I Listened to you in 2021 James, My 12 year relationship ended, I suddenly had all the time in the world to go down the Bitcoin Rabbit hole….fast forward 3 years, I’m now in a great spot financially, physically, mentally, and spiritually ❤ thanks mate.
James is awesome. He's not trying to overfill his bags by pumping garbage, he's actually truly passionate about helping us fill ours with quality assets allocated in a very precise way. I've basically gone deaf to all other crypto channels.
Giving perspective to millions, billions, and trillions: One million seconds is 11 days from now. One billion seconds is 31 years. One trillion seconds is 31,000 years!
James; I am 69, so I don't know all the ins and outs. Invested a few bucks in 2016 having no idea about Crypto. I have had some stolen. Some was delisted and I didn't know how to transfer it. Computer skills minimal. Bought DCA for 2 years-GONE. I have 1/4 left and now can use the ETF's, etc. I found you to be the most SINCERE person, who is easy to understand. My ability to do what you can do is about a .5 on a 1-10....but I am giving it my best shot. THANKS SO VERY MUCH
James, I like that you sandbag your projections. That more cautious approach is helpful, anything else that is "wrong" for under estimating is just gravy. Thanks for all you do, wishing happy investment outcomes for all.
UGH. Dropped to 66,000. What is that an 8,000 drop? When you live on SSA and get 2,000 a month watching a drop of 8,000 in a few days is.... GREAT! Wish I had some money to buy.
@@abesapien9930 With inflation, that SSA can't afford cat food. Not saying he should invest more than he can afford to lose, but he can't afford not to invest some in the large cap crypto.
@@abesapien9930yea if he was in dog water coins like ETC then i’d get it. But investing in BTC is the smartest thing u could do. In 15 years people will be saying they wished they invested in 2024
James you R the man; however projecting to 2040 excludes elderly in your audience. Also there’s a segment of younger listeners are the same. Ross Ferber pointed this out in a recent debate about Tesla being in his 50s 2040 isn’t relative. Peace ☮️
Chill, hold. You only lose if you sell. I’ve gone through a 60% drop and held and will continue with my iron grip until it’s the price I want. 🇦🇺 I listened to you and am thankful I did. ❤️
@@BrascobadboyI think it’s comical you’re a bear who needs emotional support so you’re prancing around the comments trying to be a negative nancy to all the bulls.
Hey there, James, love your videos, and I am a first time comment. I currently hold over two bitcoin and I plan on keeping them for ever but I wanted to see if you could do a video to help explain how someone let’s say in 10 or 15 years can leverage their bitcoin to create some cash flow for retirement, without having to sell any bitcoin. I’m just wondering to get your thoughts on whether you think banks in the future will subscribe to lending on bitcoin to a house?
Why the new mini-gbtc fund. Just lower your rate to 0.2% and the bleed stops. Wouldn't they want 0.2% of something instead of 1.5% of nothing? I don't get it.
The room would be about 4’ wide x 6’ long x 8’ tall with $500 million dollars in $100 bills. Not really that big, but put in $1 bills it would be 49’ x 49’ x 8’ tall 😮
Hi James, - been watching pretty much every vid isnce Jan 2022. I have filled up my main bags. From 2024 i've been just buying only smaller coins. Plan is to sell everything besides BTC sometime between next 9-18 months. Opinions?
Bitcoin as a global asset. James, I love your global perspective. To me that’s why you have people from all over the world watching. It would be fun to do an adoption video by continent.
Can you comment on some of the Grayscale ETFs based on alts? LTCN, GSOL, BCHG, GXLM. They’ve extremely volatile but outperformed the underlying assets during the last bull cycle.
For BTC to hit nearly 5 million per coin, the total market cap of BTC would have to be near 100 trillion dollars. If that ever happens, USD will be completely worthless 🙄
James, in reference to GBTC etf fee of 1.5%. Their holdings would have to decrease to 100,000 btc before they would be net loser(619,000/6) or 1.50/0.25=6. Is the math correct?
19:30 three months later it's early July2024 and btc was bouncing around 61-63k so yeah - a small bear was in. Still wasn't enough for me to buy a btc but I'm happy that i was able to something (even if most of my buy between 62 & 64k)
before i start the video, i have a question that probably has already been answered in the bitcoin space. after bitcoin becomes the standard monetary system, after it replaces the US dollar, where will the intrinsic, underlying value of bitcoin derive from? i mean, will prices be in USD or the local currency, but will simply be exchanged in bitcoin? or will there be an standard issuance that bitcoin has a base value of xx.xx and divided into sats?
not necessarily speaking of the asset itself, but wouldn't that make its value centralized? thus, being able to be manipulated by the same issuance of standard? I'm not asking to be counter intitutive, I'm trying to understand how bitcoin will change the current monetary system. this is something that hasn't been done before, so i'm trying to understand how the future world will work. @@fred475
What’s crazy is the trajectory/slope of this pre-halving is similar to that of the prior post halving. If we keep this up post halving it’s going up in a straight line.
Is it true that the higher the bitcoin price gets shallower the whole Bexxar versus when it’s a lot cheaper I can go down on it pullbacks a lot more than when it’s very high in price
I never understood staking... when an asset moves up or down 300% in a year, then what good is an extra 5%? kinda meaningess, unless youre a true believer holding for long term...and even then, its more profitable to trade and accumulate more.
Depends on if you can time the market. What many people do is cash in enough to their their return of capital, could be 1x or more, plus pay taxes and let the rest ride.
Long time patreon member who also follows on x; patreon has significantly more information including regular buy alerts. James is also pretty active in the patreon. Hope that helps.

