TSLA

HopiumTrump

Bitcoin is better than TSLA!!

cryptoripto123

Of course, but let's be real: none of you even got in on mediocre gains whether its TSLA, AAPL, or even the lowly S&P500. The issue isn't that you didn't win the lottery but that you had zero concept of personal finances.

sgrinavi

That would be nice, but we've all seen equities with plenty of institutional support tumble down 50% in a couple of months. TSLA is a great example

Obvireal

I’ve got IBIT MSTR MSTU SMLR MARA NAKA ASST CEP FAAS TSLA CORZ CLSK CRCL TZUP and some FLD. Hahahaha😈 Treasuries for the win🚀

Obsidianram

Can you really expect great results when you're relying on software engineers and such to do your sales & marketing? Does AAPL, IBM, TSLA or GOOGL do this? It also doesn't help when your focus is on stupid shit like "planting trees", "digital IDs for school kids in Africa" or getting in bed with the devil - oooos, I mean, the UN. Some projects just kill-off themselves with misguided decision making and warped ideology...

superminingbros

$70B for now, could go up, could go down. TSLA is a volatile stock.

HSuke

This is the future of stock investments From now on, for every $3 invested into TSLA, Tesla will buy $1 worth of US manufactured cars.

IndustrialPuppetTwo

I don't think anything at this point is going to help TSLA, not even a new CEO.

theonly764hero

It’s wild. I remember when Elon smoked weed on Rogan and the TSLA stock drops made headline news. That was child’s play compared to the past several months.

Glum-Temporary7426

Trump and his sidekick are pretending to feud to drop the price of TSLA before his robotaxi company launches on the 12th. I say buy

ZackZeysto

I love to short TSLA. Im right there with you

coomzee

I love it when people lose money on TSLA.

ZackZeysto

I would not exactly call them grown up men. More like two egoistic childish loosers with too much power and publicity crying over each other. And that is somehow tanking the markets. But probably the -14% TSLA stock that triggered other people to sell a bunch of assets because they got margin called.

kale_boriak

Bitcoin is a risk asset with close correlation to TSLA - short covering.

Hick6262

Yea seems crazy but look at TSLA stock lmao

OriginalFluff

TSLA One way or another it’s a much bigger oppy than BTC in the immediate 1-7 days

urbangoose

I'm pretty neutral on this At one hand, I don't want too much regulation overhead and I do believe the better projects will survive in the end. I know Ethereum has been shat on the past 4 years by the community, but it's 'surviving'. It's done better than 99% of other coins since the 2021 peak. It's just Bitcoin has far surpassed any other coin these 4 past years. And on the other hand, if people want to gamble and lose money, they will do it (and let them do it) - crypto or not. Current trend tells me that it's more than crypto. The likes of DraftKing and Polymarket becoming enormous is because retail traders are willing to play the game. And, even if you take away the meme coins, DraftKing, and Polymarket, etc., there's still TSLA, GME, AMC, and even SPY 0DTE options. Yea, pump fun theatrics is crazy. But coins come and go. Some reach the moon before they go, some don't. I was looking back at top 10 coins of 2016 the other day. Dash, Maid, Xem, Steem.. were all considered the 'best crypto projects' that year. I doubt anyone prior to Covid even heard of those coins.. No, they weren't meme coins but the bad apples, it's all the same. They come and go.

OxfordKnot

>we're not talking about the fundamentals of price based on a simple offer vs. demand equation Of course. That's the whole point of OTC or other "off the books" trades. Though IIRC, Saylor said he was buying his initial MSTR stake at some constant rate (like every minute) over several months (so kinda in the market?) To your point of the OTC desks - this is where things are a little bit different than in a stock market (say TSLA or AAPL) - I am of the mind that 21 million (well, 20M right now) is a relatively small number to work with. There aren't a bazillion places to get new coins from (yes, they can load up on a derp news dip, etc.) to refill their coffers and meet the demand of multiple large buys over a short time. If I am correct, that inability to wait months to refill + lack of places to go to fill in the first place = pressure outside of the OTC, spilling into the retail market and then...number go up. Now I don't know how long the lag between "OTC got hit hard" and "OTC tries to refill" and "OTC has to make bold moves because demand is now" and "hey look magic 8-ball, retail is getting OTC pressure" is, but I don't think it is years and i do think it is, at absolute most, months.

