What did the blowoff top feel like in 2017? what was the front page like every day? Was everyone scared as fuck that this was the actual top? or was everyone clueless and just thinking it was going to go forever?

Conversely, what happened after the bungee off the mountain? was there heaps of cope threads trying to justify losing 6-7 figures in potential gains?

I guess my first question is, was there any thought in your mind (easy for me to say in hindsight) that it was just the end for this specific cycle, and that there would eventually be a new cycle in the future?

because xrp is peak normie, you should be concerned when your dad starts asking you about ETH killers or >anon, what's this defi thing?

Until normies start asking about yield farming their oracles and roasties are posting timestamped photos of them sitting in front of binance with their foodcoins, the top isn't in yet.

Fed reserve 1 week ago publishing about defi, grayscale valuing ethereum etc. Personally I'm waiting for the defi bubble like the ico bubble before I consider the top to be in. Also the global macroeconomic situation is fucked beyond repair, visa+mastercard opening up their networks, paypal crypto barely started, etc.

A bit of both in my case, but more biased towards the latter. There were warning signs like Charlie Lee (and Vitalik? can't remember) selling and Katy Perry's nails. It seemed like it was getting too wild and that was enough for me to sell 10-15%. I still convinced myself it would keep going up and that 2018 would be the "year of the altcoin".

This time I'll be taking significant profits if it feels euphoric and won't let any bullish narratives (it's just the beginning, bitcoin ETF coming, mass adoption, etc.) change my mind no matter how convincing it seems.

Extreme bearish case scenario for bitcoin. Bitcoin peaks at about $150,000 around late summer / early fall and finishes between 20-40k, forming a gravestone doji candle on a 12 month chart. That will be massively powerful bear candle. It'll probably be the end of bitcoin. Thoughts?

i feel like this is happening too

big investment funds are now trading crypto. i noticed that theres an inverse relationship with crypto and stocks. when stocks rise, crypto falls, when crypto rises, stocks fall.

i'm speculating that, these big funds are taking their profits from stocks and moving it into crypto, riding that up, taking profit from crypto then throwing it back into stocks. rinse and repeat for infinite money.

i think its gonna be different this time around maybe. we're not going to see huge corrections anymore, the big funds are in a way "normalizing" the swings to their benefit and to prevent crazy pump n dumps on them.

both my boomerstocks and my crypto have been performing quite nicely. although the boomerstocks are boring af and just slowly crab up due to inflation (prices rise at the point where the money is injected into the economy. corps and banks get usd injections, stock prices inflate.)

I can tell you there were very few people calling it the top. The whole point of mania is that it feels like a new paradigm and that they will never go down again.

To put it simply, mania and the top of the bubble feels like the absolute worst time to sell in history. It will feel like you’re throwing money away selling when it’s going up so fast and getting so much attention.

The other thing to remember is that mania has to make such a massive impact that there has to follow a 2-3 year bear market. That means that by the end of the bubble, people have to feel sick to death of crypto and BTC. Can you imagine the current run causing anything like a multi year bear market? No, it has to be in everyone’s faces, on everyone lips and everyone has to get burned bad before the whole bull collapses. When you feel like nobody would ever sell, that’s when you sell. Saying it is much easier than doing it though

Crypto is treated like risky and a speculative asset class. It's the technology sector on steroids. The more bullish the stock market is, the higher bitcoin price will go. They are highly correlated. The store of value narrative for bitcoin is bogus, and it will drop like a rock in economic uncertainty. Crypto is technology, and useful cryptos will be used to facilitate a new financial system.

It’s all fucked up now. We have corporate entities and wealthy people buying 100’s of millions worth of crypto. It’s different this time. I would be sure to keep a big chunk of your BTC in cold storage and just pretend like it doesn’t even exist.

Anon, that’s completely incorrect. As the price increases, the percentage increase price on buys/sells stays the same, meaning they increase too.

Person 1 wants to outbid to buy BTC at 1000 (fluctuating 999.95 - 1000.05) they can outbid with 1000.10

Person 2 wants to outbid to buy BTC at 100,000 (fluctuating between 99,995 - 100,005) they can outbid with 100,010.

Assuming both these people are first time investors starting with $500 worth, person 2 has moved the price of BTC 10x as much as person 1 with the same amount of money invested. It’s all about percentages at the end of the day, albeit this is slowly eroded as the price goes higher because there are more traders. In reality, it probably takes the same amount of money to move from 1k - 20k as it does to move from 20k - 100k. A guess, but it will be somewhere in between 39k and 400k because of these 2 factors

Bitcoin was at like 14k or something the last high before it crashed to 4k. Now it's almost 50k. Will it crash again? Definitely but not as far as it did before and itll come back to a new high.

It's going to crash bro, that is an undoubted certainty. What I am trying to gather from all the old fags is how they felt previously in the same type of cycle.

We may get to 250k before it bogs.

But it may just get to 100, no one knows. We can only use indicators and public sentiment.

You might think you'll know when it will crash, but you won't. Nobody does, that's why it crashes

Michael Saylor said: "I prefer an unstable appreciation of 200%/year than a stable depreciation of 15-20%/year"

If it crashes, ride the ride, don't sell. In the long term, you'll be making a huge amount of money. If you're in for a short-term get-rich scheme, you'll end up poor

If you know what you know now, wouldn't you want to go back in time and buy BTC@$20k back in 2017? If you answer no to that question, you're the type that will most likely will lose money with crypto

Fucking ripple at all the pump,
They coordinated a massive shill on coindesk and btcmag to claim themselves as SWIFT liquidity provider,

XRP ate all the fucking liquidity, i wouldnt be surprised if the embezzled more than 10B$ worth of crypto through their pump and dump scam.
Fortunately, i had insider info on xrp top price and sold at 3.33$, from then on, BTC tanked and took everything down along with it.

I knew crypto is the future but it was too hard watching my coins go from $1400 to 100-200s and I eventually sold. There was no knowing when the market would ramp back up.

I would never have guessed crypto would pump hard again only after a worldwide pandemic (and extreme money printing).
