FUD anyone? Fed rates cut on the next door
Ah Solana FUD, weird how there’s never many upvotes on Solana shill posts
TLDR: This is a FUD low quality article with zero references and missleading information
What FUD? Haven't heard good panic fodder for years now, resistance against Bitcoin is pretty much dead. There is no reason not to be chill right now. Unless you have a lot of excess fiat.
FET - ignore the Ocean smoke screen, ASI is showing they're able to get access to high performance GPUs, and the project has some serious funding, infrastructure, and brains behind it. They're going for a vertically integrated decentralized Ai stack and I don't see anything else out there like it. If you REALLY want some risk/reward for maximum leverage, TRNR. They're positioning as a FET treasury and there's a lot of FUD around it. I'm pretty confident they've still got roughly 40M FET tokens, but the trick is to enter in small chunks or try to time your entry (good luck) because they've been shorting and diluting the pants off it. But do the math, $5M market cap holding 40M of a token that's like 10 to 15x below it's ATH. It's like they're building the bones of a manufactured meme stock. The investors behind this have some serious money, coupled with ASIs ability to acquire Big Boy Nvidia GPUs, the ability to buy compute on those GPUs with the tokens, and their professional grade development base and infrastructure, I think it is one of the best deep value plays out there. Of course, you have to ask why it's "undervalued" because there's no free lunch. The best answer I have for why it's so cheap is that the Ocean dispute is manufactured drama to keep the price low for accumulation. It just doesn't make sense to me that a project being taken this seriously would have such a public bitch fit while they continue to build the rails and secure contracts (one of them being with Telegram for fucks sake lmao)
👆🏼 FUD parrot flapping around squawking things he heard.
Bro, I’ve been in this market for 8 years. Keep showing how much of fresh meat you are in crypto. If this FUD actually works on you then you don’t have the balls to be in this market and are just going to invest with your emotions and lose all your money. I’ve been investing in crypto since 2017 and have never not made profit.
You realize that they have enough assets to last 10 years even if BTC was 20k the whole time? You all talk like you know anything but you don’t even know what reserves Strategy has. This is just FUD like how Tether has been supposedly going bankrupt for the past 8 years.
What is this FUD nonsense And why is it the highest voted in a crypto sub!??
They all have their own reasons for still showing up every day here. - Some have just hated BTC/Crypto for years, and while watching it climb 10-100x over the past decade, these downturns are their only source of joy and hope. - Some here sold already, and are now mentally/emotionally invested in not being "wrong" about it. - Some gamblers have an active financial interest in the price going down, so showing up here to spread FUD and doomposting turns into their little side-gig. - Some are just destitute and full of regret for not taking any profits/doubling-down on dead alts/other poor financial decisions, and just use these dailies as a crying pillow.
Governments can definitely hurt Bitcoin in the short term with bans, taxes, or scary headlines we’ve seen that with China, India FUD, and even the U.S. at times.But making it go to basically zero just by condemning it isn’t really how it works anymore. It’s global, decentralized trades 24/7 and has millions of holders across dozens of countries. One government can crash the price temporarily, but killing the network itself is a whole different story.
Strategy will be fine. Bears just love FUD.
BTC would have to hit about 20k and stay there for years for that to happen. It’s just FUD. Just like how Teather has been supposedly about to blowup for the past 8 years.
This, held since 2014, I don’t know how I’ve done it to be honest. It either allowed me to retire at 60 or I carry on working, no compromise no listening to the FUD, the hate, the banks, the governments. I retired this year.
A millionaire with zero reading comprehension and an inferiority complex. OK you win the internet with your 3mil paid off house lol. Projection and insecurity. Strawman arguments all of them. We were talking about MSTR FUD remember. Nice edit on your previous post. Grok do that for you? Crypto cowboy huh...so spicy! There are so many strawman arguments in your feeble minded rants. Firstly, I never said anything about MSTR being the only vehicle to financial freedom. I am one of many in my circle that bought MSTR early. Its not that special actually. Good luck and future success.
Anything even remotely technical, metric-driven, constructive or even *optimistic* gets downvoted or buried by endless and incessant bears / buttcoiners / bots in here these days. Meanwhile, most people who would be on the other side of the fence have either capitulated to the FUD or left for another sub where they can actually discuss things. In a sub that still tries to attract advertisers, it's amazing that Mods allow people to flood this space with negativity & FUD day after day.
