Why is crypto pumping hard right now? Easing US-China trade tensions and Trump’s decision not to fire Fed Chair Jerome Powell have calmed markets. These factors, though seemingly unrelated, have restored confidence in crypto - a risky asset many retail investors watch closely.

It's also possible that gold has a pullback. But - I think it has a potentially long-term upward trajectory as retail investors, banks, and nations from all over the world start buying more gold. (And honestly, I think they will.) What do you think? Am I "spot" on or way off base? 👀👇 #Gold

PS - I still love Bitcoin! 💙 I also think many retail buyers may be frustrated it hasn’t surged like gold. But crypto’s not dead. Strong fundamentals and tech back many tokens. It’s just that fear and uncertainty are driving investors into gold right now. (Gold's current price doesn't lie.)

The entire crypto market is getting wrecked. Bitcoin's down by about 10% for the week - below $80,000 for first time in a while. But the biggest drop from the top 20 is Ethereum - down about 24% for the week. (Do you think this is DANGER or a mere buying opportunity?) #Bitcoin #Crypto

Do you agree that if heavy-hitting institutions jump in - it might stabilize the market? Maybe then - we wouldn't see 70% drops? (Not as much, at least.)

That's a valid concern! If heavy pullbacks occur, states and corporations might indeed sell off, impacting BTC prices. However, broader adoption by major players could stabilize the market over time. Still, this level of institutional involvement is unprecedented—so it's hard to predict for sure!
