I Watched +300 Bitboy Videos Totalling +46H and Here's My Analysis

There is Benjamin from ITC, and me and plenty of others who follow him..
I would avoid ITC ( Itrust capital ) like the plague!!!!!!!
If you are not on ITC pro you are missing a lot of what is valuable. Ben offers up a lot of great advise, you should always evaluate that advise with your own circumstances.
The main mistake Ben has made was thinking we were going much higher in late 2021. Otherwise the guy has been an absolute boon to my portfolio. 1) Selling alts for fiat and BTC in 2021 meant I had profits and was completely out of alts while they got wrecked over next couple years. 2) Loading up sub 25k when Ben's risk levels called for buying speaks for itself at this point 3) Holding off on alts until 60% dominance has outperformed most alt portfolios. Who cares if the timing of this prediction was off? Throughout the move he said to stick with BTC until 60% even if it takes longer than he initially anticipated 4) He's now making alt recommendations. Even suggested there was an opportunity in XRP due to the double bottom literally days before it took off. I'm obviously a biased, paying member of ITC but your list of Ben's "predictions" is largely irrelevant to his actionable content.
I'm not telling anyone to time anything. I'll be clear - I follow Ben Cowen's model and simply do a dynamic DCA strategy. When the risk levels are elevated where it's > 0.8 on the risk index, I'm selling in batches. Then I reaccumulate in the bear market years under 0.4 risk level. Has worked amazing for me and why Im at 6x ROI that I've been slowly selling. However, I have a dedicated HODL stack that I never touch but for the most part I'm following the ITC strategy and model my portfolio as such.
ITC(Ben Cowen) has had several YT-videos on this. Specifically if btc has been following it's natural cycle or if influenced by politics and other factors. His conclusion just prior to the election was that it has been cyclical and that the only bad outcome would be an entrenched longer term unclarity of the outcome. I believe several other YTbers have reached the same conclusion.
If you followed ITC by Ben cowen, you’d be better off. Timing is everything. Don’t tell me otherwise.
You can get the risk metrics for 15% of Bens yearly price at AlphaSquared which is also even more accurate. Solid devs running that project, can highly recommend if you don't wanna spend a fortune on ITC.
That’s exactly what i m saying from what I have grasped till now is i actually have to understand how the market actually works , i think support and resistance are the real thing i need to work more on , and thats why i asked about ITC and SMC , i know this is also just rebranding of old analytics but if it helps why not right ?
I would strongly urge everyone to read the 47(!) page new terms agreement before signing it, and unfortunately it does not seem possible to access your account without signing... I asked Itrust for, and quickly received a pdf version of it which make it much easier to review and share with legal counsel. If you read and trust the chatgpt analysis of it posted on this thread, there is plenty to be worried about. (https://chatgpt.com/share/f5e56ded-3dfd-45a0-92ef-ff3c86d336bc/continue). I am on the verge of moving my assets elsewhere as I find the lack of transparency VERY disconcerting. One note, on the arbitration clause which limits liability in favor of Itrust, there is information about opting out: *The Account Holder can choose to reject this binding agreement to arbitrate by mailing the Administrator and Custodian a written opt-out notice. The opt-out notice must be postmarked no later than 30 days after the date you accept this Agreement for the first time. You must mail the opt-out notice to ITC2.0, Inc. Attn: Compliance Department, 2372 Morse 11 4864-8630-2921, v. 1 Ave, #966, Irvine, CA 92614.*
I think he is making more money selling ITC than actual trading.
[Statement released by iTrustCapital in May](https://www.itrustcapital.com/partner-update-may-16-2024) announcing change in custodians (from Fortress to iTrust's new custodial subsidiary) - recently shared again via X by ITC
Frustrating that people don't understand that. I suspect that ITC is taking a spread, which TMK is not in their TOS. Makes me mad but what can I do.
Count your blessings !! Try to withdraw funds. You Cannot until after 90 days from the date it was deposited, Then you must schedule to fill out a form and download Zoom for up to 30 min. in-person interview. They must see you but you cannot see the interviewer. They try to make it as difficult as possible for ITC to send any of your funds back to your bank account.
Our first risk metric was created in late 2021 for BTC for our own investing purposes. The 2nd 2021 Top Indicated 80 Risk, which is the highest out of all available Metrics. Furthermore, after releasing our Model to the public, we've successfully indicated the BTC Macro Bear-Market Bottom in 2022, indicating 0-5 Risk between 16'500$ - 20'000$. We therefore currently hold the best track record for BTC Macro Risk Analysis (to our knowledge), surpassing the likes of ITC, CBBI and others.
