@@Bitcoin_Universityabsolutely, Matthew! Your channel is a bright light in dark inflated fiat times… take your time; you’ve been busy and covering some great topics. Thanks for all that you do.
That puts you in the top %. Great job brother. If love Bitcoin you might also love the BITCOIN METAVERSE. Yes Mark missed the mark and the Metaverse is actually on Bitcoin. Research Ordinal NFTs like Bitmap
I began watching your videos in 2020 and bought your course. I have never sold a sat and bought more bitcoin the last four and half years. There is no way I would have done this without your help. Thank you.
Yes I’m indeed grateful for Bitcoin University, I just wish he understood and covered the BITCOIN METAVERSE. Thanks to Ordinal NFTs and it’s now sparked the beginning of DEFI and the creation of a DECENTRALIZED metaverse on the most secure beautiful blockchain on earth. The next social media will be ON BITCOIN, EVERYTHING will go on Bitcoin. Bitcoin is the worlds greatest host ❤️
Thank you Matt! Those that continue to talk down Bitcoin and spread fud, very possibly are buying sats while others are dumping their's out of fear. Never sell your Bitcoin, and hodl on!
Time flies! Been following you since 2021. Learned a lot and you definitely helped me maintain my cool during the rockier times. God bless you and your family
Thanks for another great video. Agree that we are still early. Sorta crazy to think that in 5 or 10 years we'll look back at "the good old days" when you could pick up few hundred thousand sats without breaking the bank.
While I have a long way to go to get to financial freedom, I can honestly say it has been a great honor and benefit to be among those who listen to you, Matthew! Thank you for your explicitly clear explanations and your awesome humor. May God continue to Bless you 🙏
I was fortunate enough to have a long conversation today with two women while getting a haircut. One of them already owned a little bit of Bitcoin which made everything much easier. We talked about why it matters, the history of money and the way the current fiat system works (or fails to work). It was incredibly refreshing to see them taking it seriously instead of jumping to conclusions or touting the usual nonsense arguments.
Thanks for all you've done Matt. Your uploads have always been a real tonic for the mind when freedom money is being attacked over and over. Congratulations to you on reaching the Subs milestones I am certain that they will keep increasing. I'm a proud toxic maxi subscriber and that is not going to change this side of a $10m a coin. All the very best for the future of the channel and have a fantastic festive season. Thank you again.

Thank you, Matthew. You have provided free education with incredible consistency for years now, but also provided calm and wisdom that has helped me keep on track on what can be a stressful ride. Honestly, can't thank you enough.

I kept ignoring bitcoin for years - then finally I started buying crypto in 2021. I got to talk to the wrong people and had the same attitude like most new investors. Bitcoin is already so high priced it won't go any higher and I can't buy much of it and won't get a high ROI. I bought altcoins instead and it became an addiction so I put all my savings and salaries into it. Long story short like you often say every altcoin is a scam I lost around 95% of my investment and completely stopped investing into crypto. Found your channel this summer and started to invest again but into bitcoin and bitcoin only. Thank you for your very educational videos. Best channel to learn about Bitcoin. ❤
Thank you Matthew. One of the main reasons for my strong conviction during the bear market. Never sold a single coin. Always bought. I'm a small black hole. No bitcoin will ever leave me.
Thank you, Matthew. Your sensibility is very helpful. And now a confession. First, I am thoroughly a bitcoiner DCA. Unfortunately, I ignored your advice about ship coins. I decided to be an early investor in XAI. This was a stupid move and I wasted $1000 which was never returned or refunded. The online help was of course a bot. Twice I tried to move some old XRP that I had left over and was about to transfer it to bitcoin. But instead chose to use it for XAI. It failed because of a technological error on their part in which they only allocated a total of 10,000 coins from ADA or XRP. The bot stated that it was their fault because the system became “ jammed” they assured me I would be refunded and sent me the address. It failed. no refund. And the bot was unavailable. That by definition was a rug pull. All the advice you have given, has turned out to be true. And so I’m dumping everything left over from ship coins and putting it into bitcoin finally. Some of us are a little slow. 😂
Very sorry to hear about this happening-- I try to delete those stupid XAI and other bots as quickly as possible, but they are everywhere all over my channel. Thanks for sharing your experience. I will highlight it so others don't make the same mistake
And thank you Michael Saylor for speeding the s curve. Saylor’s contribution is huge, and can be summarized as connecting unlimited fiat to finite desirable commodity. Soon bitcoin sats will be divisible by 100 million- nano sats.
Plus there are quantum computer resistant encryption schemes that the dev could implement without too much trouble. Trade offs, there is no perfect solutions.
If quantum computing was fully in place today, it would not be a threat to BTC. The SHA256 is secure and the network is antifragile to quantum computing and the difficulty level would adjust if someone were to incorporate an advantage in mining with quantum ASICS if it became possible.
@@robertbrady3783 not strictly true - Satoshi did design Bitcoin to be anti-fragile toward quantum technology and while it is true hashing algorithms are not factorizable with quantum computing, elliptic curve multiplication is, which forms part of Bitcoin's cryptography systems.
As far as I know Kaspa has a pretty clever protocol for payments, so it might be useful, same like some other crypto protocols. No use comparing Bitcoin to Kaspa as it is comparing apples and oranges.
It’s not an apples to oranges comparison. It’s like comparing an apple seed full of amazing potential to grow the best apple tree ever to an already established apple tree that’s producing seasoned, perfectly ripe and juicy apples. If you’re a hungry man are you going to pick the tree producing beautiful sweet apples or are you going to pick the apple seed up out of the mud and put it in your mouth
Would love a video talking about index funds vs Bitcoin. For example, the 3 fund portfolio (US, international, bonds) is always considered the safest investment.
I love to have a beer with Kevin. I love to have a beer with Kev. … From a most famous and most loved Australian song. Happy birthday Kevin and God bless Mr Kratter.🎉 🍻
Also to comment on the video. Imo altcoins r ok to trade if u wanna have some fun with small amounts or whatever. But never long term like bitcoin with huge amounts.
I have a short parable that is USA centric and may not be obvious to the problem of fiat currency. Here it goes. Jack Daniel's Old No. 7 has held its price in USD for over five years now, unlike beef which goes up. Whiskey in the United States is made from corn. We grow a lot of corn. So it's in everything. It's in animal feed. It's in many food products that you would not expect. How can this be? Corn is a subsidized crop. The US government pays farmers to grow corn. Maybe that's not a very good parable, but there it is. I know ChatGPT can make things up, but I gave it this prompt. It produced an interesting output. "Can you give me a brief rundown on US corn subsidies by the US Government to farmers? I've noticed that the price of Jack Daniel's Old No. 7 hasn't budged in spite of inflation for over five years. Please include corn crop yields and annual valuation for the corn growing industry."

Is it actually possible BTC could be legally declared to be a currency with no capital gains taxes applied for spending? 🤔
@@OpenSourceFan Definitely, although the U.S. will probably go with making it de-facto legal tender (no capital gains taxes but not officially recognizing it as legal tender in name).