What a strawman. I was specifically talking to the people who are actively FUDing MSTR. The ponzi and pyramid scheme references. And specifically why would you buy? Answer, because every share holder accumulates more of the underlying asset. My initial buy of MSTR was at less than $20. I cashed out the majority over $400. There will be more cycles. This just sounds like the same old BTC FUD we have been hearing forever. You went on a wild tangent there. BTC, FBTC, and MSTR combined is less than 20% of net worth including real estate. You made a lot of assumptions. Look beyond what exactly? Whats are your allocations? Teach me something.
Yeah, I do wonder why, why every time someone points out that gold, real estate, foreign stocks, or literally any other inflation hedge exists, the MSTR maxi cult screams “FUD!!!” like you just mentioning other assets is a personal attack. It's not. I own bitcoin myself. Bitcoin is 16 years old. Gold has been a store of value for 5,000 years. Real estate has worked forever. Swiss francs, Japanese stocks, commodity funds all of them have protected wealth from dying fiat currencies without a single sat involved. Asking “why not just buy the BTC directly or an ETF instead of this convertible-debt circus?” isn’t “believing the strength of fiat” or cheerleading fiat, it’s literally the most basic due diligence question ever. Pretending that question = blindness is peak cult energy. Look beyond, or don't. Whatever. I'll keep taking a multi prong approach to protecting myself from fiat debasement. Thank you.
I assume that people will figure it out. Do you know the answer to "why someone would buy MSTR instead of raw BTC or an ETF? There are entire threads repeating a negative narratives on every platform simultaneously. Do you wonder why? Every share holder that has held for any reasonable amount of time owns more BTC or Satoshis per share today. More BTC for the initial investment. That is called leverage. So yes people who dont understand need to stop spreading FUD they heard, and instead do some research for themselves. There is room to own all three. BTC, ETF, and MSTR. All for different reasons.
The end of bitcoin again? Sigh. Worst. FUD. Ever.
Thank you 🫡 so much FUD lately, I like to remind myself all the reasons and arguments supporting my thesis. The world needs sound money which Bitcoin solves
Funny vid but the meme is buttcoiner FUD.

Don’t be fooled by the FUD don’t be tricked by ones that hold the most money. They know what’s happening
Things were very different back in 2017. Don’t feel bad for selling. I‘ve been on this bitcoin journey since late 2022, so not that long. But even just a few years ago, there was so much FUD - Gary Gensler FUD, Operation Choke Point 2.0... etc. Jamie Dimon was trash talking Bitcon and now we see JP Morgan accepting BTC as collateral. How absurd. Keep stacking and Hodling!
You have a fundamental misunderstanding of how their business structure, debt, and financial obligations function. They would just take on more collateralized debt against their bitcoin holdings. This is what the wealthy and institutions do. There are plenty of banks who would be happy to give them loans and they have their own way to create and sell collateralized debt via their reserve notes. Those notes cannot be sold until 2029 at the earliest. Unless bitcoin sat for the next 3 years below their average price (~$74,000), it is extremely unlikely they have to sell any of their bitcoin holdings until the reserve notes can be redeemed. They also plan to sell more reserve notes that are leveraged versions of what they already have and expire later/earlier in 2026. They have tons of ways to create capital and they are a publicly traded company, but nobody wants to take a bit to actually find that info. They'd rather just spread FUD and sound regarded.
How are *we* going to need it? Did anyone here claim to have a stake is MSTR besides just owning bitcoin? If you're talking about the risk of bitcoin dropping in price because your MSTR FUD fantasy comes true, then most long-term holders probably wouldn't lose their conviction on the future success of the asset. In fact., a lot of the people that have been in the space for years would be happy or relieved that MSTR failed because they don't like the idea of Wall Street types having that much of a stake in the game.
Well, they can't give you all those details because then it wouldn't fit their FUD narrative of Strategy selling bitcoin.
Japan has already said they're gonna print. China has already said they're gonna print. Trump has already said he's going to print. The clarity act is coming. This is literally the most bullish macro landscape in the history of BTC. If you're buying the FUD rn have fun being poor.
The FUD is on steroids lately.
Idk if people have amnesia or if this FUD it’s going from new investors who doesn’t know that Strategy was already underwater on 2022 in their BTC and they didn’t sold a single thing.
