Welcome to Crypto Talk Radio, the podcast for everyday investors like you. Visit us on the web at CryptoTalkRadio.net.
Chapter 2: Is Bitcoin past its worst phase of recovery?
And now, here's your host, Leister.
Thank you for that, Bailey, and welcome everybody out there on Crypto Talk Radio, found at CryptoTalkRadio.net. Fully understand that some believe it might be a nice day for a white wedding, but I would not recommend you step outside in anything white, especially with all the red that's flowing around in cryptocurrency folks.
Chapter 3: What are the implications of Bitcoin potentially crashing to $60,000?
I want to share some thoughts. As I always do, but it's different today. It's different today because I don't even follow it.
Chapter 4: How should investors approach Bitcoin storage and protection?
And I'm kind of in and out because I'm on another path. I have a job. That's where money comes from. And it does really well. And then I got precious metals. They're doing really well. They're on recovery again. I'm not going to talk about it extensively today, only as part of the other larger conversation, but not extensively.
Chapter 5: What is the difference between DCA and other crypto investment strategies?
I will be focusing on cryptocurrency. It will not be a long episode because everything I would share you may or may not already know, but I suspect you already have inklings of a lot of it. big news i think is around the chance that bitcoin could go even lower than the 65 000 mark that's going to be i think the dominant part of my conversation
And for those, some of them that don't understand how this works, what I'm sharing is a perspective. Perspective is to be analyzed and then make your own decision about the perspective, whether you believe it's true or not, and encouraged to go and listen to other perspectives and then make up your own mind. It's one perspective that I'm entitled to make.
Chapter 6: How does China's shift away from US debt affect Bitcoin prices?
So I will make it my own way based on what I see. We're going to jump right in. We're going to have some fun. Please don't, please don't be upset. Trust me.
coinmarketcap.com and as usual you will zoom out to the month charts and we're going to start with bitcoin the reason i'm starting with bitcoin is that it is the dominant topic for today there are people out there who swear up and down that everything that we're seeing is perfectly normal and natural and part of the cycle it very well may be the case that it's normal and natural and part of the cycle but there is some chatter that what we're seeing is not over
On last week's episode, I speculated that Bitcoin could go a little bit lower before going back up again. When it started to jump and it got a little bit of a climb over the past week or so, people speculated that we were past the worst of it.
Chapter 7: What factors contribute to the current panic in the cryptocurrency market?
It got as low as like 60 something, 61,000 bucks or something. It dipped ever brief and then it rebounded back up and then it got to like 71,000 or something. And people said, okay, the worst is behind us. We're going to go back up and it's just going to take some time. That seemed to be the case, but if you look at the month chart, you see a downward trend.
Certainly you see the same thing I'm seeing to be the truth, which is a downward trend. No different than what I said last week, which was a downward trend. A lot of the recovery that we saw did not sustain largely because of some of the other factors I'm going to be discussing here momentarily, but more importantly, There is a lot of panic right now. A lot of it is panic selling.
Chapter 8: What should listeners consider for their crypto investment strategies moving forward?
A lot of people are just reacting to what they see on the charts. It's not really any fundamental problem per se. Obviously, the Clarity Act being held up in Congress, as I speculated it was going to be, has a little bit part to play in it. But there's other macro level things that you may not have been aware of.
the devaluation of the united states dollar normally should encourage some positive movement on bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies but that makes a lot of assumptions that are not panning out true and i'll be talking about some of those a little bit later on if we look at ethereum then and we zoom out to the month chart for ethereum it paints a very similar picture
that being a downward trend not an upward trend i didn't think it was going to go upward but i did notice that ethereum seems to be more stable in its downward trend than bitcoin bitcoin strikes me that
it's not past the worst of it and the selling is strong ethereum seems like the dumping which was largely idiot vidalik has stabilized and now some of the down is connected to the downward pressure of Bitcoin rather than anything fundamentally wrong with ethereum itself I can't say for sure but that's what it seems like at least on the surface as I watched it so
Big picture, I'm not going to talk about Salon and all the other ones because they're following what Bitcoin's doing. Any sort of, except for BNB, I got to be clear. BNB's price doesn't make any sense. I say it doesn't make any sense because BNB, there was a time BNB was in the double digits. Okay. And then it got to a thousand dollars.
out of nowhere when nothing else was running nearly that hot. So I suspect that BNB might be a symptom of just overarching cooling off of the asset after running sitting hot for so long. Not that anything's wrong, but just simply was overpriced. It just seemed like the prices artificially inflated. I don't know if it really was. I'm saying that's what it felt like.
Cause it didn't make any sense to see it go as high as it did. let's spin back to bitcoin and talk a little bit more about this now people are talking about the levels right the level to target is 71 000 bucks ish people are saying we're hit that that's why they were saying we're headed that way once it hits there we're going to bounce and go back up
unfortunately it seemed like a lot of rejections more than usual where people are seeing that it's not a normal sideways you know natural trend it seems like it's still a breakdown and that it's still fragile and that it's headed towards the sixty thousand dollar mark people still say that now they're still thinking that the worst is not over and we got a lot more happening with the bitcoin etfs and outflows in particular that they're watching they're speculating
that the price is targeted to go down even further some have said and i don't know the veracity look it up of these theories but some have said that this may also be trying to flush out some of those bigger holders that it's strategic that they're purposely trying to get some of those bigger holders out of their positions to kind of flush them out to right size the price of bitcoin again i can't say how true or legitimate or even logical that is
