Wow!

People are really disenfranchised with cryptō.

Can you believe that this thread has been on the same page for about 6 days now?!

I have never seen this happen before on this thread

Funnily enough market is pumping at the moment . The truth is most have been liquidated. Those not liquidated are scared of being trapped.

For the two reasons above; most people will get sidelined.

Happy new year bros,
More money to our pockets.

Alts are pumping , alihamdulilai , but don’t get trapped.

Fastt:
Gold and silver keep hitting ATH. Its a matter of time for bitcoin.

Keep grinding, Keep stacking. The goal is in few years time, your purchasing power is still high.
As long as you have a stable job, keep buying BTC. As money printers keep printing, inflation will eat your savings.

Stable coins is not a saving account.

Compliments of the seasons!!

If you are out of the market, the market might leave you behind. No one knows the bottom. You never loose with BTC!!!

I agree completely.
The price you bought btc today won’t matter in few years time.. if you doubt this, check its past performance, no matter the price you bought btc in the last cycles , you’re still in profit . If you in for a long term, just keep buying at any price.

However, I await btc far below 50k, to get more value for my money.

Ballzproblemm:
Gold, silver,stock market all hitting ath accept Bitcoin and the entire digital currencies. People still haven't figured out, right now big banks are watching the likes of binance,wintermute , to manipulate the market, not that they like it but it serves their interest as retailers are kicked out.

No bullish charts or whatever technical indicators will send the market up , only when the structure bill have been put in place to eliminate manipulations,will the market then fly.

Till then,it's sideways trading, super cycle won't kickstart without that bill.

My bro, there’s something I know for certain, even if the structure bill is passed, it won’t be in our interest, they’re not gonna make this shït easy for us. It’s just a case of reporting a thief to a politician😂😂
Crypto was the easiest means to beat the matrix coming from nothing, they discovered this and would do anything to ruin it. It’s the last level play ground between common players and OGs.

Now , I throw the question to the house;
How do we beat this?

Merry Christmas guys

New strategy

Buy btc when low

Sell when green.

What could be the lowest price during near?

41k or much lower

hmmm.
I have started planning ahead of next cycle like this, keeping,10$,20$ 30$,40$ here and there ahead..
I plan to start buying around 30ks, I’ll buy all the way down and stop buying at 50k. I might adjust my entry depending on what market gives but it will be around that region Gods willing.

And for alt, if I’m ever and ever going to touch it, I’ll stick to the majors, especially sol, xrp and bnb.
BUT I WILL NEVER AND EVER BUY THEM if they don’t hit my limit order( sol —20, bnb—200, XRP—0.2).

I may miss out on alts , but one thing is 100% certain I won’t miss out on btc next cycle.

Guys buy this coin CC Canton network
This coin is going to pull a shib and pepe. It will run massively. Please buy the coin guys you're not going to regret it. Nobody calls a coin here but you see this one, I'm calling it with my full chest, you guys should buy it and wait few months and watch how you cash out massively. Buy Canton network CC

I won’t say this is marketing cos I’ve once been like this too 😂
1. No it won’t pull shib and Pepe move @3bmcap. Do you even know what shib and Pepe move look like?😂 not even in this market condition.
2. You shouldn’t be beating your chest for any coin, if they lose money, will you refund them ?
Just like betting before kickoff, all coins look perfect until you put your money. This is crypto , anything can happen.
I’m not pessimistic, I’m just trying to sensitize you so you don’t fall for market trap.
Merry Xmas.🎄. Cheers 🥂

iLegendd:
My last tip of the day.

In next cycle, focus on BTC. Before you buy alt, wait for QE to start and altseason has done the first round of pump. When it corrects, then find a way to get in.

The only thing you should buy during capitulation in bottom of bear market is BTC and top 5 alts.

The crash on the 10th of October has reset the industry forever.

Stay tuned and stay blessed, good people.

I completely agree with this. You’re on point imo. My 2cents;
If you go in heavily on btc during capitulation in bottom of bear, you might not have any need for alts. One or two alts might perform better o but what if you pick the wrong one? Why risk it on underdogs when there’s clearly a winner before the race starts? Even at current price btc is still up x6 from last cycle low , outperforming the top 5alts except sol.
With btc you’re 99% sure you’ll hit ATH just by hodling, no trading, no scalping, no analysis, no panic !

