Bitcoin investors do not need the technical analysis in Bitcoin when they want to invest in Bitcoin, the important thing that a Bitcoin investor needs most is just a good strategy and an amount he/she can invest daily, weekly or monthly.
Analysis is all about trading and other stuff that are related to trading, so if an investor is accumulating Bitcoin then there is no need for the investor to divert to Bitcoin trading, why? Because the investor will not have time to hold his/her coins anymore, more especially when the person is getting little profits from it

Certainly, Bitcoin investors can take different approaches to their investment strategies, and not everyone needs to engage in technical analysis. Nevertheless, an individual with expertise in technical analysis and possessing sufficient experience can make leverage his/her skills to make well-timed entries potentially accumulating Bitcoin at more favorable prices and thereby reduce overall investment costs.

Guys, I wanted to get your opinion on Cardano. I've heard a lot of good things about this cryptocurrency, I'd like to hear your opinion as well. Thanks.

Cardano (ADA) is one of the prominent  block chains of crypto currencies, designed to work on proof of stake (POS) concept. Previously, during the period of 2020 to 2022 it has been largely discussed in crypto communities as potential alternative of Ethereum, however it is worth noting that Cardano has made significant progress, its network capabilities and number of applications it supports is far behind Ethereum and Solana networks. Currently, it is trading around $0.30 which looks attractive in perspective of its All Time high (ATH) that exceeded US Dollar 2. Hopefully, it can perform well in the next bull run.

Certainly, these narratives in the crypto markets are interesting, particularly tokenization of Real World Assets (RWA), this could be potentially the theme of next bull run. It reflect the ongoing innovation and development in crypto space. However, I think the most prominent narrative which keeps attracting substantial attention in social media is the significant interest of major financial institution like BlackRock in pursuing regulatory approval seek approval for the issuance of Bitcoin ETF for spot markets of crypto currencies.

Tokenization of the Real World Assets have only ventured into the NFT space. I feel it is slowly becoming saturated and I feel the upward trend that it had is now slowly dieing down. There next would be financial institution venturing into the cryptocurrency market through spot ETF of Bitcoin. Other cryptocurrency like Ethereum after Bitcoin would be in their mind. The next bull run would be because of ETFs and Bitcoin halving.

Tokenization of the Real World Asset is indeed experiencing sluggish pace nowadays, but it is likely to regain momentum once the potential of this sector is recognized by the prominent investors. I agree with your perspective that next bull run is likely to be driven by institutional involvement in cryto currencies, specially once they obtain regulatory approvals from Security and Exchange Commission (SEC), that is likely to materialize in 2024. It is worth recalling  that bull run of 2021 was largely sparked by the involvement of MicroStretegy company in crypto currencies.
984  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: THE TOP 5 CRYPTO NARRATIVES on: November 02, 2023, 08:55:48 AM
HERE ARE SOME CRYPTO NARRATIVES THAT MADE WAVES IN THE CRYPTO MARKET

1. LIQUID STAKING DERIVATIVES $LSDs
$LSDs have always been a strong narratives and will always be.
Liquid staking derivatives (LSDs) are cryptocurrencies issued by liquid staking platforms, allowing stakers a means to unlock their illiquid-staked assets and generate more yield.

2. REAL WORLD ASSETS; For me, this is going to be one of the top driving narratives in the next bull run
#RWA are assets that exist in the physical world or off-chain but are tokenized and transferred on- chain to act as a source of yield in DeFi.
examples include, Real Estate, Bonds, etc.

3. Another trending narrative is TELEGRAM BOTS
In 2023, there was also a rise in TELEGRAM crypto trading bots
They offer users convenience and efficiency when it comes to executing trades
this narratives is still making lots of waves.

4. CHINESE TOKENS
The chinese digital assets first made waves back in 2011 when china's first crypto exchange, BTC China (BTCC), was launched.
Though they experienced setbacks in 2017, in 2023 china eliminated its zero covid policy and injected 600B yuan into its economy.

5. ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: Artificial intelligence has experienced significant growth in the past two years
AI Tokens are digital currencies designed to power AI -Based projects, such  as decentralized AI market places, AI -Powered portfolio management and many more.

Certainly, these narratives in the crypto markets are interesting, particularly tokenization of Real World Assets (RWA), this could be potentially the theme of next bull run. It reflect the ongoing innovation and development in crypto space. However, I think the most prominent narrative which keeps attracting substantial attention in social media is the significant interest of major financial institution like BlackRock in pursuing regulatory approval seek approval for the issuance of Bitcoin ETF for spot markets of crypto currencies.

Ltc looking like sleeping gigant the price is Under 100$ definately cheap now people mis buy ltc because no body dont want miss the opportunity some experts Even say that LTC can Do 300% gain from here.
i think it's LTC time now in this crypto bull run season

Indeed, Litecoin has often been referred as sleeping giant, in the past it was named as mini-Bitcoin due to its association with being smaller version of Bitcoin. It got popularity as payment method during the 2016-2017 period for its lower transaction fee compared to Bitcoin and Ethereum. However, it could not demonstrate its real potential even during the last bull run in 2021 when it's all time high (ATH)reached to around $412.Its halving event occurred few months back, but it could not make any significant moves and remained around $110. Let's watch and wait how it performs in the next bull run.

