"The Bollinger Bands Width indicator for #Bitcoin has reached its lowest level ever recorded. This means that the bands have tightened to the point where they are almost touching, which is a sign of low volatility. There are a few possible interpretations of this. One possibility is that the market is simply consolidating after a period of volatility. Another possibility is that the market is about to break out in either direction. Historically, when the Bollinger Bands Width has reached this level, Bitcoin has gone on to make a large move in either direction. However, it is important to remember that past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. Only time will tell what will happen next for Bitcoin. However, the tightening of the Bollinger Bands Width is a sign that something big is brewing." Google AI

"Yes, it is true that BlackRock owns 8% of MicroStrategy, and that MicroStrategy currently owns 152,800 BTC. This means that BlackRock indirectly owns a portion of MicroStrategy's BTC holdings. BlackRock's investment in MicroStrategy was made in February 2022, and it is possible that they are indirectly buying BTC through this investment. However, it is also possible that they are simply investing in MicroStrategy for other reasons, such as its growth potential or its leadership in the enterprise Bitcoin space. Only BlackRock knows for sure what their intentions are, but the fact that they own a significant stake in MicroStrategy means that they are likely to be closely watching the company's BTC holdings. If MicroStrategy continues to buy BTC, it is possible that BlackRock will also increase their investment in the company. It is also worth noting that BlackRock is not the only major institution that is investing in MicroStrategy. In recent months, other large investors, such as Capital International Investors and Fidelity Investments, have also increased their stakes in the company. This suggests that there is a growing interest in Bitcoin among institutional investors, and that BlackRock is not alone in its belief that BTC has the potential to be a valuable asset." AI Bart

Laivo dugno dažymas ir pirmos klaidos. Neišmaišėm pakankamai gerai dažų, todėl teko pirkti naujus dažus ir vėl viską perdažyti. Čia yra dažai kurie sukrenta į gumulą per tam tikrą laiką ir prieš dažant reikia labai, labai gerai išmaišyti. #Jotun

It's good that we have #nostr. No need to try again later.
