    Great. You're right, and super aware of current market conditions. All the millennials need to do is give up avocado toast and pull themselves up by their bootstraps.

    I'm not speaking for me btw...I'm fortunate enough to have a relatively high paying tech job. However, I've seen a lot of my peers and younger people struggle as shit keeps getting more expensive, while full-time jobs with benefits got turned into shitty gig contracts with no predictably. The path were on is not sustainable. BTC is one of the greatest asymmetric bets of their lives and a life boat to keep from drowning.

    jk, I really don't like that stuff at all. But I REALLY like the project.

    I was super disappointed that I haven't caught a bitcoin buy order in 3 months. Maybe today is the day. I have orders laddered down from 42.3.

    I have lately started to embrace Bitcoin, as it is such a feel-good-trip!

    BTC goes down: WINNING!!!!
    BTC goes up : WINNING!!!!

    Literally, the epitome of the Win/Win proposition.

    The floggings will continue until morale improves.

    BTC goes up: See! I told you FUDsters!
    BTC goes down: buying opportunity! Let’s celebrate!

    There will be no bad news allowed in the Bitcoin universe. Praise be.

    Why don't you scroll back to Q1 and read where I answered some of your questions about what I perceive as BTC's weaknesses instead of acting like a drama queen all the time?

    Sure thing. Just don’t criticize the bears for going quiet when you did the same when the price dropped early summer. I have an allergy to bullshit behavior.

    The boogeyman (puregravity) is gone.

    Just don't (repeatedly) say that I can't acknowledge BTC's weaknesses when I wrote you a sincere response to your question. You give respect and you'll get it in return. Call me a ponzi participant and/or a scammer and I will react accordingly. I have an allergy to bullshit behavior.

    How far back did you have to search? You did indeed answer that question when directed at you and I gave you props for that. Unclear how that gets you a pass on cult like behavior for eternity.

    Bitcoin isn’t a cult.
    But there are undeniably people behaving in a cult like manner with regards to it. If you don’t think so that is suspicious.

    This isn’t a circle jerk BTC thread - plenty of those on Reddit and Telegram if you just want steady doses of optimism and hopium.

    I just hope US legislators understand that crypto is like whack a mole. If they suppress it here it will just come up in other countries. It can't be stopped. But we can lose our advantages in the space and our ability to compete internationally. We've already been fighting with one hand tied behind our back.

    Crypto in the USA kinda feels like what the Chinese did with internet access.

    Anyone read the crypto / DeFi article in the Economist? Pretty balanced I thought. They definitely feel that it’s the future. They do view BTC as akin to pets.com….irrelevant longterm…but are pro ETH and Dai. The article focused more on the infrastructure transformation.

    yeah I think we could be heading in the direction of a stranglehold and pushing out retail (ie only accredited investors)

    Why on earth would institutions (or "accredited investors") be interested in an environment where they wouldn't have plebs to rip off?

    Interesting to see if BTC goes under 40k today, almost dipped the line earlier.
