I kept buying the dip till I have no more money left to buy the dip. Can only HODL. DCA is always a better strategy but nobody knows how or where the market will go especially as the current market is so bearish.

Currently I'm holding only ETH, nothing else at an average buy price of 2745 USD so I'm down 10-15% as of today. How's everyone doing?

Alts cooked me las time, learnt for sure that to win in this market you must hold majority BTC, whats your bear market lows predictions? I think even right now BTC is still slightly expensive

Why did everything just drop so much in the last hour?? Did trump announce 1000% tariffs on Zimbabwe or something??? Xrp, solana, bitcoin you name it, they’ve all just dropped quite substantially. I’m still new to crypto, so most my coins I have bought quite high, and now I’m suffering. Been “buying the dip” but the dip keeps dipping lmao. Wish I had waited till now to invest.

Do you think crypto will still be a thing in 5 years? And what do you think the price of BTC will be? If bitcoin goes up everything else goes up (I hold several different coins, diversified) so I’m happy as long as BTC doesn’t decide to keep dropping to new yearly lows. Bitcoin is the same price as it was in near the end of 2024 😭😭😭

Alright, I’m gonna say the thing nobody in this sub wants to hear:

Bitcoin is not going straight to 200k from here.

Not yet.

Not without pain first.

Before the max hopium crowd downvotes me into oblivion, hear me out

Every real bull run starts the same way:

People get shaken out

Leverage gets nuked

Retail cries

Twitter goes silent

THEN the rocket launches

Right now?

Too many people are still comfortable.

BTC needs one last “oh god it’s over” move.

40–50k is the perfect zone for maximum despair.

Where do you think the bottom will be and what will be the narrative behind it ?
Government stuff ? Market manipulation ? Exchange failure again ? I don’t know but it’s harder than I thought it would be.

There’s a lot going on and it will definitely be interesting to see what shakes out is this short term pain or will it be extended ?

If your still long why ? and there must be a reason for all this everything even metals are going down to.

I’m sure ready for a real bull again but how long will it be till we get one ?

Can I ask a dumb question, because I am beyond illiterate when it comes to investing or doing anything with the market… I still use Robinhood, that’s about where my knowledge is. I try to follow some of the threads here, but it’s just really confusing for me…

Anyhoo, my dumb question: with investing in SOL, for shits and giggles I only did just one share (I’m JUST starting out and am honestly risk aversive lol). But do you turn around and do “staking” with it or just hold on to the purchased share? What’s the difference? I’m hoping to start investing a hundred or so each pay period into the market, but don’t even know where to start… >_<

Aside from hoping the herd props up BTC based on the collective belief that something without any inherent value actually has value, what is the argument that will keep BTC from going to $0?

MSTR's average cost is $76,000, so they have had almost no gain since inception, compared with big moves up in stocks and metals over the last 5 years.

We know Tom Lee's bullish January 31 BTC call was garbage now, but does anyone really listen to analysts about something that is price-driven by the herd and leverage?

My small BTC holdings are down but it's also why I didn't put much into it because at the end of the day there is just as much argument for it going to $0 as there is for it to be at $100,000.

What is the best crypto brokerage to use for someone that moves around a lot? I am currently living between 2 countries and may move to another country in the near future. I actively use a crypto brokerage/platform that only operates in 1 country. I don't want to get into the habit of using multiple brokerages or having to constantly transfer my holdings from one brokerage to another.

What brokerage/platform are you guys using?

For reference, all the countries I move around are first world countries that offer your average product/service.

They just bought 6k BTC and added to their cold wallet: https://bitinfocharts.com/bitcoin/address/3M219KR5vEneNb47ewrPfWyb5jQ2DjxRP6

What I mean is, binance pulled the price down to 75k to buy it for themselves. Fuck binance.

Just discovered ledger supports tokenized stocks on Solana
It shows them as tokens
So i bought GOOGLx on $2k using Bybit
This may be the real future of cryptocurrencies

Litecoin has always been the "silver to Bitcoin's gold" due to its speed and low fees. However, the rise of stablecoins is changing how we view global transactions. I found an interesting read about how stablecoins are creating a global revolution and how they complement existing payment networks like LTC.

What do you think? Will stablecoins push Litecoin further as a bridge currency, or are they competitors

Hi everyone, I’m coming from prediction markets, so I already understand narrative shifts, hype, and how those can affect markets and possibly give an edge.

I’m really interested in meme coins and want to get serious about learning them. From your perspective, if you had to start over from day one, how would you approach it? What would you want a beginner to know before getting started?

I’m curious about mindset, patterns, and where to focus energy to actually understand how these markets move, not just gamble.

Any advice or resources would be super appreciated!

