Just a reminder that we're right in the cyclical window for BTC price to run hard. I wouldn't get too attached to any narrative as to why this is happening outside of that personally. Sell if you want, but I definitely wouldn't short it. Go reference charts from 2020 and 2016 in this same time period for reference.

I see no obvious correlation in your charts. You might as well have chosen May of 2020 in the top chart and Sept of 2016 in the bottom chart.

  • The second halving took place on July 9, 2016, reducing the block reward from 25 BTC to 12.5 BTC.
  • The third halving occurred on May 11, 2020, reducing the block reward from 12.5 BTC to 6.25 BTC.
  • Fourth Halving: April 19, 2024 (block height: 840,000, block reward: 3.125 BTC)
I chose today's date in the halving years of the prior two cycles. My point being that historically price starts to move 6-18 months after the halving. If you believe the halving is the cause of cyclical price expansion then this makes sense. Until proven wrong I tend to believe that BTC runs in 4-year cycles and thus this is a poor time to sell.

Think Eth will keep rotating with btc. Slowly getting back to where i bought in line 3 years ago foolishly from this thread. So cranky coinbase being laggy had me submit 2 buy orders and get more than i wanted.

Btc up a smidgen and wag leaning towards just cashing it now, it's such a trivial amount even if it ran for the moon itd still only be like maybe a grand and i don't have the cajones to invest in it for real and do a real wallet.
