    Not really with a private cold wallet, but still because of the ledger they can trace every single fraction of a BTC and keep "blacklisting" any wallet that receives money until eventually it's hits a KYC wallet or legit business which gets fined. There is never any way to "wash" it like cash...

    ‘the point of can’t be printed/inflated is not to be underestimated as it gains traction. Not just the US but not a single economy couldnt ‘inflate’ their way out of shit policy if BTC were truly adopted as reserve(hint that’s why it will never be) you’d also HAVE to balance budgets Which means...

    I have absolutely bought and sold PUTs against MSTR many times. I didn't do it during this recently downward trend and I really should have considering hindsight :) You are correct that he seems to be biting off a bit more than he can chew with all of these preferred shares, dilutions, etc...

    Dude put his money where his mouth is at least. Saddle up. I’m a bit busy with work so not paying attention as much as I normally do and no short term plays last 60 days or so. I have noticed that my 6month bets are all showing 2+:1 call to put ratios but still declining daily MAs. So I am not...

    A fucking billion dollar bet against. i feel like that could move the market even on PLTR?(didn’t look up market cap) im also interested in the dates because that’s just insane. I suppose if you trailing stop a buy far enough out it would work. But depending on date I feel like my money is put...

    Good luck man. I’ve had many jobs over the years, the people are what matters most. You spend more than half your day with them

    Yea earnings mean shit for MSTR. No idea what his long game really is beyond being the BTC bank of the world or some shit. But it’s approach that mNav of 1 I’ve been eyeing for a while now. If it hits I’m in pretty hard(I think, current situation and no crazy new variables)

    I’m working in a lab with some “developers” this week and got to see one of these. Code agents for the first time. I’ll admit it was neat and I could see how in good hands it would be helpful but holy fuck what I saw rustled my jimmies. they literally cannot code. They keep asking the agent to...

    Tread carefully. I was seeing this pop up in various circles for weeks and finally decided I’d go for it at the first sign of the shift. I posted but it was 1$ and I immediately sold the call at that strike. Made 14%. Could have made 900% lol at absolute peak. But my ability to time that shit...

    like everything the world will adapt but this absolutely has the potential to become a disruptive force in the next few years. Just like HFT changed things previously. The dust will settle but damn if it won’t shift things. im not sure how it all works, if its technical only or...

    I wasn't aware of where the custody was for each. I suppose all the major plays using Coinbase for custody actually lends to a potential long term play on COIN if that seems to be the US corporate holding platform of choice. Thanks!

    Speaking of a hedge, what is the best vehicle outside of actual BTC to go with in the standard market? Any thoughts? I've been reviewing the charts of IBIT/FTBC and BTC-USD over the last 1-2 years(the funds dont have full BTC history) and they seem to track within 1%. It's really hard to tell...

    Yea, MSTR is way down and mNAV is the lowest it's been a while. I've been watching it to see when the 15m(minute) and then slowly 30m/1d MA's start to cross as I think it would be a good time to get back in since MSTR tends to move quick, but it just keeps dropping. They keep issuing tons of...

    I did, but because I don't have steel balls I got the smallest piece ever :( Never go broke taking profits and all that but I knew this was a meme short squeeze from reddit so I bought in at 1.03 for like 1.5k and then immediately sold weekly CC for about 15% so I was super happy! And I could...

    I don’t remember specific seasons and episodes as I joined this party quite late. So I’d have to check.

    On the MSTR...it's not quite there yet, but what I am waiting for is the 15M chart to cross back over with strong signals. I think when that happens it could easily go back to 350$+ in short order (which is over 10%!) So this is what I am watching. It tried to do this around 310 a few days ago...

    agree which is why I’m watching closely first. I would gain some confidence at mNAV of 1 for sure. While anything is possible it’s basically a pure ass valuation at that point. Is it def. Muddled due to all his leverage instruments though. i Also love IBIT and BITO has been extremely good to...

    I don't actually believe in the company from a philosophical perspective, but MSTR is nearly a pretty solid low and potential support around 300$. mNAV(share to bitcoin basically) is about 1.4 which is on the historically lower side. I am eyeing another entry to this soon as this stupid thing...

    I have wheeled that a few times, think I even posted it, but it tends to be a bit meme style for me, or at least it was. It's mNAV has been dropping solidly for quite some time so before I go in for real or long term on that I am waiting to see how it flushes out. My best "true bitcoin" exposure...

    As we all know nothing is guaranteed but that fact of never below the 50w line would be a trigger for me to buy calls. But other than ETFs on bitcoin I don’t really know how to do that directly and I have no desire to try and do so on some shady platform outside of IKBR/Fidelity

    I’m just hanging out with my iPhone so not doing deep research but my 20,000ft high suspicion is that the general population is either trying to figure out if gold or bitcoin will win so they are somewhat tethered. I think a major “bitcoin positive” news piece like banks storing bitcoins...

    Long term no, but it does seem like it’s starting to match market more closely. Not sure if we’ll get another +300% year in BTC unless something fundamental changes.

    He did say in his post, which is true and like gun control, leverage wasn’t the problem, it was the hands/mind that used it. Pretty rational for someone who just lost 60 million. Id kill myself, but then again if I had 60 million I’d also have it so stable(SPY) and just live off dividends or...

    I suppose any solid company heavily hurt by poor relationshi with China, if you believe the political US/China climate will eventually reduce in tension, they tend to go right back to where they were. Big risk/big reward I guess.

    I don’t think sky is falling, but losing a month gains in a single day is noteworthy at the least. I think will be like before and some counter-tweet in the next 2 weeks will correct it, but I guess we’ll find out

    Yea. That’s most of my portfolio today but I can’t pay attention to whatever’s going on. Seemed like a more widespread and larger drop than just a regular old down day.

    I'm struggling to follow along recently due to work travel....but did someone tweet or something today? Looks mostly red across the entire market by a huge amount(5%+ on many of my positions). Normal correction or is there economic or world news I missed?

    Ok, I spoke on memory without research, but I did just check. It Will take her forever since she’s starting with a low amount, but you can sell an ATM SPY call for Monday @0.60 or 60$. 4 of those brings 240/day or about 1k a week. Figure you only get that 50% of the time as you wheel so yea, I...

    her numbers seem quite aggressive but earning 1500 a week via CC isn’t really that challenging. one could ”easily” do that with sub 200k i mean, you could daily wheel the SPY with CC/CSP for 500+ a day with 200k(400ish shares). I support her vision, it’s better than people door dashing daily...

    There are some and all are up about 50% YTD. https://etfdb.com/themes/space-etfs/ market is up quite a bit also, but I guess stuff like this shows that “to beat the market” you don’t need to be a badass day trader, but just notice macro trends and adjust allocations maybe 3-5 times a year.

    If you are that worried set a trailing stop buy. If it keeps going up you miss things like you said, but if it has a correction you’ll get the best possible correction price, depending on your trail. Or just buy daily/weekly ATM puts to try and shave a bit off the current price. But assume...