It's often used to drive the price down, when Google Willow came out a lot of casual retailers flocked crypto subs and kept asking if Bitcoin is doomed, it's s bigger challenge than Y2K but since the solutions are there it's not a huge concern, if Bitcoin even crashes seriously to the quantum FUD it will be the easiest bet for a rebound.
I'm fed up with quantum FUD, I hope they'll upgrade the chains soon since it's not a big issue just like with traditional tech, it's just new Y2K, it will be costly but not a doomsday.
If having 89k(current 1 btc price) you can put into anything is an achievement, then having 1 btc is an achievement. I'd bet on BTC being a no-brainer move in 10 years after the fact. Just like it is now. The train isn't stopping and every time there's stalling and dumps in the road the FUD spreaders come out like their life depends on it. Banks are literally giving the OK to normies that BTC is an investment option now. Right now you don't know anyone who even looks at BTC because all they read is FUD to confirm their already held beliefs that BTC is a ponzi scheme rug pull. Soon they will be buying, pumping your bags because the banks said so. Even in a scenario where BTC is a ponzi scheme rug pull, there's still many many years of riding that scheme to the upside. You'd be silly to not take advantage.
That’s real! Done arguing against the same old refreshed 2010’s FUD. Spend that energy figuring how to stack more sats instead.

OK except i bought TQQQ right before the split a couple weeks ago and im not regretting it... so do you big guy.🤷 I understand your point, but it's a valid trade theory, and a validated one. Just because you think it's stupid and just "cosmetic" doesn't mean that that's true. You think if large investment firms "chase" splits, and then the sentiment of retail traders condemns you for doing the exact same thing; might just be some FUD, and just don't understand the benefit behind the "vanity' of it? Because value can't be quantified by metrics thats why "value" and "price point" speculation is even possible. Because value is subjective.
Keep going. If it’s not super FUD it’s super hopium on here 😂 Enjoy the ride and embrace it because crypto is inherently volatile (and that’s part of its attraction)
This is absolutely right, there are existential risks to IBIT over self-custody. But that's very different from saying that IBIT isn't owning Bitcoin at all. I understand the slogan, but suggesting that IBIT is merely a "vehicle that generally tracks bitcoin" is not correct. Suggesting that if the economy collapses and Bitcoin does well you'll own nothing is not correct. It's FUD. Self-custody has government seizure risk as well, for anyone who isn't prepared to fight their government when the gov says, hey, we see you moved that bitcoin from Coinbase into this account with XXX public key. Send it to us or you're going to jail. So it's not as clear as y'all make it sound.

Everyone is believing in FUD. Meanwhile the Trump Family is [buying Bitcoin ](https://a2zcryptocurrencies.com/trump-family-crypto-fortune/) like it's the last opportunity
Post is by: Samurailaronkes and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoCurrency/comments/1pdcj93/cex_and_the_market_maker_cartel_are_killing/ Crypto is drifting backwards and nobody wants to admit it. We tweet "decentralization" like a prayer. We put laser eyes on our avatars. We quote Satoshi. We pretend we're building a revolution. Meanwhile? Three companies control whether your project lives or dies. Three companies decide if you get liquidity. Three companies charge millions to run bots in the dark, dump your tokens whenever they feel like it, and call it "market making." DWF. Wintermute. GSR. Say the names. Know them. Because they own you. They own all of us. And we handed them the keys willingly because we forgot what we were supposed to be building. We've watched this game for years. Years of charts that bleed the same way. Years of "partnerships" announced with fanfare, followed by slow death. Years of communities asking "why did we dump?" while the answer was right there - invisible, hidden, protected by NDAs and offshore entities and the comfortable lie that this is just how markets work. It's not how markets work. It's how extraction works. They take your tokens at a discount. They run volume - fake, real, does it matter when you can't see the difference? They pump enough to bring in retail. Then they sell. Slowly. Invisibly. While running buy-side bots so the chart looks healthy. You hold. They exit. You call it a bear market. They call it Tuesday. And DEX? DEX was supposed to be the answer. Permissionless. On-chain. Transparent. No gatekeepers. But DEX has no infrastructure. One whale sells ten thousand dollars and your chart collapses thirty percent. Community panics. Telegram goes quiet. Twitter turns to FUD. Six months of building, dead in an afternoon. Not because the project was bad. Because nobody defended it. Because there was no liquidity depth. Because DEX doesn't have billion-dollar machines running in the background like every CEX token you've ever