It is very difficult to win every match consistently in the Premier League. Because most Premier League teams have strong squads. Liverpool are now at the top of the table, but they are only 1 point ahead of Manchester City and 2 points ahead of Arsenal. So if Liverpool lose any of the matches, the team will likely drop to third place in the table.

I am looking forward to the Liverpool vs Manchester City match on March 10. Liverpool are going to face Nottingham Forest in their next match. And it will not be difficult for Liverpool to win this match. And if the Liverpool team is able to defeat Manchester City in the match on March 10, then the team can strengthen the top position of the table. But if this match is a draw then maybe we will see Arsenal team at the top of the table.
Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp have prepared themselves for the long run this season. The dates are approaching, and we're looking forward to seeing which clubs have developed to be competitive and strong enough to win big in matches. Manchester City does not welcome defeats lightly; they get desperate for wins even when they are not in a position to win big. These elite teams' matchups have become almost mandatory because winning is vital. The point differential between Liverpool and Manchester City is minimal, and we know how balanced both teams have evolved to be in the space.

Arsenal, Manchester City and Liverpool all have busier schedules ahead. Arsenal and Manchester City are competing for the Champions League title while Liverpool are playing for the Europa League title. So it is more difficult for these teams to win every match consistently.

The match between Liverpool and Manchester City will pretty much confirm which team deserves to win this season's title. Klopp and Guardiola are preparing their squad well for this match. However, many players in Liverpool's squad are injured. Salah, Nunez, Jota, Alexander Arnold and Alisson are injured. It will be challenging for Liverpool to perform well against Manchester City without so many key players.

Liverpool are still at the top of the standings with 60 points but now they will not be able to maintain the top of the standings safely because Manchester City have also bagged more wins with total of 59 points, their difference is only 1 point and this is very possible for shift to occur at any time.
If Liverpool really make mistake that causes defeat then they will definitely go down if Manchester City continues to win and can get full points in every match.
Manchester City and Arsenal are pre-eminent rival for their opposition. These teams have priorities and the best comes with stellar performance. Mistakes are made when a club doesn't stand strong enough to withstand the hurdles coming its way. But there are other means of implementing techniques in matches. There's full evidence of climbing higher on the table these present days. Jurgen Klopp is not in a rush because he knows to entangle and level up his team.  Liverpool knows how to climb top and give their opponents gap differences on the table. It's not easy for the Reds to maintain the long run for the EPL title.
Liverpool can only know how to climb and give gap yet they haven't been able gap Manchester city with much point, as we speak they are currently topping Manchester city with just 1 point and Arsenal with 2 points, since Liverpool started topping the table, the difference hasn't been much, no doubt about the fact that they've been really incredible for the past few months, and also in adding to their incredibility, they've been able to win the Carabao cup against Chelsea.  Jurgen klopp knows how Manchester City can be when they are at the top of the table, it will take almost a miracle for them to drop a point, so if there's anything he knows that he can do to keep on increasing the gap he should better start doing it.

In Lahore Qalandars vs Multan Sultans match, Multan Sultans are batting in the first innings and they have already lost 3 wickets. At the moment, the batting performance of Multan Sultan team is really amazing, if they continue to play like this in the end, then it will definitely be possible to collect 200 plus runs. And in today's match, the batsman of Multan Sultan team, Usman Khan, is in great form. He is batting to score a century. Usman Khan scored 79 runs off 45 balls, his batting performance looks like he is on his way to a century soon. However, the way Multan Sultan team is batting in today's match, it is expected that they will win. Right now their batting performance is good and their team runs 151 and lost 3 wickets in 15 overs.

As usual in today's match also we saw bad bowling from Lahore bowlers. Lahore captain Shaheen Shah Afridi used his 7 bowlers. But none of the bowlers could bowl well. Multan Sultans batsmen have collected 214 runs losing only 4 wickets. Even though Mohammad Rizwan failed to collect any runs today, every batsman after that batted well. USman Khan collected 96 runs off 55 balls. Iftikhar Ahmed was unbeaten with 40 runs off just 18 balls.

Although the target is huge, Lahore's batting order is very strong. Lahore batsmen have the ability to score 200+ runs. However, the chances of Lahore losing in this match are high. Multan Sultans bowlers are in good form. We have seen good bowling from the Multan bowlers in the previous matches as well.

