Is that a monthly chart? Try looking at the weeklies. I don’t use trend lines, just support and resistance levels buy looking at where the bounces are and where there’s resistance. Anyway, around 30k is the next support which I think is solid btw and I don’t think price goes below that. But since anything could happen the next one where there’s a little bit of support is 16k which could easily break down. The next one is... *gulp* ... around 10k. But I couldn’t imagine it going back down there. No way... The market won’t allow it... Somebody will catch the falling knife. Unless Saylor fakes cancer and is nowhere to be seen while BTC is selling down hard.  IDK why but I found it very funny lmao. About the chart, yes it's a monthly one. Also, Weekly support is Indeed 30k which I see can break down if US Market keeps crashing. Let's see how it plays out Ah yeah... If US markets start selling down hard and mark the end of the bull market then yeah, it will drag everything down with it including crypto. But I’m still hopeful the market has something left before full on bear mode. I think BTC could still bounce to around 45k then go down and hopefully form a higher low before resuming to a nice trend back up. If not, it’s either we down below 30k or go sideways prolly between 30k and 40k for a while. Dunno. That’s just how I feel like it’s going to happen from watching it all these years. |

I think that it will be.
The ETH team knows that the community will be waiting for the merge, and if it continues to delay the launch of 2.0 then people will become skeptical and potentially pull out of ETH as time goes on.
Whether or not it delivers the promise of much lower fees is yet to be seen, though. I personally think that it will, but it will never lower fees to the point where retail investors can make transactions without thinking about gas.
I hope so. Otherwise, people will continue to lose interest in ETH until it goes all the way down the drain. Considering that we're still in a bear market, the release of ETH 2.0 will have little to no impact over Ethereum's price. Fees will decline, but only within the short term as network capacity stays at its All-time-high. For gas fees to remain low forever, developers need to constantly scale the Blockchain to meet users' needs. L2 (off-chain) and Sharding scaling solutions are ETH's only hope to remain as scalable as possible without compromising decentralization. Competing chains like Solana and BNB may be much more faster and cheaper to use than ETH itself, but their security/reliability is extremely weak (especially Solana). I'd prefer to pay a high fee on ETH knowing that my transaction will go through, than paying a low fee on another chain with the risk of losing it all due to a network disruption or hack. People often prefer convenience on top of security/reliability/decentralization, so they wouldn't care more or less about this. There isn't an exact date for the launch of ETH 2.0, so this opens up the possibility for developers to continue delaying the upgrade to meet their needs. At least, we're not stuck on a single chain. Just my opinion  Wtf are you guys saying? Lol. Continue to lose interest in ETH? If anything, ETH’s staying power has been very impressive despite the high fees. It’s still up there at second place at CMC, it’s still one of the most traded coins in the market, it still has the largest community of developers in the space and all that isn’t even done yet. It’s all still growing. But as a preference of which chain you should be using, if you’re a whale, sure go use L1. Fees can get really pricey esp doing stuff like when swapping tokens. It goes as high as 100 USD for a transaction. If you’re not a whale, just use one of the L2’s. |

Hamilton is obviously nearing his retirement but I would have loved it if he raced for 2 or 3 years more as he is still on his peak form. But we also have to think in his POV as everyone wants to retire while being the best. So this teaser from Merc could mean that Kimi could return but once again, nothing is official now. All I can say is that we enjoy Hamilton racing as long as we have the privilege to do so. I just read the article where they quoted Wolff, and from his words it looked like Hamilton had already retired pending an official confirmation which is really very said if it turns out to be true. Lastly I can understand he feels betrayed due to what happened in the final race, but I believed that he could race for one more year win the title and then call it quits, but day by day it looks we won’t be seeing him again. No way... I mean why make a big fuss out of it esp with how his season ended last year? If Hamilton really had retired I think we would’ve had an announcement without giving out any hints about it. Maybe that’s what they want us to think to get more attention before they finally unveil their car. Dunno... It seems like it’s a little too late for that. Who would replace him? But then again if he really did retire and has yet to announce it, it would be a sad season for me for different reasons. Lolol. Since he’s gotten so good, I love hating the guy. |

No UFC this weekend so we’re forced to watch the b league, which I really don’t mind. I just wanna see these guys throw leather. Bellator 273 is in the menu. https://www.tapology.com/fightcenter/events/85140-bellator-273-bader-vs-moldavskyI really don’t know most of these guys except Bader and Benson Henderson but from what I’ve noticed in Bellator, the bouts are usually a mismatch. The favorite really is the favorite which makes these matches very parlayable. But there will be one pie shitter in there or two. |

