Today I saw the price of bitcoin drop to $89k and this is the umpteenth drop after bitcoin failed to break through its strong resistance at $100k. A few days ago the price of bitcoin touched $97k which made most of us optimistic about the possibility of surpassing $100k, but then the market lost its strength which made the price of bitcoin start to fall. I don't know if $100k can be hit again this year or if we're just going to enter a prolonged bearish phase, but anything seems possible.

Looks like btc is finally tanking.

But the list is now

Venezuela 🇻🇪
Greenland 🇬🇱
Cuba 🇨🇺
Diego Garcia

So maybe  🤔 just maybe people are seeing the 3 way spilt of the world plan that I  see.

Maybe it's better for u s.
Well maybe they are just big talk for some reason and they don't want to do anything about it. One always has to analyze these things considering the costs involved to do something and the potential benefit from doing it. For Venezuela it is clear that there is a lot of potential for oil. For Greenland the potential comes from the position and some resources maybe, but what do they have to gain from Cuba? Yes its regime is annoying and should be changed, but aside from that what is the big gain from going after it?

Today I saw the price of bitcoin drop to $89k and this is the umpteenth drop after bitcoin failed to break through its strong resistance at $100k. A few days ago the price of bitcoin touched $97k which made most of us optimistic about the possibility of surpassing $100k, but then the market lost its strength which made the price of bitcoin start to fall.

I would not doubt the market at all for this year, there is no reason to. There is chaos but the monetary policies are improving. Inflation is pretty stable and relatively low when contrasted to the period before this, even if some people were acting like doomsayers because of the tariffs. The fears did not really materialize. It stands to reason that there will be more rate cuts this year and more stimulus, especially if Trump appoints a FED president that is very favorable to what he wants to do. We are all well aware that there is correlation between money printing and favorable rates and the price of Bitcoin, as it is still more correlated to the tech stock market than safe reserve assets like Gold. Further if we consider favorable institutional adoption or any potentially beneficial news for this year I think Bitcoin may have some surprises in store for us.

A lot of people have been very fearful and the sentiment is low in recent months, but this also has to do with the horrible performance of shitcoins and a lot of misinformation and fear being spread on Twitter. It is advisable to avoid spending time on such outlets as they just harm people who are sensitive to things that are written, even if they are wrong.

Now the interesting thing is will he follow up and grab another leader from another country in less then a month or 2.
The country's president that Trump can likely capture unexpectedly will be the Colombian president, in the person of Gustavo Petro. Another president will be the Brazilian president, Luiz Inacio.

The timing of when such a capture will take place is what nobody can tell. It could be before or after a year time, not within two months as you predict it to be.

What I want to point out, the arrest of these men(president) won't affect the price of Bitcoin in any way. Like the day the arrest of Venezuela president and his wife was made by the US government, did the crypto market react to it? It was as if nothing happened because the Venezuela government had nothing to do with Bitcoin.

The geopolitical situation isn't good, and there is so much tension all around, mostly created by Trump's policies. There is a Greenland issue, the US wants another strike on Iran, and rising global tensions have made a bad impact on cryptocurrencies and Bitcoin seems to be under a lot of pressure.

However, if this is not the bear market, the bitcoin needs to recover quickly and fast. I think that making a lower low or not recovering 100K$ soon will confirm the trigger of a bear market. Also the seniments are so bearish, no new money coming in bitcoin and people are going all in, in Gold and Silver.

I was also surprised that the market seemed to have no reaction at all when the US arrested Maduro. But I think that if Trump did that to the president of another country or launched a full scale war with Iran in the Middle East. I do not think Bitcoin will be able to hold its own under those condition

Geopolitical instability has a negative impact on the market, and we should not deny that. That has happened many times, it is not just speculation

President of another country depend on the country it is. Not the country that it is not in full scale support of Bitcoin, or doesn't control the global market, you expect Bitcoin price to decrease. That's not going to happen, for Bitcoin to have a decrease in price. For Bitcoin to decrease in price, it will country that control the world economy, and I don't think Venezuela does that.

Iran you mentioned of, if the US should play a fast run on Iran negatively, the global economy will be shaken, and it will affect Bitcoin price. Like the case of Russia and Ukraine war had an effect on Bitcoin price at the initial before the market stabilize. US tarrifs against China had much effect on Bitcoin price.

