Good lord, normally when a commodity spikes there are natural braking points where stops are triggered and minor retracements happen, but BTC blew straight past 80 to f***ing 86K without taking a breather.

Complete parabola right now, and this might just be the ground floor.

Edit: Just broke through $88K

Edit #2: $89K now lmao

I trimmed my MSTR position a couple of months ago. Sold 20 call contracts for $40k. Had a very nice gain.

Today those calls are worth over $300k. Oops. No more trimming for a while.

There does not exist a USD price at which you have missed out on Bitcoin.

The fully diluted supply of US dollars and other fiat currencies is unlimited (∞).

The price of Bitcoin is programmed to go up forever because ∞/21 million = ∞

That's not how this works, obviously. The point is not that Bitcoin is worth infinite dollars today.

The point is that if you are holding Bitcoin you can have a reasonable mathematically driven expectation that it will go up in value relative to dollars forever, when viewed over longer time frames. Over short time frames it is of course incredibly volatile, which tricks a lot of people out of seeing the bigger picture:

Life gets more expensive over time when you save in dollars, and cheaper over time when you save in Bitcoin. I look forward to buying my next house for less than 1 BTC sometime in the next handful of years.

Thank you for the thorough response to my smartass question! Man I miss those early 2021 discussions we used to have in the Covid forum

Man, that brings me back… wonder what ever happened to that guy who was 100% all in Cardano and was convinced it would outperform BTC long term. RIP…

The price has tested 99 throughout the day, sitting in the 98s for most of the day. My guy feeling is that as soon as it breaks the mythical $100K resistance line, it's going to keep rocketing up to like $120 before settling back down at $105-110. But I'm not confident enough to put money on that.

I’m not sure if you joke, but I’ve seen guys on Twitter who actually did.

Memecoins are my pet hate. Especially when i know of other projects with genuine utility at a fraction of the market cap. But hey, it’s PEPE the frog. Definitely worth 9 billion.
 
What's everyone's outlook on BTC and ETH in the near and long term? The tariff showdown sent prices fluctuating over the weekend. The headlines are dramatizing that tariffs will be bad for crypto prices vis-a-vis Fiat, El Salvador is abandoning BTC as legal tender (while still adding to its reserves), though the new administration and particularly Musk is otherwise a proponent of crypto. So lots of dynamic things going on

Are we feeling a short term shock and long term growth, stagnancy, ignoring the noise and continuing to grow or what?

I'm ready to break even, sell it, and toss it into the S&P 500. Set it and forget it. Crypto is a dream. More likely than not it's just a way for crooks and governments to move money around in a volatile environment. I'm done.