Now this is a little surprising when we see Roma win in fact since the beginning of the match Torino managed to dominate in the attack, I don't know if this is only luck for Roma which is clearly 3 points is very needed. Roma is still trying to shift Atalanta in 5th position we know this is not easy because Atalanta also plays well so far but Roma still has a chance. This week Atalanta will play against Inter Milan as away team well, this is a good opportunity for Roma if Inter Milan beat Atalanta at least can bring Roma closer to 5th position.
The possibility of Atalanta winning at Inter Milan's home ground is very small because so far Inter Milan is still quite good among all the teams in the Italian League. So the opportunity for AS Roma to win the top five positions in the standings from Atalanta could be greater if Roma is able to win the next match and Atalanta is unable to win in the next match. Because the match at the beginning of next month for Atalanta will be against Bologna, who are currently also well beaten and are already in the top four of the Italian League standings.
Atalanta is in sublime form, not too inferior to Inter. Currently, Atalanta is standing very firmly in the Top 6, and if they win this round 21 make-up match, they will even rise to take 4th place from Bologna. However, besides being a guest, the disadvantage for Atalanta is that their confrontation record is not good against Inter. Surely, Inter continues to prove its strength. But that doesn't mean Roma can easily benefit from taking the 5th position. Roma should prepare well for their upcoming match against Monza. They will only have a chance to surpass Atalanta if they win their matches.

The Atalanta team is as strong as any. Atalanta are unbeaten in their last 10 matches. The performance of the team is stable. In the last match they managed to draw the away match against AC Milan 1-1. And that's why it will be challenging for Inter Milan to win against Atalanta right now.

However, according to the statistics, the Inter Milan team is considered to be the favorite. Inter Milan is strong in home matches. They have won 10 of their 12 home matches this season and lost just one. And Milan have beaten Atalanta in their last four head-to-head matches against Atalanta. Even then I'd say if Milan don't play well in this match they have a slim chance of getting the 3 points. While Inter Milan is a strong team, Atalanta's players are in a good rhythm right now.

In my opinion, Manchester City and Real Madrid will have no difficulty in the second leg and indeed their percentage of qualifying is very high.
I am looking forward to Arsenal's match against Porto and Bayern against Lazio, this will be interesting to look forward to because the potential for Arsenal and Bayern to turn things around is very big.

Arsenal, who will play at home, will be very favourites, they are only 1 goal behind and with the strength they have now I am very confident they will be able to turn things around.
This is not to underestimate Porto, but it must be admitted that Arsenal's quality is much better than Porto.
I think difference opportunity between Manchester City and Real Madrid on second legs match although both teams will playing on their home match, Manchester City has advantage by winning two margin goals after first leg defeated Copenhagen over 1-3 and seems easily for second leg match won over 2-0 or get draw. But difference position for Real Madrid because their margin only one goals and too risk for second leg match exactly RB Leipzig will playing more offensive on the early minutes.
But Madrid had impressive performance on every matches at their home, not difficult for defeating Madrid when playing in Santiago Bernabeu stadium and will be most crucial for Leipzig how possibility win over two goals.

Manchester City are not worried about their second leg match. They won the away match by 3-1. After winning by 2 goals, they are in safe place now. Manchester City will try to win the home match as well. But I think City will play a bit defensive strategy in this match. Because Guardiola would not want any player in his squad to face injury. Along with winning the Champions League title, the team is also trying to win the Premier League title.

Real Madrid secured a narrow 1-0 win in the away match. There is no doubt that Madrid are strong at home. However, some key players in Madrid's squad are injured. So it won't be easy for Madrid to beat Leipzig at home. I think this match will be very competitive.

I am waiting for the match between Lahore Qalandars and Multan Sultans. Lahore Qalandars have not won a single match this season. The team has been defeated in all 5 matches. On the other hand, Multan Sultans team is at the top of the table by winning 4 out of 5 matches. Although the batting order of Lahore Qalandars is strong, the team is lagging behind due to poor bowling. Multan team is very strong but if Lahore Qalandars bowlers can bowl well they have chances to win.

