Genuine question: is there a (non-financial) advantage in buying BTC, if I can invest in the miners instead? Their run ups will likely be higher compared to the coin itself. TIA!

Miners add third party risk

The vast majority of bitcoin has already been mined. The halving is coming shortly which will reduce circulation. Buy BTC directly and throw it into cold storage like “ledger”. Keep your coins off the exchange. I lost 56K on coins I left on the voyager exchange before they went bankrupt, learn from my mistakes. I’m back up to 4 bitcoins at 15K each. I’ve already made back my lost money on voyager. As the saying goes. NOT YOUR KEYS, NOT YOUR COINS.

RPM1: Thank you for your response. Could you pls elaborate the „so what“ of your first 2 sentences in the 1st comment when considering (not) investing in miners? Any additional thoughts about buying Microstrategy instead of BTC? Reason Inam asking is that I find it much easier to buy stocks than coins while simultaneously participating from a potential bull run.

Miners have headwinds as the halving comes up. Now, the cost of mining bitcoin becomes doubly expensive, so to maintain the same operating margins, BTC has to move up by 2x. Which could likely happen, but how long would it take?

I trade MARA quite a bit because it has large swings, but as an investment I'm just not so sure about it.

I checked out Mara and it looked good and got the nice 14% pop last week. The miners are riskier than the coin itself for obvious reasons. They aren't all equally efficient. I understand Bitcoin will trade on the exchange with an ETF reflecting the spot price next year at some point. That should increase interest in Bitcoin. Mine are kept at coinbase and it's solid as far as I know

There are lots of other risks into buying miners(technology, energy, …). Look at RIOT stick compared to the price of BTC. There is not a strong correlation.

Yeah, was wondering about the correlation as well. Thank you, much appreciated

The barrier to entry is low, not even sure if graduating high school is needed. My old agent even said she did it bc she can make a lot money and not work that much. She drove a new Mercedes and sent her kids to private school, husband was also an agent.

So I’m curious why it didn’t get flooded and the profit margin dampened to a $/hr closer to other jobs with similarly easy entry?

I accepted a new offer and put in my notice this week and my company provided a counteroffer. The offer is lower than my new offer but I know it’s the best they can do.

I have 2 questions 1) when does it make sense to prioritize workplace happiness/ balance over financial well-being? 2) if I go back on my offer acceptance should I consider that bridge burned?
