“Bitcoin is about to print a life cross

A incredibly bullish sign for the market in a macro sense is about to print. However the actual cross itself is almost always bearish in the near term.

Note: A life cross is a when the 50-day SMA (blue) crosses up the 200-day SMA AND price action is above the 200-day SMA .

Looking left at past life crosses as shown below.

What kind of move are we likely to see? Which year is most similar to the past crosses. Honestly? Not one. Have studied each in turn, there’s no idea fractal .

However there are some clues, will share them elsewhere.. “

“Binance suspends sterling transfers following crypto crackdown

World's biggest exchange to suspend UK withdrawals amid increasing crypto scrutiny

British customers of the world's biggest cryptocurrency exchange face being unable to withdraw their money from the platform within months.

Binance has been forced to suspend withdrawals to British bank accounts following pressure from regulators on the cryptocurrency giant’s payment provider.

Paysafe said that the regulatory environment made it “too challenging” to process payments for the business and would shut it off in May.

Binance told customers this week that Paysafe would no longer handle card transactions and bank transfers in sterling from May 22. It has suspended the services for new users from Monday.

The move will effectively leave no way for customers in Britain to withdraw pounds from the platform to their bank accounts after that date, although it is understood that the companies are working on a way to keep some payments flowing.

There's no telling how low it could end up going.

I predict that the theoretical lower bound is zero or, in terms of negative profits, the total amount invested

I wouldn't be surprised if they'll have to come up with a V3 before this bear market has run its course.

BTC is currently in uncharted territory. Throughout its history, it has only ever experienced benign market conditions. It has never encountered a severe economic downturn and equities bear market. There's no telling how low it could end up going.

Call me a doubter but all the evidence you need to not take any chart seriously is on that page. I'm talking about the statement below the chart that says 'As you may have noticed: The original Bitcoin Rainbow Chart is dead! '

So the last one we said was going to happen didn't happen so here is a new one based on the data we didn't expect so take this one as gospel.

It's just ridiculous.

Folks won't desert the space until the pattern stops repeating. Ever since BTC's creation, all you had to do was buy near a bear market low and you multiplied your money 20-fold within 2-3 years. I suspect many are currently on the sidelines waiting to pile in when the current cycle bottoms out, with the expectation of it being $200k+ in a few years time. I've seen on trading forums that the dream is still there of $500k or $1m.

I know, right? What a fooking *****d

But, it still wasn't his fault. A big boy did it an ran away

"The hardest thing about this loss is - we didn’t get the chance to lose the money ourselves, it was just taken from us."

Hard to feel sympathy for someone who won't take responsibility for their own actions.

Sorry mate but I'm gonna need to see some charts with coloured lines and arrows on for me to take you seriously

The graphs only work if you talk about candles, doji, and flippity-doo-dahs

If, by summer, you mean a hot period where the post-firesale accumulated value of all crypto assets drops to $10k, then I think you're right, "summer" is also coming shortly after winter.

It would certainly be for the better if it died a death but I suspect there are far too many out there who still believe it's a road to riches.

I thought it was dead after the 2017 run-up, and subsequent collapse from $20k to $3k, but it then went up over 20-fold to nearly $70k last year.

Moral of the story: never rule out idiotic human behaviour.

[jamesbrown]

I wouldn't bet against BTC having another huge run up. The perception out there is that it's still a long-term NGU, and it's only a matter of time before crypto winter turns into summer.

Not sure where the current cycle will bottom out but $10k looks on the cards.
