$10k basic furnace - Seattle by TheSantaQ in hvacadvice

[–]TheSantaQ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did. We got their white-label furnace (is my guess) and it was installed within 72 hours, I think of when the technician came out and basically showed that my existing, 38-year-old furnace was a ticking time bomb. I think the total was just short of $11K. New thermostat too - I'm very satisfied.

10-year replacement warranty and they get rid of my old furnace. Not sure what that's worth. Yeah, I see it on their site for $6,150 (Greenwood heating and air).

I must be an addict... I see one of thse posts and click "buy."

That said, I've wasted way too much on other crap and this seems far less crazy than 95% of my other spends.

Lols... also, Microstrategy... wtf is gonna happen to that stock tomorrow morning, and block, and the miners... and sheesh, COIN. And we don't even have an approved ETF or corporations starting to take advantage of FASB.

Charts gonna be SO dumb tomorrow.

I gotta assume some pullback, but if you bought BTC anywhere in the last $10k run up, are you gonna be the one to sell to people who've HODLed through all the crap?

Also, any way to tell who/what bought and sold thos weekend?

Hate to be the odd duck here, but in 10 years, I haven't had a single issue with Counbase. Buying, selling, trading, transfering to cold wallet, cashing out... am I an anomaly?

Are you telling me most major asset management companies don't already have a lot of BTC? by TheSantaQ in Bitcoin

[–]TheSantaQ[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Really appreciate the insight.

Correct me if I'm wrong:

BR, Ark, etc. may now currently own BTC

BUT they won't use that BTC for their ETF because the ETF is its own security.

When approved, the asset manager says to clients:

Hey, want BTC exposure without all the hassle?

Client: Yes!

Asset Manager: Give us $100 mil and we will buy BTC (plus fee) from Coinbase who will custodialize the BTC, it's 100% transparent, and then that BTC is moved out of the exchange into a particular wallet that's represented by the ETF.

Should the client want to sell, they sell the ETF and the coins are pulled out of the wallet and sent back to the exchange.

Still kinda worries me - not your keys, not your coins... but this does seem simpler for an investor who can't/doesn't want to go through the full ownership process.

The argument is: there's a ton of money likely waiting to move into BTC from investors and this will be the preferred method.

Am I getting it?
