Even Boeing is up 5% today. BTC only moves with the stock market. The 60% March crash shows that it isn't a hedge against economic disaster. You're picking up scraps from the stock market while believing that you're engaging in, or profiting from, something revolutionary.

Perhaps you'll retort that you're hodling. But the fundamentals of BTC are horrible, so that it has no long-term future either. We saw what happened when it went to $20,000 before: $100-fees. Three-day waiting times. The code is irrevocably neutered by Blockstream. You can only solve the problem to a minuscule extent with third-party and second-layer solutions which wipe out privacy, and enslave you to banks and financial institutions. BTC has absolutely no use-case, and is propped up merely by speculation. Mean-while, everyone who bought over $10,000 is still holding the bag three years later.

If there is a future for crypto, it's probably going to be BCH or XMR. What we can say with certainty is that it won't be BTC. Ride the pump up if you're already holding, set a stop-limit, and then, when it begins to fall, cash out while you still can.
