Yes I know, I know, nobody knows. And I know that. Nobody has a crystal ball. But In your opinion. A range. Where do you think it’ll be?

Please don’t kill me for the question, I know it’s been asked before, prob a million times, but sentiment changes. I’m just curious what the sentiment and what people’s thoughts / opinions currently are. From where we are now, to 2030 / 2032 and beyond.

Isn't it? I mean... come on.

Keep stacking i guess

Given several self custody issues recently and the fact that I have become too old for self custody, I have converted the last of my bitcoin into Bitcoin ETN in my pension account, even I can’t touch the fund for a long time.

Adios, it’s been cool when it lasted, all the best to the younger and smarter folks who can still safely self custody real bitcoin, I wish you all the best.

sit down, take a sip of coffee, and listen very closely:

rn, the U.S. gov and the big tech hyperscalers are in a battle for capital. someone has to foot the bill. financial repression is around the corner. debt to gdp ratio is nearing the same levels as they were in the 1930’s and 40’s at the height of WWII. interest rates are likely to be capped so the U.S. can print their way out of this incoming debt death spiral.

when a government caps rates by printing money, cash loses value and becomes a liability, leaving capital little choice but to flee into financial assets (like Bitcoin.) this is the why asset owners in the early 1940’s were able to see their wealth benefit massively, while the average person who had no exposure to financial markets, was the one who paid the real price. they are the ones who footed the bill, because they saw their savings and paychecks lose 50% of their value over this period without even realizing what was happening.

today the U.S. government is standing in a very similar position to the late 1930’s & early 1940’s. except that this time, the stakes might even be higher. because it’s not just the government’s survival on the line this time, it’s also America’s largest tech companies that make up a record share of the U.S. stock market.

so as rates keep on climbing from here, it will begin to cause some real damage to the economy.

the only question is how quickly the U.S. government responds to this damage by opting for currency debasement as the solution.

how quickly do they sacrifice the U.S. dollar in order to bail out both the U.S. treasury AND big tech that are both in dire need of cheap capital?

this is also the reason why the U.S. mid term elections are shaping up to be one of the biggest political events in decades. the fact that the U.S. treasury bond market is breaking heading into the elections, is not a coincidence. these two things happening at the same time is a clear sign that we are witnessing a radical transformation of the U.S. financial system.

position accordingly. own assets. Bitcoin is the superior money. nobody cares, nobody’s paying attention. this is precisely the time when you should start paying attention & owning.
the time is now. ₿

edit: a word

Money supply isn't dropping any time soon. The next run will be glorious.

Btc may be antithetical to its origin . Centralization has been achieved (hoarding done by institutional structures w/ more buying power). what’s the point of btc ( no middleman / p2p ) if concentrated w/ those who serve as middleman in every relevant context? (Blackrock etc)

I am using an old iPhone 8 with the Gordian seed tool, and I have been wondering what could possibly be some weaknesses in my setup?

I have deleted all the apps I won’t be using. There’s no phone app, no messaging app, no web browser, no iTunes logged in, no iMessage. All the settings like location sharing, app permissions, data tracking, analytics. Everything is turned off, no WiFi, no SIM card, in airplane mode.

I am currently using sparrow and electrum on my laptop, and blue wallet on my regular phone. Everything is done via airgapped with QR codes. I am ocd as to not allow any other cameras to see these codes.

I have considered having the wireless antenna disabled. If anyone could maybe think of some ways I could better secure this device, I would greatly appreciate the feedback.

How does bitcoin actually work?

Stick to bitcoin. The alignment with bitcoin changes you for the better.

I don't usually post stuff like this, but I've been a loyal Apple user since 2008 with over 7 devices on one Apple ID, plus the usual subscriptions (iCloud+, In App purchases, app subscriptions) so this one stung in a specific way.

In June I downloaded an app called "Wasabi Bitcoin & Crypto Wallet" from the official App Store. It looked completely legitimate, normal listing, developer name, screenshots, reviews. It turned out to be an impersonation of the real Wasabi Wallet. Wasabi Wallet is an open-source, desktop-only software that has never had a mobile app. In August, a wallet I'd created inside that fake app was drained in a single transaction; about 0.9 BTC, roughly $53k at the time.

The theft is bad enough. What's been almost as frustrating is that there's no way to actually talk to a person at Apple about it. No phone line, no support chat for this, just web forms (Apple's own "report a problem" page, and their EU "Digital Services Act" reporting portal). I filed a police report. I reported it through every official channel Apple offers. Apple's own review team closed my EU complaint with a one line reply: insufficient information, or no violation found. No further explanation.

