Difficult to estimate when it Crashes (Was: Comparison energy consumption and protocol speed)

Cross-posted to 2 groups.

Hi,

Difficult to estimate when it Crashes,
not sure whether we are weeks or years
away from it. When I look at the current

charts, it makes me think the critical mass
is very close, where some whales will first
take the opportunity to take home some gains,

and then the domino stones might fall:

https://coinmarketcap.com/

It has a steady fluctuation of 10%. But
messages like DOJ CLEARED TO SELL $6.5B
IN SEIZED SILK ROAD BITCOIN tell me,

its all about disolving Bitcoin, and the
one who closes the door last will get
some bread crumbs. And these are usually

the stupid retail investors, who were too
stupid to do Bitcoin in the early days because
of the technical hurdles, and have now

been lured into ETFs.

Bye

P.S.: For example Blackrock doesn't
owns the Bitcoins, will not be affected.
Blackrock owns nothing, they only organize

funds and ETFs which mediate Bitcoin between
sellers and buyers and they act as custodians.
They don't own any Bitcoins. They don't care

whether Bitcoin goes up or down.
