Hi everyone,

Since I’ve been making good profits with $MSTR (-1,92 %) , I decided on short notice to take a short position, which I closed today with a nice profit.

My long-term investment in $BTC (-1,65 %) remains in place and unaffected.

I’m now waiting for another entry point to open another long position in Strategy.

How’s it going with you guys?

(Update: No idea why it says 5% there—I entered at €3.60, so that’s about a 40% profit.)

The Maastricht Treaty requires eurozone countries to maintain an annual budget deficit below 3 percent and public debt below 60 percent of GDP. At the height of the euro crisis in 2012, France and Germany were still on par at around 90 percent. Since then, Germany has moved closer to meeting the Maastricht criteria, with its debt now at about 64 percent, while France’s debt has risen to about 117 percent—and this during a period of historically low interest rates. That is why rising long-term interest rates are so problematic for Paris: if existing debt is refinanced at higher rates, the interest burden will skyrocket.

Politicians are underestimating the problem: Some candidates are bringing up the possibility of a debt haircut, as was done in Greece before the bailout package and the IMF intervention. The yield spread between French and German government bonds is already widening significantly, while former crisis-hit countries like Spain are not under pressure to the same extent. This is a warning sign for the eurozone; after all, France is one of its largest economies. We can expect downward pressure on the euro’s value and, consequently, additional inflation. This could affect non-government stores of value such as $GOLD and $BTC (-1,65 %) could benefit from this.

You can invest in Bitcoin through the following platform: $BITC (-2,12 %)

I hear this phrase a lot these days, even from people who are just getting started with Bitcoin. But let's be honest: For 99% of people, that simply doesn’t reflect reality. 🛑

The Psychological Factor & Selling Too Early

Anyone who bought Bitcoin at €1 would, in all likelihood, not have held on until it reached €60,000 or €100,000.

Here’s a simple example: Imagine you had invested 1,000 € back then (1,000 BTC). If the price rises to 10 €, you suddenly have €10,000 in your account. Who would just let that sit there, with such a new asset, when the media is simultaneously talking about a bubble?

The reality: Almost everyone would have sold in a panic once the price doubled, quintupled, or—at the latest—during the first brutal -80% crash. To actually lock in a return like that back then, you needed nerves of steel, or you really had to be a die-hard Bitcoin believer even back then—or you simply had to have forgotten your password. 😉

At €1, Bitcoin was a high-risk experiment with an uncertain outcome. Today, we’re buying an established, global asset with clear regulation and institutional infrastructure. While those who buy today pay more, they’re investing in a far more secure and mature network.

A look at the current status quo:

• Institutional Adoption: Major asset managers (e.g., BlackRock via ETFs) are invested. Bitcoin has arrived in the traditional financial system.
• Governments hold BTC: More and more countries are using Bitcoin as a strategic reserve currency.
• Long History & Network Security: BTC has survived every market cycle, the network is more secure than ever, and global adoption is growing steadily.

🔥 The days of strong returns are NOT over—they’re just beginning!

Anyone who thinks they’ve missed the boat is sorely mistaken. We’re just at the beginning of a bull market that has the potential to generate massive returns again over the next few years.

Conclusion—What can we learn from this?

Looking in the rearview mirror gets you nowhere. Instead of lamenting the perfect entry point that’s already passed, it’s best to rely on DCA (Dollar-Cost Averaging).

An automated, monthly, or weekly savings plan takes the emotion out of it—no matter where the price stands right now. And maybe it’s simply better to hold onto your Bitcoin rather than sell everything at the first available opportunity.

What do you think?

Would you have, or did you actually stick with it all the way through to today, or would you have hit the “sell” button as soon as it doubled in value?👇💬

Stay safe & stack Sats!

Hi everyone,

I'd like to hear your thoughts. This is about my investment portfolio.

$VWRL (-0,71 %) : approx. €273,000 (+45%)

$TDIV (+0,31 %) : approx. €117,000 (+20%)

$ALV (-0,37 %) : approx. €29,000 (+65%)

$BTC (-1,65 %) approx. 42k (+10%)

The situation: Over the next one to two years, I’d like to buy a property abroad for €300,000 to €350,000

using only my own funds. This means I’ll have to withdraw a large portion of my portfolio.

My dilemma: If I sell now, I might miss out on further price gains. If I stay invested and there’s a major market correction, the purchase could fall through in the worst-case scenario. I’ll have to pay taxes either way, so it’s really a question of timing.

I’m currently weighing these options:

1. Sell everything I need for the purchase now and park the funds in a money market account or money market ETF

2. Secure only a core holding ($ALV and $TDIV) and let the $VWRL run

3. Sell in stages, for example in three tranches by summer 2027

4. Stay invested with a fixed rule: sell at −15% or as soon as a specific property becomes available

5. Hedge using puts

Of course, I’d love to have the best of both worlds: a secure purchase without giving up too much return. I realize that doesn’t exist. I’m looking for the best compromise.

My questions for you:

• Who has faced the same decision, and how did you handle it?

• Would you do it the same way again today?

• Is there an option I’m overlooking?

Thank you all!
