  1. Bitcoin’s sub-$40K range trading and mixed data reflect traders’ uncertainty I believe < that the inflation is already priced in crypto market since the end of last year. These manipulative rats are always 2 steps ahead of everybody because they are market makers. I hope I’m wrong and they won’t keep dumping it on retail investors as always. Those who hold the longest will profit the most, I trade and hold profits keep up the great work! and also Bradston Neil Crypto has been doing a great job reviewing all chart, trade and techniques on BTC which has enhance the growth of my portfolio from 1.74BTC to 8.9 BTC lately. I left his contacts in the comment below take care.

  2. Being tech savvy is not equal to being intelligent. As the saying goes, the MORONS and their money are easy departed.

  3. nah the fact that people are calling them stupid or saying they didn't get their money stolen.. yes they did.. lmao. yall be hella insensitive and rude asf. People act like nobody falls for a trick, everyone has whether it's something small or big like these scams. They're brave for coming out to share their story, it reminds me of the Inventing Anna show on netflix how the rich people didn't want to reveal themselves because they didn't want people to know they got scammed by some fake girl. They're not stupid, someone smart just decided to trick them using tactics. I mean there may be a small percentage of people who really have no common sense, but it aint right to show disrespect to them. people always wanna be negative smh

  4. I will forever be indebted to you 😇you’ve changed my whole life I’ll continue to preach about your name for the world to hear you’ve saved me from a huge financial debt with just little investment thanks so much Mrs Charlotte Irene Smith

  5. People are so harsh in these comments. These people who run these confidence schemes (now called romance scams) are professional. I think she is brave for coming forward so others can learn from her mistakes.

  6. I totally agree with what you are saying.The fact is, BTC is the future of crypto and the questions traders ask themselves now if this is right time to invest? before jumping into conclusion i think you should take a look at things first. for the past few days the price of BTC has been fluctuating which means the market is currently unstable and you cant tell if it is going bearish or bullish. while others still continue to trade without the fear of making loss, others are being patient. it all depends on the pattern with which you trade and also the source of your signals. i would say trading has been going smoothly for me, i started with 4.5 BTC and i have accumulated over 11.6 BTC in just three weeks, with the trading strategy given to me by Cormac Donald…..

  7. I love the grounded reality of this channel.. TA is all well and good but I find it truly baffling that all major crypto youtubers just look at pure TA and completely ignore the bigger narrative of why BTC is pumping and why the future outlook might not be as rosy as it seems. It's kinda irresponsible to ignore the fact that each ETF launch so far has caused a major dump at the peaks of BTC. We were already on shaky footing with historically low volume and almost pure whale pumps, narrowly avoiding a long-term bear market. This is the worst possible time in history to invest as so many don't back up their crypto assets. More emphasis should be put into day trading as it is less affected by the unpredictable nature of the market.I have made over 10.8btc 4rm day tradng with Mykel wren, insights and signals in less than 4weeks, this is one of the best medium to backup your assets incase it goes bearish..

  8. Wow. This happened to my daughter. Someone befriended her on Minecraft and asked her for all of her V bucks. Then when my daughter transferred her Vbucks to the other player, he/she bounced. All of that being said, these women could have learned a thing or two from a seven year old girl.
