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

My SOL avg. price is $23.42 so I’m not concerned.
Wow. I had that opinion of XRP because it already reached and eclipsed its 2021 ATH and it's one of the most centralized cryptos in existence, so I was surprised it's exploded so much in the past week or so.
When did you buy.... 2020?
Lol the ol' pump and dump
I just went back and checked. I bought 8.46 SOL for $200 on 6/22/21.
That's the thing about crypto which I've certainly learned since those quotes on the last pageaside from Bitcoin long term no one knows about
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 show 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.
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.
We'll have to see how many years it takes for my Litecoin investment to break even.
What year did you buy it and for what average buy price?
LTC has indeed ed pretty dramatically in the past week or so, up to over $135 from about $91 last week.
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 e won't last too long so sell it while it's hot.
I'll have to check. It was before the Walmart hoax e. 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.
ETH over 4K for now. BTC back over 100K
Crap. Hopefully there'll be a temporary dip in the next couple weeks. My account is stuck and has been for a week and a half because the company did some random re-KYC bull even though I already completed all the KYC stuff in June but they're really finicky. They kept requiring additional do ents and selfies for no good reason and now they're saying my account won't be unlocked and "verified" (again) until 12/9. Even though before they had said it would be this week they kept pushing it back a day because they're slow and there's like no good customer service.
Rough day
Dude. At this rate just stop looking at it for 5 years years and wait for the large pump and dump where bitcoin hits 125
My coinbase is getting deactivate for "su ious activity" like wtf? I've been kyc'd confirmed multiple times and just because I decided to wire 1.3m in to my 250k position they blocked the transaction and now they're closing my account? wt ? 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 blocking me
Robinhood did the same in the past to me over a much smaller transaction before. I'm fed up
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.
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 ing 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 like that. Stop bailing out bad businesses and stop artificially feeding the dow/stock market. People will and moan about unemployment but a lot of the employment since covid is bounce back bull and permanently remote token position bull . 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 bull . 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? 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.
You're just a homeless contrarian.
