Some things I've learned after hodling bitcoin since early 2017
1. Never believe anyone's price predictions. 2. Don't "diversify" into other cryptos; none of them are actually decentralized, everything except bitcoin is a shitcoin (yes, really), and it's all gambling. The point of bitcoin is not gambling, but to end modern day slavery (fiat currency). 3. When everyone you know is talking about bitcoin, you're at the top of a bull market. You'll likely be too exuberant to realize it though. It will be obvious in hindsight. 4. Don't "trade some altcoins on the

Grinch steals $180B from Bitcoin market cap this Xmas
The ignition of a new phase of the 2024 cryptocurrency bull market in early November appeared to promise a parabolic Christmas for Bitcoin (BTC) but as more recent trading proved, something might have burned out during the rocketing. Specifically, after surging 56% from $67,811 on November 5 to the all-time high (ATH) above $108,000 on December 17, BTC plunged to its press time price of $97,621, erasing approximately $180 billion from its market capitalization.

While the cryptocurrency space provides a wealth of transformative potential for financial systems — and serves as an exciting market for speculative investments, there’s always a darker side to the story. Although such use cases might be gradually phasing out, cryptocurrencies, and Bitcoin (BTC) in particular, have a history of being used for illegal purposes. To use the most straightforward example, the BTC confiscated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) from dark-web marketplace Silk
XRP is among cryptocurrencies with concentrated ownership in a few top addresses, raising concerns about the impact of centralization. A breakdown of ownership indicates that Ripple-controlled addresses account for most of the asset, primarily locked in escrow. Major exchanges also rank among the top holders. The top 10 XRP holders collectively own 35.39% of the total supply, amounting to 27.53 billion tokens. Ripple dominates this list, with its seven accounts holding 24.53 billion XRP, includi

Stock market wipes $1.5 trillion in a day; Crash imminent?
Wednesday, December 18, proved a particularly bloody day for the stock market as approximately $1.5 trillion was wiped from it before the closing bell. Prominent indices like the small-cap Russell 2,000 and the large-cap S&P 500 both effectively erased their post-election gains. The S&P 500 fell to 5,872.16 points – right between the November 5 close at 5,782.76 and November 6 close at 5,929.04 – and Russell 2,000 to 2,231.51 – below both 2,260.84 on November 5 and 2,392.92 on November 6.
Though most discussed in the context of the staggering post-election rally, XRP’s most recent trend has been one of stagnation, and the latest even turned into a substantial price drop. Specifically, even though the token is up a staggering 115.99% in the last 30 days, it is 3.42% in the red in the last 7 days and 5.53% in the last 24 hours to XRP price today of $2.35.
