CJem OP : Proof's in your own posts.  I don't need to convince anyone else of my conviction.  But people like you seem to be hell bent on convincing others.  Makes me wonder just WHY?

CJem : The entire human race, at the least those of us who has the economic means to participate.  But the question really should be "guaranteed by WHAT?" to be more accurate and relevant.  It is guaranteed by the law of supply and demand coupled with the law of human nature of greed and fear.

CJem : In other words, the long term (more than 4 years) uptrend is guaranteed as already evidenced by the historical trend.  However, WHEN a certain price is going to be is pretty much a guess work.  So "$100,000 by the end of 2024" or like that should be taken as someone's guess.  But it would be safer guess than "$10,000 by the end of 2024" because it is aligned with the long term immutability of the trend.

CJem : Excellent point.  To which I'll add something else to ponder.  Maybe the real perma bulls don't bother to get involved in day to day, even week to week price fluctuations and related points of view?  Maybe it's the short term trading bulls who SAY (or THINK) they are perma bulls who take offense to short traders?  I  would love to see BTC go lower so I can accumulate more.  C'mon shorts, let's go.  40k anyone?

CJem : Of course I'll be kicking myself for not selling at 64k and buying back at 40k instead.  That's human nature of greed and fear.  If I can continue to ignore what comes to me naturally and stick with the long term plan, then and only then would I be a perma bull.  It remains to be seen. Not only for me but for everyone who consider oneself to be a Bitcoin maximalist.

CJem : You got it

CJem : They're doing the same thing for TSLA

CJem : If you're a long term investor doing DCA, this is actually a nice buying opportunity.  Those who already made their lumpsome purchase will have to have patience which WILL be generously rewarded in few years.  But it still doesn't change the fact that they are doing something that is evil and manipulative.