You are right. Lahore Qalandars lost every last match only because of their poor bowling. Lahore Qalandars set a target of 196 runs against Islamabad United. Islamabad United scored 200 runs in just 18.2 overs. Lahore Qalandars lost despite being given a target of 188 runs against Quetta Gladiators. Pesari Zalmi set a big target of 212 runs in the last match. The players of Lahore Qalandars managed to collect 203 runs in the match.

Multan Sultans are strong team. And they have a stable squad. Both the batsmen and bowlers of the squad are capable of performing well. So if the bowlers of Lahore Qalandars are not able to perform well in today's match then there is a high possibility of Lahore Qalandars being defeated. The win or loss of Lahore Qalandars depends on the performance of their bowlers.

People once again praised Harry Kane's great performance in last night's match after helping Bayern Munich secure victory at home with the brace he scored against Leipzig. Initially, it was quite doubtful to see Bayern Munich having so much trouble against Leipzig, even though if you look at the meeting as a whole, Bayern Munich can always dominate the results with a landslide victory.
But what we saw last night makes us know that Bayern Munich are not in good condition after the two consecutive defeats they received and they have to try their best to secure 3 points at home. Luckily they have a great striker who they managed to recruit last summer and he became the hero in this match. Harry Kane has currently collected 27 with Bayern Munich and it is certain that he will be the Bundesliga's top scorer this season.
This is a heavy burden that Harry Kane has to carry, even though he is the current top scorer in the Bundesliga, he still cannot provide a trophy for the club he is playing for.  Harry Kane still has to bring Bayern to fight in the UCL, this is Bayern's big goal of buying Harry Kane from Tottenham, but if in this early season he still can't bring Bayern to become a dominant team in all leagues then that is still very natural.
Bayern Munich's overall performance is poor. I don't want to blame Harry Kane. We have seen great performances from Harry Kane since the start of the season. Kane even scored two goals in the last match against Leipzig. Kane scored 27 goals and 5 assists in 23 matches in the Bundesliga. Scored 4 goals and 3 assists in 7 Champions League matches.

The main reason for Bayern Munich's erratic performance is their match strategy. Bayern Munich have a strong squad. But the condition of this team is not good because of the match strategy. Munich won a big 7-0 home match against Bochum. But it was against this team that Munich lost 3-2 in the away match. If the match strategy was better, Munich's performance would have been more consistent.
Harry Kane's number of goals for Bayern Munich since he joined them is impressively excellent of you ask me ajd for a player that's currently scored more league goals than any player in any of the top five leagues in Europe, it's absolutely insane for anyone to say that he is the reason behind Bayern Munich's inconsistent results this season. The England international is yet to win a trophy with any club as a professional footballer and that's why a lot of people are of the opinion that it's because of his presence that Bayern Munich aren't winning games they're supposed to win.

However, for someone that's been following the development of the England national team captain since he joined Bayern Munich,  I know that the Harry Kane is giving his all for the club. Yesterday, he scored two important goals and one of them was even scored in the stoppage time to help Bayern Munich grab all three points from their league game against  Leipzig and to also keep their title hopes alive even when they know it'll be very difficult to stop Bayer Leverkusen from winning the German Bundesliga at the end of the current season

Harry Kane is very unlucky. He was with Tottenham for a long time. But did not win any title. After Harry Kane joined Bayern Munich we thought Harry Kane would win Bundesliga and Champions League titles with Munich. But at the moment it is very difficult, almost impossible, for Munich to win these two titles. But we can't blame Harry Kane as the reason. Harry Kane's performance is very good. He is scoring a lot of goals as well as making a lot of assists. Harry Kane's relationship with the players is quite good. So why do we blame Harry Kane?

I would say Thomas Tuchel is responsible for Bayern Munich's plight. Munich's performance has been erratic since he took over. Even in the final season, the team's performance was very erratic. They were very lucky that Munich won the title last season. Munich should now look for a new coach.
248  Economy / Speculation / Re: As Bitcoin Prepare for more Bull, What's your Decision on: February 26, 2024, 05:28:08 AM
This is each person's decision whether they want to take advantage or not. But taking a little profit to buy something you want is normal. We still hold Bitcoin and that is guaranteed for a long period of time until a new ATH is reached. And have cash reserves to repurchase from the sales profits. You have to be smart about how to manage, when to take advantage and when to hold back.
I think you've warned me about one thing, exploiting price volatility is certainly a good one to consider. Between cycles, we will definitely get bullish and bearish, even trend changes can also be used to get more returns. Becoming a holder without selling until the target is reached is an option, but several other strategies are also profitable.

