Used car salesman was harsh. I apologize for that. Just seems concerning that you are giving high level advice without very low level investing basics.
OT- Bitcoin

Who cares what that % is? The issue is that competence should drive hiring decisions, not race (or gender).
Well, yeah. Companies that aren't should theoretically be punished by under-performing.
What’s going on dsmalls? Solana is getting rekt along with Bitcoin . Thank god I have less than 1% “invested”
This price action in crypto just drives home the fact that I don't know what is going on in this space. I figured the news was going to push this up quickly.What’s going on dsmalls? Solana is getting rekt along with Bitcoin . Thank god I have less than 1% “invested”
It feels different than "sell the news". The news from the SEC was supposed to be somewhat of a green light for risk intolerant investors. Maybe the new spot ETFs start buying BTC down the road? Well the $$$ I had allocated for crypto just about got burnt to the ground doing some stupid OTM call sh*t anyway.
Some say the whales drove up crypto price and dumped. Now doing the same to the stock market.
Pay attention to the historical charts... Late 2024 to 2025 is when the bull market will truly be active. Let me show you two charts...
This was the 2017 Bull to the 2021 Bull...
This is the 2021 that will soon be going into the 2025 Bull...
From what I can see we got about 6 to 12 months before the actual bull
I know some people think it will be the next big thing but I think it a joke.
With that said, if I can make some money off of it, I am happy to do that!
lol wtf is this? Btc is down almost 20% since the BR etf was announced. Most say you better sell prior to Q1 2025 crash. You’re saying the bull run won’t start until 6-12 months? I’m starting to think you crypto bros are talking out your ***Pay attention to the historical charts... Late 2024 to 2025 is when the bull market will truly be active. Let me show you two charts...

Once the ETF came out, I thought it would soar.
But is hasn't, not at all, neither have any of the crypto related stocks that I know about.
Makes me wonder what is going on.
It soared for a few hours.. almost to 50.. then crashed down to 39 cause the whales jumped out. I still think we surpass 60 this year but not so sure about 125 + like most crypto bulls thought
All this makes rocket science looks simple. I wouldn’t want anything but money I could afford to lose in something so complicated. Either it’s so complicated only someone who spent all their time and a supercomputer could understand it enough to reliably make money on, or it’s like going to the craps tables.
really alt coins are pretty simple..block chain is a secure network...and the network with the most developers will do the best over time..
btc...is a network people just store money on..cause it's the 1st and has the network effect
@TampaBaySkers (See the date of my post here) I have been saying 2025 way before this fake ETF pump and dump... These companies need to get fat bags for a while before the actual increase
Sometime in 2026 will be the start of the next bear IMOI thought it’s supposed to crash in 2025
Fair enough.. you’re a man of your word. Let’s see if halving pumps new life into this 2024 bear market
I just like how people act like the charts are magic. For something I have a dog older than. Very 1929 vibes when I read this thread.
THANK YOU!
Yes! "It will half", "just wait for next year when it halfs"
Look, I want to make a few dollars of crypto but anyone that thinks they know what it is going to do or when it is going to do it is insane...it is like trying to figure out what a girl is thinking...sure you might have an idea but you are gonna be wrong and then there is going to be issues for you not knowing what she was thinking.
2024 is the accumulation period... 2022 to early 2023 was the bear
If I am wrong... I will admit it and will own up to it. Based on history 2025 should be a good year. We all know history does not always repeat itself. I also will be completely removing my investments from the space myself if it doesn't play out like it should. If does do what it should, I will take some off but will continue to invest in 2026. So will a ton of others I know in the space.

I have no doubt that Blockchain will be valuable as a way of securing information from hackers. But cryptocurrency has to be something that is almost all hype. Unless you have so much money that you can manipulate the cost by getting in and getting out and by having enough media input that you can influence the price price you while you are getting in and out at the “right” time (Elon Musk), you are at the mercy of those folks and it is a total crapshoot. And the more people trying to explain it, Using more and more insider terms, the more convincing it is to outsiders that it is all hat and no cattle.
I am sorry, but as a person that is helping build on the Cardano Blockchain these type of comments that frustrate me the most.
- Meme coins are hype
- The new hot NFT mints are hype (Some have amazing Tech that bring value to the NFT assets)
- The fastest TPS is hype
What is not hype and is the future in the Smart Contract technology that makes the blockchain create instant funds to be transferred to another party without the need of paperwork.
This is what mining is. These computers that mine cryptocurrencies are the verification process that let's the blockchain know you are the owner. There is transaction history that is proof all over the world that you are the owner of that said asset. No governing body can take that from you
It is what is scaring Big Business right now... Imagine being able to buy a house with the proof of ownership being a Smart Contract that cost $0.10 instead of all the Realtor Fees that are around 5-7% of the cost of the house. The technology is game changing and Big Business company's are afraid. Hell on top of Banks... Real Estate Agents, Car Salesman, Financial Planners got to be shaking in their boots, as the blockchain may wipe out their jobs

Man, you are listing off jobs that are already no longer needed and/or used.
Real Estate agents are dying out.
Car salesmen...does anyone actually go to a real old fashion dealer anymore?
Those jobs are wiped out, they just don't know it yet. What's next, "travel agent"
At any one point in time is it known by all how many coins are actually out there? I think it’s a huge bet on the future of commerce, but as time has shown, there are avenues for near instant transfers through current banking systems. If their model was truly at risk they would have it figured out tomorrow how to make it instant. That’s where I struggle to see the value, personally. More power to those who are making bank on it.
Maybe the disconnect for me is the where I try to make a connection between the utility of a block chain and the value of its alt coin.
Real estate agent and AUM model financial advisors have sponged off of us long enough. If blockchain can fast track their demise that would be great.
I am shocked Real Estate agents are even still around. Back in the day THEY would find the houses for you...they would pick you up, drive you around, take you to lunch...
Now...I send a few links to an agent and when THEY can...they go open the door for me.
But hey, I totally need someone to say "So this is the kitchen and over here you can see the sink"
I'd have to disagree, most everything will be built on block chain and the chains with the network effect will do best...
Don't get me started. I've had more real estate transactions than the average human...15 ish. There were two transactions that had agents that were competent. But even in those cases, they were grossly over compensated.
We could use some help from our govt and, collectively, we need to stop signing these stupid contracts on the sell side.
This give me some hope:
Haha!
Oh and most agents will tell you how HARD it is and they love the "Well, why don't you try doing it" line.
15 is insane! Ha!
My agent was awesome and LOVED putting in lowball offers he said "I don't care what price you want to offer, **** them if they get offended" LOVED IT
Then I had other agents that were like "Oh no, that is a low offer, the seller came back and said they were offended by your offer, we really can't do that again". **** off.
Plus, they all collude with each other. So that both agents can make some coin.
Never tell a realtor what your top or bottom number is. They are not asking those types of questions to help you out.
I'm sure its not easy, as there are roughly 2 million relators in the US. That's a lot of competition to screw people out of 6%.
