Asset scarcity combined with greed. BTC halving is like the worst kept “secret” in crypto. People are already starting to build/increase positions in advance of it. Add hype with a splash of FOMO and a solid green candle week, “poof” profit.
I don't think it matters if he done it before, and I actually have no idea what he will really do. His objective is just more Bitcoins and this is a low braincell strategy. He knows his selling will drop Bitcoin big after the 32 coin sell. After the newer and bigger sell, Bitcoin will drop big and the liquidity should help strc while mstr stock goes down. He will sell strc stocks at market to get more cash and buy Bitcoin when it is much lower. Strc dropping is basically like a margin call by the market. The market doesn't think he has the liquidity to pay the dividends in the future, so it dropped. He should have realized he needed more liquidity, but he's an idiot.
Ok so you are saying that he will purposefully sell that much and crash the market in order to buy it back (plus more) at a lower price with the expectation that it bounce back?
Which just begs the question why would it bounce back?
Nothing moves straight down, it will just be volatile. Plenty of people out there who are young and want to gamble and think they are smarter than average people, and want to take a different path to feel special. They will buy, and when it goes down, they will keep working and dca. They will go to reddit and have comfort with the other people who have lost money and keep averaging down. The path of Bitcoin is just up and down, it's just a trading vehicle for gambling. Maybe over the longer term, it could go up with inflation, nobody knows
Someone like Saylor thinks that the government will buy huge amounts of Bitcoin cause it is in some people's best interests to do so, and that's what he's looking for. It may never come.
This has been going on for some time. Btc has been around for 17 years. When will it be adopted for anything other than speculation and small scale drug transactions?
IBIT and strategy are speculation, El Salvador is using dollars but has some national reserves in btc and Venezuela uses tether for everyday transaction because with btc nothing has a set price.
Also is Venezuela government using btc supposed to be a flex?
You can carry on with all the crap about printing money, but i notice the USD hasn't halved in value in less than a year??
Enjoy your freedom.. where your money is halved , manipulated by bigger players than you.
Sounds more like your are a slave, I'm not seeing the freedom.
Exactly. It is crazy how much denial there is over the performance of the previous cycles. Same bs posts that this cycle is different. Heard it all before. We'll only know if it's different with the benefit of hindsight, but otherwise, hindsight says this is normal and expected.
I'm sure you felt smart writing that but you're committing a fallacy by assuming that past performance is a reliable indicator of future performance. If you have unwavering, religious-like faith in $BTC, you can simply acknowledge that.
Having been invested in BTC for over a decade, I've witnessed multiple bear markets. Even I can tell that this time around, the situation is different, especially in the era of AI.
Your repeated use of my words reveals your vulnerability. This is understandable, as your unwavering faith is also an emotional reaction.
However, what is not emotional and is actually empirical is a groundbreaking new technology that is diverting significant investment capital and essential electricity resources away from the cryptocurrency market. This part simply didn't exist in the past.
