I find it very amusing and sad that many on here are hoping for btc to be a

There’s no need for hope if it’s a fact.

Bitcoin, and crypto in general, has moved well beyond “gamblers”

Heard a quote last night that reminds me of this-

I hope it's a bubble so I can buy in after the popped and get in on the next one

That’s right, it’s rational to get in front of bubbles.
