Eh, house prices have historically grown, and grown a lot.
Yes, Bitcoin is an excellent hedge against inflation and the flaws of fiat money, but that doesn’t mean you also shouldn’t participate in the game.
Debt is an extremely powerful weapon. Rich people use debt to be rich. There are no rich people that don’t have copious amounts of debt. That doesn’t mean they couldn’t pay off the debt if they didn’t want to. They choose not to because debt is a useful leverage to use.
Not knowing how to leverage debt to your advantage is poor mentality. | r/bitcoin | Eh, house prices have historically grown, and grown a lot.

If bitcoin was ever going to become as big as we all want it to become, then wall street was going to have to get involved at some point. This is just naturally the next step. You have to embrace that the rich and wall street are going to get involve in ANYTHING that has value in the world. The spot ETF approvals show that they care about bitcoin now. There was never a choice and there will always be manipulation.

It is not easy for ETF issuers to manipulate the market due to the incentive structure.
There are multiple Bitcoin ETFs within the US. So if BlackRock tries to manipulate, people will just move to another ETF issuer. The ETF flows and addresses are being constantly monitored by the people and firms within the Bitcoin community, so it will be hard to manipulate.
Now that Hong Kong ETFs are in, there is an incentive for the US ETFs to keep up. If they try to issue paper BTC, the true asset will go to other countries (I believe the Hong Kong ETF allows for Bitcoin <-> ETF interchangeability; I might be wrong). Unlike gold, the transportation of Bitcoin is easy globally. So if one country manipulates, other countries will scoop up the Bitcoin. More countries will catch up and issue their ETFs in the future.
If the ETF whales were to dump the market and try to manipulate it, the underlying asset would simply go to the retail investors since it is easy to buy Bitcoin.
As people start becoming comfortable with Bitcoin, the ETF issuers will have a hard time retaining customers. That is because, the customers can easily decide to buy the underlying asset and keep it in self-custody, instead of paying fees on the ETFs. This will make the ETF issuers work for the customers instead of them trying to manipulate.
With that being said, I still think that it is better to be paranoid and prepared instead of trusting the ETF institutions. Stay humble and stack sats - and don't forget to self-custody! | r/bitcoin | It is not easy for ETF issuers to manipulate the market due to the incentive structure.

Bitcoin ETF is a really great addition to my tax advantaged accounts! It gives me the ability to trade in those accounts without having to be as mindful of fees and capital gains. I'm still researching the crypto related ETFs that aren't just Bitcoin.
I was looking last night, and apparently there are IRAs where you can buy Bitcoin directly. The original contribution is FDIC insured for some of them JIC something happens to the Bitcoin.
You do have to pay attention to who the custodian of the Bitcoin is. I would prefer to pay slightly higher in fees for a fund that keeps their stack in cold wallet trusts vs any CEX. | r/bitcoin | Bitcoin ETF is a really great addition to my tax advantaged accounts!

Dozens of spot Bitcoin ETFs have already existed in many nations around the world for almost 4 years now, yet none of that has happened.
The US is a much larger market of course, but that alone isn't a reason for expecting market manipulation suddenly. If anything, that might make it harder to pull off now.
There are a LOT of people who will never own a Bitcoin wallet or set up an exchange account, yet are interested enough to buy an ETF inside their existing investment portfolio that is held within their familiar brokerage institution that they've been using for like 20+ years.
And they love saving money on capital gains taxes. Or even just getting the broker tax reports to simplify doing their taxes if needed.
And they fear self-custody: screwing something up themselves, or getting scammed resulting in losing access. Or even their beneficiaries not being able to access their inheritance upon death (or just the thought of them stressing about it).
Plus institutional investments add a whole new layer, with companies like Fidelity adding up to 2-3% Bitcoin ETFs into their own generic market-index all-in-one investment ETFs. This makes their huge customer base into Bitcoin owners whether they've even heard of it or not. This effect might accelerate things significantly. | r/bitcoin | Dozens of spot Bitcoin ETFs have already existed in many nations around the world for almost 4 years now, yet none of that has happened.

If Bitcoin is ever to reach what most people would consider to be true global adoption, and reach the market cap milestones we all dream about, it must integrate with Tradfi.
There will absolutely be market manipulation (and there already has been), and your concerns about coinbase are also correct. 👍

My comment on the ETFs, it's great for people who wouldn't normally buy BTC get price exposure. There's also tax advantages of buying the ETF inside a retirement account, zero cap gains. Most of the ETFs publish their wallet addresses because it gives a competitive edge against the ones that don't and inspires confidence in customers to buy the spot BTC product. As for trading, these asset managers are not allowed to trade their customer's assets period. It is illegal. They make money from management fees, that is all. | r/bitcoin | My comment on the ETFs, it's great for people who wouldn't normally buy BTC get price exposure.

