Arkham alert were blamed for the drop but they state that the drop happened minutes before they sent out an alert ...
US Gov dump to stop investors leaving Banks as FRC fails ? MtGox sell ?
Who knows..
That was quite some drop tho
That was some drop... Looks like it was a fake report about the US Gov/ MtGox sale of BTC. The report was retracted...
I'd say having at least some Bitcoin should be viewed as part of a diversified portfolio.
Five years would be two halving cycles and a significant reduction in newly mined Bitcoin...
Nice to see a new face on here :-)
Brave move.
There was a sharp drop so o bought in.
First Republic Bank FRC
Not FRB
FRB taking a big hit after earnings...
Banks back in the spotlight but will we see more fail ?
If countries like Russia, North Korea and Iran use Crypto to circumvent sanctions, the US will just go after the sector even harder. I don't see any future where Bitcoin is successful, of course that's my personal opinion.

The US has warned four European countries about the methods Russia is using to evade sanctions and provided them with a detailed list of the high-value dual-use goods it is trying to acquire, as Washington steps up efforts to stop Moscow procuring weapons for the war in Ukraine.
Brian Nelson, US Treasury under secretary for terrorism and financial intelligence, visited Switzerland, Austria, Italy and Germany this week on a tour designed to show how Russia is trying to repair its degraded military industrial supply chains by getting round western export controls.
“Russia is throwing a lot of resources at circumventing our sanctions,” a US official said, adding that it was learning from other heavily sanctioned countries such as Iran about how to obtain sensitive technologies through the back door.

That's the reason I only purchase my own shares in share dealing accounts, I would never use a service like Milton's.
I just watched the latest one and they highlighted how Taylor Swift turned down $100M to promote FTX because she was concerned that her fans might be scammed into buying unregistered **** coins .... Kevin O'leary was not worried and took the money . Good podcast imo
Youtube then chose a BBC World Service video from April 13th as an auto play video... (i don't subscribe to any BBC (British Brainwashing Corp stuff ;)

I think it's all an illusion and that satellites don't exist (well apart from Google Loon and other high altitude balloon satellites.
I used to track Google loon Balloons on flight radar... They took that ability away
Imagine all those balloons floating around pretending to be in space ... Like the Chinese balloon
I also have opinions about Starlink too. I question the strategy of putting 12000 satellites in orbit. Apparently the average lifespan of a Low Earth Orbit satellite is 5 or 6 years, so the constellations would have to be refreshed every 5 years. The service is most useful for rural geographically isolated areas, with sp**** population density, so isn't really suitable to serve large population numbers, with high bandwidth requirements, since semi rural and urbanised areas could be served through Fibre and 5G.
OneWeb are looking at around 650 satellites at an altitude of 1200Km, or double the altitude of the Starlink constellations. OneWeb will partner with local telecom providers, rather than offering a direct residential service it'll be a backhaul service for the providers. I'm not saying this because OneWeb has a UK element, it's my true opinion that the OneWeb strategy makes more business sense. There are a few ways LEO's could provide service, Musk has chosen to put up thousands of satellites and provide service direct to the end user; OneWeb are letting the local provider deal with the metaphorical "last mile", which could be from hilltop masts or maybe High Altitude Platforms.
In summary (From what I've read:
Quantity (forecasted)
Starlink 12000 Satellites
OneWeb 650 Satellites
Altitude
Starlink Around 500Km to 600Km
OneWeb Around 1200Km
OneWeb has potentially higher Uplink/Downlink latency, dependent on distance to each Satellite and distance to Ground stations, but you're talking around minimum 4ms latency for Starlink vs around 8ms minimum for OneWeb.
Because of OneWeb satellites higher altitudes, there's a larger window for line of sight for terrestrial stations/terminals.
I've rambled on a bit, to highlight my opinion, but do Starlink really need to put so many satellites in orbit?
Honestly, how SpaceX and all the other US commentators can describe the launch as a success is beyond me; They have to describe it as a success to keep investors on-board, pardon the pun, whereas in reality the investment has literally blown up. Rockets have been launched for 60 years, so scaling up the size of the rocket to lift more weight is a question of thrust to weight ratio. To my mind the hardest things would be the Booster separation and then landing the Starship afterwards, which it didn't achieve. The podcast hyped up America big time, to deflect from the epic failure. America F^(k Yeah.

Because the US uses fixed rate 30 year mortgages, it doesn't surprise me that the US housing market is suffering. I can't see someone in the US locking in a 6% interest rate, over 30 years, when everyone's telling them that interest rates will soon come down as inflation drops.

Well at least they managed to give us all a fleeting look at the flat horizon at 32 KM (about 20 miles or 105,000 feet)

Musks face is priceless which coincidentally is the resale value of his Rocket or is that valueless i'm sure there's a difference lol
