    This thread is awesome.
    There's been a shift in the media already on crypto with all the news on institutional money moving into BTC.

    Lots of guts to those who put the house on btc earlier this year

    Haha. That’s like asking someone how much money the have in their bank account. I sold my house and put the lot into bitcoin. I have all my super in bitcoin also. So I have enough to live comfortably if it goes to what price I think it will.

    It was the right play from a macro standpoint. Sp500, nasdaq, gold had reached all time highs already. Bitcoin was very undervalued at 10k, 50% of its ath, in September.

    2021 will be interesting indeed

    $100k USD sometime next year, right?
    even with a correction, it'll come back down to current values. Seems like a no brainer to anyone willing to do their due diligence.

    I've been holding since mid year but only a little dabble. I'm going in heavy within the next month.

    Nice :)
    Wonder where the tulips guys are these days?
    Probably predicting crypto’s death is any day now :)

    The pullback will hopefully bring it back to 20k in Q1 2021...

    Pretty crazy run on bitcoin now. Surely a correction will come soon. I’m currently up around 300%. Exciting times ahead!

    Getting too hot for my liking. Needs to consolidate.

    In the last cycle, when Bitcoin broke above the previous cycle high, the price rose ~150% over 6 weeks (followed by a 40% 'dip' :D).

    An equivalent this time around would take it to around USD$50,000 by the end of the month, then a drop to $30,000 before much higher prices.

    No idea whether we will see similar this time around, but it's not doing anything it hasn't before.

    I don't have any Bitcoin or similar and recall my son telling me about mining bitcoin many years ago, it's been fascinating to watch this all unfold from the sidelines

    A good article from Nick Maggiulli

    Why I've Changed My Mind on Bitcoin – Of Dollars And Data

    Bitcoin now more than the Real Median Personal Income in the United States

    Bitcoin bullcase is pretty simple. It's Gold 2.0. If you believe that then the the upside floor is USD~$500k. Over what period who knows, could be 1,5,10,20,30 years.

    A 10x even over 20 years is not bad.

    Whatever you do, do not listen to Peter Schiff
    That tard has been criticising Bitcoin since $10
    Imagine if his subscribers had bought $10,000 worth of Bitcoin (1000 Bitcoins) back then

    They'd be deca-millionaires now..

    Instead Peter's own son goes against his father and buys Bitcoin.. and his father will still keep his dogged view to the end - unfortunately
