So I have been here since 2013 and have seen the market go up and down several times and everyone is talking about the coming halving, estimating the 2025 ATH based on previous halvings/history. Thats fine.
But the more I think about it - it feels different this time - I am not sure we are prepared.
Are we prepared? I have a feeling I need to hodl on harder than ever, since it seems everyone wants a piece of the cake now.. and they wont be getting any from me.
Of course the players are getting bigger and Bigger and BIGger and BIGGER - yet I cannot see any kind of appreciable and meaningful difference that would really pop bitcoin completely out of a kind of cycle and fractal that is more or less 4 years, and at the same time, every single cycle is going to have and even feel like it has enough of a variance from previous cycles to feel different, yet in the end, it may well end up falling pretty damned close to within a kind of pattern....
and it is difficult for me to really be wrong.. whether the top is $150k or $1.5 million. or even if we might end up getting something close to a $10 million top (which seems like it would be pushing it).
And then it seems also difficult to be wrong even if the correction ends up being 50% to 65% rather than some greater amount...
Are you trying to suggest UPpity, without any major correction? How could that even happen? becuase when the UP ends up happening it keeps happening and keeps happening and keeps happening and gets beyond control which ends up contributing both the correction, but then a kind of delay in getting back up to the previous (kind of over exuberance) top.
- it feels different this time -
You must be new here.
That is the TLDR that I was trying to say.
- it feels different this time -
You must be new here.
Sure. Everything is as it always has been then? I'm not sure, but each to their own.
My postcount might indicate that I am new.
But my account is older than yours.You need to UP your posting game Zeunerts.
How come you have been leaving us suffering without your earlier contributions?

And, by the way, since you mentioned yourself as being "here" likely meaning bitcoin since 2013, what is your backstory... what were you doing in bitcoin in 2013?
Many folks know some variation of mine.. which I can repeat. .which is that I largely book marked some bitcoin-related tabs in around September/October 2013 that were things that I was supposed to "get to," but I did not do shit about getting to those bookmarked tabs until about mid-November when I entered into a conversation with a guy in another non-bitcoin-related forum, and he was largely arguing with me about investing and presenting himself as some kind of investing genius because of his then involvement in BTC (which his backstory was that he had bought around 27 BTC in 2012-ish in order to buy drugs and then he was still pretty rich from the bitcoin even though he was continuing to spend his bitcoin..and was not even a dummie about various technical aspects of bitcoin, even though he seemed to like to spend his bitcoin, which did not really fair as well for him in 2014, 2015 and maybe into 2016).. .but anyhow back to yours truly....
I ended up getting inspired to look into bitcoin more and more in November 2013 and within about a week and a half or maybe it was two weeks of my looking into bitcoin, I ended up making my first BTC purchase at the very end of November 2013.. but at the same time making a plan as I went in order to continue to research into bitcoin... while i was buying bitcoin within a 6 month budget that i was creating.. so getting back to my comparison to the guy that introduced me to bitcoin, I was continuing to buy bitcoin through that whole period of 2014, 2015, and 2016 (even though my buying was not as intense in 2015 and 2016) and my bitcoin stash remained pretty much in the negative during a lot of that time, largely because I had front-loaded my investment so much in 2013 and continuing to front load in 2014.. and the guy who introduced me was not really accumulating through so much of that time, even though he was investing in "bitcoin-related" products, and surely getting sucked into various kinds of shitcoin thinking.... and maybe I am even kind of wondering how he is doing now...
Anyhow, so back to the question about you, Zeunerts. What was your 2013 and 2014 experience like? What were you doing in regards to bitcoin during that time?
... But my account is older than yours.
Oh my bad...
Huh! A 2014 newb... now that is special. And in that case...I bow down to you sir.
I prefer lurker. I have been following this forum since 2013, and mainly this thread (90%~). I try to keep up to date. I find many people here interesting.
It's a good place to get a feel for the market, and a summary of different news outlets often gets posted here.
Here's your chance to get ur lil selfie out of the closet.
Pray tell.
After the excitement of the current broken resistance, i went ahead to check the
Fear and Greed Indicatorit was light green(cautious)yesterday and now it on the 79% rader point

https://coinstats.app/fear-and-greedclose editWe might be in another dip soon as these traders are preparing to TP(take profit).Besides, there're resistance ahead to break
"We" always might be on the precipice of "another dip," but I would be careful about taking too much profits too soon based on some lame-ass theories regarding sentiment that might be "too frothy." There are traders who have had even better theories than that who end up getting their lil selfies reckt (or at least decently, and unnecessarily damaged) because they are spending too much time preparing their lil selfies for DOWNity while failing/refusing to make sure that they are sufficiently/adequately prepared for UP.
So good luck with your ideas of "down before up," that may or may not end up working out for you.
And regards to the supposed resistance ahead.. some of that has already been broken by getting above $50k.. and there is always some resistance.. and surely my own theory is that we don't get into no man's land until about $55k, so I am already implying some resistance between $50k and $55k, but still that seems to be a BIG so fucking what?.. let's see how it plays out.. .. and of course, we always should be prepared for both price directions.. but calling what you are doing, planning to do or suggesting that others do, "taking profits" causes me to speculate that you might not understand dee cornz very much too well... but hey, you do you... it's a free world, the last time I checked
(oh wait....).
