So its good to listen to both sides...12 May 2021 17:48
I'm just making a point that it is sensible to at least listen to and entertain a contrary viewpoint.
My posts from 19th April (below) attempted to highlight the point that bubbles can and will always form and burst. Just take a look at a daily chart for any tech index between 1990 and 2010 to see a beautiful shaped spike in relation to the tech bubble. Yes, some people became very rich during the ascension, but many became very poor during the descent. The time to invest for massive gains in many digital currencies was prior to Q4 2020 - I have friends, who are digi savvy and importantly understood crypto, who have made 100s x their original investments, several becoming millionaires - it's those types of stories that are fueling the retail interest and boom (and bust?) in certain crypto.
Of course, there are still opportunities and crypto is likely here for the long run, but enter with caution. Do some basic research into crypto, which tech is emerging in terms of industry standard, which currency or tokens are primarily in the open market and not the majority held by employees who, after a significant (orchestrated?) rise, can dump nearly the entire currency... YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
And no, I'm not a crypto denier - I'm about to take the plunge, but only now having made a significant effort to become informed.

Glad you liked it.
Just a counter view to yours to help newbies not get drawn in by the complete 8ollocks of the ramping of a spiking share.
But maybe you are right.... those who bought at 280 must be very grateful for the views of those saying it can only go one way...

So predictable.
Starting to look interesting again the closer it gets to £1. I missed it first time around (was watching but funds tied up elsewhere) and deliberately didn't chase the spike. One thing I've learnt over the years: always let the share price come to you, not the other way around... that way you don't get impaled on the spike.
