If this Bitcoin maximalist is forced to sell his stash -> Bitcoin's plunge spells trouble for the dot-com era entrepreneur who went all in
we will have to discuss 8k instead of 18k.

Just wondering how somebody who runs a company of that size and navigated it successfully through the dot-com bubble can be so naive .... .

1) Bitcoin failed as an alternative electronic currency, which was its originally intended purpose (see the original whitepaper).

2) After re-inventing itself, Bitcoin then failed as a store of value uncorrelated with traditional financial markets.

His belief was a common one among the crypto faithful ”” that bitcoin provides a store of value uncorrelated with traditional financial markets.

That's turned out to be a risky gamble, with digital currencies now moving in lockstep with stocks and other assets plunging amid fears of an aggressive interest rate hiking cycle from the Federal Reserve.

What will the Bitcoin cult promote as Bitcoin's next re-invented purpose? Perhaps a new poll is needed.

Now, this is really worrisome:
Cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase Global Inc.. said on Tuesday it would slash 18% of its workforce, or about 1,100 jobs, as part of efforts to rein in costs amid volatile market conditions.

In a filing on Tuesday, the company said it expects to incur about $40 million to $45 million in total restructuring expenses, substantially all related to employee severance and other termination benefits.

Coinbase last month reported a 35% slump in total revenue to $1.17 billion for the three months ended March 31, missing analyst expectations and weighing on investor sentiment.

Why would a crypto exchange slash its workforce by nearly twenty percent -- unless it was also participating in dangerous crypto trading? During an immense period of volatility, a crypto exchange (or any other trading house) should be rolling in cash from the increased trading volumes and the increased revenue from trading fees. In other words, volatile market conditions should add to the profitability of any trading exchange, not reduce it. Something does not smell right.

Some coins are inflationary, some are not. For example the centralized shitcoin known as USD is very much inflationary and the CAO managing it is run by psychos governed by a senile guy called Brandon. No one even knows their balance sheet rof/%

Ok, so you live entirely on crypto. The property you were selling still has the same price in btc?

Yes, that is why the USD has gained value over the past year, while Bitcoin has lost about 60% of its value. Nice logic.

Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts. The facts are very clear.

And as jjrapy already pointed out, all of your property is now worth 60% less when sold for Bitcoin. So, your argument in that regard is utterly nonsensical.

Yes, and an ounce of gold today is the same as an ounce of gold in 1850. It is just worth $2,000, instead of $20.

Yes and it is as useful today as it was in 1850: you can build pretty little things to try to please chicks. Usually with low rate of success if not coupled with more or less colored stones.

Yes, and a 1980 Chevrolet Suburban is still a 1980 Chevrolet Suburban today. It is just worth a bit less.

The 1980 suburban chevrolet might fetch a lot in an auction as a vintage car by the way if not now then definitely by 2050.

Bitcoin rate in USD changed 60% in a year, so what? Only good for me that I keep converting USD into btc at lower prices.
