    I came here to learn how to invest after listening to a guy on radio talk about the importance of investing and how he made $460,000 in 4 months from $160k, somehow this video has helped shed light on some things, but I'm still confused, I'm a newbie and I'm open to ideas.

      It is possible to produce superior performance provided you do something different from the majority. However most of us tend to pay more attention to the shiniest position in the market to the cost of proper diversification.

      Having monitored my portfolio performance which has made a jaw dropping $370k from just the past two quarters alone, I have learned why experienced traders make enormous returns from the seemingly unknown market.

    If you have been closely watching the crypto or even invested in it, chances are that you will wondering whether the latest cycle is over... The truth is that the market remains unpredictable especially in the long-term... Despite the heavy outflow, Bitcoin still managed to promptly recover, this recovery demonstrated bitcoin's strength despite being stress tested against highly volatile and unfavourable market conditions.. I have invested in bitcoin and still investing, bitcoin is out there to help people financially I have experienced it...

    You mentioned that some transactions were very slow and feet were very high but you don't give a detail of the digital wallets were used for those transactions,
    What you don't understand is that BTC has given lost of people the opportunity to get in to a financial system. Well, is not that you don't understand, the reality is that you have an agenda given by your bosses, if you buy BTC at $30 k and the price drops to $20 k but you stll ihave the same amounts of BTC and don't sell it, you haven't lost anything, I can't see that this video is one of those that are trying very hard to stop the new financial system that is a treat to the big financial institutions that rule the world.
    Good try bud but BTC independently of the price, it will continue to spread.