PoisonWaffle3

It's good to see that I'm not the only crazy person who did this, and it's good to see that it went well for you! I did basically the same towards the end of 2022: $50k in balance transfers (0% 18 months, 3% upfront fee) to buy BTC, crypto miner stocks, TSLA, META, and PLTR. I sold quite a bit and reinvested elsewhere after a while, but I still have a full BTC and change. I've paid off all but about $10k of the cards (did another balance transfer last year), and the current value of what remains is about $250k. I'm hoping to hit a total value of $350-400k by the end of this bull run, basically all free money.

NeighborhoodFair5468

Get outta mutual funds, weight heavier btc and microstrategy, and invest in disruption TSLA and NVDA. Solana and sui if you want more crypto exposure, but maybe wait until bear market before you get into those.

realheadphonecandy

I’m personally getting out of real estate and selling off collectibles. Currently 25% BTC but will end at 50% BTC, 25% TSLA, 5% cash, 20% collectibles. The only lifelines to me look like BTC and TSLA.

KiNg-MaK3R

Guess that's true, I always forget about TSLA.

InvoluntarySoul

TSLA only goes up

HankScorpio2020

Looking backwards is pain. I bought $30k of TSLA when it went public. I sold it a few weeks later for $2k gains.

dhddydh645hggsj

TSLA I think

imade100ktrading

Don't even ask me about TSLA

urbangoose

>the larger the market the lower the proportion of degenerative gambling TSLA and S&P 0DTE have entered the chat

True_Day3466

I am using Robinhood for TTWO and TSLA and VOO, but using Cash App for BTC, is that good, or should I just use Robinhood as well for BTC?

Fun-Sundae4060

TSLA share ownership for the past 6 years (but transferred just 3 years ago) and TSLQ holding for about 1 month from late January. On one day 2 months ago I printed over $100k literally overnight and then another $100k holding through the trading day on TSLQ

Wildren77

MSTR, ABTC, CES, KDLY, 3350(Metaplanet), KULR, SMLR, STRV, TSLA, the possibilities will soon be endless.

urbangoose

r/investing knows how to make make 1 way. take a company, perform valuation, if low=buy, if high=sell there are a million ways to make money, and moreover hedge yourself as well. but Warren Buffett, their god, preaches things like value investing and P/E ratio (which is fine). in the game of investing, stocks are just a small part of the picture. overall, stocks are fundamentally different to buying a commodity like bitcoin. they also don't like investing in gold, so no surprise bitcoin + tech = not-with-a-10-foot-pole. there's some argument to be had about over-zealous bitcoin influencers (and worse, crypto in general) that give crypto a bad image as well. i agree to a certain extent. but, with that point, i'd argue the GME, TSLA, AMC, BBBY crowd can be just as toxic, but they still invest in them.

moonRekt

Totally. Bitcoin has no earnings. But then you look at traditional investments like TSLA—they do have earnings that are completely out of whack with their valuation and make zero financial sense investing in except for the same “number go up—greater fool theory” etc that they always accuse bitcoin of. At least Bitcoin doesn’t need to justify its earnings

AstroRoverToday

I think you’ve just discovered the Theory of Relativity 😱. Nothing goes up or down. Everything is measured “relative” to something else. If you jump up, did you move? Yes, relative to the Earth you went up. When people say BTC went up, they often skip mentioning what it moved relative to, like USD, or perhaps TSLA, or maybe some other currency, like EUR. If BTC went up by 10% relative to USD, but USD went down 10% relative to EUR, then BTC didn’t move at all, relative to EUR. So, in order for you to put a value on BTC you actually need to measure it relative to something else.

Fun-Sundae4060

Of course it’s possible. I made $2M on TSLA stock in 2 years while I was still attending college. Bitcoin has that potential as well. I think you overestimate how easily you can retire on just $1M though. When you’re young you need much more more capital to retire than someone who’s 55-65 because you’ll be alive longer.

Rich_Produce8986

She gave the target for TSLA of $2,600 by the year 2030. She is fucking stupid.

jasoncyke

She also said TSLA will go to 3k in few years. I mean the last 5 years of ARK performance is still in the fucking minus, she is literally worse than most retails.

moonRekt

She also just said TSLA to like $3,000 again too. She’s either stupid or betting on a heavily devalued dollar via inflation

Hot_Philosopher3199

No. TSLA, NVDA, PLTR. All disruptive technology like BTC. There are plenty of chances to diversify (a little) and still make great gains. All-in-one, no way Jose!

cryptoripto123

The issue is 99% of you are just chasing returns. But returns exist outside of Bitcoin. as I've said many times--why didn't you get rich off of NVDA? TSLA? AAPL? Countless other stocks? The other issue is 99% of you lack any basic understanding of personal finances. If it was that simple to get rich, everyone would've done it already. Yet most people here don't even get basic concepts like budgeting, savings, compounded returns, etc. Concepts like DCA only suddenly became a thing as they learned about Bitcoin but they never DCA-ed at all into 401ks or IRAs. Do yourself a favor and learn about personal finance before you just talk about chasing returns. Because let's face it. You all already mostly failed given you missed out on easy 100,000x returns. At this point an additional 100,000x return is extremely unlikely.

