BTC

pack_merrr

You're right for the most part. But that doesn't mean it isn't real or valueless. I don't know how you're using the word "intrinsic" but it doesn't really matter to me. It's primary role now is as a hedge against currency debasement, which is similar but different to a hedge against the stock market. Whether BTC or any crypto will continue to be used in that way remains to be seen.

Shitcoins or something real (BTC or ETH)?

On "DTE is controllable", here is a controlled test of that exact variable. Different market, so treat it as an analogy rather than a transfer. Same entry rules, same structures, two holding horizons, crypto options. 754 trades, six matched pairs. The longer hold won in six of six. BTC 7-day straddle: 48h hold, n=16, +$2,583, 25% win rate. 166h hold, n=22, +$14,608, 45%. ETH 2-day skew structure: 24h, n=28, -$2,778, 14%. 47h, n=40, +$2,250, 32%. ETH 1-day ATM straddle: 24h, n=10, +$688, 20%. 48h, n=10, +$2,142, 40%. The why is the useful part. Bid/ask on these runs about 5% of premium on the weeklies and about 10% on the 1-2 day structures, and inside a pair it is nearly identical on both arms. The toll is fixed; what changes is how much time the position gets to produce a move bigger than the toll. On the short arm the dominant recorded cause of loss is that toll, not being wrong on direction. Caveats: buckets are small, n=10 to 40 per arm; everything here is long premium; and the sample window skews to one regime. It does not carry over to short-premium trades, where time runs the other way.

MSTR will do great once STRC starts putting more BTC on the balance sheet increasing their BTC Amplification into the next bull. But maybe you all aren't aware of ASST (Strive) it is a leaner / smaller BTC Treasury with common ATM and their preferred SATA that has been growing their BTC holdings about 5% per week. https://preview.redd.it/bzlxl3m9k0oh1.png?width=1007&format=png&auto=webp&s=f44f11264f908d538b094b9c6f31f4be111f84b5

Yup, been buying calls since $100, probably up 2000%+ just off this BTC pump, this could be insane week if we get near $160 - BTC holds above $82k

GrokM14232

A weaker dollar doesn’t automatically mean US equities lose in real terms, since S&P 500 firms earn a substantial share of revenue abroad and foreign earnings translate back at a better rate. If you want a cleaner hedge, something like 20% VXUS, 5% short-duration TIPS, and 5% gold is more defensible than making a giant binary bet on dollar collapse; keep BTC sized where a 60% drawdown won’t change your life. Fwiw, the bigger portfolio issue is $65K sitting in checking, so at minimum move near-term cash into Treasury bills or a government money-market fund while you decide. The dollar can weaken on the margin without losing its reserve role, especially if the ECB or BoJ is easing at the same time as the Fed.

2028 is the next halving. Every halving has been followed by a strong BTC increase and MSTR will profit from it. I agree with you thesis.

Merouxsis

Obviously I am not an analysist, but to answer that question from what I can see while the stock market is doing good, the stock market isn't the economy. Yes tech companies are at or near all time highs, but the entire economy can not be sustained by the TOP 10. On top of that as well, American household debt is at an all time high, along with student loan defaults, and over 50% of America is paycheck to paycheck. Record numbers of small business closures. On top of that as well the president has openly threatened the bureau of labor statistics, and it's very likely the numbers we're getting aren't accurate. On top of that as well I see with my own eyes, and online the sentiment in people my age and younger, the inability to hit traditional financial milestones, own a house, start families, and invest. All of this on my eyes does not fare well for the American economy, and puts us in a powderkeg state. So in regards to my sentiment, the stock market and large companies are doing great, but that doesn't translate to what truly drives the American economy: The people. And from my POV (again, not an analysist) this facade is being held together by economic duck tape and glue, and can only hold for so long. ====== In regard to your second comment, I'm very in the middle about the future of BTC, which is why I have a very small investment into it as more speculation than anything else. Gold I am very confudent in as a long term asset, I just can't physically hold any. I'll look into gold stacks

mistletoe9

What exactly is the motivation for this sentiment?  The US economy is not perfect, sure, but is clearly outperforming other major world countries. USD has not changed much, in fact it's gained over the past year or so against other currencies. US bond yields are high, sure, but have risen even faster in other countries (EU, Japan). If general distrust in fiat is what you have, then I think gold and BTC is what you seek, but how effective they are as an investment is another question entirely

