What is this…..a correction for ant!?
[13]
Yes Bitcoin finally corrected yesterday after straight up parabolic movements since the
[18]
middle of the December.
[20]
Is Bitcoin going to HODL above 30k and continue the run??
[24]
Well strap in, take notes, and listen hard.
[26]
We’re going to try to answer that question & more, because it’s time for Chico Crypto!
[34]
It’s hard to imagine, only 2 weeks ago, I still had long hair and was cutting on the
[41]
live stream when BTC officially cracked 20k.
[45]
And today,even with the correction, we have pushed back above 30k but the recent run peak
[50]
was about 35k...remember, I’m growing out this beard until 100k, so we got to 35 percent
[57]
of the way there into just the 1st week of 2021.
[61]
If BTC continues at this rate, I’ll be shaving my bear by mid year!!!!
[66]
But, if we look at the past, and the run which happened in 2017….
[71]
Bitcoin may be due for a bigger correction.
[76]
So back in early December 2016 to early January, Bitcoin had a very very similar pump, percentage
[83]
wise.
[84]
As we can see, the price went from about 750 buck to getting near 1200, its previous all
[91]
time high set in the last run 2013/2014.
[95]
This was a percentage increase of about 60 percent.
[99]
This run, from the same exact date December 8th to January 4th, pumped from about 19200
[107]
to an officially daily close of about 33 thousand.
[111]
A percentage increase of about 71 percent.
[115]
Why so similar!??
[116]
Now as we can see back in january 2017, after January 4th a correction came...kind of like
[123]
what we are experiencing.
[126]
Now let’s expand it out about a week, the 2017 chart….Bitcoin dipped to just above
[131]
where it started, about 780 bucks….
[137]
If things stay the same, this means we have a bigger correction coming, that could last
[141]
up to a week & take Bitcoin down to the low 20ks.
[145]
So do I think this is going to happen!?
[147]
Eventually yes as you have to understand who is running the leverage game nowadays.
[152]
It used to be BitMEX, but since they got hit & hit hard by regulators, Binance is now the
[158]
#1…
[160]
And yesterday, from that drop, they racked up over 190 million dollars notional value
[165]
in long liquidations in just 10 minuets.
[169]
A sweet payday, and it will be even more... if more rugs are pulled?
[174]
Why.
[175]
Well look at the chart, from the 14th to yesterday, there is so much opportunity to liquidate
[181]
those who have gone LONG, At 30k, 26k, shoot even at 22k.
[187]
But it may not happen, as there may be more money to be made with shorts...yesterday through
[196]
today, the big exchanges and whales are seeing how this correction plays out...as going to
[202]
bybt.com and it’s liquidations data, we can see over 24 hours yesterday, there was
[208]
still over 110 million in short liquidations.
[212]
Just on that tiny little rebound back above 30k..
[215]
So what do I think, if I had to guess??
[218]
What’s going to happen in the next week?
[220]
Well the opportunity to pull of a final #reckoning, before turning full on bullish for the year
[226]
is closing in...and if you pull out the liquidations charts, you can see, there isn’t billion
[233]
of dollars worth going short across leverage exchange like there is going long...or we
[238]
would see a red bar being just as big as those green bars, on the way up to 30k.
[243]
You don’t, because people aren’t crazy shorting Bitcoin at the beginning of bullish
[249]
cycles…..
[250]
I mean just look at the stock market!?
[252]
There is profit taking happening in every asset after an insane year….this kind of
[259]
pump and then early January cooloff happens every year with stonks and then it usually….
[265]
drifts into BTC, we know it happened in December 2016, to Janauary 2017, it then happened December
[272]
2017 to Janauary 2018, also in December 2018 to January 2019, the only year it didn’t
[279]
do it...December 2019 to January 2020, last year….3 out of the 4 years, we have dove
[286]
in early January...
[288]
So that means yes, I do think another correction is coming, the bounce yesterday, was just
[293]
that...a dead cat bounce, to sucker in a few more longers before we crash again, it could
[299]
of happened already...it could still come, I might be completely wrong...that’s why
[304]
I don’t leverage trade..
[306]
But Damn Chico Why you so bearish!?
[309]
Well I’m not….
