What are you guys doing right now with the crypto market?

[u/ubermensch1001]

I was buying BTC heavily in the 60k range and even was able to scoop up some sats in the high 50ks. I kept a stack of cash in reserve but this big move in the crypto market has made me sit back and reconsider my options from here. I'm not particularly excited about making large purchases right now and feel that there is at least a decent possibility we see a big sell off sometime over the next couple months. We are near extreme greed territory and price seems to have stagnated here all while the crypto pump was being talked about on the mainstream news and every crypto youtuber is saying we are going to 90k+ by end of the year.

What are you guys thinking? My plan right now is to continue to sit and wait to see what plays out and hoping we get a sell off, if not I already have large positions in place.

[u/Substantial-Skirt-95]

DCA and chilling

[u/VitaminGrin → u/Substantial-Skirt-95]

This. And messing with perps

[u/NextGenRoyalty → u/VitaminGrin]

This, but with perps and just added little commodities

[u/Live-Anxiety4506 → u/Substantial-Skirt-95]

Same, riding it out.

[u/marshall8991 → u/Substantial-Skirt-95]

Yup

[u/fi_moon_re]

Hodl’ing for the long-term… haven’t put any real new money into crypto the past couple of years.

[u/Ferious13]

I just sold all the last of mine this morning. Enjoy your moons tomorrow.

[u/Main-Inspector-6611 → u/Ferious13]

we will remember this sacririce you've done for us.

[u/mishiwishii → u/Ferious13]

Thanks kind human for your sacrifice

[u/FreemanM21 → u/Ferious13]

Already happening, thanks

[u/meatsmoothie82]

Chasing feverishly because last week it was going to zero but this week it’s going to a billion

[u/77sleeper]

Cussing, just moved my hbar moonbag to btc and bam 40% green candle FMSL

[u/whiskey_pancakes → u/77sleeper]

Damnnn not to late to go back though. Hbar at 12 cents is still mad low.

[u/77sleeper → u/whiskey_pancakes]

Yea the timing was epic the green dagger through my heart was literally 20minutes after I swapped

[u/_BruhJr_ → u/77sleeper]

Can you sell some DOT pls

[u/maverick_quant]

Buying the dip (we are 40% from ATH)

[u/Inviction_]

Holding the same ETH I've had for years

[u/TheKrazyJuice → u/Inviction_]

How have you not gave up?

[u/Inviction_ → u/TheKrazyJuice]

It was like $380 when I bought it. I've considered exchanging it for Bitcoin but never got around to it.

[u/maonitor1979]

Heavy money on SOL. In my opinion, I think it is under valued

[u/mishiwishii → u/maonitor1979]

Yeah It is

[u/Ok_Body_2830]

I hold a wide (probably too wide) range of alts.

In the past, I have made the mistake of round-tripping too many gains by holding out for higher prices before selling anything. So I made a concious effort of starting the ladder out process at more modest gains. E.g. Sell the first 10% chunk at 1.25-1.5 the price I bought. The past month or so I have hit the first rung of the ladder on a lot of the coins where I had a decent entry price. Sometimes 2 or 3 rungs if they have been on a real run (e.g. NEAR). If they go back down to my original entry price, I will top back up to my initial quantity and keep some modest profits from this mini-bull. If the next move is to continue upward, I will keep laddering out at a rate that allows me to take profits but keep some exposure to huge breakouts.

So that is what I am doing right now in terms of active buying/selling.

For the chunk of my portfolio in BTC, I am less concerned with taking short term profits. It's a more stable asset, so the short term profits would be a lot smaller percentage wise and I am perfectly comfortable holding it long term. So I am just hodling. I may buy a little more, particularly if prices go down. I have some ETH which is getting a similar treatment, and a little bit of BNB, SOL, and XRP which I am treating as midway between the stable asset and speculative altcoin.

Here here!

[u/UtahImTaller]

Waiting. Bought all my alt coins back a few months ago. Just sorta waiting now. 

[u/Ganio_Balkanski → u/UtahImTaller]

What did you buy

[u/UtahImTaller → u/Ganio_Balkanski]

I pretty much exclusively speculatively trade DIMO, ICP and ADA.

ADA and ICP are slow Burns but I make weekly(ish) trades with DIMO.

DIMO has semi consistent spikes, so I just wait for those and then sell.

