The mere fact that Justin Trudeau can freeze the truckers banks accounts just like that is another reason we need DeFi and fast

Not trying to get political or anything, it's just really worrying when the government can just freeze your assets, your money whenever they will it. I don't believe that should be an option for anyone to be able to do and it holds too much undeserved power over the people. Storing a password well or…

Bitcoin was $17k in December 2017, a year later it went down 80% to $3k. Fast forward less than 2 years later it went up 1500% to $65k. Patience is key when you invest in crypto.

Patience is so important. Most people in crypto are looking for a fast way to get financial freedom and that does happen but it’s all about timing. Bitcoin can go up 1000% in just a year but before that it’ll be slowly decreasing 10% every other week. The key is to be patient. Keep DCAing…

Bitcoin Data Shows Profit Taking From Long-Term Holders Behind Decline To $40k

As the Bitcoin price declines to $40k, on-chain data shows long-term holders have harvested some profits recently. Bitcoin Long-Term Holder SOPR Shows Some Spikes Recently As pointed out by an analyst in a CrypoQuant post, some BTC long-term holders seem to have participated in profit taking over the past day. The relevant indicator here is the spent output profit ratio (or the SOPR in brief), which tells us about the profit ratio of the whole Bitcoin market. The metric works by checking the past history of each coin being sold on the chain to see what price it was moved at before. If this previous price was less than the current one, then the coin moved at a profit. Similarly, if the current price is higher, then the investor sold this coin at a loss. When the value of the SOPR is above one, it means investors are, on average, selling at a profit right now.

SOPR value exactly equal to one naturally means the market is just breaking even right now. A version of this Bitcoin indicator takes into account only those coins that hadn’t moved for at least 155 days before being sold. This supply belongs to the long-term holders, and the metric is called LTH SOPR. The below chart shows the trend in the BTC LTH SOPR over the course of the month so far: The indicator’s value seems to have spiked up recently | Source: CryptoQuant The quant has marked the especially large spikes of the Bitcoin LTH SOPR in the above graph. At those points, the long-term holders look to have harvested some profits. Such a trend has often been bearish, as can be seen in the chart that the price struggled following these large spikes.
