I went long at 3k.
Look at the other thread. When everybody was screaming bitcoin to fall to 1k, I proposed a bet it will reach 20k first before 1k(This was when bitcoin was near 3k). I even explained that the support is ridiculously strong if it ever reaches 1kish to 2k that I dont see it falling to the 1k level.
Get long! 93xx. !!
