I have been hodling BTC since 2013. Unfortunately, not enough to change my life!

These days, I feel caught between two worlds:

• Sometimes I think Bitcoin has had a good run, but now it is just another investment, with a fairly symmetric risk/reward profile.
• Other times, I think the world is going crazy and Bitcoin is the only way out.

What do you guys think could cause another 10x run? Do you think there is one coming?

Edit: Funny how asking a question that isn’t based on “the price will just keep going up forever” doesn’t seem to get many upvotes here.

I am 45 and, like most people here, lived my whole life thinking everyone imagines the way I do.

A friend of mine was telling me a story. To explain the story, he briefly mentioned:

Friend: (...) I have this thing called aphantasia and

Me: Really? What is that?

Friend: It is a sort of condition in which I can't picture things in my mind.

Me: What do you mean?

Friend: Like, when I tell you to imagine an apple, you can see the apple in your mind. I can't.

Me: Oh no. When we imagine an apple, we don't picture it clearly. We have the idea of an apple. (We = normal people)

Friend: I know, you have the idea, but you can also visualize it. Like the color, a little leaf...

Me: Oh no, don't worry. No one can do that. When we say we can visualize it, it is a way of saying we have the concept of an apple. And we can imagine it. But it's not like we can see it as if it were an image...

Friend: (laughs) Sorry to say, I think you have it too...

As usual, the first thing I did was to ask everyone whether they could see an apple.
