I have just crossed with the following [Tweet](https://x.com/DegenerateNews/status/1887644418947027287) that made me realize how Ethereum upgrades are really proving that they are a big success. [Ethereum Gwei](https://preview.redd.it/bcpwxibntnhe1.png?width=1035&format=png&auto=webp&s=f2d50dc776860b7d41df01eb0d114209a2c8ae94) As you can see in the image above Gwei is currently at 0.986 ($0.06) at High priority which is really cheap comparing with what we have seen in the past before. If you have been here for a long time you will understand, I suggest you to search your wallet address on Etherscan, click on Analytics tab and then on TxnFees tab to enjoy watching how much you paid on ETH gas fees in the past xD This low fees made me think that Ethereum transactions have decreased and are low right now so I decided to check it but I am quite surprised. [Ethereum Daily Transactions Chart](https://preview.redd.it/30fsohvvunhe1.png?width=1001&format=png&auto=webp&s=402d75dcea5443010e57c6313ed2eaaec6cb2a47) As you can see in the chart above Ethereum daily transactions are 2021 levels with 1,333,804 transactions yesterday. This confirms us that people are still using Ethereum actively even if the price is not in a great place. It also confirms us that all the upgrades released during this last years are working like a charm even if the inflation has raised a bit but I think that "problem" will be solved soon with some changes that are coming. Its also great to see how L2s are also working as expected in the whole Ethereum scalability roadmap absorbing traffic and reducing congestion on L1. This is bullish because it makes Ethereum competitive with other alternative chains, it is not suffering from low demand and keeps evolving.

# Switzerland Consumer Sentiment https://preview.redd.it/r1i01cl0erhe1.png?width=1420&format=png&auto=webp&s=c5d460935bdc833f4ceaffbe768a53ae0f7592d4 # Switzerland SECO Consumer Climate showed that the consumer sentiment index improved in January 2025 at -29 compared to -30 in December 2024, showing some decent recovery but since it is still in the negative territory, we can see how weak the sentiment is. This continues the trend of weak Switzerland data.   # Canada Employment Report https://preview.redd.it/g39gj461erhe1.png?width=1420&format=png&auto=webp&s=db0a4d426d6a2f3e719e328ed3b170b2c5f99961 Canada's Unemployment Rate moved above the 6% level in early 2024 in the month of March, and reached a peak of 6.9% in November 2024, indicating clear weakness in the labor market there, which also helps to explain why the Bank of Canada has been cutting rates so aggressively. Today’s data showed a positive sign with the Unemployment Rate moving lower to 6.6%, which is 2 months of decline from the 2024 as you can see from the orange line above. https://preview.redd.it/zskntgr1erhe1.png?width=1497&format=png&auto=webp&s=51c22a7a7591225df7c782c0df26e84cf8f36fb2 Meanwhile Canada added 384.6k jobs for 2024 for an average of 32k jobs added per month for 2024, but January data showed a huge amount of 76k jobs added, and although it is below the 90.9k peak of 2024 that was in December, it is still decent compared to the 2024 average of 32k. As you can see from the graph above the jobs added recovery is very clear with a nice pump higher from the -2.8k in July 2024. # US Employment Report https://preview.redd.it/ublwa9c2erhe1.png?width=1421&format=png&auto=webp&s=83c3240462ff2eff0ad168b181e5072b629fa998 The US Unemployment rate has been hovering above the 4% level since May 2024, with the push to the 2024 peak of 4.2% in July and August 2024 seemingly being the trigger that made the Federal Reserve cut rates by 0.50% in September 2024 when their communication changed from inflation focus to labor market focus. However, since December last year Fed policymakers led by Powell have pivoted back toward an inflation focus. Today’s data showed the Unemployment Rate falling in January 2025 to 4.0%, which is 2 months in a row of declines as you can see from the blue line above, and it is the lowest level since 8 months before that. If the data series can move below the 4.0% level it will give Fed policymakers even more confidence to keep rates unchanged which is not good for crypto. https://preview.redd.it/mbnp9c23erhe1.png?width=1497&format=png&auto=webp&s=f8b18ee7ff5c8ccc48e3982d971786a0c5f098e7 Meanwhile the Non-Farm Employment change was lower at 143k jobs added in January 2025, but the previous month’s figure was revised higher from 256k to 307k so that added to some positive impact. Overall a strong employment report from US. # University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment https://preview.redd.it/dyricpl5erhe1.png?width=1420&format=png&auto=webp&s=0cb53882971b20de367466705e03f67141bd5e13 The University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment rebounded above the 70.0 level last year September but couldn't retest the 2024 high of 79.4 that was hit in March 2024. Data today showed the preliminary figure fell below the 70 level again at 67.8 in February 2025 as inflation concerns from tariff fears led to the lower number and the figure is close to retesting last year’s low of 66.4. The inflation expectations surged a full 1% to 4.3%, and this could be one of the reasons for the selloff reaction on this news. # Final Thoughts Today’s stronger US employment data was mostly ignored by crypto traders as ETH still moved higher, but upon the release of the consumer sentiment data which showed higher inflation expectations, ETH retraced lower from $2797 to a low of $2662 before seeing some slight rebound, showing traders are now very sensitive to inflation data. This combination of strong employment and higher inflation does not look good for crypto as it will give the Federal Reserve more reason to keep interest rates on hold. This combined with tariff headlines from Trump regarding reciprocal tariffs next week points to a rocky road ahead for next week as well. Time to buckle up again!   *DISCLAIMER: Economic data from forexfactory with additional info from the aggregated links on the site, Asset prices from CMC.*

