Bitcoin Cash PMv3 Proposal & Discussion Starting from where my previous post ended ("Bitcoin Cash Separates Money And State"), it was made clear that a breakthrough technology like Bitcoin, one that appears only once every 50-100 years, was required to be tamed by the establishment. https://read.cash/@Pantera/bitcoin-cash-separates-money-and-state-17cc59d2 The pioneering spirit of Satoshi Nakamoto survived within the Bitcoin Cash ecosystem, and the BCH community overcame all…

I've decided to keep using reddit but just the r/btc and r/bitcoincash subreddits. I find no value in the rest which are just aggressive and imature people posting. These two subreddits deserve our participation. I'm not going to enter into dialogue with trolls commenting, but upvoting other good posts published in these two communities.

Bull Run Unaffected When charting, drawing random lines does not represent anything. I usually have the references of EMA lines, MACD (but not so often), occasionally RSI, and a few more indicators and oscillators to find some good trading opportunities. Mostly using the daily or weekly scale. We need to know what each indicator represents, otherwise, we won't use them correctly. I don't look for any patterns like wedges, head and shoulders, cup and handles, elephants,…

I created a Minds account and written an introductory post. I don't know a lot about this platform but it looks like a monetized twitter. https://www.minds.com/pantera99/ I will be reposting read.cash articles and try to use it to promote read and noise.cash. It needs to connect to metamask and has monetization through tips. I will look more into this and what kind of blockchain the native token is using.

Google Will Soon Allow Crypto Ads Again In my previous post: **"****Bull Run Unaffected****"** I explained what I see in the charts for the Crypto market for the next few months. https://read.cash/@Pantera/bull-run-unaffected-d978b895 The short term is very risky though, and while odds may be favorable, some events can turn the market in bearish sentiment and new investments to back down. There are also rumors or news that may be so important that change the course of the…

Bridging The Crypto Knowledge Gap There is a huge gap between developers, marketers, content creators, and users/investors when considering our knowledge of Cryptocurrency. Developers speak their language, while marketers like crypto influencers, usually have low knowledge about the technology and just select fancy words and create new catchphrases that can be entirely outside of the scope of cryptocurrency. Each person is specialized in one field, and usually totally…

Novogratz Admits: BTC Is NOT GOOD for Payments Mike Novogratz is one of the most prominent bulls for many years. An ex Goldman Sachs executive, he is now the co-founder and Ceo of Galaxy Digital Investments. Galaxy Digital invests in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency assets and has recently acquired a crypto startup investing platform, "BitGo" for $1,2 billion. In a recent discussion on cryptocurrencies on the podcast series "Exchanges at Goldman Sachs", Novogratz explained…

I'm removing Reddit completely and deleting the account there. The most unproductive time I've ever had. Besides having to deal with trolls you also have to deal with devs that have as purpose to waste everyone's time. Why are people using this, I can't seem to understand. You can't block trolls that spam your posts with irrelevant comments, and not only that devs have absolute control of your post. It should be like read.cash, either accepted or rejected and that's fine.…

Top-3 Crypto Ponzi Schemes After my previous article "Satoshi Pyramid is a SCAM" I was expected retaliative and diminishing comments from those involved with Satoshi Pyramid. https://read.cash/@Pantera/satoshi-pyramid-is-a-scam-9c931af0 It was the same with the Bitconnect shills back in 2017. Many of us tried to put sense to every naive investor that had no idea this scam was stealing their money. I saved many by educating them online and even a colleague of mine who still…

Bitcoin's Perfect Symmetry In Replacing Fiat This article is describing deflation and its consequences while also exploring Bitcoin’s scarcity and the utilization of BCH as a replacement to fiat. As Adam Smith puts it in the “Wealth of Nation”, an invisible hand is pushing prices in a free market. Lending creates bubbles and bubbles reach a tipping point and burst. Depending on the effect of the bubble, it can create spiral events that will lead to a recession and deflation.…

