Saw that. Laughed. That 23 yr old must have elite charisma. Or ppl are mouth breathing dingbats. Or both.
Algo. Buy it. Hold. Could be a nice present for your kids to waste at target 20 yrs from now.

So who wants to take a bet that BTC outlives the GBP?
I'm just going to leave these here:

Haters will say it's photoshopped.

In all seriousness…
BTC will outlive GBP.
Post WWIII nuclear fall out, the British Isles will be 30’ under sea level and someone in Peru will be running a BTC mining rig off a windmill.
But they still won’t be able to use it to buy a snickers bar at the bodega…

I could switch my Coinbase debit card to any digital asset I own and use it every time.
I use usdc on the daily earning 1.5-2% BTC on every transaction.
After ww3 nuclear fallout though it's unclear how many bodega's will be available.

Flexing when BTC is in the teens? That's funny.
This thread kinda sucks now. We need some big news. Can the SEC call 'em securities? Can we get a Tether audit?
Ben McKenzie was on the Intercept podcast the other day. No surprise on his position, but his CBDC comments were interesting
There are, however, some potential gains to be had, arguably, by cutting out the middleman in terms of the banking system and allowing each of us to have our own account at the Fed that, for example, imagine there’s another pandemic and the Fed needs to issue stimulus checks. Well, if everybody has their own account, they can do that immediately, right, with a click of a button. And you save all this time, this effort, and you have an immediate economic impact. And I think economists and central bank people get all excited about the potential advantages there. Because we do have a problem with banking the unbanked in this country. A lot of people who don’t have access to bank accounts are getting screwed over by payday lenders and things like that. So there’s potential savings there.
...What’s fascinating about the central bank, digital currency proposals — which are still, I would argue, in their nascent stages in America, I don’t think it’s really gotten that advanced that I’m aware of — is that they’re not based on blockchain...
...the Fed would also then have a lot more control over money supply, because they could monkey around a little bit with individual rates that they either charged on credit or, or gave to savings accounts, Instead of having to take a gigantic hammer, like they keep doing, this week with another 75 basis point interest rate hike that’s such a blunt weapon.

“Technology: University of New Mexico researchers find Bitcoin mining is environmentally unsustainable”
”Bitcoin mining is just as bad for the environment as drilling for oil. Each coin mined in 2021 caused $11,314 of climate damage, adding to the total global damages that exceeded $12 billion between 2016 and 2021.”

So drilling for oil is bad?
Oil is responsible for the entirety of civilization.
Save the environment, kill yourself.
