good comment

I forgot to disclose I own shares of MSTR in my Roth IRA

I even convinced my cousin to buy btc and MSTR

I went all-in last summer with my 401k to MSTR (at least as much as it would let me allocate) and it's been great.

Having said that I buy the real thing given the choice.

summer of 23 or 24?

either way, nice job

  1. thanks

After the ETFs came out... I sold some shares to put into the etf to reduce 'key-man' risk.

Whether that was a good idea or not I'm not sure I guess I'll know eventually

reply

summer of 2023 means your MSTR holdings are up 500%

great timing!

luck + skill

reply

Not skill. Just curiosity (staying up all night listening to btc podcasts and interviews)

reply

You’re being modest!

I should have said knowledge plus luck

Knowledge > skill for investing

LOL have fun being Saylor bitch

For your information (because obviously you don't know...)

There is no way to purchase real Bitcoin in a 401k. It's impossible.

reply

This is correct

I am 95 percent sure Darth has muted me for supporting liquid

reply

Well liquid or no liquid...

Employer-based 401Ks are not optional at least in my country. They are 'assigned' to all workers. And in them there is simply no way to buy 'spot' Bitcoin in self-custody. Maybe one day, but there isn't right now.

As far as 'real Bitcoin'... if I didn't own some of that I wouldn't be on SN

reply

There are SN users who use liquid to balance their Lightning channels

Boltz is a great service

Aqua and CoinOS are great for beginners

reply

I agree 100%.

I believe that eventually Liquid will be used as a balancing-tool more widely...

It's a cheap way to balance channels without having to pay much in sats.

Chain swaps have their place, but are too expensive for small Lightning channels.

Why the fuck you need a 401k? Just buy directly BTC. Done. Or you are just a pussy, not having balls to go all in into Bitcoin. And that means fiat mindset. A true bitcoiner will always go all in.

reply

We can’t change the past.

401k preceded the genesis block.

The tax penalties are significant. It’s easier to buy MSTR in a 401k or Roth IRA

Darth your guides are awesome. They are super informative.

But sometimes you lack... tact. And subtlety.

And cannot read between the lines

I read more than you can imagine and also my bullshit-meter is always very accurate
