Oh yea definitely not making an excuse for him - he deserves some sort of repercussion for his constant meddling. I was just saying why I think he won't be touched for his crypto meddling.

Elon and Saylor teaming up will catapult BTC. Saylor apparently set the meeting up to talk to miners about green options.


yup. the ESG fud is a real dilemma for institutional adoption

Elon and Saylor hosting this meeting is bullish.

is this the catalyst we needed to continue the bull market ?

I don’t think we fully understand the scope of these things yet. I’m not sure it’ll matter near term but long term:

1. China banning (or severely hindering) mining operations

2. If Tesla does indeed create a crypto mining compound

This is really crazy to consider.

It would likely bring an end to the massive swing cycles, or at least severely curtail them. Tesla won’t need to sell as much to take profits or pay expenses. It would stabilize bitcoins chain in the medium (20+ years) term.

I hypothesize we will go through one more major cycle then Tesla announcing Bitcoin mining ops in 3 years will kick us off again.

I think so. Also think we are about to get more decentralized thanks to China

Yea I'm loving the China news, and the fact that we are actually seeing mining capacity in China start to come offline. Excellent news medium to long term.

a "bitcoin mining council" seems like a meme to me but it will be very effective for narrative purposes

"we got a council now bro"

Everyone has gotten very bullish very quickly. Certainly an interesting time.

I think the mid to longer term assessment in here that this is quite bullish is correct. I just wonder if people are gonna get too far out in front of their skis again turbo longing to make back lost trades. There’s still a lot of near term supply to work through.

Texas is the 2nd largest region for bitcoin mining allegedly. Of course those assets are owned by the CCP

For sure. I would assume the Elon floor is now a solid foundation. Funny enough, that’s probably more impactful news for alts than BTC. I’m sure there will still be a ton of near term volatility but if BTC crashed to 20 those things were headed to ~0 like 2018.

It’s funny you could see everyone pulling out their 2018 playbook rolling everything into BTC & USD even though it was BTC FUD bringing the market down. Buying alts yday was a great opportunity.

as long as bitcoin stays strong, alts will continue to outperform

everyone stays happy?

Altcoin collective is a discord channel. It's free but vip is where it's at for sure. It's pretty cheap and usually make it back on 1 trade alone.
