Delete your apps, destroy your phone, go live in a cave in the desert and contemplate life for 5 years. Then return to civilization wiser and much, much richer.

Yeah, right about now that's looking like the right call. I also sold my MANA and ADA a few weeks ago and then they went way up.

Well, I'm sticking with VET. If this causes VET to never grow again...well, I owe everyone an apology, but I'm not going to jump out of it any time soon.

Getting back in over the weekend is probably the way to go, but I got back in at .1850 today because I don't see it crashing to the degree that we predicted. Yeah, it seems like the "crash" was already pre-emptively going on before the speech. Though I did make some gains, selling at .21 a couple days ago and buying at .185. I don't think it's going to end up at .15 or anything crazy like that. Was thinking today would be the day of a large sell-off but not really.

In retrospect I'm probably buying back in too early. Good chance it'll be better to get it on the weekend. Right now it's all about getting the best deal before it rebounds. It's still following a similar price trajectory to what MANA was doing a few months ago.

sounds like a great opportunity to get frozen in stasis and come back out in 10 years the same age and a fuckton richer

I don't have time to dig up sources right now but look into stranded energy and how Bitcoin can monetize it. Have a big river in Iceland that is too far away from civilization to utilize? Put in some mining rigs and a Blockstream satellite and you've effectively monetized 'unusable' energy. Own 1000 acres in the Sahara? Build a solar array with Bitcoin rigs. You've just monetized previously worthless real estate and increased human productivity by transmuting real energy into digital value.

Civilization has been built around trade routes historically. It could be built around energy sources in the future.

I'm not being condescending when I say you need to do some research. Your questions have answers if you take the time to look. You shouldn't trust me or anyone else to figure it out for you.

My friend lives in Iceland. He knows these brothers who are sheep farmers somewhere down south. They generate their own electricity via a small mountain stream that runs past their farm. Just before the price of BTC jumped to around $18k they had set up an interesting rig. They bought bitcoin mining rigs and connected them around the barn, vehicle shop and sheep house. They mine BTC with free electricity while also providing heating around the buildings. I think they've made more doing this than farming sheep over the past couple of years. Wish I had a farm in the middle of nowhere in Iceland.
