Crypto (Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.)

But do whatever you want man. If you're cool with fascism because you're scared your crypto "earnings" are at risk based on a few random comments by non-elected officials, trying to reason with you is about as productive as trying to convince an average Trump voter who is also motivated by irrational fears.

[spurraider21]

And saying bitcoin is mainly used by money launderers and terrorists etc alongside trying to pass legislation that would immediately without the ability to correct anything turn you into a criminal is not the same as them changing the speed limit and me being able to slow down and be fully compliant.

The similar analogy would not be them changing the speed limit but saying anyone who has a current license would need a brand new license that’s functionally not attainable by the average person like me.
the bolded literally cannot happen. section 9 of the US constitution says that Ex Post Facto laws cannot be passed, meaning your past acts cannot not be criminally charged if they werent criminal at the time those acts were made. if a law was passed, everybody would have notice of the new law and can take steps to be in compliance with the law.

how does your analogy work. are they passing a law that says you, DPG, can no longer buy or sell bitcoin?

That’s not at all what’s happening and you’ve missed the entire point of what I’ve said and my concerns. Again, I’ve only ever voted dem (don’t care what you believe) and it’s Warrens and Biden’s authoritarian behavior towards crypto that’s my issue.

And quite frankly I’m appalled at so many Dems like you who give it a pass because you’re either ignorant of the issue or because you don’t personally like or care about bitcoin (hence your snide judgmental remarks towards it)

Right is right and wrong is wrong imo in things like this

No. This is with regards to those of “us” that run home nodes and them being classified as money transmitters

[Spurminator]

Such a ridiculous leap to go from "These people want more scrutiny on crypto" to "They're going to make me a criminal" but this is exactly the kind of sensationalist bullshit that's been fed to gullible people for the past ten years and put us where we are.

[ChumpDumper]

I cited multiple items that illustrate a wide range of rampant lies and misconceptions regarding all the types of data used and the faulty studies and issues. I made my point.All you did was add to my numbers then attempt to compare them to the GDP.


You, if you’re going to make accusations and cite data have the obligation to have done thorough research to make sure the data is accurate.I have no reason to doubt the government numbers since you added to them.

You made the specific claim that the numbers in the specific case I brought up were debunked. Great. Post the revised numbers.

[ChumpDumper]

No. This is with regards to those of “us” that run home nodes and them being classified as money transmitters

You transmit Bitcoin?

[Blake]

Theres no one with a brain that would read our interaction and come out of thinking you were right or were doing well or your arguments as a whole are holding up. I presented numerous examples that illustrate my point but you are you and try to play online games and semantics and troll

Not buying it buddy. No one is other than your little crew here.

But again, good news is we dont know each other, will never be around each other and we dont have to care about each others opinions. You can live your life and I can live mine and that’s great and wish you nothing but the best my friend.

Meanwhile my $25K in Shiba Inu has net slightly negative for 2+ days now, still waiting to breakeven to re-diversity, :pctoss doge also struggling, but etherum and solana outperforming bitcoin today. Of course, I don't currently have any money in either of those two, my unlucky streak continues.

My only real opportunity to sell the shib at a slight profit was thus far was at 8am this morning, but I bought what I thought was a dip and fairly low and was expecting more like at least a 3% gain by now. FML.

no doubt i'm getting minimum 25k+ in btc when the money comes in by next Tuesday if it's still under 100k.

This thread should honestly be stickied until this next November (2025). That's probably roughly when the next bear run starts given historical trends.

There's a pretty iconic pattern of BTC and altcoins that's a four seasons, four years, type of deal regardless of whether the Dem or GOP candidate gets elected. 2013, 2017, 2021... 2025...?! Most likely.

Nov of election year to Nov of year after election year - Summertime for Crypto
Nov of year after election year to Nov of midterm year - Fall for Crypto
Nov of midterm year to Nov of year before election year - Winter for Crypto
Nov of year before election year to Nov of election year - Springtime for Crypto

[Millennial_Messiah]

:lol wasting $25k on meme coins

In 2017 and especially 2021 all of the mainstream meme coins far surpassed bitcoin as long as you sell when it's at or near peak, obviously you don't know when peak is but if there's a massive bull run starting to plateau then you sell... obviously with altcoins you kind of have to keep close track daily not just weekly or longer term like with bitcoin.

[Millennial_Messiah]

if shib even goes back up to .000025+ even with a teeny tiny profit I'm selling, though given my luck that's when it'll have a bull run.

I just need to diversify again from here on out.

[Millennial_Messiah]

bought at .00002472 a couple days ago when it appeared to be a solid dip. and that was after I thought I'd shot myself in the foot by buying cardano when it wasn't even dipped much but then it went back up later that evening and I sold at a slight profit, of course it was naturally my luck that it went up even more later that night

[Millennial_Messiah]

Please do sticky this thread, for at least a year imo. Could be the biggest crypto bull year will ever see. After this coming year bull run subsequent bull runs will probably be more modest due to the maturity of btc.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Doing much better now. Was able to break even on SHIB even though it has been struggling. Still have $2k in SHIB, $5k in DOGE, $5K in ETH, $10K in BTC now. Much more diversified. 22K total. Was also able to capitalize and make about a dinner-for-two's worth of profit even after buy/sell fees on this evening's XRP spike. I'm not sold on XRP for the future, but saw the spike and was confident it was a good quick buy and sell and it was.

What do you guys think DPG21920 would be a good crypto portfolio? in terms of ratios of BTC to other crypto, which altcoins, etc. altcoins that have a track record in 2021 and/or 2017 vs how much should be invested in risky new altcoins like Pepe which doesn't have a track record like that.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Definitely be one of the last people to buy BTC before it eclipses the six digit mark and never goes back down.

Although historical cyclical trends would have BTC going down to around 70-80k at some point in 2026 and 2027 before, in theory, the next bull run.

[Millennial_Messiah]

It’s a personal decision on what to invest in but IMO if you are in this space, BTC should be at least 50% of your portfolio. This is a longer term investment for most bitcoin is the one thing de-risked the most with the clearest path to success.

After that splitting the other 40-50% on other majors like ETH/SOL makes some sense and maybe 10% on the true memes if thats what you want to do and are capable. Most people trying to chase/trade/rotate will get their ass handed to them IMO unless you’re a real trader which Im guessing none of us are.


But Im risk adverse which is why I choose bitcoin and I think if you go back and read some of the thread from now over 3 years ago, much of what was said has held up quite well.

*But I personally do not invest in alt coins - not knocking them, just not my thing* and at these levels you need to be paying attention. Ultimately in a perfect world you would have already been positioned vs going all crazy now. But of course there’s still some opportunities but there will be corrections whether it’s from here or higher.
And as always, you can never go wrong taking profit when things are up like this. Both for safety but also peace of mind and security.

