How does this work? Can I borrow 1 BTC from myself to buy another BTC at 0% interest?

Do whatever you want, it’s your BTC your you’re taking a loan against. Just know the terms.


Looking at $COIN program, there is an interest rate on the loan, along with fees. lol. I can see this approaching 0% as more loan options come to the market. I’ve seen this program from other platforms with better terms years ago. Once the lending market matures, I can see exotic loan offerings with higher risk coming on board.

Welcome to the crime cycle. Seems like the Silicon Valley takeover of the White House will include Bitcoin, crypto, meme coins and AI. I will trade around it accordingly. This $TRUMP memecoin is all you need to know. $25 Billion Market cap increase overnight. Funny to see like the Biden administration schemes that were run.

I think it’s about to be the Wild West with innovation, adoption, scams and Ponzis as the digital economy is ushered in. Kind of reminds me of the internet adoption leading up to the bubble bursting.

No way I’m buying any pump. Now should price drop below <$5, then my interest might be piqued.
 
Because I believe meme coins will have a resurgence, I’m buying Shiba Inu with some throw away cash. You never know…
My favs are SOL,BTC, …Near protocol and Immutable X

$TRUMP was minted on $SOL so that’s great marketing for that chain. $SOL been pumping. Reached all time high this morning.
 
Whatever happened to Evergrow? Hope that guy's okay.
 
I don't want to do a mark my words....but the administration pulling **** like this BEFORE they have even taken over is just a small taste of what's to come in the next four years at least. This is going to set crypto in the US back a huge amount.

So wild. Our POTUS-elect 2 days from inauguration. Some folks thought his account was hacked by scammers.

I caught $SOL $130-140 last year. Trump is signaling the US is open for business for better or worse. There’s gonna be a lot of opportunities for the risk takers out there. Exciting times ahead.
Deployment to a warzone was exciting too. lol

I bought SOL for $200 in Nov 2021. Never thought my SOL bag would have better returns than ETH.

Been in sol since $20. Been saying it’s the play of the cycle in this thread for a while now.

ETH sentiment is at an all-time low right now. SOL is dominating the meme coin space, and I’m glad you guys are profiting from it. I don’t think it’ll be sustainable, but who knows how long the meme coin mania will last this cycle?

Different entities are investing in ETH, including Trump’s WLFI whose holdings are majority ETH (>$30M bought within the last couple of days), not that ETH ever needed Trump to succeed. Follow the money.

Full disclosure: I’m obviously an ETH permabull. Will check in with you guys in 2030.
 
Why are stocks pumping but crypto dumping? 🤔
 
We might be entering an era of deflation. IMO China releasing and open source AI model, for allegedly a fraction of the cost and a fraction of energy input is wild to hear. We shall see if those claims are true.

But what I think this might reprice technology to the marginal cost which always approaches 0. The book “the price of tomorrow” speaks on this.

How do you "innovate" a $trump coin. To me it seems like he became president and is leveraging a coin on his position.
Melania coin out there now as well. No computer algorithms necessary. It's a clean product!

Or it's an opportunity. I'm holding off until the end of this week for guidance amongst these tech giants. BIg names took big hits.

Deflation in the long run imo isn’t a bad thing. I wouldn’t mind the price of most things go down vs a money or currency. I would prefer my purchasing power in fiat increase over time not decrease, but that’s just the way the the current system is set up.
 
When does alt season start?

Expect a lot of volatility in the coming months. I’m still in my altcoin trades from last year, but presently only acquiring $BTC and moving to cold storage.

I think owning hard assets ($GOLD $BTC some $ALTS) during these Sovereign trade wars will be proven to be the right move for me.
 
Guess I'm holding my bags another 4 years. Got greedy last month.
 
BTC is back at 100k but ETH is still below 3k 😫
 
Inflation coming in at 3% (50% higher than the Federal Reserve goal) allows us to see how incompetent the Fed and federal government are. The current system requires constant new credit (debt!) to keep the balloon inflated. Problems start to arise when inflation moves from equities and assets to consumables.


How they keep the balloon inflated and keep the federal government operation (9 trillion of the national debt has to be rolled over this year at a higher interest rate). Will be interesting to watch play out. I believe having hard assets (Gold, Bitcoin, etc) will be beneficial. Let’s see the Fed and Trump administration next move.

I don't think you understand what the term "hard asset" means. In no world should we ever be calling bitcoin a "hard" asset. By its very nature a hard asset is TANGIBLE and VISIBLE. You have to be able to physically touch it with your hands.
