Backtest data is on-chain, at least they're not making up numbers. But code quality... it runs, don't expect gas optimization. High freq probably won't work, block time limits are what they are. Cool part is strategies work across markets, same logic trades perps and prediction markets. Like ""when ETH pumps, long ETH and short ETH ETF approval probability"" — weird arb stuff like that. 3 beta codes left. Tell me what strategies you usually run, I'll send. Just share some slippage data after testing, curious how it actually performs. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Post is by: Known-Operation-623 and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1r5it29/honest_question_is_anyone_actually_profitable_on/ Like most of you, my spot bags are pretty heavy right now. I honestly stopped checking my main portfolio daily because seeing the same -60% from the 2025 highs is just depressing. Since price action is basically dead (or just bleeding slowly), I’ve been trying to find yield in places that aren't correlated to BTC. I started messing around with prediction markets recently, mostly Polymarket and a bit of Kalshi. The volume is definitely there, but the pricing logic sometimes feels completely broken. You see these massive swings in probability based on a single tweet or just whale manipulation, even when the actual data hasn't changed. I realized that ""guessing"" the outcome is just gambling, but finding the gap between the actual odds and the market odds is where the edge is. I’ve been using this browser extension called PolyPredict AI that overlays a ""fair value"" calculation right on the trading screen. It basically scrapes real-time news to check if the current odds are drifting too far from reality. It’s not a magic crystal ball, nothing is but it’s been useful for spotting arbitrage setups where the market is clearly overreacting to FUD or hype. In a market where everything else just follows Bitcoin off a cliff, finding something that actually moves based on its own fundamentals feels like a relief. Are you guys touching this stuff to hedge, or just sitting in stables/BTC waiting for the cycle to finally turn back around? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

It's not a tax on BTC.

PassLongjumping9699

BTC is a get rich "QUICK" scam, what are you doing?

_GOREHOUND_

What tips or suggestions? Your plan already sounds solid. Settle for a trustworthy broker to buy BTC and NEVER disclose your seed phrase. 99% of the job done.

crypto-indian

Hmm yeah you can do that, diversify with metal because whole crypto market moves where BTC moves. Metal was up when market and BTC was down So in case you need liquidity in urgency this strategy can help

PhysInstrumentalist

To play devils advocate, this is a cyclical investment. We all buy BTC because we believe this investment will grow in the long term. If this is true, peaks and valleys will have to rise throughout time. Before the 2025 spike, the last floor was no lower than ~$50k in 2024; to believe the next trough would be no lower than $60k is reasonable. If you believe we can go as low as <$50k, then that implies this investment has reached its absolute potential, and there is no reason to hold an investment that has no more long term growth.

Ge_Yo

DCA BTC is solid. Not every alt is a scam, but most underperform long term. If you want “extra” beyond holding, look into native BTC staking and self custody vault designs instead of chasing random tokens.

No_Giraffe_4647

Well BTC is like a digital vault that does not produce anything but offers a great bridge to swap into other assets and this is why it is now fully integrated on other crypto pairs including tons of shitcoins. People used BTC as main staorage and wanted to diversify on something else following the hype and not understanding what they actually bought. The ETH is maybe the only one that could catch up one day with mass adoption on DEFI as its ecosystem is huge and revenue stream is way above BTC. However BTC will remain the most popular coin ever despite having a closed protocol so no further development upgrades could be ever made.

andysime1

See last cycle I got stuck with some NFT coins and. Just think BTC surely is the safest maybe. Ofc lower gains, but at least there will be some gains

Ms_Freckles_Spots

Yes! I believe that a lot of the current crypto skepticism has some basis in the fact that shit coin players are confusing the BTC market, I understand BTC, I have never been able to see any other ‘coin’ as anything but a ‘penny stock’ game. I will hold BTC knowing it is the one which will prove itself due to mathematical basis and blockchain.

