Bitcoin posted its largest daily percentage gain in more than three years overnight, after Tesla made the announcement in its 2020 annual report. Bitcoin added as much as 2.5% to hit a record high of $47,565.86 on Tuesday and has gained 61% for the year so far. Ethereum hit a record of $1,784.

ThailandRyan Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Pumped upwards by Elon Musk and Tesla purchasing 1.5 billion worth of BTC, and then saying you can and will be able to buy a car from them using the BTC. Another market has now been made. Ethereum is still under valued, but when they start to burn Ethereum with the new upgrade ETH should also climb higher. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You obviously do not understand the world of Crypto Currency. It is slowly becoming more widely used in all aspects of daily business and finance. Ethereum, is the backbone of many crypto currencies that are used for smart contracts and in the banking world. Unfortunately all markets even stocks are susceptible for pump and dump. Why do you think Martha Stewart went to jail, however Nancy Pelosi who did something similar is still among the un-imprisoned.

People don't seem to realise that it was easy to pick up 100's or more Bitcoin 8 or 9 years ago, very easy and very cheap compared to now although it didn't seem so cheap at the time when you're sending your money to an exchange or OTC trader. It was also possible to make massive amounts of Bitcoin based on playing the 'alt markets' if you were there at the right times - I was doing this back in 2013 and bought my first Bitcoin in 20212. I never did bother mining it, the price was around $12 each at the time. I've made many withdrawals over the years (far more than I ever bought in with) which could have resulted in me having multiple millions more USD worth of Bitcoin today had I held on to them but that's life, I decided to sell some at certain points, no big deal. The uninformed will look at this as some kind of fantasy as you can see from the above post but that's far from the truth, it was relatively common back then and I was aware of others meddling with crypto long ago. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you know that most people lose "access" to their bitcoins because they can't remember passwords or forget where they put their cold storage?

Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies used to rely on a secure wallet with an encryption algorithm, but that is no longer the normal with exchanges such as Coinbase, Coinbase PRO, BitFinex, and a multitude of others. You can if you want buy your crypto's and create your own wallet called cold storage, for which you will need the lengthy algorithm, but for most folks the exchanges are secure and all you need is a login and password to complete your trades or sales. The exchanges that have their own platforms are slowly moving to complete legitimacy with registering with the SEC. Coinbase in fact has registered to start selling itself on the stock market with an IPO for which you can buy the company itself. Coinbase Announces Intention To Go Public With Direct Listing | Nasdaq I really think you are confused, as cryptocurrencies are the wave of not only the now but the future, and are used for more than gaming as you believe. Smart contracts are secure and are based upon the Ethereum blockchain. Blockchain technology is now very secure and creates transactions that are fast, trackable and irreversible each time a contract or purchase is made. I think you need to do some research. You seem to be a hater of technology and have no idea of what you are talking about. It is ok to be behind the power curve, but you need to get yourself up to speed to understand where banking is heading. Fiat currency will exist side by side with cryptocurrencies but eventually one day we will enter an entirely digital currency age, just like China is currently heading into.

Yes, very true. However, it regards a lower value. You can look when bitcoin went from around 100 to a 1000 in one year. Ok you have one exception. That is when it went from about 1 100 to 20 000 in only 8-9 month. That is something that have never happened with any type of currency in history, though. So, the result is still far fetched that it will reach 100k this year. Maybe in 2-4 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnabe Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 XRP is total thrash and the antithesis to what crypto should be. A crypto currency that is centrally controlled by a private entity, is not used for anything except speculation (the others are at least used in black markets), and seems to only be pumped and dumped for no reason except telegram pump and dumps. If you want to dabble in <deleted>coins, at least do it in community ones that actually share some values with Bitcoin. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No use to go deeper, when you seem to be totally unaware of how crypto currencies move and react during time. What also can be seen in a very clear line through all of them. However, that is over course for you. ???? Let´s just say that Tron, Binance, Ethereum and Litecoin so on forever.... have one thing in common.