If you still want to buy alts as noobs despite the gospel against it, be patience, you’ll get it cheaper, it always looks unrealistic until it happens. Keep starking USDT and wait.

Sol @20
Doge @0.02
Bnb@ 100
Ada@0.09
Bch@90
Xmr@ 50
Eth@1000
Link@2
Xlm@0.05
Sui@0.20
Aster@ 0.02
Hbar@ 0.02
Xrp @ 0.2
Aave@20
Bgb@0.9


You might consider buying them only at that price or at 95% correction atleast ( save eth, bnb and sol)
If you follow these pattern , you’ll make money alt season or not because you don’t need them to hit ATH.
The worst that can happen is for those entries not to hit, the good news is you still have your money intact. Those coins have “solid” backing/community , they won’t die easily.

It’s over two weeks now since I started consuming heavily Benjamin Cowen contents on YouTube and Twitter. I’ll say he’s 80% right on btc and 99% right on alt coins. ( from what I’ve seen so far, he’s never been a fan of alt coins outside eth.) Now there’s an interesting back and forth convo about btc and alts between him and one alts analyst guru on twitter @credibullcrypto.
Check the link below, you’ll learn a lots from it.

Let me make it brief.
There's this lady I met 4yrs ago through hookup.
I used to love-vendor her to guys and she featured in one of my adult contents.

She has done orgy, 3some and even do girls too. She smokes.

Last this year we started a relationship and last month she stopped hookup.

We are planning on getting married next year but I am having a double mind.

She's very good and my spec. She said she will stop smoking.

Any advice?

DaemoLee:
I wouldn't say many would be better off without crypto, cos I know many folks close to me that are doing great in life trading BeTc, I would say we all would be better off and doing great without 'Alt' coins!

Another thing I sensed is that, the more information we put out about the market online, we are feeding them on how to deal with us. Hence, creation of likes of Binance feeds/discover...

If u win, u are lucky, if u go again; u are at high risk of loosing it all.

To corroborate this, there’s never been an individual that regrets buying and hodling bttc. So I completely agree,
Secondly, weather we give out information or not, every transaction is recorded on blockchain, so any method or strategy is exposed the moment you click buy/sell..
Lastly, I believe institutions adoption/interest, launchpads proliferation and trump launching a memecoin ruined alt season.

DaemoLee:
When they realize everyone has lost faith in the market, all those million coins/tokens u think can't pump would start going up here and there, then when they have your trusts again, they dump and leave u hanging. Chances of becoming poor with it is way higher than making u rich.

and you’ll rarely end up with no regrets buying those coins.
If you profit but sell early , you’ll regret
If you hodl and it dumps, you’ll regret
If you cut your loss and it pumps , you’ll still regret.
😂

SaintUlot:
When people are already in position in crypto, they ll need to encourage others to buy, they ll have to make encouraging posts and news. This is very much understandable, if more people didn't buy, how ll they make their own profit?

The trending news now is that the crypto market cycle has been cancelled, who are the committee that sat down to cancel it? But to be sincere, someone whose portfolio is @ 80% loss can never pray for the cycle to end just like that, 80% loss could be suicidal, that's a bitter pill to swallow.

it’s sunk cost fallacy. Just like a popular proverb that says when you get on the wrong train, the best immediate action is to get off at the next station to avoid going further.

DaemoLee:
"This market literally does the opposite of what people thinks" I have heard this thousand times!
What does that tell u?
Have u asked urself if the market was/is human to have a sense of it's own.
To me crypto is a big manipulation game controlled somewhere. With motives of impoverishing and keeping people that has investment plans and get rich quick mentality under financial control using economic factors, global events, human emotions as the umbrella.
If it doesn't exist, people would be more productive in physical businesses.

