A lot of newfags around here recently, so here's a tip before it's too late. You should have at least 1 BTC in your portfolio before you are priced out. Either buy 1 BTC before buying alts, or stack sats with your alt profits.
When the bullrun reaches the mania phase, which coin do you think normies will be rushing to buy? Hint: not your altcoins.

i'm still not convinced that if you diversify into alts properly with good risk assessment and all it would not under perform a bitcoin only portfolio.

some alts in some periods will perform better but the ones that invest into them are not geniuses just got lucky.

Sadly, this post is a bearish signal for bitcoin. There is truth to this though. We all have to remember that BTC is, like it or not, the gateway into alts. More than 90% of alt purchases are initially made through fiat>BTC>Alts. When BTC goes on its inevitable spree again, BTC will cannibalize everything else on the crypto market. That said, no matter if you’re a boomer millionaire or an incel pleb, you will be sorry for not having at least a whole bitcoin in the near future.

There is a reason we don't ship gold bars back and forth when buying stuff even under the gold standard.
The same applies to BTC. Its physical limitations do not matter because we'll find proxies to trade it without having to take physical (or rather digital) delivery.

You are saying that like it's a certainty. Every crypto is more risky than bitcoin. Good luck though, I hope everyone makes it, but I always advise people to have at least a healthy stack of bitcoin to save their portfolio in case all their shitcoins end up worthless.

keep on coinbase if it's less than a few thousand (coinbase is big enough if they get hacked they'll eventually try and repay you but it's not 100% certain- they only legally ensure USD *cash* (not crypto and not even their own USDC, but C A S H)
anything beyond that get veracrypt, make a 2 partition system (one visible and one hidden)
in the visible partion put porn or tax returns
in the hidden portion put your seed phrases

bitcoin is definitely a currency not money or cash
but in some retarded definitions the relationship between these is ambiguous

for a more technical well rounded definition:
>cash is money in physical/untraceable form
>money is a currency that is legal tender
>currency is a unit of account and a medium of exchange
>medium of exchange must be portable and durable
>unit of account must be fungible and divisible

i think fungible doesn't mean that all coins are completely interchangeable and noone can tell the difference. it just means that 1 btc = 1 btc even if it's 4x 0.25 btc utxo.

some utxos are "tainted" and thus are not fungible with untainted utxos which is akin to serial numbers on banknotes known to be stolen. that doesn't mean all the rest of the banknotes not involved in crime not being fungible with each other.

i have mixed feelings about all this, because who doesn't want privacy? but i like that people who steal funds or commit extortion/fraud can't spend their btc on face value or at all. which on the other hand makes tumblers and coinjoin a russian roulette i would not play because they can be a poisoned well.

mike maloney defined them differently tho
he calls electronic and physical cash currency and gold money. totally retarded. money (what people call money and use as money) is subjective to legislation (legal tender) currency is a technical term (inherent properties) not subject to legislation which was proven by crpytocurrencies btw.

that i think makes sense
and i sort of do like how some are traceable, since you can prevent fraud and theft of coins in that way (or track down the criminals)
i kinda like how it's pseudoanonymous though, with me thinking BTC starting out couldn't be like a monero where the number of coins is unknown because who the fuck would trust some code saying "yeah there's totally only X number of them trust me"
i've got a bigger stack of bitcoin because i think it's got more value, but i do hold some monero because i think the tech is interesting and it is nice to have a privacy option

i also didn't think about the mixer but you're very right about it being a possible poisoned well

yeah i think it's probably semantics
ask any "normal" person and all 3 terms are interchangeable (to them it's just "what you spend to get something else")
i haven't watched that video in a long time but i remember parts and i think i agreed with most of it, i think it's mainly the difference between "government issued trust *currency*" vs "actual historical *money* (that has global recognition can't be fucked with by outsiders)

yeah gold as money made a lot more sense to be used when a currency was BACKED with gold, but no one actually *traded* in gold- it was all in treasury notes and silver coins
much easier to transport, divisible, could store many ounces of gold with one paper note, etc
things got fucky when the paper no longer was backed by gold though, and i think that's what has led us to where we are now- everything fiat, all over leveraged with paper debt
i wonder how it's going to play out
