Shambalay Me Hearties -

let's ride the mountains high... and forget the Massive Steemian Prophets, I unfollowed the last today - you may have noticed they're just greedy marketers hyping or creating altcoin pumps, who if they talk about major cryptos, they'll tell you "to the moon" in a bull market while in a bear market they'll go "weeell, it's either up or down y'know..."

And of course you'll faithfully upvote them to give your prophets massive profits, never asking why these gurus are wasting many hours a day trying to earn money on a pretty autistic social network, successful experts that they are... steemit is all about selling you stuff, you DO understand that ? That's why I won't be around here much, just on and off.

Be that as it may, what to do ?

1. Get out of the market until it starts going up in earnest - in March or May or June - there's NO way to tell.
   The best guarantee that the pronounced bear market we're now obviously in will actually reverse, is a more massive dip than we had up to now. Patience is a virtue, hodling is for fools - you would be nuts to hodle if you bought BTC above $4000.
2. Day-trade, as there's always ups and down and you can profit from that - but you need discipline and a tactic, and really concentrate on what you do.
