Why BITCOIN NEW ALL TIME HIGH Changes EVERYTHING!

Currencies / Bitcoin Nov 22, 2021 - 04:02 PM GMT

By: Nadeem_Walayat

Currencies

Crypto Portfolio Current State

So far the crypto markets have managed to dodge the black swan bullets and so I hold ZERO of the two largest market cap crypto's, Bitcoin and Ethereum. Instead what had fallen to deep discounts have been the Alt coins, though again not to the extent where I would have piled in head first hoovering up huge amounts of crypto's as the current state of my crypto portfolio illustrates where even the crypto I have been banging on about all year Ravencoin is just scratching the surface at about 12% of my target holding, the table lists crypto's in order of my target $ position size.


Overall just over 10% of my target funds have been invested when by now I would have expected to be about 50% invested as I basically let the limit orders do their work accumulating on the few and far between price spikes lower, gradually raising the limits over time.

The primary purpose of the bear market was to accumulate into where the greater the deviation from the high then the greater the buying opportunity presented. So since I bought diddly squat of BTC and ETH does that now mean I have missed the next crypto bull market boat? HELL NO!

In fact I am content that I don't hold any bitcoin. Why? Because I see it as basically dead money. In the midst of the bear market the most I could imagine BTC reaching during the next mania was doubling to a high of about $130k, and even then I would probably have planned to have exited at around $100k, which is why I sought a repeat of past bear markets so BTC could then deliver a target X5 return in exchange for the risk of falling to under $10k. However crypto's that did fall harder and further than either BTC and ETH were the ALT coins that saw huge deviations form their highs and thus truly allowed one to fantasise about achieving X10 returns.

Now with Bitcoin having traded to a NEW all time amounts to a switch being flipped on the crypto markets, effectively acting as a wake up call, a slap on the back of my head to switch strategy as the bear accumulation phase is OVER. It's time to bite the bullet and start buying at the market especially in those select few alt cons still trading at a significant discount to their highs as indicated in my table above.

The crypto bear market i.e. deviations form the previous bull market highs form the outset was to accumulate into so as to sell into the next mania peak at many multiples of the previous highs. So if one buys significantly BELOW the previous highs then that's job done! Sit back and let the next mania do it's work.

The BITCOIN NEW ALL TIME HIGH Changes EVERYTHING!

1. bitcoin leads the alt coins that will follow in no more than a couple of months or likely several weeks later, i.e. retail money first flows into BITCOIN sending it's price soaring as is taking place today with very few alt coins joining Bitcoin in the rush to new all time highs.

2. The longer the bitcoin rush to highs goes on the more retail investor funds start seeping into the alt coins and thus they begin their their bull runs to many times their previous highs, given the weight of capital seeking home in relatively small market cap markets.

3. Then Bitcoin peaks and trades along it's highs as the Alt coins start to soar into the stratosphere as money LEAVES bitcoin and goes into the alt coins, which then start to soar to well beyond their previous highs as Alt coin mania takes hold.

That is what happened last time! And that's what I expect to happen during the next great crypto bull market.

For instance this is what Bitcoin did when it last broke to a new all time high. With the ALT coins typically starting to embark on their parabolic runs some 1 to 2 months later!

So understand this I / we have missed NOTHING! For we are at the very beginning\s of the next crypto bull market that 'should' see the Alt's trade at many multiples of their previous bull market highs. There is huge upside to the $2 trillion crypto market, for instance APPLE has a greater market cap than the whole of the crypto universe which illustrates the potential for where the crypto's could be trading upto in 5 to 6 months time.
