- Last year, Didi Taihuttu sold almost everything he owned, poured it into bitcoin and moved his family into a trailer park. In this episode of Moving Upstream, WSJ’s Thomas Di Fonzo goes on a year-long journey with the “Bitcoin Family” as they bet everything on a decentralized cryptocurrency future.

Are you willing to invest on bitcoin ?
@@gregmitchell8835 I’d hope you’re invested Greg. Especially since Bitcoin has skyrocketed to 57k since you commented! Godspeed to those who are! Lift off to 100k 🚀
I loved when he said , "Normal Schools prepares kids for the past, we prepare our kids for a decentralized future". ✌️
The kids are insured to be a multi milliner's...
When he said that, I realized that almost every skill I've used to earn money I mostly learned AFTER school. That's probably only gonna be more true in the future as technology changes even faster.
I'll credit early elementary school for some of the basics, but that's about it.
Hes right. If you teach kids business, social, home skills and technological skills (he ran a software teaching company), problem solving and objective thinking. That's all you need. It's so easy to learn new things with the internet. And in the new age to be rich is to be independent, not work for others.
but i suggest people still get pass through highschool though
CaliCoins 28, thats actually stupid. if you teach kids about the past, they will be better prepared from making the same mistakes of the past.
He is a lucky man for having such a supportive family.
Samuel Pezzetta imagine all the supportive families about to lose their kids because WSJ took 27 thousand from St.Judes
Haha, when he said that he doesn't have an endgame, his wife crossed her hands which is a textbook indicator of disagreement. If he teaches his kids skills which they will be able to use to acquire capital and increase their wealth, the family will stay together and live happy ever after. If he won't, that will change.
In either case, I'm really happy for him as I've wanted to leave the standard way of life for a long time but it seems that I have to wait many years more to secure funding for that. Make the dream happen, Didi!
They are right about the education system. It teaches you nothing about adapting for the changes that can happen in the future. The matter of fact is, the monetary system can be managed by technology better than by a single entity that can print money. Decentralize a lot of the important aspects of life and you become free. You are more relaxed in life and are able to achieve what you would want to achieve.
I think his wife was forced to do it or leave. it was his idea and he seems to be an alpha man so she is in it regardless. she seems a little bit unhappy and concern. and the kids are so happy because they don't have to go to school any more.
@@kmurph512 I'm all from him - I'm heavy invested in bitcoin and I have about a 60% unrealized loss- but I'm single with no kids and no obligations. but I can not support a man with a family and kids doing this regardless. I totally agree with the downsizing and home schooling. first he could of taken a reasonable amount of gains occasionally thru out the investment period so in the event of things not working out fast enough he would be able to easily sustain all of his family needs including the full emotional needs of his WIFE and an inheritance for his children. If Bitcoin is going to hit 250,000 why do you need to try to put every single dollar you have into it. makes no sense at all. if it's going to the moon what the difference between gaining 500 million instead of 1 billion dollars? You can always make money but you don't get LIFE back that was full of years worrying especially as an adult (his father passing/mine as well). and it's clear this was not his spouse's plan or idea.
Title should be: person who switched to minimalist lifestyle invests in bitcoin
This is actually quite beautiful. He has found real freedom
So he is basically still up as of this moment. Good for him.
Yeah, Bitcoin is dead said way too many people 7 months ago. Oops! Looks like it is closing in on 12K again!
Bitcoin "dies" every 4 years. Then I buy it again. Sell it when you hear people whispering on the phone to their wives about it. Or when the shoe shine boy tells you its the best thing ever and you gotta get into it..

$13000 this is just the begin
This guy is about to be a Genius in a few years.
asking someone how many bitcoins they hve is like asking how much money they have in their bank account. Very few would be comfortable answering that question.
yup its like asking to get robbed
And why does this FAKE news media care?
I have only 57% of a bitcoin.
@@stephenoneill2844 There is a guy I know sells bitcoins for like $20, I have a bag full of them, i just cant figure out how to turn them into internet.