Pricey? Compared to ITC it's cheap as hell. But I get where you're coming from. If you only have 100$ invested, it's not worth it. Hard to tell, but considering the above dca returns it would already make sense to use it for a small portfolio of 500$ and upwards, as low as that sounds. At the end of the day, less stress and time wasted is also worth something for me.
Why do it in private if you can have a decent source of income. IMO the ITC site is pretty amazing tool. Better than anything else out there I've seen other than pro-only access sites. My guess is BC has made good enough $ through investing and his business that he's more risk averse than most retail buyers and thus always cautioning instead of being too much of a moon boy like most others on YT. Soloway has never sat well with me. He's on shows and shows want predictions and too often I saw those flop. I'm guessing if he had a revenue stream like BC he wouldn't be making so many predictions. Predictions get you views and invited back to shows.
Whenever I have a trade setup, I do a final check with Ben Cowen ITC. If his thesis aligns with my setup, I abort immediately.

I’m in the process of transferring my trad ira from Merrill to ITC - will report back after finalization
I just gave away the risk for free while I pay for it. You're welcome. Next post I'll share the ITC risk. Feel free to sponsor that one if you want!
There are other reasons; my wife is on full disability, cognitively I’m slipping, and I don’t want to work anymore than I have to. I follow Ben Cowen (ITC) and plan to start selling when his risk metric reaches 80 and buy when it’s under 40. I will keep 1/3 bitcoin to leave to our kids. All of our goals are different but bitcoin as a store of value will benefit us all. Cheers!
Honestly I wish I’d realized two weeks ago that I could do an in-kind transfer to i trust capital. I was looking at taxfreecrypto.com, thinking I could transfer in kind from IRA Financial. They said they could not due to an IRS rule. Buggers. I trust capital has good reviews and I’ve been disappointed by the customer service at Equity Trust and IRA Financial on multiple occasions. The reviews indicate the ITC does exceptional service. If that’s true they would be my new go to. Prices look excellent on the surface
I bought a month of ITC and honestly some of the charts are really useful. But their predictions based on them aren’t.
Ben alluded to it in the ITC premium channel
Try going to ITC3 FBI they investigate scams if located anywhere in USA
You're welcome. It's free if you create a free trial every time you DCA. I wouldn't spend my money on ITC. It's just too costly and the risk metric failed the bottom so yeah.. not worth it.
Is it free? I’ll definitely check it out. I was going to spend the money this Black Friday for the ITC site. But I’ll hold off on that. Thanks again
I used ITC before I found alphasquared! ITC is much more expensive and alpha actually got the recent bottom whereas ben's risk metric stayed way too high. Suggest you check them out. Fair to say ITC has a lot of other metrics but risk is all I'm interested in.
If you are sidelined and missed the pump, don't feel bad because you're not alone. Literally hundreds or thousands of Ben Cowen ITC "premium subscribers" paid for the privilege of being sidelined.
It's about 56% excluding stablecoins, according to the ITC chart. Either way, it shows that liquidity continues to flow from the rest of the market towards bitcoin.

I've been a client with ITC for over 2 years, and I gotta say... I highly recommend them. Their customer support team is great and will answer any questions you have.
Did you know the Stranger Things logo font is the same as Paramount's FBI copyright warning? It's called **ITC Benguiat**, and now you have the information, enjoy.
You didn't give me anything. Solar has been increasing exponentially for the last 50 years. It's showing no signs of hitting any limits in this process. At least, in the next decade. Installation pricing is governed, like all commodity based production, by Wright's law: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Experience_curve_effects Wright's law fundamentally described how, the more we increase the scale of doing a thing, the cheaper it gets. Unlike Moore's law, which is driven by innovation, Wright's law is driven by experience. "How Much Does It Cost to Install Solar Panels? The national average solar panel cost in the U.S. is approximately $3.20 per watt. There are, however, several factors that can make this cost either go up or down. The two that influence this cost the most are: The cost to actually build and create a solar panel; and The labor costs for installing the solar system The latter number can have greater variance because companies charge different installation prices for a variety of reasons, including time of year, location, and transportation costs from their warehouses to your home. What matters right now is that those prices have dropped by 99% since 1980, and they’re projected to drop further — even after the residential ITC expires in 2023.4" https://chariotenergy.com/chariot-university/solar-panel-installation-cost/
He only promotes his own website (which is a banger) and that's it. He also reminds people it's usually a better idea to DCA into the market rather than buying an ITC membership if you have a smaller portfolio. Like him or hate him, the man is head and shoulders above 99.99% of youtubers when it comes to honesty and I respect that.
