I’m a Bitcoin bull, and believe it will eventually be a hedge against inflation...

But right now this thing moves in line with the market :(

Does it shake your confidence at all that once bitcoin stops going up people just invent new coins to YOLO into? Seems like there’s a hypothetically limitless number of possible coins and a limited potential crypto market cap (though it may be much higher than it is now).

100% true, but I think Bitcoin has first mover / brand name advantage. Plus it’s at $1T market cap so it’s proven itself to be somewhat reliable (so far).

Next step would be to convince people that this doesn’t have to be a currency to thrive, it could just be a store of value and replace gold. Too many people still think the only path to success is to replace the dollar.

Living in Van. Previously lived in Toronto. Obviously rent prices are high as is cost of living. Generally go out and spend more often living in a city. Boyfriend and I on good salary but not saving much due to the above. Before we move home to our own country, we’d love to spend a year close to Vancouver where rent is cheaper, temptation is less, to save. A commute to Vancouver 1-2 times a month needs to be possible (his job). That can be a flight if it’s not crazy. Thoughts? Recommendations?
