After the Savoy Truffle

By -

I’ve been impatiently waiting for Bitcoin to break for weeks. We aren’t there yet, but we’re very, very close. It briefly crossed below the psychologically important $80,000 level earlier today, and it is pressing against the trendline. It has NOT broken it yet, but if it does, that’ll be a positive development for the one or two Bitcoin bears on the planet besides myself.

Unrelated to this, I took 120% profits on my SMH puts I bought yesterday. I wouldn’t be surprised if they go up more in value, but I’m just not emotionally designed to deal with stuff that expires in a matter of a few days.