Sure. He said a million times that people with smaller portfolios are better off DCAing into the market than buying an ITC membership though, so I think that's fair. His website is also a banger.
best comment below youtube video: **BUY ITC**
I used to watch intothecryptoverse and IA. I guess ITC is the only good source of info.
tldr; Crypto analyst Dr. Benjamin Cowen, who is the Founder and CEO of Into The Cryptoverse (ITC), expressed his concerns about the expected upcoming regulatory crackdown on crypto in the US. "I think that the narrative that will fuel that will be the regulatory concerns for the altcoin market," he said. "If altcoins are deemed securities, that's not necessarily a bad thing," he added. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.*
Any of the ITC ones by Benjamin Cowen have been good
ITC premium list subscriber by any chance?
Ben Cowen ITC shows it well on YouTube, Google into the cryptoverse fear and greed, latest one
How did you claim them? I staked through ITC2 on Adalite and haven’t received mine yet.
Hopium need not read the article. LUL This sub: "Title: NFT {insert\_grand\_promise}" ITC: "My god, how did I ever live without this? ... This tech is amazing ... Revolutionary! ... Move over h8ers and see the future ... [Hell, it's about time.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_J6-3l3hCm0)" In reality: `"From there, Alfa will be able to update the NFT whenever the Tonale will be at the dealer for service or maintenance. This will create a digital log about the vehicle's entire history. At this time, the brand isn't disclosing what company it is partnering with to create these NFTs.` `According to the company, one use of the NFT will be to raise residual values of used vehicles because there will be a permanent recording of the maintenance history."` `Owners can opt out of the program if they don't want the info about their Tonale tracked with an NFT.` *So not much different than say: getting all your warranty service at the dealer and calling them up for a history ;) It's not going to magically record every-time a wrench kisses it. Mechanics can opt-out of the NFT tracking, or what if they don't possess the tools/software to update it? And don't worry, the Stealership will still be able to not do the work, but update the NFT saying they did ;)*
This only makes sense if you drop a remind me. I think ETH thrives. DOT does well. Avax and Ada stumble alone. ITC and SOL die Doge will stay in its range of 5 to 50 cents. With people calling for it to die and others still waiting on a dollar. !Remind Me 1 year!
Exactly everyone thinks they are smart ehej ITC going up.
Yeah I originally didn't stake with itc 1 or 2 because they were oversaturated and I was in a good pool, but once I heard about the sundaeswap airdrop I decided to get in ITC 3 and I'm just sticking around for the airdrop before I move to a less saturated pool again.
ITC Stake pool 3 gang represent. Let's get them sundaeswap airdrops.
Ben Cowen fell off for me. First, as a sparkling brand new BTCer, I watched his channel when the Wyckoff prediction was first made earlier this year. He's like, NO. No analysis, discussion, etc. So I buy high, and the price halves. Same with the Plan B prediction of low in late November. He just said, No, and he knows why, but he's not going to get into it. Sure enough, BTC down 20k. Isn't TA analysis looking at Down, as well as Up trends? Why not discuss TA trends, as opposed to just dismiss them? Go over the analysis, then explain why he doesn't think so. He's even said when prices rise, views go up. His ADA staking fees are not low, and I bought one of his ITC sweatshirts- $48 bucks and its cheap. LIke, $5 cheap. Like, he should be embarassed to bilk his viewers, cheap. In 2020, any clown could have a YouTube channel on crypto. Now, and in the future, real TA will be the ups, the downs, and not just intelligent deadpan delivery. Guy from Coinbureau is like someone you'd like to have a pint with and have a great conversation. Plus, no youtube ads, which for me is huge. I bought one of his T-shirts, and it was reasonably priced and high quality. \*Note- no, I don't rate all services based on swag!
If you are Ben Cowen fan you can stake your Ada with ITC and get SundaeSwap when released
Yeah, I'm on an XRAY SP and then I'll be moving to ITC for some sundae 😊
I'm no millionaire myself. Just got into crypto this year. I just have an income level were it makes more sense to protect the majority of my investment. I do have a trading bag I use for risky plays, and did well. But that has nothing to do with ITC. ;)
How much Sundae swap tokens do you earn for staking ADA to a pool? Thanks. I joined ITC the day after Meld’s ISPO ended. Loving the passive staking rewards!
Yes, ITC3 is also eligible for the airdrop.
Does anyone know if I want to partake in the Sundaeswap token drop for ADA that it has to be ITC? Or could it be ITC3?