Despite this intraday stabilization, sentiment remains pinned in Extreme Fear, with the Fear & Greed Index currently sitting at a 9. Institutional outflows and high-beta liquidations continue to drive a cautious narrative as investors pivot toward higher-quality assets. ​SOLANA (SOL) SECTOR ANALYSIS Solana is currently trading in the $87.00 - $90.00 range, showing a 24-hour gain of approximately 2.75%. This follows a broader 45% correction from its January peak. ​Technical Positioning: SOL has faced intense selling pressure due to unwinding leverage in derivatives markets. Support is holding at the $85.00 level, while resistance remains firm near $95.00. ​Institutional Sentiment: Standard Chartered recently revised its 2026 price target for SOL to $250, emphasizing a shift from speculative memecoin activity to a micropayments powerhouse. ​Network Developments: Market attention is shifting toward the upcoming Firedancer and Alpenglow upgrades, which are expected to redefine network throughput and institutional utility throughout the remainder of 2026. ​MACRO INDICATORS ​Bitcoin (BTC): Trading at $70,321. Reclaiming the $70K level is considered critical for a broader sentiment reset. ​Ethereum (ETH): Hovering at $2,064. Spot ETH ETF outflows (estimated at $242M) continue to weigh on price action. ​Liquidity Trends: Capital is increasingly rotating into projects with documented technical density and long-term utility, as retail "pump and dump" cycles show classic capitulation signals. ​STRATEGIC OUTLOOK The current market cycle favors the "Working CEO" model of development. Infrastructure building during periods of extreme fear historically precedes institutional accumulation. The 2026 cycle is transitioning away from hype-driven narratives toward a "Proof of Work" standard in digital assets and sovereign branding. ​Thank you for your time, Thomas Harrison Founder of The Festive Official Brand. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

anymonero

BTC doesn't set the benchmark for scaling. Compared to BCH, Monero scales worse, however as a user, you have to consider whether better scalability is a valid tradeoff for worse privacy. In the short term, there isn't any reason to prefer BCH for the use cases people use Monero for. In the long term we have to see whether Monero catches up on scalability first (though currently the level of scalability is perfectly sufficient for its adoption) or BCH improves privacy so it can replace Monero while keeping the same level of scalability once demand for privacy exceeds what Monero can provide.

Zdendon

In one year, BTC will be one year older.

FnAardvark

BTC from 50k to 100k is double, so whatever you buy at 50k would double. So 10k would = 20k.

CountGensler

The end goal is MORE, one way or another. Also they borrow against their BTC I am sure.

AntiqueDiscipline831

I bought 3 BTC in 2016

energetic_one

You are absolutely correct in everything. Those degen gamblers still exist and talk trades only. Those that see the true value buy and HODL for the time when they will need to rely on BTC and it's technology. Years ago a site called BTC-e existed and I purchased my Bitcoin there, then immediately shipped it out to Coinbase which was new. Buy/sell fees were much lower on BTC-e. I monitored the chat in BTC-e and could not believe the shortsighted mentality and stupid day trading talk going on. They felt the value of Bitcoin was only in the daily buys and sells. Of course nearly all lost money... and complained about it 😆 Then one day I showed up to buy more and was greeted with a big seal and sign... "FBI - this site has been seized and shutdown". Found out later BTC-e had been laundering money, maybe that's why their fees were so low!

K4RL4-92

This is exactly my thought. Putin has warned the US plans to use Bitcoin to debase the dollar and erase its debt. US government can't simply pull a new executive order 6102, as they did in 1933 with Gold, so they are using MSTR as a proxy to buy as many BTC as they can. That is why Saylor is always smug, he knows the US government will "eminent domain" all MSTR bitcoins with its infinite liquidity. Now, those who know history knows what will come after that, and those will certainly be holding their coins in self-custody.

Bakkus1987

Would be funny if BTC leaves all the bear market bro's in the dirt this year and records an ATH this year 😂.

Denna_Watsoll

If it’s just a small shared stack (like couple savings) you can do one normal wallet for both of you and a second private wallet each. My partner and I use a shared gem wallet for “house BTC” that we both have the seed for, and then we each have our own hardware wallets for personal savings. Not perfect multisig, but it matches real life better than over-engineering it

richardto4321

Why would you go in on another investment vehicle (strc) that heavily depends on the performance of the one you're already investing in? I'd just keep stacking more BTC or diversify into something else.

VivaHollanda

It's always been like this here in The Netherlands. We have to report the value on the 1st of january and pay tax over that value. So in your example buying 200k in BTC in year x and on the 1st of january of year x+1 it's worth 300k, we pay tax over that 300k. Even if it fals to 200k a day later. As i understand it, because it's a nightmare of a law, now we would pay tax over that 100k (aka the profit).

WSSquab

In the bear market BTC hits low levels that makes you feel that really this time is over, I don't see that yet in this one.

