Coinbase says they're re-starting "Bitcoin loans," but read the fine print.
Coinbase is just the middle man. They wrap bitcoin into cbBTC and deploy it into an Ethereum-based DeFi lending protocol called Morpho.
I would not touch this product with a 10 ft pole.
Cantor Fitzgerald just boosted their price target on $MSTR from $518 to $613. 👀
Getting a little cliche to say Trump insiders know something, but I like the bullishness.
And that's a wrap. $MSTR closes at $387.47 with a market cap of $89.30B for the Nasdaq 100 snapshot. Official inclusion announcement is on Dec 13. Fund rebalancing on Dec 20.
Goodbye $GME. Closed my personal position today.
The bitcoin treasury playbook requires commitment, consistency, and transparency.
I don't care if I miss a larger move later. I don't trust management to execute over the long run and we're spoiled for alternatives.
Bit Bonds in a nutshell:
- 90% goes to government funding, 10% to buying bitcoin
- 1% interest annually for 10 years
- 100% of BTC upside paid up to 4.5% compounded annual return
- Remaining BTC upside split 50/50 with the government
Warning: How to not blow yourself up during the next 12 months of the bitcoin cycle.
We're now at the part of cycle where new people:
- Ape into leverage on $BTC and $MSTR.
- Get convinced by their favorite influencer that cycles are dead and it's up only forever.
- Keep ramping
$MSTR sentiment has become so bearish it makes me bullish.
IV is brutally cheap. MSTR is on track to clear S&P 500 eligibility with a wide margin at a top 100 level market cap.
But all anyone can talk about is lagging performance. Well, performance lags until it doesn't.
$MSTR debt FUD is hilarious because no one ever pulls out a calculator.
MSTR currently has a leverage ratio of 17% on their BTC holdings, with a target around 25%.
Meanwhile, in real estate 500% leverage is normal and FHA loans enable $2,857% leverage. But sure, let's FUD MSTR.
So tonight, we're panic dumping bitcoin because we're worried about an AI that pumps data straight back to the CCP upsetting American AI dominance.
I don't ask for much, but please stop being retarded.
Unpopular Opinion: $1 million #BTC is not in play for 2025 and you should unfollow anyone who claims it is.
I still think Bitcoin will do quite well, but pumping such unrealistic expectations while living in denial of bear markets is actually what gets people rekt.