@Grayscale please turn HZEN into ETF please please we beg you, we love HZEN we LOVE $ZEN . ZEN is a GREAT AMERICAN CRYPTOCURRENCY, with US VETERAN FOUNDER Robert Viglione Still running Horizen Labs to this day as CEO. And furthermore I would like to ask honorable Mr Donald J Trump Jr. @DonaldJTrumpJr to invest more into ZEN because this is only the beginning. Compared to anonymous BTC founder, our US VETERAN founder and CEO is 1000times more credible and reliable! Also honorable Mr Marco Rubio please ensure Robert Viglione is protected he is a national treasure and will lead us to victory in AMERICAN CRYPTO with actual use cases (privacy, verifiability, and zero knowledge proofs). Also you can stake your $ZEN for great returns aroun 7-8% right now directly using $ZEN STAKING system

I had a couple of hundred BTC when it was at $10 and frittered it away. No point distressing yourself about hypotheticals where you somehow had the foresight to make exactly the right play, history is literally littered from examples with any number of tech companies in the last couple of decades alone.

Magicdonvito

I own \~3k shares of $UUUU at about $4.40 per share. I’ve been buying $UUUU for years and it was painfully dead for 2-3 years before the pop But I have not sold any and don’t plan to. I believe overtime it will become a major player in rare earths (although I originally was buying for the uranium and still like that story that’s been overshadowed). Commodity cycles are long and painful. I remember when I was just starting speculating in 2014 gold was crashing and I bought a basket of gold stocks. They kept falling and I kept buying. Then by 2017 I was -40% and missed the BTC spike But I kept holding and buying $500 every month and still haven’t sold. Finally it has paid off. The point is, still long (but not buying) $UUUU and in the long run it should do well if management can execute. PS - been buying an unhealthy amount of $IVPAF for copper/zinc/palladium exposure

PralineWinter4566

Alot of people are quick to call you a gambler. You had a parabolic rise which can happen in options. I had a buddy that i taught options, he ended up buying leaps in Nvidia way back when, and the rest is history. But his strategy was to always buy leaps and he never deviated from it. I'm super interested in what trades took you out (if you want to share)? Because once you have capital, you can always average down leaps (or use a ratio spread) to eventually get out. Its hard to believe everything you chose was a looser. Unless you were literally gambling with options expiring within days/weeks and also going all in. For me, I love a little gambling with stuff expiring in a couple days and these are no more than 1% of my portfolio. Otherwise its always leaps. I never buy actual stock. But that's just me. I had a friend who we gave some money to that was day trading BTC on Margin. Had he just bought and not looked at it, he would've 5x'd and looked like a hero, instead he blew up the account trying to call daily moves. If it were me, I would trust in that you had what it took to 15x your account originally. You just lacked the discipline to keep it probably from a lack of experience of how to re-structure when trades move against you. Learn and practice this on a smaller scale and trust that you can do it. Most successful entrepreneurs have lost everything multiple times and built it back up. You can do it.

dvh1988

Hi mate, dont worry too much, investing is like that and myself and tonnes of professional investors are having one of the toughest years risk wise. A few important things 1. Instantly forgive yourself losing money, the best LT lose around 45-47% of bets, the only loss is not learning, dwelling on the past hurts your ability to bet and size appropriately in the future. 2. Try and add money to core positions over time- which reduces overall timing volatility, and try to size your bets well use stuff like the kelly criterion (but maybe like half or one third- its a bit gimmicky sorry ; ), and take risk off when you make some money from time to time, or reallocate. 3. Try and hedge a bit either with some less risky bets, or some core holdings be it equities, ETFs or whatever, some diversification is your friend. 100k is a nice amount, dwelling on what could have been is a toxic thought, just try to not have money in mind outside just grinding out steady returns, if you keep investing it will take care of itself. I sold 100s of BTC for $50 and every now and again I joke about it, but I take it to mean I can somehow learn from that and find some similar trades (but let em run) , you should look at it the same. Look ar Federers commencement speech, thats a good way to look at investing into losing, you will come out stronger I promise.

