Dax celebrates figures from E.ON and Co. Bitcoin over $73,000 ⤵️

$BTC (+0.6%)
Bitcoin over 73,000$. Who would have thought it? You always notice how sentiment towards stocks is when they are in the basement. Now you're constantly being asked whether it's still worth getting in. You can see how emotional most people are on the stock market. When it's low, everything always sucks, even though it's sometimes worth buying, and when it's rising, it's the best there is. Why not get in when the price is right? You don't just have to understand this in relation to BTC, but in general.

But why is there only ever talk of BTC? What about $ETH (+3.19%)
Ethereum. It too has more than doubled in value in recent months. It's important to remember that BTC now has approved spot ETFs and ETH is only just being discussed. I could therefore very well imagine that ETH will outperform BTC at some point in the ongoing bull market (only if the spot ETF really comes, of course). Crypto has now taken up over 50% of my portfolio. However, profits will be left to run until the targets are reached and then the reallocation will take place. It remains very exciting to see what dimensions will be reached here. However, I also think that this will be the last strong bull market in the sector now that the large institutions will dominate it.

Yesterday there were again some figures from Germany and Europe. Let's just take a look at a few of them. The market certainly celebrated them!
