Some things I've learned after hodling bitcoin since early 2017
1. Never believe anyone's price predictions. 2. Don't "diversify" into other cryptos; none of them are actually decentralized, everything except bitcoin is a shitcoin (yes, really), and it's all gambling. The point of bitcoin is not gambling, but to end modern day slavery (fiat currency). 3. When everyone you know is talking about bitcoin, you're at the top of a bull market. You'll likely be too exuberant to realize it though. It will be obvious in hindsight. 4. Don't "trade some altcoins on the side to get more bitcoin". You are not that smart, and the overwhelming probability is that you will get wrecked. 5. DCA into bitcoin. Ignore your emotions. Don't try to time the market. Just stack what you can every paycheck. 6. Don't be too excited about bitcoin; people will feel like you're scamming them even though you're just trying help. 7. Go to meetups & conferences. Don't be isolated. Bitcoiners are generally very awesome people. 8. When people ask you about how to buy bitcoin, send them to a BITCOIN-ONLY company. Example for why: My cousin bought bitcoin (on Coinbase) during the bull market, then sold it for shiba on the same platform and now she pretty much lost everything. Bitcoin-only companies are the safest option to keep newbies from doing newbie things. 9. Be on #bitcoin twitter and nostr. Obviously if you're reading this, you're already here...but I didn't get on twitter until 2020 and can tell you that it's a lot less lonely hodling bitcoin when you see a bunch of other people on this platform experiencing the same things you are. 10. Be skeptical of influencers. Even me (I'm not a huge account, but still). Some are good, some are bad. Even if they have good intentions, their judgement can be clouded by bad incentives. 11. Stop trying to convince everyone you know that bitcoin will make everything better (even though it will). Instead, be a good resource for the people who eventually reach out to you about it. Be known as "the bitcoin guy" and let people come to you when they're ready. Have good content prepared for them to read/watch when they do. That is all. It's been a great ride so far and I'm happy to know you guys. #bitcoin #dyor #crypto2023
We often see volatility on Friday, into the weekend, and this time was no different.
BTC's CME close price sits around ~$89K (on regular exchanges) so I would assume it sticks around that during most of the weekend. Once we start opening up with gaps more regularly, I think it's good to be aware of that. But that's not been the case for many months so I'm just assuming that trends continues until it breaks.
Going by that assumption saved you from a lot of fakeouts towards both sides during weekends and early in the week.
Blockchain needs reliable data, and that’s exactly what @APRO_Oracle is delivering. Fast, secure, and truly decentralized oracle solutions powered by $AT . Excited to see how #APRO transforms cross-chain data for the next wave of Web3 builders!
$BTC Recently saw its largest drawdown this cycle.
Whether this is going to just be another correction in this larger up trend is yet to be seen.
Technically, the 4 year cycle is still pretty accurate, timing wise.
But if we look at price, we could consider the 4 year cycle broken already, seeing this year is down while it's "supposed" to be up big in the final up year of the cycle.
It's going to be an interesting 2026. I don't think it's going to be that straight forward. I think it is more likely to see these smaller few month up & down rotations as we've been seing for some time nnow. #BTC #TrendingTopic
The current report features updates of APRO, Vitalik Buterin, Uniswap, Infinex, Binance, Ethereum, Bitdealer, Upbit, Securitize, Superform, Tether, and EdgeX.
With the recent sell off, $BTC fell back to its Summer 2024 lows relative to $GOLD.
BTC was down over 50% relative to hold compared to its 2024 highs.
But it has now traded back down to its Weekly 200MA which is holding as support for the time being.
I would argue that this is a good value area for BTC relative to gold and would be comfortable betting on outperformance from this point. Whether that's due too gold slowing down, or BTC catching up. I just think the value is pretty good, relatively speaking.

The prevailing trend for #AT indicates a bearish sentiment with significant weakness in indicators, suggesting potential for further declines unless a strong reversal is identified.
Currently, price is struggling to hold above the 0.1360 support level, which could serve as a short-term bounce zone. The immediate resistance is situated around 0.1538, with notable supply further up near 0.2000–0.2400, a range unlikely to be reached soon without a momentum shift. The absence of a bullish setup reinforces a bearish bias, and traders should look for rejection at 0.1450–0.1538 to consider short entries targeting recent lows.