traded. The game is rigged at the infrastructure level. And we keep playing anyway. We're tired. Tired of watching good projects die from one whale exit. Tired of watching shit projects survive because they paid the right people. Tired of pretending volume is organic when half of it is bots trading with bots. Tired of the lie that decentralization means anything when three companies control liquidity across the entire market. Tired of being exit liquidity for algorithms that see everything while we see nothing. So here's where we're at. Market making isn't evil. It's necessary. Someone has to provide liquidity. Someone has to absorb the impact when whales move. Someone has to make markets function. The evil is the secrecy. When you can't see the bots - that's manipulation. When you can't see the capital - that's manipulation. When you can't see net flow, can't see if they're buying or dumping, can't verify a single trade - that's manipulation. But when you CAN see everything? That's just infrastructure. That's just math. That's just a service that keeps projects alive instead of a black box that extracts from them. Nobody's building this. Everyone's too scared to admit market making exists. Everyone's too scared to break the taboo. Everyone would rather pretend their volume is organic than admit they need bots just like everyone else. So we stay silent. We let the cartels operate in darkness. We pay our millions and pray they don't dump too hard. We call it "partnership" because "protection money" sounds too honest. What would it even look like if someone broke the silence? What if a project just... said it? We're running market makers. Here's how many bots. Here's how much capital. Here's net flow in real-time. Here's every trade, logged, verifiable, on-chain. We're doing what DWF does. Except you can see all of it. Except we can't dump in secret. Except we don't charge five million dollars for the privilege. Would that be manipulation? Or would that be the most honest thing anyone's ever done in this space? Don't we want someone to try it? Aren't we waiting for someone to have the balls to break the taboo, expose the game, and prove that transparency beats secrecy? Maybe we'll keep waiting forever. Or maybe someone's already building it and we just don't know yet. Decentralization was supposed to mean we don't need permission. We don't need gatekeepers. We don't need to pay tribute to cartels who decide whether we live or die. It's time to remember. It's time to stop tweeting the word and start building the thing. It's time to take market making - the last centralized chokepoint - and crack it open. We didn't come here to play by their rules. We came here to build new ones. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Such an uneducated FUD. The author wants to tell us about Ethereum but tells us about his ignorance
For some winter cannot happen, and the 8th 20% drop this cycle is as significant as the shit I did this morning after a coffee. Shame the influencers and traders out there FUD like they know something all day.
None of the competing blockchains is as cheap, as fast and as decentralised as Ethereum nowadays. You rely on outdated FUD. Ethereum's ecosystem processes up to 34 000 TPS lately (average is 4000) and the upgrade of tonight will bring up 100 000 peak TPS. I'm talking about user TPS, don't compare it with the deceptive TPS metric of Solana (in reality Solana starts to break down above 800 user TPS, hence the regular black outs) https://l2beat.com/scaling/activity

Hopefully their shorts all got liquidated. People can have various opinions but the FUD was insane.
This is solid intel. Saylor basically removed one of the biggest overhangs from BTC price action this cycle. Having $1.44 billion in cash to cover dividends means MicroStrategy doesn’t need to touch their BTC stash anytime soon, which kills a lot of the FUD we saw in 2021–2024. It’s funny how over-prepared they are. The market can breathe a little easier knowing the forced-seller risk is basically gone for the next couple of years. Also, your Bitget side note is relatable, sometimes these small moves or hedges give you an edge without needing to go full-on leverage. The market feels like it’s rewarding actual holders more than noise traders right now.
This sub is just FUD central. If it’s not Tether or China ban or quantum computing or Saylor then there’s nothing else to talk about. Is there any evidence that there’s even enough people still reading this garbage that it’s worth the effort of rehashing FUD over and over and over again? Who benefits from this bullshit? My only guess is options traders but I refuse to believe anyone with actual money would be caught dead taking this sub seriously.
There's no FUD. I bought into cryptocurrency via MSTR because I want a mutually beneficial relationship. My purchase of MSTR helps Saylor buy more bitcoin (helping you!) and hopefully you, as a bitcoiner, will understand that sending us a bit of help in times of need (MNAV 1.0) will keep your digital assets from being destroyed. Yes, this is a threat, but it's also a carrot and the stick.
