Blood? 😳
If you leverage 10x and can't afford a margin call maybe, but in this case you have a gambling problem.

Blood in the streets = a stream of red candlesticks lol
If you leverage Bitcoin and can't afford to all positions, it's a gamble.

After a weekend of research and consideration, I sold most of my BTC yesterday. Not because of blood in streets (BTC seems to fall on bad geopolitical news, unlike gold). Rather because BTC seems correlated with US stock market for now, and my hunch is that the US stock market will decline in coming months. (There were also some minor non-investment considerations.) My focus for 2025 is to not lose money. I will not go broke taking profits. Also I plan to get rid of all leverage in 2025. Eventually, I plan to rebuy BTC (famous last words). Of course, I certainly could be very, very wrong. Also, regardless of investment factors, it makes sense to keep at least some BTC as a tool.

Johnny, I respect your wisdom enormously, and appreciate your replies to my recent posts. There's a lot I don't know. We shall see. Happy holidays.“forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing”

Totally agree 110% with the math. So I will invest the proceeds in gold.

Definitely will. Regarding my experience: I sold a bunch of altcoin (not BTC) within two weeks of the top in September 2021 while a friend rode the same coin into the dirt in following years. So I've been through the ups and downs. Yes, BTC is different from the altcoins. Again, I appreciate both of your comments and will continue to learn. Happy holidays.I'd just encourage you to take more time to learn about Bitcoin.