> good
By providing a regulatory proxy it gives more people access to bitcoin through a regulatory proxy. They hold bitcoin through one degree of separation. The more registered voters that have exposure to bitcoin, the harder it is for regulators to ban it.
> bad
Congress members can trade in ETFs, while it was a bit questionable if they could trade on exchanges and bitcoin "staking". Basically anything that Congress participates in can be corrupted. Now with the ETFs, members of congress can buy a few hundred billion bitcoin ETF shorts, then make regulation to try to drive the price of bitcoin down.
Another form of attack is to buy stock in the companies that manage the ETFs then make self custodianship illegal to drive holders into the ETFs raising the price of the management company stocks. | r/bitcoin | > good

As the block size war of 2017 has demonstrated, hard forks get wrecked even if you have the majority of corporations backing it. Bitcoin is sufficiently decentralized and is legally considered a commodity.
Even if there were a successful split to PoS somehow, many (most?) bitcoiners would stay with the PoW version, which will ultimately win out against a chain that has demonstrated subservience to blackrock because that defeats the purpose of neutral money | r/bitcoin | As the block size war of 2017 has demonstrated, hard forks get wrecked even if you have the majority of corporations backing it.

I'm 40, just bought my forever home 2 years ago , got wife + 2 kids 9 and 7. I plan to be in this home for at least the next 15 years.
Here's what I suggest - Get your forever home, you'll be happy you did. It brings extreme joy to have a home you know you'll be in for a very long time. You get to garden and fix things up knowing you'll enjoy them and be proud of what you live in. I bought my home and immediately took out a 0% interest synchrony bank loan and got a new roof and new HVAC (only works for home renovations if you own the home and have a history of home ownership). But I know it's worth it because it'll protect my house and my family (also the roof was shit and HVAC was like 30+ years old)
But just do the 20% down payment. At 7-8% interest on the mortgage, I'm sure you'll have opportunity to be able to refinance down the line at a lower %, but even at 7-8%, on a long enough time horizon, bitcoin is going to crush that 7% interest rate.
Basically - do you want a guaranteed return of 7%, or do you want what bitcoin offers? With inflation and the USA debt the way things are, I'm going with bitcoin. I did the 20% down and I don't have enough BTC to pay off my mortgage entirely but I could certainly pay down a huge chunk. In the past 2 years I'm certainly glad I kept my money and energy in bitcoin. And I'm willing to bet that in 5 years, I'll be really glad I kept the bitcoin. | r/bitcoin | I'm 40, just bought my forever home 2 years ago , got wife + 2 kids 9 and 7.

I'm in a similar boat so let me just put out some questions I ask myself:
Do I need a forever home right now or can I wait till mid-2025 or 2026?
How much of my other assets could I liquidate before selling any BTC?
Can I collateralize some BTC, through DeFi for example, to get the house and make payments on both the mortgage and the BTC loan?
I already know I want to have a forever home, but I also know I can wait a little longer, because I really want to have some long-term BTC holdings into my twilight years. | r/bitcoin | I'm in a similar boat so let me just put out some questions I ask myself:

Cold some one please explain how to use the lighting network iv been currently using kraken to purchase and transfer to cold storage. But can't seen to use the lighting network. As fees are taking a big hit.
I'm fairly confident with what I'm doing but starting to satck now regularly and uping my DCA volume. Any help would be great.
Said last year was going start doing this but didnt
didn't.. this year have more disposable income so though sod it,, I'm getting on the ride for at least 15 years lol

