It is very simple. If you want to hold Bitcoin for 10+ years, it is always a good time to buy BTC now. In a decade it won't matter if you bought at $6k $8k $10k etc.. Low time preference is the key here. But many people don't have that patience as they are just looking for some quick gaines and profits.

Bitmex und Deribit sind ebenfalls bisher noch ohne KYC.
Hier werden aber ausschließlich Futures und Optionen von Kryptowährungen gehandelt.

They can not bring BTC down. What they will do is continue talking it down to accumulate themselves as much as they can. The smart ones of the 1% who understand Bitcoin to a certain degree, know this is a train they can not stop.

That's just wishful thinking. 2023 I would already be happy to see $100k per Bitcoin.
Gosh I don't even expect Bitcoin to be worth a million dollars within the next 20 years to be honest.
So no $10mio until 2023 in completely nonsense!

Only the ones who do not understand Bitcoin and have a high time preference are panicking.
The ones who understand Bitcoin and have a low time preference will use this time to buy more.

Well TPTB are in a fucked up situation. In times of the internet where everyone can get the information he is looking for regarding Bitcoin and crypto, the effects of spreading FUD are becoming weaker and weaker. So it doesn't matter who holds coins. As soon as he knows what Bitcoin is about and has decided not to sell he has become a hardcore hodler.
Otherwise I could say the same about you. As long as you haven't sold your coins, Bitcoin will not move up. And that is totally bull shit! You know this.

Who is "we"? 
Furthermore the Winklevoss ETF was already rejected once and delayed by a second attempt with a highly chance of getting rejected again. Most of US expected that to happen. So yesterdays shake out was a good opportunity to buy the dip.
And as WE can see now we have already fully recovered.
Bitcoin's doing good and imo the bottom is in. We may swing for a while between 6.5k and 10k before finally breaking through $10k and move higher.

I'm not convinced yet. Just a small bounce imo. We are not out the woods yet.
We are still in the accumulation phase which could last much longer than many here expect.
So investors and hodlers and need more patience. For day traders this moves are always welcome as they are making money with those kind of volatility.

I totally agree. If you know when to short, even with small scalps and a decent position size, there's so much money you can make right now. The profits when shorting are coming much faster than going long. For a bear the actual is a blessing.
And I also agree that it is all about accumulating more and more Bitcoin. Crypto winter is the time where we have to do that. Then when the next bull run starts you can lay back and watch Bitcoin going moon.

Whatever the rank of a member here is I can assure you that nobody will be able to give you the right answer.
Short to mid term things are very unpredictable at the moment. We are making making many Bart and reverse Bart patterns.
So these are unexpected and very sharp up or down moves followed by some sideways action before another Bart move happens.
Long term (2-3 years from now) we will go up! We will go up a lot!!!

Thank you izanagi. I received my payment.
I will keep the signature until you let us know if the campaign continues or not.
Hope that's ok for you.

Sorry but the market couldn't be more predictable at the moment. There is still down pressure. We are in huge falling wedge. Which in general is a bullish pattern.
But before a breakout of that pattern happens, I think we will continue going down. So now Bitcoin is cheap. Therefore the smart people are buying, accumulating.
Only unexperienced retail investors and newb traders are selling here. Ladder your buys! Every time price goes down a bit, you buy!
The bigger the red candles, the more I am happy to buy. Because in 1-2 years this will pay off big!! Buy when others are fearful!
If you wanna be a successful trader and investor, then that is what you have to learn!

Depending on the rigs and the region some big miners are located, they are already mining at a loss.
In the last episode of the Bitcoin News Show a guy with the name Andrew form the company Hut8Mining said the average price for many miners to be profitable is in the 6000-7000 range. His company however, due to long term agreements, still has plenty of room. He said price could to $2000 until they start to mine at a loss.
So we are already in a tough price region already, from the point of view of many miners.

To be honest, you can not know if $6000 is the bottom, unless you own some awesome magic crystal ball.
I wouldn't be surprised if we see attempts to push the price down to 5k and below. Even if it should be just for a few hours.
I also could imagine to range in the 5k areal for a few months, as big guys and institutions would be dumb not to take advantage of this market right now and accumulate as much coins as possible. They all know that in less than 2 years the daily supply of new coins gets cut in half again. So now is the time the will buy and suppress the price as long as possible.

The crypto market is unpredictable. As whenever some news gets published prices go crazy up or down.
This is the reason why you use stop losses!! I see so many traders who think stop losses aren't that much useful. They are more afraid to get stopped out when they use one than losing their whole balance. This makes no sense at all.
Successful day trading needs a lot of time, focus and patience. Some guys can learn it in a few months to be profitable. Others need years to reach that level.
My advice. Don't look how good and quick others can learn it. Find your own pace, where you are comfortable with. And try to find your own style, instead of blindly copying other traders. If you hang in, you will see that at a certain suddenly it all makes sense and you get it. Then you know you're on the right path.

This is right. It's all about evolution and technological process. Before light bulbs and electricity people were using oil lamps.
Before cars people were using horse carriages. Only Studebaker saw the disruption coming and made a successful transformation from a horse carriage to a car producer.
And in the financial world, after a century of stagnation, crypto currencies are coming around the corner. Mainly Bitcoin, which will have a huge impact.
Regarding Bitcoin becoming obsolete, I think this is something generations after us may have to deal with, but not us.

Who is saying we will have a 3 year bear market? Or that bear markets last that long?
In another post you said that 6 months isn't enough for a bear market. I disagree. This has nothing to do with time. It's all about the charts, price, trend and trend reversals. Time is not of any significance here.
Regarding Tether, I don't care, because it's influence isn't that big as some here think it is.

As a long term Bitcoin investor I don't really care that much about short to mid term price targets to be honest.
Of course I check the price, because I am trading as well. But that's a different thing.
Regarding Bitcoin as an investment I have my eyes on the next halving. And after that the focus will be on the 2024 halving.
All the swings between each 4 years is mostly noise to me.

What you describe would be the Hyperbitcoinization event many Bitcoin believers are speaking about.
But 10 years is a pretty short amount of time for that to happen imo.
I mean guys like Trace Mayer are speaking about millions of dollars per Bitcoin as well.
However the time frame he is thinking about is several decades as far as I know.
So your call is pretty brave. But I like it and wouldn't complain if it happens. 

Yes handling their emotions is the biggest issue many traders or  retail investors have, especially at the beginning.
You can have read several books, know all the theory, but if can not be cool when it is needed you will very likely screw up your trade or investment.
That's the main reason why so many sell at the bottom or buy the top.
Often you have to do the exact opposite of what the majority is doing or thinking.
Buy when the majority of market participants is crying and sell when this majority is thinking about to get their first Lambos.