Fun-Sundae4060

Why would trading BTC not be a good idea? Volatile assets create lots of opportunity to generate entries and exits to gain high returns. Time in the market beats timing the market for majority of people… but I’ve beaten the market for the past 6-7 years by a huge margin via swing trading TSLA. TSLA and BTC are of similar volatility and TSLA outperforms BTC at certain times, but I plan to include BTC in my portfolio more in the future.

Fun-Sundae4060

I don’t own BTC directly. I own leveraged exposure to it meaning I profit when BTC goes up more than the amount BTC goes up. Same in losses if it goes down. This is not a position I can hold for an indefinite amount of time, I’m pretty much required to exit for risk management. While I’m bullish on BTC and things like TSLA, there are times to own the assets and times to sell. You make WAY more timing the cycles so long as you are correct. Not just in fiat terms, you can own more BTC just by exiting and coming back in cheaper.

Fun-Sundae4060

I made 120% last year on TSLA stock alone and 30% YTD on TSLQ. I’m riding BTC right now with about $1.1M worth of exposure for the next few months. Everything is a tradable asset with their own risk and reward profiles.

ItIsRaf

Well a lot of people are bagging the short term raises on MSTR, TSLA and BTC

Petursinn

Ye sure, TSLA is doing great, and they will never sell their Bitcoins, gotcha....

fanzakh

If I can borrow on TSLA, I can borrow on BTC. It all depends on the margin requirement. And I'm not saying this will happen right now cause no bank does this. But if BTC becomes a treasury asset, it will act just like gold or treasuries.

Sabast-

As a seasoned 25+ year investor, I would tweak this a bit: - Pay of all debts first - unless you have an essentially free interest rate like 3%, and a comfortably manageable monthly payment. But pay extra to get the princapal down faster. - Put 20% into a super safe, liquid cash-equivalent instrument (eg savings account), until you build up enough to cover 6 months of normal living expenses. - Then drop it down to 10% and keep going until you have a year's worth, and keep going. Dip into it for after that for emergencies or big purchases, but never go below an identified 1 year of expenses, and try to keep growing it. - I would stay away specifically from XRP and SOL. I don't know why those have been doing well, but then again I don't know why TSLA hasn't crashed. People are stupid, and the market is dumb and irrational. Yes, they have been working to facilitate cross-border payments. But there is nothing intrinsic to either that allows that, just agreements that any crypto foundation can - and will - make, so not a real, unique, lasting competitive advantage. High TPS is good, but comes at a serious cost to the other two anchors in the Crypto Trilemma. The real and serious problem is that both of those lack the very two things that most crypo is great at: transparency and decentralization. SOL specifically has had *outages* in the past. That is totally unacceptable for something that should be trustless and decentralized. That it hopefully may never happen again, is irrelevant. That it ever happened at all, is a HUGE red flag. You might do well by getting in - just be sure to get out at the very next overheated market, just in case. I sure as hell am not touching either with a ten-foot pole. - BTC and ETH are always solid bets. I don't understand why BTC is beating literally anything - all it is, is "the first", and has name recognition for boomers telling their brokers "I want in on this crypto thing". That's it. Plus this delusion that it's "digital gold". So for that, it's probably not going anywhere for a while, and will probably continue to outpace everything else for years to come. Possibly even 10x'ing again before you know it, inexplicably, against all reason and logic. - Can't go wrong with other solid alts with fully open and transparent architectures, governance structures, and validators - like Cardano and Algorand. Hedera uses a new tech and is well-organized, very open and non-sus - but seems a little overhyped at the moment (unlike say underdog Algorand).

Friendly-Profit-8590

Totally agree but she got TSLA right. Though, I suppose, if she hadn’t we never would’ve heard of her.

ObiWanKokobi

Please buy $TSLA!

