According to Rainbow Theory™ the price goes back down to "BUY"/"Basically a Fire Sale" area prior to every halving. Next halving is around March 2024
According to Rainbow math, the price could be as low as pretty much exactly the price right now, ~$42k, by then.
On the precise day of the halving, the price tends to be a bit higher, so $56k.

NFTs are not inherently ”crypto assets” imo. Yes, they use a blockchain as the issuance/transfer mechanism, but that’s irrelevant. There are dollar-backed and gold-backed ERC-tokens. Are dollars and gold ”crypto assets”? No.
While the NFT space might have emerged from the cryptocurrency space, and many NFT collectors are cryptocurrency enthusiasts, and much of the art therefore is deeply-rooted and connected to the interests of cryptocurrency enthusiasts, that does not make them ”crypto assets”.
As time passes, it will be more and more common that a wide variety of assets are issued and traded on blockchains (stocks etc), but the underlying technology for the registration and transfer of ownership has no impact on the type of asset class something belongs to.
In 2017, if a blockchain went down, I thought it was the scandal of the year.
”Omg how can it be down? Money is ”down”, what, like a server? Money can’t be a server! It can’t be down! People can die if money is down! All must learn about how awful this is so people don’t die!”
Now, I don’t think that way anymore. A blockchain is (should be) one of the most replicated data sets around, if they’re ever going to be money. As long as the data set is around and you have your private key, you can still sign transactions.
Of course, unless you have a payment channel (which would still work even when the baselayer is down), a signed transaction is not a guarantee of payment, but I bet in a mature crypto world, there will be tons of custodial apps that would accept signed transactions as collateral.
1/ A random DeFi story: My colleague @VetleLunde at @ArcaneResearch told me about an arb opportunity on Aug 18 between HEZ<>MATIC. HEZ holders will be able to swap 1 HEZ for 3.5 MATIC after the announced @PolygonHermez launch.
HEZ was trading at $4.18
3.5x MATIC traded at $4.83
2/ At first I did not believe the arb was real--buying HEZ was essentially buying MATIC at a 13.5% discount if the merger would happen as announced. It was a long time since I made an effort to chase easy arbs manually in crypto (I thought they would be gone by now).
3/ There are a number of risks and limitations that can cause a discount. In this case, the obvious ones were:
- What is the % that the merger does not happen?
- How long will it take until the merger?
- How expensive is it to short $MATIC for said duration?
- How liquid is $HEZ?
Since the bet excluded stablecoins like USDT and USDC, here’s a chart of just ETH on @arbitrum which alone accounts for more than 10x of LN.
Of course this was going to happen. I can’t understand anyone who thought this was not going to happen. The weird part is I think those who bet against me did not do so because of timeline, but because they actually thought Bitcoin’s L2 TVL would keep growing faster than Ethereum