One thing that's stuck with me: with the real, open-source Wasabi Wallet, anyone can verify a release is genuine by checking its cryptographic signature on GitHub. On the App Store, there's no equivalent. As a user, you have no way to check that an app is actually from the developer it claims to be. You're just trusting Apple's review process, full stop. That trust is what got me here.

What makes it sting more: Apple's own App Store Review Guidelines, not marketing copy, their actual rulebook for developers say: "These efforts have made Apple's platforms the safest for consumers around the world." That's the exact trust I was operating on.

This isn't a one-off either. Security researchers found dozens of similar fake wallet apps on the App Store this year alone (Kaspersky, April 2026). There's also an ongoing US lawsuit over a nearly identical fake Sparrow Wallet app. I'm not trying to start a pile-on, I still like my Apple devices. I just wish there were an actual way to be heard, and wanted other people to be a bit more careful with anything wallet-related in the App Store, "official" or not.

Happy to answer questions if anyone's curious or has been through something similar.

On my podcast ‘Bitcoin for Millennials’ I talked with former hedge fund manager James Lavish, who now writes a top finance newsletter called The Informationist newsletter. We discuss $40 trillion debt and inflation as policy, rising bond yields and bond market plumbing, nominal vs real growth and fiat obfuscation, contagion risk from repo to a failed Treasury auction, and Bitcoin as a sovereignty hedge in a financialized world.

I type d that tyitle twice because I knew it was wrong the first time. Still wrong. w/e. GF's out at a lesbian bar, BTC crashing WHY AM I HOLDING? I'LL TELL YOU WHY. It's because I'm a bad trader and I KNOW I'M A BAD TRADER. Yeah you good traders can spot the highs and the lows pit pat piffy wing wong wang just like that and make a millino bucks sure no problem bro. Likewise the weak hands are like OH NO IT'S GOING DOWN I'M GONNA SELL he he he and then they're like OH GOD MY ASSHOLE when the SMART traders who KNOW WHAT THE FUCK THEY'RE DOING buy back in but you know what? I'm not part of that group. When the traders buy back in I'm already part of the market capital so GUESS WHO YOU'RE CHEATING day traders NOT ME~! Those taunt threads saying "OHH YOU SHOULD HAVE SOLD" YEAH NO SHIT. NO SHIT I SHOULD HAVE SOLD. I SHOULD HAVE SOLD MOMENTS BEFORE EVERY SELL AND BOUGHT MOMENTS BEFORE EVERY BUY BUT YOU KNOW WHAT NOT EVERYBODY IS AS COOL AS YOU. You only sell in a bear market if you are a good day trader or an illusioned noob. The people inbetween hold. In a zero-sum game such as this, traders can only take your money if you sell.

so i've had some whiskey

actually on the bottle it's spelled whisky

w/e

sue me

(but only if it's payable in BTC)

Cold Storage Self Custody seems the most obvious thing to do but without a third party to assist you with your security - seed phrase management - it seems like one of the biggest challenges - for myself -and - for mass adoption.

Im afraid that a lot more BTC is going to go to the grave with people like me.

The recent technical challenges with wallets are only a sidebar to this - but also relevant.

I am aging (64M) and cannot rely on my memory and health like I once did.

I think thes challenges are going to stall the anticipated growth and potential we have all believed is possible.

Hi Bitcoin community!

I've been building Satoshi Shelf, a small independent digital marketplace that accepts Bitcoin for digital products.

🔗 https://xghabra.github.io/satoshi-shelf/index.html

This is my first announcement of the project here. I'm sharing it with the community because I want to make digital products available to people who prefer using Bitcoin for online payments.

I'm an independent developer, and I'm continuing to improve the store. Feedback about the purchasing experience, trust, and useful features would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for checking it out!

Can anyone tell me how to spend this money?

Sometimes, they just have to learn Bitcoin on their own. Even if it means another 10 years wasted.

No mining, no Bitcoin.

Simple as that.

I know everyone is tired from DCA questions just need a bit more insight please

Weekly gives more entry points so you might not miss a red week when it happens, i just feel like price evens out more when its monthly and you dont get fhe weekly opportunities of buying corrections or am i missing something?

But i dont like weekly for one reason, it makes me continue to monitor the market more than i want to which is a problem i have