I am just thinking wild or am I saying nonsense?

you’re not saying nonsense sir, what you put up there is a fact. Crypto has a way of keeping you delusional. It’ll paint eldorado picture where you’ll live in fantasy until reality hit you hard. I was hoping on x10😂😂
Take for example , I yielded to sinissin advice earlier this year to stop dca-ing on my position and face real life sht. The advice somehow came as an insult, but today, it’s one of the best decisions I made.
Do you now know the funnest thing? The money I used to face real life business was around 30% of my loss in crypto 😂. I added to my business and it pays my bills today while crypto adds to my bill.

RayBandsNL:
Are you telling us there are no "Trillions" ?

baba mi, there are trillions, but are they going to pump it on crypto?
If yes, will they risk it on alts and memes?
At this point, if liquidity is coming, 90% of it will be concentrated on btc imo. The remaining 10% won’t evenly spread on alts, it will be on select alts( the majors).

This bear market will be extremely brutal.
Think of the lowest of the lowest price, alts will hit it! Virtually every of your bear target will hit on alts.
I’m not asking you to get out o, I’m just asking you to prepare ahead for the incoming bazooka . On average , alts are currently down 70%, you’ll love it more at extra -70. With what I’m seeing now, 99% of memes will die, all alts save the top 50( I’m being generous self) will never recover.
Many of you will be trapped in the next pump, thinking we’re back. You really thinking there’s enough liquidity to pump over 30m coins? You will learn and you will learn hard way.
I’m out on all positions.
The market won, I lost!
From now till next year December, I’ll dedicate my time learning market curves and all without putting 1$ to market.
I’ll start buying if btc drops 30k$, eth 1k$, bnb 200$ and almighty sol 20$.
These entries might sound unrealistic , but considering what happened in October 10, nothing is impossible again.

Looks like Nigeria electricity supply is stable now just that the tariff is high!.
I’ve spent close to 76k in two months now.

I am now a btc maxi. As long as this thread exists, I’ll keep talking about it.
NEWBIES, avoid alts in total for now and stick to btc with long term mindset. Do this till the coast is clear on alts. I’m typing from the place of severe pain and loss😂😂.

I will only consider buying alt again if coins like sol and bnb go down to 2022 bear price. That time One doesn’t need those coins to hit ATH before making profit like that.!

Watching your hard earned money go down the drain on alts, and knowing fully well you can’t recover it is an unquantifiable pain. Others might not agree, but I am openly admitting it. It’s a lost cause ATLEAST for now.

I know some of you will be wondering while I’m so concerned and worried about someone’s else money.




I’ll tell you,
I don’t care how you make your money o, but the fact that you consider investing in crypto it means you have the belief that abilities (money, success) and intelligence can be developed through dedication,effort, and learning. So you need proper guidance since you have that legit mindset.
IT’S NOT A MUST TO LEARN FROM YOUR OWN EXPERIENCE. Trust me you don’t want to be in that place.


If you had bought btc @110$, if you dca all the way down to its low, worst is you breaking even if not in profit. Let’s even assume you’re out of liquidity to buy more self, for btc not to go back to your entry , e mean say the entire market will have to collapse be that !. This thing is common sense for Christ sake!, check past performances, has there ever been anyone in history who regretted buying b t c You have your answer!.


Learn, unlearn and relearn, that’s how you grow!

I like as your papa avoid me like that. .
Arrant nonsense.

doyin01:
Did you buy Bitcoin which is not alts ?? Are you in profit by now ?? Or I should mind my business

For example I bought Bitcoin when the price was at $110k , by now I should be in loss...does that mean I should attack those who told me to buy Bitcoin at that time ?? Simply because Bitcoin price didn't go the way they told me ??

The point remains that whether alts ooooo or Bitcoin oooooooo , everybody go collect....

Like are you serious right now!?
I sincerely want to believe you are trolling and rage baiting for fun.

GRACEGLORY:
I guess those that bought BTC @126K or ETH @4,800 are in madt profit by now, Now you see it applies to all. And especially being smart. What do you say about those that bought ZK @0.03 sold @0.08 and re*entered @0.03?