Sell some bitcoin during bull market is never bad thing, you are certainly right that we need to enjoy it and buy what we want. As long as we still have assets for the long term, it is not a problem to withdraw some profits to meet our needs.

We must not forget what our purpose is when investing in bitcoin. Is it for profit, is it to improve the quality of life? So, there is nothing wrong for us to make profits and sell our bitcoins to serve and enjoy for our lives. Investing and holding bitcoin is something we must not forget as the bull season is approaching but that does not mean we should stop all our family's daily needs just to focus 100% on bitcoin.
Bull season is coming, bitcoin will make a new ATH, but can anyone guarantee that will definitely happen or is it just our prediction? So don't lose balance in your life just because of bitcoin.
249  Economy / Speculation / Re: 60k possible before end of this month? on: February 26, 2024, 04:25:56 AM
From the look out of things there is no doubt that $60k is sure before the end of this month February reason being that bitcoin has surpasses the price of 50k and headed to $52k if I am not mistakenly and you can correct me if I am wrong. 
Also does this proves the idea of most people saying that bitcoin could hit half a million dollars after the halving by 2025, does this sign proves it right?

Let us discuss.

I don't see $60k anytime soon due to how poor the market movement have been in past few weeks since after hitting $50k. It has been from $50-52k and it doesn't look like it will even get to $55k before the end of this month and I feel that this month has given us what it can, who knows by next month we might see a rapid raise of Bitcoin price but not in this February ending.

For me, the market is doing very well in the past weeks but it's not as bad as you think. Although bitcoin has not had a breakout in February, it remains in the 49k-52k area and with it bitcoin dominance is trending downward. That means it is giving way to altcoins and you can also see that after ETH crossed $3k many altcoins are doing well again. The market is still very stable for people to seek profits, but money flows continuously move into different ecosystems. So people with knowledge and experience will make a lot of profit during this time.

As for bitcoin, I think there will be no breakout this February, but before the halving, bitcoin will have some good growth and there will be a post-halving correction.
250  Economy / Speculation / Re: A new ATH before halving. Is it possible? on: February 26, 2024, 04:04:58 AM
A new ATH from this position is very much on the cards. Institutional demand is increasing, and the recent rally is proof. The possibility of BTC touching $69k can not be ruled out. If the current trends continue, the chances of reaching ATH are high. The global economic recession might become a limiting factor.

The question is when we are going to hit the all time high, prior to halving or post halving? We are surely over the all time high but it is hard to predict the timing of this. Personally, i would not want Bitcoin to reach all the way to all time high without correction. If this happens, then believe me the bitcoin bull market target will be considerably low as compared to the scenario if bitcoin takes a 20 to 30% correction before taking over the all time high.

The corrections are healthy for the markets and they reset a lot of counters which are hindrances for the price to move ahead, a lot ahead. I think that it is best interest of everyone that bitcoin breaks all time high after halving.

Yes, bitcoin will almost certainly reach a new ATH but what many people are concerned about is whether it comes sooner or later.

Personally, I think we have had more than 2 years to accumulate bitcoin since bitcoin dropped to $15k until now. So those who believe in bitcoin, I think they have accumulated enough bitcoin for themselves in the last 2 years. Therefore, whether bitcoin reaches a new ATH before halving or after halving is not so important.

Those who don't want the bull season to come early are mostly because they still want to accumulate more bitcoins, but for those who want the bull season to come early, they have everything ready, IMO.

252  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Please stop blaming "the government" for lack of Bitcoin mass payment adoption on: February 25, 2024, 09:30:50 AM
Bitcoin was never supposed to replace fiat and become the primary method of payment for everything in the world, it was created to become an alternative for peer-to-peer transactions that would provide complete privacy and decentralization to its users whereas traditional financial systems fail badly at this because you can't do anything with your finances without them knowing because the current financial platforms you use are centralized and are always under supervision.
People that think Bitcoin can replace cash and become the primary mode of payment for everything and there will be no fiat currencies anymore should understand that this isn't going to happen. However, Bitcoin has it's advantages over the centralized financial platforms.

