This is from December last year and indeed it was bad news for shorts just 2 weeks to the top of 2017.
Institutional hypocrisy at its finest.
I'm a simple man.
I have a simple metric: Everything that was heavily pre-mined, insta-mined or air dropped is an automatic shitcoin.
There are other reasons I would throw a coin into that category, but this one takes care of the large majority... For example, only BTC, LTC and Monero are left from the top 10 after applying this simple rule.
It get's worse after that. Only Dogecoin is 'clean' out of the next 10...

QFT, It's amazing that that is all you really have todo to quick vett in an instant.
and maybe without any phone or laptop nearby
Lol, I didn't see a book at first.
Hmmm, BRB gotta google something.

My take:
Bitcoin market dominance to +9000% and shitcoin % to -infinity?
Ok I'm in, lol.

But who is Arthur Hayes? Not so many persons know who is it exactly.

heheI knew that long-toothed smile looked familiar. Relatives?

bitcoin and ETH will equal in capitalization sooner or later, they have the same reputation

When we reach that point, will there be enough 'native' demand for Bitcoin to avoid a true bear market (like, going convincingly below 200 MA on the daily, just like the other bear markets)?
People that believe in TA are stupid. They deserve their fate of being milked and slaughtered.
Correct. There is nothing that can predict the future.
There is, my friend! But the only correct way of predicting the future is to create it using your own hands and brains

I did a google image search, and I found this article.

I am thinking How fucking stupid can you be? but then, I suppose that there are quite a few folks who bought at the top, and then made a bad situation worse by gambling. He would not be doing so bad, right now, if he had kept his focus on Bitcoin rather than getting distracted by shitcoins... Hard to recover, when your principle is only worth about 4% of what you started with?
Now thats a retard that got what he deserves!
This BTC dip isn't low enuf for you peeps?
Can't see the forest for the trees?
That is my all time favorite Meme shot! you totally know she torched that house!

When I had first come to crypto in early 2017 I participated in the ETH buzz along with other coin pumps. It was views such as yours, JJG's, and many others here that encouraged me to see them for what they were and eventually led me entirely away from the shitcoin buzz never to look back. Feeling rather lucky for that education today. Thanks a lot!
Glad I could help. I too at one point thought that having another coin/blockchain with a differing algo than Bitcoin's could be beneficial.
But then I started to realize that at it's core, all people fundamentally care about is a cryptocurrency's ability to be :
1. Secure and scalable
2. Open source, decentralized mining and voluntary core devs
2. Be scarce and deflationary
3. Store of Value
4. Permissionless transfer of value
5. Exchange for fiat (if necessary), high liquidity
6. Popular with merchants and exchanges
7. Buy goods and services with it
That's it. You can distill 99.99% of peoples wishes for a crypto into that simple, straightforward list. Any other usefulness beyond that list is inconsequential and wouldn't be missed in the world, at all. Anyone that says otherwise is being disingenuous and head-in-the-clouds.
So seen through that lense, is there any real NEED for any crypto other than Bitcoin?
The answer is a resounding "NO".
Those are great core values and I'd like to add a couple I find reassuring.
8. Politically neutral money
9. Monetary system based upon savings rather than debt
All good and undeniable points. I would add that 'privacy' has value, too - even if only to ensure true fungibility. I don't want 'tainted' coins to be an issue - and it's obvious they could be. What is traceable is 'bannable'. BTC may incorporate this down the line, but right now a coin that is private (untraceable) by default has a use-case.

Interesting read, pretty decently argued, too. Thanks.
I am not sure the ETF is the holy grail, but it certainly will change the game. Short term, this will be positive and probably flip the bear market sentiment into bullish. Long term, it will possibly mean wall street has Bitcoin inside the tent.
If it ends this bull market cycle earlier, I have to look forward to it - who wants another two years of this dull grind?
But what 'maturity' will mean? Well, we may rue what we wished for....

Slides and ramps. Barts with lower lows. Grind your teeth, gentlemen, and hold tight.
Note: I have trouble spelling "hold", in all contexts. I'm afraid I'll give away a big clue to some keen observer one fine day.

Beauty!
And I say the above watching my litecoin holdings (from repairs) going into the cum dumpster..... Fortunately I moved some into bitcoin, the rest shall burn......
Chinese been P&D'ing that shit forever why would you get into that shitshow? That was the most obvious pumped bubble eva.

If you want a new hobby come short ETH on light leverage with tight stops. It’s very satisfying and healthier than drinking all day.
