I love waking up to a new ATH, these super pump years every four years gives me such a rush.
Too bad the coming year, with it's year long dump, will do the opposite, or will it?
I will try to sell the top-ish and park the money in stocks for the coming bear year, let's see if that can't give some kind of similar feeling, at least it will hopefully lessen the "down" feeling (if I pick the right stocks).
I'm thinking something stable and somewhat boring, like Ericson.

Don't worry, it's only for a year, then I'll be all in on bitcoin again, just parking my money to save it from the bear year.

dont see any kind of scenario where bitcoin goes seriously bearish while stocks rise, or even stay stable.

if stocks fall, then yes i could see btc fall, but thats about it.

the idea that stocks are going to be some kind of hedge wont cut it for me.

Then let me remind you of 2014 and 2018.
Bitcoin moves in roughly four year cycles governed by the roughly four year halvings. Next bear year will be 2022, probably starting late 2021.
This is totally uncoupled from the stockmarket.

so the presence of institutional investors (not present in 2014 and 2018), plus the fact that both stocks and btc have risen in parallel for the last 12 months, means nothing to you? ok, each to his own.

No, it doesn't mean anything to me, the institutional investors are still few and they are most likely hodlers so their holdings wont significantly impact the bear year, and the fact that we have risen in parallel lately is just a coincidence where stonk uppity indicators and bitcoin uppity indicators happen to appear in the same time frame, with some overlapping of course, but not enough to say that they are intertwined.
