Sometimes you have those days in crypto when everything flies up and you have to keep up with everything at the same time. You no longer have time for anything other than just looking at your screen and you live in the 'trades'. Everything seems to be going well and your portfolio can grow nicely in terms of dollars.
You go to sleep with a good feeling, and the next morning you wake up ... and everything is RED. Not the friendly green you expected, but the RED is screaming at you from your screen. And even though you know that these are the moments to pay more attention and buy the dip… these days never make me so happy. We are in a bloody bull market. Yes, I know there are pullbacks, I know that corrections will happen on the way to the top… but that doesn't mean I should be happy when I see those red numbers screaming from my screen again.
But because I have absolutely no influence on it… I have now also learned not to take too much of it into myself. Put it aside and start doing other things.
Fortunately the weather was nice the last few days, so I went outside with the dogs a lot… only that means that unfortunately I don't have the opportunity to be present at Hive and Leo much now. It is a matter of making a choice, sitting inside and being here ... which is of course fine for a while ... but because I have mainly been inside all winter, and the dogs also like to be outside enjoying the sun, the choice is now to leave my PC for what it is.
For a few years now I have always had the idea that I should have an Ipad to be able to do my things outside. Because now that I have also dived into trading again, it is not at all convenient to not be able to keep an eye on my trades, it is not at all convenient that I will be outside all day in the summer without any real 'control' over my gains or losses. You can watch it on a phone, but not as well as on a larger screen. And blogging from my phone… No, sorry, that really works for me. It's terribly difficult to create a good blog from a phone. Respect for the people who do. But it is not for me.
Which made me think again… I want an iPad for the summer. Then I can just spend my days outdoors. Nice working with the dogs outside, working in the garden, turning wood ... and outside with a drink continue to write my blogs, be present at Leo and Hive, because it's not that I don't want to get involved here. Gladly even… only time does not usually allow it. I often have that I am outside… without a PC.
Then why not a cheap tablet? Or a cheap laptop? Well, there is a reason… I have really discovered digital drawing and I would really like to continue with it. At the moment I do that in the evenings when I don't have to write blogs, when I don't have to do other things… in short, I don't think I have enough time for it. But that does not alter the fact that I really enjoy it, and I think I can do quite a bit in it ...
An example of what I'm still working on is a drawing in manga style.
As you can see, this drawing is far from finished, but I am still reasonably satisfied so far, and it is mainly about the finish to really make it pop. The lines still need to be made tighter. And certainly in the face of the girl a few things can be changed and updated. In addition, of course, the shadows and highlights, but when all of that has happened. Then I think it is something I can be proud of.
And it is also a lot of fun to do. Especially when we have red days again, days when Bitcoin falls, it can be a very good idea to buy something if you want to hold it for a long time. But it can be a dangerous time to trade. Which makes me want to keep a close eye on the trade I'm in. Certainly because altcoins are also not insensitive to the changes of Bitcoin.
Although I did read today, that for the first time in 3 years, the Bitcoin market dominance threatens to drop below 50%. And that… that could be a perfect time for the Altcoins. The fact is, once the Bitcoin market dominance drops below 50%, the magic for the altcoins is about to begin. Whether you believe in an Altcoin season, as soon as the Bitcoin marketdominance comes under 50%, the prices of many altcoins shoot through the roof. At least, that is what happened in the past every time.
Does this also mean that we are at the end of this bull run? I have no idea. My gut says not, my gut says that we haven't even really started yet… but, I am not a financial advisor. So don't hold on to this.
Whatever it may be, it is certainly exciting times in crypto. And that's exactly where have to make sure that I don't miss the actionn. Certainly I want to make profits in trades, I want to avoid losses in those same trades. But I also want to be outside ... Aah, choices!
So that would mean that I could only spend a little time away from my PC ... and that would mean that I would have to be 'forced' to stay inside this summer ... And the latter, that's something I really don't want at all. Especially when the weather is nice I want to enjoy it as much as I can. Another winter is coming, in crypto, but also in the Netherlands… Then I can still sit inside enough. Yeah, I know, It's all relative. And of course, nobody is forcing me to stay inside, and to stare at my screen all day. I know! It's just another excuse for me to justify my wish for an Ipad for myself.
So many people, so many wishes… it is a fact. I'm going to look again if I can find very nice offers… because for the time being it will remain a dream, and there will really have to be some changes before I can fulfill my wish.
