Always gets quiet around the #bitcoin halving. I remember the first in 2012, Nov 28th reduced the first block reward from 50 to 25. Here is a pic from that day. We are all smiles secretly we weren’t sure if this first halving would work. Can you guess the early bitcoiners?

I'm just gonna say it. I think the "FacebookCoin" is an attempt by big tech, banks and credit card companies to lure people away from #Bitcoin into their "better, easier, crypto", which is nothing more than a fiat coin being masqueraded as crypto. Millions will be fooled.

It’s easy to be a “crypto expert” with “private trading groups” when everything is rising. Talk to the people we’re around in 2011, or even 2014, they will tell you whatsup. Most of these “experts” showed up less than a year ago.

Honestly the best way to hold #bitcoin forever is to get 5 to 10 BTC and keep it in the cold storage that even you can’t access. I truly think that 5 to 10 Bitcoin will be super life-changing money in 20 years from now. Everything else just spend and use as you want