I just noticed Roger no longer talks about BCH publicly or even on his X (Twitter) account. He even took the name Bitcoin cash out of his bio. Anyone know what’s going on?
2025-02-07
I agree. Seems like a mining token / name / OG play almost like a “meme” of sorts.
2025-02-07
Long time lurker, I just wanted to share an idea that is my head since this morning. Sorry in advance for my English, besides being novice in trading, I am not a native English speaker. It looks like it is going to be a rough quarter for Tesla and it is quite obvious that the P/E ratio is quite crazy. But, let's be honest, value investing is long outdated, so trying to be bearish at this point with these meme stocks is absurd. And still I ask myself if it is possible to make money of this situation... And I was thinking. These fuckers are holding a big amount of "alternative" cash in their balance sheet, which does not looks like to be a healthy strategy for a serious company, is not possible to take advantage of it? I mean, I don't know exactly which "alternative" cash ;) are they holding and I am too lazy to do the research, but many of these are quite iliquid and, consequently, quite easy to manipulate. What impedes somebody with enough financial muscle of making a few big transactions at the end of March, so the Mark to market of these show a big loss when revaluated? Wouldn't be enough to, combined with the lower revenue and the huge overvalued share price, tu push the stock over the cliff? Indees, cannot a few people coordinate this and take a few puts on the share? Indeed, Tesla cannot sell the "alternative" currency without realizing a big loss due to the illiquidity of it and the panic effect could imply. Unless they are holding everything in the most well known "alternative currency", and even this one can be manipulated, they would push too much the price down. Just wondering, probably I am missing millions of reasons why this will not work (mostly that the market is even more crazy than us and will hold on the stock or even buy even more), but I would like to hear them!

I got the feeling from Patterson that since the release of the book he doesn’t want to let anyone be able to say “you just wrote that book to pump your BCH bags” so they agreed to not talk about BCH.

He got locked up. Things had to change from that point.

Cardano is coming out with bitcoinOS which is similar to using wrapped BTC but without having to wrap it and trust a smart contract. It supposedly allows you to use your btc natively on Cardano for defi etc., and is supposed to come out in May. If this is all true, do you all plan to use it? Why or why not? Personally I’m a bit skeptical but I’d love to hear from the community on this one.
2025-02-07
Yes.
2025-02-07
From what I’ve noticed a lot of big name people like Roger, Jihan Wu, Kim Dotcom, Marc De Mesel even Vitalik that once talked about BCH are all gone. As if the movement has been abandoned.

All those people are still there. However, it is evident that none movement does matter. Crypto is just a speculation at the moment. Nothing more. There's no point in making any movement. People prefer quick scams to get rich quick. That's hardly a base for any movement.