Good points.

Alt coins are an enigma. It's been proven that they have a tiny window of a massive spike but you have to sell when you start to see it going down and be willing to not hold out for bigger gains that may not come for 4+ years. And then there are the true meme alt coins like pepe who have no history. The major alts like doge and shib with some history are decent and have higher potential, they are definitely risk assets but you can gain a lot more money if you're looking to turn a decent nest-egg into "fuck-you" money. The major non-BTC coins i.e. ETH/SOL I agree but I'm not sure about 40%. I do agree that BTC should be minimum 50% and for me it's that on the nose right now actually at this moment.

I didn't have the money in 2013 or 2017 and in 2021 I was going through the divorce, so i couldn't really touch crypto either of those years unfortunately.

I've known for awhile that crypto is no good in the "fall" and "winter" years i.e. 2014-2015, 2018-19 and 2022-23. Basically around six months before the BTC halvings is when crypto starts to become bullish again which is typically the Oct/Nov before leap/election years.

[Millennial_Messiah]

I just flipped all my remaining SHIB (Shiba Inu) in exchange for Cardano (ADA). I'm officially done with Shiba Inu. It's a newer, inferior Dogecoin with only a uni-modal late 2021 peak pattern, rather than the more favorable bimodal or earlier peak you look for. Cardano had that healthy peak pattern in 2021 and it's nowhere near its ATH (about a quarter of its 2021 primary ATH in Fall 2021, and a third of its 2021 second-mode ATH in May 2021) and it's exhibiting solid, consistent weekly gains with distinct patterns of about two solid spikes per week.

About $2k. Cost me about 20 bucks -give or take- to make the transfer, but it'll be well worth it. SHIB stinks. Also buying the mini ADA dip was profitable last time and now I'm buying into another mini ADA dip. I would actually like to get even more money into ADA before it re-claims $1.

[Millennial_Messiah]

I'm thinking XRP may be kinda overbought for now. It's already close to its 2021 ATH (spring, in this case) now, which is a bit alarming for a less-known altcoin, and the overall bull market summer year of the cycle has essentially just begun. It did very well yesterday, the best performer amongst the mainstream altcoins by a good margin, but I wouldn't be too bullish on it in the short to medium term.

[Millennial_Messiah]

A month ago would have been great
This post was on 10/20/2021.

A month ago? Well, ideally in 2020 when we had all the time in the world to stew about it, wear masks in our cars and homes etc. But, anytime from early-spring 2021 through early-spring 2022 was generally a bad time to buy.

if you "hopped on the wagon" on November 4th, 2024, or any time in the two and a half or so odd years prior, you're doing quite well.


Fabbs says

XRP Ripple.

*If evil SEC corruption prevails in their bogus lawsuit then it drops. :depressed

If case is decided by merit as it should be, when XRP wins it's gonna pop.

XRP did terrible from this post forward up until yesterday, actually. This post was in October 2021.

[Millennial_Messiah]

And what a great decision it was to trade all my SHIB for ADA, biggest regret is only having $2k in ADA overnight as it just spiked another 10%.

Don't expect a big weekend bump because weekends are weekends, so hopefully i'll be able to get a lot more in when another $25k money comes in and is processed this Monday, i'm strongly considering putting 10k in ADA and another 10k in BTC (provided they're still under $1 and $100k respectively) and doing whatever with the other 5k, maybe buy a little more ETH because it's been low but idk.

mainly I'm confident ADA will at least reach its ATH sooner than later which is still about three times its current amount. compare that with something like Tezos which has actually been one of the few coins to have worse value after the 2021 bull run became bearish in 2022, than before 2021.

[Millennial_Messiah]

I'm a little less bullish on ETH than everyone else is because it's not too far from its ATH and it tends to lag behind BTC and is more stable than say a DOGE, so i tend to think the returns will be a bit plateaued there this return cycle comparatively, but could be wrong.

Doge is kind of unique for an altcoin in that it's the first and top meme coin ever and Elon Musk is really pushing it hard, I do really expect >$1 doge for much of 2025

[Millennial_Messiah]

I'm not sure I like Solana too much either this cycle. Seems to be pushing up too high too fast.

[Millennial_Messiah]

ADA obviously was a great buy, but fuck me for not getting 100k+ in seriously. 2k?? What a joke.

hopefully it goes under $1 one more time briefly at least

[Millennial_Messiah]

Fuck me for not putting a million bucks into cardano last night when I KNEW, i even posted it in this thread, that it was about to skyrocket.

fuck me.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Doubled up on bitcoin cash (BCH) but it was like 50 bucks profit. fml. I just profit took on that because I think it's a dumb long term asset...

Maybe that profit can buy me a hamburger or a dozen eggs in this economy.

[Millennial_Messiah]

BTC itself is kinda down a bit. Kind of where I need it to sit all weekend so I can whale on Monday when the wire money (please don't fuckup this time, bank) comes in. 1.3M. 1.5m total by next Friday if things go right, that's my nest egg.

I'm thinking of doing

$700K or $800K USD in BTC (roughly 7 or 8 BTC)
$300k in ADA
$200k in DOGE
$200k in ETH (i'm just not as bullish on it based on history)
$100k in other various coins spread around.

[Millennial_Messiah]

AVAX had a big day too today after a few horrid days in a row.

Bullish for the 2024-25 bull season on:

BTC (naturally)
ADA
DOGE
BCH (but that one is difficult to time properly)

Middling on:

ETH
SOL (it's been following ETH pretty much to a T lately)
XRP (not sure it has much more room to grow)
AVAX

Not particularly bullish on:

SHIB
XTZ
Litecoin
Any of the new altcoins like PEPE.... you'll likely see one or two of them have a massive 2025 while the others don't really get off the ground.



With Elon having a good deal of government power I'm going to take an educated guess that Dogecoin will cannibalize the market share of Shiba Inu to a large degree. Effectively, Shiba Inu serves as an alternate ethereum cash coin, and i'm kind of medium-bearish (relatively, at least) on ethereum, but we'll see.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Oh, my.......... DOGE.

currently struggling around 96K like yesterday, but it'll rebound

there was just a mass profit taking amongst a ton of smaller (i.e. citizen) Trump-bump short term buyers who got their ~30% they wanted when it was just south of 100k for a couple days, but it's not the whales that are selling.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Ethereum up though. One thing you can count on this bull cycle, is it's unlikely both will be simultaneously down for very long. If they do, it's the end of the bull cycle, but that's not for another 11-13 months.

