What Next For Bitcoin? Giga Pump?
Hello followers sorry for inactivity, I have been very busy with IRL issues
Straight to the point, $BTC is the only thing we care about, so some analysis on the recent trend and what to expect next
Bitcoin pumped back moderately from 52.5k bottom all the way to 60k, this was not a surprise due to the extremely high short liquidations stacked all the way at 59k. Which is exactly what happened, there was a burst of price pump near 58k~59k and it slowly moved to 60k.
Not much short squeeze from here, Bitcoin will need real inflow to pump even higher. Considering how ATH is 73k and everyone was expecting 100k or idk, a few million dollars (XD), this is obviously not a super bullish run. It's at the end and just clinging on for life.
In fact, looking at 4hr chart Bitcoin was magically saved near 57k zone, when every indicator was suggesting a straight dive from here. Some very high volume trades pushed it back up, probably to short squeeze. Even then, now the volume is so low and it's stagnating.
I closed my short way earlier, and opened a small long/short hedge at 54k, closed my long and left my short, I will be adding more shorts every time Bitcoin pumps above 60k. Not all-in, split orders as always with low leverage.
Regarding the claims that Funding Rate being negative will be the cause for a price surge, Funding Rate was always 0.01% for BTC the last year, except certain times. And when BTC did actually peak to ATH, it was near 0.1%, 10x. and it still pumped so...
One thing to understand about funding rate is that it's just a tool to keep futures price and index price the same. Since we have Perpetual Futures, the gap between Futures and Spot market can be different. Which is called a Basis. There are ways to profit from this, called Gap Trading but more on that later. Anyways, this basis doesn't always mean something is super overvalued or undervalued. Since crypto is so volatile and is open for trading 24/7, the fluctuations can be enough to create a basis gap which can lead to abnormal funding rates. Unless the high funding rate persists, it's just market uncertainity.
There is still no real reason to buy BTC at this moment I believe, it's not a good investment for massive gains, even if BTC does pump significantly, there is no exponential gains anymore. That's for people who bought when BTC was like, $1000 or even $1. No more opportunities like that, unless you go leveraged long... which leads to another issue I will talk about later.
The imbalance between Risk-Reward ratio on BTC is probably why so many are going for altcoins and memecoins. Bitcoin, despite being one of the most stable coin in the crypto market, is still very volatile compared to traditional investments. It's simply not worth the risk. Many retails (or gamblers) want those massive fat gainz and BTC doesn't provide.
Which leads to another issue, BTC isn't really a "hedge against market uncertainity and inflation". That's called Gold. There is no "Safe asset" that just happens to pump and dump 3~5% every day. Or sometimes even 20%. That's Bitcoin. You want safe storage of value, just buy gold and treasury bonds. I can't believe why so many people think all those big companies would buy billions $$ worth of BTC. If they wanted to, they already would have done it. In fact, a lot of super rich people who claim BTC is good, have a shitton of money to buy BTC themselves too. Like, actually pump it significantly, but they don't.. A logical discrepency.
Anyways, the overall trend is still down. I believe Bitcoin will dump around 20%~25%, and when recession is over (Which will be another 2 years), we will have another hype driven giga bull market when everyone will be happy... until it crashes again and repeats. Until then, I will keep shorting. Speaking of hype, which is the only reason crypto pumps, it's really reaching the fatigue level. So think before you FOMO dive into some shitcoin. Bye!
Oh one last thing, watch out for FOMC meeting, which will probably do a 50bps rate cut and market will be super volatile. Could be an opportunity. Or your liquidation if you risk too much xD

All of my followers and short enjoyers we are making profits. I have waited for so long, it is about time I get paid for my patience.
The only thing I did was low leverage shorts. I didn't believe in some fantasy that every shitcoin would go to the moon, I saw reality but also recognized that the crypto market is too volatile, and mostly unreasonable in the short term.
Therefore, going high leverage on crypto is adding another layer of risk on an already high risk high yield investment. There's no way it works, the entire thing is based on luck. You don't rely on luck to profit from your investments. That's completely different.
Anyways, I will keep doing what I have been doing. Shorting $BTC at low leverage and constantly growing my capital.. Until 45k at least. Then I will think what to do from there, things could be different in the future so new analysis will be necessary.
Stay safe don't get liquidated and keep rolling your investments. Peace
Oh also #Trondao is moving a lot of their BTC, maybe Justin Sun is finally pulling it off. Watch out.

A lot of attempts at market manipulation, but in the end low leverage short will be the only profitable trade. It has been that way for a very long time and is going to remain that way until recession ends.
I am continuing my short on $BTC and it's working very nicely. Expecting 45k in months. And then I will maybe consider starting buying, slowly at a time.
$BTC probably won't go to 15k like last dump, but maybe 40k ish. At worst case 38k? But definitely not below 35k. So anywhere below 40k would be a good sign to buy.
But to do so you need to actually have money when the crash happens, however most people will be unable to catch this opportunity as they bought at the peak and thought they are geniuses, choosing which color their Lamborghini will be. And they are at debt, can't pay their bills, stuck with their shitty entry price... RIP bozos

Some fake news I keep seeing everywhere regarding $TRX and Warren Buffett,
He never bought Tron himself. He was gifted that amount of TRX by Justin Sun, and now Sun is selling Buffett's name to advertise his shitcoin.
Does Warren Buffett even know he has TRX? Nothing confirmed. All the claims are from Justin Sun, nothing from Buffett.
Stop falling for fake news and manipulation!!! Crypto is full of lies and scams.