The safest way is to by before they fly for people will surely take profits.
ZK is down 43% from August, but up 200%+ from Oct lows and TVL exploded 230% this quarter with Goldman, Deutsche Bank, UBS live on it. Real adoption, not hype.
BTC dominates because liquidity hits it first. Altseason always lags — ETH/BTC breaking out, BTC dominance cracking 58%, TOTAL3 above $2T resistance. Rotation is starting, not dead.
x20s are gone, but x3–x10 on solid L2s/RWAs/AI still very possible once capital rotates (Q1 2026 with more rate cuts + SOL ETFs).
Cycle isn’t dead; it’s just slower and more institutional. Weak hands are out, strong projects are quietly building.

Yeah BTC maybe safe if you bought a5 the right place,same with ALTs, Writing off all alts is the real delusion. Stack both, stay patient, the board is still moving.

Thank you for your reply , I appreciate. I hope you don’t see my posts as attack on your work. Correct me if I’m wrong. Okay let’s dive into this.

1. Looking at past and present performances , there has never been a bad time to buy btc , especially if you’re a long time hodler, all you need to do is just buy and wait, and if you want your gain quickly, employ a strategic dca, buy @ every 10% dip, 100/100 you’ll recover in no time. If you don’t recover on btc then be rest assured the whole market has collapsed. So buying at 126k is not considered a loss yet!
2. I don’t like to argue without data, but point to me people you personally know or know online that bought ZK @ 0.003 ? If anyone bought at that price atall, it’s mostly the team behind it!. That price is the lowest of the low and virtually no one has the balls to risk their hard earned money buying at the point. Even the team behind it are probably holding on part of what was airdropped to them and not what they bought with their own money. Lol And let’s even agree some people bought it at that price that’s x0.1 to this price point , now compare it with someone that bought btc at similar level, that’s like x100000. There’s no way anyone will compare alt performance to btc and not look funny at the end.
3. You said ZK was up 200% from October low ?nice!. Do you know even if you’re up 200% from your price point, it’s still no where near its ATH and if you had kept holding, you’ve wiped out the gain with massive loss of -45% atleast
4. You agreed that era of x20 is gone but x3/x10 is possible. Do you know that even if a hodler hits x10 on ZK now he’s still not in profit , he just recovered his money after years of hodling. Can you same the same thing with btc ? NO.
5. Btc is just down 29% a three time 10% dca with big size would have you at break even point, and even if you don’t have liquidity to do that, we both know it’s a matter of time before it recovers and sends higher. I have never seen any one regretted buying btc, they regret NOT buying instead , whereas I have see thousands lament ever touching alts including those that have made profit from it but still hodling.
6. You talked about strong projects are quietly building. that building is on paper, aside eth, alt with the strongest army is xrp, I can’t count 100s of white papers claiming xrp is building something yet it’s only hit ATH once after 2017 own. Building whatever is just a marketing gimmick ! How does it benefit us investors? What value does it add to us?
7. You mentioned some catalysts like dominance cracking 58%, TOTAL3 above $2T resistance,Q1 2026 with more rate cuts + SOL ETFs, all these things would only work if noobs buy alts and hodl. They were burnt , most of them have incurred so much losses that they might not touch crypto again!. It might also work if attention is shifted from memes totally and no more proliferation of memes. We said more than this in 2024, infact if those catalysts had the expected impact, some of us would be riding latest GLE now!😂.. there’s 90% possibility that those catalysts will only favor btc and select alts( like sol, bnb and eth). Nobody is ready to lose money again!
8. Finally thank you for advocating stacking btc alongside alts , atleast, that’s a healthy gamble , but let me add, if anyone is going to do that, the ratio should be 9:1..

Whatever applies to Zk, applies to other alts, so this is not a blaming game. It’s a matter of changing approach and perspective.
TL;DR
as a newbie, BUY BTC.

GRACEGLORY:
For the records, ZK was $@0.058 when I made that call. August 11 2024

Yoruba adage remix: "Alts that pump on hype crash... but those with revenue and upgrades pump again, bigger."

Watch what happens.


📌 GOD Bless you too, sir

Nothing will change, atleast for now.