Hello fellow regards and Happy Friday! This has been my best week of trading ever. After what seemed like an infinite stroke of bad luck, I think I’m finally on a hot streak. Best part is I can pay off my Honda Civic and take the old lady out for dinner. I told her to cancel plans with her boyfriend this weekend because we’ve got a reservation at Dorsia. $5K -> $10K (XOM calls) $10K -> $26K (CRM puts) $26K -> $31K (scalping SPY 0DTE) Cheers! 🍻

On Alex Jones live today Roger said he hasn't been so excited about Bitcoin BTC than he is today, because of being able to scale through Zano, another coin he owns. So not sure how this take fits into that.
2025-02-07
It does, several times over the course of the book, but from an objectively fair point of view I would say: The technical solution to BTC, although has its own challenges with network effect. If you haven't read it yet, you really should do yourself the favour and grab a copy.
2025-02-07
Were you ever able to purchase MANTA in the US? If so, which method did you use? Thank you!
2025-02-07
I did. I have been buying ethereum since 2016. Sold my entire bag as of September 2024, and moved it all into DOT. While I knew ethereum would still preform okay this cycle, I also knew it lost all its competitive edge over the last 8 years. I knew since 2017 if they didn’t eventually solve their insanely high transaction cost, and fix the isolation issue of L2 chains, then the chain would slowly collapse. And they never solved either of those to a reasonable level. But Polakdot did.

You also have to consider that he is fighting for his freedom right now so it probably wouldn’t hurt to “play the game” right now if that helps him not spend the rest of his life behind bars.

Since weekend is approaching, bitcoin will decrease strong from now till Monday midday. Alts will bleeding much more as usual. So actually when is the altcoin season starting finally? What do you guys think? I mean since late November 24 Alts are just going downwards. This ain't alt season. Guys when do you think the alt season will finally arrive? September? Oktober? Never?
2025-02-07
Good choice in dot, that's my largest bag after BTC and ETH and I won't have ETH after this run, I fear too many people think this all at the same time though

First came the Apple "Big Brother" commercial. Steve Jobs was fired one year later. Next came the dot-com commercials. Then dot bust wiped all the johnny-come-lately's. Next was Blockchain/Hype coins. Tom Brady, Matt Damon and Larry David won't let me down. FISCAL WIPEOUT. This year it is A.I.. I'm guessing out of the 90 SuperBowl commercials aired Sunday, 40+ will mention A.I. Whether it's Matthew McConaughey schilling for Salesforce's new A.I. Or Automobile companies pitching A.I. added value to their cars. Or nonsense not unlike the blockchain Tea company from years ago. "See how Doritos will get you fewer broken chips in a bag and more crunch using A.I." TLDR: 40 is the over/under for name dropping phrase A.I. in Superbowl commericals. If it's over 40. It's over, I'm calling top. Sell your pure A.I. plays and QQQ this week AFTER the lemmings jump on.

I have been stacking xrp and hbar for a bit because I believe in these two coins the most, besides bitcoin. I did some minor research in chainlink, and it looks solid, but I don't know if I believe in it as much as xrp and hbar. I have a budget, so I cant start stacking chainlink unless I lower a bit of my weekly xrp and hbar buys. Should I take the risk and start stacking chainlink too? Do people really believe in chainlink? Do you think it has a brighter future than even xrp and hbar?
2025-02-07
There's no money in it or at least not what there used to be. Wu paid to have it created and big BTC holders like himself and Ver benefited from having this huge amount of dollar worth of BCH basically created from nothing. Then Ver and the others went wild marketing it and saw it moon and crash then basically plateau at a relatively low value. I just think they lost interest for a variety of reasons but it's definitely harder to make money pumping BCH than it used to be.
2025-02-07
It’s been so many years since the split and the markets have spoken. All those guys realise BCH lost.

Imagine making a charitable donation and never knowing if it was used to help those in need. This lack of openness has long plagued philanthropy, preventing generosity and engendering suspicion. Now, blockchain technology is taking over to alter that. Blockchain ensures giving to charities is fully transparent with its **unhackable, decentralized ledger**.  Because each donation is tracked and logged, contributors may confirm the use of their funds. By cutting out the middlemen, this **cuts out fraud**, ensures that money actually reaches the intended recipients, and reduces administrative costs.  More of the money goes directly to the cause in question. Companies like the World Food Programme (WFP) have already been using Blockchain to distribute aid, allowing the tracking of resources in real time. Platforms such as Giveth and Alice are making trust even stronger by showing donors the instant impact of their donation.  The potential is huge: if trust rises, blockchain use in charity can improve worldwide donations by **30%.** Yet, there are still issues to be resolved, such as **technical adoption and regulatory barriers**.  But one thing is for sure: blockchain can revolutionize philanthropy. Is this how charity giving will develop in the future? If you could see your impact in real time, would you be more likely to donate?