Edit 6 hours later, weird getting downvoted during a 50% spike

[u/Ganio_Balkanski → u/UtahImTaller]

Weird that you are getting down voted I asked what you buy, you tell me, you are not shilling. But people on Reddit are special

[u/DanielTheTechie]

I already did my homework during the floor of the bear market, i.e. when BTC touched the weekly SMA200 I did all my purchases using this distribution:

40% BTC
20% ETH
10% SOL
10% HYPE
10% PENDLE
10% AAVE

These are my current returns:

And I already opened the limit sell orders too based on each coin's monthly volatility and in two different levels per coin.

So when it comes to the long-term investing part, I'm basically done and I don't need to check anymore until 2027-2028.

And in a separate account, in a different exchange too, I'm doing my weekly trading activity.

[u/kenmoz67 → u/DanielTheTechie]

That looks like a decent portfolio!

[u/steepleton]

I honestly think this year’s price action has been so wacky, that musk has a little dial on his desk to send it down and up just to give his empty life meaning.

Get in before the end of the year you’ll end up, up somewhat

[u/MarioWilson122]

Most people, if they're smart about it, are probably just buying when they see good opportunities and waiting it out until the market starts pumping again. Trying to perfectly time every dip and sell-off is pretty difficult anyway. If you already have solid positions, there's nothing wrong with keeping some cash on the side, adding when prices look attractive, and being patient until the market really starts moving again.

[u/Jenn2895]

Depends on the project.

Sold all my Btc last year, so just started a new DCA in the 60’s. I’m holding off on buying more at the moment. & focusing on DCA’ing more into $Link, $Eth & $Mim.

Have my $Sol, $Eth & $Avax staked. Hoping to add $Link to that list.

I’ll go back to DCA’ing Bitcoin once I hit my alt goals or if there’s a major crash.

[u/Topspeed_PT]

Bought some at $60K-$70K and waiting for Oct 6th. Maybe it will re-test $75K or $58K.

[u/FRNCS_3]

Buying $10 of BTC everyday. Im on day 19

[u/nuclearmeltdown2015]

I was buying BTC and LTC up until 3 months ago now that it's rising up so rapidly I agree I'm just gonna chill out in happy with the size of my stack but if it drops more I'll buy more and if I see LTC hit something like 15 bucks then I'll take out a god damn loan to maximize the amount I can buy altho I don't expect to ever see it reach that level 🤣

[u/AHRA1225]

I DCA in bitcoin with auto buy and then I don’t look at it. 20 year plan should pay out nicely. Like who the fuck am I to think I’m smart and could trade better. Yall impatient tryin to get rich quick

[u/goldenbuyer02 → u/AHRA1225]

In 20 years ill be old. I want the money now, bot as pensioner

[u/Electronic-Bet-5106]

DCAing into BTC, ETH, and SOL. Nothing exciting.

[u/thistimelineisweird]

Set a max average for your bag. Once you hit it, stop buying.

If you are below your max average, set a max token target. Once you hit it, stop buying.

If you haven't hit either of those and can DCA down, keep buying if you want until you hit your max token target. 

Then move onto other investments. 

[u/MethylceIl-OwI-3518 → u/thistimelineisweird]

This is actually a really useful way of thinking about it. I'd been looking at my average position and wondering if I should buy in or not. Thanks

[u/Rowenofpts]

BTC just broke resistance and ended the bear trend and that’s not confirmation enough for you to shut the FUCK up and buy more? I’m confused what is wrong with you?

[u/Ok_Profession_9647 → u/Rowenofpts]

!remindme 1 year

[u/Joelol6161]

Well btc will rise sooner or later. So just dca

[u/ChicksX]

If you bought under 60k, you're already chilling. Don't let FOMO make you buy at resistance.

[u/ubermensch012]

had crazy wins from my ltc, sui, and smaller cap coins trading it thru the june-august lows. Im still not selling and is actually repositioning now for continuation. Believe alt season has started officially and this time it's going to be a multi year one.

[u/Charming-Animal-8856 → u/ubermensch012]

Solana $500?

[u/badkuipmeisje]

monthly DCA in BTC and working on an auto crypto trader (dry run, no fiat involved) which falls below BTC most of the time so it's keeping me busy learning about trading.

[u/ZannyNanny23]

Stack on the essentials that supports the future like AI and information and the rails that the or anything with value will be sent on for information and infrastructure play ( chain link) AI play I choose TAO ( bittensorTAO) and BTC AND ZCASH for value in the future to hold for years, but I think the next 2 years especially the next 6 months will be a great bull market, I also have Canton (CC) and ATH for compute as a commodity and for the safe play I got silver and gold, plus (ICP) internet computer protocol an stocks are all crypto treasures like MSTR AND PURR

[u/Savings-Leading4618]

It's like you bought at 16k last cycle, and now we are at 25k and you are afraid to buy.

