Maybe it's just my positive personality, but I see this as a path to making (relatively) easy money.

Talking of irrational behaviours, I think the 10 year anniversary of the Bitcoin blockchain next January may well be unreasonably significant.

Congrats on your 5 years down the rabbit hole, btw

Why thank you. On reflection I don't think it's made me a better person, but certainly a richer one.

As for your first bit, once you've sat through a cycle or two the signs become painfully obvious whereas if it's all new to someone they're going to play straight into your hands.

The thing I don't quite get is that if they delve into old forum posts they'd find the exact same panics and emotions with a zero or two removed. If they'd sat there they would've turned out fine.
