Why are we afraid of choppy markets?
Why do we hate extreme, disorderly choppiness in a very narrow range even more?
Having our principal eaten away hurts us in the moment, but losing our confidence keeps us awake night after night.
So, realizing how frightening choppy markets can be stems from the fragility of our own confidence.
ETH has given us an example. I’ve lost money on all of my last 5 ETH trades. Those who have read my posts know that I haven’t shown my ETH positions in a long time, because I’ve been burned and don’t dare open an ETH position. But that hasn’t stopped me from continui

Bitcoin was priced at $700 10 years ago. What will it be worth in 2036?
On this day 10 years ago, Bitcoin was priced at around $700.
No one knew whether it would survive.
Today, its price is about $80k.
Now imagine someone posting this message on October 20, 2036:
“Back in 2026, Bitcoin was only $80k.”
What do you think the final number will be?
$100k? $500k? $1 million? $5 million?

✨️✨️Michael Saylor thinks Bitcoin $BTC could move rapidly higher because he doesn’t see the US allowing 30-year Treasury yields to hit 10%.
If yields climb that far, the pressure on debt markets and the wider economy would be enormous.
Could Bitcoin benefit if policymakers are forced to step in?

If I can't weather this round of layoffs at Huawei, can I trade full-time? I don't want to work anymore. I'm constantly on edge at this shitty job (just a contractor) 😅😅

Most people in crypto are not early.
They’re just early to the narrative that already has momentum.
When did you last buy something because it was actually undervalued rather than because it was being talked about?
Cause when you think about it, in every cycle the same people say “this time is different” and “the fundamentals have improved.”
How much of that is real, and how much is just better marketing?

10/20 | Nasdaq 100 cash CFD around 29435, under pressure again after a 1-hour rebound.
First watch 29544 above, then 29550–29640; only a reclaim and successful retest would signal a strengthening trend. If 29400 gives way, watch the prior-low zone at 29100–29200.

Mesh and Visa say crypto and stablecoin balances will be spendable at 175 million merchants.
Allium counts $3.9B of stablecoin card spending this year through September.
Visa moved $14.2T in fiscal 2025, about $1.6B an hour.
That makes all of it about 2.4 hours of Visa volume. No launch date or wallet list yet.

How long would you wait to get your own Bitcoin back?
Mt Gox creditors have been waiting since 2014
And the wait just got longer
The repayment deadline has been pushed again to October 31 2027
That is the fourth one year extension
Meanwhile Arkham still shows around 34K BTC sitting in Mt Gox wallets
Think about that
More than 12 years after the collapse people are still waiting to recover Bitcoin they once held on an exchange
This is the part people overlook when choosing where to keep their crypto
Holding Bitcoin is one thing
Having control over it is another
If an exchange controls the keys

The price is moving within a descending channel on the 1-hour timeframe. It has reached the lower boundary and appears to be preparing for a rebound; a retest of this boundary is expected, which could support an upward move.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicates a downward trend, but given the "oversold" condition on the 1-hour timeframe, there is a strong possibility of an upward breakout from this downtrend.
An orange trend line is present, supporting the potential for an upward rebound.

$WLD Current price is 0.5369. The upper Bollinger Band at 0.5545 is the first resistance, while MA20 at 0.5264 is the short-term bullish line of defense. The key price range is between these two levels.
Overall market sentiment is warm, with the Fear & Greed Index at 55 in the greed zone. BTC stabilizing is providing a floor for altcoins, but the market has not entered extreme euphoria; funds are more inclined toward sector rotation than a broad-based rally. $WLD is up 6.42% over 24h, with a trading volume of 60.8M. MA5 crossing above MA20 maintains a bullish alignment, and RSI at 63.9 is no