I did jump on this stupid bubble for ETH and it's been a 28% ROI in just the short time I grabbed it on 11/6

i posted that on 11/4 in the political election night thread, ETH was a buy at ~$2400 regardless of who wins.

i sold my eth/doge/cardano at a profit this morning and reinvested into btc, and have still lost some, but have decreased my average buy cost that way so when it inevitably goes back up i'll definitely profit. It's been a bad day for sure but it's a "healthy pullback".

[Millennial_Messiah]

one thing about the short term dip is that when my next wad of money from the bank comes in I can re-invest and further lower my buy in, i'll probably re diversify too now that eth/doge/cardano have gone down a lot too since I sold those

my tezos/litecoin have gone slightly down, I think uni is a good buy, I'd consider putting a tiny amount in a stupid pure meme coin like pepe just to see what it does in 2025 and sell at around its zenith when it starts to drop.

[Millennial_Messiah]

I've lost almost $1k today even despite selling all my non-bitcoin coins for a decent gain. Fortunately I'm 30 and don't have panic attacks over one bad market day.

chances are we'll see 97-98k by tomorrow or wednesday. No trading on thursday.

[Millennial_Messiah]

I just need this money that I wired to myself to be in my crypto buy account asap ideally before btc re-spikes. Grrrrr I wired it on Friday it shouldn't be this long, still showing as pending from the bank's side.

It's almost a lock that when people are begging for a stock to hit a mark that it'll come close and then drop. My guess is $85k by Monday.

Yall are on way too low of timeframes. I mean, kudos to you if you can actually trade that low of time frame and do well, but the point is if you think its going higher (whatever you like BTC, SOL, ETH, DOG SH*T COIN) stop trying to rotate so much and stop worrying so much about comparative performance.

But will it hit 100k? When?

But will it hit 100k? When?

And why would I stick a dollar on it now at 95k if I think it'll drop to 70k first?

Those are things you need to answer for yourself. Do I think it hits 100K sometime between now and say 6 months? I think so but of course can be wrong. The point is at some point, when investing, you ideally got in from a bit lower and already positioned for this and don’t have to micro trade every single day.


Many people thought at 70k that “why would I put a dollar in when I can buy at 50K” and that didnt work out so good did it? You just dont know. Thats why many just dollar cost average and buy a little bit at each interval.

Just like a lot of people bought last cycle at 65K thinking it was going to 100K for sure and it nuked back to 16K and they sold for a loss. If they would have been longer term in mind, they are now at the 100K area that originally thought no?

Again, if you are a professional trade with a legit system and sophisticated algorithms then by all means, do what you want. The point is that MAJORITY will lose, despite maybe being directionally right (i.e. bitcoin to 100k) by doing this.

You can take my advice or leave it; dont care. Just my 2c and observation

I generally agree with these posts. I would have bought at 69k on election day regardless of not knowing the outcome, it's not like it was going to nuke downward far at least not more than short term if Harris had won. But the bank stifled me.

Will it go up to 100k in the next month or two, and up to >150k from there before the end of the bull run.... absolutely, otherwise there is something seriously wrong and crypto is officially broken. It won't grow by as much % as in 2017 or even 2021 because of the very nature of the halving and diminishing returns.

[Millennial_Messiah]

It's almost a lock that when people are begging for a stock to hit a mark that it'll come close and then drop. My guess is $85k by Monday.

It's not going back down to anywhere near 70K again, never again, well maybe it may bottom out around 70-80k during the next bear phase, 2026-2027. That's the way the cycle works, when it transitions to bear season during midterm election year it falls to roughly the all time high of the crest 1.5 cycles before said bear run.

Yeah I did CDs when interest rates were well above 5%. It doesn't make much sense to buy bonds when interest rates are low. You're literally succumbing to inflation.

Btw I don't think dogecoin is dogshit, it's the bitcoin of altcoins and Musk is a very powerful human and happens to be dogecoin's number one fan, he even named the newest federal bureaucracy after it. It's definitely one you have to time though and be willing to sell and profit take rather than hold when the bull run appears to be tapering downward.

Something like Pepe is guaranteed to be this year's 2021 doge/shib where it has about a week of 10x-fold and then crashes quickly back to earth.

It's not going back down to anywhere near 70K again, never again, well maybe it may bottom out around 70-80k during the next bear phase, 2026-2027. That's the way the cycle works, when it transitions to bear season during midterm election year it falls to roughly the all time high of the crest 1.5 cycles before said bear run.

I mean, it absolutely can go back to 70s again. Will it? Not sure, but it would not be shocking

[Millennial_Messiah]

I mean, it absolutely can go back to 70s again. Will it? Not sure, but it would not be shocking

It will, yes, in 2026-27, absolutely, mirroring previous cycles where the low point of the cycle is roughly the previous cycle's top point.

If you look at every historical chart 2025 is analogous to the mega bull years like 2021, 2017, and 2013, while by 2026 it's likely we'll be bearish again on crypto like 2022, 2018, 2014.

If it mirrors previous cycles and factoring in the halving effect, BTC will teeter between roughly 200K and 250K between about May to November 2025 and then fall steadily after that and at some point by around Mid-2026 reach a low point around the previous ATH which was 67k. Somewhere in the 65K-79K ballpark would be my guess for the low point of the next bear run.

Made a hundred bucks on Dogecoin quicksell tonight, could have done better. :bang

[Millennial_Messiah]

Looks like BTC/crypto survived this little dip, we'll see for sure in the morning. Time for me to get some shut eye after 12 hours of nonstop hiking/roller coaster riding (Fiesta Texas)/eating / crypto trading.

It definitely passes the time whenever I've got to wait for something. Though, with the flash pass I don't have to really wait in lines at theme parks.

I burned over 2,400 calories today just from walking, scored 70 "heart points" on google fit and logged over 17,000 steps. And that's with me not taking my phone on any rides and me sitting down to eat 3 times.

Today has been fun.

no 100K before Turkey Day, but it's coming

[Millennial_Messiah]

ADA is still dirt cheap at the moment and has the highest ceiling among alt coins imho.

Selling a kidney and going all in on ADA seems like a viable option tbh.

Dang, if you bought on the date of this post, you'd just barely now be back up to half a kidney. :lol

ADA is a great buy, but buying at the end of a bull run is a bad mistake

[Millennial_Messiah]

NFTs are in their infancy but their popularity is going to definitely cause the ETH price to skyrocket in the coming years, along with 2.0 like you said. so many companies recently have announced that they will begin taking ETH as payment, visa is building a payment network on the block chain, etc. lot of good stuff to come in the next couple years. ETH will probably never overtake BTC but i am very bullish that it will hit 10k-20k in the next 2-3 years :tu

Three years, one month and one week to the day since this post, ethereum is heading back up but nowhere near five figures.

