I definitely wouldn't long term hold BTC right now.

Hey @exxodus...I really hate when it seems like I'm waffling on my opinion; but, I totally agree with you on many levels regarding BTC. It is a very controlled asset, manipulated by a few.

I'd like to think that it might become a tangible alternative to fiat, long term; but, there are so many ramifications needed for this to occur, that yes, as is, fundamentally it's most likely to fail.

I have to admit, I will prolly hodl simply because I don't have much of a vibe for crypto at this point. I embarked on this journey just to see what it was about; and, have to admit it leaves me a bit 'underwhelmed' due to volatility and too few regulations...I can't believe I said that.

Thanks again for the tip!

Peace.