Nice! Which pool are you in? I was going to join one of the ITC pools, but decided on ATADA2 after looking through the list.
I'm staking with 'ITC2 as well
ITC2 stake pool. I’m pretty sure it’s nearly saturated and ITC3 is on the way. If you’re hodling ada for 5 years you’d be losing so much potential profit by not staking.
Thanks to some dubious speculation I guess I'll be getting some of these tokens, but I don't know that they're worth getting out of bed for. Thanks for all the info though, now I'll be able to say something intelligent about it if I ever book that Forbes interview. For those who don't get it Ben Cowen's ITC stake pool won one of the slots, which is where I first heard about this.
I connected my ledger to Yoroi and use ITC stake pool 2.
Into The Cryptoverse ITC & ITC2 stake pools.
I now want an entire series of clown related coins, RON for McDs, ITC for IT from Stephen King CAR for lots of little clowns hiding in one vehicle 🤣🤣
I use Yoroi for Ada and stake with ITC Stakepool. It’s pretty simple to do and APR is around 4.9%.
ITC "iota of China"...well I guess everything regarding iota is not great invest
Around 5% I think via ITC (into the crypto verse) pool run by Ben Cowan staked using Yoroi wallet direct so I know it's being used to secure the network. Don't trust that binance arnt loaning out for shorts etc.
ITC into the crypto verse. Ben Cowan's one if you know who he is from YouTube. Pretty well respected and he's has multi servers running and treating it like a business.
Have a look at staking direct. It's very cheap to move Ada off binance to Yoroi wallet and can they stake as part of a pool..I'm using ITC which is Ben Cowan's one. Not sure how APY compares.
Yesterday i was checking my ada in yoroi wallet..i used ITC pool for staking...but it show block as 0..when i staked my ada in aug 25,it was producing block.. Can anyone explain me what's happening?
If not staking already, do it and get that interest. It's pretty easy . ITC is a good pool run by Ben Cowen .
I stake with Yori and went with Benjamin Cowen's ITC pool...j
Do you guys also stake your Ada with ITC? It's me saying thank you to Benjamin for amazing content on YouTube.
Hey...thank you for suggesting this..i choosed ITC pool.!!
ITC. Into the crypto verse. Ben Cowens pool.
ITC should do a discussion with Charles Hoskinson!
Not Infront of computer so can't check but I stuck mine in Ben Cowens one. ITC. He's a good lad so can't imagine he set it up taking the p### with fees.
I use ITC and ITC2 - because Benjamin Cowen
I quite like ITC’s logo..
I’m currently in the ITC pool, Ben Cowens
I use the Yoroi ADA wallet and stake it with Ben Cowen’s ITC stake pool
XtraBytes (XBY) - king of "patent soon". Oyster Pearl (PRL) - main founder rug pulled, rest of the team forked and rebranded to Opacity (OPCT) and it is still alive. IOT chain (ITC) - team vanished, probably in prison... Qash (QASH) - main founders vanished... dead token. Modum (MOD) - unfulfilled promises, rug pull? Bounty0x (BNTY) - is this still alive? Deep brain chain (DBC) - dead. Honorable mentions: these are still alive Icon (ICX) district0x (DNT) Request Network (REQ)
ITC. Bought the 4th dip. Still down lol
I might pull my ADA out of the ITC staking pool and stake with BitBoy instead. BitBoy is the truth
ALGO is SUPER easy to stake. Download the Algorand Wallet and you will stake automatically once your coins are in the wallet. I use Daedulus (check spelling) for ADA staking. Also super easy. Send coins to your wallet and then you'll have to pick a staking pool to stake your coins with. I chose ITC because Ben Cowen is King.
ITC and HEX are amazing projects that will become the top 2 coins in market cap by the end of the year
I have my Ada on Yoroi with ITC stakepool
"Bull markets make you money; bear markets make you rich" - BC, ITC.
He promotes a cardano staking pool ITC2 but that’s not bad. He got me to stake my own cardano so I appreciate his encouragement.
Its a lot to explain in words ehat it all means so your better off watching a quick video honestly. There's plenty that are very straight forward. I recommend you delegate into the ITC2 pool its Benjamin's cowens pool
If you guys like the content make sure you subscribe to the channel, give the video a thumbs up, and also check out the telegram channel, which you can find a link to in the description below. Remember to go earn interest on your ADA by staking with the ITC2 stake pool. Let's jump in. Fucking so goddamn tired of hearing the same 20 seconds of bullshit at the beginning and end of his videos.
Nice tokenomics for the system, also has whale and dump protection. Get your seat before $ITC goes public. $ITC has future on it.
