If you bought the dip a week ago you'd be down about 7%
If you bought the dip a month ago you'd be down about 43%
And if you bought the dip about a year ago you'd only be down about 80%

Fat chance.

Even at $10 you'd be able to buy the entire supply for a mere $170m. And there'll be whales fighting over that pie.

You'll never walk alone

Great song.

Best version ever is by that Liverpool band Gerry and the Pacemakers (attention Mic and LFC).

Thanks for reminding me. I'll be adding it to my Xmas show this year.

I know it's not actually a Xmas song but neither is Baby It's Cold Outside and I'll be doing that in every set this year.

Go Bitcoin go (up please).

Reminds me of Roy quite a bit..

Would love to hear that. Yes it became Liverpool FC's anthem I guess because of that cover. Very appropriate also for the weather themes and the state of bitcoin.
It went up a bit. Pl keep asking lol.

With all this doom and gloom its nice to take a step back, away from the charts and look at the ongoing developments around bitcoin, it does make you realize why you fell in love with it in the first place, or is that just me?

Going to set my buy orders up over Christmas and commit to not looking at the price every 10 minutes. I will be setting up a LN node to help utilize my free time.

At $10 I'm selling my house. Not joking either.


yeah at $10 BTC ...I will become a 'minimalist' having less crap with a tiny house and a plot of land would sound very good about then....(one extreme trend or the other ..that's my motto)

First and foremost, when the time comes take some fucking profits.

This is what I must regret.

If I had take 10-20% profil I would had recover almost all my investment and would be relaxed now. Possible buying more.

Never try that. Never sell until and unless they're worth enough to make you rich. That's what I've learned from an epic bull run of 2017. I was almost 90% out of crypto by August-November 2017 because I "took profits at 1.5x to 2x".

Maximize your greed, if you're ready to spend a few years in waiting.

I would say you are on the other side of the balance than most people here. I mean... who would take profits at a mere 2x? And *90%* out?

Many people here were at more than 20x profit (at ATH) and didn't take a cent out or just very little in proportion. Going all-in or all-out like that is just crazy gambling.

Actually, I was quite loaded with BTC even in 2015; I got those BTC mostly at $2xx. Keeping the psychological value of "$2xx" in mind, I started to take profits from $300+. Took profits at $300, then at $500, at $1000, more at $2000, and a lot more at ~$3500. By September 2017, I had almost "no BTC" left to sell (I was still quite heavy on alts though).

I must say, I stupidly underestimated bitcoin all that time, and had a completely messed up & crappy strategy. Oh well, whatever happened, can't be reversed anymore.

Simple solution. Take, say, 10% of your "new" profit on the way up.


Say you have 1000 as a baseline, you go up to 2000, you take out (2000-1000)*0.1 = 100.

Now you go from 1900 to 3900, and take out (3900-1900)*0.1 = 200.

In total you've taken out 300, which is 30% of your base value, but you still have 3700 left, which is 2700 over your baseline, or a total of 370%.

Suppose you now drop 86% and you find yourself at 518, had you not taken anything out you would be at 560, so the difference is 42.

You lost 42, but gained 300, hence a profit of 258.


You can adjust the 10% based on your own preferences, but this way you won't ever go 90% out of crypto, while still cushioning the fall to a point where you will either be happy with your profits spent on random toys, or have cash ready for the reversal.


tl;dr Take out a fixed proportion of your profits and don't worry about being "all out" or "all in" ever again. If you want to get fancy you can use variable rates, but you better double check what you're doing before you start.

I fix broken miners. And make holes in teeth :-)
Guess we need to wait till Bitmain decides to pump their latest shitcoin. Wonder when they will run out of BTC....
