MISC Crypto Crew (MCC) Vol: XV: Getting Zucked into the Metaverse

[Bingo559]

does everyone here mostly think we are in the bull run already? if so, would 11/2023 be considered the rough start of it? i'm trying to estimate when the peak will be and figure out some exit date ranges.

i dont think i accumulated enough to make it, but maybe i can get some new toys and put more into tradfi stonks this time around. Still a more than slight possibility I fumble it but trying to prevent that.

It’s been a bull run since I called (and bought more) the 15k bottom. You’re already almost 2x’d late.

well i have been around since 2018. i bought the top when btc was around 15k in late 2017. then i kept adding on periodically till now. i would say I maybe made a 4-5x by the time we reached the peak in 2021. then i didnt sell. worse, i added more in early 2022.

So you think that the bull run started immediately after the November 2022 bottom? I always thought it was more of an accumulation, choppy/consolidate market. And I personally thought the bull run started late october of this year. and my belief is that the bull run goes for 8-12 months, but ALT season is only 4-6 months. that would make BTC top around July-October of next year. With peak alt szn in the summer

So I am targeting May/June of next year as a potential point of selling maybe 30-40%. And then selling another 30-40% end of summer, early fall. And hold around 25% as a long term hodl

People have their own definitions of bull/bear phases. I personally agree with Horse86 ^ that it makes sense to say we've been bull since the bottom (just as we were bear from the previous top to that bottom) because then it's just binary and you don't need to come up with other terms to describe in between phases and it's defined clearly by price action/reversals. BTC is up, what, 2.4x since the bottom? Sounds bullish to me.

However, some people would emphasise bullRUN to mean only the final few months of a bull cycle, maybe up to the final year at most. I would say that we can use terms like "mania phase" to describe this. In very casual conversation, though, I would still ask such questions as "wen bullrun" to basically mean what you do.

Happens, sir. I mark my ten year anniversary in crypto (thanks to the misc!) this month and each cycle you just **** up in different ways, kek.

In the end it's not meaningful to really pin down these terms onto the dates in question - the chart is the chart and that's what matters. There have been periods of chop and consolidation in the last year (e.g. November and December 2022, and other stretches like this summer) but overall 2023 has been really solid growth for BTC, it could hardly have been better for the first year after the bottom. Perhaps it's the "run" part of "bullrun" that's making you doubt whether it applies here. It's been bullish, at least, right? There are people ITT back to ATH already and loads of mega action in ****coins already. Aside from BTC's own strong performance.

It's exciting to think about but I don't think it's worth your energy to try and predict or plan stuff like that. Next summer BTC could easily be the same price it is now, would you still sell? For instance, consider a scenario in which we get an ETF approval in January or something, BTC pumps into the 50's but then stalls after the excitement wears off and comes back down before regrouping and trying for ATH around the start of 2025, might look something like this:



I am NOT necessarily predicting this but it's a very plausible scenario, and in fact would be amazing because it would set us up for the full four-year cycle again instead of the worrying left-translated option which could see us peak in one year instead of two. That's much harder to play, wouldn't get as high, will probably leave a lot of our alts out in the cold, and will likely have a couple of years of bear afterwards.

If something like that ^ happened and you sold next summer then RIP. It's too soon yet to say whether we will top next year or the year after. The moment BTC breaks ATH is an important one to watch, you could say that's when we're really in the "don't **** it up" phase of handling this cycle. Could be a year more from that point, or maybe we see something entirely different like a much earlier (heavily front-run) top, or maybe le supercycle meme and it just keeps going. Either of those will **** people up pretty nicely.

This made me LMAO, Its so true. ETH is trash other then a store of value.

"Oh... you want to pay with Ethereum?"

"Yes! Please!"

"That will be $12 plus $48 for fees."

"Wow! Awsome!"

"Sorry, the payment was declined. Do you want to try with a higher fee?"

"With pleasure! Thank you!"

"That's weird! Your money was transferred but the transaction was reversed."

"No problem! That's a feature! Thanks!"
