Hi stoney...
On Bitcoin... this is how I view it:
https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/bitcoin-price-thread.315402/page-268#post-5256521
But there are folks out there that are saying its going to $100K plus.... so who knows brother.
GBA had the same return with CRSR and GrowGen. (I still love how we were the FIRST to find GrowGen near $5)
Post your question down in that thread.
@johnarb has a handle on this stuff in a big way. Cool dude. He'll answer whatever you want to know about anything crypto.
I did notice RIOT blockchain has risen from the dead today lol. It's like a Kodak. Crypto-Kodak.
This market...

... I love it though.
Oh man, I don't want to disappoint you guys, but I have not dabbled in the stock markets for years! I follow it and watch CNBC every single day (M-F) but I'm all-in on cryptos for a while now.
Anyway, back to MSTR, this stock valuation is all shaken up as it is tied to the bitcoin btc price. I read on Twitter that MSTR m2m profits on the bitcoins are higher than their operating profits for the past 20 years, (probably meant compared to each individual year).
On CNBC, Michael Saylor was asked more than once if MSTR is a software company or a hedge fund that invested in bitcoin. For better or worse, profits are profits and losses are losses on those bitcoins in the MSTR treasury reserves.
[edit: MSTR is probably the best proxy play for bitcoin in the stock markets, better than GBTC, at least it has the software business as fall-back safety net if bitcoin price stalls, but as btc price goes much higher, MSTR stock price will go up as well]
My biased view on bitcoin is that we're on the start of a bull market cycle and my conservative top price of this bull market is $50K, but I would not be surprised one bit if bitcoin goes above $100K
I don't want to bore people on this thread, but the amount of money coming into bitcoin is overwhelming (see video below), which is much different than the last bitcoin bull market cycle in 2017. We're talking retail investors, institutional investors, uhnw, let's talk specifics, PayPal, Square, GBTC, Paul Tudor Jones, Stanley Druckenmiller, Fidelity, JP Morgan, Guggenheim and even Ray Dalio is starting to warm up to the bitcoin investment idea and Blackrock CIO Rick Rieder even said bitcoin is better than Gold.
All of the above for a bitcoin btc marketcap currently of $365B. That does not compute. Raoul Pal has several videos on youtube describing the situation with bitcoin as just "noise" for some of the bigger pension funds and bigger players, it's too small for them to participate in. It's counter intuitive, but when bitcoin btc hits $1T marketcap ~$60K/btc then it might get a lot more $$$ coming into it. It's risky not to own bitcoin now, but it becomes even more risky as the price gets higher, weird how that plays out, but not owning bitcoin means having a long position on fiat currencies which are being printed by central banks at unprecedented rate and well, being short bitcoin.
