In last month’s post, Define “Winning” in Crypto, I talked about mindset and framing your viewpoint. It’s as important as any trading or investment plan, especially now. In this month’s post, I look at where the money’s coming from, where it’s going, and why political parties won’t get you what you want (and may make everything worse). In March, two subscribers messaged me to cancel. They made so much on crypto that they didn’t need the newsletter anymore. Basically, “thanks for help, now hit...

In last month’s post, I addressed some misconceptions about where we stand in the “market cycle” (however you define it) and what you need to think about now. This month, I look at Wall Street’s first steps into crypto and why you should care (and not for the reasons you might think). The United States has the world’s most advanced, robust, and sophisticated financial system. It is so advanced, robust, and sophisticated that its government, businesses, and citizens spend many billions of doll...

In last month’s post, Steady Hands, Clear Mind, I looked at the importance of sticking to a plan, preparing for market fluctuations, and focusing on long-term wealth accumulation despite the uncertainty and unpredictability of the crypto market. In this month’s post, I delve into mindset and framing your viewpoint. It’s as important as any trading or investment plan, especially now. On May 14, 2024, I told people to close out the trade from February 14, 2024. If you took that trade, you made ...

In last month’s post, I looked at Wall Street’s first steps into crypto and why you should care (and not for the reasons you might think). In this month’s issue, I share some concerns nobody else seems to care about.Earlier this month, I posted three ways to prepare for the halving. https://cryptoiseasy.beehiiv.com/p/three-ways-prepare-bitcoins-halving In that post, I said to take your time while the market is quiet and fees are cheap.

In last month’s post, Larry’s Laughing, I shared concerns nobody else seems to care about. In this month’s issue, I talk about the disconnect between what people tell you and what the facts say. With Bitcoin’s pre-having boom, some experts say the data models are broken, the cycle theories are no longer valid, and we’re living in a new paradigm. Bitcoin’s price is supposed to reach all-time highs after halving, not before it. According to the U2R model, Bitcoin’s price is right where it shoul...

Donald Trump was no fan of Bitcoin or cryptocurrencies in 2019. https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1149472282584072192 In 2021, he called it a scam. In 2024, he’s all for it. What changed? He figured out how to make money off of it. In this case, people paid for his sneakers with crypto. We can’t ban it anymore. But that’s not all! Remember his NFTs? Or his personal bag of Ethereum that he picked up last year? If money wasn't enough to get him on the bandwagon, now he can get vot...

In the face of failed US bond auctions, a looming collapse in commercial real estate, and persistently high interest rates, Bitcoin’s price is up more than 100% in 2023. Some altcoins rose 1,000% or more so far this year. The entire crypto market cap has doubled.At this rate, you may only have a little more time to turn $100 into $1 million with cryptocurrency. In January 2023, Billy the Neighbor ditched his trading career for his old day job but he’ll be back after bitcoin’s price hits a new...

Crypto’s largest exchange just got hit with $4 billion in fines. Its CEO resigned. Rumors are swirling that the largest stablecoin, a crypto version of the US dollar, will collapse under US regulatory scrutiny. Every major US crypto entity is getting sued by investors, users, or the US government. Bitcoin’s price is up 126% this year. The bear market warriors claim validation. The OGs chant “victory!” The bull market champions call for new all-time highs. They all expect crypto will go on an ...

In last month’s post, I discussed the fundamental reason we’re in this market and the difference between financial freedom and financial liberty.

We may remember 2023 as the year the US lost crypto. https://twitter.com/twobitidiot/status/1730371915305402551 The government shut down crypto-friendly banks, seized a crypto-compatible payment network, sued a bunch of crypto businesses, neutered the largest crypto exchange, and forced crypto entrepreneurs to flee for other countries. Some think they can make up for it by approving a spot Bitcoin ETF. That ETF doesn’t do anything for crypto. It’s simply a way for Wall Street to make money of...
