It looks like a normal day to me

[–]bessface 596 points597 points  (91 children)

Like in the good old days!

[–]Ratatablabla 323 points324 points  (83 children)

I dunno. Bought the dip - as always

[–]dormango 82 points83 points  (64 children)

What’s the difference between a dip and a falling knife?

[–]david5699 124 points125 points  (8 children)

This isn’t a falling knife. A falling knife is 66k to 16k. This is barely a dip

[–]garlichead1 11 points12 points  (2 children)

falling knife is 66k to 16k and you pay on the way down at 40k

[–]_Tux2 112 points113 points  (6 children)

One stabby other naisu 😎

[–]Ratatablabla 69 points70 points  (12 children)

Just keep buying the falling knife and youre good

[–]YoDo_GreenBackReaper 18 points19 points  (5 children)

Each dip triple your last dip

[–]dollywobbles 47 points48 points  (3 children)

Take a screenshot of each buy and keep it in a folder of dip pics.

[–]TheCryptoKeeperHodl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

‘Good buy’ and ‘good bye’

[–]BecalMerill 93 points94 points  (5 children)

It's a day ending in -day.

[–]supernormalnorm 235 points236 points  (104 children)

yup

If anything this is profit taking by the WSB degen crowd.

Long term upward trend should still continue about a week from now.

People should also realize that as we get more inflows from the ETF volatility will decrease. Fund managers with set allocations will sell/buy as the pump/dump crowd tries to manipulate the price. It's actually a good thing in the long run.

[–]manchesterthedog 220 points221 points  (26 children)

This looks like classic buy the rumor sell the news

[–]ZekeTarsim 41 points42 points  (17 children)

Exactly.

[–]Playful_Stand6721 12 points13 points  (16 children)

Why not… buy the rumor buy the news though?

[–]wkw3 40 points41 points  (2 children)

Because most people's understanding of economics consists of a series of memorized stock phrases.

[–]tirntcobain 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If you hodl both are good strategies

[–]ZekeTarsim 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not a terrible idea.

[–]trader2O 5 points6 points  (4 children)

That’s just not how it works. Buy the rumor sell the news has been around for a long time.

[–]Playful_Stand6721 9 points10 points  (3 children)

I hear people say this… and yet… If they want to ‘sell’ me their bitcoin on the news that’s fine. I’ll buy it, hold it for the next 10 years as bitcoin matures, develops, is better understood, and becomes a part of the vast majority of investment portfolios if not a full blown global reserve currency.

Then I’ll have ‘bought it’ for a lower price… and someone else will buy it for a much higher price later on.

Hasn’t this process repeated itself over and over in bitcoin’s history? If so, then why would people sell?

[–]Warrlock608 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's what I did.

[–]DesignerSea494 20 points21 points  (9 children)

That sounds plausible. I imagine there were a lot of people who always intended to sell after ETF. Initially that was my intent back in September when I bought in, but I decided a while back that either way I'm in for the long haul.

[–]StPeir 32 points33 points  (3 children)

Yeah I’m pretty sure it will stabilize and recover next week. People who bought into the “buy the rumor and sell the news” are taking profits, people who bought at the top and suffered losses yesterday are dumping for a loss.

Unfortunately it seems like BTC and related products are going to be even more violative for a few days. Hopefully things normalize and recover some next week now that the hype around ETFs dies down

[–]cryptoguerrilla 57 points58 points  (32 children)

Nothing wrong with taking profits. We can then use those profits to re-enter the market and increase our holdings at a discount while also getting some new sneakers and a fat bag of tendies

[–]Quirky_Might317 42 points43 points  (10 children)

It's a dangerous game going forward towards 2025 though. You could end up not being able to re-enter at a lower price if you land on selling at the wrong side of a big rise where things don't return on the way up to a new all time high. Many have made this mistake, then sitting and hoping it comes back down so they can re-enter only to watch it climb another 10k.

Personally, I think if you're going to play the sell and buy back strategy your chances of winning are far better selling a year and some after the halving (approx. new all time high), and then buying back following the subsequent crash.

Personally I am just happy these ETFs got approved and we aren't sitting at 30k right now. But I am curious why so many would risk selling at this time. I guess they have more balls than me.

[–]Zealousideal-Weight5 6 points7 points  (1 child)

This is exactly what I did except I'm not buying anything but the dip. Waiting to see how far it drops before I get back in with the initial investment+ profits.... Wash rinse repeat

[–]MrZZ 4962 points4963 points  (96 children)

Ceo of btc lowered the prices to make it more affordable.

You both wrong, its Blackrock paperhanding already, 1 day was too much volatility for them.

[–]Ok-Willingness1409 1105 points1106 points  (56 children)

It is also moving towards the right. I expect this trend will continue.

