RafPinto Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 I saw yesterday close to BITEC a publicity that from 15th MAY, there will be a Crypto Expo running for a few days. A lot of Thais, attracted to the "quickly" become rich hype have got their fingers burned. How often do I see them sitting in Starbucks or other locations, buying and selling crypto. Welcome back to earth and hopefully this annoying publicity from "Bitkub" will slow down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious what one's rationale is for why an entity conjured from thin air, with nothing backing it but the hope someone else catches the bug and becomes a cultist, should 'recover'? I ran a couple of trading desks on Wall Street. I would not have kept any staff member who held a position from $69,000 all the way down to Thursday's $26,000. If he tried to rationalize and say, "But I bought it at $1", I would have had Security escort him and his belongings from the building. Where one bought is of interest only to the taxman. If the trader thinks it matters, then that is ego, not trading nor investment. Markets love to crush ego. One should ALWAYS move stops in a winning trade. Because btc is volatile, maybe one could have moved a stop to $60,000 (pretty wide). Getting out of a position allows one to reassess without any emotionality. These cryptos were great for the mostly anonymous creators. They conjured something, got people like cathie woods or matt damon to hype them, then when retail became enamored of the latest get-rich-quick sure thing, the bid side filled in and the creators have been able to dump their holdings onto the masses. When a coin tumbles, the large holders then ramp it up again, rebuild the hype and dreams, and when the bid side fills in again with retail, hammer it yet again. Rinse and repeat. (one can forget for a minute the massive waste of energy 'mining' and transactions involve, though the planet and the price at the gas pump say this should NOT be forgotten) The draw of these things was the history and the rapid price movement higher. Now that a billion percent returns are not happening, the draw will fade. Retail will begin to look for the next Beanie Baby. If interest fades too much, the creators---who somehow are trusted as honorable even though no one knows who most are---will try to get whatever else they can from their holdings and butcher the thing....kind of like what is now the proverbial example of a pump and dump: Luna. "No matter how long it takes" I hope you are very young. Market peaks sometimes last for decades. In 1989 the Nikkei hit 38,915.87 on 28 Dec. 33 years later it isn't even in the 30Ks. When the Dow peaked in 1929, it wasn't until 1954 that it hit the same level again (nominal), and even that was a bit bogus, as companies in the index that went bust were replaced by new names. Silver and gold peaked in April 1980, and did not hit new highs for 31 years, despite their hyped "5000 year record of demand". Pets.com NEVER recovered, nor did Enron. Nor did Lehman Brothers. Not sure what the 'fundamentals' of btc are that could justify a 'recovery' to $69K. Good luck. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you following the crypto market 'closely'? (My son and his friends apparently lost a bunch of Baht & USD). Fortunately, although it's a lot to my son, he only lost around $2K, but his friends lost a lot more $20k+ (yes, USD). Sad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
