Silver about a week ago had a 10% drop in few hours - stock market is a retirement ponzi scheme that could get very volatile without fed to backstop (think japan carry trade unraveling) Everything is volatile in fiat - shitty way to measure things Does BTC well support lightning withdrawals?

Global index fund is the best alternative in my opinion, but wouldnt store anything in it that I am not willing to lose

Diversify from only BTC to include BCH, Gold, chosen shares dependent on your risk profile.

permission to sell real estate? where do you live?

True. When you see volatility of the old USD back before 1915, it is like Himalayas.

The problem isn't volatility. The problem is that pedophiles were given the keys and put in charge of maintaining the code. As long as pedophiles control Bitcoin it's not a good store of value
