Is it actually safe to say 'Trump is now the king of the market' because with what we have seen so far for days now he has actually shown that he is in charge and anyone trying to go against him will have himself to be blamed, i hope he settles the issue between him and the chinese president because it is affecting the market badly, if it continues, do you think we may see BTC at 40k?

You went too low in this prediction, I don’t think we are going to see Bitcoin reach that price again. We have passed that and don’t see it going back there again unless we are in the bearish trend already which the market doesn’t seem to look so. The market may badly be performing now and all due to Trump tariffs, this was not what we were expecting but we just have to ride along with it because the market can’t be free and not be affected by this policies. If we see bitcoin below $50K before we see a bull run this year, many will lose hope and settle that the bearish market is already upon us, so $40K is already a price I think we should say Bitcoin is already in a full time bearish trend by then.

If I have any crypto at that stage, I will use it to enjoy what will be the rest of my life. I will keep in mind the fact my loved ones will either inherit my estate or be given it during my life. It is about just finding the balance to know how much to give them and how much to leave them as inheritance.

That's such an interesting perspective! Because the journey is truly more important than the destination. Caring for our families for decades is way more significant than the amount of inheritance we leave our grandkids!

I'd love to do that too, but for now, I can only use a portion of my crypto income to pay bills and buy a few little gifts for my loved ones. Doubt and fear made me miss out on so many opportunities in previous seasons, and now I need to try harder, but the market has become so much more unpredictable.

people often say this when having a financial discussion and issue this statement either at the beginning, the middle, the end or just somewhere in the discussion to basically serve as a word of caution and at the same time legally protecting themselves just in case anything goes wrong. It's their own way of saying, this is just my personal opinion as I'm not a financial adviser nor a certified professional, you do your own personal research to further verify what am saying.

If you are into finance and you give financial advice that didn't go as you predicted, there is every reason you can be sue and jail and because crypto market is very volatile, people can lose money very easy and if such happens, they can sue you for given wrong advice and to counter this in the future, they put not your financial advice.

Mh preference is never take any financial advice from anyone in crypto because many things they say are not fact but speculations and speculation can change even if they are very certain about somethings, things change rapidly in the crypto space.

When you have had people build up their expectations over a long period on a particular thing and they are not getting the expected results, you will see their desire for that thing will be deeply reduced.

Your friend had many expectations placed on crypto, and he is not getting the desirable results, that is why he seems to be fade up with it because what he saw in the 2021 bull run is not what he is seeing in 2025 when many thought the market is supposed to be booming by now.

However, you will actually not blame him because he has no long term vision of hodling Bitcoin

I'm not against taking risks however that doesn't mean you should take risks without research or take blind risks in essence. Basically you have to put in time into understanding a particular ecosystem and that's one thing most people are not ready to do which in the end puts them in loss.

Smart risks matter since it wouldn't be a good move to pump all your liquidity into a project you are not even sure of the win probability and in the end lose in all.

Not everyone wants to buy bitcoin, some people don't even know what it is. It's a technology that still needs to be widely publicized, and the common people are even afraid of it  , due to some of the negative repercussions that the media gives to the asset.