I wanted to make a step by step guide to creating a good multisig wallet setup. It's not perfect, but will certainly suffice for increased security. I don't want to get into the nitty gritty details of "why this? why that?" and "how do I make it better?" or "how does this conceptually work?" Just a simple. straight forward. adequate multisig.
1) buy 3 coldcard mk4's. buy a green one, blue one and a red one.
2) buy a microSD unless you already have one
2b) maybe obvious, but ensure you can connect it to your computer, as a macbook user I needed a dongle
3) you probably already have one, but a usbc charger/power supply for the mk4s. HOWEVER, do not use your computer as the power supply, so basically outlet to usbc.
4) ensure your computer can install and run Sparrow Wallet software (can't imagine why it couldn't)
5) once you receive your mk4's, set up one at a time.
NOTE: NEVER CONNECT YOUR mk4s TO YOUR COMPUTER
for the first mk4 setup:
5a) plug usbc power supply to the top of it (DO NOT CONNECT TO THE COMPUTER). I can't remember the exact initial pin code setup but setup your pin code/pin codes
5b) select "New wallet" ? I think it's "New Wallet." They might've called it something else on the newer makes. Should be the first option on the main menu. 24 seed phrase should suffice
5c) write down all 24 words of the seed phrase, it will quiz you to ensure you wrote them down correctly
5d) once done with the seed phrase, insert microSD into side of wallet
5e) go to Settings, Multisig Wallets, Export XPUB, read through if you'd like, press check mark, take note of which color mk4 has which xpub filename, eject microsd
5f) make it back to the main menu and select "Secure logout," disconnect from usbc power supply
6,7) repeat step 5 for your other two mk4s
8) insert microSD into computer
9) on computer install Sparrow Wallet software, open it
10) file -> New Wallet, call the wallet "Triforce"
11) Change Policy Type to "Multi Signature"
12) Change cosigners to 2 / 3
13) Script Type, Native Segwit
14) You'll see three tabs in the Keystores section, for each one, click Airgapped Hardware Wallet, Coldcard multisig, find your microSD and select one of the public keys. If you uploaded the green mk4's xpub, give it the label "Courage," if blue "Wisdom" and if red, "Power"
15) After you've imported all 3 xpubs, click Apply (this creates the wallet). Add a password for the wallet if you want
16) Now you have to make all three wallets aware of the multisig setup. In Sparrow: File, Export Wallet, Export File next to "Coldcard multisig", Save it onto your microSD. take note of the filename. I think it will have a .txt extension
17a) plug one of your mk4's back into the usbc power supply (NOT THE COMPUTER)
17b) insert microSD into the mk4
17c) go to Settings, Multisig Wallets, Import from SD, it will probably say there's only one file to pick, regardless locate the file saved in step 16 and select it, read through if you want, click check mark button
17d) make it back to the main menu and select "Secure Logout", disconnect from power supply
18,19) repeat step 17 for other two mk4s
Now the fun part of testing everything
20) In sparrow for your new wallet, click "Receive" on the left, use that QR code to send a small amount of bitcoin from an exchange or any other wallet. Note that you might want to pay a slightly higher fee just to get this transaction through so you can continue testing
21) wait for the transaction to make it onto the blockchain, and that it shows in the Sparrow "Transactions" tab of your new wallet. i.e. the balance of your wallet
22) close your wallet, re-open it by File -> open wallet
23) close your wallet again, find the location of the wallet file on your computer and delete it
23) repeat steps 10 through 15 to restore the wallet
24) ensure that the balance in the wallet is the amount you sent it in step 20
Now to sign and send a transaction
25) In Sparrow click the "Send" tab on the left. Pay to whatever address you want. You can even use the drop down arrow and click "Triforce (consolidation)" just to send it to yourself. Give it a Label. Select an amount to send. Slide the range slider to make the fee about 50 sats/vB or really whatever will get the transaction through quickly.. we don't want to wait hours for this test to complete
26) "Create Transaction"
27) I honestly can't remember how to use Sparrow, but basically you're going to save this transaction on your microSD as a file. I think there's an option like "save" or "export" to a file or something. Save in on your microSD
28) Now remove your microSD from your computer
29a) plug one of your mk4's into the USBC power supply (DO NOT CONNECT IT TO THE COMPUTER)
29b) insert the microSD
29c) click "Ready to Sign"
29d) I can't remember the prompts but it's very likely it will find the transaction file itself, locate the transaction file saved in step 27, read through all the wording and explanation, click check mark button to sign the transaction
29e) *take note* of the new transaction file's name. It will create a new file on your microSD with a new name, it will probably be something like {original filename}-part-2 or something like that. it will show it on the mk4's screen
29f) I believe it will take you back to the main menu, go down to Secure Logout, disconnect mk4 from power supply
29g) remove microSD
30) repeat step 29 for a different mk4. *it will create yet another transaction file like in 29e, this is the important one* the filename will probably be something like {name}-2-part. something
31) now you've signed the transaction with 2 (of 3) mk4s.
32) insert microSD into computer
33) make sure your computer in connected to the internet, no vpn, maybe close sparrow and re-open. in Sparrow Wallet, file, open transaction, file. select the transaction file that's been signed twice, the importan one from step 30
34) Ensure your computer is connected to the internet, no vpn, and sparrow should have a large "Broadcast" button. If it doesn't, try closing the transaction, check your internet connection and open the signed transaction file again. For whatever reason, I had to close Sparrow and reopen it and the transaction
35) Once you broadcast it, you can copy the transaction ID at the top, and put it into mempool dot space or wherever you like watching blockchain transactions
36) ensure that your transaction makes it on to the blockchain, it should show up in Sparrow's "transactions" tab for your wallet, and your done
That's pretty much it for testing
37) Keep your 3 xpubs on your microSD. Also save them onto your computer and another backup drive, usb, or wherever else. If someone were to find them, they could potentially see how much bitcoin you have, but they can not access the bitcoin, so your funds are safe. However, it's important that you have all 3 xpubs in case you need to recreate your wallet somewhere else (as was exercised in step 23)
38) perhaps you can find a couple of trustworthy family members and/or friends to each hold one of your mk4s, so you've eliminated robbery risk and "your home burns down" risk | r/bitcoin | I wanted to make a step by step guide to creating a good multisig wallet setup.

back in December my husband transferred ~$240k from bitcoin to BOA (yes, looking back, it was not ideal to move this amount in one transaction) to fund some expenses for our small business. The bank froze our account and we were told it was under review, rightfully so, we are business owners and understand protocols and security sensitive to money laundering. However, we are going on SIX MONTHS with zero help or any info from the bank. This is our main account and we have no access to any of our funds.
Similar threads we have read had accounts unfrozen at a 2-3 months tops. Has anyone had any similar experiences of their accounts being reviewed for this long and what did you do?
I cannot even explain the mental and physical stress this has put on us. Is there any further action we can take to expedite the process? | r/bitcoin | back in December my husband transferred ~$240k from bitcoin to BOA (yes, looking back, it was not ideal to move this amount in one transaction) to fund some expenses for our small business.
