You and your other account warned people to cash out when Bitcoin was 3k and Eth was a hundred quid and that it was all going to zero.

So yeah, not much credibility, but if/when this kicks off another bear I'm sure you'll be here to remind everyone of the fact

Don't disrespect his CELEBRATED analysis!

But this thing is going to fall quicker than a fat slags knickers at a swingers party.

He raises a good point though, can you admit you were wrong the last couple of times you said it was going to zero?

The three blokes I know who have had money in the crypto game have all cashed out now.
They are happy to be out with their head above water.

For sure the Revolut and Robinhood traders who entered the market this year looking for quick gains are now leaving as they are basically trend-followers (and they tend to amplify the trend in either direction).

I guess soon we are reaching levels whereby longer term holders are being tested. It will be interesting how things turn-out (as I post this, anyone who bought last year is still positive).

This thing is wild.

Looks like I should've stayed Tethered up that time. Was expecting altseason, but got a crash! Are you not entertained?!

It'll be interesting to see what the rest of the year will be like. It's not even summer yet.

The sovereign Governments are going to start closing doors to crypto all over the place. It will soon solely become the vehicle for criminality that its currently developing as and when the music stops, those criminal elements will be left holding valueless, untransactable records.

The rest of this year looks only like more and more erosion of values. Get out, get out now.

Coinbase is only allowing me to spend a measly $3,000. So where can I buy a one full bitcoin in one transaction?

CNN expecting SEC intervention within 30 days to make a determination on improper, even criminal market manipulation of crypto.

It is being paralleled with junk bonds, a rigged market, a corrupt commodity like ivory or blood diamonds rather than any sort of asset class.

This is what i think is happening. The music is stopping and the smarter money is walking.Really once the ****ing with governments started, it was time to get out.

If we start to see fresh coins that haven't been moved for years in quantity back in the market then the game will be up.

I'm surprised Charlie Lee hasn't been nabbed yet, he's been all-but named by the SEC in relation to manipulating LTC on Coinbase when he worked there.

Tether briefly dipped to 90 cents (and still at 97): https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/tether

Probably just a short term liquidity issue, but it won't help with the panic mood ...

I appear to have missed a lot today. The exchanges crashing might actually be a good thing. Less panic selling may allow the prices to stabilise.