I'm bullish it will happen in 2025, but it's far from a guarantee

[Millennial_Messiah]

ETH hits a new ATH today...you love to see it. :tu

$20k by EOY 2022 imho
Too bad 2022 was the year of the bear. :lol

the difference between 2025 and 2021 was imo, interest rates were too low in 2021, with today's interest rates having room to fall we're probably in for a more steady year, not to mention a pro-crypto presidential administration.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Disagree, ETH is already at a point where more is being burned than is being minted, thus it is a scare asset with limited supply. once the 2.0 upgrade hits in 2022 its really going to pump, so while i am no expert by any means, in my opinion the time to buy is now while it's still below 5k. in a year it will be ~20k, imho

lols three years later

[Millennial_Messiah]

Entire portfolio is red :lol seems were in a bit of a pullback after massive gains (which was to be expected at some point)

Is this just FUD around the crypto provision in the infrastructure bill? BTC under 60k after hitting ATH of 69k recently and ETH is getting close to under 4k for the first time this months.

Hope yall are buying the dip and holding. Diamond hands here
Unfortunately this dip (Nov 16, 2021) was instead the beginning of a massive canyon that bottomed for 2 years and only starting upswinging again last November on a small level and on a much greater level this month especially post election.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Do any retailers that matter accept crypto besides Starbucks and money changers?

I remember in the mid 2010s before covid D. Dental in the DFW area was accepting bitcoin for payment, not sure about other cryptos, I'm pretty sure businesses aren't ever going to accept memecoins. Bitcoin, ethereum, maybe in some industries something like cardano, ripple, solana. But the dog coins and frog coins, you can forget about it.

:lol the SafeMoon and squid coin stuff from 2021 was hilarious, as was people getting snookered by FTX instead of going with a reliable way to trade crypto.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Yea man it's the perfect time to buy. I just got some more matic and ice. Thinking of dropping some on eth too.

:lol buying crypto on November 16, 2021

[Millennial_Messiah]

Healthy and expected dip happening. Buying opportunity.

:lol healthy two to three year "dip" where you're still way in the red if you bought on this date


Maybe if you hodled instead of panic sold in early 2022 or something, you might see green by spring 2025

[Millennial_Messiah]

Why did no one post about expecting the dip before the dip?

They did in a couple posts, they said don't buy at ATH wait for the next dip

It's unfortunate that this dip was the final dip up until basically Trump got re-elected.

[Millennial_Messiah]

The excitement of a giant run-up cloud's judgement and makes us think that it will never end :lol But yeah, historically, when it runs up at such a fast pace in a short time period, there's always a pullback. Just keep hoping for higher lows each time.
Lesson learned, the "higher lows" operate on a four-year cyclical basis

[Millennial_Messiah]

Come on ETH, keep running!

It dieded.

[Millennial_Messiah]

should have bought up the bitcoin last year when it was ~15k and then sold it last month when it was 65k. fml.

Awwwwwwww..... painful memories from 3 years ago. This post essentially marked the end of the last crypto bull run and transition to 2 years of bear season.


I look back at age 27 and I was so much more focused on other things, like hating on Joe Biden, fighting the vax, getting divorced while safeguarding my assets, holding down 4-6 W2s (actually less by this point), figuring out whether or not I was going to get my beloved car back after hitting that big deer in Illinois (I did...), hoping the burn scars from airbag from said incident went away (they did), trying to sell 2 older cars, buying up the FJB paraphernalia, just how good can Micah Parsons and Trevon Diggs be...?, fighting democrats on social media, fighting facebook bans, etc than crypto... but yeah, I called it.

Now, November 2024 is here, and I'm in this to win this, this time, baby. :toast

[Millennial_Messiah]

'Should have bought'. You think so?

Also, aren't you the one that is always hating on people playing the stock market
Yup, I'm anti-stock, was in 2021 and always will be. A lower Dow Jones and lower (but still positive) GDP is healthy for price control and preventing inflation.

It seems like, similar to with gold, that when the DOW ticks up, crypto ticks down. 2022 was the exception that was a wholly stagflationary year for everything.

[Millennial_Messiah]

As of right now everything seems to be down 15-30%


No biggie, just a nice sale to load up before the end of the year :tu

:lmao

[Millennial_Messiah]

Crypto may be finished

Should have seen the writing on the wall when my wife bought Solana


If the Fed really does raise rates and there's a need for liquidity this stuff gonna tank like no other. Which is ironic, given a main selling point was protection from fed actions :lol
Stagflation 2022. The consequence of dumping Covid onto the world intentionally from the Wuhan lab, and couping out our incumbent President and instead electing a senile old fuck and a cackling camel witch instead.

Fortunately, we're aboutta clean house. :toast and that man is back in town. Yep, meet the new boss, same as the old boss. ;)


Just a dip, just like last year.

A nice, spiffy, 2-3 year dip. :toast

[Millennial_Messiah]

Good news, it appears I timed my Uniswap selloff at just the right time, that's heading down now... bad news I only bought in at $1k instead of much more... but that's the bank's fault because i ordered way more money and they told me it would transfer yesterday afternoon... I should have 7-8 btc and a bunch in other good coins by now... bought the dip... screw merrill lynch. screw them. also, Dogecoin went back up to 0.41 after I sold it off to buy chainlink seeing as doge has been struggling today... should know by now doge is chronically a late-rally performer. If you see dogecoin going up substantially expect a crypto dip in the next couple days.

Bad news, the bank keeps stifling me on limiting my wire transfer, I should have gotten all 1.3M in yesterday but they said I could only do 112k... BS... fml. If the bank weren't such assholes I'd have started before the election and profited easy six figures by now and the most predictable bull market in history tbh.

Analyst Notes: Noted on-chain analytics firm CryptoQuant stated that Bitcoin's cycle was still far from the "Extreme Bull" phase, suggesting potential for further growth.It added that price drawdowns would eventually follow, as history has shown, allowing players who missed jumping in earlier another shot.

.....And back down. Massive psychological barrier around 100K and it's the profit takers. I don't see it going under 90k again though at least not until the next bear run/crypto winter of 2026 & 2027.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Next big boom will probably be in early to mid January ahead of the inauguration. I expect BTC to hover in the 90ks range, eth hovering in the middle to upper 3k, altcoins going up and down etc until then, wouldn't expect much of a big shift either direction before Christmas but some choppiness for sure.

It barely hit its 2021 ATH though. I mean, you can say similar stuff about XRP, but that one has already massively eclipsed 2021. You'd expect a much bigger bull run for 2024-25 compared with 2020-21. If it doesn't even hit a distinct ATH in 2025 that is bad news long term.

