The amount of cash available in the US financial markets just dwarfs bitcoin. If FOMO ever kicks in, watch out. The converse is also true - reverse FOMO when someone yells fire.

But now for the first time, the big asset managers are seated at the bitcoin punchbowl. And Larry Fink wants you to drink..... have a pint. He pretends he doesn't want you to drink too much, but we all know all that ended with his last crusade - ESG.

Yup. My plan in this cycle was to sell once BTC hit it's ATH, maybe a bit after that. But all this good news changed my plan. It actually made it more difficult but I'll hold out a bit longer. My last purchases were in March and those are almost 4x. Might cash out when it hits that then wait till the next cycle.
