Earlier than expected by whom? I expected the bear market to begin right about now. Maybe it could have been 100k, but since trillions of dollars didn't flow in as some were hoping, this was the best we could do.
It is over for the time being, already the spammers from Wall Street sold and their paid accounts in social media are dissappearing.

Bro, it is already one month and more since the previous ATH. This was it, there is no recovery. Look at GBTC and how it trades at a 20% discount even at these price levels. There is no new money entering and the market is just sustained by Tether. I'm guessing soon a mass exodus from big exchanges will begin and we will see the same events of withdrawals suspending and many exit scamming on their users.

Maybe Musk already started selling. He gave many warnings and while trade bots are always quick to take profits, even the lousiest trader should have picked the change in the market trends. All my indicators are turning bearish and maybe price will drop to somewhere between $15,000 by next year. And this will still be a great thing, Bitcoin performed amazingly and I find it impossible even going bellow $10,000 again.

I understand your thought, but you should know that mining difficulty requires a certain number of blocks to be produced (2016 blocks). If lets say 90% of miners decide to quit for some uknown reason, the difficulty will not change instantly. If the miners in this case leave early, right after the difficulty adjusts, then blocks will take hours or even days. I don't know the calculations exactly, but probably a hard fork will be required to change difficulty to very lower levels that will be able to sustain the network.

It was closer to 21% drop if you count the recent top, which is double from what you say. Not something to shake me off though, however the lower low seems to be very important.

It seems that Bubbalex didn't want to manage any more campaigns. He has his reasons and he expressed them on telegram. Unless something really good appears I don't think he will be managing any campaign for a while.

It often feels I missed on bigger gains. I made some mistakes in the way up and sold too early a few coins, like Ethereum. You are longer in this than me, and did better so I can't challenge you in it. I am still learning how to manage with everything, and certainly I feel that I missed at least three or four times more profit.

And believe me, I don't want anything like that to happen. I hope that it doesn't. I am profiting in many ways when prices are rising, while in bear market there is very few earning opportunities, and only increasing risk of accumulation. Meanwhile marketing and anything else is compeltely off, with only a few opportunities appearing. I hope that let's say Musk keeps the hype on for all this time and the market keeps increasing.
I think that for most of us there is a lot of profit in the bull run. I am not naive to think that a bear market will be something good for us. But we need to remember the previous times.

I'm not talking about a correction but a two year bear market. I've been selling all the way up. I just haven't sold everything yet, but will certainly do that. Maybe instead of calling me sensless you should research how this market works.
Unless you think this time is different.

Was great and May still hasn't finished. But there is danger and when remembering the previous bull run and how it ended, it was with a massive sell off and some news coming from Japan about MtGox and that trustee that was ready to dump 100k BTC. Of course this was probably a second reason, with the first one being hodlers offloading their Bitcoins and making millions after holding for three to five years.
Now, it is not going to be different either, it is Bitcoin reaching to a 40% dominance which is a critical level and altcoins rising way too much in all 2021. I expect a huge crash very soon, maybe by this or the next month and a change of the trend.

I don't know if I'm wrong with this phrasal verb. I thought it meant  "cooperate". However, I'm not fluent in English and maybe "work for" is the right one.

The order was random, I explained. I think that Hhampuz is very professional and perhaps if I ranked these managers he would be at the top. But it isn't a ranking, just put the names in no order.

I almost never sell everything together, so I'm hardly getting mad. Max I'm going to sell each time is 50% so I'm always glad if prices go higher.
Maybe try not to sell everything at once, but hold something behind for the chances are you can't sell at the top. Same as when buying you DCA, when you sell you select prices, watch the market sentiment and only sell everything if you are feeling you have achieved above your targets.

Wasn't billionaires already invested since 2011? It doesn't mean anything, just that the more demand the higher the price will go. For most today price of Bitcoin is making it unavailable to buy one whole Bitcoin but you can buy lower amounts, and the higher the price goes there will be more decimals.
It doesn't mean Bitcoin will be hijacked, but since the inception and the realization of a few uknown features of Bitcoin, it became evident that nobody would use it as payments method, but instead as an asset that resembles gold. The high fees and the inability to scale as payments network is clearly giving the impression that it won't be used this way. It is already used as store of value, or named else "digital gold" because it shares similarities with gold. Since gold is an asset many billionaires have invested in, the same is now happening with Bitcoin.
Those that invested early and held part of their investment, or the early miners that didn't sell everything, they had that in mind since the very early days. There are posts about Bitcoin having potential to reach a million dollars even from 2011 when price was just a few dollars.

Hey! Thanks a lot. I will try to follow yahoo. I know he is one of the most respected managers in bitcointalk and I will be watching for openings in low-tier.

I think the link is this one: Bitcoin-Massive Deleveraging coming you have been warned!

Oh. Thanks, you are right. I will try to move it there. Sorry about that, I have seen articles about bounties in this section and thought it was the correct one.
Edit: moved.

This post is about those Bounty managers I have worked with. I don't have personal experience with some that are very popular and are considered top, but I think that these guys here are doing a great job, finding real and valuable projects, and can be considered to be very professional.
I have only had a good experience with all these bounty managers and I will be following and taking part in their campaigns.

• CryptopreneurBrainboss
• irfan_pak10
• Murat
• bubbalex
• Hhampuz

The order of this list is random and doesn't mean one of them is better than the rest. My experience was equally positive with all of them. Thank you guys for the work you put and I hope you receive some good rewards for your professional management.

I am part of campaigns from other managers too, some of them are professional but the payments I've seen were not worth the time spend. Creating a good reputation means you have to strive to find real projects and perform comprehensive due diligence. In any case, these are the top ones that I have had only pleasant experiences to share for the past 2 years I am using the forum for bounty campaigns.

Being very low in rank, I don't often participate in signature campaigns. In those campaigns that are really good, the competition in the low ranks is fierce as there are probably a million "member-rank" accounts in bitcointalk. For this reason, I have very limited knowledge about the top bounty managers that promote the signatures of famous projects in the cryptocurrency world.

Hopefully, with time, I will be part of the BTC paying signature campaigns.

It depends on the exchange, the payment requested by the exchange and the interest in the coin. If the coin is not listed anywhere and has very low brand, it may be rejected by exchanges.
There are some exchanges that will list any coin if they receive the payment requested, and others that have some criteria to select which they will list.
The top exchanges usually don't hurry their listing procedures and for some coins it could take many months.

Ethereum is now 30 times higher from last year price when I bought at $100. Of course I kept selling and now have none at all as I sold the last at $2000. I don't know if it will keep rising higher, it makes no sense to me. It was a good buy at $100 and if it ever goes back there I will be investing again. I'm not going to risk any money at $3500 which is ridiculous price for ETH as with most altcoins we have. The DeFi model and the fast presales have helped in price of Ethereum to keep high. The ICOs in 2017 were pushing price down as they were selling massively. Now this is ETH locked in DeFi and staking that helped the price so much.

I also think that ApeSwap will become the next Pancake and will eventually take over the reigns. It has some very interesting developments and the fact that CZ followed it means a lot. I don't usually discuss prices but I think that the one you mention is feasible. We have seen any kind of projects reaching too high prices, and honestly, ApeSwap is ahead of the rest in everything. Even the TLV is already more than half a billion USD. It is growing very fast.