Ranieri has been sacked by Watford He was manager of Watford for less than 3 months during which time they played 13 premier league games which could have given them a maximum of 39 points but all they managed was 7 points and are in serious danger of relegation.  Just saw this follow up post. Exactly! That’s two managerial changes in one season. Lol. That time was really hard for Watford and they are in serious danger of being relegated. Watford seems to approach Roy Hodgson to be their new manager. Though Roy Hodgson retired after last season he is coming back to take the responsibility of being the manager of Watford. Maybe he will be able to to keep them out of the relegation zone. Details: https://amp.theguardian.com/football/2022/jan/25/watford-roy-hodgson-new-managerI guess he’s a good choice if he chooses to stay beyond this season in case they do get relegated. They’ll be needing a good enough manager to bring them up back to the EPL as soon as possible. But Watford has him only until the end of the season so they’ll be lost again right after relegation. It was Newcastle that chose well. They got Eddie Howe as a safe choice. A decent enough manager who could take the club mid table next season if they stay up and a great manager in the Championship if they go down. |

^ Wait.. I don’t get it. At the UFC Strike site it’s 50 bucks. But who listed those UFC NFT’s at Opensea for .25 ETH? Lol. Just a random buyer? And why multiple copies of Ngannou, Fig and Moreno? Are those the common ones? Lol. I guess the rare ones worth buying are the Khabib, GSP or Nate Diaz ones? I’d def want me one of those... Even an Anderson Silva one. Those def worth more than 50 bucks.
For 50 bucks you get 3 random NFTs. They can be anything But for 0.25 ETH you will get a rare Ngannou NFT. All the NFT on opensea are listed by UFC, probably . At least this Ngannou NFT has a video, while others are just pictures. As I understood, rare NFT will those that has a small video, and common are just pictures. What makes me disappointed, the fact that I have found 2 NFS UFC Strike #37 and UFC Strike #29. Their series numbers are different, but they show same UFC fight moment. Oh... Lol. No way I’m paying .25 ETH for an Ngannou NFT. I mean compared to legends like Khabib, Anderson Silva, GSP or even Royce Gracie, who is Ngannou? Name value is low. I would think Brock Lesnar has higher name value than him due to a larger fan base outside of MMA. I think Nate Diaz would hold more value as an NFT. And I think it’s a mistake that the UFC chose to have their NFT’s in a relatively unknown blockchain. They’d be better off in Ethereum or in one of the L2’s. I mean who would bridge coins to Flow just to get those NFT’s. |

Monero is the only other coin I hold. And it is a slave to bitcoin. The chances of it flipping bitcoin as are the generally popular narratives out there are fairly outlandish in my opinion. Nuance: I am not belittling those with whom I disagree about this. But I continue to hold some value in Monero because I believe it is extremely undervalued, and in time will be worth much more.
Yup, def no chance XMR goes no. 1 at CMC esp if we look at where it’s at right now. I had a different opinion tho during 2017. Lmao. And it was the reason why I traded most of my BTC for XMR. I thought the next years would be a slow grinding climb to at least the top 3. But no... It never really gained any serious traction unlike ETH. But ETH tho could do a flippening. All the stuff that I thought were real all really didn’t matter. If you guys have watched enough of Bitcoin Uncensored, you would know what I mean. Even De Rose himself was saying he doesn’t know if it matters anymore. And for being undervalued, sure. |

That was a wise decision for him because it would allow him to gain more experience from playing in Juventus team for 3-4 years before considering moving abroad. A few hours ago, the official bid was submitted. Almost done between Juventus and Fiorentina for Vlahovic.
They have a deal almost on everything, Fiorentina is waiting for the official offer.
Cristian Eriksen's heart disease could end his career in football, even though it was rumored that Cristian Eriksen was ready to be signed by the Brenford club, and there were rumors that the Newcastle club also wanted his services. Given his circumstances, Brentford would be a better fit for him to begin with, since he would be well-managed. Newcastle United is not a suitable option right now because they are fighting for relegation and may expect a lot of him, which he does not need at this point in his life. With Brentford following a money ball-esque strategy for acquiring and selling players in transfer market, I don’t think Eriksen fits the bill. Dunno.. But I haven’t looked into it yet. He’s prolly available for free and would agree to lower than his usual wages at Inter? But I have to say, he would be very lucky to play at any club that’s playing top tier football be it the EPL, La Liga, Bundesliga, etc, etc. I hope he goes to Brentford but I don’t think he’ll last more than a couple of seasons. They can’t risk somebody dying on the pitch in the middle of a match. |

