    So for investor idiots like myself.  Are you saying hold onto your crypto?

    Big money usually = smart money. smart money are buying crypto for the next few years, you always want to bet with the smart money.

    So, yes.

    Fed announcement on inflation due later today. If hawkish, I expect crypto market to dip later today and tomorrow.

    FFS I'm still £1200-1300, down across the board even with the recent rally. Annoyingly I bought in to Internet Computer a few weeks ago at what I thought was a good price. Sadly it remains at lower than 50% of my buy-in price. Think I need a new hobby!

    Just hold.  I’m down, but you cannot have companies buying up $500m worth of btc that will be on their balance sheet unless it at some point will go up again.  The tide is turning for crypto currency to become a valuable asset that a lot of money folk will want to hold as an asset.  The volatility will likely be here for a while, you may see your holdings drop even further, but do not sell.  I am new to all this, have sold in the red because I panicked, but having sat through the huge drop that happened a few weeks ago, and not sold, it’s possible to ride storms out.

    Have faith

    my 2c FWIW.

    Trading bitcoin you either buy with a view to a long term (potentially years) of holding, or you trade in and out and set sensible stop losses and profit take amounts.

    If you are doing the former and on the basis you know the risks, just buy, leave and stop looking daily at the price charts! Maybe to be safe stick a sell price at 3/4/5 times or whatever your original price was.

    worries about inflation etc might be good for bitcoin though. Why keep your money in an inflationary asset (US Dollar) when you can put it into a deflationary one (bitcoin).

    Think another dip is kicking in.  Good for Microstrategy and the $500m purchase

    Anyone care to predict how low BTC will go, in the short term?

    Finger in the air time!

    Easy to forget where it's come from, 12 months ago was sub $10k, I could see it dropping back there. So that probably means we'll be at 80K before the end of July  :D

    I agree.  I respect your stance covered end.  I just think that if the whole thing was about to go to s*** like that guy tweets, what CEO of a company would risk holding $500m of btc on his balance sheet, like Saylor is about to do at Microstrategy. As I understand it, one of the btc mining companies is also going to be listing in the U.S on Monday.

    Warnings about volatility, risk and bear markets are useful contributions, as crypto social media is an echo chamber, but warnings about the whole thing dying on its arse and disappearing are starting to become redundant imo

    They’ve been redundant for years. If bitcoin would’ve died, it would’ve died on its first or second crash. It won’t now hedge funds will have 7% of their funds in crypto.

    Although I agree with burry’s fundamental point, that theres a lot of overvalued tech stocks - Tesla, a company who’s only profit has ever been selling bitcoin being a prime example - and I don’t think Bitcoin will be immune from this crash, at all. But disappear? Nah, just gonna buy more bitcoin.

    just to add to this - we're in the midst of a worldwide silicon shortage, yet tech stocks continue to go up... Something is going to give at some point if this continues.

    I don't doubt and have always maintained that Bitcoin and a few cryptos will survive and possibly thrive in the long term. It's many of the others cryptos that will struggle to survive, just like the dot com bubble.
