Taking profits is the whole point of investing. For some reason people have the mentality of diamond hands and feel like they should hold no matter what. A beautiful thing about BTC is that it pumps then declines and holds while it’s accumulated so you can sell at a high and just wait for the accumulation phase to just get your position back at a lower price than you sold for.
@CryptoTice_ $BTC dipped 50% and held constant around $60k. It consistently pumps and then drops where it consolidates. Clearly a consolidation period rn, meaning you should be buying right now for the next pump
@BillWiIdin Well there’s a certain mentality needed to buy those trucks and not actually use them for purposes that require those trucks. Typically ego
🚨#BREAKING: Firefighters in Wisconsin are hailing 5 teenage boys as HEROES after they BUSTED DOWN A DOOR TO A BURNING HOME to save a 91-year-old elderly couple and their family on July 4th.
When firefighters arrived, they discovered the boys had already rescued ALL SIX PEOPLE inside the home.
According to investigators, the boys noticed what they thought was a bonfire from their home.
As they walked closer, they saw a home was on fire and started banging on the doors and windows and heard people yelling.
The group of boys BROKE DOWN THE DOOR, ran into the home, called out for the victims and rescued all them.
“We started calling out for people and asking if anybody was in there. And then we ended up getting quite a bit of responses. There ended up being five or six people in the house..."
"...you are kind of just feeling around, yelling, and then I heard a couple in the room on the left. So I went in there and got them out."
As the last person stepped out of the home, the flames intensified.
INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!
$MSTR (Strategy) may be the highest-conviction equity bet on Bitcoin—but it’s not just “Bitcoin with leverage” anymore.
Strategy has transformed itself into a Bitcoin treasury company, holding over 840,000 BTC, making it by far the largest corporate Bitcoin holder in the world. Rather than simply buying Bitcoin, the company has built a capital-raising machine—issuing equity, convertible debt, and preferred securities to accumulate more BTC over time. (CoinDesk)
The bull case is straightforward: if Bitcoin becomes a global reserve asset and appreciates into the hundreds of thousands of dollars, MSTR’s net asset value compounds while its ability to raise capital and acquire even more Bitcoin creates a powerful flywheel. This has led many investors to view MSTR as a leveraged Bitcoin ETF with an active treasury strategy. The bear case is equally clear: the company carries meaningful leverage, shareholder dilution remains a risk, and recent shifts toward selectively monetizing Bitcoin to support dividends and strengthen liquidity show management is becoming more flexible than its historical “never sell” stance. (Barron’s)
My base case assumes Bitcoin reaches $170k–220k by the end of 2026, implying MSTR around $250–400, depending on the premium investors assign to its Bitcoin holdings. Looking further out, if Bitcoin reaches $450k–700k by 2030, I believe MSTR has a credible path to $700–1,200+. MSTR remains one of the highest-beta ways to express a long-term Bitcoin thesis—but investors should expect substantially more volatility than owning BTC directly.
$BTC has seen recent changes from being viewed as a speculative asset into a strategic reserve by many governments and firms globally. The US has been building a reserve for Bitcoin, states have been adopting the legislation, firms are adding it to their balance sheets - having it be seen as “digital gold”. My base case for end of 2026 is $100k with possibilities of $150k. By 2030, assuming continued adoption and accumulating by governments and institutions around the world, $BTC could EASILY be worth $500k per coin. The biggest risk is no longer technology or short term volatility, but the continued acceptance by big players. In my opinion, Bitcoin is at a massive discount and when it rises, it’ll bring up other established coins with it.
This country needs better financial literacy - teaching kids how to manage finances should be a school requirement, same or lower taxes but more transparency on how those taxes are spent rather than being given away to fraudulent organizations and into politician pockets, and if the government goes over spending in their budget, they’re not eligible for reelection - so they face repercussions for being fiscally irresponsible
@BladeoftheS Capitalism once adopted greatly improves quality of life, decreases mortality, and brings people out of poverty. To be in the top 1% globally you need about $32-34k annually. 66% of individual worked (not household, and including part time individuals) make at least $34k a year.
