So US Government decides to increase yield on bonds , reduce reckless money printing and a bunch of other decisions that will eventually make stock investors move a lot of their money from stocks to bonds. Basically stocks become kind of a risky and uncertain assets while bonds become the opposite, safe haven, almost zero risk and guaranteed yield. That will eventually crash stocks/sp500 and so on. Understandably this means all huge institutional investors will take their money out of BTC. At best we are expecting another 2-3 to 4 year bear market before markets start to recover. BTC may as well go 10k under easily and stay there for a long time.
On the other hand Jeff Booth and Greg Floss may say that government can reduce money printing and improve bonds yields but that's just temporary and eventually they will have to start printing lots of money again to avoid stock markets to crash because nobody wants that. Also they may say inflation is going to get worse and worse due to the money printing and the best bet against inflation is Bitcoin.
But my opinion is that Bitcoin is not dependant on reddit users/bitcoin forums/youtube gurus etc. It's dependant on the big money! And big money is controlled mostly by people who consider BTC a very risky asset! (of course with the exceptions of Saylor, Cathie Wood and the early BTC Whales who have diamond hands for lifetime)
So I'm thinking who exactly is going to put a lot of money in Bitcoin in a market crisis where stock are going down by 50% and more in a couple of weeks/months. Who is going to risk it? Also is US Government really able to prevent another mega stock market crash? Nasdaq Composite Index is currently at all time highs up around 600% from 2010!
Let's discuss this topic until we figure out every possible scenario!
The Bitcoin Fear & Greed Index is at 10 today. The lowest level since March 2020. At that time, the COVID-19 pandemic had just started to spread around the world, and we had a liquidity crisis in all liquid markets.
This caused the price of Bitcoin to drop by more than 50% in a few hours to a low of $3.2K on some trading platforms.
The fear was extreme. However, a strong rebound was quickly observed thanks to the HODLers of last resort who had seen a unique opportunity to seize. What happened next proved them right.
Today, the price of Bitcoin is at $42K. This is almost 40% lower than the ATH of November 10, 2021, at $69K. But is it time to give in to extreme fear? I don't think so. Above all, we must keep control of our emotions and take a step back. Don't panic and take a step back. It's as simple as that.
If you doubt it, ask yourself this question: would you have been in extreme fear if someone had told you two years ago that the price of Bitcoin would have been $42K in January 2022? I don't think so!
Don't let short-term volatility override Bitcoin's long-term goals. In a few years, the current period will not even appear on the Bitcoin price chart.
Stay strong, Stay Bitcoin HODLers.
Ever talked to a young male in the past year and a half? I am one and it is so fucking obnoxious. Every time you run into a moid this is inevitably the topic of conversation eventually, it is so mind numbingly boring, I just donβt care about your GRIND, man.
I realise that this is probably the result of economic anxiety ravaging the mind of young powerless men but it is manifesting itself in the most annoying way possible.
Make it tabboo to discuss money in public once more.

What is the "ultimate" safest US stock index, international index and bond index if you are a Canadian or better yet anyone looking to invest over 30 years for retirement? Does this investing idea stand true during the pandemic and is it more riskier during this time period?
I was just checking on the fear and greed index and I saw that it was at "Extreme Fear" of 24 and of course I thought "hmmm why is that?" https://alternative.me/crypto/fear-and-greed-index

As to what I would buy: You buy U.S. Steel (an old joke), uh I mean, you buy foundational blockchains:
BTC, ETH, SOL, DOT, POLY/Matic, AVAX, BNB, ADA
THANK YOU Everyone that gave me love.
Basically what the title says, I use my phone and text using my left index finger and right thumb. If I need to reach something up high on the screen, I use my left middle finger.
To stabilize my phone, I put my left thumb on the bottom of the phone, use my left pinky finger on the side left side (just the tip of my finger at the middle point of the side of my phone), and place my right index finger flat against the right side of my phone (beginning at the top and down to my palm).
I get comments often from people who see me text how weird it is.
Edit: my opinion is that this is the best way to hold a phone!

