 Speculation and prediction can be fun, but is generally an unproductive waste of time. 

Here’s my best #Bitcoin-related life advice:
- Head down
- Work hard
- Stack sats
- Treat your bitcoin as the world’s greatest savings technology… not as a trade or even as an investment.

 Once you understand that, it gets really hard to tap into your bloodline generational wealth, even for absolute necessities.
Good whiskey,  bitches and such.
Beware, you risk loosing all that fun.

 Yes. If one  looks at buying bitcoin as just a way to preserve the purchasing power of one’s savings, outside of the central banking system, it works well.  And you are buying this preservation with a free deep out of the money put option on your local currency.
