Thanks for breaking it down, this is a confusing issue for people like me who aren't users of Bitcoin

You chose to share this at a time bitcoin is currently crashing. Is this a bottom signal or what?

Probably, in my possibly incorrect opinion, this Trump is a tame, short-leashed macaque of Elon Musk. Well made up

Cash is the only one for me, besides gold and silver, I don't think you can buy many things with the bit coin because most people they don't use it, ,

Grifters gonna grift and Bitcoin is an easy way for President Mysk to manipulate markets.

I wouldn't touch any crypto-currency - or in fact any financial service - that Trump has been with a mile of.
