#ethereum will be under going the so called "Triple Halving" as part of the ETH 2.0 upgrade. This is a highly significant economic event for the asset which has serious implications for the price of ETH in the coming years

Thread
First let's understand how much Ethereum is mined every day right now.

Daily block rewards paid out to miners are currently around 12,800 ETH a day

etherscan.io/chart/ethersup…
This means that every day there is 25.6 million dollars a day worth of sell pressure for Ethereum! And because we are in a proof of work system miners are constantly selling, dumping on the market. Why? Because miners run a cash business. We are in a mine and dump economy for ETH
However, Ethereum is about to undergo a massive upgrade that will fundmentally change ETH forever. Devs are fast tracking "The Merger" which will end proof of work forever and usher in the proof of stake era. The Merger could happen by the end of 2021, or perhaps early 2022.
The first obvious implication of this upgrade is the transition from a mine and dump economy to a stake and restake economy. Proof of stake encourages saving since the more ETH you have the more you make. Proof of work encourages selling.
The other wildly important aspect of The Merger is that ETH will undergo a 90% reduction in daily emission. Basically from 12,800 a day to 1,280 a day!

Yearly inflation from 4.3% down to 0.43%

This is equivalent to 3 Bitcoin halvings, and is only months away!
The crazy thing is even with daily miner dumping supplies of ETHER on exchanges continue to reach record lows. Showing that the market is absorbing the miner supply flow and then some. This supply flow will be cut 90% soon. This is NOT priced in yet IMO.
We also must factor in EIP 1559 which will introduce fee burning which will be another factor to make ETHER rarer and moon the price.

Had EIP 1559 been active the last year it would have burned around 8,000 ETH per day. And soon only 1280 a day will be made.

Moon math things
And this is all happening at a time when there is record demand for access to the Ethereum blockchain for Defi and NFTs, meaning that the ETHER asset is in record demand.
Summary
90% supply emission drop coming + shift to stake and HODL economy + fee burning + soaring demand = MOON

Part of the many reasons why I keep stacking ETH

An incredible financial shift is taking place before our eyes with institutional money steadily flowing into the market.

If you zoom out and actually understand what is coming then you will know this decade will be insane for #crypto #bitcoin #ethereum

thread
A recent survey by Fidelity shows that 90% of institutions plan to have exposure to crypto by 2026. That is INSANE.

decrypt.co/76380/vast-maj…
"institutions" represents a very broad group.
Here's a break down of money by group (non exhaustive list)
Hedge Funds 4 trillion
Sovereign Wealth Funds 5 trillion
Central Banks 9 trillion
Asset Managers 34 trillion

Even a fraction of this money entering crypto is HUGE!!!

Is $100,000 #bitcoin still possible in 2021?

A thread 👇
First let me say that it doesn't really matter when it happens. 6 digit BTC will come, only question is when. But end of year is a fun idea so let's dig in.
Is there precedent for an asset having a massive run up, then a long brutal corrective period followed by a spectacular blow off top later that year? Yes, of course.

Ethereum did almost excactly that in 2017, ended the year 237% higher than the "top"

As I frequently mention I invest beyond the world of #crypto and #bitcoin, crazy I know...

Anyway here are my top #stocks in my portfolio right now.
1 - My biggest stock holding is Brookfield Property Partners. They run hundreds of commercial and retail properties around the globe. Dividend is 5.19%. This is my big property play in a portfolio otherwise heavy in tech and renewables.
2 - iShares Gold Strategy ETF is a fund that is exposed to a variety of gold products. Dividend is 8.06%. I like gold and dividends. Easy.

Here are 7 reasons that I remain mega bullish on #ethereum, why I continue to cost average in, why I continue to buy oversold dips, and why I will hold my ETH until the multi trillion market valuation comes... at which point I will be staking and making sweet passive income!
1 Ethereum ETFs are here, and will only become more prevalent. Canada and now Brazil have approved ETH ETFs. There are multiple ETH ETF applications sitting with the SEC in the USA. Approval of which will unleash a tsunami of money onto ETH. markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/sk…
2 Ethereum is the king of innovation in crypto, with the biggest dev lead. The release of multiple layer two implementations really underlines this. Uniswap, the biggest DEX on ETH, has just announced their integration of Optimism for scaling. This kills the ETH killers.

How to retire with #crypto, a thread for those wanting to escape the rat race!
1 First you need to determine how much you need to retire. Classic calculation is 25 X your annual expenses based on withdrawing 4% annually. IE your expenses are $50,000 a year then you'll need 1.25 million. Just 1.25 million, I'm sure you all have that laying around right?
I do want to point out though that this total amount saved could be a lot less since rates of return are so high in crypto. IE 250k in Anchor would give your 50k a year passive. Still though the more the better.

Later in July, starting from the 13th Grayscale will begin the unlock of around 41,000 #bitcoin worth of GBTC shares. But WTF does this actually mean and should you be worried.

You need to read this thread!

👇
1 - FUD master in chief JP Morgan is saying that it will dump BTC to 25k. I tend to never believe what these criminal financial terrorists say as a rule of thumb.

cryptoslate.com/jpmorgan-says-…
1.1 Celsius CEO Mashinsky thinks it will cause a big sell off. BUT his maths are epicly badly flawed. He says 20 billion (570K BTC) will be unlocked which is categorically not true., it is 41k BTC. Sounds like someone is shorting or highly misinformed?
