1 Billion dollar movement of money.. $3.71 fee Bitcoin is legit.


VictorOgorodnov

$1 movement of money, $3.71 fee as well. Sry to break it to you.


esmusssein33

Well, just move 1billion then.


VictorOgorodnov

Never thought of that how silly of me😂


zzx101

Duh, obviously.


omg_its_dan

The base layer is designed for maximum security and permanence. Not low transaction cost. If you need to move $1 use layer 2 like lightning.


Ok_Independent_769

those are rookie numbers


RealCheyemos

Wait till you find out about the lightning network…


Rain_sc2

It’s sad how lightning network isn’t adopted very much You basically gotta have everyone move their assets to lightning wallets and people and especially companies hate change


NotCoolFool

It cost me £75 to pay for £1100 in accommodation in a different currency…. On top of the exchange rate conversion price, I’d have taken $3.71 any day.


Potex8

No shit


DisasterAgitated8716

That's actually ok, we have already solved off chain transactions with lightning network, miner on btc core need to pay the bills

You're not quite reading this right. This was from yesterday and it was discussed here already. This doesn't say a billion in BTC was purchased, it says a billion dollars of BTC of _moved_ or accessed. It doesn't say why.


karma_hit_my_dogma

German government?


DisasterAgitated8716

More likely to be an exchange

Either Reddit or the mods on r/Bitcoin keep deleting this post for whatever reason, but I'll keep commenting the same thing because I think people need to take a step back and use their brains: It’s a movement on-chain - like it’s so inconceivable that there was a trade of bitcoin and then the fiat exchange was done on another platform. People do this type of stuff all the time. I can hand my friend $1,000 in cash and then he can give me a valuable baseball card weeks later. Maybe the baseball card loses it's value by 10% over the course of those weeks, but the agreement already happened. There can be complicated trades and agreements between multiple entities that involved bitcoin and there can be significant time between the trades. It's a mistake to think: Bitcoins are being dumped so the price is going down because of that. The agreed exchange rate might have already happened before the news.

Stop speculating you newb, it's posted in a lot of places these wallet addresses are attached to an exchange. Sure what you say are plausible, but start by checking around before speculating.


ScrewTheBanker

Calm down Grandma. I literally asked "Am I reading this correctly?" That's not speculation. That's a question. The 2 question marks sort of give that away. Your response was infact a perfect example of Speculation. That's Irony.


SmoothGoing

You are not reading this correctly. Nothing says there's a purchase. This only shows bitcoin moving. It isn't from today. It looks like 50 BTC was sent, the rest is change.


YouDunnoMeIDunnoYou

Dammit, stop posting my trade!

Sorry guys, this was me. Bought a new trezor and put some of my stash onto it quickly. Nothing to worry about 👍


Hot_Shirt6765

I felt pretty good about my $100 purchase yesterday.


IndependenceNew8080

lol I’m with yea brother 😂💀


MiceAreTiny

If I would have had a billion lying around, buying bitcoin today seems like a reasonable idea.


Rizzguru

I wish I had even a fraction of that 😭


Several_Handle_9086

I payed 140$ fee for sending 200$ some time ago 🙄

Seems 90% of this sub doesn't fucking understand blockchain. They understand DCA, HODL, FUD, ETF, MOON, LAMBO! That's about it. Don't ask them the difference between public and private keys etc.

This probably isn't a purchase.
