At this point I'm hoping for some kind of dip. I'm putting a steady amount each paycheck but I have a large chunk I want to put in but I'm not doing it at a peak.

idk what to tell you m8....that's a tough spot at current prices....but I'll just say that BlackRock is buying and Saylor is about to put another $900million into it...I'm not sure you buying at $50k vs $45k will make a giant difference to your account long-term...and I'm not sure we see a giant correction down to $20k for a while (though some charts do show that as a possibility once BTC touches $60-$65k).

i may be off base, as im new to any type of investing......i look at this as rate or multiplication (how many times will my money multiply). Obviously price predictions are just that.....maybe educated guesses at best. there are no guarantees. I dont have a lot of money to invest so my goal is to put it where it will see the biggest return. On average i see predictions around: Bitcoin (400 to 500k tops), ETH (25k up) and cardano maybe around $10. Many of these predictions are saying this bullrun for these numbers. So with BTC now at 50k, thats 8-10x. ETH would be around 15x and cardano around 10-12x. So i would think that i would see biggest return from ETH. so i have the majority of my money in eth. what im not sure about is the timing for each to maximize my profits. it seems that eth follows btc for the most part. Many predictors say the bullrun will end around august give or take (sell for good profit), then see a 70-90% drop (then rebuy more) then we will see another bullrun at some point.

Do you guys agree wtih having some in all three of these cryptos? I like ada longterm more than eth but i feel this bullrun eth will make me more. I put like $200 into bitcoin not too long ago, and i feel it may make more in eth. or this bullrun may produce the same gains. i feel good about all 3 of these cryptos. any stimulus money the govt decides to give me will be going into one of these 3 as well.

I'm majority in BTC (80%btc 20% Alts) as i think it is the longterm winner that wont eventually go back to Zero in my or my children's lifetimes...but yes, def put some money into Alts b/c when they move, THEY MOVE

I purposely selected bitcoin, ethereum and cardano as the 3 to invest in because of their foundation and long term capabilities. not saying that polkadot, litecoin, xlm etc wont be successful, just from everything i read or watch/hear those 3 are the top in this category. They are also built for longterm sustainability. i dont think there is any reason to think that these three will not be still standing in 50 or 100 years. Im mostly looking at this short term. how to maximize my investment the fastest. I feel very good about coming out of this making a lot of money. Maybe not like buying btc for $100 a coin and still holding today, but possibly the best return ill ever see in my lifetime.

is it safe to hold my crypto in kraken and webull exchanges long term?

At this rate were looking at a small quick dip into the mid 70 thousands range, in the early winter/spring of 2024

With Webull, you don't actually OWN the crypto that is in your account...You can't transfer the coins to your own self-custody wallet, so it's not at risk for theft (that I know off).

Kraken might have some sort of FDIC insurance type policy in place, but you'd have to check their terms, i don't use them.

There is a saying in crypto...Not your Keys, Not your Coins. If you don't actually HOLD the keys yourself, then you are at risk.

You can make fun if you want. But if I know one thing for certain, it's that the US government doesn't like to not have control over a large movement of money.
The longer they wait the harder it will be. Are they going to try to ban it once it hits 5 trillion dollars? At that point it would be too damaging to the economy. Plus by then many politicians will be balls deep into cryptos. Some are probably already getting in on the action.

Crypto transactions are recorded and public on the blockchain. You can follow the transactions everywhere it goes. Much harder to do with cash.

I'm in the green... but more and more ir feels like "conditioning" or a "psyop" to get people to think dollars are worthless"

Also while I've been impressed by Michael saylor... digging into microstrategies financials makes it seem like this was a hail mary, same for Tesla.

Lol that purchasing power chart is misleading as F!

Compare it to purchasing power for ANYTHING technology related. T.V., DVD, BLU RAY, smart phones, cell phones in general, computers, laptops, hell.. coffee makers.

Still holding btc and eth... just gonna scale back 1/3rd.

I use it and I agree, there is not an easy way to track profits on individual coins. I also use Binance, Kraken and Bybit. None of them are perfect. Biggest grip I have with coinbase is that they don't have that many coins.