RESULTS:
Arsenal 0-0 Burnley
Chelsea 2-0 Tottenham Hotspur
Crystal Palace 1-3 Liverpool
Leicester City 1-1 Brighton and Hove Albion
Bottom of the table Burnley got a very important point at Arsenal because are fighting to stay in the Premier League. Arsenal could have strengthened their case for a top 4 finish but they dropped points.
Chelsea beat Tottenham to go 10 points behind leaders Manchester City and 1 point behind second placed Liverpool. Chelsea have played 2 games more than 4th placed Manchester United and are 9 points ahead therefore by winning the games in hand Manchester United could end up being just 3 points behind Chelsea.
Liverpool won 1-3 but if that penalty decision was not given towards the end of the game Crystal Palace were pushing for an equaliser. It was a bad decision by the referee to award a penalty to Liverpool after he was instructed by VAR to look at the pitch-side monitor, it was definitely not a penalty.
In the case of Burnley tho, they’re like 4 matches behind because postponement due to covid. And out of those 4, they could prolly get three points vs Everton and a point each from Aston Villa and Leicester City. That’s best case scenario. So assuming that, they should be around a couple of places higher in the table. And it’s really impressive how Burnley is sticking with Sean Dyche. It’s very unlike modern football, esp the football we know around the 2010s. Ranieri has been sacked by Watford He was manager of Watford for less than 3 months during which time they played 13 premier league games which could have given them a maximum of 39 points but all they managed was 7 points and are in serious danger of relegation. Just saw this follow up post. Exactly! That’s two managerial changes in one season. Lol. |

From the very beginning it was known that Ngannou's advantage is his strength and a monstrously strong blow. I thought if the fight ended positively for Ngannou it would be a knockout on Gane after a very heavy hit. Unfortunately, Gane let me down a bit, because I was betting on him this fight. I think he lacked some speed and certainly luck.
Dana White was a bit unprofessional as he should have put this belt on. As you write, there is definitely something wrong between them.
I don't know about you but in my opinion, the speed of Ciryl Gane is very visible he surely dodges most of Ngannou's critical strikes, in fact, if we look at the stats of the fight, Ciryl Gane has more total strikes percentage than Ngannou, and has the more significant strikes percentage and even though Francis Ngannou has most of the takedowns he doesn't seem to attempt any submission moves, but Ciryl Ganes has more attempts on the submission and really wants to finish Ngannou on the ground, I really think Ciryl Gane deserves more points on the 5th round than Ngannou, I think Submission attempts have a significant score on the ground, but a rematch will sure do in my opinion. 
Ngannou really improved his skills which he now has the grappling. I thought it would just be clash of strength in the middle that will last in the 1st round but the two had shown thier technicality with thier strategy. I couldn't even find a really heavy and clean shot by Ngannou to put Gane down except after taking down Gane.
Hard to make Dana and Ngannou shake hands again. It will go down to one of the fighters Dana let go and might regret. He let go Fedor before all because of a shirt to wear so Ngannou will be no different, he can see him be a threat anymore. If he bends to give Francis what he wants everyone will also demand their pay.
I really don't consider Francis Ngannou as a grappler, but he does improve on his takedown, with that strength he has shown, in lifting Ciryl Gane kudos to that, and finally using his strength in good use, but apparently, if he added a submission attempt to his arsenal I think he could really end the match faster, and winning it with a submission, but my boy Ciryl Gane wants a rematch and feels sad if Francis Ngannou would leave UFC without another fight, and I think Ciryl Gane has learned a lot, and his 1st defeat could be an eye-opener for him and will still bet for Ciryl Gane next time they brawl. This is what Dana White is afraid of happening, he really wants Ciryl Gane to win so badly, to discard Francis Ngannou on the side, but I guess there is a side on me that feel happy that Francis Ngannou won, so Francis Ngannou has a certain ability to demand a high payment and to really change that small paycheck every fighter is getting, well I hope it could Deliver and I am waiting what Dana White would say to this. ^ Why doesn’t Dana White just pay Ngannou his due..? He obviously deserves it. I mean he paid Masvidal who isn’t even really that good of a fighter these days, didn’t he? And I don’t think I’d like to see a rematch vs Gane. But that’s just me. I would like to see Ngannou vs Jon Jones tho. Moving on... We have a not so great card at the weekend after next. The roster for the event isn’t final yet but here’s the link to Tapology. https://www.tapology.com/fightcenter/events/83125-ufc-fight-nightThe only bout I’m looking forward to is Rakhmonov vs Harris. Check it out. I’m not sure why it’s at the bottom of the card. It deserves to be in the main card imho. https://www.tapology.com/fightcenter/bouts/616173-ufc-fight-night-shavkat-nomad-rakhmonov-vs-carlston-mocambique-harris |

^ I’m with you, whoever you are. I mean let’s be honest. Just go to the WO thread, go to CT. People are def coping and I gotta say, it used to annoy the hell out of me. Lol. But now not so much. We have to understand that it takes a while for some people to start being honest with themselves and become more self aware. But they could also really be selling their bags while trying to make everybody bullish. Hilarious. Lmao. But I guess I could respect that than the people who lie to themselves.

