It's a trade. He bought Bitcoin below $90,000. Trump has strongly supported cryptos, so this still has momentum. It could return to $80K, but position this as a speculative asset in your portfolio. Others see value in it that he does not. The current move can continue to new highs.

At these levels, you can buy this, not Coinbase.

According to technical analyst Larry Williams, 8 out of 9 times in the 270-day cycle, Bitcoin has reached a stage where it sold off hard. The last sell-off was Feb-June 2023, then it turned positive. Before that was July-October 2022 when it sold off again. Also, Williams notes that when Bitcoin gets very overvalued vs. gold that Bitcoin hits an inflection point and Bitcoin sells off. Third, Bitcoin is seeing high volumes in it, and that typically signals a sell-off to come. Fourth, his data tells him that professionals are selling into strength. Expect a little weakness, then a bounceback, then Bitcoin will decline hard.

BitCoin. The rise has been unbelievable. The primary concern right now is that it is unregulated. He is concerned about how regulation could affect it. He can’t see the central banks sitting back and doing nothing. Block Chain technology ad BicCoin are two different things. Block Chain is a way for people to make transactions.

BitCoin Stocks. The investment fund is not an ETF. They are closed end funds. There are no ETFs that hold BitCoins. GBTC-N has pretty high premiums to BitCoin. It is very, very risky. He would wait for an actual ETF. Futures in the currency are coming out shortly and could inspire more ETFs.
