Last week the Fear and Greed Index was at 60 and today it's 48; as things get bearish that is the time to buy the dip.

Bottom line: As I type Bitcoin is trading at $26,877.26 and for the week (M-F) Bitcoin lost $2,110.72. We continue to waiting for Bitcoin to break the $30K level once again - will it do it by this time next week? Leave me a comment if you think so!
My belief continues to be that no matter what happens I will be okay. Which means, have enough at play to move the needle if the market pops, have some dry powder if it drops, and remain calm and move on if it goes sideways. Keep buying the dip, be smart, stay safe, stack sats, and HODL as "Matty Sats" would say!
