 No, we’re not just treading water 
 lol… English not my 1st language, I actually had to chatgpt that shit to know what u meant, lol

“Treading water” is a metaphor from swimming; it means staying afloat without actually moving forward. In this context, they’re arguing that Bitcoin isn’t just maintaining its value relative to inflation (staying afloat), but actually gaining value beyond the inflationary impact. Essentially, they’re suggesting that Bitcoin’s rise is genuine and represents real growth or progress, not just an adjustment to keep up with the dollar’s depreciation. 
 Gotta love it 
 Why not 
 Why just look at the peaks? Why not look at the bottoms too? Or the moving average?

Tops in Bitcoin are usually blowoff. 
 💯 agree… everyone putting the ATH on Trump’s potential win soon will realize #Bitcoin don’t matter and will do its thing regardless. Politicians talk is just that, specially campaigning… we’ll see what side the iguana chews on… (chatgpt that! lol)… I’m just kinda surprised how US bitcoiners are pouring their hopes on Trump, lol 
 lol… “pouring” = autocorrect for putting… guess it didn’t come too bad
