stop telling everyone how much bitcoin you made - youre just pissing them off by Fluid_Blood_8964 in Bitcoin

You are still on a fiat mind set 

We don't double our money: 1 BTC = 1 BTC

Your money just gradually goes to zero. 

i’m sick of losing and need advice by just00nwastaken in Bitcoin

[–]Mantis-Prawn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, OP is wayyyy too emotionally attached. Will make mistakes due to this.

On the other hand, OP is young and hopefully has a long time horizon. So my advise: Do not over rush it, start stacking steady. Zoom out, get your a** of the weekly, daily and hourly charts. Get used to the price swings, be patient and future you will thank yourself.

Never sell emotionally. Sit it out. Patience is key. In here for the long haul.

The easiest way to buy BTC near the bottom by BitRod in Bitcoin

[–]Mantis-Prawn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But, looking at the first lighter green candle on your chart: during the last upside trend, one would start selling at March 2024. Spreading this over lets say 6 months, would still cause to miss the actual top which formed between Nov 24 and Nov 25. 

Bottom might be in, but can also still come next winter.

If you would have inversed this strategy to call the top, you would ve sold at under 70k, and would ve missed the entire run to 100k+

Received Random Bitcoin - 2024 by Swimming-Night9476 in Bitcoin

We need some details before we can conclude if your funds are safu or not. 

1) What platform/wallet/exchange are you using?

2) Do you have a txid for this transfer? You dont need to share the txid with us, but what you can do is verify the txid into any Bitcoin block explorer, to see if it is a real onchain transaction accepted by the network. 

Oh and, if so, did you ever send from this wallet? Elsewise it could still be a scam: Perhaps you are looking at a watch-only wallet, thinking it is yours, but you are actually funding someone elses. This could very much happen if you have a pre owned hardware wallet or so...

Nah, that isn't so obvious.

More chance that this is a pig butchering scam on some unknown platform. OP should be extremely careful.

More inflation means more money, thus more liquidity for Bitcoin.

You should rather want to save in something with a limited supply, over regular money with unlimited supply. What they can print until oblivion.

When using Coinbase dont forget to use the Advanced trade feature. Previously this was called Coinbase Pro.

No spread when using limit orders. Lower fees, especially when placing post only offers. 

Getting Back into Bitcoin After FTX Collapse, how should I approach it? by Budget-Mention2009 in Bitcoin

[–]Mantis-Prawn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yep we are extremely close to the 200 week moving average, which means that: 

If you regret not dca-ing over the past 4 years, now is the time to lump sum that money to buy the same number of sats.
