In a very longer term it's obviously overall demand of the market and supply related to that asset. Also it's very obvious that potential of future earnings from that asset is also a factor in bitcoin you can say the potential of future adoption will be that factor. In the other smaller time frames, obviously it's news, new developments, whale play, legalities and all these things. In very small time frames it's generally just market makers actions.

Obviously yes, people are very good at saving money will be good in all the aspects related to keeping assets safe throughout their lives. This habit is not specific to just fiat, it's about controlling your habits and maintaining the lifestyle. So yes it's obviously similar to keep your bitcoin and keeping money. But yes investment in bitcoin is easier i have seen some people making some trades in between their holding period of bitcoin and increase their overall holdings.

See there are 2-3 types of unexpected expenses that generally come in the way of a budget and the way to solve them differ as well.
The first and actual unexpected expenses are healthcare expenses like you got an injury or even worse got any hospitalization or even Death. Generally your Insurance should cover these expenses, I generally suggest people to buy Insurances available with OPD benefit as well. So you are reimbursed for almost everything.( Obviously upto a limit but it generally is sufficient). Second expenses are like some of your appliance got broke or some other repair of something you use. I generally recommend you keep a buffer of 10% in your total budget always for such expenses because these will always come you can never stop them ever. If they still exceed in some case I suggest you withdraw some amount from emergency fund but make sure to replenish it in the month there is a saving. Other than these rest are definitely the unexpected expenses which can be avoided so it's best to avoid them if it's not possible fit them in category 2.

I think the same. If Bumrah is fit and picks up form before the world cup there is definitely no one who can stop us from taking the world cup. Playing in Indian conditions is heavenly for our players. Also the team this year has a lot of odi matches to play before the world cup itself so, there will be a lot of trial and testing to find the best combination. And even as of now 8-9 months before the cup i feel we have almost the winning combination just 3-4 spots need to be finalized.

Economic cycle? This is a natural climatic disaster, it doesn't only disturbs the economic cycle but the complete life cycle of a certain place. A lot of people die and have to be relocated, not to forget even animals suffer a lot of deaths. People are abandoned and separated from their loved ones. So this is much more than just a disturbance in economic cycle.

The market is bullish, obviously it's not a new bull run as we had in a bigger time frame but it's a short term bullish momentum that the market currently is experiencing. Some are even saying it's a correction in the bear cycle as you see the monthly RSI of bitcoin went to the oversold region it is now being corrected into the median area. I feel one should not say anything as a bull run until you see market near 20-30% area of the last all time high.

True that. But I think these followers always know that what they are claiming is not true infact most of them know how manipulate things as well. They try to be with the wave always and claim that they have made millions from.the market but in reality they don't even have a $100k account of cryptos. Anyone who claims mastery over trading should be a red flag in itself. A real trader will always say he is earning but yet still learning because markets are dynamic and change everyday.

Nothing much to say about the match today New Zealand top order and middle order both struggled in previous match too and they did in this as well. This time it was a big collapse instead and no one could save them. I think it's an fairly easy chance that India might make a clean sweep here and you'll then see India on top of icv odi rankings soon as well.

I'll give you the kindest advice, be prepared to have some unrealized loss in the beginning. Go for averaging out, suppose you have 10k to invest. Just go with $2500 on your first buy. Then wait for market to go down if it does buy another $2500. Remember the point is to buy in the bearish times and not in the bullish times. Suppose you were wrong and market did not go anywhere near that point ladder your buy if you see a complete reversal of trend. These are the small tricks that can help you earn and stay in the market because no one has a holy grail as to when will market reverse. Also best is to be in bitcoin as in all the situations it is impacted the least.

I am really surprised to see people not experiencing inflation since so many years. It's a concept taught in almost all the schools it's not just in theory and in countries like Australia it has always been there. I understand that this time it was slightly more vigorous and steep. But still why are people waking up for the first time to see inflation we saw the same during 2008 crash as well so it's not new definitely and smart people always plan for it that's why they say to invest in asset giving returns more than inflation.