Satoshi also never mentioned whether bitcoin would replace or completely destroy the current monetary system. These misunderstandings are largely of our own making and have spread to this day. Many people feel disgusted with fiat, banks and they worship bitcoin, from there they propagate that bitcoin will defeat the government monetary system. But because of this inaccurate propaganda, it has also unintentionally caused misunderstandings between banks, governments and bitcoin. They believe that bitcoin is a real threat and there have been many bans of bitcoin over the years.

Personally, I think that even if bitcoin does not become an asset like what is happening, bitcoin will never be able to become the main currency of the world, it will never happen. As long as the government still controls this world, bitcoin or any coin will never become the main currency without recognition.

It is difficult to know what level of adoption bitcoin has, and I have my doubts that it has even reached 1% of the world's population, even though we have rich folks and rich institutions currently coming into bitcoin, including some of them entering through the newly approved Spot ETFs.  These guys are neither imuned from gambling tendencies or making mistakes of the past, including but not limited to mistakes made that led up to a lot of the 2022 cascading crashes of Terra/Luna, Celsius, Blockfi, 3AC, Voyager, FTX, Alameda Research,  Genesis (perhaps involving Grayscale) and probably some others that I am forgetting about...

Alts are launched with so many attractive features. They roam around for sometimes and then lost in the darkness forever. I had a crush on MATIC (POLYGON) last year after reading its features like side chains, low fees and more. The token is still there but wasn't able to take off despite so much marketing about its attractive features and now the team is launching new token with new features to generate more capital. The story may be different for other alts but the aim of all Alts are more or less same. There is no Alt that has survived the length of Bitcoin.



To be honest, altcoin projects do not offer any attractive features at all. They all always emphasize cheap transaction fees and fast transaction speeds, but other than that, I don't see anything outstanding that really deserves our attention. But if just to get cheap fees and fast transaction speed but lose the decentralized nature, do you need it? So if there are any altcoins that can create a blockchain with cheap transaction fees and fast speeds while retaining the decentralized nature of bitcoin then they will truly excel. Otherwise they are nothing worth our attention.

For me, altcoins used for speculation or gambling are more suitable. We can take advantage of our knowledge to speculate and should leave after making a profit. Don't believe any promises made by any altcoin.
254  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will BTC hit 1M ? on: February 25, 2024, 08:02:59 AM
It will definitely hit 1M, but yes we just don’t know when. It can happen in 1 year or 10 years also. Everything depends on the demand raised by the people to accumulate the coin. Few years back no one thought Bitcoins will cross 1000$, but currently Bitcoins have become the most valuable digital asset. So we just need to keep calm and show faith in the coin. Just accumulate and hold it for few years. Definitely you will see the profits.

Most of us knows that Bitcoin will hit $1M but the real question which no one could answer is when? When would it hit that figure? Because people are impatient and even if they know that Bitcoin will touch $1M in ten years and if there is a slight drop in price they would end up selling out of panic. I don't think most of us would hodl Bitcoin from now until $1M. Best would be doing DCA until it reaches $1M but with our own deadline as we might not be able to wait our whole life.
If bitcoin can maintain its growth rate, it is entirely possible for bitcoin to reach $1 million. But you are right, the problem here is that not too many people will be able to hold bitcoin until it reaches 1 million USD because we all need money for our lives. Our goal when investing in bitcoin is to find profits to serve our lives, so when we need money we will have to sell it.

Also, I want people to realize that even if we cannot hold bitcoin until it reaches $1 million, we should still invest in it even if it is worth $1 million. As long as bitcoin is volatile, we still have the opportunity to profit from it, so I hope newbies understand this well enough to know that it is never too late to invest in bitcoin.

Understandably, Alonso’s services are in demand on the back of this. Liverpool and Bayern, two of his clubs from his playing days, will be looking for new managers at the end of the season, and the Spaniard is reportedly high on their respective shortlists.