From what I see, geopolotical stability in western hemisphere as a whole create negative impact for crypto, but geopolitcal stability in one country will make crypto go up. When problem happens in one country, people migrate to bitcoin. More than 2 country affected, people will look for gold.
Seems like there is risk threshold until people settle for gold and unwind majority of investment from risky asset.

Just like how maduro getting captured brings no effect to bitcoin.

Today I saw the price of bitcoin drop to $89k and this is the umpteenth drop after bitcoin failed to break through its strong resistance at $100k. A few days ago the price of bitcoin touched $97k which made most of us optimistic about the possibility of surpassing $100k, but then the market lost its strength which made the price of bitcoin start to fall. I don't know if $100k can be hit again this year or if we're just going to enter a prolonged bearish phase, but anything seems possible.

The geopolitical situation isn't good, and there is so much tension all around, mostly created by Trump's policies. There is a Greenland issue, the US wants another strike on Iran, and rising global tensions have made a bad impact on cryptocurrencies and Bitcoin seems to be under a lot of pressure.
It looks like the US or even Israel and hell bent on attacking Iran now. I don't what to sounds negative, but it could be that before the end of this year, who knows, maybe there will be imminent wars in the Middle East again,

However, if this is not the bear market, the bitcoin needs to recover quickly and fast. I think that making a lower low or not recovering 100K$ soon will confirm the trigger of a bear market. Also the seniments are so bearish, no new money coming in bitcoin and people are going all in, in Gold and Silver.
It might be that this bear market is under the guise of the geo-politics that we have been seeing. Nevertheless, we should be smart and prepare for the worst. Maybe we can diversifying in other assets like Gold and Silver and then Bitcoin could be hitting lowest low in the next couple of months.

The timing of when such a capture will take place is what nobody can tell. It could be before or after a year time, not within two months as you predict it to be.
I don't believe that at all, and it seems to me that you just bought examples of some presidents that Trump does not like regardless of any realistic prospects of him wanting to capture them. He does not like the president of Mexico either and for very good reasons, but that does not mean that they would go as far as to do the same actions that they did in Venezuela. When considering these things we have to be realistic, and doing something like this is pretty big so there must be very good reasons to do it.

What I want to point out, the arrest of these men(president) won't affect the price of Bitcoin in any way. Like the day the arrest of Venezuela president and his wife was made by the US government, did the crypto market react to it? It was as if nothing happened because the Venezuela government had nothing to do with Bitcoin.
You can't make a general world statement about this, because each situation is quite unique and warrants its own examination. Taking out Maduro was a good thing and it did not have an effect on the price of Bitcoin. This does not mean that taking out any president will have the same result, that is that it won't have any effect on Bitcoin. You have to make a better analysis, and to dismiss the argument as false we can focus on improbable examples. What if he took the president of Canada, UK, Mexico, or EU? Even if the chances are slim, this would definitely have a big impact on the overall markets and maybe Bitcoin too.

The geopolitical situation isn't good, and there is so much tension all around, mostly created by Trump's policies. There is a Greenland issue, the US wants another strike on Iran, and rising global tensions have made a bad impact on cryptocurrencies and Bitcoin seems to be under a lot of pressure.
To claim this is incorrect and just plain wrong, none of this was created by Trump. The situation with Iran precedes both of Trump's presidencies, the situation with Maduro does as well. Now Greenland is a new topic, but that does not mean that this is a really a big geopolitical issue yet. It seems that most users still don't understand the Trump playbook here, even if it is quite basic. You are responding to his behavior in the wrong way. He will ask for something huge, something crazy so that you will settle down to something more normal, for the thing that he really wanted anyway.

However, if this is not the bear market, the bitcoin needs to recover quickly and fast. I think that making a lower low or not recovering 100K$ soon will confirm the trigger of a bear market. Also the seniments are so bearish, no new money coming in bitcoin and people are going all in, in Gold and Silver.
This is not a bear market and some negative price performance does not make it a real bear market, people are just impatient and very sensitive these days. The sentiment showed that most people were very fearful as soon as it started dipping even a little bit, months ago.
