true and prolly in a month, but the point remains, if you are buying BTC it should eb for long term gains. BTC is not really for day trading anyways. People freak over a 10% dip. most alt coins will run 20-35% in the matter of hours and then return close to resistance.

Did you ever feel you got into #BTC or #BNB too late? And wanted in a bit earlier?

Well, a dip gives you that chance.

If you will feel that way again later, you know this is the moment to blame ... yourself.

Not financial advice.

The Fedcoin sounds like a really stupid idea.

The principle problem with fiat isn’t that it isn’t digital enough. It’s that the centralized authorities are able to devalue it at will. Fedcoin doesn’t address the concern of scarcity.

Agree, will accelerate adoption. I can't believe Americans are still so used to paying with credit cards. I try to use digital payment anywhere I can.

Restaurants and bars need the digital payment at the table to be more common.

which is another reason it’s a much worse alternative to standard cryptos

I don’t know many crypto nerds that are like “privacy? Who needs it”

I think the Fed doesn’t really get why people are moving to crypto to begin with

I've always thought this would be their next move.. As more and more people realize the positives of blockchain, they'll swoop in with a "best of both worlds" solution -- the digital dollar.

It's blockchain, so that's good! and it won't drop 30% in value in 8 hours! so that's good too!

what is the problem with just using a USD stablecoin if volatility scares you?


Fedcoin has no viable use cases from where I sit

right but this gives normies access to "crypto" that they wouldn't have had otherwise, which just naturally increases adoption

a lot of people are just scared of digital currency for whatever reason

Why? FedCoin will be stable, cheap to use, with fully transparent and audit friendly transaction histories.

It's like Bitcoin but a real use case and infinitely more horrifying. Sounds like a treasury/IRS dream project.
