Strive CEO talking infinity Bitcoin and debt crisis thoughts

[Sam Sterling]

Morning guys, just saw the latest headlines about the Strive CEO calling for Bitcoin to go parabolic as the fiat debt machine finally breaks. Ngl, headlines like "going to infinity" always trigger my inner skeptic, especially when the FOMO crowd starts piling in near local resistance. Back in the 2021 bull run, I let those exact same macro doom narratives blind me to basic risk management, and I ended up holding bags all the way down the correction while my spot bags bled.

Look, the fundamental thesis on sovereign debt and currency devaluation is solid, and I do hold a core long-term stack for that exact reason. But trading the macro narrative is a whole different beast compared to just HODLing. If you are trying to leverage up on these headlines, you are just asking to get wicked out by market makers hunting liquidity. Protect your capital, keep your position sizes reasonable, and never trade without a clear invalidation level just because some CEO on TV sounds super bullish.

How are you guys playing these macro headlines right now, are you aggressively scaling in or just sitting on your spot bags?

The debt crisis talk is getting louder every day but let's be real, the market only cares when the FOMC minutes drop or we get a surprise CPI print. Strive CEO isn't wrong about the trajectory though, the spending is insane. BTC is the only thing that makes sense when the dollar is getting debased this fast.

Spot on @LucasBennet. It's so easy to get sucked into the daily macro panic, but trying to trade every CPI knee-jerk or FOMC headline is a fast track to getting chopped to pieces.

The long-term debt trajectory is obviously ugly, but for now, the best move is just zooming out. I'm sitting on my hands, watching the Daily and 4H charts, and waiting for clean setups to develop. No need to overtrade the noise.
