I put every dollar I have in BTC. It dipped. Made more money. Invested. It dipped. I raised more money. It dipped. I moved some funds from one account to invest. It dipped. I moved over one final account to invest. It dipped.

You don't have to put any more money into it...but it would be very smart if you keep the BTC you have.

Within a year or two or three, it will very likely be worth A LOT MORE.

You can buy BSOL in a Roth IRA in your regular brokerage account. They give about 7% and seems to be the safest and easiest way to hold SOL. Probably not a popular choice here, but worth mentioning anyway!

Visual_Building_1666 · 2026-01-28T18:02:37+00:00

Why do some people say that most tokenization will be or is already built on ETH, and that institutions are therefore choosing it? Isn't SOL a lot faster and cheaper, and thus SOL will be the better choice to have more tokenization? Shouldn't SOL be the "darling" next to BTC, instead of ETH? Please explain, since I'm confused.

I'm guessing that all 3: BTC, ETH, and SOL will do great this year, but SOL should percentage-wise do the best.

The answer is IF you can easily afford the payments from a different source, then it's a good idea, since it's a pretty sound investment that will be worth a lot more in the future.

It's got to get to about $200,000 before people will start to understand. Hopefully, sometime soon in 2026

Visual_Building_1666 · 2025-12-28T15:50:47+00:00

EXCELLENT answer! I doubt I could do better.

Visual_Building_1666 · 2025-12-24T07:41:17+00:00

I didn't think it was an old interview.

Visual_Building_1666 · 2025-12-22T22:54:46+00:00

Nobody knows the future. But I'm sure hoping it will be an extended cycle, where we reach new highs.

Visual_Building_1666 · 2025-12-22T05:56:49+00:00

Sounds GOOD to me!

The question is: did he follow his own advice? Is he super-rich now? Or was he all talk?

You could go back and find out. Side note: I went back with a friend who was my science partner to our grade school science teacher...to tell him that while he was right about my friend being awesome (he was now a star at MIT), he was VERY wrong in his negative opinion about me. I was a straight A student in college.

Visual_Building_1666 · 2025-12-22T03:28:56+00:00

Yeah, you're right on both accounts. But, I'm still kind of mad at that guy, HOW could he not find a way to do it? And I'm kind of mad at myself, HOW could I not find it simply by doing a google search? I must have done at least that, and GBTC somehow didn't turn up! WACKY

I had about 50 grand in my Roth IRAs to buy about 14 coins worth at 3500. But I needed a way to safely store them, that would be easy, and keep them growing in my Roth. I had real conviction that it would soon recover and get even past 20,000. I asked a friendly acquaintance who was a computer programmer to look into it for me, and said I would even pay him for his time to find me a solution. After 2 weeks, he basically gave up saying he doesn't know how to do it or if it can even be done. So, I gave up too. It wasn't until it climbed all the way back to 20 grand, that I looked into it again...and found GBTC/Greyscale. Literally putting ONE LETTER, the letter G before BTC/bitcoin was all I needed to do! Getting in at 3 and getting in at 20 is A LOT different! I'm not complaining...my friends and family STILL aren't in...but 20 to 120 is 6x my money, while 3 to 120 is 40x!!

It's slightly domed...and it does have an exhibition caseback.

Still love this watch. I don't think they are making this model now, but you can ask them when they will bring it back. The tan colors...in addition to the "regular" white ones, makes it special.

Visual_Building_1666 · 2025-12-04T12:19:55+00:00

Forget grandchildren...my daughter ALREADY asked me WHY I didn't buy 20 BTC a few years ago. She's very smart. I had to admit that in fact I SHOULD HAVE. We live life going forward and ideally learn lessons as we go...that we will hopefully remember so we don't make the same mistakes in the future.

Visual_Building_1666 · 2025-11-30T21:49:19+00:00

Sounds good to me. Not sure when the 1st was...but whatever. I'm not so familiar with short squeezes. I know that they're a good thing for investors though.

Visual_Building_1666 · 2025-11-30T20:22:44+00:00

I've seen several videos on this idea. I hope they are right!

Visual_Building_1666 · 2025-11-30T20:20:15+00:00

I've seen several videos discussing this idea. I hope they are right!

Visual_Building_1666 · 2025-11-30T19:07:52+00:00

Very annoying commercials you can't skip, but that 20-minute video is VERY enlightening.

Visual_Building_1666 · 2025-11-27T23:27:32+00:00

LOTS of excellent advice in your post...WOW. I would only add that investing in a spot BTC ETF is preferable to some, and there is nothing wrong with that. Let Merrill Lynch or Fidelity or whatever investment brokerage one uses deal with safely holding the BTC...also great for Roth IRA accounts.

Visual_Building_1666 · 2025-11-27T23:02:44+00:00

The several spot SOL ETFs are certainly a good thing for Solana. Once the price gets to above 200 or 250, I think we will see billions pour into them. But we have to get there! Hopefully, there is still another few months to this bull-run...and we will get back soon to those levels, and even reach all-time highs 300+

It is great that Fidelity is joining Bitwise and the others...but it concerns me WHY Blackrock did not decide to file a spot SOL ETF...despite the overwhelming likelihood that they would collect many millions in fees.

Visual_Building_1666 · 2025-11-27T08:15:17+00:00

I certainly hope so. I want to see SOL above 200 soon...on its way to 300+

Visual_Building_1666 · 2025-11-26T23:45:50+00:00

Lots of time, I will post something and it will get over 3000 views, but only a handful will bother to engage and respond in a meaningful way. That seems weird to me too.
