Sucks not having much fiat to invest in these moments.
Going to be interesting to see what happens in the coming weeks/months.

I'm pretty happy I bought in at around 4k. I predict BTC is going to reach 50000 a coin.

I don't want to derail this thread if you want to argue head on over to the political discussion. Also cannabinated have you done any crypto investing?

Hell yea I'm pretty happy so far. I have seen some bitcoin bulls predict up to one million a coin but I don"t think thats realistic unless we get hyper inflation or the world reserve currency becomes bitcoin. I do think we could see 50000 in the next few years.

Going to be interesting to see what happens in the coming weeks/months.
My friend was just telling me some interesting news about BTC he has been following. Apparently some group has like 40% of the total BTC so far and is trying to get 50%+ to control over half the BTC chain.
Apparently once someone has control of over half they will be able to do stuff like re write blockchain history, so it sounds like it will no longer be a decentralized currency if they succeed
I haven't been following closely for awhile, so who knows how true that is. But if it does happen they might be able to artificially inflate the BTC price to insane amounts or exploit artificial drops/rises in value. Hopefully it never happens.

51% Attack
Definition of 51% Attack 51% attack refers to an attack on a blockchain – usually bitcoin's, for which such an attack is still hypothetical – by a group of miners controlling more than 50% of the network's mining hashrate, or computing power. The attackers would be able to prevent new transactions from gaining confirmations, allowing them to halt payments between some or all users. They would also be able to reverse transactions that were completed while they were in control of the network, meaning they could double-spend coins.
They would almost certainly not be able to create a create new coins or alter old blocks, so a 51% attack would probably not destroy bitcoin or another blockchain-based currency outright, even if it proved highly damaging.
Breaking Down 51% Attack Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are based on blockchains, a form of distributed ledger. These digital files record every transaction made on a cryptocurrency's network and are available to all users – and the general public – for review, meaning that no one can spend a coin twice. (So-called "private blockchains" introduce permissions to prevent certain users of the general public from seeing all the data on a blockchain.)
As its name implies, a blockchain is a chain of blocks, bundles of data that record all completed transactions during a given period of time. For bitcoin, a new block is generated approximately every 10 minutes. Once a block is finalized – "mined," in the jargon – it cannot be altered, since a fraudulent version of the public ledger would quickly be spotted and rejected by the network's users.
However, by controlling the majority of the computing power on the network, an attacker or group of attackers can interfere with the process of recording new blocks. They can prevent other miners from completing blocks, theoretically allowing them to monopolize the mining of new blocks and earn all of the rewards. For bitcoin, the reward is currently 12.5 newly-created bitcoins, though it will eventually drop to zero. They can block other users' transactions. They can send a transaction and then reverse it, making it appear as though they still had the coin they just spent. This vulnerability, known as double-spending, is the digital equivalent of a perfect counterfeit and the basic cryptographic hurdle the blockchain was built to overcome, so a network that allowed for double-spending would quickly suffer a loss of confidence.
Changing historical blocks - transactions locked in prior to the start of the attack - would be extremely difficult even in the event of a 51% attack. The further back the transactions are, the more difficult it would be to change them. It would be impossible to change transactions prior to a checkpoint, past which transactions are hard-coded into bitcoin's software.
On the other hand, a form of a 51% attack is possible with less than 50% of the network's mining power, but with a lower probability of success.

Alt-coins are also on the rise: Litecoin, Ethereum, BCH, Decred, and so on. Worth considering for those who have missed the BTC train due to limited financial resources. I think Litecoin is hovering around the 85-$90 price right now... Ethereum Classic is around $6 or so per coin.