[310]
I hodl, because if things are to be the same, it doesn’t matter if a big correction comes
[316]
like 2017...expanding out the chart after the crash, in January 2017, bitcoin rebounded...and
[324]
then...many of you remember you were apart of this run, bitcoin went parabolic throughout
[329]
2017, on the way to the peak at the end of the year, and the fall back earlier in the
[335]
year, you can barely see it on the chart.
[340]
Soooo, opportunities are abundant in the crypto markets.
[344]
Of course, like my video showed yesterday, Ethereum & it’s DeFi ecosystem, is the most
[350]
used, and nothing else compass...thus its a focus of mine but there is an issue, aka
[356]
scaling aka gas fees, aka making most dapps unusable.
[361]
Thus, those who help solve the big issue of the most used chain, might just be able to
[367]
swallow up some of these 2021 bullish gains.
[371]
And if you didn’t know, the layer 2 wars are about to heat up, and heat up big time.
[376]
There is an opportunity right now, with Synthetix, as yesterday the block dropped that they plan
[383]
to go live on a preliminary mainnet, on January 15th…
[388]
In a short 10 days, and I think the rollout of it might build much hype.
[395]
Why?
[397]
January 1st, co-founder and CEO of synthetic Kain Warwick tweeted that he would be going
[402]
on a 2 week break.
[403]
Aka coming right back, before the prelim mainnet with optimism.
[408]
And me thinks, there is going to be some sort of Coinbase involvement with it, the mainnet,
[412]
as their Coinbase wallet, supported the testnet, of which Synthetix was a main feature of,
[418]
and going into the blocks article they said ā€œOn application, the coinbase wallet, already
[424]
accessible via the tesnet is Synthetix's Mintr staking platform.
[429]
If they are integrated with the test, I wouldn’t doubt they are integrating with the main…
[435]
So, that will be big for Synthetix if the Coinbase wallet supports the wallet...but
[440]
like I have been saying.
[442]
This Optimistic mainnet, isn’t a full mainnet….
[447]
Going back to the blocks article on the mainnet drop they also said ā€œSince the mainnet release
[452]
is preliminary, Optimism cautioned that it could result in outages and bugs.
[457]
Therefore, the project team will hold upgrade keys for at least the first six months to
[462]
ensure user funds' safety.
[464]
"Until we relinquish those keys, please do not consider this the full and final system,"
[471]
So it will be fully centralized out the gate, and similar to how OmiseGO went out with their
[477]
mainnet.
[478]
Remember the ties between the twoo...now Just go back to June of 2020 OmiseGo going live
[484]
with their mainnet blog post.
[486]
They said this ā€œWhat does this mean for OMG token hodlers?
[490]
Well, we can’t quite stake yet — in this release, the network remains centralized under
[495]
OmiseGo’s control using the Proof-of-Authority consensus algorithm, meaning they have not
[500]
yet relinquished sole control of the network.
[504]
This is to keep an eye on the health and stability of the network as it is being used in the
[508]
real world, before moving onto the next phase of their implementation: decentralizing the
[509]
network by moving to a Proof-of-Stake model, where OMG token hodlers can stake their tokens
[510]
on the network and reap rewards for validating transactionsā€
[511]
They said they would relinquish control, they said it would be decentralized...but that
[516]
did not happen...and it’s the next year...I hope rollups isn’t another omisego…
[522]
But this means opportunity with other layer 2’s, and let me tell you, there is a lot….xdai,
[528]
one of my favorites, as it’s ready right now, and can scale...right now.
[534]
And xdai, just recently set a new all time high for daily transactions, over 150k yesterday.
[541]
Compared with other live Layer 2’s, xdai is smashing….the only live one we can compare
[546]
to is Matic, and they are only around 40k…
[550]
And matic has 3x the marketcap of xdai...
[555]
So to get how ā€œBIGā€ this is, just look at other chains worth billions.
[561]
Cardano, is only putting up just over 12k, polkadot is putting up under 10k, xdai is
[570]
the 3rd most active chain with REAL transactions, there are many using ā€œFAKEā€ transactions.
[576]
The reality of it is this...
[579]
Ethereum is number 1 real transactions, Bitcoin is number 2 real transactions, and xdai is
[586]
number 3 real transactions…
[588]
So 2 weeks from now, we are going to learn, just how big optimism will be.
[594]
Some people think, it’s the death of things like xdai.
[598]
In my opinion, it’s only the beginning.
[601]
Cheers I’ll see you next time!
