That's because BTC relevance is waning. You can really start to see it these days.


Really? How so?
Far less engagement. New entrants, flat not interested in BTC.

Big money much more interested in ETH.




Lol, this is a crypto thread. Not just a btc thread. Also you have no clue what you are talking about.
This is the same kind of stupid dismissive **** I've seen from BTC maxis for years now. I don't "like" Bitcoin (even though I own >1) so therefore, I have no clue what I'm talking about.

It's been noticeably cringy for years.




What are you talking about!?? Go back and read my post.

I own much more than just BTC, that was my point this isn't just a btc thread.

Isn't this true though? I know I haven't been interested in buying BTC in a long time. I only buy ETH.

this is a direct quote from you:
Quote:

People cant even self custody their car keys. Thats why Tile and AirTags exist. I'm not yet sure thats a long term solution for the sub-100 IQ public. At least not yet
you mentioned car keys, and in reality self custody of bitcoin right now is far less complicated than actually driving a car and i know numerous folks who are absolute muppets that manage to safely drive a car every day.

i understand that GBTC is a trust. that is the plan for the blackrock offering as well. you could have figured that out by reading the article. so again, if you are curious about the custody solution blackrock is likely to utilize, there is an example out there that could probably answer your questions.
Nowhere did I suggest they are stupid, just below average. Heck even smart and rich people are forgetful and lazy at the wrong times. If you think my concern about customer and asset protection assumes people are stupid then you're mistaken.

I'm going through the GBTC's S-1 right now and I'm still right. The BTC are owned by the Trust, not the investors, and are securitized in an effort to broadly reflect BTC's underlying price. Just because you own a REIT ETF doesn't mean you own the underlying apartment complex. I'm not saying its a not good investment vehicle - easy access through many account types, exposure with low costs and little to no cold wallet risk. Plus, there are no derivatives, swaps, in the portfolio which makes sense because those would likely fall under SEC/CFTCs jurisdiction and they dont want that regulatory burden. That being said I'm not sure how well these vehicles perform against the underlying after fees. But you don't own the BTC and it cant used for its specific purpose of frictionless payments.

from the S-1
Quote:

The investment objective of the Trust is for the Shares to reflect the performance of the value of a bitcoin as represented by the Index, less the Trust's liabilities and expenses. The Shares are designed to provide investors with a cost-effective and convenient way to invest in bitcoin.
If cold wallet storage is easy and you want BTC exposure because you see it as a store of value, wouldn't buying it and holding it directly be a better strategy than paying Grayscale or BLK to take 2% off the top annually? That's like letting the bank charge you to hold you cash in a savings account.

Do you want self-agency/responsibility or do you want someone elses' computer and an IOU?

I think the trend is slowly but surely trending towards recognition of the realistic disasters associated with 3rd party trust.

He's just trying to crawfish out of his own beliefs that simultaneously nobody and everybody is able to enjoy some form of access to bitcoin to their own benefits and detriments.

I can only imagine the difficulty of wrapping your head around this is painful when so much of your life has been dedicated to institutions you thought would last through the end of time, only to potentially see their demise within the next decade. I feel your pain brother. I respect it.

And as much as I give you grief it is truly in the brotherly sense, ag to ag. But peel off the fuggin bandaid man. Download muunwallet and post a gawddamn lightning address so I can send you some sats for the abuse I've levied you (appropriately).

yes of course. but some people want exposure to bitcoin and don't want to self custody. others may want bitcoin exposure in an account where buying actual bitcoin is not possible, but GBTC or shares of blackrock's trust is. the world's biggest asset management company is providing another avenue for more people to get skin in the game. its not really all that complicated.
And take a 2% annual cut from your holdings. Seems like a good deal for the world biggest asset management company. I hope it works out for the investors as well.

We can use the lighting network now to transact. You want to send me some of your >1 BTC for little to no fees, I'll walk you through getting a lightning wallet and glad accept your BTC.

every day I hear about more and more lightning development. Seriously, where are you getting your news? I'm not trying to be an ass here, I'm curious.



Why on earth would I want to be "walked through" how to use the lightning network.

If I want to send money, I just pull up venmo.

If I want to buy something, I pull out a credit card. Which also has significantly higher consumer protection and also reward incentives.

There's no reason for me to ever use it.


Well you've proved you're not very smart so I was trying to be nice and help you out.
It's nice of you, yes. But this is how the mainstream views it.

Hey, the important thing to remember is that I and a select few predicted this a while back...big money and institutions getting into crypto...more of what I predicted to follow over the next 6 months....and again in 4 years.

Hard to say, a couple news publications would corroborate as the revenue for them is enticing.

Definitely sensed a shift in the perception within the last year, mainly from the big CT traders.