For me, he is thinking outside the box, and his life is decentralized, exactly what crypto was invented for.
up, down... who cares. this man is free and in charge of his days... amazing.
best comment here. :)
kudos to you.
how to be in charge of his days when it dropped from 20k to 3k? he can't even afford petrol now for his rv

thats over 300 btc he owns right now all worth over 6x more than he paid, dude is prolly a secret millionaire

Today. May 30th 2019 it’s back up again to 9k. An all year high. Things are looking positive.
Things have been looking positive when the prices as 4k as well, those of us who have been trading in Bitcoin since near the beginning know that Bitcoin has always gone through capitulation cycles about every 2 years. Once we top out at an all time high, there's a large price dump, then the media claims Bitcoin is dead, then the prices surges to a record shattering high again, each cycle ends with an all time high about 15 times higher than the previous high, the next high (which we will hit around 2022) will be at about $300,000.
It always will be positive if poeple understand the way it works ✌🏾
When it hits a million $, he will be the last one laughing.
Cmon tell the whole story...Firstly: he's 80% HODLing and 20% trading, Secondly he started investing in BTC already in 2010, Thirdly they teaches their kids themselves, Fourthly BTC is more than just a currency, Fifthly, its gonna be HUGE
Gotta love this guy..
The journalist misses the point. The man doesn't need an exit plan or end game, he is just LIVING. Something the journalist is obviously unable to comprehend due to his reliance on a 9 to 5 routine. As the saying goes 'Get a job, go to work, get married, have children, follow fashion, act normal, walk on the pavement, watch TV, obey the law, and save for your old age. Now, repeat after me: you are free'.
As soon as everyone started talking about bitcoin, I sold. When hipsters in cafes urge you to download coinbase and buy, that's when you know it's over.
me too!
May 27, 2019 Bitcoin is heading back up from $3,300.00 to $8,900.00 usd
12.6k now lol
2019 June 23, I hope he save some up. We just hit 11000, consolidated to 10700. Bet he's feeling better now. Best wishes for this Family.

It’s good to see it’s not all about the money ,it is also about freedom. Long live Btc
I think it's about the money.
Lol if any cryptocurrency was only about freedom, it would be originally made to trade at a certain price compared to fiat for its whole life (I.e. 1 btc=1000 USD) without the chance for movement. This is the only way it will become popular as such a tool.
That is 50% of the concept!
long live.

"Normal schools prepares kids for the past, but we prepare our kids for a decentralized future!" Thumbs up ...
I would like to see a vid about him in December 19 and 20. I bet things will be very different
Don’t believe this man he definitely cashed out atleast partly at the top. He is holidaying around the world with his family no chance he is doing on that on homeless money
Sad to hear about his father. Good luck son!
Who noticed 4:34 Didi showing the guy the wall st bubble chart on his laptop 😂😂😂😂
What an amazing story of courage, dedication, wisdom, and family commitment. Brave New World...kudos to them.
BTC hit almost 70k. You can be sure he offloaded some and then re-invested at 18k. That’s pure genius. He escaped slavery. He’s my hero.
some quick math he said lost 60% and he also stated that he lost 500k if you divide 500k by 6 and multiply by 100 and divide by 19k he has around 43/44 btc which is worth 250k usd today
He has lots more, it must be 200+
now at $1.6 million usd!

You know what's an even bigger bubble? The US dollar..keep quantitative easing, see if you don't end up like Zimbabwe.
@BeGood 2Me Thats not the case. QE is not another word for hyperinflation. QE is that the government print more money to buy up stocks people even would not touch with a pole. Those money never get into circulation with the other fiat currencies thats in the market. Its just that the goverment hold more stocks. The problem is that QE is making a market bubble like bitcoin. QE will decrease in the future, and interest rate goes higher that will make the market bubble pop. Another reason to store your wealth in crypto currencies in the future..

