I think you'll hit it with the 2040 guess: https://charts.bitbo.io/long-term-power-law/ 2028-2037 depending on base or bull case

And the rate of decrease for the 40-54 crowd, yikes.

Yes, but US retail is largely absent from those markets. Imagine the Friday late night trading volatility from the WSB crowds coming home from the bars. Pure beauty.

Lightning is more anonymous than the main BTC chain. LN nodes can only see where the payment is coming from and going to on its multi-hop journey to the ultimate recipient.

IBIT options start trading tomorrow. Will this be good/bad/ugly for BTC? Will retail turn this into a GME part 2?
