🇫🇷 « J’ai commencé à investir en 2012… et aujourd’hui je me fais le plus discret possible »
Un investisseur early français revient sur près de quinze ans d’expérience dans l’univers des cryptos.
Il s’est intéressé très tôt au Bitcoin, « par pure curiosité intellectuelle pour la technologie sous-jacente », bien avant que les cryptos ne deviennent un actif financier grand public.
Ceux qui ont investi en 2012 ont vu le prix de Bitcoin passer de quasi zéro à des sommets inimaginables une décennie plus tard.
Aujourd’hui quinquagénaire, il affirme vouloir rester extrêmement discret sur l’étendue réelle de son portefeuille, refusant de divulguer sa valorisation, même sous couvert d’anonymat.
En effet, les vagues récentes de kidnappings et d’agressions visant des détenteurs de cryptos l’ont profondément marqué. Ces dangers poussent de plus en plus d’investisseurs à réduire toute forme d’exposition publique, et même certains à quitter le pays...
En France, la question de la sécurité des investisseurs crypto est devenue suffisamment préoccupante pour que les forces de l’ordre et des experts recommandent de renforcer ses protections personnelles et numériques.
Machi Big Brother’s HL account value has just fallen below $1 Million. He had to dip into the PleasrDAO Treasury (which he deposited to 5 YEARS ago) in order to add margin for his latest Hyperliquid longs.
Only 5 months ago Machi Big Brother was worth almost 9 figures. Now, he lost it all and his total PnL stands at -$28.00M. Will he ever make it back?

$BTC Currently on track for its worst Q1 since 2018.
The first quarter of the year is known for its volatile nature 5 out of the last 13 years, Q2 saw the same result as Q1 in terms of up/downside.
So it's safe to say, whatever happens in Q1 does not generally translate over further down the line according to the historical price action.
What I'd always recommend is to mainly watch what the market is telling you. Is the market structure bullish or bearish? Is it the same on every timeframe or is some reversal taking place? That's the only way to navigate this market, especially the way it has been trading for the past 1-2 years where there's not one easy major trend but smaller few month rotations throughout the year.
Yesterday, it was reported that Russia is considering moving back to the US dollar as part of a wide-ranging economic partnership with President Trump.
In the past 3–4 years, Russia has strongly advocated reducing reliance on the USD, fueling the major "de-dollarization trade" narrative.
Several other countries have followed suit, reducing exposure to dollar assets — a key reason for the DXY's decline.
The massive rally in gold and silver has also been driven by this trend, as countries dump Treasuries and buy precious metals.
But now this trade may be over.
Russia is now planning to shift toward a dollar-based settlement system, which would boost USD demand.
A stronger USD has historically been bearish for assets, so metals, equities, and crypto will suffer.
Metals will be hit hardest, as a strong USD undermines the debasement trade narrative.
For equities and crypto, it will be bearish but likely not for long.
With more energy supply entering markets after a Russia–US partnership, inflation will drop and the Fed will become less hawkish.
This reduces the odds of monetary easing, but at least removes Fed uncertainty.
Remember, BTC rose in 2023 despite Fed rate hikes and QT.
Risk-on assets love certainty — if this deal is finalized, it will be mid- to long-term bullish for stocks and crypto.
Gold and silver, however, could enter a multi-year downtrend.
