Could there be merit in the recent bull market expectations?

These last few days ive been seeing a lot of crypto-analysts talk of upward movement in the market.
I wouldnt call myself some that is well versed in Elliot waves or Fibonacci but i do hold that the market moves in cycles that can be anticipated to a degree in the log run.
I dont believe you can pin-point the exact moment of the shift to a high degree of success, but a general guess as to when it “might” happen, i think is possible.

What i like about the news these last few days is the “feeling” that things might shift. As much as im not someone that will bash something that i dont understand to the highest degree, i still think that when we are talking about long term upward movement happening, “general sentiment” is king here.
All these analysis might be self-fulfilling prophecies (i dont believe they are) since they could very well be acting as the trigger needed to turn the market around.

For those reasons there are only a small number of folks whose analysis i take at least somewhat seriously on STEEM. Most of them are using @timm. (https://mentormarket.io/)
Guys like Haejin give market analysts a bad name so many folks i know avoid them, but i can say that there are some great insight to be found on TIMM.
Just a short disclaimer: Not everything is straight forward and some folks do make some generic price predictions, but once they think they are on to something you can tell right away.

Let me know what you think. Is there merit in all this talk?

Ill see you around.

STEEM: Imagine…

Do you remember the glorious days of early January 2018?

Yes, those days when the market was at its ATH…

Those days on which BITCOIN was priced more than 16000 USD, ETH 1100 USD and EOS 12 USD?

At that time STEEM was placed, at the 36th position of the Total Market Cap.

The price was 6.41 USD and the Market Cap was 1.58 B$…and that was not the maximum price achieved by STEEM since it touched the 9 USD mark…

BITCOIN had 276 b$, 174 times more than the STEEM Market Cap at that time.

What a craziness, isn’t it?

Do you think those times

Time to buy Platinum?

Silver is a good buy. Gold is always a good buy – even at ATH (much like Bitcoin really). But what about the other precious silver metal – isn’t it maybe a good time to buy Platinum?

Platinum is unpopular at the moment, that’s no secret.

Bearing in mind what I have just said – I’m going to drop in a quote:

“Be fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful.”

~Bitcoin hater Buffett (He may not know crypto – but he does understand market herd mentality)

In other words: go out and buy Platinum now. End of post. Goodbye. See

Bitcoin and EOS Analysis: QUICK UPDATE

Bitcoin has been unable to break above the $4,000 resistance (Coinbase). Volume ’s dropped off slightly, which was expected. Price is currently trading round $3,900. it looks like we may see one more attempt to breach $4,000. If that fails, I’m expecting a drop back at least $3,800. EOS has been impressive these past few…

Bitcoin and EOS Analysis: QUICK UPDATE

Bitcoin has been unable to break above the $4,000 resistance (Coinbase). Volume ’s dropped off slightly, which was expected. Price is currently trading round $3,900. it looks like we may see one more attempt to breach $4,000. If that fails, I’m expecting a drop back at least $3,800.

EOS has been impressive these past few days. Bulls attempted to decisively break above $4.00, but the bears have fought them off so far. I’m expecting another attempt to break above $4.00. If that fails, we could see a drop to at least $3.60.

Crypto Adoption Is Gaining Steam with Samsung Annoucement

The reason I decided to hold a good chunk of my crypto for the long-term was for the specific reason of adoption.
Just a fraction of society is involved in crypto.  The functionality of it, though better each day is still too difficult for the regular Joe.
Think about that.
Will things stay like this forever?  Most likely no.
The Perpetuation of Adoption
As the old saying goes. Rome was not built in a day.
This holds true for any new technology or game changer.
The internet took time to spread.  Took time to improve and become user friendly.
Think about it.  In 1990 if you were to

Veni, vidi, vici

I was going to use a chart for this, but then I thought: “what for?”

We all know the recent antics of BTC: It took off a little under a week ago and generated an unusually high amount of interest.

Volume shot up and “bull market” comments flooded the social media platforms. BTC succeeded in clawing its way back to global financial relevance. In short: it conquered.

But every empire falls.

So as not to push this analogy too far, I’ll forego the Roman references from this point onward.

The volume rise was unprecedented and I for one was not expecting to see BTC

Crypto Shopping Cart – 20 February

Guess who’s been crypto shopping again! No question mark there, that was clearly rhetorical.

I started blogging in mid-March last year, not too long after the beginning of crypto’s biggest ever bear market. For this reason, I’ve done very little cryptocurrency buying since I’ve become a blogger. It’s a pity that you didn’t know of my exploits before then – I was a voracious trader (who probably ended up spending way more than what could be considered wise on transaction fees). With a change now happening in the markets, I’m now using myself as a metric. That sounds weird but bear

Evidence Smart Money Crypto Infrastructure Is Being Built

I have been talking for quite some that that the pipelines from Wall Street to the Crypto space is being built. I have been talking for quite some time that the Smart Money is gear up to put $2 trillion to work in the Crypto space. Here is yet another example of the Smart Money coming to a Crypto near you.

Stock exchange operator Nasdaq is adding indices for bitcoin and ethereum to its global data service later this month. The company announced Monday that it has partnered with New Zealand-based blockchain data and research firm Brave New Coin to offer information on
