You’ve got to look long term, stop looking to make small scalps & small profits. We’ve just seen the supply of new coins mined HALVED again. You can make serious gains doing absolutely NOTHING. Sit still & HODL for another 18 months & you’ll make a lot more money than you will messing around making risky trades for 10% profits.

agree on this one, i think the same, halving need time to prove that supply is decreased and with the same demand, price should go up, and with the price increase, and eventual media coverage, new people will get in for profit, demand will rise again, and price will go up, until the circle is broken and we go down or sideways to new halving, it was a cyclic after first two halvings, will see if the will repeat, do not take this as investment advise

Basing your trading decisions on a single tweet from a famous person is beyond stupid. Even if you believe that there's a connection between public interest and Bitcoin's price, you would want to measure it with multiple sources of big data and not something as tiny as a single tweet. And the result that you get should wildly contradict the other analysis methods - just think logically, we had halvening a few days ago and the market is still only recovering from the covid-19 crash, it's nowhere near a FOMO cycle.

Perhaps it is good to hear that J.K. Rowling is interested in bitcoin. But it doesn't mean, that you need to short it right now. The whole economics of bitcoin is very different, and as we witnessed it being halved in the last couple of days, it makes it very rare, so it will be very valuable overtime. So it is better to HODL to our precious BTC and just wait for the eventually bull run. No need to short it at this time just because of a simple tweet.

Yeah its indication that new people are coming, halving doing its job of getting media attention aside from its real purpose. Its actually a good thing for Bitcoin , you ask if to short it now. Noone knows that, only nostradamus, because it could be another run to $20 k or it can go down, time will tell.

It is not really true in general. J.K. Rowling was tagged by someone and she responded in the tweet what bitcoin is all about which she has no idea. I think this is not about showing interest.

Bitcoin is facing a huge resistance at 9800 level this is the second time in this month that it has struggled to stay there. I am still happy that it has not take a huge dive considering the halving has finished. That is great to hear that JK Rowling is interested in knowing more about Bitcoin. It is certain that she might write about it in the future. Good to hear about it.

I don't consider a ~$400 downward movement in Bitcoin a big hit. That is just part of a pretty normal Bitcoin day. And I also don't share that the $10,000 rejection is a clear sign that the bears are back. If at all, it was just a normal rejection. It seems to me that nothing's so special about the price movements of Bitcoin for the past few days. How does J.K. Rowling's interest in Bitcoin support a decision to short? Why not long? The woman is worth 700 million.

J.K Rowling is a weird person.However,it would be nice if she invested a few millions in Bitcoin. All the Harry Potter fans might follow her and invest small amounts.It would be nice for the overall image of Bitcoin as a trustworthy(yet volatile and risky) investment and not some scam or get-rich-quick-scheme,like it is portrayed by the FUDsters. Saying that bears are back in town after a 3% price drop is just amateurish,but she is a newbie,so I would expect something like that from her.

There was someone in Twitter who explained Bitcoin better some months ago, and made its viability look more convincing. It said, " Imagine putting your car on idle, and it produced solved Sudokus that you can use to buy Heroin".

many popular personality are involved in btc before but man this is still overwhelming because the guy is famous for his creations . now him being involved on btc is something that can give impact to the btc markets .
what he does here is something like a promotion ( a free promotion rather ) . it is really the time to buy and start hodling btc because i suspect that the price can skyrocket later on .

How does that even work? Any (and I mean any) personality's statement that influenced the markets by saying they're interested/invested in BTC turned the little pump into nothing more but a following dump. Bitcoin doesn't rise/fall depending on what a celebrity says about it. If the entire Hollywood would pop up right now and say Bitcoin is crap, it'd change nothing in my perspective. Lots of people are still stuck into the stage where they're waiting for that "we need more exchanges" "hey guys binance just listed us!!" shitcoin kind of news. Price is not about exchanges and celebrities. It's much, much more than that. Look at what McAfee's words have done to the markets back when he literally created his own immense pump&dump community and you'd see what I mean. Useless pumps like these only do damage - no good.

A 5% decrease of the price is not a big hit, in my opinion. This is just a typical fluctuation for Bitcoin. As for Rowling, I've looked at her Twitter posts, and I'd say it's more of a curiosity on her side, rather than interest in purchasing some. I've absolutely loved her books as a child, but in the tweets she keeps saying she can't understand what Bitcoin is, as if it's truly impossible to grasp a basic idea of it. Surely, fully understanding it is not for everyone, but it's not that hard to learn how it works or why people use it. In any case, there're quite a lot of tweets about Bitcoin on her profile followed by 14.6 million people, so it's a big free advertisement.

Hahaha! He might do it, if he believes a community of morons will believe his bullshit. Plus Elon Musk replied, That's a good point without being very technical, that she might not understand.

She may be trolling, but still I think it's a good demonstration of how detached from real world the crypto people have become. They live every day surrounded by buzzwords like "decentralization" and "blockchain" and expect that people who can't even install Windows would understand what they are talking about. And they don't understand that regular people don't care about banks, inflation (as long as it's not out of hands), regulations, etc.

She's either trolling, heavily biased against Bitcoin(which is most likely the case imo based on her replies), or just plain-old ignorant. Let's not forget the past controversy whereas she called the famous YouTuber PewDiePie a fascist, while completely being ignorant on what the context actually is on PewDiePie's videos.