@BeGood 2Me You should learn about the M1, M2, M3 money supply. The finances propping up the economy are well-hidden in assets you wouldn't know about. Tage S already surmised it quite well. For more information, check out Mike Maloney on CZcams.
Apparently when the presenter pressured didi to come clean as to how much he had in btc. He said he lost $500k and said his portfolio was down 60%. That means, his total investment was around $833k. Because $500k = 60% of $833k. Therefore, his portfolio at time of interview was worth roughly $333k. After cross checking, $333k /$833=40%. I think his poertfolio has since dropped further.
Bitcoins today is 50.000 dollars, so how much does he have today?
Price will start skyrocket in 2019
Hope you took your own advice

HAHAHAHA love his flip flops and Kimono but aside from 20-20 unkind hindsight ... my laughter that is :) A Big HELLO and question ... something to really think about??? besides all the miners shutting down 100% if BTC dips below $2K ??!! A QUESTION on Crypto Market Cap. IF Bitcoin goes to
I first got involved in bitcoin in 2009 when nobody knew about it. At that time it was worth only around 0.1 cent each. You could buy 10 bitcoins with a single penny.
It gradually increase year after year to around 1000$ in early 2017.
So far we did it all without any advertising, media mention, or marketing strategy. Just a bunch of computer nerds and libertarians who want to challenge the status quo and poke the powers that shouldn't be in the eye.
Than suddenly something very weird started to happen: the media started to talk about Bitcoin ad nauseum. That brought Bitcoin out of the closet, but it also invited countless wanna be speculator and kewl high school kid into Bitcoin. They all wanted to buy it without understanding what Bitcoin is. They all think it's some sort of speculative asset, an investment vehicle... it's not.
The media is responsible for the bitcoin bubble and roller coaster of 2017.
Bitcoin is now worth about 3500$, or almost 4x what it was worth before the crazy media bubble started out.
And you think Bitcoin is down?
We are only shaking off all the wannabe speculators who bought into bitcoin without understanding it.
I think Bitcoin will remain at current levels, or even drop a little for the rest of 2019. Than it might take off again.
@@HybridGlobalCitizen
Bitcoin was at 1000$ in early 2017. And there was plenty of miners involved. Why would you think that miners will all quit if it gets below 2000$?
The only ones quitting now are the ones who started mining during the 2017 hype.
For the record, if every single Bitcoin miners where to shut down tomorrow, I could mine Bitcoin on my laptop. Yes, my little laptop could validate all of the transactions of the entire world. And I would reap insane profits too. But that's not going to happen.
@@HybridGlobalCitizen I was mining when Bitcoin was barely worth 10 coins per penny. Plenty of people were mining when it was worth 1000$ per coin.
What on earth makes you think every miner will quit if it gets below 2000$?
If every miner turns off his ASICs tomorrow I could mine Bitcoin on my laptop and earn 24,000$ every 10 minutes. (12 coin per 10 minutes x 2000$).
So your fears are not based in reality.

i think at least the kids need an education in something..even if its homeschooling. learning skills for the future that might help them. always need to plan ahead regardless of the situation!
he answered that question many people didn't go to school and they can manage their lifes better than you and me trust me
@@jonnah0 im aware he answered that question..still seems outlandish. people have gone from rich to poor. skills are important in any situation because if you know how to make money even in difficult situations, you'll always have something to go back to and make a decent living. once he's dead, is he still going to be managing their lives? if they're dependent on him, they wont last long in the real world. trust me, knowledge is important. if he's teaching them something, then cool. but if he's just keeping them away from education in general, that's a stupid idea.
ecch_1000 They don’t teach skills in schools...the world is a much better teacher.
Every few decades it's Tulip mania all over again
ohhhhh look, I found another of those tulip mania experts
Aditya Jaiswal I thought the same thing!
Every bitcoin halvening. Look into it.
You're going to kick yourself for making dumb tulip comparison comments on CZcams instead of buying some in a few years time when it's well over 100k, lol.
@@juanh6334 Yes, BTC and Tulip bulbs are very different things.
He's a speculator not investor.
haha
This man is a role model for anyone and everyone getting into this space. Do I agree BTC is goin to be the ultimate winner? No. But DD will still make more money in the next 5 years than anyone not in the crytpo game. Why? Because he and his wife are focused on the long term, not short term gains.
who where these so called "experts" that you asked about the price of Bitcoin not appreciating significantly in the near future?

The only analogy that comes to mind is selling all of your stuff, flying to Vegas, and putting everything on red at roulette.