A long read!!!
August 11,2024, btc was 59k$, today despite the dip, it’s still up 60%!!.. 89k$!
Today , ZK is @0.033
Which means whoever bought at that price is currently down atleast 43%. On a norm 0.056 was supposed to be the bottom. Such loss in a supposed bull market, now imagine what the price will be in bear market? 90% chances it will die and never resurrect. Apart from eth bnb and maybe Sol, other coins are useless. ‘use case’ is a marketing gimmick , they’re all 💩 coins in disguise. Infact I even appreciate meme coins for being direct and glaring. So one is better off with btc in the long run.
The blame is not on you or anyone, the market dynamics have changed ni, gone are the days of x20, if anyone manages to pull off x2 now , the person should run without looking back. infact it will keep getting worse, like I’ve said before , the moments alts witness significant pump, there are army of people waiting to take little profit or break even or even forgo bearable losses and exit the market. The rest hodling will still go back to square one after becoming exit liquidity, they’ll turn bag holder. either become the player or the pawns ♟️.

Now let’s talk about the four year cycle and alts season catalysts

The FED ended QT on December 1, the first time since 2019, market didn’t positively respond. Only btc did.
they injected billions of dollars into banking system, largest injection since Covid, market didn’t react positively, only btc did.
BOA recommends its clients to consider crypto , first time ever they’ll do that, market still didn’t react.
Big America investment managing companies like vanguard are exposing millions of their clients to crypto , still market is not reacting. Truth is Noobs are no longer interested in magic internet money again, their fingers got burnt which means nobody to dump on again!
Rate cut is expected again in this December , yet market is already priced in.

maybe not for btc, but for alts, at the moment, four year cycle is dead. No greater catalyst than the ones listed above. So tell me what will fuel alt season?.
I’m not seeing that anytime soon but I believe someday, market will reset itself.
Purpose of my ranting is, I want us to stop being delusional and face the reality.
I don’t want newbies to waste their time and meagre resources on this. Money is hard to come by especially in countries like ours with little to zero disposable income. Some might never recover from the loss. It might lead to depression for some. These people have discovered that easiest way to make it for common man is (was) crypto , now they’ve ruined it. They’re extracting our liquidity by painting alts Eldorado.
I like you and this is not attack, please let’s be open minded.

Alfred200825:
Meanwhile there are married security guards, cleaners, messengers who are earning far less than that and are living fine.
Better is a meal of plain vegetables eaten with love than a feast filled with strife and fighting.

Believe everything you see or read on social media at your own peril.

They’re not living fine rara. 99% of them beg at work. They beg incoming customers .

You might not need my advice , but I’ll still say it anyway.
I doubt anyone here was as optimistic as I was months ago in crypto.
Most people’s problem now is sunk cost fallacy. Not only in crypto , it happens in other spheres of life too. Deep down your heart , you know you’re drowning, but you’ll keep coming up with reasons to hold on just because you don’t wanna let go of your loss.
Past 3 weeks, made some big boy purchase running into millions. If it was before, I would use it to dca on my Portfolio and by now, would be down like 50% again on dca.
There’s one thing I know for sure, we men learn better from experience than advice.. you’ll learn bitterly, don’t worry !.

Crypto lost its juice the day Donald trump launched $trump coin. Final straw was sol launchpads , they ruin it all.


As a normal human being , think of it, we have over 36m coins now, and every one of them claims to be useful and building something .. how do you expect liquidity to spread around? Btc alone sucks over 50.% of the entire liquidity. Another 30% of the liquidity concentrates on the top 100. Aside the one in btc, others don’t have freshly injected liquidity , they’re of the diamond hands who are waiting to break even and dump it all back to stables or btc.

Maybe you don’t get. Let me break it down o? 2021, you cooked 1bag of rice to feed 100 people , today, you cook same 1bag of rice to feed 1m people. That’s self explanatory enough except you’re dumb.
It’ll keep getting worse, you know why?
Alts will keep bleeding slowly to death. why? Degens and normies will jeet at 20% profit from entry NOW.
what happens when that happens ? Coin dips. Rinse and repeat. No one will take the risk of hodling anymore.





IT doesn’t mean there won’t be an outlier , even in bears, some coins will pump aggressively . Now what’s the probability of catching it right on time? 1%. I dropped 10 coins few weeks ago on this thread , only one surpassed ATH and it’s currently down 80%.
If it’s by force to buy crypto , stick to btc!!!!!!!.
You’ll learn, don’t play !

I’ll still document my pnl by year end sha.
