Crypto news over the last week:
Congratulations - You are Still Here!
If you are reading this....and still in crypto, it means over the last year you have survived LUNA, FTX, Three Arrows Capital, BlockFi, Voyager, Celsius, Silvergate, and Silicon Valley Bank collapse, the SEC's attack on crypto and more.
The last year has been tough on the crypto market but now over the next 6 months, you have the opportunity to accumulate crypto assets at bargain prices.
The biggest precipitator for the next bull run is Bitcoin's halving event which (historically) has resulted in a significant increase in the price of Bitcoin (and the rest of the market) which is expected to start as early as November this year.
During these next few months, it's likely the crypto markets will continue to move sideways, especially if the SEC continues its attack on crypto, which makes this the perfect time to continue to accumulate while prices are still low.
Richard.
