Big Money Is Here, The Cycles Are Broken. Get Your Wish List Out.
Things have changed in the world of crypto. It is no longer the time of enthusiasts and geeks supporting the projects that they saw value in. When the market has whales in it, things change. When the market has super-whales, who could literally buy up the entire coin-market, then nothing about the market can be relied upon.
The pundits say things like "The stock market lost a billion dollars…", but serious investors say, "Money doesn't vanish, it just gets moved."
The only thing we can really do is watch where the money is flowing. And right now, money is looking for yield. Soon it will be looking for safety.
We are not in a bull market, nor a bear market. We are in a vulture market.
And we are going to watch the old financial system eat itself as it tries to move into the new system.
How is bitcoin's price not moving?
Well, there are people willing to sell it for $100k.
Almost no action is happening on the exchanges. All that is there is whale manipulation. Putting up huge sell walls to keep people out, and make everyone depressed thinking the price is never going higher. But, the sell wall is an illusion. If that price gets approached, it will vanish.
People who have had 1000s of bitcoin from the early days are quite happy to get life changing money for a bit of their stash. And they are selling over-the-counter, not on the market. And probably both sides are tied by NDEs to not say what the price was.
That said, there is only so much bitcoin that can be pried out of people's hands for $100k. And soon, it will hit. The price of bitcoin will probably not move slowly up, but quickly to the next plateau. $250k and $1m are good bets.
And this will continue as long as banksters are able to print money.
Ripple/XRP to replace SWIFT
It doesn't matter if it is Ripple/XRP that replaces SWIFT, it is going to be replaced, when the banksters decide on who is the winner of handling the international flow of money. After that, all the old fiat tries to flow into the new system.
This is a really weird scenario, because we haven't accurately modeled such, we have no previous thing to measure against. When we have watched retail FOMO into bitcoin, we have seen the spike. What happens when banksters FOMO into an asset?
How many will dig in their heals and try to maintain loyalty to the old system? SWIFT has been very profitable, so they may try to buy people's loyalties. It could be a hellava fight, even if everyone is mostly on-board with the change.
The big thing about XRP taking over as the exchange liquidity is that it frees up billions of dollars that are just sitting their to allow currency swaps to be able to happen. Meaning, a lot of cash, that has been locked up, will now be looking for a new home.
More money that will try to move into the new system (it was already there for exchange/cross boarder settlement), so it would be natural for it to wind up in XRP. But, it may go to the very old standby, gold.
XRP is going to go to dizzying dollar amounts. Its a mathematical certainty.
The old financial system collapses, and the banksters system collapses
Yes, the debt based fiat currency system is about to implode, go poof. But, this is not the end. The new energies do not support the banksters' structure. So, the banksters try to move to a new system, only to find it collapsing too.
If it is not fair and equal for all the users of the money, it will fall apart.
If a group tries to control others by controlling the money, it will fall apart.
If there is usury, it will fall apart.
So, all that banksters have to do is give up all the things they hold most dearly to. I am betting that they don't.
And so, all of this currency is going to be looking for places that are safe. Crypto, Commodities and Gold. So, your crypto bags are about to pump to the moon, and a bit further.
The things is, these prices will not be stable, they only show up for a little while, while all the currency is moving.
And, while money is FLOWING into crypto, there will be lots of people selling everything so that they can get some crypto too. (or just to afford food) So, have your wish list already planned out.
The four year cycle is done for.
The cycles will now be more dependent on weird things like the phases of the moon, whether Trump is pleased today, and how many banksters have leaped out of buildings.
It is about how much fear there is that the old system is collapsing.
It is about how well T.H.E.Y. sell their new system, and if people "buy" it.
It is about how long the banksters can act nice, while rubbing their hands gleefully while thinking of turning off access to any bank account they want.
So, serious money is coming to crypto.
Bitcoin will go past $1m and on its way to $10m… before the FRN is no longer accepted and we no longer have a measuring stick.
XRP will go to $1000, maybe $10,000, because that is the level that the banksters need to move the amount of money business needs to move.
Bitcoin is probably destined to be the thing all other things are priced in.
And XRP is going to go way up, and then disappear. Like the banksters get caught with their hands in the cookie jar, while everyone learns how evil the banksters have been.
Now, it is not about four year cycles anymore, it is about how much fear there is: FOMO + FUD + actual fear that banks are no longer safe.
So, have your homestead property picked out. Make a list of the things you will need to build your homestead. Make plans for that business/charity that you would do if only you had gobs of money. If you know what you want, you will be prepared when they go on fire-sale. Don't miss out. Don't keep your money in systems that are going away. Don't be afraid to pull the trigger, and trade your cryptos for the things you want.