The Arrow (BTC fees) In The Knee - Where The Truth Lies Well, I wasn't that much of a Bitcoiner back in 2017 and 2018 or ever. However, getting in at a point when I thought I was already too late, I just hoped that Bitcoin will keep rising and my bags will not be so heavy. I wasn't part of any debate and didn't have enough time back then for research, so I went with the flow. Which was to follow the BTC maximalism agenda that was sending many mixed messages. The narrative…

The Many Errors of CZ_Binance Changpeng Zhao (a.k.a. @cz_binance) is the CEO of Binance exchange as everyone already knows. Sometimes he seems to be disconnected from the core of what cryptocurrencies represent. https://twitter.com/cz_binance The centralization of power the crypto industry provides to some people can often have negative consequences. This post is not about the financial shenanigans of Binance. It is how I see some of the recent crypto-entrepreneurs that try…

FUD - How to Spot and Defeat It **FUD!** This is how every article with news that is not bullish is treated by the crypto community. Comments on any negative crypto news are like this: "It is obvious the author sold his Crypto and wants to buy again lower" "The author is playing the game of the whales" "This is FUD…pretend it doesn’t exist" It is all just lies and deceiving news paid by bears and enemies of Crypto, am I right? **WRONG**. Some reporters are dishonest, but you…

Tether ($USDT): An Accident Waiting To Happen **Tether.** The father of stablecoins. Having reached an astonishing 62 Billion Dollar market cap is currently sitting in third place of the cryptocurrency market cap indexes, right below BTC and Ethereum. Tether has been accused of manipulating the market in the previous bull run too. Since it was created it was considered shady, non transparent and a tool used to manipulate the market. *A typical Saturday 1 billion USDT mint.*…

How They Learn to Stop Worrying and Love the Banks There are about a hundred people on Twitter that are negatively discussing Crypto. All of them understand Bitcoin way more than 99% of Bitcoiners and frankly, they would love an efficient decentralized digital currency that works as everyone understands the importance of digital currencies in commerce and the concept of decentralized money. BTC and Tether are the main reasons that attract criticism and stall innovation in…

David Gerard Sheds Light Behind El Salvador and the BTC (Strike) Deal It feels that Crypto is losing steam and popularity again. It wasn't looking good with Dog coins and memes rising into extreme prices and the market was begging for a correction. The BTC news from El Salvador once again was met with excitement from the BTC community, however, once again they didn't look beyond the titles. It seems that social media is just full of bots, NPCs that are expected to react by…

The Rise and Rise of Cryptocurrencies Bitcoin as an idea that developed in a working product, it quickly became a subject of speculation. Some very intelligent people discovered Bitcoin very early and had the guts to invest in it at a very low price between 2009-2012. Moreover, a few tech-savvy programmers and enthusiasts were mining Bitcoin with their CPUs in the early days, before the ASIC mining hardware took over. They were investing their electricity bill in Bitcoin. Of…

The Story of Ross Ulbricht and the Silk Road When we first learn about Bitcoin we also encounter the dark side of cryptocurrencies. The use of Crypto for illegal activities. The first monetary use of Bitcoin as a medium of exchange was the 10,000 BTC paid for a pizza by early Bitcoin developer Laszlo Hanyecz. **Those in Bitcoin very early (2009-2012) were the real visionaries.** A point was made that Bitcoin could be used as cash and someone had to make the start. Bitcoin…

Bitcoin Cash Animal Rescue - Proof of Hope Bitcoin Cash is probably the only cryptocurrency right now that helps people around the world. It gives financial access to the modern economy not just to the citizens of western countries, but to every forgotten part of the world. Citizens of countries that have to deal with problematic economies and failing national currencies are entering the cryptocurrency world and finding hope in Bitcoin Cash. Moreover, BCH initiatives appear…

Why Stablecoins Will Not Be Able To Maintain the Peg Stablecoins are pegged to another currency. Usually, this is the dollar. In the crypto market, we currently have $100 Billion in stablecoins, close to reaching 10% of the entire industry market cap. *All pegged exchange rate arrangements are subject to predicaments that cast doubt in the ability of the policy makers to maintain the peg.* - Harris Dellas (professor at University of Bern) - Source (2002)…