Well it's not surprising, SOL has always been a shitty network and homeless mans ETH. I'm surprised it's even as much as it is at this point

Bitcoin is crypto gold, ethereum is crypto silver (it's more useful than bitcoin kind of like silver in industry, and like 2/3 of other crypto-related projects run on ether/ethereum) but pretty much everything else is a shitshow outside of super quadrennial bull runs like the one we'll probably have from like Jan up to a sell off in about November 2025.

Very few crypto coins, not counting the actual stablecoins, actually had decent security through 2022/2023 and 2018/2019, i.e. the crypto winter part of the cycle.

I'd wait a few days maybe a week to buy this dip. There was always going to be a pretty substantial dip after btc first hit six figures the first time.

[Millennial_Messiah]

I just went back and checked. I bought 8.46 SOL for $200 on 6/22/21.

yup that's right, Solana was one of the few coins that didn't have a bimodal 2021 peak/bull run, pretty much nothing in spring and summer and then EXPLODED in the fall 2021 before crashing for a couple years.

So given that historical trend, it could be lagging behind and do substantially better in the second half of 2025 than the first, before the coming crypto winter next Nov-Dec.

LTC has indeed spiked pretty dramatically in the past week or so, up to over $135 from about $91 last week.

[Millennial_Messiah]

LTC need to less than triple up to re-assume its ATH of around $347, and it's a solid mid tier useful altcoin so I think it's pretty much a lock that LTC will hit over $500-600 at some point in 2025 during the peak of the bull run, but the spike won't last too long so sell it while it's hot.

I'll have to check. It was before the Walmart hoax spike. I missed cashing out on that by like two hours since I didn't have alerts set up. It's little enough money that I haven't minded and don't mind sitting on it to see what happens. I've got more in ETH which is just about back to my personal ATH percentage wise.

The Walmart Litecoin hoax was September 2021, so I'm guessing you bought all your crypto in mid-2021. Yeah, what a painful time to have been a buyer.

They kept requiring additional documents and selfies for no good reason and now they're saying my account won't be unlocked and "verified" (again) until 12/9.

I better get my 250k back + the 2,184 or so I gained on crypto in November, or else i'm getting my lawyers involved, they cost me six figures easily, I tried that wire 2 days before the election and they kept cockblocking me

[Millennial_Messiah]

Robinhood did the same shit in the past to me over a much smaller transaction before. I'm fed up

[Millennial_Messiah]

Of course today wasn't a great day in the market either. Sucks to watch 20k go "poof" in 2 hours. Fortunately wasn't planning to sell today.

Not the best day for bitcoin not the worst, but altcoins including ethereum took a massive hit, pretty much nothing was spared. Doge is actually back below where it was just post election. Solana has not done well at all since the initial election bump. Cardano back under $1. LTC could fall under $100 again. Only really good investment so far aside from Bitcoin is Ripple if you'd bought it just after the election when it was under $1. I don't see that going back under $1 for at least a year or so from now.

[Millennial_Messiah]

I hope Trump jacks up interest rates to Reagan, Nixon era levels tbh. Give smart savers and conservatives/cash buyers a chance and make the establishment run on stocks and their customers to fucking earn their money they put in stocks for a change rather than being able to count on stock gains from Blackrock/Vanguard index funds and establishmentarian shit like that. Stop bailing out bad businesses and stop artificially feeding the dow/stock market. People will bitch and moan about unemployment but a lot of the employment since covid is bounce back bullshit and permanently remote token position bullshit. Get rid of the work visas, get rid of the IT Indian contractors that have been working cushy remote jobs since March 2020 that aren't necessary and were always poor efficiency on the part of the private sector. Lay off at least a quarter of the public sector.

What we need right now is DEFLATION, to REVERSE all of the Covid era policy, now that Covid is both over and pretty much confirmed by most of the general public to be a scam and a hoax. Not just low inflation... we need DEFLATION to reverse the 2020-2023 damage. Strengthen the dollar.

I'm proud to be a bit of a neo-luddite, life was far better before the advance of counterculture and social media bullshit. There have only been a few *good* things to pick out that have *improved* over the past 40-50 years in the USA, like less cigarette smoking, but unfortunately that hasn't really been killed off but largely replaced by hard illegal drugs like marijuana and vaping which is almost as gross as smoking. I'm hoping Obergefell v Hodges is overturned, as well as Citizens v United. Civil unions being a 10th amendment issue okay, i'm fine with that similar to abortion, but gays having equal married filing jointly federal tax breaks as man and woman, i.e. a reproductive couple with kids? Fuck no. Also, eliminate conscriptionary child support or at least standardize it (and make it fully tax deductible) so it's not income based i.e. communist, promoting moocher welfare queens, eliminate alimony, eliminate child tax credit for single parents. Promote school vouchers and eliminate public school property taxes for people who pay tuition to send their kids to private school.

Bull run is taking its course. I see 140-160k ish peak by summer 2025 for bitcoin based on historical trends and halvings and then a dump back into the 50k-70k range in 2026 settling on ~70k by mid to late 2026.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Functional altcoins, even solana are finally doing well again after about a two month slump. Ripple [XRP] is definitely the Trump Coin. Achieved ATH in 2017, completely underperformed in 2021, and looking like it's back to shatter new records for the 2025 bull cycle.

BTC is my one failing. I've always been a most wary investor. I've built houses (with help, of course) with my bare hands. Never trusted the banks beyond as much as I could borrow from them at as close to 0 as possible.

I could have spent 250k on BTC when it was absolutely stupidly cheap and had a bunch of it. Still lose sleep over that. Thanks for coming to my tedtalk.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Well, the Bull market is over it seems, thanks to one Donald J. Trump and his Tariffs.

The thing is, you probably would have sold that 250K of bitcoin before it even got anywhere near even double the value, and you wouldn't have been wrong to do so.

A lot of people (myself included) look back and wonder, but I know if I'd have bought the $1,000 of BTC I considered buying when brands started jumping on the bandwagon for PR (and when that one dude bought a pizza for 10K or whatever it was), I probably would have sold it before it even got to $10K in value, because at that point who's to say it's not going to all tank soon?

There's a reason there's only a handful of BTC billionaires.

[SnakeBoy]

Friend of mine says he bought around 500$ worth of worth of bitcoin when it was sub $1. He doesn't remember the exact details of what he bought but that's his best guess. He also has no idea what he did with them.

Pretty sure he's telling the truth...story is the same every time, he gets mad telling it every time, and then he stares off deep in thought. Naturally, I can't resist occasionally asking "Did you ever buy bitcoin?", as if I had forgotten his story.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Ouch. Bitcoin officially has crashed, this is not a dip (at least not short term) most likely... it fell below 90k and is falling like a rock, down in the 87k range and falling hard.

