Are we really that fucking early?

>>24508805
Yeah. If you hold 0.26 of a BTC you’re already in the top 1% of the world in terms of BTC

anon this is a retarded metric. any wallet software worth its salt will generate a new deposit address after each deposit to increase privacy. I have more than one bitcoin but I have no idea how many addresses its split up between.

People have multiple wallets so its actually even more extreme

Yes but each of those addresses will have the same public key associated with it.

Actually 1 BTC is in the top 2.09% of all wallets. You just have to hold long enough

>> No.24509923

>>24509704
I'm not a cryptography expert, but I am under the impression that the address is a one way hash of the pubkey, so your pubkey isn't exactly "public" to anyone but yourself

Gold is a shit investment, not good for gains. Only good for paying/bribing your way across a national border after a complete collapse of government and economy (ie, fall of USSR, venezuela, NK).

>> No.24510834

If I only have 0.6btc invested across a couple of promising alts, will I make 500k? I know I'm not going to "make it" this time around, I just want to take my first steps to making it.

its not up for debate, its math.
there are 46M millionaires in the world...there are 21M bitcoins.....
on average the average millionaire will be able to hold about .5btc each max

>> No.24510887

>>24510751
yeaaa but "collapses" aren't really on the menu anymore. just slow stagnating decline/decay like japan. that's basically where we are headed. no politician is willing to take the hardline and pull a paul volker. its not politically expedient to do shit like that anymore (if you don't know, he let interest rates go to ~20% to crash everything)

wouldn't they just find a way to outlaw/destroy/derail/dilute it somehow? just doesn't seem in the interest of the rich

Not intentionally but they do still happen. 2008 very nearly became such a collapse. Venezuela did collapse. Argentina's currency collapsed pretty hard. The USSR collapsing was completely unexpected.

Gold is basically just insurance, and now that starlink is taking off, bitcoin and other cryptos are even better than gold because border guards can't find your memorized seed phrase during a body search, but they'll sure has hell find a couple ounces of gold in your pockets. It still might be useful as a bribe for tech illiterate guards, but it's never going to make the holder rich.

The amount of coping to justify an stupid bets goes really a long way when it comes to cryptos.

You are buying the top, again. Just like January 2018.