Huge_Supermarket9418

True. I’ve made more money this year on RKLB, KULR, IONQ, OKLO TSLA and NVDA. In the stock market than in crypto

the_bueg

In my imperfect estimation, Monero has had the most stable price action in recent years. That, along with better TPS and lower tx fees that BTC - not to mention the privacy and fungibility of cash - a WAY better "currency" than BTC. I've written at length in a few other comments the last couple of days why BTC is the absolute worst "currency" of all crypto, but other comments basically encapsulate it. Monero still has an energy problem though. Not a month's worth of average US household electricity for each transaction like BTC, but it's still inefficient PoW, and with higher adoption, would attract even more miners. (I mine it myself but 100% solar and for a reason unrelated to profit. I still lose money.) Algorand is a highly underrated coin, near-free, about 1 second settlement, has USDC, time-and-battle-tested, and outstanding open governance and concentration-resistance. Cardano attributes *almost* as good, but no stablecoin yet. (And for investors, not undervalued.) XRP and SOL are too centralized and opaque for my tastes, and grossly overvalued IMO. Hedera seems promising but currently price action is too hyped (good for me bad for a currency). Needs more time, and a stablecoin. But none of that probably matters. Certainly not some rando's analysis, no matter how sober. If TSLA can take off after that earnings announcement, nothing really matters. Although we already kinda knew that in our heart of hearts didn't we - with BTC being the winningest coin going for no good reason other than being the first, and its name recognition by boomers who know absolutely nothing about crypto and just want to be able to call their broker and say, "get me in this 'crypto' thing!".

the_bueg

It's so irrational. BTC's value is not as a "currency", but as "digital gold" as they say. A "finite store of value". Which to me sounds like copium, and has no defensible basis in reality. At the end of the day, IMO, it's just a speculative asset, plain and simple. Don't get me wrong, I've been in BTC for almost ten years - and slowly bought more through every major downturn - and it's done very well for me. So I'm not complaining, but I don't get it. It's not just irrational, it's moronic IMO. XRP and SOL are very high throughput and solving some problems like cross-border payments, but both are too opaque and centralized IMO, and SOL has had actual outages - an absolute non-starter in my book. I don't know how anyone can accept that, even as a historical blip. No distributed P2P crypto network should *ever* have an "outage". But again - the market is not rational, so what I would think should matter, is utterly irrelevant. Why has TSLA been going *up* after last earnings call? Up is down, and red is pineapple quarterback. Hedera sound really intriguing to me. I (and apparently only I) think of it as "Gen 3" crypto. I think of Algorand and Cardano are "Gen 2+", and ETH on Proof-of-Stake is "Gen 2". ETH on Proof-of-Work was "Gen 1+" in my mind (supporting smart contracts but still crazy power requirements), Bitcoin is "Gen 1 proof-of-concept". The first. Works about as well as a toddler eating glue. Monero is solidly and [I'd argue] the best of Gen 1: still PoW and no smart contracts - but low tx costs, faster than bitcoin - and as private and fungible as cash. I myself am mostly in Bitcoin, but betting heavily on Hedera and Algorand. ALGO is a total underdog, overlooked, underappreciated, and IMO grossly undervalued. What it has going for is is essentially free and instant transactions - among the quickest going - excellent governance and decentralization model, USDC is available on the chain, and the foundation is apparently making deals left and right with governments and other organizations. To do what, exactly, I don't quite remember [and/or never bothered looking into it more] - but the chain could certainly be used as the basis for one or more government-sponsored digital currencies for better or worse. (Better for ALGO, for sure.) But again, fundamentals and logic really don't seem to mean shit. Just throw a dart at the friggin wall.

cyger

I actually sold a little BTC to buy TSLA a couple days ago under $230 as TSLA was severely oversold.

coinfeeds-bot

tldr; Tesla (TSLA) announced that it did not sell any of its $1 billion Bitcoin holdings in Q1 2025, according to its latest earnings report. The company's Bitcoin holdings are currently valued at approximately $1.05 billion, with an unrealized gain of over $500 million. Tesla last made a significant Bitcoin transaction in Q3 2024, transferring $760 million worth of Bitcoin assets. Despite market volatility, Tesla continues to hold its Bitcoin investment, which has positively impacted its finances. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.

KiNg-MaK3R

Agreed with the sentiment in most of these comments. You cannot compare what could have been. I bought TSLA shares at $14, and if I held them and sold them at the absolute top, I would have made $2+ million dollars. But in those 10 years I ended up buying a house, having 2 kids, and hey, bought some bitcoin too. I ended up selling those shares for $22 and at the time, was pretty happy with that trade. You can't think about what could have been. You made a great trade and now live in a house with a wife that you seem to like, don't ruin the good life you seem to have. Comparison is the thief of joy. Move on, take your wife out to an expensive dinner and say sorry and move on.

cryptoripto123

Why does it matter? Your goal in life is to make enough to provide for yourself, your family, and have some leftover to enjoy. If you haven't been investing in stocks your whole life and suddenly think you'll get rich quick off of Bitcoin... lol joke's on you. Bitcoin already 10,000x-ed. Where were you? NVDA and TSLA 20xed in the past few years. Where were you?