Elon killed the bull run. Unbelievable.

ChumpDumper

You're so lucky you picked Litecoin out of everything. :lol LTC has been the strangely resilient outlier. Actually completely bucked the trend and went massively UP today.


Most coins are reverting, if not reverted, back to their pre-Election Day / Trump Bump numbers. Solana and even Ethereum are doing terrible. Shitcoin not moving as much because it doesn't have as much room to fall at the moment. Dogecoin fell under .20 even as Elon's DOGE has taken off.

XRP is going down for sure but it's another case of an outlier :lol since it massively overperformed so much and had an unexpected second big spike around the New Year which outperformed the market.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Honestly, who couldn't have predicted that tariffs would hurt Bitcoin and other crypto, considering they already did in early 2018 during the first round of Trump tariffs.


Promises made, promises kept. Except for the Bitcoin/crypto national reserve. That was completely axed by the Trump administration and it was pretty obvious otherwise his company wouldn't have released those shitty memecoins on inauguration day.

Libertarians got their Ross Ulbright sentence commuted/ out of prison, they lost on crypto. Give and take, I guess.

Welp, down goes the bitcoin, under 80k and falling like a rock.

Long live the dollar.

Just didn't think it would happen this early, until about 9 months from now. Trump and Elon Musk are really to blame more than anyone else for this. Trump dumped the crypto and is the most anti-crypto president ever, paired with the fact people got all too giddy about the halving being unusually early in 2024 compared to 2020 or 2016 (spring instead of the usual fall).

Anyone buying this "dip" (not really a dip, just lower than the ATH and about midway through the crash or possibly less) right now will have to wait until at least late 2027 to break even.

Anyone still investing in Bitcoin? Crypto in general? What's your angle?

I still have everything I listed in the OP and also purchased some XRP since then. Long term holding, but probably not investing anymore at this time.

BTC new all time high 111K

[Dirks_Finale]

BTC new all time high 111K

And now back down to 104k :lol

Still volatile as hell. But I do think it's eventually going to 200k.

[Trill Clinton]

Buy bitcoin bitcoin by bitcoin till you own at least 1.

[Darth_Pelican]

118K :wow

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Should be at least 1 more short term crash this summer (typical of summers) before the big fall spike (last hurrah of the bull run, I think 130-160k somewhere in between that is a realistic target in Oct-Nov this year followed by the quintessential cyclical early midterm year hard-crash in 2026 similar to 2022 and 2018).

55-65k target for the lowpoint around next summer or so for btc should be expected based on historical data.

[Trill Clinton]

150-175k EOY is my guess.

[Millennial_Messiah]

150-175k EOY is my guess.

more realistically something like that for the ATH for this quadrennial bull run year (Oct-Nov 2025) but then a pretty sharp down trend from about mid November.

last time you had the combination of black friday timeframe shopping paired with the typical fall economic downturn hitting crypto hard, and all things crypto are 4 year cycles, wouldn't expect different

[Millennial_Messiah]

Stellar Lumens doubled today, but I'd be skeptical. It tends to have sharp ups and quick downs and then a lot of sideways action for months.

[Millennial_Messiah]

My crypto portfolio went up over 50K just since dinner time :wow :wow :wow

Should have bought at $80k BTC/$1800 ETH earlier this spring. :bang


I will say this to temper expectations. I dont expect the bull run to last into 2026 much if at all. Midterm election years are historically crash years for crypto (2014, 2018, 2022) and besides, that's when the bulk of the tariffs/negative effects from the BBB will take into effect, having to replace income tax with tariffs and less income will lead to a bit of an affordability crisis and reduced euphoria and optimism on bitcoin, like 2018 we've seen this movie before, also the fed will have to spike interest rates again to stop the inflation caused by BBB. we saw that sort of thing after 2021 as well.

I'd watch the crypto portfolio like a hawk every day or two and plan to fire sell in Nov this year. About four month left of this quadrennial bull run. I do expect eth to eclipse 5k. The more mainstream altcoins will outperform btc/eth. The memecoins are a crapshoot, wouldn't invest in much of anything, if you have to invest in a memecoin then go with dogecoin because it follows Tesla stock pretty closely, stay away from all the newer memecoins that can crap out at any time. That TRUMPcoin is hot garbage, along with frog coin, shit-a inu (gone down by 2/3 since the first mode of the bullrun, cat coin, the other dog coin, cow coin, penguin coin, chances are if it's associated with an animal it's a very volatile shitcoin that you should stay the hell away from.

unless you've been HODLing btc/altcoins for a very long time at a very low buy in, I'd try to sell just about everything this fall at or near peak and then jump back in when it inevitably bottoms out between next summer and the summer of 2027. Expect a BTC drop to about 55-65k some point mid to late 2026 following previous patterns, with worse prospects for altcoins and memecoins/shitcoins. Late fall 2027 expect crypto to pick back up again. The four year cyclical pattern is unavoidable.

[Millennial_Messiah]

What a bull run

Mostly for altcoins to this point though. I hit big on Tezos investing it at about .6 and getting a 47% gain on it (re-invested $85k in XTZ two days ago) as it shot up today like functional altcoins tend to. I'm a little pissed (mention to ChumpDumper (https://www.spurstalk.com/forums/member.php?u=153)) that I sold my stack of LTC ($170k worth) only about halfway up its big move upward today (granted 10% is nowhere near what Tezos did today, but I'm more than a bit pissed I only had a half stack ~85k of XTZ when I had had 170k in it just last week). Compound is still underpriced and is overdue for its big rally anytime now. Cardano, too, is still under $1, matter of fact still under $.90, get it while you can.

Xrp i'm honestly not sure of. The legislations passed earlier this week seem to be good for the overall bottom line of ripple but it seems to be a sell the news time event so far after the first big day. It's already eclipsed its ATH and not so sure it isn't pretty close to its market ceiling.

Ethereum has been good for me, ethereum classic even better. I've gained >30% on it in the past week and it isn't anywhere near half its realistic target (not counting the May 2021 shock ATH, it had other solid peaks in 2021 that should be realistic targets for altcoins lower ranked than XRP/ADA/ETH etc in 2025).

Other solid altcoins like Avax and Chainlink have been performing nicely and are still a bit undervalued imho.

I'm completely staying away from memecoins this go-round except for a small amount of DOGE.

ChumpDumper having you been HODLing the LTC since 2021 still? I'm not sure it'll ever go beyond like $140-150 though.