Thank you all for your brilliant insightful technical analysis

[–][deleted] 1688 points1689 points  (72 children)

Calm down guys, this happened because I bought yesterday.

[–]First-Willingness220 179 points180 points  (1 child)

[–]Osaze91 36 points37 points  (6 children)

No I think it was me, I managed to buy the absolute top and two seconds later the dip began.

I will fight you for the right!

Nah it was me. I fomo'd in a few thou at 48k.

BTC is now dead.

This is true. My dad works for BTC, and they are planning to lay everyone off.

[–]FitArt2452 37 points38 points  (7 children)

true, the US government controls it now. BTC is just another big stock now.

[–]arcrad 6 points7 points  (1 child)

I prefer when it moves to the left honestly. Memes are better whenever that happens.

[–]Postcard2923 360 points361 points  (15 children)

If you're invested in Bitcoin, you should be prepared for as much as a 30% swing at any time. $46k to $44k is noise.

[–]Tribetime00 510 points511 points  (44 children)

I'm buying the dip FUCK YALL

[–]FucknAright 166 points167 points  (22 children)

I'm cool if it drops another 10K or so then I'll buy the dip

[–]Ceethreepeeo 74 points75 points  (10 children)

I'm counting on it. Ppl here think btc would explode with these lame ETF's, but we know better.

2025 is where it is, and always has been, at. So gimme those dips and lets shake some paperhand newbies.

[–]pigeonwiggle 17 points18 points  (0 children)

yup, there was a big jump in 2019 and some people thought "this is it!" but it was too soon after the 2018 crash.

it's not that there's a pattern, but that people need time to A. secure liquid capital, B. forget the woes of the past, and C. see a little momentum that excites them.

this recent doubling just mirrors 2019's "it's not dead!" rally.

but it isn't the big spike.

[–]JerryLeeDog 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I approve of this. Our support is technically down near 30-33k

The resistance at 48k was expected and hit perfectly

[–]Tyler_Trash 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Shits on sale bros! Buy!

[–]Eastern_Abalone1406 338 points339 points  (14 children)

Selling news if I had to guess, remind me in 3 months

[–]SaintGloopyNoops 68 points69 points  (12 children)

Yup. Same shit. New cycle. Wait until they see the month surrounding the halving. Hoping for a pull back near 30k. We will see tho.

[–]Existing_Web_1300 23 points24 points  (8 children)

Oh boy I’d love for us to pull back that much. I’d put a nice chunk of change in around those prices.

[–]VerticalFoil 99 points100 points  (1 child)

150% up in a year and people freaking out about a lil profit taking. My goodness

[–]Shift-Hot 370 points371 points  (17 children)

When in doubt, select 3m or 1yr chart to see where we have come.

[–]SaveTheAles 185 points186 points  (8 children)

I find a 15 second window really calms my nerves...

[–]whodowhodo 33 points34 points  (4 children)

All I do is look at the amounts being sold every microsecond on 5 different exchanges. Lulls me to sleep.

Everyone panic sell!!!!!

[–]Squeezitgirdle 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Been holding since 2016, but this convinced me to sell right now.

[–]quantum_explorer08 183 points184 points  (57 children)

There are lots of dynamics at play. Just focus on the long term: ETF likely to bring more inflows over the next few years and the halving is in April which will reduce the supply. Not much more you need to know

[–]CubsThisYear 77 points78 points  (41 children)

The halving will reduce the rate of the supply increase. The supply of BTC will continue increasing for the next 100 years.

[–]DaniDaniDa 65 points66 points  (6 children)

If only someone had warned us things might be volatile for a while.

[–]MPH2025 24 points25 points  (2 children)

I see buying opportunities.

[–]superradguy 197 points198 points  (22 children)

This isn’t even a 5% price movement, everyone needs to grow a pair of balls. Chill children

[–]ThiefClashRoyale 63 points64 points  (4 children)

Same story that destroys the noobs profits every time. They buy then 2 days later sell at a loss in a panic and the whales scoop up their coins. You cannot help these people. Just accept they will always lose.

[–]forgotmypassword4714 13 points14 points  (3 children)

You should see how people react to 1-5% swings on /biz/. Never seen the words "pump" and "dump" misused so often. Must be a lot of new people in the game.

Edit: spelling.

[–]Forexisboring 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Overleveraged bitches say wha?

[–]FatterWildcatter 68 points69 points  (10 children)

Turn your screen upside down, problem solved.

[–]StonksPeasant 41 points42 points  (6 children)

Its over. The ETFs killed it. Time to wrap it up and go home.