You are right but I think so was the problem with Kohli until some time back. He also used to play in the same way until a few years back and yet was pretty successful in that format. I think if you open the innings you have the freedom to take your time and settle and we saw the sixes he hit once he was settled. So I think as long as he is scoring runs, he can be the part of the team. Ishan Kishan obviously is much suitable he has a batting style more like that of Rohit Sharma. Which is why I think he would play that role in the team moving forward.

So true, i see a lot of people celebrating an end of bear run. But this definitely isn't an end. Infact I won't say anything is an end until we reach 20% near the recent all time high that we have. You see market will not behave the same way because big whales know they can't be predictable for retailers so ideally they will always try to make things uncertain give you fake hints. I am expecting this time bear run can stay for a longer period of time because of a lot of accumulation is required to make btc 100k.

The plan is great. Especially that you have kept two backups of the seedphrase so that just in case one of them goes missing or destroyed you have the other one to rescue. Also keeping 60% in a cold wallet which is not connected to any web is a great idea as well because the biggest chunk of your portfolio is then perfectly secure without any harm from hackers and even far away from you that you sell it in panic.

I think it's because of two reasons one is that FTX US is still active so obviously some traction does comes from there. Secondly I have heard there were some rumours about the exchange restarting after the settlement of all the customers takes place and this time in an organized manner with no scams. Maybe this is why not only FTX all the coins in that eco system are getting slightly pumped up.

Bitcoin is obviously the barometer of the market and this thing really sucks as well. You obviously don't want all your portfolio to be red when just one coins in which you haven't even invested goes red. But this is the truth of crypto market it's too much dependent on bitcoin. The dominance level is so high that it decides the direction of the market always. Even bull run and bear runs are classified on basis of its price only.

Really man what a match it would have been if Bracewell would have taken it away. All the happiness of Gill's double hundred would have turned into sadness. But these kind of comebacks prove why New zealand is number 1 team in ODIs right now. Doing such things that also in away matches. But hats off to Gill. I believe Gill and Kishan is now the future opening pair India can look upto. And too early to say I know but Gill can prove to be the next run machine for India after Sunil Gavaskar, Sachin and Virat. But Gill has to improve himself to adapt in other formats as well. He won't get a lot of opportunities, being in the team is too competitive right now.

Such a bloody year to be honest. It was exactly opposite to the year 2021 which was like the best year for Cryptos. But I feel that the pain might still not be over. Atleast not in 2023, if I remember correctly 2018 was bad but 2019 was even worse and so were the starting months of 2020, and I somehow expect a similar pattern from the market this time as well. You might see a dull 2023 before a bright 2024.

Haha trust me printing stickers and resisting is not going to be effective at all. This way is exactly similar to governments shouting against Cryptos telling that they are a scam they are risky they are fraudulent. CBDC is just their answer to tackle Cryptos and trust me it will never affect Crypto market in any way. Only thing it will effect is fiat. People are into crypto either for it's value appreciation or for it's decentralised and confidential mechanism and none of them can be provided by a CBDC. So chill out CBDC cannot harm Cryptos.

1. Atleast somewhere today you must have done a KYC in your wallet which means some place has your real identity disclosed. Now if the bitcoin you hold transfer from that account or wallet for just once only government will be able to establish a trail easily.
2. Don't transfer funds to any KYC wallet
3. I think Kucoin still doesn't require any ID but it's only until 1 btc per day I think so more than that you'll have to give ID on every centralized exchange.

This is very true. Profits do nothing to your betterment they just make you more boastful, they hardly teach you anything instead they make you feel that everything is correct nothing is wrong while that's not the case. It's losses that teach you that even though last time you made profit the theory which you applied was still pretty wrong so you should redo the things again in the correct manner. For me also losses taught me that most important thing to take care of is how to make a trade not the profit and loss out of it.
