James, after following you for the last 2-3 years and absorbing some of your investing practices, I held my breath and bought a single MSTR Call Option contract (exp. 1/2025) last November. The strike price was $200 at the time and at $7,500 the contract was pricier than I'm used to. It's now up ~3X _and I still have 18 more months to watch it run._ Thanks for your continued insight and keep up the great work!
You’re the GOAT, James! I love the fact that you take the time to answer questions live for the entire episode. You make each and every person feel so special by taking the time to read and respond to comments. Your down to earth and the community is blessed to have you share your deep knowledge. As always, thanks for your for love of the animals. If every community had more folks like you, the world would be a much better place. ❤
Last week the Large EV Vehicle stocks Charged Up above the Market... Looking forward to see which will continue Leading in Gains Again This week....* XOS Trucks 24 %....* HYZN.. 55 %....* NKLA.. 59 %.....* HYLN.. 8 %......* LEV 4 %. Thumbs Up Video / Comment... Thanks.
No way. James... I literally did the math for BTC to hit 120k at the end of 2024- a few hours before you uploaded your video🙉🙉🙉 Phenomenal to know that I'm onto something here, according to Standard Chartered... However, I was also attempting to calculate partial DCA outs, in the case of a frontrun by institution manipulation, aka Blackrock. Ivan opened my mind to this... James, you are the man🙏❤
Great episode. I would caution against using claims such as Zero Chance for same bugs when it comes to Friedancer. Being written in a different language does help but does not guarantee lack of bugs. A few of many reasons below: - any client uses a large underlying technology stack from open source third parties. Many of these dependencies overlap between clients. - Developers are prone to peek into other clients code and respectively carry over algorithms along with bugs. - Humans have a tendency to repeat mistakes. Which is why most common bugs are far more prevalent than exotic ones. - ETH at this stage has at least 5 execution layer clients and 5 consensus layer clients built in different languages by different teams. Yet there are still occasions when multiple clients error for similar reasons that causes network issues such as the recent finality delays.
Fantastic video as always, hats off to you James! Having Rob in DCA will be interesting to watch. With Ben and Guy from Coinbureau, they also have a nice NFA show with good alpha but god are they dull and pessimistic, the exact opposite of you James! That’s why your show is the best. Rob said so himself “the bears look smart but the bulls make the money” 😂
Some folks who aren't even bears believe that BTC will have the bull run cut short again like 2021. It was obvoiusly different last time because the third cycle becomes more predictable and people frontrun and manipulate. Even more people are expecting $100k BTC than last cycle! are you worried blackrock and other spot ETFs will come and kill the run? I'm worried about Larry Fink way more than Gensler.
Swapped btcx (Canadian btc etf) to mstr when mstr discount was about 50%. Now mstr has premium of about 20%. Do you think it may go even higher when bullrun frenzy comes in or is it good time to swap?
Now I did have a ton of XRP, sold a lot last year just because tired of hearing about SEC and waiting, but I still have some, sold half, loaded the hatchback with SOL. well above my original goal. So great, set a goal, reach it, set new goals.
Love the video james I dont understand eth anymore it seems risky. And why not just use Matic or even better Solana Anyway cant wait to enjoy the bull market with you brother. Ive certainly enjoyed the bear because of you
James thank you for your content! i cant wait every day to watch your videos. it would be absolutely amazing if you could make a video that is step by step with your knowledge now how you would learn what you know now again if you had to do it again. for example: i would read book "x" then paper trade "x" style then once more comfortable i would read "x" book and learn "x" strategies then i would learn "intro to technical analysis from "x" source and so on. please please please do this for us. thank you very much!
Hi James great video today and my question is swapping on Ledger the right way to go or is it not ? I’m not understanding all of the things you do on and use the blockchain or Solanda with swapping crypto. Thanks James
Hi, I signed up and paid for the Substack membership. Is there any exclusive content because I can see that you upload the same information on TH-cam for free. What is the point of the payment membership on Substack?
I'm great at buying. Terrible at selling. Also, I'm a shrimp. It must be nice to have millions on the side to buy 25%+ dips on steroids 🙄 I think one of the reasons I don't sell on the way up, is because I feel it won't change my life significantly and I need huge gains to make a difference. But I'm working ok changing that mindset and have been working ok changing that mindset for 2 years.
You’re not alone. I won’t say where I am on the scale (shrimp, crab, etc.), but I will not sell any BTC or ETH for fear that the one time I try to take profits everything will go to the moon. I have enough in my bag that if BTC and ETH do what James and Saylor expect in the next 7 years, I’ll be set for life. Of course I’m 57, so I may have different goals than you. Point is there is nothing wrong with being protective of what you have. Accumulate and look forward to the day when that strategy will pay off.
James, I haven’t heard you mention Galaxy Digital Holdings lately and at one time you mentioned you held a small bag. Any thoughts/opinions now on Galaxy in this pro Bitcoin/Crypto environment?
You always make predictions on where you think btc could go on the next bull run. But can you do an analysis on where you think mstr could run to. I have a large position and would like to have a better understanding of my selling strategy when btc is at all time highs
Master Value and Bet Size and you can master Betting. Yes, stocks, crypto, options, poker, sports betting... all gambling, all probability and tendency. Master Value and Bet Size. If not you are doomed to fail. The more patient, the better the value as the patient wait for the fat pitch. Its simple... but never easy.
Has the Solana team figured out how to defend against these dDos attacks yet? You really can't have a network shutting down like that , off and on , on a fairly regular basis. One of the reasons these networks have non-nominal fees is to defend against attacks, because if you have extremely low fees, attackers can spam the network. That's one of the very early Proof of WORK use cases was to protect against email spam. I know Solana is technically still Beta, for how long? Any project could just perpetually claim they are in a beta version. I hope Anatoly and team are working hard on this issue of protecting the network, because if you claim you don't stake ETH because of network security issues, how can you genuinely claim no security concerns staking SOL knowing these attack vectors are still open?
"They lose 20 cents per dollar on every dollar of service they have." But they make it up on volume. Recycled an old GM jone for SOFI nyuck nyuck nyuck *_wack_* oh wize guy eh?
Amazing show as always! I am part of the Patreon group, but wanted to ask if you will be giving tips to increase SOL bag by trade in and out of SOL and/or pair trading?
Don't pick anything with the word MOON in...... really ! Is that your considered opinion. Come on , you can do better than that James. Moonbeam was the first parachain in the Polkadot chain. Safe, secure, cheap and reliable. All the polkadot projects have been very slow to get traction. Great number of validations and good nakamoto score. 90% of ATH so are you saying dodge Polkadot and all their parachains ? You have the smartest team so what about Polkadot and Moonbeam ? Ditch because of the name ?

