No you can't! You cannot sell your bitcoin for $69k right now. You can only sell your bitcoin for $69k worth of stable coins.
When I was browsing the buttcoin subreddit, I learned that you can't actually sell your bitcoin for cash and you can only sell your bitcoin for stable coins. I also learned that ["bitcoin is only going up because of the crypto-friendly banks closing. You can't cash out crypto right now, so the only direction is up."](https://i.imgur.com/9D4fDsG.png)
As that buttcoiner said, "are you afraid to try to sell some bitcoin for cash? Just take $16 or whatever out, use it to buy a pizza tonight."
The super active Buttcoin moderator [AmericanScream has been pushing that narrative that it's impossible to sell crypto for fiat currency for months now.](https://i.imgur.com/JnVMDLI.png). AmericanScream cannot be wrong. He has a YouTube channel and he where he posts dozens of hours of videos explaining why bitcoin is a scam. He spends hours posting in the buttcoin sub every day. All of the buttcoiners believe anything that AmericanScream says. He's like their messiah. He literally cannot be wrong.

Sending bitcoin to yourself within the same singlesig wallet (or using a coin control tool to select UTXOs) to consolidate UTXOs makes sense to me. I have a stack in singlesig that I was going to consolidate using Sparrow, but its actually an amount that I would feel more comfortable having in a 2-of-3 multisig (a new wallet) for that extra peace of mind. Am I correct that sending to a *new* wallet will consolidate funds in the same manner as sending/receiving within the *same* wallet? Any extra nuance with multisig? My thinking is that I'll only move funds to this multisig a handful of times. Appreciate any insights.

I am a huge believer in bitcoin. I have been investing since 2017 and made my stack the largest through 2020.
That being said, I do not own a house and stupidly financed a large RV in 2021 that my wife and I travelled the West Coast of America and lived in full-time for close to two years.
With all the glory bitcoin is, it does not help me when it comes to the eyes of the bank. I’ve been unsuccessfully trying to get a mortgage for the last few years; with my entire savings being 100% into self custodied corn, they basically consider me a povert.
Also, part of the reason that the bank is not looking kindly on us, is the large debt I have on the RV. I am ready to sell it and have a buyer locked and loaded, but there will be close to $40,000 in negative equity.
My plan is to cash out that amount of bitcoin, pay off the negative equity, and then the payments that I would’ve been paying on the RV, I will dollar cost average back into IBIT.
The reason I’m thinking of going with the ETF versus spot bitcoin, is that it can at least be favourable in the eyes of the bank portfolio wise and it will (hopefully) set me up for better chances of a mortgage within a year- without losing all of my exposure.
Is this stupid?
I also may have the chance to borrow the money from family, but with the goal of trying to reclaim my cash flow, it seems a little counterproductive. | r/bitcoin | I am a huge believer in bitcoin. I have been investing since 2017 and made my stack the largest through 2020.

Bitcoin noob here, but my basic understanding is that there is a fair bit of computing behind every crypto transaction, plus the mining and everything else and that it's possible that crypto in general becomes a big target for it's environmental "impact",
How would this impact a "standard user" who just wants a couple grand hiding away or for a couple transactions here and there and how likely do you think this is to happen? | r/bitcoin | Bitcoin noob here, but my basic understanding is that there is a fair bit of computing behind every crypto transaction, plus the mining and everything else and that it's possible that crypto in general becomes a big target for it's environmental "impact",

If Bitcoin becomes a greenwashing target, it may face increased regulatory scrutiny and pressure to adopt more sustainable practices. For a standard user, this might mean higher transaction fees or longer transaction times. However, the impact on small transactions or holdings would likely be minimal. The probability of this happening is moderate, given the growing focus on environmental sustainability. | r/bitcoin | If Bitcoin becomes a greenwashing target, it may face increased regulatory scrutiny and pressure to adopt more sustainable practices.

ELI5:
A block filled with tens of thousands of transactions takes the same computational effort to mine as an empty block does. (Empty blocks occur sometimes due to nuances in how mining works).
The miners are not computing transactions. Any cheap raspberry pi computer can do that. Miners are providing security against bad actors trying to revert transactions and “double spend”.
Sometimes mining difficulty use goes *down* when miners go offline and the system self-adjusts to keep block tiles at a 10 minute average.
There is correlation between adoption and energy use. Since higher prices will entice more mining. But that’s not a direct relationship. | r/bitcoin | ELI5:

