Similarly, price of a stock some years back may not be comparable with today's price in absolute terms.
A small thread on the importance of using log charts:
Similarly, price of a stock some years back may not be comparable with today's price in absolute terms.
For a 100% jump in 2002, stock would have to reach 20 (which is just Rs 10 in absolute terms)
While today, Rs 10 in absolute terms is a meagre 2-3% move

#RIL tgts are 2180 and 1820 positional over next few months if the high made at 2856 doesn't cross.
Not looking good.

Was expecting 5th wave rally towards 2800-3000 as mentioned in previous post
Move played out, but now not worth chasing anymore
Not saying the move is over, it can still go up bit more, but riskreward not good for positional longs now on, I would stay away. https://t.co/eoLshLoLBD pic.twitter.com/G0qZAEBRIX

So the cryptocurrency industry has basically two products, one which is relatively benign and doesn't have product market fit, and one which is malignant and does. The industry has a weird superposition of understanding this fact and (strategically?) not understanding it.
The benign product is sovereign programmable money, which is historically a niche interest of folks with a relatively clustered set of beliefs about the state, the literary merit of Snow Crash, and the utility of gold to the modern economy.
This product has narrow appeal and, accordingly, is worth about as much as everything else on a 486 sitting in someone's basement is worth.
The other product is investment scams, which have approximately the best product market fit of anything produced by humans. In no age, in no country, in no city, at no level of sophistication do people consistently say "Actually I would prefer not to get money for nothing."
This product needs the exchanges like they need oxygen, because the value of it is directly tied to having payment rails to move real currency into the ecosystem and some jurisdictional and regulatory legerdemain to stay one step ahead of the banhammer.
If everyone was holding bitcoin on the old x86 in their parents basement, we would be finding a price bottom. The problem is the risk is all pooled at a few brokerages and a network of rotten exchanges with counter party risk that makes AIG circa 2008 look like a good credit.