$SOL Possible short entry near $143~145. Take extreme caution, market is absolutely unpredictable.
1min chart is showing unexplainable volatility while in the 1 day chart, the price range for most coins actually remains the same.
And we are also on a weekend, none of this really makes any sense from traditional patterns. What's actually going on? Us retail have no clue. I suggest not trading ATM other than some scalping.
If you have no idea whats going on it probably means you are being played. In this context I am also being played.
Stay safe everyone

OK many have forgotten that I am Short Maestro, and I mainly do shorts. Recently I have been busy with BTC long, but this kind of market opens opportunities again for shorting.
Almost every coin has pumped thanks to BTC. BTC has 54% market dominance, no wonder why this happened.
However, most of the coins that pumped along BTC doesn't have a single reason to pump. They just ride along BTC, as they always do.
Therefore, most of these shitcoins will dump soon or later. Especially the ones that are so shit even within the shitcoins. Probably shorting any coins soon or later will result in profits. Of course, we are talking about shitcoins, so some of them MAY pump and do their own thing. That's why they are shitcoins.
Now, BTC may pump a bit more from here, but obviously some correction will happen and that will shake off all the useless coins. It will happen so fast, many will lose all their investments in seconds.
In conclusion: Most altcoins are hyped to the max after BTC pump. They can't sustain this price. Most will dump. Shorting is good. DYOR. BUT $ETH Short seems like the best. It pumed 18% the last day. That's not good.

Cheers. $BTC exceeded today's goal and broke all the way to 70k. Now we have a real chance for 80k. ATH will be broken soon.
Amazing thing about this pump is, it's still not overbought. So I have no clue where the limit can be for BTC. Enjoy profits for who went long with me.

Why I Short $SOL ? What is Solana, why did it pump recently and what are the main issues behind maintaining it's value?
Solana is a blockchain platform, similar or better (they claim) to Etherium $ETH . They supposedly have faster transactions, but with lower fees. Amazing! Right? Of course nothing is so good in reality.
Their recent pump is their link to all the shitcoins and memecoins using Solana as a platform. It's the best platform to make shitcoins and pump n dump. BOME is also Solana based. BOME is a joke, I won't even mention further. (It is literally a joke, it's a meme coin)
Solana's biggest issue: Their developers. This "blockchain" "crypto" thing is all about decentralization, clarity. Yet this coin is one of the most centralized coins ever. Technically, an insider group within Solana can cause A LOT OF DAMAGE, if intending to.
Their devs were sued for selling illegal securities with no approval from SEC. They were also subject to a class-action lawsuit for not burning their coin $SOL , where 11 million were supposed to be burnt but only 3 million were burnt.
Why is this important? Because SOL has no supply cap. Yes, there can be infinite amount of SOL. The only way to limit Solana from turning into a zero-value inflated currency, is burning it. But the devs are not reliable in entrusting such job, it seems.
Finally, the biggest of biggest: Outages. This crypto just experiences an outage for hours, a blockchain cannot afford to do that. How is this happening? They have way too little validators, and their code is bugged. It's still an on-going issue.
Do you even know what happens when a blockchain is offline for 17hours? Validators had different ledgers. I don't know how they even fixed that. They probably couldn't.
A crypto with unlimited supply that suffers from outages, with the vulnerability still in plain sight? That's a ticking bomb right there. Is that even considered a blockchain? I am not trusting this shitcoin when we got Etherium.

Who else shorted $BTC yesterday? I shorted at 66k with 5x leverage, closed position at 63k made like 20% profit but then it dropped to 58k after but oh well I still made money, best not be greedy
I am opening another short at 63.5k signals still show more dump, although it is very likely that market will stagnate with no volatility for a while. It was evident that a dump will happen soon or later when the exchange doesnt even have enough usdt to borrow to long accounts. Funding fee on btc/usdt was at 0.09% which is a guaranteee dump for a stablecoin.
If you are a long position, and still didnt get liquidated market may correct to 55k, but then will retrace back to 68k within 2026 I predict. So if you can hodl just do it.
Plus the BTC I bought at spot market at 51k I will probably not sell. I am consideing buying more $BNB at spot with my recent gains.
If you are holding btc, not futures then I suggest holding. You have no risk of getting liquidated and your profits will come eventually.
Patience is a winner in this game. For example when I shorted at 66k yesterday btc went all the way up to 68k. But with liquidation at 78k I didnt even care. I was gonna play it out getting my funding fees but the dump was quicker than expected, to be honest.
#ShortMaestro #BTC #Stablecoins
Now my name is literally short maestro so I will give some tips on shorting stablecoins. On stablecoins. there is no huge green candle on a 1m or 1hr chart. But big red candles with extended wick is very common.
It means if you short stablecoins, the chance of getting wiped in seconds is near impossible with low leverage and scaled order.
This is the opposite for shitcoins recently, however. they just do a 100% pump for no reason then slowly decline.

đ $BTC Holding Strong at $66k: The Epitome of Stability đ
Despite a minor dip yesterday, BTC never fell below $64k, showcasing its resilience. Remember, BTC is the ultimate long-term investment, bound to rise eventually.
However, the same can't be said for altcoins. While they often pump alongside BTC, they lack the fundamental basis to sustain these gains. When BTC falters, altcoins follow suit in a repetitive cycle.
So, before jumping into altcoins, ask yourself: do they truly hold fundamental value? Will they defy BTC's trend and continue rising independently? Or are you simply following the hype?
If you prefer a simpler strategy, consider investing in BTC/ETH/BNB. These three stalwarts offer reliable returns with minimal hassle. Why complicate things with memecoins and low-value altcoins?
Remember, anything below $1 is often deemed unworthy in the market's eyes. Let's focus on quality investments and avoid falling for the allure of quick gains. #ShortMaestro đ°đ
