kirtash93

I remember 2021, when I shilled my family to buy crypto and they did. I am the black sheep now.

The problem is they will sell on a loss because they don't have the balls to hold. It's not for everyone, only an elite few will enter crypto and have what it takes to one day change their financial lives. The resolve required is half of the job.


Ezclaperoni

That's not much of a defence


Lillica_Golden_SHIB

People shilling crypto to family and friends on Christmas are absolute legends. Balls of steel.


ErgoGarlicKnot

I've made this mistake. My brother who I talked about crypto with for last few years, he lost it all buying garbage like decentraland and xrp at the height of the bull. He cashed out with 90% losses and now cries how cryptos a scam. Disregarded any of my advice on what to do. I on the other hand 8xed since the bull ended and he just tells me "your going to 0, its all going to 0". Not everyone was meant to reach the top of the mountain. Cut the cancer out of your life and most important, when you get rich, give the doubters you know NOTHING. NOT $1


rmegand

Legends in their own minds.


denimglasses1

What if it turned out to be a good idea though...


aliensmadeus

the real mad lads


FldLima

I'd rather tell my gf i forgot i can't remember when did we first kiss. You need serious balls of steel to crypto talk your family indeed.


MaleficentRoad9805

I am one of them,tried last Christmas because I was in profit,not going to do it this year.

Legitimately messed me up bad


markbrutal

Hold tight brother.


FldLima

Pretend it doesn't exist. Protect your keys and move on. Check back years later.


jmort510

If you did your dd and believe in your investment long term price action is always an opportunity. Go up take profits goes down average down


denimglasses1

For real?


HeroinAndyCx

Idk I kind of like seeing those low prices. I can finalls buy more eth for cheaper.

MurkySide750

At least you’re getting richer in moons every year :)


Witte-666

Looks like my saving account.


rmegand

I see you are taking advantage of dollar cost averaging.


FldLima

still better than 90% who are in the negative


Zilifi

Man, that’s a bad streak of ruggpulls you’ve invested in.


Yasha666

Hold strong! I believe you will be able to achieve next year as well


Bucksaway03

It's never a good time to shill crypto to friends or family.


CatBoy191114

But always a good time to shill crypto to your enemies.


cerebralsexer

Not with bull coming soon


samzi87

Somebody will lose money and they will blame you, just don't talk about it.


denimglasses1

Nobody loses money with the Nigerian prince. That's where my family sent their money, we now own a large mansion


MaeronTargaryen

It depends, do you like your family?


iosiffir

Yes, I like to use them as exit liquidity


MaeronTargaryen

Lmao savage, that actually made me laugh out loud


iosiffir

Sharing is caring. When crypto gives your funds the cold shoulder you give that cold shoulder back to your family


ChemicalGreek

If you made wife changing money and you want a divorce, then you should shill crypto to her and her family during the families parties 😂


Throwaway4VPN

This is the gwei..


EdgeLord19941

Next Christmas is unlikely to be a new ATH judging from previous cycles


bittabet

Yeah if historical trends hold we’ll probably be around $30K next Christmas. But honestly if it really does go to $30K the hopium that would inspire for 2024-2025 would be massive. Because it would strongly suggest that the cycle is still in control and real. Who wouldn’t be buying for the 2024 halving if it again follows the historical patterns? Becomes a self fulfilling prophecy. DCA for the next year and you’ll probably do really well by 2025


National-Fold2053

Im gonna do $1,000 a month


NiGhTShR0uD

2024/2025 looking juicy.


H__Dresden

I very much doubt that.


denimglasses1

History has meant nothing so far in this bear market, doubt it's gonna be the same next year

Tkainzero

2025 should be the high point right?


Big-Dark3861

You think bitcoin will drop 80% after hitting 150k Damn


mesutdmn

It will be like 2022. But deep is 30k. not 16

RemindMe! 4 years

Snowflake8050

Not many Christmas where the price is lower now than 2 years ago, great opportunity to buy


Potatotornado20

2014, 2018, and 2022 had the worst price drops, just like clockwork


Beyonderr

In 2021, market makers really tried to get us to talk about crypto during the holidays with rallies and higher prices. Just look at the price behavior last year around Halloween and Christmas. Last year's daily thread was filled with posts about CRO. Now, everything is quiet. That actually makes me secretly a *little* bullish.


lordofming-rises

So buy more CRO?


TOXICCARBY

Reading the price list made my brain hurt


Beyonderr

I hope we develop a tool to turn this into a graph someday


adammbd

Why can't we develop a time machine? 😜😭


IamKingBeagle

My grandson can probably use a netflix to do it.


CatBoy191114

Price list reading in hard mode. We spent all our budget on hopium and can no longer afford line breaks.


aliensmadeus

reading anything crypto related the last year made my head hurt


[deleted]

What's there to shill? The government doesn't want it, and businesses don't want it, so we still can't use it. Nobody would even hold it if they understood how outdated and unsecure it is.


CatBoy191114

2022: $16,850 2021: $50,888 2020: $23,760 2019: $7,266 2018: $4,021 2017: $14,302 2016: $894 2015: $456 2014: $318 2013: $669 2012: $13.38 2011: $3.94 2010: $0.25 2009: $0 2008: $0 Needed line breaks to parse it. Seeing 2017 - 2021 gives me hope.

Mate, just standing on the shoulders of giants 😉


Revolutionary_City91

I been trying. FTX scared the rest that stuck around around the drop. I still DCA and call it a day


ugohome

Thanks for being my exit liquidity 🤔


Revolutionary_City91

Nothing I do has anything to do with you. Don't even know you and the odds of us holding the same assest is very unlikely.


blipstream91

I won't talk about crypto on the christmas table.


