Bitcoin Price Tracking & Discussion -- 2025

Ordinals. They'll either have to get rid of Taproot or the miner's will have to stop processing Ordinals.

OK. Thank you, Raiders.

[Arky]

Ethereum shakin' a leg.

$2,384

[JIBBBY]

Crypto is certainly on the up tick!

[raiders72001]

Solana ecosystem hit, looks like it's now Cardano's time.

[garygroundwork]

Bitcoin
Eth
Solana
Cardano

That'll do me.

Good list.

[Vene1616]

Oh yeah. Many "experts" say Bitcoin is only going to 2x or 3x from here - that's the conservative side. Some of the alts are going to blow that away.
.

alts... like Threshold T token?

1) Do you like Bankless' take that both ETH and Solana may get to be much more similar in 10 years than they are today?

- ETH has decentralization figured out. UX sucks. Will slowly improve UX, maintaining DC
- Solana has best UX ever. No decentralization. Will slowly gravitate towards DC, maintaining great UX

2) Which in your opinion is the easier problem to fix?
Poor adoption - caused by bad UX - in ETH?
or
Negative economics - caused by not even trying to make money off of selling blockspace/having sizeable transaction fees - in SOL?

It got crazy on Sat/Monday. Only normalized - somewhat - on Wednesday.

[JIBBBY]

USDC is at 5.05% on coinbase. Federally insured. Like a secure bank savings account but juiced. That's a win!

I got a bunch of money in that now. It's working.. Well that and T-Bills which are state tax exempt in California where I live now.

1. spot ETF getting approved. Insiders know this and now is the time. There will be pull backs.
2. spot ETF gets passed over and there there's a huge dump.

We won't be totally bankless but banks are definitely going to take a big hit with the ETHs and SOLs.

SOL just had a JTO airdrop. They did this move to become more and more decentralized.

SOL doing some awesome stuff. BONK is their SHIB. BONK also airdropped first to NFT holders a while back. This will be in DeFi, Exchanges, Gaming. Be careful with the liquidity pools unless you know what you are doing. They are paying out crazy percentages.

[JIBBBY]

Peaks and valleys with crypto so don't get to happy. I think it's peaking again now and ready to bottom out again. I hope I'm wrong for you fellas though.

[Arky]

I dunno about that one. I just know there will be some that will skyrocket and that is the whole trick, eh.... finding them.

Solana is on an absolute tear. Just $21 two months ago. Now, $73.32. Interesting project when I first noticed it but I never got around to investing due to being tapped out. I might go for it during the next bear market.

[Arky]

Saylor now up to 174,500 Bitcoin or 0.83% of all the Bitcoin in the world.

DCA price of $30.5K.

I got out of SOL at the wrong time. I'm changing strategy for this bull run. Keeping BTC and ETH. AI and gaming will be on the list. If I like SOL, ADA, etc I'll buy something in that ecosystem that has a micro to mid cap. Example, I'll buy a BONK rather than a SOL.

I like that idea.

As I've mentioned, I've got some stragglers that I will dump when the bull market seems to be in full swing. I will probably sell into a stablecoin because it's nice to have the extra capital on hand for a rainy day. Right now, I just sell a little ETH when I need extra cash and I really hate doing that.

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Thanks for the notes, boys. I've been pretty clear on my position. Might put me in camp of the Bitcoin maximalists.

If I hear this correctly, you guys think ETH (and other alt-coins) figure to out-perform BTC in the upcoming bull-run. I do hold a small amount of ETH. But I'd be willing to buy a little more ETH.

I'm honest in saying that some of these other coins are over my head. I don't like the idea that the ETH supply can't be precisely quantified. To me, that's the key driver for BTC.

Don't worry, it's not the US Dollar. Only 18m can be added each year. A couple of years ago they added a burn mechanism. The amount is circulation right now isn't at an all time high. They'll always make sure to curb inflation.

Thanks, Raider. I read about the burn. I just don't like the uncertainty.

FWIW: Just bought a little more ETH. Just for diversification.

[actiondan]

is george soros satoshi?

If you want uncertainty, you should see what I bought today starting with MEME coins.

more like the anti-Satoshi.

Ha-ha, good Luck with those. Like I said, those are over my head.

quick thought:

Fu... Elizabeth Warren.

I think we are all doing it a little differently and that's fine.

The forum is a good place to come and compare notes....

I'll post this one that I bought, JTO, but be careful, it's not like jumping back in ADA. The JTO airdrop was 2 days ago. Airdrop holders could dump. I have a Phantom wallet and trade it on Raydium. But like I said, be prepared to lose it all on these new tokens.

Haha. Politicians have been known to make some stupid comments.

"Pocahantas" Warren might take the cake. View it as free entertainment.

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Here's a Warren link:

I wonder if Warren actually believes what she says. Probably not. Wow, she is an Air-head.

[risKingDigits]

Almost dipped below 40k…

Good Luck this week. Hold on.

Bull Run coming.
