    Very useful information, it increased my understanding of how transactions work. Now if I can just integrate that with educating myself in how to utilize the mempool and sparrow wallet, I'll be a happy camper. Thank you.

    I DCA and usually wait until I have a million satoshis or more on exchange before I send to a cold wallet. Start a new adress every few grand. If you do it this way you dont have to consolidate later on and its already done. I made the mistake when I started and had to consolidate my utxos on my cold wallet. I think he is right alot of people have no idea.

    Is there a way to generate yield with BTC perhaps by building or exchanging UTXOs (without providing a mixing service)

  • @davef5916
    @davef5916 Місяць тому +3

    I think its important to balance the not your keys not your coins mantra with finding an exchange that has a long history and only withdrawing when you have a sufficient amount for a reasonably sized UTXO. Like you said, the worst thing you could do is DCA 50 bucks and withdraw each time you make a purchase. Risk management as with everything in life!

    So when I add 50/week on NDAX are those all UTXOs? Then, when I get to $1000 CAD worth of BTC and send that to a cold wallet, did I just consolidate the smaller UTXOs into 1? How about going the other way. What if at the beginning I movedBTC to that wallet too frequently, I have 20 small UTXOs there. If I send it all back to Ndax does that consolidate it back to 1 UTXO?

  • @palmfirevisuals8269
    @palmfirevisuals8269 12 днів тому

    For "normies" doing DCA with a reputable exchange, you can get in a good habit of sending to HWW in significant UTXOs and generating a new HWW receive address for every withdrawal. Then, during a low gas fee period, you can further consolidate your moderate UTXOs from exchange to a mega cold storage chunk by sending to a passphrase wallet like once a year. How does that sound?

    An important, underdiscussed topic. John Bush of Freedom Cells tells his audience he buys $8 of BTC every day at 11:00 AM as a DCA strategy. He's aware of UTXO management, so I find it baffling that he continues this strategy. He could at least change that to $56 one day a week, even though I still think that's still a bad strategy in light of UTXO management concerns.

    Acceptable to spend a $10 fee on a $1000 transactiin.
    By that logic when most transactions are $1million a $1000 fee would be the norm.
    BTC = Freedom money for the 1%