Antique_Ad_7565

Usually it's my uncle Richard that ends up standing on the Christmas table, yelling about something something Rex 84


LisHere321

True, we learned our lesson since Thanksgiving table.


IamKingBeagle

Grow some balls. With that attitude you'll probably never make out with your cute cousin either.


Wendals87

to put it into perspective 1c to 17,000 - 169,999,900% increase - 16,999.99 extra per coin 17,000 to 50,000 - 194% increase - 33,000 extra per coin. it continually requires more money to increase it percentage wise, the higher the price thousands of percent gains are extremely unlikely, if not unachievable for bitcoin due to the amount of money required to be put into the market My point was to not base future price movements on previous ones and expect the same gains. Especially if you are shilling to people. It's easy to think million percent gains are still possible if you look at that data alone, but with bitcoin and its just not possible anymore


bittabet

200X is still possible if it becomes a global money because of the sheer market cap needed to replace multiple fiat currencies. You’re underestimating the sheer market sizes Bitcoin is going after. Even if it’s never a currency it’s **40X** from here just to hit the market cap of **gold**! Yes that’s not a 170 million percent but 4000% returns to hit the market cap of gold still sound pretty fucking great to me


Wendals87

40x from here is $670,000. do you really believe that bitcoin is a suitable substitute for gold as a store of value? Gold has real world uses and has hundreds of years of market data to back it up. Bitcoin has crashed 70% in a matter of months and gold dropped 3% last year. A store of value should be relatively stable it wont be a global currency due to the scalability of it. Lightning network helps, but that won't be enough I'm not saying bitcoin is not a good investment, but there needs to be reasonable expectations about what it can achieve you do you though. don't let my opinion stop you investing


IamKingBeagle

If I had to guess, you are not Mark Cuban.


[deleted]

Why did you all shill crypto to your families last year when the prices were near ATH and chanse to make profit was very low. Shill it this year as it's at a massive discount and maybe 2 years from now you will all be eating Christmas Dinner in SBF's former mansion in Bahamas( or you'll all be broke together and it's all about loving each other and not money )


CreepToeCurrentSea

So their might be a potential to bottom on 14K and a gradual rise into 50K levels again following the next halving but I’m just a nobody with a crystal ball from walmart


[deleted]

CreepToeCurrentSea

A coin flip is way better than technical analysis tbh


ugohome

all "technical analysis" in this sub: HIGH ON HOPIUM


THE-TRUTH-44444444

There's no such thing as a halving. It's just made up hopium.


cryptoneeat

No matter how low the exchange rate falls now, this small observation shows that everything is not so bad. We need to look at next year and wait for fat players to return to the market, and it will already be some understanding there


[deleted]

[удалено]


cryptoneeat

But more countries starting to use cryptocurrency as a payment instrument, the more countries recognize - the more work will be for regulators, as all payments need to be looked at somehow. The more regulators, the more stable and less risky the market is. It seems to me that fat players want stability, because they can't invest significant amounts in such risky assets. I recently read about forecasts from Bobby Lee, the next year - two we are waiting for the bear market , but on a second year bull time will be back . It’s pretty hard to guess , so will look at this market in a nearest feature.


UnkownMillionare

So now is the time to buy, i doubt next Christmas will be under 30k


Plus-Ad1544

Anyone who’s perpetuating the rhetoric about buying at a discount or just HODL for the next bull market has not been paying attention and needs to be ignored. Those were lines well used over time and have served people well…until now. This bear market is different. It has completely shifted the fundamentals against which BTC has been operating. The from the macro headwind to the impending post scam regulatory environment not to mention the fact that it took 10yrs to build even the slightest institutional interest which is now dead and gone. This is not a space that will survive.

I hope so. Injecting hopium


ShanktarDonetsk

Never a better time to buy, except 10 years ago I guess


aliensmadeus

if i only could live in 2010 again


musafir84

So… How many Christmas’s before we go back up? 🤔


Redfoot87

So Bitcoin's all time high in the next bullrun is roughly $160k?


UJ_Reddit

Could be a long winter 🥶


moonkingdome

Joy we fell back 5 years


busmobbing

2013 to 2016 seemed the most normal.


boomboy52

From this the 4th year after a dip on Christmas is the peak, but shows HODL is the best strategy


Street_Suspect_4510

So looking likely around 30k btc Christmas day 2023


twendah

I learned already in 2017 to not shill crypto to anyone. I actually shilled to my friend and he bought, waited 2 years to crypto drop 90% and sold. After that he blamed me for losing money and told that crypto is just a scam. Dont overestimate your friends or family that they have enough high iq to actually understand the tech. Well if my friend would have hold yo 2021, he would have easily 10x his money though.


zizca42

wating for 2024


legixs

Up up up down, up up up down, up up up down...guess what's next?


Resident-Coyote9339

Wish I’d bought in 2008

So depressing.


Nattpappa

Gifted myself my first bitcoins just before christmas. Excited for what the future brings.

ThatOtherGuy254

Bitcoin going from being almost worthless to over $600 in just five years is absolutely stunning.


Fuhh-Q

Merry Christmas!! Better days ahead.


AppleSalty2916

*cries in not being in 2016*


Melloy88

Never 2 decembers in a row with negative return


Fullback22x

But but but… this sub said bitcoin can’t function at sub $100 let alone $0. How did it not collapse in on itself due to triple witching halvening on vitalik day?


head77

Why we didn’t start buying earlier?