> crypto in general becomes a big target for it's environmental "impact",
Already happening, and will continue to happen. But just like making cars illegal, it's very unlikely that we will ever live in a world where there is not a single car, anywhere. There will always be some third world country that still uses cars even when the rest of the world is peddling around on bikes.
In the end, most are more concerned with appearing environmentally conscientious than actually being environmentally concurrences.
Alcohol, Tobacco, Gambling, and Bitcoin, will exist forever. Regardless of how "bad for the world" people claim them to be. | r/bitcoin | > crypto in general becomes a big target for it's environmental "impact",

There is some relation between transactions and mining in the opposite direction, if the average fee per transaction is $1000, and \~500 thousand transactions are mined on average, that does mean that a large portion of $500 million per day will be spent on electricity to mine BTC. | r/bitcoin | There is some relation between transactions and mining in the opposite direction, if the average fee per transaction is $1000, and \~500 thousand transactions are mined on average, that does mean that a large portion of $500 million per day will be spent on electricity to mine BTC. | r/Bitcoin | 2024-24-05 |

OK, so lets say they pass a law making ownership illegal. Will that stop people from getting it? Sure maybe some people, but others will get it from other sources, just like what has happened in China and other countries where it was banned.
If the US bans it, that won't stop the rest of the world, it just slow down the prosperity of the American people, and government. It won't stop Bitcoin from creating new blocks, it wont stop the rest of the world from accumulating. The rest of the world will move on while America falls behind.

It’s not even big government it’s big corporations at this point.
Big government equates to the legislative branch that’s entrenched with big corporations via lobbying kick backs.
If they COULD have crushed it, it would have happened prior to this ETF, they tried with Gensler but it looks like OTHER corporations want to put their little dick beaters in the crypto shitpot so I don’t see it happening now that they’ve figured out they get their cut via the ETF plays.

US and China are fighting to get control of BTC. Crush it? Not in the short term. In the long term?

I agree, but a counter-argument to that may be that bitcoin is different in that it challenges the government's power directly. Alcohol, marijuana, whatever, arent the same kind of threat to the government as bitcoin is | r/bitcoin | I agree, but a counter-argument to that may be that bitcoin is different in that it challenges the government's power directly.

Agreed.
Bitcoin in the US will be as "legal" as BitTorrent in 20 years. Plenty of people will still use it, but most non-technical users will be in ETFs and custodial exchanges.
Hardware wallets (Trezor, Ledger, Coldcard) will require users to "register" their XPUBs with FinCERN. Those who don't will be guilty of some new felony they invent in the near future. | r/bitcoin | Agreed.

You think all governments will come together to ban Bitcoin all at once? Sure, one might, but not everyone. It will just put countries who embrace it ahead of the rest. And if the citizens want it, governments really have no way to actually stop it other than blocking the on/off ramps. It will slow mainstream adoption but enhance self custody and the Bitcoin circular economy.

for starters, electrum. Sure, it's a hot wallet that runs on your PC, so don't use it if your PC is full of virusses. But it's an open-source wallet that introduces you to the concepts of seed phrase, private keys, and public adresses.
If you later decide to prefer cold storage, you can still switch to any wallet that uses the same seed-phrase-to-key algorithm. | r/bitcoin | for starters, electrum.

This sub always pushing newbies into hardware wallets but I believe user knowledge on how btc works and safe practices is the most important and first step in self custody.
I go on Ledger sub and there are people using these wallets who cant even check a tx on an explorer or don’t even know that "hardware wallet” is just an overpriced dedicated device used to generate your SeedPhrase which is actually the real wallet and losing your seed it means losing your funds.
Op I would advice you to download some hot wallets like BlueWallet, Electrum, Green Wallet, Exodus wallet, Safepal wallet etc and start experimenting with them.
Learn how to write down your seed phrase and how to recover it. Eg you can generate a seed from bluewallet and then recover it using Electrum or exodus.
The SEED PHRASE IS YOUR WALLET not any device or app.
You can even send a small amount from your Coinbase into any of these hotwallets and then send to another hot wallet on your phone just to see how it works outside of exchange accounts.
I learned a lot about Btc by downloading and using hotwallets , they are free . When you understand how It works you can even make your own cold or air gapped wallet with a phone without buying any hardware device. | r/bitcoin | This sub always pushing newbies into hardware wallets but I believe user knowledge on how btc works and safe practices is the most important and first step in self custody.

Well said. I will add though, be sure you're downloading a legit version of whichever wallet you choose. I know at least in the case of Exodus, fake/scam versions occasionally pop up on the app stores, which can look very convincing. Do a little research before deciding which wallet you want, then make sure you're getting the real deal. | r/bitcoin | Well said.
