an extraordinary stat, and that is the real brrrrrr that Another Saver ought to refer to.The United States M1 money supply have risen by 55%% since February this year. In other words, 35% of all the circulating US dollar bills have been released into the economy in just ten months.0 -

Well, it isn't for them but it is for everyone else.0 -
apologies if you found that to be rude, which wasn't my intention.. what it has to do with bitcoin is that 'the money printer goes brrrrr' relates to the enormous 'printing' of fiat currency this year. bitcoin is one of the obvious alternatives, arguably set to benefit, in fiat terms, as a result.Another_Saver said:What does this have to do with bitcoin?

and you're right of course patient. bitcoin is shaping up to be a life changing investment for some of us. there are some really interesting people involved too, and this strange year has provided more time to read/listen/think, which has been very helpful.1 -
I think the connection being made is that the creation of Bitcoin is occurring at a slower rate than that of fiat currency, while demand is also increasing for Bitcoin.Another_Saver said:

Please tell us more about how everyone who currently holds Bitcoin can cash out at a profit. Specifically, where the money (or money's worth) to fund these withdrawals would come from.[Deleted User] said:Of course, those who didn't wait crystallized a loss. Those who did, with Bitcoin at all time high now, can close their position at a profit - everyone who ever invested.
If everyone who ever invested closes their positions at a profit, that means new punters have handed over money for their Bitcoin. How are those new players going to cash out at a profit?

If everyone who ever invested closes their positions at a profit, that means new punters have handed over money for their Bitcoin. How are those new players going to cash out at a profit?Use google to find out where Bitcoin is being bought and sold if you really don't know. Tip:These are Bitcoin exchanges there. For example, Bitcoin daily volume on exchanges is $8,309,961,048 today (only spot volume, no CFDs etc). Bitcoin futures contracts volume is $2,692,665,813 today."If everyone who ever invested closes their positions at a profit, that means new punters have handed over money for their Bitcoin. How are those new players going to cash out at a profit?"Why would you assume everyone is going to sell their Bitcoin? Institutional money is buying right now, not selling. That's what fuelling price appreciation, among many other things. But anyway, you are free to buy or sell at any time, if you are late to the party and there is subsequent price crash, you may need to wait years like people who bought at the top in 2017-18 did, because price dropped. Bitcoin is volatile. Do not invest in it if you don't understand that.PS. Can you elaborate more on Bitcoin vs milk investment? That''s really interesting idea you mentioned there that maybe investment funds should be buying edible perishable assets instead of Bitcoin?
So far, this was not the case.1 -
