What was it like when everything started mooning last year, biz? Did alts or BTC shoot up first? Which alts were the early pumpers?

Can any vets (2+ years in crypto) chime in on the state of the market right now pls?

pessimism in crypto drives down prices of major coins then alts. optimism in crypto drives up prices of major coins the alts. when market is sideways a few alts decide to moon.

rarely do alts moon when btc is down and vice versa, this pattern is pretty consistent

when an alt moons, it usually finds a channel and continues to remain tied to BTC, just with a higher ratio. that's why it's a good idea to sell the top of an alt pump into BTC.

as for this market: could be a month, could be years before everything is green on the weekly. if you bought during the 2017 rally and don't need the money right now, just hold. the patience you learn (or don't learn) in crypto is invaluable. good luck anon.

Y-years anon? But wasn't the 2013 - 2016 dip just because of Mt. Gox?

Gox kicked it off, there were plenty of other contributors too though

just start accumulating. take the amount you're willing to invest, divide it by 10, and buy once a week for the next 10 weeks.

Usually there is a micro cap bubble after the bitcoin pop that extends 40% of the distance of said bitcoin bubble.

Btc went up thousands in minutes and I swing traded about 20k profit in 30 mins

i also wanna know if anyone actually held for most of the way to 20,000? or if you all sold early on.

>> No.8549334

Just but a bunch of money in BTC, ETH, and some of the top protocols. Set some sort of alert to email you when your portfolio hits $1,000,000. Then forget about it until the alert fires in around a year or two.

BTC went up and then sideways or down, during that time alts went up

BTC mooned above 12, and then shit started getting crazy. things started parabolically mooning...i think...Stellar was first....then shit just went off the rails. everything mooned at least 300%....i eyes Raiblocks AND Tron before they even began....even if I'd have dropped $2K in them and sold anywhere close to the peak, I'd have half a million+. .... i fucked up and didn't sell much at all, and didn't tether.

blergh. thanks for reminding me.
