Something that I did not know before: apparently, Laslo Hanyecz (the man who bought pizza for 10000 btc in 2010) is ALSO the man behind the first GPU-mining algorithm (in May 2010), which he released in the open (instead of mining with GPU for himself first). I wasn't around then, so I don't know how much each GPU was outperforming CPUs (maybe 10-fold), but with GPU, you can run them in parallel, so people run 6-8 GPUs on one CPU, greatly increasing computation. Man had mined at least 100K BTC. https://bitcoinmagazine.com/articles/the-man-behind-bitcoin-pizza-day-is-more-than-a-meme-hes-a-mining-pioneer/

Everyone should be entitled to their opinion, granted, and here is mine: he/she draws two lines with btc spending 90-95% of time in between, but, somehow, in projection, btc is mostly hanging out outside of the lines. Why is that?

There's a term for mocking someone that was involved in Bitcoin early on, but never became rich out of it: bitshaming. I do believe these guys have received generous donations in BTC from several lucky whales who became aware of their stories. IIRC, Andreas Antonopoulos has received donations of more than 100 BTC. And rightly so. We all owe these guys. These are the pioneers that pushed the Bitcoin movement to the masses, while often ending up poor (or not as rich as they could have been). If I was a whale I would surely send some coins to them.

Why is that? Because for him, new ATH will happen after every halvening and maybe, since the yellow trendline broke below, he considered it as a resistance before breaking it on 3rd halvening.

Do you think? I’d rather we had a slow, steadier rise than last time, at least until we reach the halving. I’m not in the mood for an unsustainable, parabolic rise now if we’re just going to get a major correction again. I’ve tried to meticulously plan what I’m going to do this time but I’m not really prepared for any kind of selling, at least mentally, until the end of 2020 at the earliest. Bitcoin will do what it wants to do though so I guess we must be prepared for all scenarios. I really think 2021 is the time we’ll see fireworks though in this cycle. I think it’s far too early to expect a new ATH this summer.

Bitcoin has now come closer to breaking above [D], which coincides with $9,948.12. But the cryptocurrency’s ultimate goal, at this point, is to retest , which is lurking anywhere between $11,238.48 and $11,779.67.