[Millennial_Messiah]

You drive a Toyota Camry

And? It gets 53MPG-ish and is better for the environment than some shitty sports race car or gas guzzling luxury car. And isn't a target to get stolen, nor is a maintenance headache.

What's wrong with a Toyota Camry?

[Millennial_Messiah]

If I woke up with thirty-three billion bucks one day be it from crypto or administering premium quality fellatio to an oligarch, I'd still drive a Toyota. I'd probably buy a Tundra truck for hauling, a Highlander XLE AWD hybrid for family, and maybe a Prius or something as a backup car.

I'm functionalist to the bone though.

[Millennial_Messiah]

SEC v Ripple case dismissed


let's see if XRP goes up or it becomes sell the news


probably goes back up to kiss the $3.5-3.6 ATH then crash within days to 2.7 due to profit taking and typical late August slumping


September to November looks very bullish though, i'd be surprised if all the major high cap and mid cap functional altcoins (not memecoins) don't at least eclipse their ath's by a decent amount before the long bear market starts early next year right on schedule.

[Millennial_Messiah]

i really need COMP to moon again at least short squeeze up to like .60 so I can sell out of most of it and save up to buy the next dip. I used COMP at its bottom ~$45 (it doesn't really go under that in low points in bull runs including this year) as a hedge buy until other stuff looked more promising again, so i'd like a nice clean 10-50% short jump on COMP even if it drops back down (similar to what happened with Tezos one Saturday last month) so i can buy the next dip. I see only 1 more big dip coming before the peak of bull season Sept-Nov.

[Millennial_Messiah]

i have about $850k in COMP (half my net worth) temporarily, it's currently worth around $960k but if it could even get back to its June high i'd love to yell "yahtzee!" and profit take that.

I can definitely see a >145K BTC, >5K ETH, $4.50-5.50 XRP, $2.00-$2.50 ADA peak this bull run

Litecoin... might be overbought for now. It tends to be a maverick coin and I'd wait for a dip there for now

UNI, COMP, XTZ should be good buys too. LINK and AVAX too to a lesser extent.

I dont follow Solana because it carries too many shitcoins and has a less than stellar system but I would expect a new ATH for SOL too, just not quite so bullish there

[Millennial_Messiah]

I dont see a hyper bullish late August though. One more big dip. Its just not buying season. Look out for going towards second week of Sept to start the meat three months of the bull run.

[Millennial_Messiah]

150-175k EOY is my guess.

Im thinking on the lower end of that in Nov and then a bit of a dip in December before a bigger longterm dip into bear territory in Q1 2026


2026/2027 should be prime bear territory as per cyclical par. should see <70k btc, <2.5k eth, <$2.5 xrp, <$.60 ada, <$60 ltc et al. by about next spring.

[Darth_Pelican]

ETH toying with $4,000. Hopefully it can break through.

[Millennial_Messiah]

ETH toying with $4,000. Hopefully it can break through.

Its held steady over 4K for twenty-four hours now!!!

I still need compound to yahtzee (short squeeze) more. I want to sell it down to about a half mil worth and save til the late August dip and buy back some other stuff a little lower (ideally $170k or $200k more in UNI sub-$9, maybe at least $85k of ETC sub-$20 which has been performing very well, maybe selloff ADA and XRP at a low profit, they'll dip back to .70ish and under $3 respectively and be able to buy an even 200k at a little bit lower price

Unfortunately I think the ship has sailed on buying LTC, it's just overbought at this point, the time to buy was no later than the first week of July. Honestly LTC being over $120 is a pretty good sign we aren't too far off from a temporary pullback, we can only pray for a brief LTC crash below $100 later in August (@chumpdumper notwithstanding) for one more opportunity to buy-in to that prior to the three-month meat of this bull season (Sept-Nov 2025) but overall i'm not super bullish that LTC will test ATHs this run or anything, and that's what anyone still buying LTC at current prices is pretty much banking on at this point.

$100k to buy back into Tezos (XTZ) at $.85 last night seemed like an absolute no brainer after I took profit on about that much a few weeks ago when it short squeezed up to $1 from $.65 or so, and once again I'm right, it tends to overperform on bullish weekends

[ChumpDumper]

Yeah LTC isn't going back to its lofty heights. My late small potatoes hit has been Chainlink. I will never pretend to know what's going on.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Yeah LTC isn't going back to its lofty heights. My late small potatoes hit has been Chainlink. I will never pretend to know what's going on.

what's your average cost on LTC? you said before the walmart short squeeze, so I'm guessing high $100s range?

I think assuming we have a big fall bull run, LTC can potentially approach or eclipse, like, $200. But unlikely it'll reach $400 again at least this cycle, XRP seems to be replacing it this cycle


Still holding LINK and definitely the $100k buy at the cost of $17.72 has been very good for me in the past week, about a $17k/20% gain. LINK/AVAX are good intermediate buys imo. You really can't go wrong with the vetted, tried and true mid cap functional alts like those, COMP especially when its in the $40s (but realistically COMP anything under $60 is pretty much a guaranteed double), XTZ under $1, etc. As long as you aren't buying right before crypto winter you're guaranteed to make money.


Still very confident in one more pretty decent sized dip in August, not sure if middle or late August, so tomorrow night might be a good time to sell some short positions for gains. Mondays are typically when dips start when they're going to happen.

[Millennial_Messiah]

August dip starting today. Seems like I did a beautiful job of profit taking last night.

Only thing I have left currently is a little under over half my COMP (currently worth $518k on a $425k principal, and it's actually only barely down today, still currently trading over $53 with my average buy cost being $44.15 during last week's dip so an absolute steal there, but I knew that all along) plus my original stack of $170k worth of Ethereum (now worth over $239k, still up over 40%, that number`ll go down this dip but it's fine)..... which I bought below 3000 so it'll be fine even with a temporary dip back into the mid 3000s, but I'm glad I sold off my other high caps (ADA and XRP) when they were just above the profit line (just a little past midnight EDT last night before it started really tanking) by a few hundred bucks each (so next to nothing, but at least not a loss) as I had bought back in pretty high (.798 and 3.24 respectively).

Smaller caps... I also sold off my 100k in XTZ for a decent gain, a little over 103k at .89, bought at .865 the day before so not too bad to make three thousand bucks on a smaller $1B cap functional altcoin. COMP is better than Tezos in that department, but both still hold their value, as COMP has a low and hard supply limit so it's scarce and XTZ isn't really mined and the process of "baking" to earn it is a bit legacy, cumbersome and more difficult than mining or working for other coins, so the supply of XTZ doesn't go up much either.

