    Bitcoin heading for worst yearly start since at least 2012[^]

    Quote:

    Cryptocurrencies are likely to remain under pressure as the Fed reduces its liquidity injections,” said Jay Hatfield, chief executive of Infrastructure Capital Advisors. “Bitcoin could end 2022 below $20,000.

    Currently, it's at just under $40,000 - but if lots of you sell, it'll plummet. If you don't, you could lose a packet. If few of you sell, it might be stable or even recover. Decisions, decisions ... I'm not gloating, I'm just glad I have never been tempted to "invest" in crypto. Do you have any? Or do you think it's just another pyramid / Ponzi scheme at heart?

        Genuinely I have no cryptocurrency of any form, and neither does Herself. Just not a natural gambler, I guess.

              It's about 2.5% of my portfolio. I don't think it's a pyramid or Ponzi scheme, but it's definitely speculative. Some say that it will replace gold as a store of value, and others say it will go to epsilon. I lean towards it going to epsilon but can also see it going to the moon. Well, the world's gold stock is about 200K tonnes, or about an ounce per person. There will only be 21M bitcoins, or about 1/300th of a bitcoin per person. So if I have 300 ounces of gold, I can hedge it with 1 bitcoin. :)

                    I don't think it's 'structured' like a pyramid scheme. It's much closer to Dutch Tulip Mania - when the price of Tulip bulbs vastly exceeded their intrinsic value. And then the bubble burst. :omg: P.S. Before our Dutch friends take a shot at me. I don't subscribe to the view that Tulip Mania was a country-wide and country wrecking thing. But I do think it is one of the earliest examples of a market bubble bursting.

                      This. And like all victims of Ponzi schemnes, they will defend it until the bitter end. If and only if I'll get some good info on promising upstarting coins I may try a pump and dump myself, but I'm too averse to this kind of speculation to even know the right channels.

                        Just holding, in it for the long run. Bought in at 2k in 2017, so if it pops, so what! I have a number of different ones, and spread depending on if they are 'classed' as store, currency, utility or just meme, to spread risk and take a punt across the different classes. a few weeks ago when BTC was up at 60kish, I was sitting over 10x on original buyin cost. Yes, it's a rocky road, but i'll take my chances, would fully expect BTC to reach new ATH this year at some point. Need to have a diversified investment portfolio, so the usual stock/bonds/property (uk and europe, both rentals and commercial dev loans) Currently, my best performing overall asset class is property development loans in Eastern Europe approx 10+%pa, and of course this is tax free for my residential status.

                          I put a few pounds in just for fun, and I know I am not going to make a fortune from it. My real savings are all kept in sensible places (not under the mattress).

                            I must be getting old. I still can't wrap my head around the idea that an algorithm can have an intrinsic value, other than the obvious value of being marketed as a piece of reusable code. I'll stick with equities for now...

                              Cryptocurrencies are likely to remain under pressure as the Fed reduces its liquidity injections,” said Jay Hatfield, chief executive of Infrastructure Capital Advisors. “Bitcoin could end 2022 below $20,000.

                              Currently, it's at just under $40,000 - but if lots of you sell, it'll plummet. If you don't, you could lose a packet. If few of you sell, it might be stable or even recover. Decisions, decisions ... I'm not gloating, I'm just glad I have never been tempted to "invest" in crypto. Do you have any?

                              I remember when others were indeed gloating, in this very forum (or was it the Soapbox?) when Bitcoin tanked from $20.000 to $6.000. Fancy that: selling at 6K and being told that 35K is low. I do have some Ether, only pocket money, but still decently multiplied.