SirMustache007

Ok but do you actually think that Bitcoin, with its massive scaling problems and huge energy demands is actually going to be the crypto asset central to the global financial revolution? The slow exchange times, huge fees, huge energy demands are technological anchors which are massive obstacles that will prevent Bitcoin from achieving actual pragmatic value, even if I would want it to. I swear, BTC feels like TSLA right now in that it’s current valuation is based more on hopes and dreams than actual truth.

FireballAllNight

Eric Trump shilled ETH. It just so happened to peak on the same day as TSLA, Dec 17th, had what appeared to be standard market fluctuations, and has been downhill ever since "it's a great time to buy $ETH" It's been pumped and dumped and now it has has no future. Farewell to one of the last respective alt coins. This is why we regulate.

cryptoripto123

Such posts are just cringe. You're right Bitcoin has shot up miraculously in value from 2009 to 2025 even accounting for all the ups and downs. You'd be filthy rich. But why are we all here? Is it because we invested in 2009 and are laughing from our billionaire yachts? No, it's because 99.999% of you are dirt poor and hoping that somehow Bitcoin will save your financial life. I can name countless other examples of assets that have mooned since 2009. AAPL, TSLA, NVDA, GME, the rest of FAANG, etc are just a few to name. If you didnt' get rich off of Bitcoin, why didn't you get rich off of any of these other assets? I get it, you're all just pathetic failures hoping that somehow you pick the right assets for the next 50,000% return. We all want that, but maybe instead of relying on that as your only path to financial success, you can try working hard? For instance I graduated just before 2009 into the great recession. Yes, life sucked, but you know what, we had 15 years of a bull market since and economic growth that got better and better. Maybe 10 years ago in 2015 you could point at how life sucked and we were still recovering, but since everything has gotten better. My own income has 6x-ed since 2009. So even without Bitcoin or stonks, you should be able to climb yourself whether its career growth, income growth, etc.

Fre4k_on_E

Have you ever seen what happened to TSLY (TSLA income fund) over time? I get it, the income fund won't grow as much as the stock does, but the divergence is insane. [https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GoWwa2qWcAAxivm?format=jpg&name=large](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GoWwa2qWcAAxivm?format=jpg&name=large) This can also happen to MSTY.

Hitchie_Rawtin

Most people here (99%+) don't use crypto in any meaningful way - we saw the market flood a presidential memecoin with $25bn in volume within a day - they don't care about innovation in any way, they just want their bags pumped. People investing in vastly overpriced tech stocks act the same even though there are more easily parsable metrics that would indicate something like TSLA could drop another 75-80% and be considered a reasonable purchase with a sane P/E ratio. People become exuberant while buying into spiking & overspeculated assets and their feelings when prices crash down closer to their true value are the inverse of that exuberance.

cryptoripto123

Of course anyone can find a winning asset. But why aren't you rich already from Bitcoin? Why didn't you get rich off of NVDA? TSLA? AAPL? There are countless ways to get rich.

BQbaobao

TSLA going to zero before bitcoin. I said it first…?

WolfEither3948

Today yes, but historically it trades more like a hype tech stock — like TSLA. Generally, positively correlated with the market just more volatile. Yesterday it sold off and mirrored market performance. It’s evident that you have a good grasp of the fundamentals, but I’m a little shocked by how many other supporters have invested in it without a basic understanding. Which raises legitimate concerns on how it will actually behave. BTC shot up after trump won because he showed support and Biden was opposed it. - that makes sense Inflation was the primary issue for voters in 2024 election pushing gold on a historic run but BTC was down most of 2024 before shooting up on news of election results. 2025 BTC is down just like the DJIA, SP500, and Nasdaq. In theory it should hedge against inflation and the US market selloff, how it actually behaves in practice is a different thing altogether. Showing you can be right and ultimately still lose money. Be careful.

bodog9696

Why do crypto communities continually preach "HODL/DON'T SELL" to others invested in the same asset? If an individual chooses to HODL & "NOT SELL", that's the individual's prerogative. Why does any individual care what others opt to do with their assets?! In my experience, it's unique to cryptocurrency. I never see TSLA or AAPL shareholders concerned with how others manage their shares.

AromaticGust

I like the idea of this, but I remember hearing when states implemented the ability to pay your owed taxes with Cryptocurrency they were surprised when people didn't really use it much. I'm guessing something similar will happen here. Most of us are using crypto as a store of value and or investment and so just as I wouldn't buy a coffee by selling a bit of a share of TSLA I probably would never do this. Now, stablecoins, yes absolutely.

