Do you actively trade crypto or just Hodl?
What are your thoughts on hodling ETH and XRP?
Great advice thanks !!
This is good information regardless if you are new into crypto or been here fur awhile . I have Monad and will trade it and when I make a profit will put it in BTC
Hello, bro and sis
BIGG! Walmart will integrate $GRO63K$ with their systems
Michael Saylor just officially loaded up $GRO63K$ in his portfolio
Stock ATH, Gold ATH Next would be BTC and $GRO63K$
Jim Cramer is super bullish with $GRO63K$
I cleaned up my portfolio only holding BTC, ETH and $GRO63K$ left
$GRO63K$ is my safest bet, those altcoins may fall but this one can’t
$GRO63K$ ETF soon? WOW
Hey bro, pls guide us with $GRO63K$
Amazon will integrate $GRO63K$ to their chains. Is this uptrend?
Stacking $GRO63K$ at $1, Binance rumor got me sleepless
Thanks for the video! Please tell me whats you think about $GRO63K$ presale.
manual trading was hard during volatility, Sertexity made decision process faster and more structured for me
Blabla
Excellent advice!
From my observation and historical market pattern, there might be a bit of turbulence in the market coming up, but here's the deal: Trying to guess what's going to happen next is less important than spreading your bets when trading and thinking long term. It's not about guessing the market's next move; it's about playing it smart and steady…I managed to grow a Portfolio of around 100k to a decent 780k in the space of a few months.Thanks again, Coach.,Julia,Leung for the regular updates.
❤❤
Great explanation and hopefully will help manage this cycle!
The four year cycle is over. It went down because the people are committed to that time line. Now that the four year cycle people are done selling the bottom the bull market will resume. Its more based on the buiness cycle that has been delayed because of trade negotiations and the fed playing politics not lowering the rates fast enough. The boom is coming soon. Everything is comming together…managed to grow a nest egg of around 100k to a decent 932k in the space of a few months. Thanks again, Elyse Charlot Barker , for the regular updates,
I totally agree with what you are saying, Bitcoin is on its way up, showing that it's gaining more value and could go even higher than we've seen before. This could mean great things for people looking to invest, suggesting now might be a good time to get involved before it jumps even higher. It's an exciting moment that could change the game in general…managed to grow a nest egg of around 85k to a decent 932k in the space of a few months. Thanks again, Elyse Charlot Barker , for the regular updates
Most traders lose money ! Over long times. Best advice is you probably should not do it.
Make your VDOs less than 10mins and you'll hit 1million view. You're very very overly Wordy
Youtube needs to do something about all these damn bots. It's ridiculous.
Thanks VB
you made me big loss u told eth btc will not go lower
Thoughts on AXELAR 2027?🚀
My life completely turned around after joining this channel. Glory be to God. I just turned 52 today, and I have reached $370K.Two years ago, I was sleeping in a basement apartment with zero savings and mounting debt. I stopped chasing 'get rich quick' schemes and started focusing on risk management and developing one solid edge. Today, I have achieved my 2026 financial goal. It's not about where you start, it's about trusting the process." 💯📈
Wee ddidn´t always agree……. I sense a good heart here tho! <3
Sp500 has averaged 11-12% avg past 40 years and currently making new ATH's. Bitcoin CAGR since 2021 ATH to 2025 ATH was 16% pre-taxes. Much more volatility and Risk. Not worth the investment.
Excellent framework.
The key lesson for me is: regime first, coin second.
Bitcoin can be treated as the strategic core, while altcoins should be tactical trades with clear targets, deadlines and exits.
Too many traders search for the next 100x before asking whether the market is even rewarding risk.
Solana
Hey VB, Breaking news guys: Bonk Coin is in a trademark dispute in Europe. Check the trademark database in the EU.
Blah blah blah, Your Full of IT!
past 4 years you’re wrong more than right
Thank you, Dennis! You’ve talk me a lot! This is a masterclass! I think my biggest mistake, beside holding alts into bear smh, I bought alts across narratives as a diversification strategy and now I know that to be false. I’d be happy with 10 BTC, but I’m like double your age and don’t have your timeline to accumulate. ❤
Mac Donald’s dude working at Mac Donald’s 😂😂😂
38:44 No . China cannot make a popular Digital currency.
It's contradictory.
China controls everything.
No one wants a controlled currency
Limit order is asking for trouble even in DEX because contractual can be hacked.
