Do you think Bitcoin tops out this year or keeps running into 2026? What's your price target?
Weird guy for he is buying the dip: thats gambling with your bitcoin.
Just DCA for 20 years.
I always buy bitcoin when price drops, never sell.
No influencers, no noise — just massive tech, smart tokenomics, and the clearest 100x setup in the market

Pal was forced to buy Bitcoin through Trump's family company World Liberty Financial. Pakistan can't even feed it's people and they harbor terrorists, go figure. Trump and family corrup.
I made $64,721 in ONE trade (Full Breakdown) today. Thank you Evan Dannis for all the knowledge and insights you've shared with me over the past few months. I began this journey in November 2024. Financial education is essential for over 70% of the population, as only a few are truly literate in this area.
The cycle has changed.
bitcoin has nothing to do with tariffs. unless you are a trader. I loathe traders.
Aside from bitcoin, altcoins seems like gambling. Too risky. Not for long term investors.
When Bitcoin doubles, I sell off enough to cover my initial investment and never have to worry about it again. Easy.
I don’t think gold is boring. It’s more fun to hold something physical over digital
Touches 200k, drops, then keeps running till 2035-2040 when we start pricing things on Sats. Enjoy
Holding btc for the next 20 years
Thank you.. how about 3rd world war nuclear disasters approaching soon where all data will be erased. What grant my investments?
😂😂😂😂
It appears Aaron Dishner has not studied bitcoin. If he did he would know that Bitcoin has never dipped below it's halving price after its cycle ATH. His ATH prediction I believe is fairly accurate. If he studies the lows of each cycle, he will see the cycles are becoming more stable, following the law of diminishing returns. So no way Bitcoin will ever drop to $45 or $40K, it will never drop below $64K. My guess will be in the $87K range at the bottom of the bear market in 2026/2027 before climbing to the 2028 halving.
Bitcoin isn't real. It's digits on a screen, backed by nothing but hype and greed.
