Crypto's sole purpose of existence is to avoid capture. That is the primary directive and only source of value that it has. As far as I'm concerned CBDC is not even a talking point as it is inferior in

Yeah it's free money; no possible way it can backfire. 🤑

Considering XRP's major legal victories and settlement offers I can only assume there will be a massive pump at some point where it will reclaim a higher spot on the market cap. Unfortunately my politics

to the point where it's the most hated arm of the government. IRS says hold my beer.

Yes the sentiment is perfect for the bottom. But I will reserve that judgement until we get past September. Sell in May and go away, as they say. Another thing that I came to terms with is the fact that

Realize that folks like me come from poorer third world nations with no spare money to keep investing. We work here posting to earn money for food. So price means more to us than you will comprehend in

Seemingly permanent bleed on the price is highly demoralizing. We are all feeling it. It certainly is not fun, and materializes differently for everyone. I take it as a sign that we all need to rotate

A three year trendline is hopium? That's kind of wild statement to make. How are we defining hopium? Less than 10% chance? I'd give it at least a coinflip. When we consider where we are in the cycle (year

Fixed it for you kek

no 🤑

I don't like the idea of parting with my BTC though. This is my assessment as well. Which means we probably never accumulated enough BTC to begin with. I'm realizing this a systemic problem for Hive as