Man this FUD just keeps going around.
Dear u/Ok-Antelope4008 , Thank you for your enthusiasm. As conservative experts, we see significant risk in putting almost all your net worth into one highly volatile digital asset. Concentrating your wealth like this can expose you to catastrophic financial loss if the asset's value plunges suddenly. 1. Here’s the big question: If Bitcoin increases, you stand to gain a lot. But if it crashes, you could lose a major portion of your savings overnight, seriously jeopardizing your financial future. It may also be much harder to explain a large loss to your spouse than to make the investment now. With Bitcoin’s extreme volatility, both dramatic gains and steep losses are real possibilities. 2. Not having enough diversification, also known as the 'don’t put all your eggs in one basket' rule is a big concern. We recommend building a portfolio with a mix of reliable income sources like T-bills, municipal bonds, and your annual retainer fee. 3. Now, consider the paperwork. Tracking the cost basis for each transaction to report capital gains can be complex. Our fees for detailed crypto tax preparation are significant, and you might find a traditional S&P 500 index fund more straightforward. In short, we understand it’s hard to watch others make big gains, but our warning is simple: investing more than you can afford to lose could put your long-term financial stability in real danger and lead to regrets with permanent consequences. P.S. Keep in mind that what some call 'FUD' can often be a reasonable reminder that markets involve risks. If you need assistance reviewing your unrealized losses, please contact us.

BlackRock Inc. bought IBIT massively in Q3, JPM holds roughly $300m for themselves. They are both selling ETFs and buying for themselves. But good for them if others are selling, as Bitcoin is a zero-sum game supply-wise. You can only buy what others are selling, therefore spread as much FUD as possible.
I'm curious that it happened today, not yesterday. All the Bitcoin FUD was yesterday and we saw MSTR take a pounding, yet ABTC dropped today and MSTR recovered....
No pumping. This includes links to "pump and dump" groups or signals groups. No vote manipulation. Do not solicit upvotes or complain about/predict downvotes. Do not use any "karma-boosting" services, subreddits, or techniques to link any content from this sub to influence upvotes/downvotes. No shilling or FUD (fear, uncertainty, doubt). Do not use multiple sock-puppet accounts to manipulate votes or achieve a narrative. No brigading and always use NP (No-Participation) links. See our Expanded Rules page for more details on this rule.
Check out all the uninformed fudsters and bots. Keep eating up the FUD that is coming directly from the big banks that have the most to gain from the real ponzi USD. Too bad you missed out on MSTR pre split. Life changing. But instead you buy high and sell low and cry, or you listen to FUD. Do your own research.
I tried to post this as a thread, but mods deleted the it two times, maybe someone upset IMHO... Whatever here what I think happened: Bitcoin survives another Market Manipulation Monday: Early Warning Signs: •"China bans Bitcoin" — the crypto world's "Groundhog Day" rerun • Satoshi-era Bitcoin wallets show activity • A major whale offloads large holdings before market open • Media/FUD cycle kicks in: quantum computing "threatens" Bitcoin, exchange hacks, recycled fear narratives from the usual suspects During the Dip: •Markets open 5–10% down • Hundreds of billions in USDT (and other stablecoins) shift between exchanges • USDT Treasury mints billions, while only a few hundred dollars worth gets burned Recovery: •A few days later, markets rebound — often by Friday close • Thousands of Bitcoin move off exchanges (accumulation signal) I'm posting BS ?
Yep, it's been a great journey. As for the FUD, same shit different cycle. The specific reasons and details are different as usual, but the sentiment and price action is basically very similar. No doubt there are some structural things that are actually new and different today compared to 8 years ago, but it's all good news from a fundamental standpoint. If you had told me in 2017 that Bitcoin and other mainstream crypto assets would be trading on Wall Street, that institutional adoption would be well underway, that countries states and big colleges like Harvard would be buying, etc. I would have said that's the big dream and goal but maybe it will never happen. Now it's happening, but we're at "extreme fear" because of short term price action. I honestly couldn't be more bullish.
You dont know that's the point. I never said companies. I said institutions. Pension funds for example own lots of MSTR. They have no mechanism to hold BTC. In many countries it would be against the law for the Pension Fund to buy BTC. However, they can buy a BTC backed security or ETF like MSTR or FBTC. Find out for yourself. The measure of MSTR that matters is satoshis per share. If every share holder is only receiving more BTC over time (we are) it cant be a ponzi. FUD is working to shake out people who don't understand MSTR and aren't fully bought into BTC.
