I’m not seeing a “considerable drop” in the whole market?

The vanguard total stock market index fund is down less than %1 for the year, and still up over %11 percent for the past year.

I stand corrected. A lot of stocks are dropping.

Bitcoin drops 13%, breaking below $64,000 as sell-off intensifies, doubts about crypto grow

Some market watchers have suggested $70,000 is a key level to watch and a break below that could lead bitcoin to decline further.

Not sure of its a bottom but my IBIT is up 7.86% for the day as of now.

I saw a scary analysis for Bitcoin holders, the gist;

The moment supply can be synthetically created, scarcity is gone.And when scarcity is gone, price stops being discovered on-chain and starts being set in derivatives.That is exactly what happened to Bitcoin.

Barring some huge black swan event I believe we have seen the bottom at 60k yesterday.

Sounds a whole lot like the synthetic CDO’s of yesteryear. I’m not smart enough to know how legitimate this is, but it does make sense logically. Fractional Reserve Bitcoining essentially. Doesn’t mean there isn’t legitimacy to the underlying fundamentals, but it sure could create a lot of volatility.

You’ve seen my posts so you know I’m a long term HODLR, but also an ETF trader. I propose a friendly wager that BTC will go below $60k in calendar year 2026…black swan excluded.
The wager…one 20 round box of your or my favorite factory ammo.
I’m not rooting against BTC, but I fully intend to take advantage of this bear market and at some point will load up heavy in anticipation of the next run.
I’m heading out to re zero my practice rifle after putting a different scope on it…let me know.
Cheers!