Hyperliquid is an on-chain dex, meaning everyones orders and executions are viewable on chain.

United States (US) President Donald Trump hit social media hard on Friday, noting through a series of posts that his plans to execute widespread tariffs on most of the US trading allies are back on the table as a means of addressing the US federal deficit. Without any changes to funding sources, the US' budget shortfall is expected to swell under President Trump's stewardship as his proposed tax cuts will cause the federal government's inflows to evaporate. President Trump also voiced his desire to "end the trade deficit with Japan", which currently stands at $65 billion annually. Key highlights Trump signs an order amending duties on de minimis imports from China. I aim to bring down the deficit. I want to end the trade deficit with Japan. We do want to work on the deficit; get it down to even. I haven't changed my mind on US Steel. I will make an announcement next week on reciprocal trade. Tariffs are an option to address deficit. Tariffs on Japan are an option. I will announce reciprocal tariffs next week on many countries. I will discuss the Nippon deal with Ishiba. Auto tariffs always on the table. I will be meeting with Xi probably. I will be talking to Putin. The US looking for security of rare earths. No rush on Gaza. I will probably talk to Zelenskiy next week; I want to discuss security of their assets, like rare earths.

Roger's persecution is to punish him for threatening the USD as a global currency. He's fighting for his freedom right now so yeah I think is time for others to promote a permissionless P2P payment. I think Bch or a stable coin built on top has the best shot. But I also think Linux is the best OS.

Most altcoins look like they have already finished their bull run. You can deny it, but 99% of coins look that way. There are only a few dozen coins that are holding up well, and those are the ones that had demand in the fall and managed to grow. The rest… I know most of you don’t believe in technical analysis, but these coins are stuck at FIBO 0 and look terrible. History tends to rhyme, so maybe it will rhyme again for BTC and a handful of coins… while the rest will go through a correction and that’s it. This is exactly the capital dilution that everyone has been warning about. The market is maturing—slowly.

As a conspiracy minded person, my belief is that all the world governments serve the same masters and are pulled by the same strings.

Could it kill off BTC and crypto if it were to tank so hugely, combined with perhaps some other events and propaganda?

The bet is that Paramount will settle the CBS/🥭 lawsuit as a bribe and shortly after (end of march) the merger with Skydance will get approved. I think the FCC noise, and also recent “concerns” by senators about the merger is 🥭 applying leverage before settlement talks. https://www.cnn.com/2025/01/31/media/cbs-trump-settlement-60-minutes/index.html?utm_source=chatgpt.com Skydance CEO is the son of Larry Ellison, Oracle founder and a longtime 🥭 supporter, so I believe the merger will go through, as long as Paramount bends the knee.

Good afternoon, my last post was removed for not having enough characters. So I’m going to try this again. I am a beginner in crypto, I’ve got Coinbase and phantom wallet and Robinhood and have small positions in a few of the big coins: Solana ethereum and a very little bitcoin. I’m curious about any good YouTube videos or classes I can take that I can build my knowledge on things like the blockchain, Bullx, and how to watch Dexscreener, candles, spot trends and everything. Thus far I’ve just been following advice from friends and jumping on bandwagon meme coins and mostly getting cracked. Did make a bit of a windfall with the Trump coin (got in at 3 and out at 40) and I’m trying to replicate even half of that return on a semi regular basis. Any advice on how to get started and what videos to watch would be great. I know there are tons out there so just trying to narrow down who to watch, what to read, who to follow. Thanks so much!

Last time this ratio point came up, I sold 1/8th of my BTC into Solana and traded back when the ratio went to ~400ish. This move earned me quite a few extra few SOL’s. I have 2 questions for this community. 1. If I’m doing this moves on a ledger that hasn’t been associated with my social security or me at all… tax ramifications? How can they prove I did this? 2. Should I do this move again as we’re at 508 Sol’s per BTC as I type this… should I double down and do 25% of the BTC this time? Cheers.