WolfEither3948

I think you have your answer. Unpopular opinion: If Bitcoin was everything supporters claim it to be. It would behave very differently. - As an alternative payment framework, it’s essentially a bet against US economy/financial system. As such, BTC performance should be negatively correlated to the market, instead it mirrors it. - Given inflation and recession fears we should’ve seen price appreciation similar to that of gold. This indicates that investors don’t actually see it as an inflationary hedge. - BTC trades like a tech stock because that’s how people actually view it. Generally speaking positively correlated to the broader market with more volatility like TSLA. I could totally be wrong, and for those who own it, I hope I am. That being said, my points are still valid, and hopefully I’ve introduced enough uncertainty to make you rethink your decision and save half of your 401k.

dont feel bad TSLA is down 33% since Jan 20, BTC is only down 18%

Well it seems like the stock market has brushed off the tariff fears.. companies like TSLA are ripping even with negative economic outlook and sentiment. And yet crypto markets are flat. Why?

Inner-Yams

Im confused...he requested shares reward to incentivize TSLA to stop dumping. 3 days later it hit a bull run. There was no drop between those dates that was more volatile than the last week prior to the request.

GabeDef

Yeah! Only down from $4k in December 2024! Not bad! Better than TSLA!

SUPAH_ACE

As for vocabulary words and what they mean, investopedia is a great resource. YouTube is another great resource for general information as well. Just be careful on YouTube as learning all kinds of different things can actually hinder your progress as a trader. Too much information, especially information retaining to different things in the market can be bad and confusing. Start with a general topic and research subjects within that topic. Also every YouTuber can put out good or bad information. It’s up to you to decide what to do with that information. For example. Swing trading. Look at how to swing trade and how it works. Then how are you going to swing trade? Whether that will be buying stock shares, option contracts, or futures or forex. Then, what are you going to trade? Is that SPY, Apple, NVDA, or TSLA? Then ask yourself how are you going to do it? What is your strategy to swing trade that stock? The last question is most likely the hardest thing to do. A strategy brings everything you’ve learned onto the charts. Learning and practicing a strategy you will use to trade live will make it or break it. You can come up with your own or use someone else’s. Not every strategy will work. It’s different for each trader. 100% win rates is nearly impossible. Also, read up or research on risk management and emotions during trading. Those two factors are some of the biggest factors people forget. Risk management is important so you don’t loose all your money in one trade. Emotions are important as they can lead you to revenge trade or oversize your position. One more thing, use trading view to look at charts and do technical analysis. Stocks react to technical analysis 90% of the times. This includes trends and key levels. Very similar, if not the same as DEX screener and works in the same way, just better features.

cryptoripto123

And? Bitcoin only has that potential if it actually replaces world finance, and it won't. Go invest into Bitcoin. You should, and everyone should. But it should be a part of your asset allocation. Don't forget to contribute to your 401k/IRAs. I'm going to bet you didn't contribute to those steadily for 14 years because if you did, you'd see how massive your balance would be today. My 401k 14 years ago was $40k. Today it's over $500k. Could it have been $50 million if it were Bitcoin? But if it were that easy why didn't everyone else do it? That's why you cant' be greedy. If you think it's so easy to find a 1000x increasing asset, then why didn't you get rich off of NVDA, TSLA, AAPL, AMZN, CSCO, MSFT, etc.? Oh that's right. It's easier said than done.

ThatInternetGuy

SOL wants to get halved in price like TSLA too. Halved in a month!

Jesse_Livermore

I remain skeptical about this really being a guy (vs ai), about this really being an ex-Salomon trader, about this guy currently being at a hedge fund who loaded up with TSLA stock going into this quarter, and generally about all CT predictions that come true. But having said that, I've never in my almost 30 years of investment world expertise (and 11 crypto) seen anything like this before. And now having said that, let us not ignore the fact that he also gave 2 other dates, 2 other dates which didn't mean shit, in his same Tweet. But still, to nail a call like that to the penny and time is outright amazing.

There are now millions of people, globally, waiting for Wall Street to pull another GME or TSLA. Please god. I hope to fuck they do this. Unfortunately, Wall Street is now under a microscope by retail investors for short attacks and other fuckery, so doubt it will happen. Sad.

It’s hard to predict and as you say consensus will likely not hold up. 120k should be easily doable, double that less likely. I do expect a bit of a crash but probably not the 80% as in the past. I’d hate to sell all and not get in cheaper so will likely hold some LT as I have since last bull. *mostly (50%) in MSTR but want to rotate more into TSLA as I think it will outperform BTC next 7 years+.