Best part about the FUD is everybody seems to have a different reason as to why Bitcoin is screwed. They can’t even come close to a consensus
Awesome, are you loving this bitcoin journey? I know I am. Lots of FUD last month: 50-MA FUD, Quantum computing FUD, MSTR FUD, Japanese Carry Trade FUD. Just sitting back and chilling 🙂
It's either a bull-trap or the bottom. FUD or FOMO, only one thing is certain: F.
This title feels like you’re just trying to push FUD
Stocks and fiat assets can’t be truly owned. They’re always controlled by custodians and the banking system. The people closest to the money printer have all the incentives to hate Bitcoin and crypto and try to destroy it. That’s not conspiracy. Operation Chokepoint 2.0 already showed how real the pressure is and the transition won’t be smooth either. This sub is also clearly getting swarmed by bots and FUD accounts trying to steer sentiment. But the solution to this madness is simple. Ignore the noise, stack Bitcoin through DCA and withdraw to cold storage. Screw these crooked banks, who didn’t seem to have a problem banking Epstein, and these Wall Street rats…even if they hold lots of it themselves and manipulate price short-term. These are all horsemen hating on cars.
You’re another lemming who can't face the music and NO Bitcoin has been selling off for the good part of a week and no I am neither short or long I am simply stating the visialization of what capitulation looks like of course you wouldn't know what that is because your head is stuck in hopium land and denial of what's really happening. It shocks the conscience how many of you just do not want to see any negative charts, feedback or otherwise. You should not be investing and it's not FUD it's FACTS
Big banks hate MSTR and Stablecoins. Be on the lookout for nonstop FUD. Who wins if Saylor looses? You think its a coincidence that crypto dumped and the NYT published a hit piece on Davis Sachs? Yall some dumb mother f ers
It's actually terrifying how many AI comments I sift through on here. People are gradually being brainwashed by organised FUD that they just think is someone giving their opinion lol. I'm glad someone else is also aware.
Did you hodl through the FTX collapse? that’s when I got into crypto. I bought BTC like psycho when everyone was panic selling. lots of FUD back then. Things have changed a lot since.
[Watch this](https://youtu.be/l6m2yAdBFjA?si=xcV2fJIsyEOKxWlB) for more context. This post is pure FUD.
This sub has been infiltrated by bots and FUD posters spreading nothing but FUD and hate. Who are the deployers of this social engineering attack? 🤔
Im a noob (March '24), and was stacking hard through 2024, and regularly dca'ing this year, but basically all this FUD is new to me. It feels like lots of noise though. People seem to freak out from one day to the next. I dont know what people read up on, or whether they've jumped into something without learning about it, but i was aware of the potential of a 2026 bear market in summer 2024! The Buttcoin weirdos gleefully posting about about a 30% drop. Ok. And...? This isnt the s&p. A 30% drop is just Tuesday. Its happened before. Its come back stronger. People seem to expect massive gains over a short period of time, and yeah, sure, thats happened before, but its becoming less volatile. Id love a 1300% green candle. Don't think it'll happen. I'd be happy with a 13% one. I'm sure things are being lined up accordingly. US midterms in 11 months. Trump wont look like the saviour of the western economy if the economy is healthy to begin with. You've got mini Trump extolling the virtues of btc and literally saying to buy more. This isnt a ponzi. Theyre not the CEO of Bitcoin. Yes, they'll gain, but not *that much* in the grand scheme of things. Even Saylor selling some... it'll be to buy the dip. Nobody knows whats going to happen, but there are big players who have a damn good idea.
And why should they sell because of that? I see a lot of people writing this but there is no reason to why this is. I feel like it's just FUD but what do I know..
Nope... not even close. They have about a 6 year runway on credit. BTC would have to fall below around 17K before they would need to start selling. That could happen I guess. But unlikely. Odds are better that BTC will pump to new ATH well within 6 yrs. Trad-Fi is pissed that Saylor front ran them. The Bankers are on a full scale FUD assault because they want his BTC.