Any thoughts on the ledger issue with unstaking Solana ?
Thanks James.

Hi James you always mention Australia don't forget us kiwis. We are well into Bitcoin. Appreciate you Gwendo

@@InvestAnswers sorry james. I missed that somehow. I know it's not a big deal really. Take care and thanks
James thanks for your work. When they introduced spot gold? What happend with the price of gold after spot option?

Couldn't agree more!
Since Btc futures was allowed. Could it be because Gary Gensler knows big player can manipulate the price?
James love all you offer! Question is with mining stocks. Do you a local top prior to having due to rewards cutting 50%
Great content as always! Thank you James and InvestAnswers team!

Will a Blackrock BTC ETF affect MSTR's price and how?

I feel the same as both of you. I have yet to sell anything, but am promising myself I will this next (hopefully) bull run.
I’m with you guys, I learned the hard way that I’m no good at trading
Fair play to you James giving the bears the time they need to catch up.
Thank you for looking out for our snake friends. They're super helpful to get rid of pests. 💪🐍
will the firedancer upgrade will all the Rust dapps be obsolete?
Codebase created for concurrency will be able to port that onto the new validator and still reap the efficiency benefits.😊
Fantatstic Work.. great contribution to showcase Canberra!!
Glad you enjoyed it

Im going to buy the European bitcoin ETF as soon as its avaliable
thank you
James, I haven’t heard you mention Galaxy Digital Holdings lately and at one time you mentioned you held a small bag. Any thoughts/opinions now on Galaxy in this pro Bitcoin/Crypto environment?
long long time ago that was early 2021. Have not touched it since. Novogratz lost the plot
Thanks James
Great message
How do you calculate the discount of SOL held by Grayscale vs holding the “true coin”?
You always make predictions on where you think btc could go on the next bull run. But can you do an analysis on where you think mstr could run to. I have a large position and would like to have a better understanding of my selling strategy when btc is at all time highs
I would like to hear about MSTR as well!
Thanks James, I've been watching your channel for a couple of years now. But just started to listen thank you.
Thanks for listening

Sorry I was late. What are your views on FTM?
Why is this Dot then so underrated when it has got such a great decentralization as well as a better image in the eyes of SEC?
Best dex is apex imo
Great show thank you, wealth preservation would be great if I was wealthy 😂 I got to take some risks, maybe after this bull run 👍
You can do it!
What if Blackrock bought Grayscale? DCG needs money. They can't touch Grayscale's assets but they can sell the company.
James, can you please put CSPR on your "Should I buy" list?
Thanks buddy
No problem 👍

Nakamoto coefficient is all good and well but Solana is not decentralized by any means yet.
you wanna talk about icp because there is a icp and eth integration coming i think this week which should be pretty big

Amazing show as always! I am part of the Patreon group, but wanted to ask if you will be giving tips to increase SOL bag by trade in and out of SOL and/or pair trading?
Great suggestion! Yes PTOS is the best way - go long up and short down.
@@InvestAnswers PT with Ethereum?
Didn’t you call for sol to be several hundred dollars by 2023 in prior videos? Love your stuff, but just saying
my first videos on SOL were when it was $10 to $20 and yes I had a price target of $260 by 2023 - it actually hit it in 2021.
Easy?
Not for me.