I've read different opposing views on just how functional LINK is, but it obviously did very well the past week, and it looks like I timed the market just perfectly on that one, buying 2 weeks ago at 17.17 and selling at 22.03 (after sell spread/fee) near its peak early in the wee hours last night. Buy in was $85k and sold for over $111k. Pretty nice to make a clean $20-25k in two weeks on a coin (Chainlink, in this instance) when ya can't make money on XRP or ADA but yer still breaking even ;)

I've seen a bunch of charts and videos from crypto experts that the next logical buy-the-dip prices for XRP and ADA at some point this upcoming week's consolidation phase are at about .69 and 2.90 ish respectively, so I'll likely be buying a full, fresh $170k on each of those next week, and hope to expect an ethereum-esque gain or better on each in the meat of this bull run which is likely Sept-Nov. In fact, I've cleared up a little over $1.1M in liquid cash on the exchange, over 10% of it being pure profit, and am definitely planning to go all in on the fall bull run and sell just before crypto winter hits. I'll be targeting re-buys Uniswap (UNI any dip under $9 is a buy), ETC (should go down roughly double with however much ethereum dips, but anything under $20 for that is definitely a buy), Chainlink (if LINK returns to that ~$17 ish price point that'd be amazing), Avalanche (sold AVAX for a pretty paltry profit last night, it didn't do much with this past week's pump but has performed well otherwise and has value) and maybe a couple other coins. I wish I hadn't missed the boat on LTC this summer, but would absolutely love a dip below $100 there (not counting on it though).

[Millennial_Messiah]

Expect a pretty grisly next 7-8 days and a dip buying opportunity with the Trump/russia/Alaska and other Trump related news, but pretty big up's starting either late August or very early Sept through November, to the moon. September rate cut 83% likely as per Polymarket

[Darth_Pelican]

ETH toying with $4,000. Hopefully it can break through.

And now pushing toward $4,500

[ChumpDumper]

Yeah there might be an extension of this run since some money could be coming in for the newly accessible accounts.

[Darth_Pelican]

Yeah there might be an extension of this run since some money could be coming in for the newly accessible accounts.

Yeah, I want to believe that we see less volatility and more sustainable growth moving forward now that we have ETF and the recent executive order for crypto 401K implementation. Probably just wishful thinking.

[ChumpDumper]

welp

[Millennial_Messiah]

Yeah, I want to believe that we see less volatility and more sustainable growth moving forward now that we have ETF and the recent executive order for crypto 401K implementation. Probably just wishful thinking.

I do believe we'll get a pretty big dip this month maybe in the next few days to a week before the meat of the bull run goes to the moon i.e. 2017/2021, from Sept to Nov, before the inevitable big crash Dec-Jan.

People including youtubers saying that the four year cycles are dead are really fucking stupid and asking to roundabout their gains or worse.

ADA is still dirt cheap at the moment and has the highest ceiling among alt coins imho.

Selling a kidney and going all in on ADA seems like a viable option tbh.

$2.19 on 10/10/2021.

$0.68 today....true I have a fuckton of cardano, way into the six figures in $USD, but bought at $0.69 average.

Has not come close to $2.19 since this post :lol

sorry about the kidney bro. hopefully the guy you sold the kidney too will repay you by taking out the random chick you knocked up discreetly with a bow and arrow in the woods and your wife and the cops will never find out.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Seems like it just bottomed out.

Exactly, the bottom was in beginning of this month (actually there was a wick down under $10 briefly for 5 minutes on 10/10/2025 during the Trump 100% tariff on China scare speech, but that doesn't really count), but now it's a massive buy, but it before it goes over $20 again and it's too late which should be within days, things have been trending back up dramatically the last couple days. ATH for LINK is over $50 which will be resistence but this coin has mass institutional adoption and doesn't carry an ecosystem of shitty memecoins like Solana does so I fully expect better coins like Chainlink and Avalanche (AVAX) to soon overtake Solana in terms of both price and market cap and even highly functional projects like Cardano (ADA) to usurp garbage large cap coins like Solana and BNB (honestly, wtf does BNB even do except pump the criminal CZ?? it's a glorified memecoin) in terms of market cap, not necessarily price $USD.

Bull market is just starting and alt coins are pumping. BTC and even ETH are lagging kind of behind.

[Blake]

How's it going this week?

[Millennial_Messiah]

How's it going this week?

Pump N Dump to flush out the weak hands and 4 year cycle maxi's before the big December/Q1 pump.

That's all.

Expect a similar scenario to Feb. 2021 in, roughly Feb. 2026.

4-year-cycle maximalists are stupid. What happened in 2013, 2017, and 2021 was a sample size of merely n=3, and also driven strictly by data and the business/quantitative easing and tightening cycle.

Bull markets don't end in FUD with no euphoria. That's a basic fact.

This cycle of QT and high interest rates has been very much extended since 2022, which is absurdly long by the Fed and Too Late Powell, and it ends in 10 days. Liquidity and quantitative easing is coming back. Crypto is going to pump quick when we transition back towards and to QE. I also believe the fears over lack of rate cuts are stupid. Trump won't let that happen, he's demonstrated he cares tremendously about the midterms, if he has to can Powell sooner than his spring term end date he will.

[Dirks_Finale]

Ok, roll call. How many of y'all dropped BTC? Still dropping like a damn rock at 85k.

[DavidTheGoliath]

Ngl, holding BTC through that last dip was rough. Watching it drop while other coins were pumping had me low-key stressed, but I tried not to panic sell since the last bear market taught me things can bounce hard once the vibe shifts. Chasing pumps manually is soooo exhausting, so I’ve been looking into tools with solid automation and risk controls instead of trying to catch everything by hand.

Watch the Fed/FOMC, liquidity, quantitative easing. Far more important than something coincidental like a "four year cycle". 2025 was a dud because of lack of liquidity and the stubborn quantitative tightening from the end of 2021/beginning of 2022 not ending until literally this month because Too Late Jerome Powell is a stubborn boomercon idiot.

when people were generally optimistic about 2022 in 2021, i was not, citing the very high likelihood of drastically increased interest rates and contractionary monetary policy. 2026 is the opposite, we are moving away from Fed contractionary policy to expansionary, so 2026 should be bullish.

also, selling all your BTC for alts is stupid, since BTC leads the bull market and alts don't really go up before BTC dominance (BTC.D) raises into the 60's%.


Ok, roll call. How many of y'all dropped BTC? Still dropping like a damn rock at 85k.
selling low is stupid. it won't fall below 73K, as BTC has never and will never fall below the previous Election Day price, but it might fall to near there temporarily likely on a wick, but it might just go back up to 100k before the end of the year imo. FOMC w/rate cuts coming Dec. 10th, which should be bullish, even if Powell always finds a way to say something stupid about inflation which pumps the dollar ($DXY) and tanks the markets at least temporarily.