I believe it is almost certain that the new coach of Bayern Munich is going to be Xabi Alonso. In my opinion, he does not have any other far better options, to be honest. Maybe he can about Barcelona as a good option. But as a Real Madrid player, I do not think he's going to do that. Manchester United is also another option but seem to be still liking Ten Hag. I honestly do not see any other good options for him other than Bayern Munich.

Do you guys think if he does not get a good offer he will stay at Leverkusen? I think if he gets an offer from Bayern Munich he should accept it.

This game between Bayern Munich and the Redbull team could be a decisive for the title. Leipzig is one of the team that could stop Bayern in Allianz arena.
20 minutes into the game and there's not much difference on the gameplay of the two teams. Blaswich made a good save in 5th minute denying Bayren a goal.
For Leipzig, it is also important to take a lead against Dortmund who are threatening their place on the champions league. This is going to be a tougher battle for the two.
A few more moments of the first half will end, and the score is still 0-0 for both teams. Bayern Munich struggled to break through the defense built by Leipzig, they could hardly even create a chance even in this first half. Although they controlled the game, it was not enough to make them get a good result in this match.

I think in the second half they must evaluate and improve their strategy to be even more effective. Because Leipzig seems to be ready with all the pressure they will receive from Bayern Munich in this match.

Right now Bayern Munich is not playing really well, to be honest. Bayern Munich has lost two Bundesliga matches in a row. And Leverkusen has taken that chance to make the point difference pretty big.

Bayern Munich will have to win today's match against Leipzig. And remember Leipzig is not an easy opponent. But Bayern Munich will have to win this match to make sure that the defense of points stays in single digits. If Bayern Munich drops point in this match or loses this match, it is going to be a problem for them. If they cannot make sure they get three points against Leipzig, I will have to say that Leverkusen might run away with things. And that difference is probably going to be almost impossible for Bayern Munich to recover.

~snip~

I really don't understand some websites. Sometimes they write like a player is injured and won't play. But on matchday we see that player in the starting eleven or on the bench... They should be more careful with sharing news.
It would be very bad if Salah got injured again when the team was in a position like this. Liverpool must win all their matches if they want to become premier league champions. They are hunting for the title with City. We know City is a very dangerous rival and they will try to displace Liverpool from the top of the standings. But as you said, sometimes the media writes that players are injured but actually it's just a minor injury. I'm not interested in the EFL Cup but I hope Salah can play in all the remaining games in the Premier League.
I do agree that Salah is a very important part of Liverpool team and without him they are not going to be all that amazing. However, they should start looking to replace him already, they replaced almost everyone in that team and yet they are not really making any strides, that just doesn't make sense to me at all.

I understand that they are not looking all that crazy at the moment, but they are at least trying their best one way or another. I think the most important thing right now would be just making sure that it is not going to be all that much mattering eventually. I believe that we are going to end up with some troubles if Salah is not replaced soon, dude is getting older and has to be replaced eventually.

Salah is a very important piece of the puzzle for Liverpool. And I believe Liverpool is also very lucky to get the service of a player like him. But at the same time, I absolutely agree as well that they should really be looking forward for a replacement as soon as possible. I really wonder how it is going to be after Jurgen Klopp. This is a news that even got me to be a little sad and I am not a big Liverpool fan.

Anyway coming back to the point of Muhammad Salah being replaced, yes it has to be done. And if Liverpool is available to find a suitable replacement, they will genuinely suffer for a period of time.

I think you are getting something wrong here. Bitcoin is the crypto itself. Every other coins you see today were built around bitcoin. Many people only know bitcoin when they hear the word crypto. There are people out there today who doesn't know that other coins exist, so when they hear about crypto the first thing that comes to their mind is bitcoin. Bitcoin is the crypto currency, if you are not aware of this know it today. If he had mentioned alt coins then you can say he is referring to other coins. So @Michelle is not talking out of point when he used the  word crypto. If you see a newbie that has no knowledge about bitcoin investment, ask him or her what is crypto, I bet you the person will mention bitcoin.
We are analyzing the price change of Bitcoin, we determine when the right time for buying Bitcoin. I think it is the point of this thread.
The point of this thread is not to analyze the price change of bitcoin, just as @Tmoonz told you. The point of this thread is to buy bitcoin and hold it for the long term using the DCA strategy so that you do not want to time the market before you can start accumulating your bitcoin, which can delay your bitcoin accumulation journey. With the DCA strategy, you can accumulate your bitcoin even when the bitcoin price is increasing or decreasing because you will be buying at regular intervals.

