You can believe whatever you like in regards to the extent to which you believe anyone controls bitcoin, or they would like to create the impression that they control it and/or they would like to try to control it... and also you can figure out how much to invest into bitcoin based on your own presumptions that may or may not be correct and have fun staying poor if you are failing/refusing to recognize the paradigm changing nature of bitcoin and at the same time wanting to plug it into known categories so you can come to simple and lame-ass explanations in regards to what you believe bitcoin to be, how it got to where it is and where you believe it might be going.

options.. gaps.. leverage..


pfft

just hodl works for me but what do i know lol

I would yell at both... but I am too old for this shit.

Fairly recently, you were largely making the same ad hominem arguments that Core folks have been making, in terms of proclaiming that normies don't deserve to comment on some of these topics if they are not "smart" enough or they are not "technical" enough to be able to participate on the "technical" level.. which is not a very strong position when it comes to something like bitcoin.

There is a lot of leverage that gets liquidated if we fall back to $112K and that is also where the CME gap is...  So I think it is safe to say we need to dip and remove those leveraged longs before the next leg up...  Hopefully a massive leg up to short squeeze everyone at $125K.  

With Polymarket now showing a 53% chance that we hit $130K by the end of the year and being found to be 95% accurate a month out...  One last rally to a new ATH seems more likely than not at this point.