Personally, I fundamentally believe that Ripples holdings should be calculated in marketcap. I believe FDV is fully realized. So by my belief it already is. Just like Jeff Bezos stock in Amazon, Elon TSLA etc. being counted. I was also around back in the day. CMC doesn't view it that way specifically being anti Ripple. They've done a lot of sketchy with their XRP reporting as well. Such as misreporting prices, excluding volumes of certain exchanges or countries like South Korea. But also to answer your question: Firstly, I love Eth and hold a lot of Eth. But I do believe XRP will pass it again in MC the way most people think about it, yes. For quite a few reasons.

You don't lose if you don't sell 💯. So stocks retraced 10% which is healthy except TSLA which Elon is getting hammered for his actions and some wave. Crypto... well when the President's friends rug the degens retail runs scared with their heads in their hands. Some news could send this exploding (is a huge reload moment) so if you haven't bought any of dippity dip I would. Not financial advise

Final_Winter7524

Yeah. And TSLA to the moon! 🤦‍♂️

UrbanAlaska

At least TSLA is up after turning the White House lawn into an advertisement. Right???

Cats_Are_Not_Real

Yes, if you bought shares of AAPL and TSLA.

Of course not, puts on TSLA

Here is my answer: will your $9000 USD be worth $9000 USD in 10 years if you keep it in a bank account? It will still be the same number but the inflation will give it less spending power. Will your $9000 worth of gold be worth $9000 in 10 years & can you sell it for that much? (most gold exchanges give you 85% of the value.) Or you can trade gold etf and have nothing physical and your wealth on the stock market. Which stock or ETF should you buy? Which work of art should you buy? Which property should you buy? Or do you just HODL this .1 bitcoin & keep stacking it? My personal success with bitcoin may not reflect on yours but: gold: costs money to keep secure. You live in fear someone can steal it. You may have bought fake gold bars wrapped in real gold. Realestate: costs me overhead money for upkeep, lost rent, poor renters, poor behavior of neighbors, risk of damage or random big expenses. Art: could be stolen, damaged, lose popularity. Cash: can be destroyed or stolen. Taxed away, inflation devalues it. Bank savings account: devaluing. Fractional banking means my money does not even exist. Investments on the stock market/ ETFs: victim of whims, manipulation, destruction of value or long long term stagnation. Ask the TSLA share owners how that worked out for them right now! All my examples have a possibility of growth but no guarantee.

My dude, if you invested in TSLA while it was hitting its ATH on no positive catalyst other than Trump hype, you make poor investment decisions.

RIP TSLA, Trump's buying a tesla

This is of course true, we can all see what’s happening with TSLA in the news. But that doesn’t change the broader point, macro conditions are driving a massive sell-off across multiple sectors. It’s not just Tesla; major tech and growth stocks are taking hits, and Bitcoin is holding up far better than it historically would in similar conditions. The market is adjusting, but Bitcoin’s resilience in the face of all this is what stands out in the scope of this subreddit.

Well you seem new to this market, and quite frustrated about something else maybe. I've been holding since 2016-2017 and have lived through these cycles and sharing meaningful experience. Yes, Apple has been stagnant in their monthly chart. But what it proves is that you are the cherry picker given that among TSLA, AMZN, NVDA, META & AAPL there is only one outlier and you picked it...

jwz9904

TSLA -15%, it's expensive to be around mr trump

Rent_South

You want a monthly timeframe ? Even better ! TSLA is down almost 40% in the past month. NVDA is down 20% in the past month. Meta almost 20% down in the past month. These are some of the Highest companies in the world by marketcap. The point is, you don't compare Bitcoin to SPY overall, you compare it to tech stocks. And in past cycles, bitcoin movement has been much much much more volatile and violent in times of crisis. For having lived it. This feels very very mild, and is a clear sign that it is becoming so much more resilient. Almost 80K usd , at a 17% fear and greed index ? The potential upside is insane.

Rent_South

MAN. Are people even aware that GOOGLE, NVDIA, META etc are down 5-6% TODAY ? Or that TSLA is down 13% today ? 4% down for bitcoin is a nothing burger.

PaleInTexas

>Guess largest S&P corporations You just cherry-picked a single company.. S&P has not dropped like TSLA.