There are regularly dips as much as 50% during past bull markets. This is nothing to worry about

[–]p4ttl1992 14 points15 points  (1 child)

Bitcoin go up Bitcoin go down

Sometimes maybe good Sometimes maybe shit

[–]cunth 11 points12 points  (1 child)

Oh no! It looks like we've retraced back to *checks notes* the price of BTC 4 days ago

Grayscale selling

[–]JerryLeeDog 33 points34 points  (6 children)

Exactly what it looked like it was going to do;

Hit the resistance at ~48k and drop to build more market structure

Our support is technically down near $30-33k. I could only dream it gets that low...

[–]Suitable-Dingo-8911 56 points57 points  (22 children)

I wouldn’t hate if bitcoin nuked to 20k, all these new bitcoiners would gain an appreciation for it and I could double up my bag again

[–]irisuniverse 27 points28 points  (9 children)

I’d drain my 401k if we went to $20k

[–]MrBigDickPickledRick 11 points12 points  (6 children)

And to think it was at 20k last year this time, wish I would've bought more than I have now. Won't make that same mistake again

[–]rodmandirect 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I will be making all new mistakes myself.

[–]PashaBiceps__ 17 points18 points  (0 children)

it's been 12 days since 2024 and we are still not millionaires. so people are giving up.

The market has been driven up in the last few months in anticipation of the EFT - the ETF is here - the profits are being realized...

China banned bitcoin again?

[–]aChillLad 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Oh no, it’s sunk to levels not seen for… 11 days

[–]Bongressman 34 points35 points  (6 children)

Priced in. Retracing before the halving. This always happens. Every. Single. Time. We will see the 30s again. Post halving, we will go on another run the second half of the year.

Keep stacking.

[–]Ceethreepeeo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

2025 has always been the goal. I'm counting on another big dip, and I'll be ready to buy.

[–]BlackOutEfficiency 12 points13 points  (2 children)

Welcome to Wallstreet manipulation. Now that there is an ETF. They can buy Bitcoin on the exchanges. Short Bitcoin ETF then dump Bitcoin on the exchange. It's a free money machine.

[–]Zealousideal-Weight5 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Exactly, all the ETF did was make it easier for Wall Street to manipulate the crypto market like they have been manipulating and shorting the stock market. Congrats 👏 Wall Street is now all in on the game & manipulation

[–]dollhousemassacre 5 points6 points  (0 children)

[–]unlmtdLoL 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I’m buying in at $120 personally.

[–]TomSurman 27 points28 points  (1 child)

I'm gonna wait until 8k to buy back in. Unless it actually gets to 8k, in which case I'll be too scared to buy in, so I'll wait for 4k.

[–]Joshhagan6 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That’s exactly what I said when it went back down to 16k. 20k was my all in price, then 16k hit and I was like “nah it’s going way lower”. Never bought in and here we are.

Correction because big boys fix the profits after overexcitement about ETFs approval. There are no fundamental reasons why bitcoin should drop. Bull market will start soon.

gensler talking shit about bitcoin on cnbc earlier today

[–]Agreeable-Split1829 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I feel like you might be new OP, so here is something to know about crypto:

Going up or down ~10% in 1 day is something normal in crypto.

Going up or down ~30% in 1 week is also normal in crypto.

When people say the crypto market is highly volatile, this is what is mean by that. If you believe in the asset, have done your due dilligence, have compared with other assets, understand the crypto market, have a basic understanding & experience in the crypto market, invest what you are willing to lose, and have a plan. You'll be fine

[–]Dramatic_Journalist4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People are pumping and dumping. It all comes back to the approval of the ETFs. The thinking behind it is new capital would come in and raise the price. As people take profits off the table, the price goes down.

[–]k1mbalam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mooning through the earth I guess… don’t care never selling

[–]best_crypto_to_buy 3 points4 points  (2 children)

You know, if everyone would just buy and set a limit sale at a higher price, the price would only go up. But, Everyone would have to do it.

[–]Fickle-Carpenter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To me it looks like the price of a singular bitcoin is decrasing or at least has decreased in the past 2hrs

[–]losaces 2 points3 points  (1 child)

The good news is Jim Cramer is probably saying sell

[–]Rawchains 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Found the ETF guy!

[–]EarningsPal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Why worry now?

BTC preformed well and was worth holding without the ETF approval. Now 11 ETF need BTC supply.

A new amount of BTC must now sit in these funds, worldwide.

Now retirement accounts, tax free money, can sit in BTC. The amount of new money that could never have gone into BTC can not go into BTC without having to learn anything.

The whales sold and got they money back. Then they gone rebuy it again at a lower price 🤷

It’s just the name of the game not everyone is holding til it reaches a million.

Right now they prob profited or broke even, and buying the dip while yall are holding on wondering what’s happening.

Well, it will be good for us to own Bitcoin, but like allot of people are saying, Bitcoin reaching 1,500,000 by 2030, we'll have way worse problems, like the economy being completely fucked. That's what the news is saying. I don't know man, trade on.

What was supposed to happen. The crash after the ETF launch