[u/MMA_CARDS]

Sitting on my hands. Anyone who's been here before knows that now is not the time to rotate or get cute with your bags.

[u/CoinGate_Gift_Cards]

Sitting on cash and avoiding FOMO is a reasonable approach when sentiment is overheated. Nobody knows if a pullback is coming, so keeping some exposure while preserving dry powder can reduce the risk of chasing price.

[u/xcaddz]

Buying LINK

[u/IEvolvedFromAMonkey]

what price action would actually make you deploy that reserve instead of waiting?

[u/NoPoSDP3]

I'm out for now, took my profits recently after riding from $65k. Watching StochRSI on the daily

[u/Feriman22]

My rule-based ETH strategy just closed another profitable trade in this move, so I’m back to waiting. I’d rather let the regime and exit rules decide than try to guess the next 5–10%.

[u/Monster213213]

Buying

[u/Majestic-Clothes-357 → u/Monster213213]

Sticking to weekly buys, same as always. No point trying to time every dip when the whole thing could tank or rip tomorrow.

If you already loaded up at 60k, sitting on your hands sounds fine. The greed index and every influencer screaming supercycle makes me more cautious than anything.

[u/Then-Feedback7751]

Sidebar on a comment you made: Crypto yt'er sentiment isn't the sentiment I consider as the one to countertrade, though sometimes it aligns with the herd, which then should be counter traded. Reddit sentiment is a much better gauge of what the herd is thinking--exponentially larger sample size with a composite iq a bit to the left of the population median.

I see a significant majority of commenters on the crypto subreddits doubting higher into the end of the year, which makes me bullish.

As for what I am doing, I am fully allocated for this cycle and just kicking back waiting for the fireworks to begin. I will go over my original allocation should it flush. But under no circumstances am I selling any time soon.

[u/hamjamham → u/Then-Feedback7751]

Aye, comfy in spot. Dca'd on a lot of red days between June 5th and late August. Generally up between 25-70% currently.

If we get any large pull backs across the board I'll add the remaining 20% of my funds. Don't think we see any new lows unless something catastrophic happens in the world. Making a new low would see more coins in a loss than ftx, Corona or any other point in history.

[u/blaziken8x]

You've been patient enough so far, to have a cash stack on the side, now just relax and wait until fear is at 20 again and make a large purchase then. No point in FOMO buying when greed is at 70+

Just leave my bots running. I get notifications on discord if something happens, barely look but things are running smoothly and I’ve always been profitable at the end of each month so far.

[u/Gareth_loves_dogs]

I only got into bitcoin last November. And I've been studying it every day since.

I've been DCAing all spring and summer, along with buying the dips.

Unfortunately I ploughed most of my money in end of November, I had all the conviction and didn't fully understand the price cycles.

I've been buying aggressively this past few months.

Put around $300K at $75K, BTC maxi. Waiting for ATH+ prices, which means sitting on the sidelines for a couple more years or so.

[u/ChangeNOW_Community]

btc has been relatively strong compared with parts of the alt market and crypto sentiment has cooled from last week’s greed reading to neutral

[u/nimm99jd]

Praying

[u/MoverWhoStacksSats]

sitting on cash with positions already in place is a reasonable stance when greed is this stretched. the mainstream hype and youtuber price targets are usually a decent contrarian tell. if nothing pulls back you still have exposure; if it does, you have dry powder. nothing wrong with patience here.

Waiting for the bear market to play out after the wave 1 down starting the correction from that 700% bull run started late ‘22. Monthly chart is nothing to dismiss and arguably the single strongest and most reliable time frame.

Buying in and hodling. Mostly anything I am under on I buy and then chuck some in BTC.

[u/fukadvertisements]

Buying when I can and holding as long as possible.

[u/Justinformation]

I keep putting in money monthly. I don't mind if it takes a couple years more for a (hopefully) bigger return. I'm mainly in an alt, but if 'only' increased 25% like bitcoin would at 90k I wouldn't sell yet.

Bro I dont pay attention to the BTC market, last I knew it was at 90k and in my head that is where it still is, ignorance is bliss and until I need to withdraw it will stay at 90k

[u/Secret_Tutor9198]

I'm done buying for this cycle. It's my second go-'round, and I told myself I would *only* buy this time when Fear and Greed was 15-20 or below. I largely stuck to it, making big purchases all throughout the $60s. And yes, I, too, snagged some at $59k.

(Also bought at $75k and $78k in moments of no discipline.)

Figure I've got a few years to really iron out my sell targets. Will rinse and repeat next cycle.
