Man what happened to prompt the pumpage.

I’m here for it but the only news I see is a hit piece by the NYT

Coin desk and twitter aren’t going to be pumping anything to overtake bitcoin as alpha. You misunderstood my post I think

Damn near all the pumps lately from the low 20s have been no news driven spot buying. Makes me believe either a large net worth individual, company, or country is buying (or a combo)

The recent narrative is that people are putting their money in BTC instead of banks, but I don't know if that tracks in reality.

I'd guess it has a little with forcing you to keep some and the max gas fee for your transaction.

I wonder how much former SVB depositors bought BTC in the last few weeks.

Lets get some breathing room before the bumps start happening. It can too easily drop $10k in a week like its nothing as history has showed us

I would like to see a new ATH before I start quoting all the posts I have bookmarked.

With the halfening in one year, you won't be waiting long.

I'm happy I was able to increase my holdings sub 20k.

isn't roughly ~Decemberish 2025 the next expected major bull run/ATH? I think I bokmarked a graph on here a while back that showed end of the year in 17/21 followed that pattern

We might be deep into a recession in one year.. not so sure we'll see prices skyrocket from this happening if that's the case. Not until we come out of a recession, at least.

$20,000 BTC is going to look like a STEAL when we start the next cycle. As to when that is, no idea. This article touches on it.

I don't disagree. However, the narrative of the failing USD seems to be picking up steam. I could see gold and BTC running hard over the next 12 months as more people learn about the importance of hard money.

Thanks for that link. I think these snippets from that article are what I had in my brain:

quote:

The bitcoin price tends to spike even higher, in the months that follow halving.

After the halving of May 11, 2020, the cryptocurrency rallied 688.31% in the following 546 days, reaching a then record high of $67,549.14 on Nov. 8, 2021


quote:

The halving before that, which took place on Jul. 9, 2016, saw bitcoin skyrocket 2,824% to a then all-time high of $19,065.71 by mid-December 2017.


So it looks like in November/Decmber following the halvings (2017 and 2021 in this case) is when it achieved record ATHs. As someone who is a very tiny entrant in the sapce I need to pick and choose carefully when I buy or sell so I've got my sights set on november/decmeber of 2025 as my next big move.

Hmm If halvening is earlier than May then maybe October is the sell month?

yall are making it too complicated. Just DCA. Trying to "pick" spots" hardly works out.

Too many random fud events from now until "then" to time it.
