June 2021).
- if it doesnt go up exponnential constant its fucked... the true essence of ponzineverscared
- i am not in to bitcoin and i think it's daft that we still cant prover carbon emissions but these estimates (hashrate*protocol*a... carbon per twh by country)kingsteven
- are probably massively off. assuming miners are idiots that run huge rigs and are not sourcing their energy from renewables even though it's cheaper? nokingsteven
- you could, with the same level of confidence conclude its driving demand for renewables and has potential to harness renewable energy in new locationskingsteven
- Renewables are already the cheapest! The thing is you can really run a power grid on renewables yet. Bitcoin has nothing to do with driving demand for renewablegrafician
- So please stop repeating nonsense like that!grafician
- The planet is beyond fucked...greed is goodutopian
- graf, read. i'm only saying that this is only as accurate as other estimates that paint btc in good light such as the 73% renewable claimkingsteven

- they are a worst case scenario based on assumptions due to the lack of data, to create public pressure make the industry prove its emissionskingsteven
- it's really an oversimplification of the problem - i find stories like the zombie natural gas farm far scarier... hopefully thats just US lunacykingsteven

In a change of heart, The Black Swan author Nassim Nicholas Taleb now sees no value in holding a bitcoin. The former options trader said the world's largest cryptocurrency by market cap is worth "exactly zero" and does not satisfy notions of it as a currency without government support, as a hedge against inflation and as a safe haven investment.
"Few assets in financial history have been more fragile than bitcoin," he said in his paper, 'Bitcoin, Currencies, and Fragility,' published in late June.
Another reason for his stance reversal is that bitcoin requires a sustained amount of interest to maintain it. In contrast, "gold and other precious metals are largely maintenance-free, do not degrade over a historical horizon, and do not require maintenance to refresh their physical properties over time," he said.
Making a case against its status of being a hedge, Taleb cited the flash crash of March 2020 where bitcoin dropped further than the stock market and recovered with it "upon the massive injection of liquidity." That’s "sufficient evidence that it cannot remotely be used as a tail hedge against systemic risk," he said.
- Taleb went 180 because of a twitter fight. He's doing it out of spite. Even went on to talk at a Bitcoin SV conference with Craig Wright. He's the fragile one.ESKEMA

Seems like we're approaching the edge. Will 30K hold for another rally? Or will we crash to 20k?

At some point isn't BTC going to reach saturation with the number of secondary and tertiary wealth people willing to gamble on it? At which they'l l have lost their cash and it'll be just the rich cunts who've been inflating it for small % gains holding their dicks.
- it'll all be over by 2030. until then put your chips on the table and enjoy.shapesalad
- It'll be over a lot sooner than that, imho. Once the Fed chooses a direction, everything else becomes worthless gambling. No more hype to support it, etc.formed
