Now the story is hold it for 10 years and survive in the meantime. SURVIVE!

And trending down

Short but there is a lot packed in here.

And meanwhile all other assets have ripped. Tradfi is laughing at us 🤷🏻‍♂️

Lol yeah the move is to just keep up the cope and be like "All you have to do is hold it for 5.......6........7.........jUsT lOwEr yOur TiMe pReFeRenCe!!)

Bitcoin certainly has performed like Gold 2.0

DCA all the way

actual circular Bitcoin economy > "sentiment" of opportunistic traders :pepestare:

My price prediction is “grumpiness”. Kinda wild how we dumped in May/June 22 and it’s following the same pattern. Still it’s the 4 year shakeout cycle so I don’t fret.

also even if half of the buy-in from states and companies that Luke Mikic is reporting on is true the exchange price of Bitcoin is representative of basically nothing at all

lol... yep, bitcoin is dead again... that's why Iran is selling oil for it.

You mean 400 years

Ive always said a ten year hodl is the minimum…

June 4th 2022 Bitcoin price was around $29,000

You’ve been right.

All while the S&P makes new highs every day with near zero price volatility and AI themed stocks are minting millionaires in a few months. The class of 2021 unfortunately wasted valuable compounding years because they chose the wrong horse to bet on (at that time). I hope they catch up in the next bull market but diminishing returns is a cruel bitch

First said it back in 2013… Everyone I knew thought I was a retarded idiot… they still do…

The weak bull market was the killer. Had it gone to $200k-$400k and then had a 75% correction we’d all be laughing. But it less than doubling the previous cycle high caught everyone by surprise

Thankful for the dip. Almost at my chief aim

I own my money. I don’t have to ask for permission. It is the best money ever invented. It is down a bit but not an amount where it has effected my life negatively. Be profitable, head down and stack sats.

I am from class of 2021 but no pain

Fuck this hits home so hard 😆 🤣

17 to 22 is basically identical to 21 to 26. People have short memories, and give terrible advice. This is a long game.

This was how I saw the SupErcYcLe playing out. I cycle with no real bull & no real bear then a steady grind up & to the right. Right now we're on the precipice of the bear playing out as usual. Not a great time to be believing in the SupErcYcLe.

I went all in at 109k. Didn’t sell at the all time high. Loving that I get cheaper sats. I’m like actually stoked right now 🤣

This is me. NGL it sucks. Especially because I haven’t had a job in a year. Got laid off when it was $120k and I’d be much better off if I’d just sold it then instead of trying to HODL. Have had to sell multiple bottoms just to pay rent. Which means I held for nothing. Didn’t even beat inflation.

It’ll slow bleed all summer with war and liquidity issues through September and rip eventually. Dips = discounts ATHs = rewarding one’s self for enduring the long road to Mordor. I watched LOTR recently. Deal with it.

Price is one side of the coin. The other is life. Bitcoin changed me to the point I decided to have a 3rd child 10 years after I had the last one. That decision was 3 years ago. In the meantime we had a miscarriage, fear and doubt and yet tried again and now have a beautiful baby. All thanks to the orange philosophy and irrespective of price.

Thank you for your consideration. Hard times make strong hands 😅

Btc performance has been rough the last couple years 🙈😭

Well done sir. The area of my life that Bitcoin has had the least effect on me is the amount of money I have

1 BTC = 1 BTC 🤙

Yeah but sometimes 1btc = a car and sometimes a house

You're right about the distinction. When goods are priced in fiat, 1 BTC's purchasing power fluctuates (sometimes buying a car, sometimes a house). But priced in sats, 1 BTC always equals exactly 100,000,000 sats. That's Bitcoin's true constant. The challenge is that most of the economy still operates on fiat pricing, creating a practical dilemma: pricing purely in sats means missing most potential sales. So we default to fiat pricing with floating BTC conversion. We're seeing this evolve in stages: from early BTC pricing to today's hybrid model where merchants display fiat prices but accept BTC, to emerging Bitcoin-native communities that think only in sats. The psychological barrier is real. Humans have always been struggling with rapidly changing price references. Nostr and Lightning Network are helping by making sats practical for microtransactions. When you can buy a coffee for 10,000 sats without mentally converting to fiat, that's when the real paradigm shift begins. Unfortunately merchants don't arbitrarily price in sats as they tend to respond to customer demand. The design challenge here is to create a user experience so seamless that it naturally builds this demand: - reducing friction with instant LN payments - using psychological incentives like satoshi discounts - creating exclusive sats-only products or services - making the tech invisible to empower users (they are not early adopters) - (add your idea here) The pricetag strategy succeeds when the user experience makes paying in sats feel more natural and beneficial than fiat alternatives, thereby creating the very demand that makes satoshi pricing viable.
