Cashing out crypto and then?

The next BTC run you were waiting for has certainly run since you wrote the above. I had some BTC bought recently at an average cost of $30K per BTC. It has more than doubled as of today ...5 Mar 2024 ... <[email protected]> wrote:

What real estate is good? Many places are OK. If you look in the best, safe, Ultra Modern neighborhood of Manila called "BGC" you can get a good condo depending on size, amenities, view, floor, etc. from about $100,00 for a studio up to practically infinity like $5 million for a 500m2 penthouse. I just bought a 2 brm 2 bath in the $300,000 range. I like the fact that the prices, condo fees, real estate taxes, and everything else in BGC are maybe 20% or less than in Miami, Phuket or French Riviera costs. Air BnB is legal. Price appreciation is expected to be at least 10% a year in U$A dollars. Rents in BGC can give you a 20% annual yield. Most Manila condos have the problem of rapid deterioration after the developer sells all his units, but Ayala properties have a record of excellent maintenance. I am retired and don't have much to do so if you are in the Philippines and want no-cost advice (if you buy me a hamburger & a beer), feel free to contact me.

The Bitcoin run hasn’t even started. A Bitcoin bull run cycle doesn’t start until you cross previous ATH. Sure going from 16k to 20k can also be referred to as a run but when it comes to bitcoin we speak of “cycles” and the bull cycle hasn’t started yet. Why stop at doubling your money when one can 4x or more? Sit back and relax. You’ll be able to buy 4 times more apartments (at least). GL

Have any of you already perhaps started thinking about an 'exit strategy'? It might be smart to sketch a plan now already. You can't predict the top, but you can be quite wrong and still make a lot by buying more at lower levels during the next bear market. I imagine it could be interesting to evaluate how unstable the price increase is and sell off in parts. I don't think either fundamental or technical analysis will be helpful here. Rather, something that checks how fast we are approaching gold's market cap(?)

Who know, maybe we will reach the top in the coming few months and see a fall before we even get into the next year.

I'd like to gather some ideas about where to put the money in after selling out in the next BTC run.

Currently, I got around 300K in my paper wallet (90% BTC 10% ETH). Beside of that, I got 100K which I use selling daily puts on BTC.
I had 1280 BTC when MtGox went down and made it all disappear, but yeah, what I got now is total 400K USD, and no 60 millions.
I still keep that YUBIKEY with MtGox printed on it which was used to login to MTGox though, maybe I can sell it as a collector item someday.

Anyway, the paper wallet is not creating any yield, the puts are making between 10-90% APY (depends on the day),
which may average 30-60% yearly, especially as it all gets reinvested.

I am pretty satisfied with the current allocation, holding 75% in BTC (and a little ETH) and creating cash yield with the 25%.

My original plan was to exit the market in 2025, and invest the money in a few apartments in Ukraine,
and AIRBNB them (it was the best AIRBNB yield few years back, about 30% ROI yearly). Then the war came,
and I thought to buy real estate in Georgia instead. Then the Russians came, and the market changed and Georgia became uninteresting.
Montenegro was next, but the prices are running away, and it's getting closer to join the Bolshevik EU.

Now, I got no clear idea. Condos in Thailand just lose value and short term AIRBNB is prohibited, land can't be bought as foreigner.
Pretty much the same for VN, Laos and Cambodia, there are some ways to do it, but I don't want to bet all my money on a lease contract.

I stopped investing in stocks after COVID wiped out my margin and turned 120K into 12K. It also doesn't follow fundamentals,
but is highly manipulated. I would also prefer something that isn't tracked or can be connected to me by others.

I thought about investing in a real estate note fund in the US which offers 12% yield, but that 12% are not enough in the current inflationary
environment.

So, lets brainstorm, what could be a good investment at the end of 2025? I expect having a total of around 900K then (worst case)
I don't want to hold again through the bear market.

When I read your post, it seems like you've been quite unlucky with your investments so far! I don't have any good suggestions for you, but I can see there are already some good ideas here that I will also study a bit.

But losing 60 million US$ is almost enough to make someone consider extreme actions.

Stock market is easy - same as crypto

Just price on business cycle and liquidity ignore the rest

Oh and do the Nasdaq 100 etc not individual stocks

You think so?
I got good food, a roof over my head, money in my bank accounts and crypto wallet.
Making money 24/7, no matter if awake or asleep, my bots work for me.
Currently in a >100 sqm rental apartment in a tropical country. A swimming pool meters away.

Would an additional 60 million USD make my life so much different? (I don't do coke)

Enjoy Thailand!

I wasn't talking about TH, there are lots of other nice places around.
But you might be reading my mind, as I'm planning to spend a month (or two) there in August.

There was a guy back in the day who paid for his pizza 10,000 Bitcoins... It's not that easy to foresee the future.
