With the return of the bulls, we also see the proliferation of prophets; returning ones who have hidden in a cave since early 2018, and new ones who understand enough about crypto to make predictions but have yet to discover the full complexity of this new market and its inherent unpredictability.
In his enlightening book Antifragile Nicholas Nassim Taleb explains that to become antifragile (people who have not yet read the book would use robust instead) one has to become independent on all aspects one cannot control. Design a plan which does not need any predictions. To survive, one must eliminate any strategy that bears the risk of ruin.
Do you think anybody knows the price of Bitcoin one, two, or five years from now? Of course not. However, the price will undoubtedly fall onto a few of the thousands of predictions that are published these days, thereby giving birth to a random bunch of new prophets.
Taleb writes, "There are ample empirical findings to the effect that providing someone with a random numerical forecast increases his risk-taking, even if the person knows the projections are random." I have witnessed this first-hand a few times.
What Antifragile suggests is to design a strategy for life (or investments) which avoids ruin above all things. If you manage to stay in the game long enough, you have the opportunity to overcome setbacks and succeed.
Any step to get out of debt is helpful in this respect. Concerning profits that have been reaped by accepting potentially ruinous risks, Taleb quotes Seneca with "He is in debt, whether he borrowed from another person or from fortune."
To summarize the above: Don't hope! Try to do better.
(I highly recommend the above-cited book to anyone who wishes to strengthen his or her decision-making.)