Gregory_Matthewsa

EU here, trying to DCA BTC from euros without getting wrecked on fees and weird EUR to USDto USDC conversions. Anyone cracked a decent setup?

montoya_c

The people calling for 30-50K are the same people that were calling for 200K+ BTC. Decent chance we’ve bottomed.

BonerDylan

I worked at a company that ordered shit like this from websites and all over the world. You are doing yourself a huge disservice consuming this stuff, especially when it’s labeled “not for human consumption”.  These companies can’t be trusted and are clearly obfuscating the rules and regulations   Even big companies like Hims and Hers aren’t much better.   I’d much rather have BTC stacked then risk my health over some unknown chemicals 

Captaincdj

I don't think it would be a shame at all. I don't want those people in BTC, they are the same ones who will sell in 2-3 years because of a calendar, perpetuating a repeat of the cycle and crashing price again. I hope they ALL get left behind.

seomajster

SP500 and others are close to ATH, risk of stock market entering bear mode is high. If this happens BTC will face more looses.

usedmattress85

Why is there a need to declare that the bear market is over and that prices can’t reach $50k? Past bears show that BTC will drop through the realized price and touch the balanced price before the bottom is in. It also show that it’s not over until the amount of holders in loss match the amount in profit. If the timing of past bears are a guideline we should see an initial final drop, (happened), sideways chop and relief rally’s and then a final capitulation in Q4, then we go up. No one knows the future but the evidence shows that the low is not in. And why does it matter that we time the bottom as well as we can? Because money.

Famous_Task_5259

I buy a little XRP and BTC every week along with XEQT and QQQI, not selling any for a very long time. DCA that shit, buying consistently is better than trying to figure when the most unpredictable investment will actually bottom. It may have already, nobody really knows.

WormHole_15

Monthly DCA 0/-20% from ath --> 500€ -20/-40% from ath --> 1000€ -40%/-60% from ath --> 2000€ -60%/-80% from ath --> 4000€ over -80% from ath --> 8000€ When new ATH happen, I slowly move balance from BTC to MSCI ETF until 75%/25% proportion is reached.

TheCreat1ve

This is a stupid post. You get upset when they print money, but you also get upset when they destroy money? Make up your mind. And yes, I'm a crypto enthusiast, I hold BTC. This post is just ridiculous.

My question: as far as the market, did the short even matter? Would have the market crashed regardless? Or was that small (in relative terms) short the big domino that pushed all the others over to fall to the floor? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

MSTR has been trading like leveraged BTC without the liquidation risk

energetic_one

He's gone. At least under that username. We don't usually find big whales on the Bitcoin reddit boards! He's smart and I'm did he did exactly what you stated. And then shut up about his Bitcoin holdings and went quiet as all BTC holders should do.

BeeKnight86

I am absolutely sure. And if you are still lost, dont even try to buy BTC or invest in anything, or even applying for any loan (even a reasonable mortgage)... This is basic math.

Btcmot

The level of stupidity in some of this posts responses makes me finally realize that MOST people don’t get BTC. Go read up on what is happening, and realize your odds of timing correctly are as low as the underbelly of a frog. If you want to trade, go buy a penny stock or any one of the myriad of shipcoins. Bitcoin is unique and superior. Each purchase is a percent of the total, never to debase or dilute.

Icy_Annual_9954

So what are they saying about the BTC and BCH controversy? This would be interesting.

rmn_swiss

$BTC followed by $ETH, then $SOL imo. I'm not talking about a 5k mc shitter on Pump.

Flashy-Potatoe-Queen

Besides Bitcoin and Kaspa, everything else is a gamble to me, simply for being a crypto company or a cheap fork of BTC.

DanNotTheMann

BTC will rip again the moment central banks turn the liquidity taps back on, it always follows global liquidity. There’s no clear trigger for when that injection comes. Until then, we’re likely grinding sideways and scraping along a base. That’s why laddering limit buys makes sense for lump sums, let the market come to yoo, or just DCA if you prefer better sleep

Suitable-Profit231

What kind of moron are you, there are still many people that bought BTC at 6-8k and ETH at ~150$...

BruceAENZ

People will always try to predict the absolute bottom, and regret it either because they got nothing or they feel they ‘paid too much’. I suspect most are smarter and will mix it up and try to buy the bottom whilst still buying at higher levels just in case. Everyone’s situation is different so I’m certainly not going to bash someone for believing they can buy in at 50k or 40k. I think they are wrong, but I thought BTC was going to 100k before FTX imploded … Although I would say from my own experience, long term paying ‘too much’ is better than the regret of not getting anything.