Sorry all - but this isn't the crypto community I remember from the last cycle. Unfortunately, I have to go to x/twitter to get the latest dialogue for what is happening in blockchain. This sector is infested with people (mostly men) who are some of the biggest fucking losers I have ever seen. And yeah, I get it man, you got 7 figures in your phantom wallet. You got a nice house, you got a big dick, you fuck beautiful women. I get it guys, "YOU WON". But you know what else? You are the biggest losers I have ever seen. These guys can't stop talking about sucking trumps dick, fondling elons balls. Man - what in the fuck happened to this space? This isn't what we were looking forward to the last cycle. Whatever *this is* is some sick, twisted nightmare of what we all thought decentralization could be. This isn't what I signed up for and I am definitely not down for this sick, twisted, fascist shit. I hate what has happened to this space and I hate the type of people it attracts. It was always there, but now it is entirely too emboldened. It's too bad there is a silver lining of something good somewhere wayyyyyyy underneath. I honestly hope Satoshi is still alive, and when the US government makes the biggest gamble in history on BTC, I hope he rugs the entire thing and sends that disaster leadership to the end of a terrible regime. Sorry guys for the vent, but this space is full of toxic, loser, parasites and it only seems like it will get worse. EDIT: Just wanted to clarify, I was NOT targeting this sub, I am talking about X/Twitter. However, I will say that the types of people this cycle is bringing in is definitely not exclusive to X/Twitter, it is happening anywhere and everywhere in this industry. It just so happens that X/Twitter is the place their rhetoric is most emboldened and made into dogma.

1. MSTR is accretive because mNAV is greater than 1. This is true, but its an asymptotic relationship where you will never get as much bitcoin as if you just bought bitcoin UNLESS the mNAV of MSTR increases, which is unlikely. 2. MSTR is not "leveraged bitcoin", it just appears that way because when BTC goes parabolic, MSTR seems to go even more parabolic, so momentarily you get higher mNAV where it becomes accretive. But then the mNAV drops (like we've seen over the last few months), and fundamentally you literally cannot make as much money as you would have by just investing in bitcoin. Its not possible. If you buy the stock and its mNAV is 3, then it drops to 2, the most BTC yield you could ever possibly gain is 100%, but you paid a 150% premium for the BTC. I'm going to get so much hate for posting this but I really want someone to prove me wrong. Why am i wrong?

Isn't the 60% apr on staking really good? If I just buy 1 TAO and let it compound until the top of the next bullmarket (in abt 4/5years) won't I have like 5x'd my TAO and if TAO goes up in price made a lot of x's on that

Thank you for solving the mystery, i am also receiving dust attacks from that exact address every time i deposit to coinbase, hence how i found this post. my coinbase address is qp0z....423g and dust attacks come from qp0z....623g quite clever but the Jokes on them, I use legacy address format lol

From what I can tell staking isn’t that consistent, you might have a day or two where it hits 60% but most the time your average is about 15/16% annually. Which is still a nice rate of return.

I'm already a sol holder and I'm aware there are risks involved in using trading bots. I'm not investing a substantial amount of money. I just have a few spare thousand that i would want to try trading sol memecoins with, and I've been seeing alot of videos about telegram trading bots. Can people recommend me good places/communities to learn better on how to use these trading bots and some of the safest bots to use that are not going to just withdraw all my money after a while lol. Also probably where i can get info and stay updated on new tokens and in general tips to stay safe while attempting to do this. I've heard of Bullx, but i wanted to hear if there are any more recommendations from the sol community.

Companies like Tesla have been performing horribly in sales, hence they have been loading up on crypto - this is no secret. The next pump, therefore, will occur just before earnings season, which would put us at end of March, with first quarter earnings reported in April/May We are in February right now, which means these companies are still accumulating crypto, that's why prices have been sliding, to make it easier for these guys to load up.

