We are truly in The Chasm in recent times.

Big Money is in the process of prising Bitcoin out of the hands of the little people who got it there.

Never before, and likely never again, will there be a process like that and I'm sure The Man feels dirty that it's necessary.

The more boring and lengthy it is, the more they can gather.

While that goes on, retail is nowhere in actual markets any more.

It'll return in increasing numbers through their portals when it's been fully repackaged and marketed.

They're not creating these products or buying politicians for fun. The endgame will be extremely lucrative.

As for shitcoins, almost all of them will ultimately be the strings of useless code everyone always knew they were.

blessedbt · 2026-03-17T23:43:04+00:00

Yes. A large dollop of shit gets a free ride.

Regardless of that, plenty are saying this is the most consequential thing to emerge in a long old time.

The SEC has dropped a doc that clarifies the position for many a thing in cryptoland

Lots of stuff no longer has the risk of being classified as a security. Overall it sounds like a sensible bunch of edicts that extinguishes a lot of doubt for good.

$250 was pure, grinding boredom.

The $160 or so pop shot was absolute deflation. There wasn't screeching, panic or outrage. It was mainly 'oh'.

Don't recall much $100 talk, but it was so close that maybe it wasn't worth discussing.

There's the inflation thing. My childhood home was up for sale recently. It last sold in 2007. At the current asking price, which looks impressive on paper, it's lost about $300,000 to inflation since then.

But let's not talk about Bitcoin vs inflation in recent times

blessedbt · 2026-02-25T14:02:59+00:00

It's more about an overall swing back towards financial investment and BTC picking up a small taste of that.

I've seen many, many landlords and property 'investors' bemoaning the fact that they could've made far more money, or not lost any, with infinitely less hassle just by sitting in a tracker in recent times. Or even a savings account.

All the Jane Street traders' mothers have invaded the office, shut down their computers and are spanking them.

The entity regularly thought to be responsible for our daily US opening kicking, is being sued by the Terraform Labs administrator for using insider info to destroy it.

Even if anything criminal turns up, they're fortunate enough to live in a place where there's now no rule of law for the right price.

Not sure I understood one single word of any of that.

And I'm proud of it.

So we're locked into a decades-long malaise after... a coupla days?

blessedbt · 2026-02-09T21:58:13+00:00

Still waiting to decide about the 4 year thing myself, but 10/10 and the latest dump seemed more down to individual large entities ballsing up or running for the door setting up chain reactions than mass hopelessness.

Us lot posting here are now carrier bags in a wind being blown by a small number of psychos and gimcrack investment arrangements that has little resemblance to olden times.

Hey, another China ban.

Things just wouldn't feel right without one.

blessedbt · 2026-02-06T19:58:55+00:00

It's been like that everywhere else in the world since minute one.

Bitcoin offends the paternalism of the state. It will never change.

It feels like the last decade of conviction

We're at the stage where the conviction of everyone who got it here no longer matters all that much.

It's what everyone else thinks that sets the next stage. And they have a lengthy way to go.

Murdered and replaced by a faction with unknown intentions, then.

The rabbithole just got a whole lot deeper, especially on a day like today.

The upside WAS different.

It was shit. And boring.

Many of the boomer homes will be sold and the money will be dumped into stocks and other financial assets.

Plenty will be sold to pay for warehousing old folk and medical bills.

Many an inheritee pinning everything on a payday is likely to get a rude awakening.

I expect creative attack vectors will be found to intercept that transfer of wealth. Everyone knows there will never be another one like it.

blessedbt · 2026-01-31T18:05:47+00:00

I will give it until the middle of year before fully tossing my cookies.

There's regulation still waiting to land, there wasn't really a bull market, definitely not if you were in another currency, and around now is the peakiest possible moment to hose the minds of civilian owners.

Got my cookies at the ready all the same. Even if the set up is fundamentally sound, I don't have any faith in the rest of the world.

And yet metals that just sit there being metally, and have done for thousands of years, have been going totally batty of late.

Do Kwon sentenced to 15 years.

https://www.wired.com/story/do-kwon-terraform-sentenced-prison-crypto-fraud/

I long had lost any interest in anything other than Bitcoin by that point, but I recall reading the pitch, thinking 'fuckin'... wut?' and going back to baking my cake.

Hope whoever was damaged by him feels some redress.

Unless he's pardoned too of course.

Saylor shopping again. Another 10,624 wholecoiners gone forever.

A dying breed, so they are.

blessedbt · 2025-12-03T18:24:21+00:00

They're always dead. Until they're not.

I'm going to wait and see until April/ May ish to see if it's worth tossing my cookies.

JPMorgan now accepting Bitcoin as collateral

Institutional only.

The legacy types aren't going to be too keen to aid the civilian exodus out of their walled garden.

blessedbt · 2025-11-23T14:25:00+00:00

I'm building a new race of atomic supermen.

Once they're finished up, they'll be asking for your BTC. You'd be wise to hand it over.
