This PSA brought to you by an "expert trader". Sell low, buy back higher, pay cap gains. 🤣

Man I remember the days where Tone was all we had for podcast celebrities. Man, everything was so ratchet back then.

I remember Tone trying to "debate" with Roger Ver which was always such an absolute cringefest.

LOL these where the days where we would have to sit through some dimwit podcaster taking literal crazy people (like Andrew Desantis or Daniel Krawicz) or seriously.

Tone seems like a pretty decent guy to me, but post is still funny

He seems like a nice guy to have a beer with. But he's awful at his job.

It gets even worse when he says he wasn't wrong by selling and potentially avoiding an unrealized loss? Sounds like he's just trying to maximize cap gains taxes.

That first reply. ☠️

🤣

To be fair to him, he trades from his retirement account so he does not pay cap gain taxes on his trades.

Ah i think that makes it even dumber actually. Trying to trade bitcoin to remove it's volatility in an account designated for long-term holding is super high time preference activity for what should be a low-time preference account. And we all know how bitcoin moves, often times unpredictably and in huge jumps. Trading in and out means you're much more likely to miss these moves.

On top of that, he trades iBIT so it’s all Fiat anyway. I think he should just be stacking sats but he probably didn’t stack enough for how early he was and he’s trying to make up for it by trading.

Oooph.

Yeah people that stacked enough aren’t out there trading in their retirement account, they’re retired somewhere nice 😂

The dude's just a trader, period. I totally understand the urge to play that game. I dabbled in lnmarkets for a bit. He's pretty good at it iirc; he understands risk. I'm sure his total positions are negligible compared to his stack.

Shit ain't for me though. I have real work to do.

This. His exit and entry prove he was dumber than the market. Moreover, he did this, pondered it, typed it, reread it, then hit send. At every point he said, "fuck yeah".

Exactly. There are so many layers to this shit sandwich it's unbelievable

I’m not advocating for his trading, I’m simply saying he was at least smart about the cap gains part. He should just be stacking sats.

I got that now - thanks. Tones got that tradetard mindset of thinking he can beat the market

If I understand his process, Tone should sell again, lock in those losses

what is a cap gain? market cap?

#BTCn00b

capital gains tax. Someone stated this is his retirement account though which i'd argue makes it even dumber to be actively trading an account like this

ok I see. thanks

baseball cap to shield blinding SUN

no cap crap maybe, like i type now=lol

407 idiots liked it apparently 🤷‍♂️

Never underestimate how many idiots are out there.

Depending on your client, you may only be shown 🧡 instead of actual reactions...chill

Yes,

Tone is a trader; he's prob trying to minimize his cap gains :mindblown_sm:

And after he posts that he 100% long it dips below 100k. 🤦

Lmao so perfect I absolutely love it. Dudes out there reading tea leaves and try to time the market.