You'll never see 60% apr. There are times where a whale makes a large stake change leading to a temporary blip in the accounting math. Bit realistically, you'd have to have been in the right place at the right time to benefit

XRP reaches a ATH of around $3 in January 2018 and then falls to $0.17 in 2020. Pumps back up to $3 in 2025 and is now at $2.37. Where will this take us?
2025-02-08
Apr is not really what you'll earn. Staking returns decrease over time, so even the 15% now will be lower in 6 months. Is that an APR? Don't use that number to plan your retirement ;)

Sorry all - I have been thinking a lot lately about where the crypto space is, and it's been quite a rollercoaster, to say the least. While I've seen some stuff that's given me pause, I still genuinely believe in the potential of blockchain and our community. We are all here because we see something special in this technology, and that shared vision-that belief in something bigger-makes us all winners in a way. It's like we're all on the same team, even if we sometimes disagree on the plays. It's easy to get caught up in the noise, considering how much chatter occurs in pockets of the internet. Yeah, I too feel the subject has shifted too, and we aren't as focused on some of those core principles that bound us together. Yet, in saying that, it's real important to keep in mind just why we were into this stuff to begin with. We are winners because we joined something new, something that would change the status quo for real. Most of us got pulled into crypto for the promise of decentralization, financial empowerment, and fairer grounds. We felt that the blockchain might be one to really stir things up and create an awful lot of good. While the road has not been perfectly smooth, with lots of bumps along the way, that is still very much a vision. We're all winners, because we strive for that better future. I get it, I really do. It's frustrating when you see negativity and toxicity creeping in on this space. It's a disappointment when the conversation gets hijacked by other agendas. But, in my honest view, we have the power to shape where this goes next. We are all winners in that we have a voice, we have ideas, and we can contribute toward making things better. Let's create an atmosphere of inclusion and friendliness towards all people. Let's discuss real topics, respectfully debate ideas, and bridge gaps, rather than create divisions. Let's celebrate the folks and projects actually pushing the boundaries of blockchain toward its full potential. Every little bit helps, and each contribution makes us all winners. Still optimistic. I believe we can recapture that spirit of innovation and collaboration that defined the early days of crypto. Let's remember why we got into this in the first place, let's support each other, and let's work together to build a future where blockchain actually empowers people and makes the world a better place. I believe in this community, and I believe in the power of crypto. We're all in this together as winners! Let's make it happen!