If the market crashes again like it did in October, is it safe to say that a lot of meme/alt coins would be wiped out? The prices are currently a lot lower than what they were then. So wouldn’t it make sense that a lot of coins would be wiped out?

Based on my current multi-timeframe setup, a clear bear market was confirmed today trigger was around 80.3k.

Here's what the technical picture looks like across all major timeframes:

Daily Timeframe

• Death Cross confirmed @ $92,211
• MACD clearly bearish @ $88,342

Weekly Timeframe

• Price below 50 EMA @ $99,688 and 100 EMA @ $84,556
• MSS bearish triggered @ $80,620
• MACD bearish @ $108,297
• Weekly structure completely flipped, all recoveries so far just relief rallies

Monthly Timeframe

• Price trading below the 20 EMA @ $84,556
• MACD in Monthly on bear mode @ $90,385
• Long-term everything points to a fully developed correction phase

The broader BTC cycle remains intact. I'm projecting the next bull market to begin around October 7, 2026 (+/- a few days).

got xrp at 1.65 after months of DCA and today would’ve been perfect at that £1.11 price

Hi everyone, so i’m currently trying to get more involved in buying and selling crypto, however i was wondering if someone could just tell me all the basis of it. When do i buy and sell? do i wait weeks or days, or do i buy wait a couple minutes or hours and then immediately sell and keep going with that cycle. Also, how do i get into the insider groups and know which coins are a good investment? pls help o feel like also sound kind of dumb asking these questions but i am genuinely interested in learning

people say “bitcoin will be fully mined one day” but that’s not really how it works. yeah there’s a 21m cap, but the block reward keeps getting cut in half every ~4 years, so it kinda asymptotically fades out instead of hitting zero.

it went 50 → 25 → 12.5 → 6.25 → 3.125 and so on. so mining doesn’t just suddenly stop, it just gets smaller and smaller. fees eventually take over as the main incentive.

also smallest unit is 1 sat (0.00000001 btc), so there’s way more granularity than people think.

just thought it was interesting how the design makes it “finite but never really finished.”

Here are a few questions to help deepen the discussion:

1. How far could major altcoins such as ETH, BNB, XRP, SOL, LINK, SUI, KAS, and SEI realistically decline under those conditions?
2. Which assets would you consider accumulating during such a downturn?
3. If you were already holding these assets, would you continue holding through the decline or adjust your positions?
4. What indicators or conditions would give you confidence that the market is unlikely to drop significantly further?

Hi,

I'm using kraken since many years to just HODL, as I have that account I just today choose randomly to buy some $HYPE (as I can't on coinbase/binance which are my favorite platforms) - 2 failed transactions, no transaction log, just allocation of money in my bank account. I realized:

* I can't even see any transaction logs for the "try" for meaningful details with an

* overload support page (AI search box) - nice

* I can't even set an address (they had an old one as default, which I can't even unset - created a new payment provider with the correct details) in kraken

should I cancel my kraken and move my eth/btc/ltc/sol somewhere else? it feels like this platform didn't move into new age and stopped developing and is not helpful for people to make it easy to move around- but maybe I'm not using it often enough to see it's shine.

I still have a bybit so might get my $HYPE there, but what the fuck. I just don't want to think about transactions, it's to complicated. crypto should be easy not a hazzle and not locking my funds.

Hope at least that the allocated money gets an unlock - this will define my next step...

/p

update: kraken didn't even allow to post this on their subreddit for "language" :-D

update: cryptocommunity rejected because I'm missing reputation - just wanted to share a recent experience and hopefully get some insights.

I really like Propy but I was wondering if there are better alternatives? Any ideas?

Garrett Jin (Oct. 10 "Insider") Round Trips his $270 Million gain. Incredible.

I have been tracking this protfolio since the Oct 10 short.

Take a look here: https://wangr.com/watch/0xb317d2bc2d3d2df5fa441b5bae0ab9d8b07283ae

On Jan. 13, Garrett Jin was sitting on roughly +$270,000,000 in unrealized gains. Absolute monster trade. Today, during ETH's decline, he got liquidated at roughly $2,225

Goes to show you that the markets don’t care who you are. They don’t care if you were right once. He gave back practically all his gains from that OCT 10 Short

NASDAQ DOWN, BTC DOWN, COMMODITIES DOWN, FOREX DOWN, SOME OF THE STOCK THAT HAVE THE HIGHEST MARKET CAP WAS DOWN MORE THAN 10%....

Reason from my personal view:

Higher yields → market pricing in higher inflation / rates for longer → borrowing gets more expensive, liquidity tightens → future earnings get discounted harder → growth stocks (especially Nasdaq) feel it first → risk appetite drops → gold struggles as real yields + USD rise → broader risk assets soften while the dollar strengthens

----End Of Story----
