What’s causing the dip?
With today’s low prices it could be a great day to pick up some bitcoin! What is your thoughts on why the dip?
🚨 The Leverage Trading Trap
Everyone wants to get rich faster. That's why leverage trading is so tempting. 10x your position = 10x your gains, right? Here's what actually happens: 📊 The Data: • 70-90% of leveraged traders lose money • Exchanges make BILLIONS from liquidations • In volatile markets, even 2x leverage can wipe you out Why? The market is designed to move on emotions. It drops to shake out longs, pumps to liquidate shorts, rinse and repeat. The only way for big players to accumulate Bitcoin in size... is for YOU to sell it to them. Leverage turns diamond hands into forced sellers. 🧮 A BETTER SYSTEM: The 200MA DIP Calculator Instead of leverage, use this to buy MORE when price is actually low: The Ladder: • 0-10% below 200MA → 1.5x your base DCA • 10-25% below 200MA → 2x your base DCA • 25%+ below 200MA → 3x your base DCA This scales your buys into fear — no liquidation risk. ----------------------------------------- 📊 Get the free calculator: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1b3RskRoSRlpUfyc3dUHj920ss42B5WNEX5vGtfmkS5I/edit?gid=0#gid=0 How to use it: Open the link File → Save as Google Sheets Enter your base DCA amount Check current BTC price vs 200MA It tells you how much to buy this week!

🥈 Silver vs ₿ Bitcoin: Don't Fall Into The Switching Trap
The Silver Opportunity ⚡ Silver can absolutely do well in the coming year. When fear rises and money gets debased, precious metals get a bid. I'm not here to trash silver – it has real utility and has protected wealth for thousands of years. But here's what you need to understand: Silver is not the end game. Bitcoin is. ⚠️ The Deadly Trap Most Investors Fall Into --------------------------------------------------------------------- Here's where people get wrecked. Jumping from one horse to another to chase short-term gains feels smart. You see silver pumping and think you're being tactical. You see Bitcoin dipping and think you're being disciplined. Until you fall off and get trampled. 🐎💥 Most people lose money not because they pick the wrong asset, but because they switch too often at exactly the worst time. They sell the bottom, chase the top, and end up with less than if they'd just stayed put. The wealth isn't made by those who jump around. It's made by those who ride the right horse all the way to the finish line. 💡 My Practical Take for 2025 ------------------------------------------------ If you want to put a small percentage of your emergency fund into silver? Fine. Do it smart: ✅ Physical bars only – no paper, no futures, no ETFs ✅ No leverage – own it outright ✅ No paper promises – if you can't hold it, you don't own it But make a rule right now: 📅 At the end of 2025, rotate back into Bitcoin. Promise yourself you will buy Bitcoin in November 2025 when it usually starts that slow grind higher and everyone is still asleep. Set a calendar reminder. Make it non-negotiable. Silver can be your trade. But don't let it become your prison. 🏆 Why Bitcoin Wins Long Term --------------------------------------------------- Let's get real about the fundamental difference: Silver's Limitations 🥈 - Requires third-party trust again - Storage costs and security risks - Verification requires expertise - Transport is expensive and risky - Settlement requires middlemen - You're back to trusting the same people who have lied time and time again

Bitcoin is quantum-safe!
If you follow the rules that wallets already enforce. There’s a lot of noise around “quantum computers breaking Bitcoin.” The reality is more boring (and more reassuring): 👉 Bitcoin remains quantum-safe if you use it correctly. Most risk only appears when users ignore best practices. The two big rules 👇 -------------------------------- 1️⃣ Never reuse addresses after you spend from them - Once an address is spent from, its public key is revealed on-chain - Reusing that same address again could expose it to future quantum attacks - Modern wallets already generate a fresh address every time — let them Rule: ✅ Receive → Spend → Never reuse that address again 2️⃣ Never give out your xpub (extended public key) unless you fully understand why - An xpub allows someone to: - If someone asks for it casually, that’s a red flag 🚩 Best practice: ----------------------- - Only use xpubs for dedicated payment systems - Create a separate wallet with: - Never mix it with your long-term savings wallet If you don’t know what an xpub is — that’s fine. Just know there’s no reason to share it unless you’re intentionally running a payment setup. The takeaway 🧠 --------------------------- Bitcoin doesn’t fail because of quantum computers. Bitcoin fails when users reuse addresses, overshare keys, or mix wallets improperly. Follow wallet defaults. Segregate roles. Don’t leak information. That’s it.
