- most people don't understand it (including me)

Wait till the Treasury has direct access to your banking accounts and how it progresses once they do. I believe lots of people will be motivated to apply some effort to understand how and why crypto will be extremely beneficial https://www.congress.gov/116/bills/s3571/BILLS-116s3571is.xml

- it's value is questionable because you can't buy anything with it in most places.

You can actually buy most anything you wish even https://bitcoin-realestate.com/ How Many Businesses Accept Bitcoin? The Bottom Line https://www.fundera.com/resources/how-many-businesses-accept-bitcoin It’s easy to assume that you can only buy computer repairs or software with bitcoin. But this master list of all the US businesses that accept bitcoin proves otherwise. Whether you want to buy alpaca socks in Massachusetts, spring for hypnosis in California, or donate to a church in Kentucky, you can make all of these eclectic transactions with bitcoin.

- volatility is out of this world

I agree with G36 G36 says

And if you speculate with Bitcoin your holdings might increase in value tremendously.

Especially since in reality crypto is very much in it's infancy and major players are now more then comfortable getting into the game and many for the reason of security and store of value.

Lol... they already do through wage garnishments. And if they think you have something of value they can get a search warrant and grab all your data and know you traded crypto. It's too late man. You'd go to court and withhold your key and password and guess what, you'd be held for perjury and thrown in jail for not complying. They'd take gold too if you had it. Government gets what they want if they want it. Which is kind of amazing that Trump has lasted this long.

Either way, if it gets to that level it's highly likely public internet is shut down. If you cannot transfer it to someone else, it's worthless. All governments know this and have the ability to do so. That's why they allow it to go on and then tax you for your gains. They can shut the flow/transfer off tomorrow because "Covid."

Food, guns and water are more valuable if shit gets nasty. Staying alive is the name of the game and trying to connect to the internet to give some hill billy crypto while he's point a gun to your head and has no idea what the fuck crypto is, by default makes it worthless. You'll just be shot because you have a worthless Seagate hard drive. This is the reality.

Have fun and trade it all day. Make money. Just know what it is and stop getting so uptight when someone tells you what it is.

Cash a great point. If you hold your private keys by storing Crypto on a cold storage/hardware wallet, nobody can touch that. One of many advantages that crypto has over fiat.

To bring this into a scenario where you have chaos and unrest across the nation in which money doesnt matter anymore because power is replaced by whoever has more ammo is Sci-Fi. I don't believe this will happen anytime soon in the US. Surely fearmongers will disagree.

20 Institutional Bitcoin Investors Revealed

Bitcoin’s Price Could Surpass $300,000 by December 2021, Says Citibank Exec

And 2 million are going GOING to die from covid.

SHUT THE COUNTRY DOWN!

And 2 million are going GOING to die from covid.

SHUT THE COUNTRY DOWN!

I've never believed the covid fearmongering.

But, the bullish news about Bitcoin is very believable/real to me. Its incredible that banks are now all in on Bitcoin. The market cap of Bitcoin is only 200B. Gold is a 9 trillion market. Think about the potential. I could easily see a 300k Bitcoin by end of 2021.

Thanks for sharing this article, Cash.

"Thomas Fitzpatrick, a senior executive at the U.S.-based financial giant Citibank, has published a report claiming the price of bitcoin could surpass $300,000 by December 2021, drawing on similarities between BTC and the 1970s gold market.

In its report, Fitzpatrick pointed to bitcoin’s weekly chart and, through technical analysis of prior lows and highs, determined his price target of $318,000 by December of next year. Pointing to bitcoin’s “exponential move” from 2010 to 2011, the analyst claimed it is “very reminiscent” of the 1970s gold mark."

He is refered to as the MOON SHOT boy..... That is way to far ahead for my system of trade, for now I am following the strength of the 4hr which is reading "strong buy" and the follow through can be seen in the Vol rising, RSI >62 and gains in the ATR. On the longer time frames things are heating up but per my analysis there is still room which I am looking to sell around the 16800/17250+/- then buy the discount. https://invst.ly/sumza

Some interesting points, 1 argument I will make is watch how BTC reacts when the USD, BTC quote currency becomes over sold DX 88+/-?.
I still have all my positions due to USD weakness. As well DJI is looking to open -300+/- down atm... I am looking for BTC to test 17250 and it's reaction compared to
what the currency and equity markets are doing at the time.

Damn even the negative is a positive.
https://www.coindesk.com/druckenmiller-bitcoin-what-he-really-said
Bitcoin has more upside because of its market inefficiencies. Let that sink in: The very characteristics that many investors have cited as barriers to investment are what a renowned investor believes will award bitcoin a better performance.

