Should you start investing mid cycle?

What’s your gameplan with your current crypto portfolio? Reply back, I wanna know.

• Are you still dollar cost averaging into BTC and/or ETH regularly?
• Are you buying the dips? with limit orders?
• Are you buying alt coins?
• Are you fully allocated, locked, loaded and waiting?

I had a conversation with someone this week who’s new to crypto and wanted to start investing in size. It’s tricky to advise a course of action at this stage of the cycle. Now we’re buying in a boom!

When BTC breaks out of all time highs and starts climbing into high 70k’s and 80k’s we’ve officially reached the halfway point in the bull market. Now all thats left is to find the top and set a price record which will hodl for the next 4 years.

“The Cycle” Update

Well… So much for that “double top” I pointed out last week. All it takes is one wild political news event to reverse course in a flash. Will be interesting to see how a potential ETH ETF impacts things here, and how the election could play into my prediction for when we’ll break into uncharted territory.

What I’m reading, watching, sharing and keeping an eye on in crypto recently.

From the BitLift Discord:

@GERBZ: Chicken or egg? Bad day for DeFi. But at least the loan saga is over

@tjt2005: Well looks like the SEC will be drastically changing very soon. Gary Gensler is undoubtedly polishing up his resume

@charlesnag22: Mmmhu. That’s why XRP, LUNC, and other crypto communities expressed disdain and mocked him for asking people to submit a tip or complaint to the agency despite regulatory overreach concerns.

@GERBZ: @428580 I read your email on it... However, I like this take on it:

TON: NOT Right Now | Blockworks Research

We acknowledge TON’s highly unique distribution relationship with Telegram, Telegram’s ambitions as a super app and developer platform rivaling the scale of WeChat as a TON growth driver, and the TON chain’s relatively high scale and speed versus popular EVM chains today. However, we believe the TON ecosystem is at a very early stage, its native smart contract language may be prohibitive to attracting meaningful developer activity, and that Telegram’s distribution is overstated and its viability as a developer platform and super app is far more challenged than the market appreciates.
