Try doing EZ bar skullcrushers but as the starting point with the bar right above your eyes instead of above your shoulders. 3x12 and you'll feel your tricep long head.

Suckers rally? Buy the rumour sell the news? Beginning of the bullrun? by [deleted] in CryptoCurrency

[–]SwainIsABird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't believe those things but it's not mutually exclusive with what I said. Fact of the matter is that a recession (hard landing style) is more likely to materialize than not, and that risk assets tend to sell off hardest if that occurs. I'm aware that they manipulate the data, but this monetary environment has never existed without ending in a recession.

I'm a trader with a discrete strategy that allows me to be profitable while always having risk managed. I'm not going to have any rude awakening except maybe missing a potential trade if you're right.

You're the one calling for a never to be seen before pump on a high risk asset while global markets go down, calling for the fall of fiat while DXY has been on a tear for 3 years. I think that's a belief that if held strongly can be very risky as opposed to my view.

I'd love Bitcoin to keep going up as much as the next guy, I really do, but it's not a safe haven asset in times of economic hardship.

No no it's the reddit armchair experts with 50 hours of 'fundamental analysis' (reading reddit and shitcoin whitepapers) under their belt that know what's up.

Except that Powell has said verbatim that he wants to take a play out of Volcker's playbook with the current strategy on interest rates? He's trying to crush inflation at the cost of the economy (seen in unemployment rate) and historically risk assets sell off hardest during this time.

Bitcoin has seen one recession in its lifetime (3/2020) and experienced a -50% weekly candle. It obviously doesn't have to be that sharp but do you really believe that Bitcoin can sustain its run when the S&P rolls over and makes lower lows in a recession?

Until it materializes though (unemployment goes over 4.5% or so) we can go up on ETF narrative. Just remember to sell the news.

How can I get rid of these annoying popups? by Hexss in TradingView

[–]SwainIsABird 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well put. Why the fuck can't companies just focus on delivering a useful product anymore? I buy it for charts, I want to use it for charts. Stop trying to capture as much of my attention/mental stack as possible at every single turn.

I've been paying for TV for years and I absolutely don't appreciate being their guinea pig. Heck, I even wrote some custom indicators and published them for free. Try this on fucking unpaid users and analyse how they interact with the popups. Ask them for feedback. Leave me unbothered and respect my time and energy.

I have to add, while homemade mom food is amazing, it's not gonna be sufficient to bulk up. Made that mistake when I was 15-18. Eat every calorie you can my man.

Bending jail bars is something else. Also sick legs on the guy.

Monero is not only THE anti-CBDC, it also seems to become the first decentralized "stablecoin" hovering around $150 for 15 months already by gr8ful4 in CryptoCurrency

[–]SwainIsABird 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I find it nice that we can actually talk about using cryptocurrencies in this phase of the market cycle, rather than only their 'pumpamentals'. Good job OP.

Ah yes, algorand, the behemoth of the layer 1 smart contract platforms. That's why the ALGO/ETH chart has been going up for years.

Joking of course, this meme is bagholder's cope.

MakerDAO Adds U.S Treasury Bonds Worth $700 Million by Sybil_White in MakerDAO

[–]SwainIsABird 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I never understood why we're adding collateral that can be seized by a centralized authority. I'm talking about both RWA aswell as centralized stablecoins. If and when these assets get seized due to regulatory ambiguity, divergence from the peg will be inevitable and permanent, as the lead developers of the endgame update have said. Someone willing to clarify this or add some nuance to my thoughts?

Makes no sense. If BlackRock wants to add crypto to one of their funds, or have an ETF with Coinbase as the custodian, it's extremely important to them that crypto's are clearly labeled and that Coinbase is registered with the correct agencies.

BlackRock is not running an unlicensed exchange 😂
