About the forced deportation of migrants and its impact on the market and some other observations
Everyone who read me knows that I assured several times that Donald Trump would make the markets jump. Who can say I was wrong about that? How many here made a lot of money with the ALSEASON in November-December caused by Trump? Another prediction was that Trump would prevent a third world war. Those who have seen the news today know that the war in Ukraine is about to end and that even the war in the Middle East has decreased in intensity. The fact that the market has not experienced a brutal drop after the announcement by old Powell is due to the fact that the markets, especially those in Russia and Europe, reacted positively to the end of hostilities in Ukraine, after the conversation between Trump and Putin. The war is not over yet, but we have exponentially moved away from a nuclear confrontation.
The only one I'm curious about is Banana Gun, it's a good purchase price, but I'm losing money right now, any advice?

SOME REFLECTIONS ON CRYPTOCURRENCIES AND WHICH OF THEM HAVE PROVEN TO BE LOW RISK
The ALTCOIN SEASON we experienced in November and December has come to an end. On December 9, the market capitalization of altcoins reached 425 billion dollars (it is not correct to say that this equals 425 trillion dollars, as in the numerical system used in English, 'trillion' refers to a million million, while in Spanish, 'mil millones' is the correct term). As of today, altcoins have a total of 235 billion dollars, which means that nearly half of the value of the altcoin market has disappeared. Where did that money go? To all those who, seeing the bullish phase come to an end, moved to the distribution phase, meaning investors took profits and the coins deflated.
Some thoughts on the current state of cryptocurrencies
It is surprising to see Bitcoin fall from $104,000 to $99,000 and most altcoins plummet, to the point that many of them would reach zero if Bitcoin fell to $90,000. Below $90,000, many altcoins would start to show negative balances. The arrival of Donald Trump became the disease of altcoins. His Memecoin ended up dragging coins to historic lows that, until his long-awaited announcement of support for the crypto market, had been at truly ridiculous prices for days. There is no harmony between the current price of some coins and their capital.
They enter laughing and leave crying from the market 💹, poorer than when they came in, and do you know why? They fall into the trap 🪤 of the fool's bets. Don't do it, don't bet your money; there are movies that show the harsh reality of gambling, destroying lives, families, leading young people to suicide and alcoholism. This is the biggest advice you will ever receive: "Don't enter this market 💹 to put your money on bets and especially don't LEVERAGE? The market will let you win a couple of times, but ultimately it will take all your money. It's so simple to understand the principle of cryptos, most cryptocurrencies are extremely risky, their mortality rate is very high; invest in quality assets and wait for the right moment to buy. In recent days, the market has provided excellent opportunities to buy QUALITY COINS, those that in November - December reached the sky. Review each project and see how that project performed during that ALTCOIN SEASON of November December 2024, the same as on March 10, 2024, and the one that is to come. Don't gamble, don't LEVERAGE; if you want to make money, you must eliminate GREED; it's better to make a little than to lose it all. Buy low and sell high; the market always corrects. When you see it correcting, don't rush; it will correct even more, much more. Wait for your moment; the market is not going anywhere. If you can't get in this week, don't worry, it will be the next one. That thing they call fear of missing out is a lie from your brain 🧠; coins always go up and down. DON'T BET your money if you don't want to cry 😢. And never, ever sell at a loss; quality coins will recover their value and will make you money. If you sell and have already made a profit, be grateful; don't cry because the coin kept going up and you stopped making money. This happens to those who do not use emotional intelligence and suffer from a neurosis called GREED; you are not a fortune teller to know when a coin's rise will stop. If it affects you so much, sell in parts.

It would be phenomenal, seeing Bitcoin's behavior, which has been rising 💹 for several days and altcoins far below their reference price, that we have an Altcoin Season like the one in November and part of December in the coming days, perhaps as historically happened in February 2025. Perhaps some will object to the term "Altcoin Season" because they are waiting for that super moment when all altcoins shoot up 🛰️. I'm sorry to say it, but that will not happen. When I say it will not happen, I do not mean that altcoins will not reach new highs as they did in November and December. I know not all altcoins rose, but the vast majority of us, who had been holding without selling since July 2024, were already on the brink of despair 😣, saw the sky. Imagine that I held RAY from $1.37. The worst came afterward when Binance put RAY on observation. It was the perfect excuse to sell it or trade it, but I held on watching my money shrink week by week. My losses reached 80%. I was terribly depressed, but I trusted and kept buying during monumental dips. I never placed a stop-loss; I was accumulating coins and had a target for each coin in my portfolio 💼.

Dear invisible friends, I want to address all of you with the utmost respect and consideration. Lest anyone accuse me of being at a loss or being a pessimist, I can assure you that my profits outweigh my investments. Even if I lost every last coin (except Bitcoin), I would still be winning. I say this because before I write what I am forced to write out of common sense, I want you to know that I speak from experience and knowledge of the market. I know the experiences of the past, especially the terrible experience of 2022 and the sad correction after March 2024. I will only leave this writing to save my responsibility to the thousands who decided to follow me. I suppose that the newer ones have already learned the lesson of taking profits and I am very happy that they are winning.
Iran's Imminent Attack on Israel: A Test of Fire for BITCOIN and ALCOIN
"We will be precise, deadly and surprising," Benjamin Netanyahu said today, "they cannot even imagine the steamroller that will run over them." Netanyahu has made official that the attack against Iran will be effective in the next 48 hours, after swearing in the name of God that Lebanon would be reduced to ashes just as Israel did with the Gaza Strip in just 12 months. Yesterday the world was horrified by the images shown by NASA of the before and after of the Palestinian Strip, where the equivalent of 10 atomic bombs in explosives were dropped on schools, hospitals, universities, museums and family homes, causing more than 50 thousand deaths among women and children alone, thus executing the greatest genocide of the 21st century.
"Buy when the guns sound and sell when the trumpets sound"
I am surprised to read what all the pages on BINANCE or on most of them post, making predictions about the price of BITCOIN ignoring that all markets at this time are under pressure from the war in the Middle East. How do you explain to them that 20% of all the oil on the planet passes through the Strait of Hormuz under the control of Iran, today Israel made it clear that it will retaliate against Iran, when? we do not know, soon? perhaps, will they destroy Iran's strategic infrastructure? power plants, nuclear plants, industries, will it use nuclear weapons? I can believe anything about Israel, after seeing them massacre 42 thousand children and women in the Caza strip and shit themselves in the UN and in the international criminal court, in Turkey and throughout the planet, being under the protection of the US, Israel will do anything, including using atomic weapons. Does Iran have atomic weapons? I would bet that yes, mounted on hypersonic missiles, if they did not have them, Iran's response against Israel will be brutal, its entire arsenal is in mountains, they will launch about 10 thousand drone missiles against Israel, and believe me, they have them, Iran is impossible to invade, after the damage that Israel causes to Iran, Israel will be destroyed. What will happen to the markets? Let's look at the past, when the winds of war blow over the markets, investors remain in the trenches. Before the outbreak of a conflict, volatility takes over the markets and stock and cryptocurrency traders seek shelter in so-called safe haven assets, that is, those values that even in times of uncertainty usually maintain their value. Gold, fixed-income funds and currencies.
