I would pray it will fall so the weak hands will panic and gives more opportunity to buy at the dip. it should not be new to us, we have seen this many times, and bullish can't just last for a long period of time, we are lucky to still see a good price now but I have a feeling soon it will really dip and might even all below $20k which was the ATH before this bull run.

I may look bearish now, but that's me, that's what I see in the current situation, we can't blame people for panicking when their favorite star (Elon) slowly fading his interest in bitcoin.

Well there’s difference in online and real life of course but I don’t know why specially here on bitcointalk why I feel it more exclusive. May be people like to follow Satoshi footsteps? Why so much secrecy? It’s ok I understand in start it was unclear.. Bitcoin was shrouded in mysteries and everyone thought Bitcoin is a darkweb money. But now things have changed... we have passed that long back now Bitcoin isn’t a thing to be scared any more. In fact now it’s a thing of a pride. The older and richer you are in Bitcoin you got more respect.

We can see this on other platforms too people have came out and are advocating Bitcoin openly. I think because of Bitcoin you don’t need to hide your identity any more. I’m not sure when things will change on Bitcointalk or will never change who knows.

This is my personal thinking of course you guys can disagree and I accept that. There are pros and cons of being anonymous here on “bitcointalk” and list of pros will be longer

More downside is more obvious because it's guaranteed.

Well there is 80x leverage, and then there is 8x leverage.

There is also leveraging up and there is leveraging down.

Leverage scares this kitty cat, even if it were to employ some kind of tactical use of a stop loss.. ... yet I understand if employed judiciously, there could be some quite profitable hits that outweigh the various numerous previous losses (or future losses after such leverage advocate might get cocky after having had profited stupendously after a mistaken 80x leveraged profit.. not referring to any peep in particular regarding this hypothetical).

Secondly, I personally think you are coming off as a dick calling people "old fools".

Have you thought about the possibility that there are some folks here in the age group you are insulting who have possibly outmaneuvered you in their investments?

India basically walking on a tightrope and keeps changing its mind, next thing you know they're going to ban bitcoin again and swing with the price on a see-saw.
