    The only question is when it will come, how brutal it will be and how long it will last
    beincrypto.com › bitcoin-btc-cycles-areBitcoin (BTC) Cycles Are Lengthening – Hypothesis Confirmed




    Oct 23, 2021 · Bitcoin reached a new all-time high of $67,000 on 20 October. This confirmed the hypothesis of Bitcoin's lengthening cycles. One of its consequences is a decrease in ROI in
    “the 2017 bull market lasted about 35% longer than the 2013 bull market”.
    “If we assume that this one is also going to last about 35% longer than the previous one then by the end of Q1 2021 the bull market should end.”

    BTC/ETH ratio now down to about 14:1. Just saying.

    There are definitely differences between this cycle and the last two. Of course it's best to be prepared but we've never had this type of institutional money poured into the market. As long as they keep pouring the money in, the bull run will continue. Because we recovered from the $30k low, that does give confidence. The ups and downs will always occur. Profits need to be taken. We just need to keep away from the 90% crashes of the past. $31 to $2 and $1200 to $200 are the ones that hurt.

    BTC is the safest route at this time. NFTs and gaming will continue to boom regardless of what happens to the rest of the crypto market.

    No one wants a bear market but we have to be realistic. Seeing your portfolio down 80-90% in couple weeks is no fun

    I sold for profit then buying the dip later. Being in this volatile market since 2017 I know that when BTC and ETH goes down, altcoins go up. Then later when all BTC, ETH and altcoins goes down, buy the dip.

    There was once in inverse relationship between BTC and ETH but now all coins follow BTC for the most part. The alt movements are more extreme. I'm still waiting for the decoupling. NFTs and gaming are on their own and SHIB is included with NFT/gaming.

    15% is not a major crash in bitcoin and the explosion of $SHIB is doing damage to the market as a whole.Btc price back to where it was Oct 15
    the 2018 bear market price drop from $19500 to $3200 is what i am always guarding against

    Technical Analysis Update: Price flushed briefly through the 60k level & was quickly bought to raise it back above 60k support. This is turning out to be a major stand for bulls. Near-term resistance $61,700 then $62,100. If 60k breaks, support is $57,800

    Don't get me wrong my I love this and my entire financial future is dependent on crypto I am probably over exposed to alts but I am in this and have been for several years to make "f**k you" private island money.These opportunities won't be around forever.It is possible in this bull run with the right alts and once there I am out for the most part.Will keep some and stake some. I remember 2018 and that won't happen to me again this time .Bears may hibernate but they always wake up hungry


    Bounced perfectly off support around $58000 for now

    Shiba inu , another crap meme coin, is same like lottery ticket or gambling at the casino . It would not bring anything new to the space , besides cool hype and dream about huge profits . Only some would grab some profits , majority will be left with bags full of worthless coins and a dream and hype will be long gone

    Wonder how Doge holders are feeling about the rise of Shib? Can there really be 2 dogshit coins in the Top 15?

    Shit like this is making me believe the bubble is going to burst and we are going into any bear market sooner than I think.

    Shiba has a DEX and NFTs. The top NFT sold for $194k. They are building their own layer 2 blockchain similar to what Axie Infinity did with Ronin. They are adding a metaverse and games with a play to earn feature. Shiba is adding burning mechanisms that in theory increases the coin price.

    It's a healthy pullback. It went from $40k - $66K in 3 weeks

    Lol we'll be alright. Start panicking if BTC goes below $40K but imo it'll get to $100K before that

    I mean I look at all that and ask is anything they're doing special or unique? Also, NFTs(mainly the straight up art ones) make me feel old. No matter how many times they are explained to me, I still dont see why they're valuable.

    Like, Sushi has the Dex, all the Defi stuff and layer 2 connections already. Does the NFT gaming and burn mechanism make Shib 15-20 times more valuable than that? If Sushi announces a month from now they are going to jump into NFT boat, are they going to shot up to the top as well?

    NFTs make absolutely no sense to me either as far as being valuable. Shiboshis were minting for .1, .2 and .3 ETH. The floor price is now 1.89 ETH. It all comes down to community and publicity. The best project doesn't seem to matter much.

    When I look at NFTs, the first thing I check is Twitter. If they have under 10k followers, it's a pass.

    this cannot convience me either . nothing new in the space , team is not its strenght also . it is nicely wrapped meme coin . all those reasonings to make people believe that they are investing into sth that has value .

    It's semi-unique in that it's community run more than any other coin. Many here had their investment out a while back and are now playing on house money or have even taken investment plus profits out. My feeling is when you see anything with a strong community, jump in on it early and take some profits on the meteoric runs. All coins could bust at any time. During bull runs is when to take a few chances. Right now things are a little scary since the run has gone on so long. Alts are in danger. My sports bets are in BTC and SHIB now. If the Shiba game hits, the whole ecosystem will go crazy. There's a social club similar to Board Ape Yacht Club. People are starting to live in this virtual/augmented reality worlds.

    This is what BYAC is about. My hopes are that Shiba becomes the same thing.
    As the name suggests, the Bored Ape Yacht Club is billed as an exclusive society or social organization, and owning one of the coveted NFTs unlocks that membership. It earns users access to an exclusive Discord server, for example, where fellow owners—including celebrities—hang out and chat. And Apes tend to flock together on social media, where the increasingly familiar avatars have united a digital brotherhood of sorts.
    https://decrypt.co/resources/what-is...-nft-of-choice

    Shiba has a private discord. Shiba will also have a game. The NFTs tell a story. They were minted for .1, .2 and .3 ETH. A few have gone for over $100k and the floor is 1.82 right now.

    Twitter increase in growth, SHIB holders exploding in numbers, 300,000 people signed a petition asking Robin Hood to add SHIB and NFTs that continue to increase in value can't be ignored.
