Literally no one knows what they are talking about on here, there is no real advice to be had. You can’t analyze chaos..

If you bought bitcoin in 2017, you made some money. If you’re using it as an investment vehicle in 2026, you’re just rolling some expensive dice.

That being said, keep doing what y’all are doing… the memes are funny.

Kratter claims to care about on-chain self-custody while supporting a fork with a tiny 300kb max block size. In the long term, everyone on XBT will be using custodial L2s. 

High gold transaction fees : fiat :: high L1 bitcoin fees : L2 such as custodial lightning & liquid network

Q: What is this?

A: The BCH community is experimenting with exposing the naked shorting used by exchanges (famously Binance didn't even report their BCH reserves for a very long time - unlike other major coins). Of course, this is simply another manifestation of attempts to suppress Bitcoin the p2p cash as outlined in "Hijacking Bitcoin" book. The idea is to regularly coordinate a day when the community withdraws coins from exchanges to on-chain wallets and suck up all the available liquidity, create an impact on the price & in an extreme case blow up a naked shorting exchange that can't meet its BCH obligations. Think of it like GME & Wall Street Bets for BCH, or the XMR community has a similar idea called "Monerun". This was discussed on Podcast episode 142 if you want to hear more.

Q: When?

A: Now. Any time during the window 0:00 - 23:59 on bank run day UTC time ideally, but if you miss the window slightly that's fine the day after still works. The bank run repeats on the 1st & 15th of each month.

Q: How do I participate?

A: Buy BCH on any custodial exchange (with any fiat or other crypto) & withdraw to your self custodial wallet. Then like this thread & leave a comment saying you participated. Any exchange that is easiest for you or crypto ATM or even any p2p trade works - as long as you are increasing your BCH held self-custodially then you are contributing to the pressure on custodially held BCH supply (which will naturally flow through the market).

Q: What if I don't use exchanges / all my funds are in BCH already?

A: Great work on living the p2p cash dream! You can still contribute by selling some goods & services on that day in order to increase your self-custodial BCH, as well as make noise on social media to spread the word to others!

Q: If this is predictably repeated & publicly announced, can't people "frontrun" it by selling into our volume?

A: Yes, but that's a win if they do. If BCH Bank Run is popular enough to noticeably move the price, it's already working. If it's getting enough attention that new people are getting interested in the ecosystem & the coin to follow BCH & think about it regularly - even if they start out as speculators - that's a win. The curiosity of why BCH is uniquely acting like this will lead them to delve deeper sooner or later.

Q: Anything else I need to know?

A: BCH started at rank 23 & has climbed as high as rank 10 (!!!) since this initiative began. Coincidence? Hard to say. Exchanges issues have been plentiful in blocking withdraws. The whole market is obviously a scam, but the good news is that bank runs is one way we can potentially uncover naked shorting activity. Keep an eye on the price & watch the price today & this week to see what happens (or distress among custodial exchanges). I will update this thread with anything I notice.

Hey everyone, I personally use a DCA strategy for Bitcoin and invest with a long-term perspective. I’m currently working on a tool that helps identify potentially better moments for adding to a DCA position. The idea is to analyse different market conditions, support zones, liquidity, market structure, and risk to show whether the current setup looks reasonable for a DCA or whether it may be better to wait for a more attractive entry.

So basically Instead of spending hours watching charts, you could open the app and quickly understand:
• Is the current setup suitable for DCA?
• Is the price extended from a better entry zone?
• Is support holding or still unconfirmed?
• Should you add a small tranche or keep depo in reserve?
The goal isn’t to provide guaranteed predictions or financial advice, but to help make more structured decisions with clear head without reading the charts

Would a tool like this be useful to you for example? If yes maybe you have some advices what info would you want it to show before deciding whether to make a DCA purchase?

Has anyone looked into natinfosec’s articles about Blockstream? They allege that its cloud mining business operates as a Ponzi scheme and that investors have been misled.

• https://natinfosec.substack.com/p/adam-backs-blockstream-borrows-billions
• https://natinfosec.substack.com/p/adam-back-lies-greg-maxwell-chris
• https://natinfosec.substack.com/p/fraud-adam-back-samson-mow-chris

Has Blockstream responded, or are there independent analyses that substantiate or rebut these claims?

If Blockstream were to become insolvent, what would the practical consequences be for the wider Bitcoin ecosystem? Especially given that they control the Github Repo for Bitcoin Core.

For anyone who wants to monitor this, here’s a bankruptcy alert link: https://www.phrasealert.com/a/e3203400ac414ca5bba46f9fb09d8943