Cash, congratulations! BTC ran up to your target range.

G36 says

The price point on my dial is 17282.6 a breach of that area and DX staying down I will continue to hold. https://invst.ly/sv2-k

Thanks for sharing! Freaking exciting times for crypto!!!

17500/18000/18250 on the way? ;) Plenty of room on the 4Hr for 17500 however some consolidation is in order at that area price is coming in hot so 18ks may have to wait atm https://www.tradingview.com/x/73RQNGGZ/

Cash, have you looked into trading crypto in a retirement account to avoid the tax impact?
Often they are for accredited investors and charge significant fees.

G36 says

I don't believe you can, in good time I think that will be possible once the banks start to use these instruments.

too bad....as you said, Bitcoin is still in its infancy.
Crypto is going nuts this morning. Great to watch!

I am absolutely amazed with this crypto run. Market cap went from 400 to 500B in just a few weeks. Institution after institution is getting in but retail is un-aware (judging by google trends). Watch this curving up when BTC hits new ATH and the media is covering it day and night. Smart money comes first, retail later....

Cash, do you know where I can follow how many Bitcoin shorts are getting liquidated?

G36 says

I am absolutely amazed with this crypto run. Market cap went from 400 to 500B in just a few weeks.

Here is another amazing statistic dealing with capitalization w/i the crypto world "DeFi"in just 5 mo the gains have been exponential with a 1300% gain and I am anticipating an easy 700/800% more before a consolidation. however I guess we will see. . https://defipulse.com/
My main Defi coins "ETH is a must have" are the SNX, Link and ADA. SNX is basically the derivative king as far as DeFi is concerned as #1 holding Dominance of
83.69% and 9th in running in the DeFi ecosystem as a whole.

As far as BTC goes if it keeps tripping on price before it hits 18000 where a big sell wall waiting I am looking at 17350 for buyers to head back in and that could cancel the sells out and bring some FOMO of every kind... This volatility is just what I and most all traders are looking for, the more violent the better ;)

Thanks Cash!

I am planning on adding to my ETH position and also starting scaling into Link.
Can you buy SNX on Binance?

G36 says

do you know where I can follow how many Bitcoin shorts are getting liquidated?

A person can gauge some idea of trader sentiment using the depth charts (buy/sell walls) are you familiar? Also some use Crypto Fear & Greed Index Over Time https://alternative.me/crypto/fear-and-greed-index/ which is 5pts from the last recorded high 95 from this site 1 1/2 yrs ago... I love me some Greedy FOMO especially from institutional traders... What some may not realize the rich have money coming out of their butts , more then they know what to do with and a bunch will be entering this market.
Take it to the bank...

G36 says

Can you buy SNX on Binance?

You can as long as you are not a US citizen, even on Binance.us I can't trade due to the state in which I live, I guess it depends on state regulations as well as federal. Are you staking your ADA on the Daedalus wallet, I think its worth 4-5% I hold some their staking with the Angle pool. My SNX is in my Dharma wallet which if I remember I just transfered ETH and swapped out for SNX. You can buy SNX on Kraken I believe.

Is a good thing BTC slowing down here, let the price get hosed down a little it's steaming.

I am signed up on Kraken now. Will look for SNX there. thanks!
Yes, ADA is on Daedalus.

Here is a good strength meter https://www.fxblue.com/market-data/currency-strength which no matter how you slice and dice BTC is killing it. You can switch from Short-term, Medium-term, Long-term and Custom. With custom I set it with History bars: 50 Timeframe #1:H1 Timeframe #2:H4 Timeframe #3:D1 The Bars can be set from 20/50/100

Moon Boom 18000+ and counting but will be likely done for the evening in the next 30min+/- 18150 is the next wall of some resistance but like always price can blast past for some more Moon time ;)

18.25k was hit and is next on the chopping block to be FOMO'd through, 18.5k anyone?

There has been almost zero liquid in the currency markets most all of today, except crypto https://www.tradingview.com/x/mYqtwjWN/

dang! And I thought Bitcoin is ready for a breather....18.3k.....anti-bitcoin crowd has been quiet, lol
And ETH is breaking out too!

Gigantic sell wall at 18500 however the USD is dead and the buy wall is not that far below 18150+/- so will see if the exchanges let price hit that vein of sellers.... They may not honor 18500 and the sell wall disappears.

In less then 15min a -1200+ dump and a 50% recovery https://www.tradingview.com/x/0SFqgN3Q/ Just a tension release I believe, and my next marker on a breach of that last high with a possible a slight stall at 18500 is 18800/19000. Buyers are defending price imo a perfect test of that long spike now time to reject sellers and make them become buyers
