Inflation and the Crazy Crypto Markets

By: Nadeem_Walayat

One of the reasons for investing in crypto's is INFLATION i.e. fiat currency is constantly being devalued whilst many crypto's are limited to print run such as Bitcoin. So whilst I have not bought any Bitcoin to date due to not meeting my price targets so far. However, going forward I will be retaining all mined bitcoin regardless of what happens to the price, roughly I mine about $300 worth of bitcoin per month across 2 desktops.

Meanwhile I have limit orders all over the place attempting to capitalise on the crazy crypto markets. For instance recently Litecoin first dropped to to $100 and then spiked to $300. Which triggered me long at $112 and $118, current price is $185. So I am seeking to capitalise on such highly volatility price moves in both directions due to immature trading platforms and low volume i.e. where Litecoin is concerned I have limit orders to buy at $146 and below with limit orders to sell at $280 and above.

My primary focus where crypto's are concerned is in accumulating the alt coins such as Ravencoin, Cardano, Pokadot, Chainlink etc as offering the most upside, where the strategy is to cover a dozen crypto's to increase the chances of limit order triggering spikes. For instance I also got triggered long on a similar crazy crypto price spike with XLM. So lots of wide limit orders across a dozen crypto's waiting for the spikes to do their work which even happens with the likes of Bitcoin as I illustrated in my recent video.