I understand that you are bringing up age in a kind of presumption that some of us might have a decent amount of time to invest into bitcoin, but surely there is going to be some time-line variance, and younger people might well be able to start to enjoy their bitcoin and even their finances well before getting old, but they still will have to be careful in regards to how they would manage their BTC holdings in such a way that they would not be enjoying too much of it too soon, even if they believe that they had achieved their BTC accumulation targets at ages that might well be quite below the normal times that we might consider normies to be going into retirement status.

Many of us likely realize that there can be a lot of advantages to being able to have our time to work on our side, as long as we do not screw things up too badly, and surely by definition older people may well not have time to work on their side, but they may well have more capital that they already have accumulated through life.. while at the same time, they may well have concerns about whether and/or how many changes they might be willing to make in terms of potentially adding bitcoin into the mix of capital that they have already accumulated.

You made some valid points about age, financial management and holding Bitcoin. While, how long we will live is a fixed factor but maintaining a healthy life style does affect our quality of life. Additionally, achieving financial stability is also important to reduce stress and ensuring comfortable existence. Moreover, ensuring the seamless transfer of Bitcoin assets to our children and grand children is also vital, as it can provide them a valuable resource to enhance their quality of life.

I think MEME coins will be selective to be able to launch on Binance because what we thought meme coins now on average cannot enter the big exchanges but this time surprisingly there is a MEME coin that can launchpad on Binance, I did not participate in this launchpad.

Likewise with the airdrop, it seems like it has been missed because many have joined, there must be tens of thousands of people who have joined after the announcement by Binance.
Maybe this time the hype will be in meme coins compared to other memes. Grin

Certainly, Binance and other prominent exchanges like Kucoin and Bybit have certain criteria for listing coins, and not all meme coins meet those standards. However, it is important to note that exchanges are commercial organizations, and they are equally eager to generate profit from listing of coins those are in hype and baked by strong communities.

As far as participating in any airdrop or coin's launch pad, it has been often observed that price of coins oftern fluctuate significantly which is an opportunity for experienced traders to use their technical skills to take advantage of such listing events.

Newcomers in crypto currencies market should exercise caution, conduct through research  and evaluate their risk level before putting their funds in any project.

I've participated in their airdrop before they had announced the Binance launchpad. This is a 9gag token which I think aligned to being a meme with having a road map that is meme and everything on it. It's just that after carefully viewing the requirements to join to the airdrop, it is quite abusable for those who has a farm of twitter accounts. They can easily farm meme coins as much as they want with multiple accounts. There are a massive surge on the following on meme coins twitter accounts after binance released it to the public. If somehow meme coins achieve a good entry price, I believe that their NFT will rise along with it.

I completely agree with your perspective that it is likely to be legit project and I also participated in its airdrop campaign and completed all required tasks. Binance is also launching this project on their launchpad which is likely to be listed after twenty six days from now. Its listing price will be 0.01 dollar but it can potentially go from 5X to 10X after listing. Let's watch and wait how it plays out after listing. DYOR

As title says, for example Solana dropped 10x, will it easily 10x again during next bull cycle in late 2025?
Last time round I bet on BCH to 10x having dropped 10x.... IT DID SWEET FA.

What say you?  Wink

There are large number of coins those have lost their value to the extent of more than 90% during the prolonged bear phase began from early 2022 and continued for extended period of more than two years. However, crypto market is now showing signs of improvement, thanks to institutional support.. Solana serves as a good having made remarkable recovery from its price plummeting below $10 to currently trading above $30.It is possible that coins like DOT, ATOM, and ADA could also make substantial  recovery in the days to come as their use cases are strong and supported by dynamic and professional teams.

If anyone is investing regularly in bitcoin, even if it is ONLY $10 per week, they may well be taking from money that they might otherwise spend on fun, food and/or entertainment, so I would not necessarily agree that the BTC accumulator/investor is not going to be negatively affected by his/her dedicating value into BTC, but there is some potential for deferred gratification, and so the idea is just not be drawing from funds that are needed for basic living expenses (and even from emergency funds) but the could still end up causing less fun and enjoyment to be had in the presence with the hope of greater gratification (and options) at some point later down the road, whether that is 4-10 years or maybe even quite a bit longer  before the additional options are starting to be seen and appreciated and maybe even being able to start to draw upon some of the additional options that start to materialize later down the road (and not even guaranteed, either).

It is true that by following your wise advice, if someone invests any amount in Bitcoin that he/she can afford, even as low as $10 on regular basis, can potentially have positive impact on financial future transform the financial future, if done consistently overtime. By waiting Bitcoin to reach a significant value such as, 0.5 to 1 Million dollars, which is attainable in the next decade due to scarcity resulting from halving events, and increasing demand from major financial institutions. These factors are likely to act as catalysts for growth of Bitcoin market in the coming years.

