    All this means is that crypto miners who are in the F2pool (which is massive) are moving their coins from their F2pool wallets to other wallets. It doesn't necessarily mean they are selling.
    My guess is that some are selling and some are just securing their coins in cold wallets because the rise in BTC price also means a rise in liability.
    I mine bitcoin and litecoin and my miners are in the nicehash pool. I move my coins out of my nicehash wallet about every 10 days.

    It's endless and it can be damn confusing. I know quite a bit about the mining side of things and how coins like litecoin and bitcoin function. But if you wanna talk ETH, BNB, defi, new coins...I don't know shit

    Hit rate on these ATH contests has to be > 70%. Never had so much fun going broke.

    F2Pool has been dumping huge amounts of bitcoin all at once. This has been the cause for some of the big dips. This is different than the outflow that ace properly described.

    I think you jumped the gun Dwight.

    But can't argue taking profits after the meteoric rise the past 6 months.

    Definitely a good idea to sell some but an even better idea to hold some on a ledger long term. The most valuable piece of information is this: After 2025 there's not gonna be anymore bitcoin mined. There will only be 21 million total mined and then at that point it will become a scarce resource. HODL long term fellas. It's the smartest thing you'll ever do. Also I'd definitely keep some ethereum and XRP. Don't be a dumbass like my son Jibbby and sell at $36k cause you made a couple hundred and got scared like a bitch . You're all welcome.

    profit is always good. I hope it keeps going up. I have other stuff to invest in which I am using this cash for.

    I bought all my btc for less that 2000.

    Your son being the millionaire that he is, seems to be very conservative with his investments & gambling. He bets like a 100 dollars a game. That’s like if I fuckin’ bet one dollar per wager wtf

    Hello:
    I won some mBTC in the football pool last year. It is in an Electrum wallet. It is now up over 50% in value since early January. How do I convert it to cash?
    thank you

    Get set up on an exchange. Gemini or Coinbase.

    If you do not plan to continue using bitcoin, maybe just search for a bitcoin ATM near you? Most expensive method for fees though.

    If you use a regular exchange you will need to signup and give them ID. If that isnt a problem for you gemini.com coinbase.com or download the CashApp on your phone.


    You could also deposit it to a book?