Small-Cap Stocks Are in Line to Be Big Winners in 2022
Look at the 1 month chart and it's been a steady drop since these 2 articles happened. Very frustrating as I went all in on small caps and they are easily my biggest losers especially on a day like today with the market super up.
Since the 12th, there has been only ONE day the Index went up (by a measly 5 points), every other day has gone down.

Thought I'd get some public opinion on this one, what do you think is the best way to invest $100k CAD? I'm getting a large amount soon from other investments and want to keep growing it at 10% - 20% per year. Holding at least for 5yrs.
My thoughts are as follows:
-
Not investing in real estate in Ontario, too much money tied up in a house that will barely cashflow and it'll be hard to manage and find a property so cheap (max property id be able to get would be $500k)
-
50% into Index Fund ETF's tracking S&P 500 like VSP or VFV
-
20% in high dividend ETF like QYLD (12%/yr return since 2014)
-
10% in an Total Market ETF tracking US market like VTI
-
10% in Mid Cap Index like VO
-
4% in Ethereum or other similiar crypto built on a platform (unlike Bitcoin)
-
4% Crypto stacking in high risk high return funds
-
2% Cash
Just some context, I'm (22m) a Canadian university student. Last year in April I put in a big lump sum in a bunch of index funds. I'm not as happy with the returns I've made so far as I would of made quite a but more if I allocated some of those funds into the blue chips like MSFT, AAPL, INTL and AMD like I originally planned.
I'm looking to put another large lump sum in the market and was thinking maybe this time is should pick up some of those stocks. Is this a good idea or should I stick to adding to the ETFs I already have? I'm kind of afraid of buying the top but I guess it shouldn't matter since I'm investing for the long term.
I'm currently spread between these EFTs:
VFV, CDZ, QQQJ, VAB, XEI, ZAG, XEF, VEE, ZDV, XLV, XRE, VCN
EDIT: It was actually 2 lumps sums, 1 in April and then another in August which was double the amount I put in in April
The fear Index just slipped down further to 16 the lowest since September. It's because investors are getting impatient waiting for a recovery to over 50k. But just one month ago it was at extreme greed as many were euphoric believing at a 100k BTC just this year and some even in just Nov.
That's the cycle that always continues no matter what. I'm 100% sure in a month or so we will be back at extreme greed an everyone will forget this days where they calling a 20% drop a crypto winter.
Also 16 is pretty much the bottom last time in September it also bottomed at about the same range, that's about as low as it can go no matter what so a jump back up is inevitable.
No one here should get scared or so just remember what goes down must also go up....
Gonna make an amendment to the title here and say the addresses may just be missing in the system, and not on the physical labels! Be sure to read the edit at the bottom!
Tldr; Might be an problem, check with Valve and FedEx if you think your Index is having problems shipping past the usual FedEx issues.
Like it says in the title. My Index RMA has been through a hell of a journey, bouncing between two facilities for weeks, and that's only after sitting at their RMA facility for around a month and a half-ish.
I contacted Valve, and called FedEx customer support a few times and wasn't able to get any answers on what the deal was. My local distribution center is notorious for delays, but I figured something was up.
I wound up messaging @FedExHelp on twitter, where they were insanely helpful. They told me that the tracking number I'd been provided wasn't associated with any address, and that there was only a Zipcode (As well as the weird USPS/FedEx discrepency thing). They did some work and were finally able to trap the package at a facility before it had the chance to go off for more ping-pong fun, and printed an entirely new label for the package. The status is finally listed as being on a vehicle, ready for delivery, in my city.
There are a couple mentions of this Zipcode-only issue in the recent Availability/Order Megathread, as well.
I don't know if it'll only have been packages sent around specific dates, but one of the users who's mentioned this issue is experiencing it on the full kit order, so it's not just RMA's. Whether or not this is actually a widespread issue or not, no clue, probably/hopefully not, but it's something worth knowing.
If your Index has been sitting dead in the water for a while, or is being shuffled around like mine was, it may be worth bringing up the possible lack of address with FedEx and Steam support to confirm if it's an issue.
EDIT: I finally, actually received my package, and I'm very happy to report that the HMD seems to be in good condition. There are indeed two labels on the package, but both have my correct address on them, so there's definitely some scrutiny as to whether or not this clai