Looking at the history of Bitcoin, I believe we are experiencing the most difficult and unpredictable traps ever seen in Altcoins. Currently, I think we are experiencing the second interim rally before the bull market. Looking at previous interim rallies before bull markets: there was one before the 2017 Bull and two before the 2021 Bull. In the first interim rally before the 2017 and 2021 Bulls, Bitcoin saw a drop of around 50%, while Altcoins dropped by about 70%. In the first interim rally of 2024, Bitcoin remained strong while Altcoins dropped by about 70%, similar to what happened in previous rallies. Thanks to this, with the influence of ETFs, we are witnessing the strongest Bitcoin ownership in history. In the bear market seasons of 2026, 2027, and 2028, we may not see a Bitcoin drop of 75% like in the past. I believe there is a possibility that Bitcoin will drop by only 50%, while Altcoins may experience a 95% drop and fade away. Looking at the second interim rally before the 2021 Bull: In August 2020, Bitcoin corrected from $12,500 to $10,000, a 20% drop. During the months of September, October, and November 2020, while Bitcoin dropped by 20%, Altcoins dropped by 70%. The biggest problem is that all interim rallies until now could be predicted. The first interim rally before the 2021 Bull in 2019 was predictable because, historically, it was expected that the Bull would occur in 2021. The second interim rally before the 2021 Bull in August 2020 was predictable because, before Bitcoin's sharp rises, Altcoins were rising more than Bitcoin, indicating a rally without Bitcoin completing its rise. The first interim rally before the 2025 Bull in March 2024 was predictable because Altcoins began to rise before Bitcoin broke its old highs and surpassed them. Since Bitcoin had not completed its rise, it was a sign of an interim rally. I had already predicted this. In December 2023, I repeatedly stated that we were in an interim rally before the Bull and that Altcoins could drop by 70%, and we should not remain fully in altcoins. However, the second interim rally before the 2025 Bull could not have been predicted. It truly was an unexpected trap. Before the Altcoin Rally, everything necessary happened perfectly. Bitcoin broke its old highs and rose more than Altcoins, completing its rise. Afterward, a correction took place. Bitcoin and Bitcoin dominance rose together, with Bitcoin dominance reaching a peak. The disbelief psychology before the Altcoin Rally was also created. A year ago, I said that if the Bull's peak were to be postponed until 2025, we could experience one more interim rally, but I did not expect a trap to be set and an interim rally to be staged before the Altcoin Rally. When I expected a rally in 2025, I thought that Bitcoin would not rise as it is now, reaching only around $70,000, while Altcoins would rise 5-10 times, and Bitcoin dominance would fall. Before Bitcoin completed its rise, we would experience one more interim rally, and then the Bull would come at the end of 2025. The current scenario, where everything happens perfectly before the Altcoin Rally, followed by an unexpected third interim rally, could not have been predicted, and if I had seen this possibility, I would have given it a very small chance. I wouldn't risk missing the Altcoin Rally for this scenario. We cannot say that "since we had two interim rallies before the 2021 Bull, we will definitely have an Altcoin Rally now." We must always account for the possibility of a first-time event in history, as we have been taught through experience. Perhaps, before the Altcoin Rally, we will have a third interim rally, and we will experience rises until May. After a 5-fold rise from this level, Altcoins might drop by 70%. If this happens, the Altcoin Rally will be postponed until the end of 2025, and we will experience another interim rally. If we say, "the market will definitely remain until the end of 2025," and rises begin in May, we might think, "The market always falls in May, summer is always boring and lacks volume. Let's sell in this interim rally and buy lower." In this scenario, if we experience an Altcoin Rally in the summer, it would be a first in Bitcoin history. What will we do? All our efforts will be wasted. We must not dismiss the possibility of an Altcoin Rally happening in the summer. If the Altcoin Rally is artificially triggered in the summer, it won't stop by us saying there will be no rise in the summer. The darkest days in the market are when the rallies start, and in the most exuberant days of the Bull when we are all buying, Altcoins reach their peaks, and then drop by 95%, fading away. We have no influence in this market. In the past, when Solana was $2, everyone thought it was a scam. When Sam from FTX was told, "You locked our Solanas and scammed us," he responded by saying, "Sell me your Solanas for $3." When Solana was at $2 and no one trusted it, it later skyrocketed by 100 times, reaching $200, and then people started buying and trusting it. When Matic was at the bottom for 2 years, everyone said it was a coin that wouldn't rise, that the owners would run away. But Matic later rose 100 times, and then people began buying and trusting it. When Chz was at the bottom for 2 years, only Turks were buying it. Chz, which was said to never rise, later increased by 20 times in 10 days and eventually 100 times from the bottom, and then people started buying and trusting it. The rallies always start when we lose trust in the coins. In the Bull market, when everyone is buying and trusting, coins peak, and then they drop by 95% and fade away. As for my strategy: Personally, I will not risk missing the Altcoin Rally, aiming to earn more and increase my holdings. When the rise starts, I won't worry about whether we are experiencing the third interim rally. I will accept the possibility of the portfolio increasing 5 times and dropping by 70%. If rises start in May, I won't sell, thinking, "We are definitely postponed until the end of 2025. The market always falls in May." I will not dismiss the possibility of the Altcoin Rally happening for the first time in the summer and wait for my targets without selling. We are in a period of great uncertainty. Only creating a strategy will save us from this uncertainty. If you believe in the Altcoin Rally but want to reduce risk, here is a strategy: If rises occur by May, instead of selling like me, you can sell 15-20% of your portfolio to protect it in case of a third interim rally. That way, if the Altcoin Rally starts, a small portion of your portfolio will be outside, and you won't feel uncomfortable. You can buy back when a correction comes. If a third interim rally occurs, you can increase your holdings with the portion you sold. All possibilities are on the table, and you will decide what to do. The most important thing we must accept is that we are not the hunters in this market, but the prey. We must not think of ourselves as superior in the market and always be prepared for every possibility. Whatever happens, whether there is a third interim rally or not, we must be on the winning side in every scenario. If the possibility we expect happens, we should consider the possibility of being wrong, avoid extra risks, and not engage in leveraged trading. We may earn a little less, but we should always be on the winning side. Thank you to everyone who has read my thoughts and analysis. I hope this post has been helpful in some way. I hope everyone who has worked hard and struggled through the 3 years of Bear Market will get the rewards they truly deserve.

Here’s my DD… 25 years of historical data and it has been decently profitable, SP02 seems to be range bound from 95-100, but BPM sometimes goes way up. One day I finished running a marathon and checked the app and it was at 180. That being said, I am really thinking this is my next move - especially after monitoring it during the SPY moves today. It was volatile, going up and down quite a bit, but it consistently gained rather than dropping with SPY. That coupled with the fact it’s been range bound for so long makes me think it is a prime choice for a breakout.
