The herd was buying because of the halvening coming soon.
As usual, do the opposite of what the herd does.
It doesn't work all the time but it works pretty damn well over the long term.
Now I definitely agree with you here. All of the talk of ATH due to halvening made it almost inevitable that we'd see a drop. If I've learned one thing with btc, it's that it'll do what everyone least expects.
Yes, man it was crazy, I usually go from one Youtube video to another, it was crazy how the herd was repeating the same thing all over about the halving, very rarely a good signal.
Lol all the "I told you xx months ago that xy will happen and I am right you see" guys with their glass sphere... Cmon just shut the fuck up. Nobody can predict the crypto market with any fucking chart. I am into bitcoin since 2013 and it's always the same BS. It goes down, the "I told you" guys come up, it goes up, the other group of "I told you guys" come out of their holes.
One guy/company/exchange dumps their huge amount of coins using covid19 as a panic acceerator... I promise you nobody could forecast that 2 months ago...
It's good what happens right now. After the 20k, we never had the "bitcoin is death" phase. Wich is needed for the next ATH.
And who knows, maybe this time it is death. If we see 3 digits I cant imagine a new ATH anymore. Who should mine at three digits.
I can't speak on behalf on these "other guys" but when you are bullied left and right here for making sensible predictions, it's only human nature to come back and feel the temperature
there is no need to be so emotional anyway. I am sure Bitcoin will provide plenty of profit opportunities (probably in 2021 or 2022), but for 2020 it doesn't look good for the bulls.