Galen-Erso

Because this is both a cycle run (cycle N here) and poker game. The money you win (in crypto or any other asset game) is the same some others lose. At every cycle beginning, newcomers of cycle N lose a lot because they dont get yet how it works and how hard it is to hodl specially during a bear market. On the contrary early adopters of cycles N-1 and N-2 have endured pain (because they were also newcomers at that time). They know that BTC needs big pullbacks to enable it to go back to the stars. The lower it goes, the higher the spring effect is. At he end of cycle N, newcomers become early adopters of cycles N, N+1... Now they know the pain. So now the question is, what is the bottom. The answer is, we can have an estimate but in fact nobody knows. The real truth is, there is no magic money. If BTC encounters a huge bull market, it is only because lot of people have lost money. So it is of interest to the early adopters majority that the bear market longs as long as newcomers have desperatly sold enough to get a new refined fresh buy market. In this perspective, you should expect BTC price to pump a bit, then dump a lot for months and months in order to maximize psychological influence and despair of newcomers. When the despair is everywhere, you will know because nobody will speak about BTC anymore. And btw, all the bros who voted for Trump because they thought he would have a positive influence on this, were fooled like never. BTC is worldwide, not US specific. It is probably worth for BTC to have a steady, collaborative global market than a US focused insanity. I'm truly sorry for your loss.

jspartanlee

Because 1 BTC is just too expensive. With MSTR you can buy parts of a Bitcoin!

RosariusAU

Lavayo

Of course it can happen. But it's not a given. DCA is best, lower prices more buys. OP ist just warning people should not be the ones beating themselves up in 2 years with a 250k BTC that they did not buy at 70k because the waited for 50k.

miamiair92

Went from 80% VOO 20 BTC to now 95% BTV 5% VOO since the October peak. I have been juggling that falling knife. Wonder who will out perform in 15 years

nafnaf0

Yeah it has been very consistent. It is fairly easy to buy low and sell high, but most people don't have the emotional control for that. In truth you need the people that buy in at the last minute to pump the price and make money off. I existed by BTC position in December 2024 just short of $100k. It wasn't quite the peak, but that is okay, it is much better to be early that late. I re-allocated those funds into the rest of my portfolio, which has been up 56% since then. The 4 year cycle peaks have been very consistent: Nov 30 2013, Dec 17 2017, Nov 10 2021, and Oct 7 2025.

Illustrious-Depth361

Bro, cold storage IS simple. Simple and beautiful, and perfect. My absolute best advice is to take a couple hours of your time to study and co sider cold storage once more. It's the most simple of all forms of conservation of your money. Easy method: - split your 24 words in 3 groups : A, B and C. - engrave A+B on one metal plate, B+C on a second and A+C on a third one. - store one at your home and the 2 others in a different geographical place (your parents basement, your office, your bank, a safe, etc) Get a TREZOR at home to get a new BTC address every time you move your purchase to cold storage. Take the time to really understand it. It ceases to appear complicated then. And boom, you have simplicity and the most robust form of self sovereignty. Not your keys not your coin. Can't trust banks with your future. If you're buying BTC because you think it's going up next year and wanna make a few bucks then okay. If you're buying Bitcoin because you want out of all of "this", then self custody is the way. Banks may fail you. ETF is paper bitcoin. YOU CAN DO THIS.

Money-King8153

🖐️ that’s me! Come on 50k BTC! I hold 10% of my portfolio at any price and Add to it up 20% on dips. Always a toe in the water no matter what.

Schindlers_Cat

I have a price target for BTC. If it reaches that, maybe I buy some. Who cares, it's a risky investment among a pool of many other investments. What I love is watching people who full send and then start sweating. Maybe it goes up and you get more bananas. Maybe it goes down more and you have less bananas for a bit.

Cute_Style3598

Summarizing this thread...BTC rises above 70k as all the cheapskates waiting for sub 50k sub 40k sub 30k! lol start to squirm..

