Looks like someone with the time could make some quick $$$'s with the daily swings lately!!

That’s what a lot of people in crypto do..

It used to be like clockwork.. like with Lite coin.. it would go up and fall every tues and Fri .. legit clock work. Lately it’s harder.. but In 2020ish on coins.. you could move 1000 here and there and make $$100 over and over due to the swings

Here are some cool visuals of nodes and channels from the bitcoin lightning network.
Every dot you can zoom in on and see their network reach.
I did kraken as an example.

Maybe it will help some visualize and gain perspective.

Is this supposed to show how fast or far the coins move?

I’m driving to MT from my brothers in Seattle.

Instantly transferred 10k from my checking account to E trade.

No ****ing around changing it from cash to coins to cash.

So again, what’s the point?

Your transfer is not settled, it's a credit in the system for a few days until it all clears.

Your bank and Etrade are closed more hours of the week then they are open.

It's not about going cash to coins to cash.

It's about private wallet to private wallet 24/7 365 with real time settlement verification.

Maybe there is no value in that to you... but it's a 1 Trillion dollar asset class growing faster than anything in human history.

Ok, for someone like me, how does BTC help me over USD?

Provide an example of how using BTC has served you where USD could not.

Yes I know the money has not cleared but the funds are available immediately.

It doesn't if all you need to do is move <10k from a bank to a brokerage.

Move >10k to a decentralized exchange on a Sunday at 3am to purchase various assets.

Take actual custody of said assets.

It's OK that you have no use for it.
There is an entire market that does.

Anyone else Crypto heading up? Guess I'm up 3K now.
Hard to say if we found a bottom and it's time to bounce or just stabilizing for a bit before we get more selling. A friend of mine bought Ethereum at around 1.2k and Bitcoin at around 20k. He is pretty happy but vigilant.

Can you offer some examples of purchases that you have made with BTC?

Ok, provide examples of ANY of those.

What decentralized exchange are you talking about? The ones that just went bankrupt?

And why would I need “custody” of the assets at 3am? Do I have “custody” of the cash in my bank account right now? Do you even have “custody” of your BTC??

Seriously. Write a scenario here where USD just ****ed someone or a deal closing that BTC could’ve saved. It doesn’t even have to be your scenario.

Yes, I use BTC for purchases on my gate.io account.

There's alot of conflating in your post, again, you have no use for crypto...it's ok.
