I presume you would be going through the buying and spending of that bitcoin just for the fun aspect and to contribute to the positive vibe and data, which of course wouldn't hurt your wallet? :cool:

Merely for the chance to take an additional bitcoin off the market.

Big institutions creating FUD so they can buy the dip. Don't get shaken out.

Because of the jump its bow my second biggest holding after btc. I think we've seen the big jump on it now but I think there's good gains still to be got and with staking it offers a decent return overall.

We’re up over 1000% in a year so it’s possible.

But so far institutions have been wrong at every call so thread carefully.

The media know nothing that isn’t already known on this thread.

Well the obvious differences is that 30 days is far more recent than a year.
And a 10% fall is far far more likely than a 90% fall.

Both of those are kinda obvious points. Not really sure what your point is.
And "stacking sats" at $5k is far far removed at 60k. Really not sure what the relevance of 5k a year ago is.

I couldn’t care what Elon does with his revenue tbh.

It speaks to increased adoption and an ever changing view towards what still remains a nascent currency. As regards your follow on post re. it being insignificant, many things may be / or appear to be insignificant in isolation. To me, its another brick in the wall.

Mellor

As I said, taking payments it a huge plus for BTC as a genuine currency.
But I don't think holding a fraction of sales revenue demonstrates any sort of new adoption.
The same way I wouldn't think it was damning if they converted BTC revenue to their primary currency either.

Yup, I understood what you said - there's no misunderstanding. I just feel that small steps in that direction - to me that represents progress. ...from the 'slowly at first, then all at once' school of thought.

I think you need to step out of the bubble you are in - there's no concerted effort from institutions to create FUD.

This article is the view of Amundi's CIO, and doesn't mean that Amundi have not got crypto-related internal activities progressing internally. Additionally, it should be noted that IBs that are undertaking 'significant activity' haven't all suddenly seen the light and bought in to crypto, much of this is to satisfy client demand. Desks will spring up when there is demand, and close just as quickly if it tails off, or regulatory requirements become a burden.

Absolutely valid. Wasn’t trying to suggest otherwise.
I’ve a more milestone approach to my thinking. Not better or worse. Just different.

When I give an opinion on potential drops it’s from my own technical analysis. It’s shunned in here but I enjoy it.

I’ve been buying Bitcoin for over 3 years and I like to draw lines.

We could hit 10k next week, who knows.

Talking about 5k, 10k doesn’t sound like technical analysis. Sounds like throwing out numbers. Comes across a bit salty tbh.

FWIW predicting a number you think it will hit is not the same as highlighting a range that it could hit.

Yes I’m incredibly salty for buying bitcoin weekly since very low 4 figures. I’ve provided my charts with TA in the past and got laughed at. I’m a hodler, I only do the TA for the fun of it.

You either argue with everybody in here for sh1ts & giggles or you genuinely don’t know what you’re talking about.

You don’t have to have a crack at someone every time they share an opinion. Let it go over your head man and you’ll be more relaxed.

We all like a bit of positive thinking but come on, delusional to say the least.
Theta 1,000,000,000 in circulation.
So you really believe it will hit a conservative $30 for 2021?
$30B would put it today at rank 7 in marketcap.
Porsche SE Market cap: $31.48 B
Toyota Industries Market cap: $30.50 B
Hapag-Lloyd Market cap: $30.30 B
ArcelorMittal Market cap: $29.89 B

$60/70B would have it at rank 3.
Adidas Market cap: $67.23 B
BMW Market cap: $63.45 B
Heineken Market cap: $61.69 B
So Theta is going to be worth the same or more than these household names?
Get some perspective, Amazon in 2014 paid $970 million in cash for Twitch.

BTC has a market cap of 1T without any promotion or marketing, there's a bit of perspective for you

We'll ignore that Google, Binance, Sony & Samsung all run Validator nodes, not to mention Sierra Ventures, Heuristic, GVR Fund & Venture all jumping on board

Theta quietly got into the top 10 recently and is still not on a lot of retail radars

I shall peer into my crystal ball
Theta will top out in two weeks
then a slow bleed back to $5-6 range
compare viewer and view count on theta.tv to twitch.tv

Anyone use mode (https://modeapp.com/) at all by any chance? Just came across it and looks like they're paying 5% interest on btc. I guess they're using that to bring in new users but seems decent. At first thought there must be something up with it but it's a listed company so looks pretty legit!

I haven’t came across that one before so no particular opinion (interesting to see a UK entity going into this though, but it seems too new for me to trust it with any large amount).

In case you might not be aware of all of them though, if you are looking for yield there are a number large enough and probably more established players offering something similar: Celsius Network, Crypto.com, BlockFi, Nexo.

Think you are way off the mark, theta will be top 6 this year. Massive money coming in, that's why mainnet 3.0 was pulled back.

Viewer count is irrelevant, it's about the network sharing effect. Edge computing. They will also be one the biggest NFT marketplaces

Read somewhere BlockFi have some type of connection to Greyscale, cant see them being associated with scammers, it would damage their reputation too much

Top 6 is $30+ per THETA???
Here is why i think it will bleed out slowly over the summer.
Telecom and ISP have close connections to politicians in the states, they give them a lot of donations.
These companies would see their network become congested by THETA being used to stream video from "home servers", they have invested billions of $$$ in their network, and expect to get a return, THETA wants to clog their network without paying?
A few words with politicians and THETA will be screwed, you can see that ISP limit bittorrent, they will do the same to THETA, they will strangle it before it gets up and running in a big way, THETA will end up paying for their own servers to stream video, so no different than Twitch/Youtube.
Nothing to stop Twitch/Youtube from rewarding their own version of TFuel

TLDR: ISP paid big money to build network, THETA want to use it without paying, ISP will strangle it and force THETA to run own servers, so no different to incumbent market leaders.
