I actually think this iteration is somewhat sensible for once.

Back in 2020 an article was released that published some private Hal Finney emails sent to Satoshi. For this write up, the specific email in question was dated November 19th, 2008 (exactly 17 years ago today): The answer to this email was never published…until 2024, when Marrti Malmi, AKA Sirius, AKA Bitcoin developer #2, published his emails with Satoshi spanning from 2009–11: https://mmalmi.github.io/satoshi Satoshi's third email with Martti asked him to develop a FAQ section for Bitcoin.org. To give Martti a head start on this task, Satoshi attached dozens of previous email answers he had already given to people asking about Bitcoin, before May 2009. One of these attached answers matches up exactly with the above private Hal Finney email on Nov 19th 2008: https://mmalmi.github.io/satoshi/#email-3 Image of Satoshi's Response to Hal It appears we have a match. Happy 17th anniversary to Satoshi and Hal Finney's Bitcoin discourse. And thank you Martti Malmi for making this email match possible.

Wicked 200 dollars below my price, f me. I thought about adding more collateral, but I decided to be responsible and not add to a losing position. I knew it would happen tonight, and something really tried to make me check my phone, at around 6 am, but I didn’t. I felt the danger. I had a nightmare about everything bugging and going to 0, literally all cryptos at 0. I’m normally really cool and don’t care, but money’s starting to get low and I have to lock in before it runs out. Thankfully only this position has been affected. [link] [comments] |
Go into your screen time use. If bitcoin Reddit, and all your other crypto related apps are consuming more than 3 hours a day at the MOST congratulations you have an addiction.
If you find yourself staring and swiping down in real time to see how your crypto is moving, you have an addiction.
THAT is not INVESTING if you are doing the above. It is GAMBLING. Why? Investors play the long game and understand it will fluctuate. They don’t stress it and have invested what they can afford to lose.
GAMBLERS however aren’t calm, their livelihood is on the line, so they are ANXIOUS. They PANIC. They put money for bills in crypto hoping to make money but now the bills are due and panic because if they sell for a loss they have less money than they started with for bills.
Which camp are you in? If you fall under the gambler it is time to reconsider your strategy because your strategy is just RISKING money not INVESTING.

There are currently two camps: those who believe in the traditional 4 year cycle and those who think the era of 4 year cycles is behind us. If you strictly follow the 4 year cycle model, then yes, this cycle may seem like a disappointment. But in retrospect, Bitcoin has made an incredible run. Just 4 to 7 years ago people were talking about banning it, and now it is being accepted by countries, a U.S. President is openly discussing it, and the SEC has approved several ETFs. We have come a long way.
The 4 year cycle is still relevant because of the halving and the impact of supply shocks, but we have probably entered a new phase shaped by broader adoption. Bitcoin has moved from early adopters to everyday investors buying through ETFs. So maybe a third camp is emerging, one that acknowledges the importance of the 4 year cycle while also accepting the new reality of what Bitcoin has become.
In the short term we are under the 50 WMA, which could be interpreted as entering a bear market. But if you also believe in CME gaps, it would not be ideal to close above 103k only to leave a gap of around 9k behind. So let us see what the next week brings. Things should become clearer soon.
These are just some thoughts from a random person. Whether this make sense or not, I am not sure, but I do believe Bitcoin has become something huge in recent years, going from discussions about banning it to being widely accepted across the world.