Cilree

The TSLA dump is not exactly only Trump's fault though. People don't want to support a nazi.

jwz9904

yeah, the stocks market are shit too. Look at TSLA and nvidia

going-AWOL

comments like this smell like "bag holder" and get ppl rekt...to all the noobs, buy when ppl post they will kill themselfs or bet on fake hamster races "on the blockchain" because they need to gamble...look at tradfin are you shure $TSLA and $NVIDA are gonna save us one more time? ...to not be too pesimistic some dinocoins looking good and could make new highs even if btc underperformes, but what do i know🥲

Rent_South

Yes its incredible that some stocks like.TSLA have suffered more than bitcoin on a 6 months chart lmao. 

RollingMeteors

>You're betting that your assets will appreciate in value at a higher rate than the interest rate on your debt. E.g., you own $100,000 of bitcoin and use it to borrow $20,000 (since you have to overcollateralise your loan) at 8% interest. Over five years, you pay roughly $1,600 in interest per year, and $20,000 back at the end. So you have to pay back $29,386 in total. Sounds like what kekius is doing with TSLA... ¿Except didn't he just loose more money than B. Gates ***entire net worth*** ??? ¿What happens when your $100,000 of XYZ that was used to borrow $20,000 is now instead worth $50,000 or $25,000? It's a bet, like you said. ¿What happens when you bet it all on black and it lands on red? ¿Pretty shitty tax penalty is ensured I'd imagine?

1. All cryptos are fundamentally the same. Same technology, capitalised by the same players and traded by the same sort of people for the same reason using the same tools, on the same platforms. Crypto traders are about as diverse as a KKK meet and greet. 2. The crypto market and particular US stocks are \*highly\* correlated. 3. Stock prices are being jolted by US events. None more so than TSLA, though NVDA, also popular among the crypto bros, is also struggling to fend off accusations of irrelevance as the AI hype cycle moves from 'the peak of inflated expectations' to the 'trough of disillusionment'. 4. As these particular stocks with questionable valuations sink, crypto is also sinking as people are forced to liquidate crypto positions to meet calls to try and cover their over-leveraged positions. 5. Adjacent to 4, Trump's establishment of crypto reserves is absurd, and the market knows it. A small group of thieves has seized control of a bottomless purse and they have form for financial crime and price manipulation. In fact, he established his own coin which he named after himself for a successful rug pull. Therefore the crypto reserve is not seen by traders as a good thing, particularly those outside of the US where sentiment has turned sharply negative. 6. Because of the above, liquidity for trading is drying up. Liquidity for capitalising the coins is also drying up as the big money watches the storm roll in. 7. Market makers are moving defensively against TSLA anticipating a failure. While it looks like it's going to jump if it doesn't do it soon they'll just shove it off the window ledge anyway as that's where the profit is. In summary, people can concoct all of the implausible bullshit they want to explain crypto prices but fundamentally it's always been pinned to real assets. Always was. And now those assets are going bye-bye.

The question you need to ask is whether or not you're in a bubble. It's looked to me for a while that there's a bit of a tech stock / crypto cult that's attractive to certain types of people that trade very aggressively to try and get rich. This has led to this significantly sized group of people in a particular country, weaponised by online crypto and share platforms, borrowing to buy overleveraged positions on crypto and tech stocks - particularly TSLA and NVDA. While it's arguably difficult to put a price on crypto currencies, it's relatively much easier to work out what stocks are really worth at a point in time. The difficulty facing the market I think is that TSLA has a supernormally optimistic p/e but is facing a massive backlash from institutional stockholders, its own customers and the public. This is reflected in the falling stock price. As a result, a lot of crypto investors are being forced to liquidate their positions to address margin calls on their stock positions or just failing out. There's definitely a lot of money going over the event horizon, but there's still some optimism/blind hope/whatever which is why the stock prices are falling down stairs instead of off a cliff. For now. However, as the stock falls, p/e rations also fall and even a strong p/e on the s&p500 gives TSLA a target price of about $60. This would be a systemic issue for US stocks and financial institutions. Also, sadly, with the prospect of an ongoing and likely expanding war in Europe, and the US deciding to sit this one out, military-related Euro stocks are climbing sharply (possible creating another bubble, at the expense of the aforementioned stocks). Trump's involvement is also degrading cryptos because in the market's eyes as it's clearly an open attempt at price manipulation by a small group that has now seized control of a bottomless money pot so even people that aren't being forced to sell are heading for the exits. Most serious investors have always viewed crypto with grave suspicion and this latest move just validates those concerns. Bottom line; if it is a crash I'd expect the downward momentum to accelerate into next week. If you can afford to get out then you should seriously think about that. Unfortunately, if the verdict is that we really are in a bubble then it's bigger than anything in modern history so there's probably not much you can do anyway.
