Bold prediction. Sticking your neck out. The amount of Bitcoin changing hands at this price will make a strong bottom.

Yeah sounds plausible I hope the paper bitcoin gets flushed out in the penny stocks rekt phase
It’s already different. Virtually all price action predictions or expectations from the usual suspects have been wrong. We are on track with the power law, but people hate that model for some reason. What do you need to see before acknowledging we are in a new paradigm? Imo a lack of a greater than 50% correction disproves that this is just another cycle and not a super cycle, by which I mean a longer than usual bull market. I don’t think we will have a blow-off top in Bitcoin. Stocks will, though.

This tbh. Wild that calling a 100k bottom is so legit now. Crazy times
Been telling my normie friend to buy bitcoin for about 2 years. He didn’t take me seriously until the price ripped. Then he reached out and admitted I was right but that he’s going to wait for the price to go back down to around $60k. When I asked how he knew it’ll go back down to that price, he just said I know. He could’ve bought around $80k twice. He’s not going to be happy if $100k is the next cycle bottom🤣

Prediction: 2026 will be a bear market, negative 50 to 70 percent
Bearish as fuck Matt. We are going to over 1M in 2026 (revised from my 2025 prediction) Life is much more fun when you are a MAXIMUM BULLTARD But yes SELF CUSTODY 99% Leverage 1% for the entertainment

If BTC breaks below $107,000, it would signal a loss of momentum and invalidate the bullish scenario. This breakdown may lead to a quickn move toward $106,000 or even $105,800, the recent swing low.

Covid lockdown taught me how to harness my rage. 1. Know myself. 2. Identify and study the enemy. 3. Understand their environment . 4. And exploit their vulnerabilities. Separate perception (bullshit) from perspective (reality) eg We all have 3 faces i) The public face masked to deceive. ii) The private face - for family and friends and iii) the secret face - the REAL you - hides your shame, guilt, obsession, etc. I'm not the clever one - Shawn Ryan's ex CIA guest - Andrew Bustamante laid this out. Follow the money and you find the corruption - Vatican, City of London, Washington. Professor Richard Werner and Mike Malone (10 podcasts on The History of Money) To study the enemy - Learn the nuances of the English language - political speak, bank speak, media speak, trade speak, government speak, legal speak, tech speak, finance speak - All designed to confuse, to censor, to shut you up. Grateful thanks to Nostr developers for providing a free speech platform.. Their environment - they want control. Control the food, the energy, the money - Kissinger's mantra. The vulnerabilities - Greed. After gorging themselves on the free money - we will witness them cannibalizing each other eg Big Pharma - Fast Foods. I stole that from Charles Hugh Smith - Hollowed Systems to create the illusion of stability. The Ratchet Effect. Dedollarisation is happening thanks to BRICS and Bricspay blockchain. They're moving to their own currency, backed by gold reserves. China - From their history courtesy Professor Wang Gungwu to their current status as the global factory, supply chain infrastructure, to cornering the rare earths market. Global South - These countries have been subject to Western colonisation, slavery, scarce resource exploit, political regime change, bombed, sanctioned, genocided, poisoned, debanked - so yeah - there's some pretty pissed off people out there. BITCOIN - doesn't care about my face. It doesn't care about politics, vaccines, borders, sanctions, wars, BIS, Federal Reserve, Rothschild, Gates etc... Bhutan and El Salvador proved it. The crypto market cap is currently at 3.5 Trillion - compared to Forex who trade that amount every day. So now I will focus on the risks, rewards and help the shift from Fried Fiat to Beatem up Bitcoin. So how does this relate to Matt ODell's thread? We come from a society of quick fixes, convenience, consumerism. Where everything activates by pressing a button.So, there will be people who like the principle of being their own bank, but don't consider the type of hardware to use, the networks, the apps, the exchanges and at the same time secure their data against theft, scams, hacks. And then we have Wall St. They are not your friends. They have the broker, the maker, the taker - and their mode of operation is MEV - fancy name for Maximum extraction value . Translation - they slap your face when you enter and kick your ass when you exit. In other words the value you enter with, gets topped and tailed when you exit. ETF's are a classic example. Many of them are in the crypto space. See if you can pick them out. I trust Matt ODell, Marty Bent, Jeff Booth, Peter MaCormack, Lyn Alden, Alex Goldstein. They are my sit up and listen. Trust is not easily given. Bitcoin is hardening into a powerful tool. Its the one asset that will throw the spanner in their years of planning to turn us into dairy cows on a one way ticket to the abbotoir. I make no apology for ranting. Its like breathing in fresh air after a recent rain shower. To those who suffered through Covid - I'm really sorry.