Whether we suggest that the rich people (institutions) are buying all of the bitcoin or if we might have some other reason(s) about why the BTC price is going up, historically, there have been several instances in which the BTC price moved upwardly out of an historical range that it had been, but then thereafter, never did return to that previous price range, and people who had been delaying in their buying of BTC, or waiting for lower BTC prices prior to buying, ended up looking foolish in retrospect.  So yeah, we have had right around 18 months to be buying BTC below $35k... so how much longer is it going to last?  We cannot be sure.  Are there going to be further dips below $30k?  We cannot be sure.


What a substantial move we have witnessed in Bitcoin price which was worth $5000 in a single trading session Cool. Nobody was expecting such an impressive increase while stocks are falling. Bitcoin has shown its real color after a long time of uncertainty, and I was glad to see that Bitcoin is finally showing its independence from stock markets, and Bitcoin's prior correlation with other risky markets seems unrealistic, as it is hedge against inflation and dependable store of value.

999  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the DIP, and HODL! on: October 23, 2023, 07:43:11 AM

Of course each of us should be attempting to balance both our assets (surely including bitcoin) that we accumulate while we are living with how we might either pass them onto others if we die prematurely or alternatively how to potentially figure out how to build our wealth while we are living and to put some systems into place in order that we are able to get advantages from our wealth while still living

...and surely people are going to employ various different systems and balance their priorities in different kinds of ways, and surely some people run out of their wealth too soon and others maybe do not end up enjoying the wealth while living - whether they end up passing such wealth down might be another potential complication - even while dying with your bitcoins would not necessarily be the end of the world for the bitcoin community generally ends up profiting from lost bitcoins.. kind of the opposite dynamics of the fiat system in which monetary supply tends to devolve into various statuses of degeneracy that robs from people who hold their value in it.

Indeed, assets management including Bitcoin is a complex and personnel matter, and different people approach it differently based on their financial circumstances, goals and values. While it is essential to have a well defined plan for wealth accumulation to achieve financial stability, but it is equally important to enjoy our life with whatever resources we posses. When it comes to investment in Bitcoin, while big institutions like BlackRock, Micro strategy and many mores, showing great interest in Bitcoin ETFs, which is a big deal for Bitcoin's future. Therefore, it is a good idea for us to accumulate Bitcoins as much as we can without sacrificing our essential expenses. There is a concern that once these institutions obtain regulatory approvals, the current price of Bitcoin may become a distant memory in our life time.

Sometimes people who are new to bitcoin and/or new to investing might end up making FOMO kinds of mistakes, and I recall that in mid 2015, I had created a system in which I was letting some of my savings build up in case there was a BTC price dip.. so the BTC price was bouncing around in the mid-200s for an overwhelming part of 2015, and in October/November 2015, the BTC price largely shot up from the upper $200s to $500, and I ended up experiencing a kind of panic when the BTC price got up to $500, I bought a pretty decent amount of BTC at that local price top, and I pretty much used up more than 60% of my available cash, and so that was the top of that particular run since BTC prices corrected back down to $300-ish and then got stuck in the lower $400s for about 6 months, and really those BTC that I panic bought right around $500 in November 2015 did not become profitable until the end of May 2016.. and surely the whole situation could have been worse for me if I had not just waited out the whole thing and then compounded my mistake by selling for less than I had bought...

I was not unhappy having had purchased the extra BTC, but surely those extra BTC were bought at a higher price than they otherwise could have had been bought.

so I was not really able to buy the dip back down to $300 and any amount of BTC that I was able to buy in early 2016 was somewhat tempered by my having had used a decent amount of my available cash in November 2015.. even though I did have a bit of a cashflow during late 2015 and early 2016, so I was able to buy some more BTC around $400 before it went back above $500 in May 2016 and really did not ever again return below $500... bitcoin saved me from myself and my mistake, but ONLY because I was able to hodl through my mistake.  

And I learned a lesson from that experience without actually getting reckt too badly in the process...

Another thing with the four year cycles, surely we might be able to imagine that 2023 might be a bit like 2019 and also a bit like 2015.. but that still does not exactly tell us where we might go, even though we might be able to consider some of the similarities in the patterns as a kind of possibility that may end up playing out again (of course, no guarantees), but it does not hurt to be prepared for UP, just in case UP might end up happening.

Your insightful experience with Bitcoin is indeed valuable, and learned lessons along the way serve as guide not only for you but also for those who follow you and seek to navigate the Bitcoin market. Your ability to remain patient and resilient during the unfavorable times and taking advantage of significant price dips and resist the temptation to sell premature to book modest gains during the market surges is commendable.

Investing in Bitcoin is like contributing regularly to a retirement account, that can potentially grow overtime and ultimately providing a financial cushion in retirement life to enjoy golden years of life.