Maybe some forget about hodling is different on trading since they think if they can wait for a dip on bitcoin then they can possibly earn a lot of profit. But they fail to realize that what if they can't find the dip that they are waiting for and they always doubt about the dump happen then for sure they would miss a lot of opportunity to buy. So instead of stressing up their selves and want to make their hodl journey successful then much better if they just forget about the trading aspects of bitcoin and they should focus to learn how they can execute the DCA method or just buy bitcoin when they feel that they are ready to accumulate for hodl purposes. If they are worried about it since they have small capital then over time for little by little accumulating for sure their balances will grow.

I know some people in my locality didn't buy bitcoin when it dropped to 20k-15k$ in 2022 because they waited for it to drop to 12k-10k$. And the irony is that up to now bitcoin has increased to more than 50 thousand dollars in their regret but they are still waiting and have not bought any bitcoin. They are still desperately waiting that there will be a black swan that causes bitcoin to plummet again.

If they are not greedy and do not put pressure on themselves, and they use the DCA strategy from 2022 until now. I bet they are making significant profits and sleeping soundly because they bought bitcoin at the most ideal price using the DCA strategy.

Cryptocurrency prices have increased by 118% compared to last year. Similarly, prices are increasing by almost 83% in the last 04 months.The dramatic history price of Bitcoin peaks and the recent buzz around its upcoming "halving" its only fair to pose the most obvious question in front of us that-
Did the Bitcoin flight already leave investors? or is there still time to buy a ticket?

The attractions of Bitcoin investments has always been double the potential for significant returns and its suggested role as digital gold.Historically Bitcoin has rewarded the bold to investors. For the next "halving" currently on track for April, another bull run seems highly likely. Recent price gains although this potential wave should take Bitcoin to a whole other level as it did after the May 2020, July 2016 and November 2012.

OP, it seems that you are answering your own question. Since you are so sure that there's going to be a bull run after the BTC halving, why are you even asking? I can assume that you are one of the people, who are interested of Bitcoin only because of the price and the potential future profits. There's nothing wrong with this, but it kinda proves that Bitcoin is simply another tool of the "casino capitalism" rather than an actual currency. Maybe that's why Satoshi Nakamoto left the Bitcoin world. He didn't want Bitcoin to become a casino capitalism tool, but it was too late for him to change anything.
I don't know why he left the bitcoin world, maybe for the reason you mentioned or for the safety of him and his family…But I bet that even if he stayed with bitcoin, he wouldn't be able to change anything. He is the creator of bitcoin but the community is the one who has the power to decide what bitcoin is, bitcoin is decentralized, don't forget that. No one turns bitcoin into an investment other than us, the current bitcoin investors.

Furthermore, have you ever wondered if bitcoin is as stable as currency and not profitable? Could it become as popular as it is today? Because as I see it, 99% of people are attracted to bitcoin because of the profit, which is the top reason why people are interested in bitcoin.

Question please: was the official question on me necessary? And was it wrong of me letting her know that I am a BTC investor? My conscience just keep saying "Hello man, you fucked up talking about BTC out there".
this is the reality of most persons when you're doing banking with with most of this institution because they must try to know what you're doing for a living and to be on a safer side, it's best you tell them that you have multiple streams of income and that you're into business while you do a bit of crypto trading

If it is in my country, except the person has an alterio motive if not, once you tell them what you do for a living most of them won't disturb you any further except you look and sound suspicious.

It's not out of place for them to ask what you do for a living, as a matter of fact it is part of thier duties to ascertain what thier  customers does for a living so they can help the government and security agencies reduce the number of criminals in the land

But is it right to let others know that you are trading bitcoin or are a bitcoin investor? Furthermore, what if bitcoin is illegal in OP's country? We can give any reason but being too honest with them and saying you are a bitcoin investor is not advisable. Not to mention the other risks you face is becoming a target for others when they know you own bitcoin. Surely you have heard a few stories related to kidnapping, extortion, and property theft related to bitcoin. So OP telling the banker that he is a bitcoin investor is the same as him telling a stranger. This is absolutely not a wise move.
