Still worries me that BTC has only lived since 2009 in a QE + no inflationary environment, and there is really no data to back up how it would behave through a real recession / market crash (like 2000, 2008) or through a 1970s rate hike / inflationary environment..
I totally get your point and what you're saying was one of my main concerns with this current cycle.

My theory is that the Bitcoin ecosystem is, in part, what we call a closed-loop system. I don't know your background, so I will assume that you may not know what this is. A simple example of a…
Has the strategy, at some point in the past, ever considered, say, QQQ market breadth ? Is there such thing with Bitcoin, crypto as a whole? I understand Bitcoin is a totally different animal.

People were already so affected by the bubble deflation that has started in february 2021 that when the real index drop started in January 2022 lot of people were already massively down or close to margin call and then were…
Thanks for the update

Any thoughts on this?