Odds matter? I don't write articles to please anyone. I also don't write articles to promote something I don't believe in. And I won't ever write in favor of an idea that is wrong, just to please those that believe in it. I will write against it and back my arguments with Facts. I write about topics mostly concerning the crypto verse and all come from deep research. I don't envision what might have happened and while I always read all opinions it is often infuriating having…

I voluntarily not enjoying trolls. When I spot one I block it. This is the end of it. Being butthurt because I don't have time to debate nonsense is already explained in my previous post.

In my post: Bitcoin's Perfect Symmetry In Replacing Fiat (link: https://read.cash/@Pantera/bitcoins-perfect-symmetry-in-replacing-fiat-5b10bd39), I made a horrible mistake. I provided the US M1 supply chart and didn't research the reason for the extreme rise of money M1. This kind of rise is impossible in an economy like the US and only resembles charts of failing economies that quickly printed 3-4 times more than the money in circulation. The real reason for the huge…

Young Investors Should Shift Focus to Bitcoin Cash Right before the peak in May, a report appeared about Gen Z and its investment habits. Of course, when younger, everyone tends to follow the hype and investing knowledge is very weak. The result is losses as most investors will be buying the top of the hype of these assets. The report claims that almost 25% of Generation Z in the US had invested in meme coins like Doge. (Source)…

Read Cash is Not Just About Bitcoin Before I begin with this post, I feel the need to thank @MarcDeMesel once again for his support all this time and the latest tips. He always tips generously many writers in Read Cash for their content contributions and he's been doing it for a very long time. There is a reason for this post though, and it is not just about celebrating the latest tips for my articles, which I am always very grateful for. Read.Cash is a platform that rewards…

R.I.P. John McAfee - You Will Always Live in Our Hearts After many years of having lived in different locations, having changed occupations and cities, I am currently back at the apartment I've grown up in. Often, I am having flashbacks of both good and bad times from my childhood and teen years. I still remember myself as a little kid, should have been like 7 or 8 years old, sitting in front of my first computer. While in my childhood other kids were buying Nintendo…

Many thanks to @MarcDeMesel once again for the generous $300 tip. I hope my article on John McAfee did justice. I didn't hide anything and tried to avoid writing with feelings which it was obvious I had about this man. Given all that is happening in the world right now, and the many bitter and uneducated comments I've read about McAfee, I felt there was a need for a post that would set things straight. Thanks to all that read my post it is in the link below in case you…

Unsolved Mysteries And Strange Stories Each article, tells a story. We are the storyteller and push our brain to function and find the correct approach. We can start without having a subject and we find it on the way. Usually, we don't plan anything. And often we may not have anything to write about. This is called the "writer's block". Wikipedia explains it as "**a creative slowdown**". We may start writing but not have the same energy or enthusiasm as with our previous…

Shift Your Mindset To The Long Run Without a doubt, this market is the most volatile out of everything else. Yet, chances are no matter when you invest, even an 80% losing investment will become profitable with enough patience.

One lesson I've learned after a while was that my original strategy was better than any other…

Bitworkerss.Cash Will be a Blast ! While it is still in a very early stage, I have a very good feeling about the new project by CryptoMax: "Bitworkerss!". https://bitworkerss.cash/ It was just a few days ago he announced his idea and just yesterday he had the website almost ready! CryptoMAX has some amazing ideas! A good idea is just around 10% of the full development of a finished product. It takes passion to proceed with turning an idea into action. I applaud @CryptoMax…

The Pitfalls of Deception There is not a lot to discuss when someone is justifying cheating. If someone can't understand what is cheating and the effects of their actions then anything we write about is insignificant. It is a hopeless cause. One may find millions of excuses to keep their cheating habits but it will all be about lying to themselves. Once cheating gets exposed cheaters will have to face the consequences of their actions. Even if you get away you will still not…