FlagFootballSaint

Same thoughts here. If you zoom out what he does makes no sense in the long run. There is no end game in this.  In the end he will need to start selling BTC to pay dividends. That‘s gambling with money from others

rmn_swiss

I agree. I would buy tokens like $BTC, some $ETH and $SOL. I just put a small money into my fun tokens / memes / casino tokens :-D

Seattleman1955

Probably because when you don't, BTC doesn't have a very good return. QQQ has beat it since 2021.

staywoakes1

Saylor will hold 1m BTC by the end of the year

Ok-Pea4148

100$ a week for 26 years is - 595,355 $ if BTC performs 10%/year on average - 1,368,006 $ if it performs 15%/year on average - 3,222,933 $ if it performs 20%/year on average For your information 🙂

GPThought

cardano is the poster child for why you should never fall in love with a project. the tech roadmap sounds amazing on paper but the market doesnt care about academic papers and peer-reviewed research when there's nothing built on it that people actually use. compare the TVL - ETH has $50B+ locked in defi, SOL has billions, cardano has like $300M after years of promises. at some point you gotta judge projects by what they shipped not what they plan to ship. the $1000 to $312 lesson: never go all-in on a single alt. spread across BTC + 2-3 alts max and accept that some will die.

TheMuel7

Good on you for investing early, not many people do this at your age. Down the track you should consider diversifying your portfolio. Look into some managed funds, in different regions of the world (markets react differently, have money in different parts of the world If able) - (vangaurd, QQQ etc) Posting in BTC reddit will probably be an echo chamber. Get advice elsewhere too. I am long on BTC, but would never advise my 14 yr old son to put all his money into BTC alone. Good on you for doing something with your money at 14, not many/ if any people your age do this. But remember investing is a long term thing, not a get rich quick thing, keep plugging away and you will be ahead of most people when you are 30

Socalwarrior485

Every company in the US already do this for all cash and cash equivalents. In other words, all currencies. It’s called mark to market. Even MSTR had to do this with their BTC

BestialitySurprise

Overleveraging is what lead to the great depression. Going all-in with money that isn't yours is dangerous. Some assets do collapse completely and it doesn't take complete collapse to wipe you out if debt is involved; I've been there. I don't think BTC is one of those assets that's going to collapse. But the price swings will eventually subside once it becomes widely used. It will at some point lose its appeal to the risk takers.

usedmattress85

You say “patterns and halving cycles blah blah blah” as if they haven’t played out exactly as predicted. That’s the point. BTC has never found the bottom of the bear until it blows through the realized price and touches the balanced price, and until the measurement of BTC holders in profit and loss have crossed over among various other metrics. Acting like those metrics are meaningless is absurd, they are very very strong patterns which you can use to guide you. If you want to blah blah blah patterns this strong go ahead but there’s no need to be rude to people who are actually attempting to offer you solid advice.

nugymmer

It only applies to BTC, not alts.

Seattleman1955

What is Bitcoin or what is Fidelity? Fidelity is a brokerage account. You can also buy BTC directly or even transfer in your own BTC.

Shikamaru1389

I started with BTC last year I just mine for shits and giggles how does a paper wallet work . Which exchanges do they work with . CAn I just do like a regular transfer from coinbase or kraken . Where I go send and scan QR code . Also I read that the pad key you create offline I know nothing about wallets and storage the only one I know how to use is coinbase

Safe-Painter-9618

only 25% of my investments go to BTC. 70% VOO the other 5% is US bonds

GPThought

crowded shorts are literally free money for market makers. they just need to push price up 2-3% and the cascade of liquidations does the rest. last time shorts were this extreme BTC went from 26k to 48k in like two months. im not saying history repeats exactly but the setup is almost identical. record short interest + fear index in the teens + ETF inflows still positive = one hell of a squeeze brewing. not financial advice but if i was short btc right now i would not be sleeping well.

subcrtical

lol. Let’s watch BTC halve in value, then talk to me about all those potential buyers.

theincognito66

We're still so early... think about what the next 10 years will do to the value of the dollar. BTC will continue to be an attractive way to combat inflation. There's going to be 3 halvings between now and the end of 2036... 99.6% of BTC will have been mined by then. There will hopefully be more mass adoption and use in daily transactions, strengthening its usability as a currency. I'm extremely optimistic of things to come here.

