Historically speaking Bitcoin doesnt do much immediately after the halving - but it does do impressive spikes and tops out around 18 or so months afterwards. No one can time the market, but I'd say it's worth considering entering a position at current prices and if further dips occur, just add to your position. Over the long run, there is a higher probability to the upside than the downside, .It's not about guessing the market's next move; it's about playing it smart and steady during trading...managed to grow a nest egg of around 2.4Bitcoin to a decent 18Bitcoin in the space of a few months...

Wrong. Nobody is using BTC for transactions, only investment. No utility, contrary to the myths that are pumped by celebs, Saylor and bots. Does anyone with so much as one functioning brain cell believe that the world's governments are going to allow a competing currency to have a level playing field with their own CBDCs? BTC's transactions aren't free, and they're not private. (Ask the pipeline hackers and other criminals how private it is?) I've bartered many things including gold & silver for FREE in completely private transactions. If I'm dealing with someone who needs verification of the metals......out comes the Sigma and a pocket pinger. Verification problem solved.

Your video serves as a calming beacon, particularly when financial markets are in tumult. Your analysis offers a prudent course of action, fitting seamlessly with the current stage of the economic cycle. Nonetheless, one cannot overlook the expanding mainstream adoption of cryptocurrencies since 2019, as well as the fervent discourse surrounding prospective Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs. Might these elements sustain the market in this particular cycle? Speculation abounds that we are on the verge of a significant market upswing, making this a moment of great import for any discerning investor.

The real Trojan Horse is the 1MM BTC that Satoshi holds that can liquidate a chunk of the market and destroy confidence and hold hostage the value of the rest.

Rapid liquidation and possible discounted buy back for power, wealth, destabilization or switch to CBDC.

If you look at the way the Zimbabwean economy went from printing paper money to digital money, as in more zeros in the bank, its basically an exaggerated version of where America is heading if Americans don't say a resounding no to CBDC's. And by way Zimbabwe went from a 20% per annum inflation to a 76 trillion % inflation in just a few years. This is basically, 1. The government looting the system and decades of peoples hard earned and hard taxed savings. And 2. The governments way of creating a kind of communist control over every citizen, where fear will govern you, that you'll know, if you don't agree with them they can just turn your money off.

@@elubbule3838 Not true if even a small proportion of the population decided to use "cash" (I've seen different figures but it looks like only one percent of domestic supply is cash). I imagine the story from the banks would be something like "we are out of cash but we expect a shipment in shortly. In the mean time your "money" (sic. digital entries in our computer) is perfectly safe". In plain English nobody has "money", they have digits (even if you consider the worthless Federal Reserve Notes to be "cash")
