Regards to the country game theory...
Russia looks likely to be regulating Bitcoin mining (weren't they banning it a few days ago
) - Putin is backing this.
Matt Hancock stood up in the commons yesterday calling for the UK to be the home of Fintech and Cryptocurrency, this seemed well received.
If Bitcoin is a Ponzi scheme then you have to admit its a damn good one!1 -

Hey kid, you were the one saying a few months ago, that BTC would go to US$100,000 within a few months.Scottex99 said:
I wish I could troll this goodI’m no expert, but I know a thing or two. I also know your money is better off in the market than in a bank. Go SHIB!
Are you sure that no-one believed you? Because the people that made money, made it off the back of people who bought based on that nonsense you peddled.
So if no-one believed you, then good...7.25 kWp PV system (4.1kW WSW & 3.15kW ENE), Solis inverter, myenergi eddi & harvi for energy diversion to immersion heater. myenergi hub for Virtual Power Plant demand-side response trial.0 -

I've said 20 times already. For me, the fundamentals are unchanged.
Government backed fiat money is unsound. We cant just turn on the money printers every time we need the bail out the banks, or pay furlough or build statues of politicians or whatever it is. And now the inflation that's caused (that they said was transitory) has to be tackled by rate hikes which makes number go down. How have your equities performed the last 2 weeks?
Granted, we don't have that dislocation yet where money flows out of bond, stocks and into gold/BTC. But I think it will come.
It's going to $100k for these reasons, imo.
And I'll be buying BTC and ETH at every opportunity. Below, above and at these prices. As i've said I'll come and @ you when we get there, no probs at all

... two weeks, you say, TWO WEEKS? Well, gratifyingly, I think in the last two weeks my equities have stopped constantly going up like they did for the last few years and (on average) the last few decades. Worryingly, my equities only dipped a little in the last two weeks. Was something more dramatic supposed to happen?7.25 kWp PV system (4.1kW WSW & 3.15kW ENE), Solis inverter, myenergi eddi & harvi for energy diversion to immersion heater. myenergi hub for Virtual Power Plant demand-side response trial.1 -

What could go wrong?2

When the Bitcoin opponents are starting to come across more persistent and fanatical than the pro side, I take that as a sign that Bitcoin has won.1
