If I was a trader I would short XRP now

But I'm not so gonna just stay humble and stack sats

Wikipedia got back to me about accepting Bitcoin and they said it would damage their brand because climate change 💀🤡

It is. Come shred it sometime!

I think about this way too often

A $300,000 home loan now requires nearly 8 bitcoins as collateral, with a staggering annual interest rate of 16.21%. This highlights the high costs associated with bitcoin loans, as preparations ramp up for the upcoming Africa Bitcoin Conference. #Bitcoin #studybitcoin

This is what it looks like directly behind that wave. Attain up the eddy to the wave and float 20 seconds on the deep flatwater back to port. But your are heard bro

“Donald Trump totally understands #Bitcoin ” 🫠

It’s simpler than it might seem:

When you normally buy stock, you do so at today’s price, then you could sell it at tomorrow’s price right? You make or lose based on the difference.

A short, or a bet that it will fall, makes money because it’s actually an agreement to BUY it tomorrow, and a promise to sell it at today’s price. So if today’s price is $90 and tomorrow it’s $85, someone just agreed to buy at $90 what you can now buy for $85 (pocket the $5).

Now a typical option contract is a super exaggerated version of that. In the simple example above, you need $85 in order to make $5. And you could be on the hook for $90 or more. So what if you said, “let’s make that short bet, but I only want to put up $5 for the $90 price, so if it falls more than that $5, I get auto closed out of the trade and lose everything, but this way I can make that same $5 by only betting $5” - ie. He gets like 16X exaggerated gains or losses.

So in this case you do the same thing, but have a limit to the option that it can’t hit because you are betting on way more shares than you actually have the money for. So if you have that same $85 to bet in total, you could make $85 (or double your money) if it simply goes up to $90 (obviously assuming you bet that it goes up, a “call”). However you lose ALL of your $85 if it merely falls back down to $80.

This is how someone can bet $10 million on a “long” (i bet its gonna go up), at $97K, but then lose EVERYTHING if it just falls back down to $95K, because they thought they could MAKE $10 million if it only went up to $99K instead.

This is pretty simplified, but the gist of the idea.

TL;DR It’s basically just a hyper leveraged contract with very strict limits on what the price can do and how much time things have to happen in, meaning both your gains and your losses are insanely exaggerated. So you mostly either get rich, or get rekt.

I feel this one 😂

This guy was trying to make $10 million in a few days or weeks, and it cost him &10 million that would’ve been $100 million in probably a handful of years if he had just put them in cold storage and focused on living life instead of gambling it away.

Fiat mind will make a fiat life, no matter how successful they are in the short run.