Whats your estimate for blow off top?
Bull cycle? Bitcoin price has increased 48% from its 2021 top. And 2021 was a neutered bull cycle! 48% over 4 years + ! Bloody hell - the definition of a ‘bull cycle’ has definitely changed by the looks of things! Bull ant 🐜 cycle perhaps??? View quoted note →

“This Bull Cycle” @ODELL In what world is this a bull cycle? From the 2021 top to the current price right now it’s less than a 49% gain! Barely, just barely edging out inflation! The copium dealing is REAL! Stay humble and stack sats. Shout out to me! 🐷 🪈 🇧🇬 View quoted note →

Regardless of the sentiment’s accuracy, the two most important words here are the two most likely to be overlooked. The mind will naturally wander along the optimistic route looking for confirmation from those with clout while ignoring the risks along the way. Leverage, for institutional and retail investors, should be understood before deployed. Particularly for the latter, as it will become incredibly easy to ignore the severity of not doing so as numbers rise and blinders become cemented. Those will be the ones returning to this post wondering how they forgot to stay humble.
Governments are creating Bitcoin reserves… Companies are building Bitcoin treasuries… Sovereign wealth funds are calling Bitcoin the new 60/40 portfolio model… …all while Bitcoin’s price is stagnant, barely 50% up from the 2021 highs. If this was XRP, we’d be trolling the hell out of it. Instead, we get cope like this trending. 🫠 View quoted note →

Yeah but will you be able to do that going forward? The prices fluctuate so much you never know what you're getting.
I don't understand what you mean. There's nothing more reliable over the long term than Bitcoin secured by energy and time through global consensus. There is variation in linear price levels that seem massive, but when looked at exponentially those variations are very small and the general trend is clear. More will continue to adopt. More mining efforts will arise, increasing the hashrate and value. More will begin to accept it for exchange. And so on. Bitcoin is winning, it's only a matter of time until you realize it.
People do that more and more In addition, how do you think a new money would emerge : it has to start with store of value, but mean of exchange follow (partly in parallel) is it is easy and practical to exchange sats for food and the fact you can’t do it everywhere is only because we are still very early

It says Bitcoin but then the price quote, €0.50, is in fiat. That shows the fiat conversion right there. The Bitcoin price will fluctuate accordingly.

For the sake of Bitcoin it would help if you had some sort of website where you publish prices still, just so that we can use it to create some sort of CPI for Bitcoin. Flowers are more useful for a CPI than wallets since that's something people buy on a regular basis whereas luxury leather wallets are a rare purchase.

Yeah I know - this was more of a funny side joke. Of course right now people will set the Price connected to the conversion rate to Fiat. But how else should an emerging new Money System evolve? This will change with time 🙂 But there are already (very few) people living and paying only in Bitcoin. It‘s not their fault the sellers of products connect the Bitcoin price to the Fiat price. So these bitcoiners already live in a Bitcoin Standard.

Also may I ask how do you pay your suppliers? Do you just sell flowers or also grow flowers? If you grow flowers what are the inputs? Seeds, bulbs, fertilizer? I know nothing about the flower business.

I clicked the pizzeria one and they price in fiat presumably because they do a fiat conversion for you. Bitcoin prices will fluctuate accordingly, the dream of bypassing fiat gone. #btcfail
frphank's avatar
frphank 5 months ago
Yes it's their fault because they don't offer a currency that allows for stable prices. The shops price in fiat because prices are relatively stable. Not perfectly stable of course, could be bette, but much more stable than Bitcoin.
I purchase bulk bulbs from a wholesaler, my seeds from small business, my inputs are compost & free wood chips. this is my third season so many perennials are just starting to flower a bit. We specialize in flowers that dont travel well like Snap dragons and dahlias. My side goal is to get into dried herbs as they store & ship well. Follow #farmupdate for more

And again - how would you think a new monetary system would evolve? You really think the way it would is Like: „Here, I made this new Willynilly-currency: I will set the Price for 100g of bread to 10 Willynillys.“ And everything accepts this and a new currency is born? Really?
frphank's avatar

No, you need to have network effects and a mechanism to control supply so that the amount in circulation roughly matches the goods and services on offer. This is really hard so only governments currently can do it.

> Bitcoin and network effect? - Check A network for a currency would be a circular economy of buyers and sellers. There's no such thing. > Controlling Money Supply in Bitcoin? - Check Controlling doesn't mean limiting. It means the supply can be increased or decreased to match the goods and services on offer. The supply of Bitcoin can not be decreased and not be increased above 21m. > Control of supply in goods and Services in circulation and offer is NOT needed (wtf?!?!). — Nowhere did I say "control of supply in goods and services". We live in a free world and can offer as much or as little as we like. However the supply of money has to roughly match the supply of goods and services for prices to be stable. > Otherwise gold would not function at all. It doesn't. There are as many shops doing business in gold as there are in Bitcoin. None. > So honest question: What is the Problem again? The above.

Sry sent by mistake… All I can say is: How can you deny the network effect? This is just plain naive. Bitcoin Adoption is growing everywhere. Circular Economy is not here - YET. Bit you know what? This is exactly how a Network effect would come in place. It doesn‘t make a big „BANG“ and everything is there at once. Instead naturally growing - that’s exactly whats happening now. Monetary Supply has NOT to be decreased or lowered to match goods and services. If you believe so I don‘t think we can come to a common sense 🤷‍♂️. In the past humanity used Gold coins. The Problem with that was not the fact that the Gold coin Supply couldn‘t be increased fast. (First time I would hear this argument) The Problem was the divisibility, the transferability and that it could be altered with (which was done a lot) But all of these points are solved by Bitcoin. So again - I don‘t see your arguments. In my view they are plain wrong 🤷‍♂️. So I guess: agree to disagree? But I would love to have this conversation again in 5 years! Especially regarding the newtwork effect 😊.
OMG you’re right! That’s it everyone, bitcoin has failed because it’s imperfect from the moment of its birth. Time to abandon the life rafts and return to the HMS Titanic that is the dollar. Thanks for opening my eyes, mate, I really dodged a bullet there. Phew!