Every halving cycle (~4 years) new adopters learn lessons the hard way. The simple answer is, if your investment window is greater than 4 years, just accumulate when you can and hold. If you know you have to withdraw significantly within 4 years, bitcoin might not be for you. Get familiar with the concepts of FOMO (Fear of missing out) and FUD (Fear, uncertainty and doubt). Understand that when everyone is telling you to buy, be skeptical. When everyone is saying it’s dead, take advantage. The irrationality around FOMO and FUD is what large investors take advantage of because they have the means to move the market in a big way. Also understand the difference between realized and unrealized gains and losses. If you’re holding, you haven’t lost anything. If you sell, you’ve materialized the loss and likely incurred a tax liability.

More than **$500M in long positions were liquidated**, sending shockwaves across traders. Why did Bitcoin crash, and how deep can this go?

>there's not a lot of untapped sources of investment at this point means things could change going forward This is the part that has me wondering about future upside, or at least "moon" upside. I do think there is more BTC penetration to be had as a part of portfolios, but for the most part at this point people who want BTC have some exposure. The question i haven't been able to answer (in practical, non-orange pilled terms) is where the trillions of dollars of buying power necessary for the multi-hundred K price points going to come from? Many would call this FUD around here but you can be a fan without drinking Kool aid.
Thank you. This makes way more sense than the Korean exchange FUD.
They did not ban bitcoin. The central bank reminded all that using bitcoin to trade is still "banned". Normally is India that bans and unbans bitcoin every six months. Do people still remind of that FUD in the last bull market? :)
STRD: 1.25b notional @ 10% = $125m / year. Strategy is not obligated to pay the dividend. STRK: $1.4b notional @ 8% = $112m / year. Strategy is not obligated to pay the dividend. STRC: $3b notional @ 10.5% = $315m / year. Strategy can defer paying dividends for a long time at a very low interest rate STRF: $1.25b notional @ 10% = $125m / year. Strategy can defer paying dividends for a long time at a very low interest rate. Strategy has a stack of $56b in bitcoin to make these payments. Your sky-is-falling assessment of Strategy's financial situation is pure FUD.
A small South Korean exchange being hacked has created some FUD perhaps.
From COIN MARKET ISRAIL @israil_4life on X (Twitter) Breaking Down the "Saylor Strategy Dump" Rumor: Real Risk or JP Morgan FUD?The viral claim circulating on X (formerly Twitter) suggests that Michael Saylor's company—now rebranded as Strategy (ticker: $MSTR)—could be forced to liquidate its entire ~650,000 BTC stack (valued at ~$58.4B at current prices) if its market-implied net asset value (mNAV) dips below 0.9x. With mNAV reportedly at ~0.96x now, a BTC price drop under $80K would allegedly trigger this "nuclear option." This has sparked panic, with posts warning of a market-crushing supply flood. But is this a genuine existential threat to Bitcoin, or just recycled fear, uncertainty, and doubt (FUD) amplified by JP Morgan's bearish notes? Let's dissect the facts, mechanics, and incentives step by step
i bought 15 btc back in 2013 to buy an 8th on SR. Then watched it go to $150 a coin then $500, then $1000, then 2000. So i bought 2 to hold in 2017 for $4k each. watched it go to $60k, didn't sell until it went to $15 and sold 1 cuz i got bit by the FUD. But told myself I would never sell that coin. Now just been accumulating since then. It goes up and down, and after being in for quite some time and watching the cycles repeat themselves and the news repeats itself, I have become stronger at resisting the temptation to sell. I believe it will always be an asset with value and at the very least, will continue to be a store of value and probably grow a lot mor eover the next 20 years. My investment horizon is long, and try not to worry about the swings, as scary as they can be.
Anything longer than 90 days (and arguably less these days, thanks to Trump) would be cash equivalent...but I doubt that's what you would suggest to be the new business model for Tether... you can't be serious? > They would need an outside independent audit to prove their holdings. Seems like the attestations they produce are enough for the majority of the market, almost like the assumed risk of a mostly unregulated market is taken into account. > Until they do that, they are just creating coins from nowhere. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. But again, I wouldn't put any serious amount in USDT, they do need a full audit, the attestations are nice, but not satisfactory for my own risk management (hence my avoidance)... I'm just annoyed at unsubstantiated claims, this subreddit loves its Tether FUD and it's just circle-jerky about this.
10+ yrs same fake FUD, wake up people. Tether owns BTC, mining and gold next to US treasuries.