In 2016, BTC was promised to change banking forever. Fiat currency won't exist etc. None of that ever happened. It just became another meme stock propped up by deplorable people. What happened to the other cryptos and NFTs? Are you in 2026?

Because there are many more people like you buying the latest scam but they got in late. BTC is also up massively but that doesn't make it not a scam. You just got lucky and now think you're some hot shit. For a supposed millionaire, you should get a life.

Powerful_Quarter691

This is a casino Bruder, maybe try seraching for a[ fire sub for Germany](https://www.reddit.com/r/fireGermany/). All jokes aside given that the investment horizion is quite short, I would advise that you look into MMF (money market funds). Alternatively portion of that EUR 8000 could be invested into BTC over course of few months aka DCA. Otherwise just check the potential tax implications for capital gains tax for when you plan to sell (in Slovenia we get a reduced rate after 5 years and after 15 years no tax, while crypto gains are not taxed (with the exception if you daily trade since that is considered as (what I believe in Germany is called Gewerbeausübung).

_Clit-Commander_

For me it’s the trades I didn’t have conviction on, which is all of them. Literally. I started trading in 2017 or maybe even 2016 I don’t even remember. Anyway, I never had much money but I should’ve just bought and held stocks. I had PLTR sub $9 basis, HOOD sub $15 basis, I had ALAB at $69 cost basis. I sold BTC for a loss when it crashed from $7k to $2k and never looked back until Doge came out in Robinhood. I had hundred of thousands of Doge, but I sold for a loss when they were about .0004 cents or something like that. When it started pumping I said to myself fuck that scam as I watched it climb to .75 cents. I had TSLA at $420 basis 3 splits ago. And I had SPY that I had literally said “I’m done with options” that was Feb 2019 I had a fat tax return and dumped it all into SPY. Then COVID took 30% of it and I of course sold at the bottom before the most epic recovery in the history of the market. Still don’t own any shares of anything. Been all options and I’m still down but I’m still here. I ain’t hear no bell.

Joohansson

Not a trade but was a moment I will never forget related to money. I had X bitcoins on a hardware wallet saved for many years, so I think this was maybe around 2017. Not worth that much back then but was all the money I had basically. One day I opened up the PC wallet connected to it and it said 0 BTC. In a few seconds I got this extremely unpleasant chill from feet up along the spine like my blood has left the body. Hard to describe but it was the first and last time I have ever had that extreme feeling of panic, helplessness, stupidity and anxiety. Thought I had been hacked and robbed. Turned out the wallet had changed the way the address is derived from the passphrase. So I only had to press a button import the address again and the whole balance was instantly restored. However took me a minute or so to realize. That was maybe the worst minute of my life. Since then I'm watching over my funds with extreme care. Never again.

BTC is not anonymous, expensive from an environmental POV, has no way of calculating it's intrinsic value because it doesn't generate revenue, and is not a hedge against the stock market. Other than that I guess it's fine.

greytoc

None of the people you mentioned are economists - they are primarily investment managers. They are going to invest a portfolio based on what they believe will attract capital to their funds. Assets like BTC are largely speculative and have little proven intrinsic underlying value. The same can potentially be said about gold's value except that such commodity assets like gold have been used as a currency for a few thousand years.

__redruM

There’s a whole subreddit for this that makes a lot of option plays. Honestly, nothing, I buy ETFs for the most part and hold long term. I’ve never sold for a loss. I did swing trade BTC years ago, but just held a losing position until it wasn’t anymore. Sometimes that was an hour, some times a couple months. And I learned that just holding always made more money than trading.

