Trend that turned into a fad, that might be back into a trend?

That's been the story of BTC for a decade now. Flies up, crashes, flies up to new highs, crashes, rinse, repeat.

The last month or so has been hectic. If you saw my charts & graphs prediction in the other thread, you know I'm getting ready for an upcoming bear market and possible retrace to, or even below, $5k BTC. If this happens, it will crush many of the alt-coins that are already down very big from All Time Highs (ATH). There are many who feel we haven't had full capitulation yet in the market and we won't rebound until that time happens. As such, I've moved some of my funds out of crypto and am waiting to potentially get back in on some big dips. I could be totally wrong of course. I still have a lot of funds in crypto, in a few of my favorite alts and such even though they are down, but I have admittedly diversified a bit away from crypto and have liquidated some of my alts that I wasn't 100% behind. Tread carefully out there and best of luck to all. Remember, never put more $$$ into crypto than you can afford to 100% lose.