I’m just dropping to say that op’s title made me laugh really hard! ‘Rock’ isn’t really a wise choice of word for the title. It made me think what altcoin will drop like a rock in 2022. Lolol. Anyway if a lot of you are taking their lumps on the head in the middle of this three month sell down, I don’t think you guys should be in a hurry to take more lumps. It’s bad for your health and... your pockets. =] Just take it easy and be in the sidelines. Don’t be in a hurry to get back in there again. Just look at me, I’m broke. |

I do not know about a momentum shift, it is too early to say but I think it is extremely tight at the foot of the table. Burnley are bottom with 11 points but have played 17 games whereas Norwich are now 17th place and therefore currently safe from relegation but have played 22 games and are on 16 points. 5 points separate from of the league to safety.
Maybe... Everton seems to be recovering from their little injury crisis and they’re finally seeing some key players available to play. But then again, there’s a thing called momentum and Everton’s momentum is down while Norwich and Newcastle could start going up. Everton will be playing Newcastle next, then Leeds, then Southampton. Fun.  These fixtures are must wins or at least get a point. Losing at least one will def be not good. |

But here’s the thing, Jenson Button has the experience acquired from Brawn GP and from working with the man himself. So he prolly knows a thing or two in what Brawn did differently in that championship winning year. 2009 was it? I mean what else would Williams hire him for iin an advisory role if not for his experience.
But the task here isn't developing a car to best exploit the 2009 regulations, it's developing a car to best exploit the 2022 regulations. So the specific stuff they did back in 2009 isn't relevant any more, and I'm sure every team is already well aware of what Brawn did back then in any case. Right right... I didn’t think about that one. So I guess he’s there more for helping more with the driver side of things rather than the engineering and technical side of things. Still, I think Williams is one of those teams to watch out for going forward. I think in 3 years they’ll become a mid tier team together with Aston Martin, fighting for places against McLaren or Ferrari. More like I hope they will. Lol. Anyway check out the title of this article. https://www.crash.net/f1/news/995610/1/steiner-haas-will-retain-underdog-status-f1-2022No sh*t Sherlock. |

^ Yup!!! Ngannou really improved when he left MMA Factory. Who knew he now had some wrestling in his back pocket. And yeah, Dana White and the UFC would have to renew Ngannou’s contract and pay the man his due. Give him a little respect ffs. Did you guys notice Dana wasn’t there to put the belt around Ngannou’s waist as per tradition? He wasn’t in the post fight press conference either which could mean things are not ok between the two. As for my bets, I think I should stop looking too much into underdogs. Won with Ngannou and Fig. The Fialho one was ok, I knew the match would be closer than what the line showed. But Stamann, Giles and Juarez were all dumb bets. Meh. UFC 270 Results: https://www.tapology.com/fightcenter/events/82993-ufc-270 |

RESULT:
Watford 0-3 Norwich
Norwich are out of the relegation zone because of this stunning away win which has pushed Watford in to the relegation zone alongside Burnley and Newcastle.
Yup. Lol. And Newcastle just won their match today against Leeds too. Is a shift in momentum starting here? I could see Newcastle and Norwich move up while Everton could be battling it out for a relegation scrap... I did not see this happening. If somebody told me Everton would be at risk of relegation during the start of the season I’d tell you to F off. And I think Everton respected Benitez too much. Most clubs wouldn’t wait til after the holidays to give him the sack. |

I thought I was gonna change my mind after the weigh ins but no... Ngannou looks solid for this match. But the line movement still going towards Gane as the favorite is kinda weird to me. I guess both the sharps and fans are on Gane. I mean he’s not a huge favorite but I was just expecting the line to go a little bit to Ngannou by now and get him back close to evens. So yeah my bets for the event... All small bets, follow at your own risk. Ngannou at 2.29, Fig at 2.60. Fig has been training at Fight Ready with and he looked good on the scale. Fialho at 3.40, the match could be closer. Stamman at 2.70, his opponent is not Khabib’s cousin. Lol. I also like Giles at 2.00 and will take a shot at Juarez 2.23. Leeez gooo!
