I thought it was delightful - Barclays is putting out a sell recommendation on $COIN (-0%) Coinbase before the numbers.
And the share price promptly jumps by 25%.
This is now just one current example of many....
They always turn like a flag in the wind. And the unpredictable throws every serious forecast over the edge.
🚨𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗨𝗽𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲: 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸 𝗶𝗻 𝗖𝗿𝘆𝗽𝘁𝗼🚨
This week has been a particularly turbulent week in the crypto markets. The total cryptocurrency market cap started at $1.58 trillion, and reached lows of $1.13 trillion on Thursday, a 27% decrease, however this does not paint a full picture of what has happened.
𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗱? 🤔
Since the beginning of May, many cryptocurrencies have seen their values plummet, and continue to do so. $BTC (-0.57%) is 17% less than a week ago, $ETH (-0.05%) 25% down, $BNB (-0.41%) and $XRP (-0.77%) down 21% and 28% respectively, but they aren’t the most high-profile losses.
🟥 $BTC (-0.57%) Bitcoin, $30,093.50 (🔽-16.88%)*
𝗪𝗵𝗼 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗶𝗴𝗴𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗹𝗼𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘀? 📉
Terraforms Labs, whose main coins are TerraUSD $UST (-1.22%) and Terra $LUNA have seen horrible drops. $UST (-1.22%) is meant to be pegged to the US Dollar and has dropped by almost 83%* in value, whereas $LUNA (-0.75%) has effectively had its entire value whiped out, trading at a fraction of a cent. Binance has gone as far as banning trading of these to Terraforms protocols.
🟥 $UST (-1.22%) TerraUSD, $0.1705 (🔽-82.94%)*
🟥 $LUNA (-0.75%) Terra, $0.0000516 (🔽-99.99%)*
𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗖𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲?
This week Coinbase $COIN (-5.78%) , one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges, released their quarterly earnings, and they did not meet analyst expectations at all.
🟥 EPS: -$1.26 vs $0.91 expected (-238.20%)
🟥 Revenue: $1.17bn vs $1.48bn expected (-20.98%)
They saw a 19% drop in monthly users. What’s perhaps more of a worry to investors and users alike is the update on the platform’s risk. They are warning that in the event of bankruptcy, its users might lose all the cryptocurrency stored in their accounts (more here: https://bit.ly/3FKFkFW)
𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗼-𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗱 ‘𝗖𝗿𝘆𝗽𝘁𝗼 𝗕𝗿𝗼𝘀’?
Tesla $TSLA (-9.97%) CEO, Elon Musk, Coinbase $COIN (-5.78%) CEO and trader Brian Armstrong, MicroStrategy chief Michael Saylor, and twins Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss are effectively the ‘horsemen of crypto’, or the ‘Crypto Bros’ and they’ve seen their cumulative crypto wealth slashed by $20bn during this crash.
$TSLA (-9.97%) ‘s $1.5bn gamble on Bitcoin has fallen flat; Saylor’s wealth has fallen from $8.5bn six months ago to potentially less than $1bn (just a measly millionaire😬) and $COIN (-0%) has traded at 84% less than at their IPO date.
🟥 $TSLA (-9.97%) Tesla, $728.00 (🔽-17.83%)**
🟥 $COIN (-5.78%) Coinbase, $58.50 (🔽-48.00%)**

This week was a particularly turbulent one in the crypto markets. The total market capitalization of cryptocurrencies started at $1.58 trillion and hit a low of $1.13 trillion on Thursday, down 27%, but that doesn't give a full picture of what happened.
𝘞𝘢𝘴 𝘪𝘴𝘵 𝘱𝘢𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘦𝘳𝘵?
Since the beginning of May, many cryptocurrencies have lost significant value and continue to lose value every day. For example, Bitcoin is $BTC (-0.57%) Worth 32% less than it was a week ago. Ethereum, the second largest cryptocurrency, is down 36%, while other major coins such as Binance Coin $BNB (-0.41%) (-41%) and $XRP (-0.77%) XRP (-47%) have fallen even more.
𝘞𝘰𝘳𝘢𝘯 𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘨𝘵 𝘥𝘢𝘴?
The culprit may be. $LUNA (-0.75%) Luna, a cryptocurrency that had a market cap of around 27 billion a week ago. Now $LUNA (-0.75%) but is almost worthless. Investors are dumping many other digital currencies, which has undermined confidence in crypto markets.
𝘞𝘢𝘳𝘶𝘮 𝘪𝘴𝘵 𝘓𝘶𝘯𝘢 𝘧𝘢𝘴𝘵 𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘭𝘰𝘴?
Luna is a cryptocurrency that is related to the currency TerraUSD $UST (-1.22%) related. Both were issued by Do Kwon and his company Terraform Labs in the United States. TerraUSD is a so-called stablecoin whose value is supposed to be stable. Kwon's promise: At any point in time, one TerraUSD unit can be exchanged for one dollar worth of Luna coins. TerraUSD, on the other hand, lost its price stability in early May for unknown reasons. The value of Luna declined as a result. At the same time, the case undermines public trust in stablecoins.

Major investors such as Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla ( $TSLA (-9.97%) ), Brian Armstrong, the CEO of Coinbase ($COIN (-5.78%) ), MicroStrategy chief executive Michael Saylor, and twins Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss are the "Horsemen of Cryptocurrencies" or the "Crypto Bros," whose cumulative crypto assets dropped by $20 billion during the crash.
The $1.5 billion investment of $TSLA (-9.97%) with Bitcoin has failed; Saylor's assets have fallen from $8.5 billion six months ago to possibly less than a billion dollars and $COIN (-5.78%) was trading 84% lower than when it went public.

The crypto platform Binance has banned the trading of UST and LUNA. What do you guys think about the ban?