Don't worry. It's forming a positive divergence on the hourly chart. If this is still a bull market, this shakeout will go on for a couple more days.
Keep some powder dry.
You should not be in crypto if you are living off of SSA.

Just wanted to say thanks! I was on fence with jupiter and then saw your video recently and it 3x for me. Took my initial out. Great content!!
Amazing stats. Nothing goes straight up. But with these inflows I wonder who is selling or getting wrecked.
Something you said prompted a question... How many shares of ETF = 1 BTC?
1756 shares of IBIT equals 1 BTC
Thanks, JImmy. Buying btc on a dip is like a favor from the gods.

Why the new mini-gbtc fund. Just lower your rate to 0.2% and the bleed stops. Wouldn't they want 0.2% of something instead of 1.5% of nothing? I don't get it.
What happens if investors want to convert those notes? Do they become company stocks? Does that dilute the current stocks?

How far do you think microstrategy will go?
Thank you for your awesome videos.
Brilliant as always, James! Thank you for all that you do!
What made bitcoin bitcoin crash in 2021 and hover around a low price the last 3 yrs? Any good theories?
For BTC to hit nearly 5 million per coin, the total market cap of BTC would have to be near 100 trillion dollars. If that ever happens, USD will be completely worthless 🙄
There are over 900 trillion dollars out there. If that ever happens, then btc will devalue gold, real estate, bonds, etc

How about getting to 75k first?

Bitcoin: $4.6M by 2040
Loaf of bread: $2.5K by 2040.

Is it better to own Bitcoin or invest the same money into micro strategy/ETF’s?
Premium content as always…Thanks James and IA team!
What is the 2025 and 2030 figures according to that chart?
JUP and PYTH to the moon last night!!!
As the bitcoin price gets higher, does that mean the pool backs will be more shallow then when bitcoin was cheaper?
Thx James
You didn’t even have a RUclips channel when Saylor started buying? Wow, I thought you were here for years! Soo intelligent.
Thanks for all your hard work and research and your team day in and day out ❤

why doesnt GBTC just lower their fees to be in-line with others?
we need a stronger pull back
52k is our level. Mark my words. If we get the big pullback. That’s ur number to shove all in
MSTR Prediction by 2040?
What’s crazy is the trajectory/slope of this pre-halving is similar to that of the prior post halving. If we keep this up post halving it’s going up in a straight line.
So you are saying that by 2040 Bitcoin will have the same market capitalisation as the current entire global economy?
Camel Finance also made the same prediction already. Very exciting indeed
I wonder where the price will go if greyscale stops selling or runs out of BTC.
Great work James!
Is it true that the higher the bitcoin price gets shallower the whole Bexxar versus when it’s a lot cheaper I can go down on it pullbacks a lot more than when it’s very high in price
Does every video have a typo?
Stay humble, take a deep breath and keep stacking
James could you mention satoshi's a little more, $72000 BTC scares a lot of people.
1500 sats per dollar.
Thank you, sir.
Thanks
MSTR no fee
nice little leverage
I still dont understand how MSTR can net you MORE profits than bitcoin itself if all theyre doing is buying bitcoin....that worries me.
@@Scorch428because as they borrow to buy more, mstr owns more. Thus as an owner of mstr u own more bitcoin.
@Scorch428 it's exposing the endless fiat printer

Fiat: "Melting Icecubes" YES!