LOL BTC bers literally shaking

_Doomer_Wojack_

My AI bot platform says LULU is fucked: What I can tell you is this. The structural map I have for LULU shows the floor cluster between $115.61 and $118.77. That zone has been tested 11 to 13 times. It has blown straight through every validated support level I have on the map. Every single one. There's no structural memory below $115. That means the tape is in free fall into uncharted territory and the next real question is where capitulation exhaustion shows up, not where support is, because support is gone. An EPS guide of $0.93 to $0.98 against a $2.40 consensus isn't a miss. That's a confession. That's management telling you the business is structurally different than what the street modeled. Those don't recover in a week. They take quarters to rebuild trust. If $99 is real the thesis for catching this falling knife requires BTC-style patience. You're not buying a dip. You're buying a restructuring story with no floor yet confirmed. What kills any long thesis here is if next quarter they guide down again. Second guidance cut is where longs give up entirely. I'd want to see a full session of stabilization with volume drying up before touching it.

pwnedbypontz

Pray BTC keeps gaining and hope everybody buys FIP

LionRivr

Idk if my answer helps define it as an “investment vehicle” in your definition, but I consider it a long-term savings vehicle, similar to how gold is viewed. I personally consider that an “investment”. But you do you. BTC is a relatively new asset class. Legally recognized as a legitimate asset. It’s not an equity. It’s “digital commodity”. As everyone already knows, it’s highly volatile in the short term, but has always trended upwards on a time horizon longer than 4+ years. It’s traded 24/7, globally. Does not generate income, no CEO, no earnings reports. No 3rd party is “technically” needed, though exchanges and ETF’s for it do exist. Highly speculative and its success is dependent on the expansion of global money supply, national/international regulatory risk, and possibly quantum computing. But when countries and wallstreet are taking it seriously and building around it, you don’t ignore it. You question whether this thing is a legitimate “investment vehicle”. Don’t bet the farm on it. But some exposure to it doesn’t help. Only invest what you’re willing to lose, and always be open to criticsm.

carnecomarrozagulha

I see in the comments you're about my age. It fucking sucks that you lost that much money but don't let it take your investing enthusiasm away. You have ~$2000 a month to put away for investments! To me, Bitcoin is still a great opportunity, specially when I still see a lot of people shitting on it. You don't have to be 100% crypto or 100% stocks. This is not an either/or situation. For context I have ~15% in BTC. If it grows way over the setpoint (over 20%), I rebalance to stocks; this way I always buy the most relatively undervalued asset, and capture the volatility and growth without letting it ever be the majority of my portfolio.

LionRivr

All non-BTC Crypto is garbage. They’re all either failed/failing startups, or outright scams. S&P500 and Nasdaq barely outpace long term monetary debasement. You took risks that paid off. But you had low level of discipline to understand what you profited. And you had a high level of hopes/dreams for your crypto “investments”. I’ve also been in the space since 2017 and had similar levels of volatility as you. Just not as high as you got. (Swings from $10k to $150k down to $30k etc. etc.) Luckily, I still kept getting market exposure in my 401k and ROTH IRA, but I also now DCA bitcoin for the long term.

In hindsight it looks good but I think a lot of people in crypto and in general lack discipline and would have tried to swing trade stocks too, or panic sold, bought hi sold low etc etc. if you'd consistently invested and hedled BTC for 10years you'd be sitting alright too with similar numbers

Yeah I have picked up on this pattern as well. I’m sure $IREN is kinda in its own lane now that it made the AI data center pivot $MSTR definitely the highest 1:1 leverage on $BTC by itself

autodraftimus_prime

I've been following this and others and tracking against BTC as well as SPY and QQQ. COIN seems to follow BTC almost perfectly and MSTR has a bit of a different path but it's close. MARA does something just a little different than MSTR and then CLSK follows behind but tends to be more affected by QQQ and tech trends. I thought I had IREN all figured out but that tends to do whatever it feels like Over the past year, CLSK and IREN have had the biggest swings comparatively. I put them all on a screen together and compare. The annoying part with BTC taking a run is that everyone is paying attention to MSTR now and the options have become more expensive. None of them have shown any real obvious connections or lags or anything of use, but I'll be honest in that I haven't dug into it too much. Worth doing your own study, though.