Unable_Illustrator_2

Most of the pl saying they are waiting for 30k BTC are ppl who won't even buy there because they are probably perma bears. Anyone that is actually truly interested in BTC will just keep scaling in.

picircle

Sell now or go broke! BTC is a scam. It fooled all people. AI and quantum computing will break the algorithm in no time! It will be $55k next week and then a crash!

rmn_swiss

Yeah, I generally agree. I still expect lower prices from here. My base case is that $BTC puts in its low sometime over the next six months, give or take, while $ETH, $SOL, and other alts continue to lag behind $BTC. Bitcoin usually finds its footing first. The rest of the market tends to follow with a delay. That’s why patience and positioning matter right now.

rmn_swiss

Yeah, I wouldn’t try to catch a falling knife either. It also makes sense to DCA into higher-conviction, more established assets first, like $BTC, then $ETH and $SOL, before moving further out on the risk curve into L1 ecosystem tokens or memes.

BlazeDemBeatz

I started and got interested in investing when the housing market crashed in 2008. I’d say discipline is earned with time. I remember being impatient. By the time I got into crypto I had it all out of my system. Last cycle when FTX crashed and BTC went back down to like 15k I was buying everything I could afford to lose. I was in the red like most others were. Upped my DCA, Held and didn’t touch. When we cracked a new ATH I quit buying. When we hit 100k plus I started DCA out. Bought a second home. Bought 2 new cars. Last year was a really good year. Now prices are back down, fear and greed it at the bottom. Hope to repeat the process.

Vegetable_Peanut2166

There’s no clear series of events if quantum breaks. That said if you never spent you’d probably be fine for that wallet. Your only at risk if you expose your key to the network (send BTC)

Express-Economist-86

I may be an island on this sub but I love the GoMining app. I’ve bought what I’ve bought, I get BTC every 24 hours, never had a problem, and because it represent a miner, when price goes down and smaller operations turn off, I just get more BTC from the adjustment. I just did my numbers, it’s 4,400 SATS more than January, same TH, I’m ahead of my self-imposed growth schedule Usual disclaimer: if you do it, best return rate is by maxing discounts, then just chilling. It’s not for making a quick buck - probably like 2.5 years unless BTC goes crazy… but since I bought the equipment, I get to do what’s a little like DCA but every day, pre-invested. Just works for me, I’ve sold on peaks before and regretted in a few months. With the app I just stack.

Ragnogrimmus

It will moon in June. Most likely, it depends on inflationary concerns. BTC may drop to lows in the 30 to 40k region for a few months. Watch the Moon in June. If its hanging low in May, a good time to take a chance.

No-Masterpiece2246

I was told by rBitcoin Maxies that rBtc is a scam, here we are 2 years later and BCH has 5xed. BTC 0.5xed.

Its not dead, its a money maker and it exists to broaden investment opportunities. Crypto currency is a poor name. It just sounds good. They are crypto assets and BTC will remain. It makes sense for it to remain. But with that said some assets will disappear, BTC will continue to grow albeit not the 49'ers gold rush level. But by all means sell off all your crypto do you by any chance have short position? If so you may do alright over the next couple of months. Wouldnt hold short to long though. BTC was climbing back up to 100,000 and higher right as the president threatened the EU with higher tarrifs. And Venezuela and the take Greenland by force as a new fissure in a glacier just ripped open. 14 million years ago Greenland was a sub tropical island with similar amounts of co2. -_0

The scaling FUD never ends. As if BTC ever scaled? XMR current;y has 200x the capacity of BTC. FCMP can reduce the capacity but it'll still be 50x that of BTC.

Satoshi Nakamoto's original intention in creating Bitcoin was: to establish a global electronic cash system that could circulate peer-to-peer, independent of banks or governments, using decentralized cryptographic technology. Early email records show that Satoshi Nakamoto was more concerned with: Technical feasibility System stability Security rather than price appreciation. At the time, 1 BTC had almost no value. The first real transaction was in 2010 when someone used 10,000 BTC to buy a pizza.

1m BTC is 1/22 of the entire supply, no?

It probably does not take a lot to move ZEC. There's less ZEC in supply than BTC.

Yup, might get 55-60, but won’t see sub 50k BTC again.

I’ll be buying everyday, don’t care why the price is. The decision is simple, I exchange my centrally controlled fiat for decentralized BTC. The exchange rate is just lower than it has been in the last couple years….so seems like a good exchange rate.

But isn’t BTC without owners will be taken in that case and it will crush the market anyway? I am bot sure I understand how it can be prevented

You are correct on what you say but let me tell you that the metrics that I have take are not from the actual price of BTC but there are from multiple On chain Indicators with actual regressions.
