Bottoms are defined by lack of interest, a 2024/2025 bullrun and +$100k is very possible

Google search for crypto hit their low. People lost interest in this. Mini bullrun with meme coins are over. But now institutions start to invest in crypto (*see*: Blackrock and Bitcoin ETF). Despite the SEC sueing multiple cryptos at once, regulatory clarity will be there soon. Institutions are the big players, they have their lobby and politicians will be influenced by them. They want to enter crypto, they will be soon in crypto. So what can we shrimps learn from this? Be faster than them, invest now in crypto while the majority of people lost interest in it. The prices now are very cheap and I have to admit that they can still even become cheaper (euphemism for prices to go down). But if you invest now, you can be wealthy later! Grow a seed and you can harvest the fruit, becoming millionaire overnight doesn't work. 2024 Q4 will be BTC halving event, a bullrun always occured after this event. Prepare for this, invest in your future wealth.

Best way to truly own your keys?

Is there any way to own your keys and make transfers entirely yourself? Asking this after the Ledger fiasco where they proved that they and any bad actors with enough skill can get access to your seed. For the sake of this post, I'd say hardware wallets are a no go, even if open source *unless* you can implement it yourself and verify that the code is run as written. Not sure I'd even trust a physical device at that point unless it was a generic device (like a Raspberry Pi or something) and not the device sent to me by them. Also assume that I'm willing to do whatever amount of legwork it takes: making my own app, doing calculations, etc. I can store the seed, but is it feasible to generate keys and transfer coins entirely manually and offline? TIA!

Debate with my coworker. Coworker thinks that US government can shut down BTC. How to refute?

Can the most powerful governments in the world get together to take down BTC? Via shutting down the power grids and shutting down the internet? The main argument went back to: in the end, if the governments wants to shut it down, they can. Do the governments even have incentive to shut it down or do they have incentive to join the protocol? How do I refute? Because I know this is not true because bitcoin is decentralized code that no one can change without just creating another fork. But I don't know how to combat the power grid and the internet point.

Why do certain cryptos all drop simultaneously at a certain time of the day...?

Fairly new to crypto and just getting my bearings with this fascinating landscape. Trying to recognise the patterns over the dayd and nights and I've noticed more than a few times that trades all seem to drop simultaneously at the same time during the day and night. It happened just now at 5pm across the board and I've seen it at midnight a lot for various coins. What is the reason for this? Is it a deliberate sell-off by holders or a result of general activity across the world or maybe something else? Maybe multiple factors at play? Curious to know. Many thanks!

I’m laughing my ass off.

Ledger wouldn't have killed their business right before their IPO if they wouldn't have been forced to do it.

Hanlon's razor tells us "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity. " At the same time never attribute to stupidity what is more likely hidden government enforcement. Think about gag orders. Funny that governments are all about secrecy themselves but privacy and controlling ones own hard earned money is "criminalized". Think about it: After the fall of FTX many people withdrew coins worth billions of USD from CEX. And as Ledger had a market share of 40 to 50% of all hardware wallets sold at that time you can imagine that AUM in Ledger devices grew in a gigantic way. Obviously that would have meant too much money (power) out of the control of governments hence why we see this "stupid" behavior from Ledger executives. Want to confirm /u/murzika /u/btchip ?

best way to get donations or tips with crypto?

What is the best way to get donations/ tips from people with crypto? I know there are things like chaintip.

I do day trading to fund it now, but want to start ap nonprofit to help cascades of people forced into nomad living. I think I could make ap positive message around crypto if I do this right Patreon is meh....
