Humble Bitcoiners!

It is Monday, and here we are again with your daily dose of Bitcoin signal!

It has been a record-breaking week, 10 days of continuous appreciation for Bitcoin. The market is euphoric, it seems people have short memories and have already forgotten the weeks of the continuous downtrend.

The truth is that the news has been and is showing a very optimistic future for bitcoin, both short and long term. Just remember that this is a marathon, and it is never a good idea to make moves based on emotions.

The best strategy? Well, no one has ever gotten hurt by dollar-cost averaging into Bitcoin.

Now get your coffee ready, stack some sats, and let's get all the latest news in the bitcoin space.

BITCOIN'S PRICE CORRECTION

What Caused This Mid-Cycle Bitcoin Price Correction
By Alex Mcshane 

Factors ranging from regulation in China to the Taproot protocol upgrade were driving bitcoin price charts to a decisive point for weeks.

After the sudden appreciation at the beginning of the year to highs of $60,000 per bitcoin, corrections were expected and are normal in bitcoin's price history, but some factors could definitely aid or serve as a signal of how big and sudden these corrections can be. McShane details the reason for the last correction in three main topics:

  • China Ban
  • Taproot Upgrade
  • Grayscale Trust's Record Unlocks
These reasons could have played a big impact on the market sentiment, and the price. Read the detailed explanation in the article.

MINERS RELOCATE

Bitcoin Miners Consider Relocating To Paraguay In Wake Of China Ban
By Alex Mcshane

As many as eight China-based Bitcoin mining firms are said to be looking to relocate operations to Paraguay, home to abundant hydroelectric energy.

Mining bitcoin is a fight for cheap energy. To be able to compete globally, bitcoin miners have to look out for reliable energy sources with the lowest price possible to maximize profit. Interestingly enough, these accessible energies are often found in renewables, and apparently, Paraguay has abundant hydroelectric energy which satisfies 100% of the country's needs and is even sold to neighboring countries.

After the China mining ban, estimates suggest that as many as 500,000 machines could eventually be installed in the country over the following years.

HIGHER STAKES

Robo-Advisor Wealthfront Adds Bitcoin Exposure Offering
By Namcios

Robo-advisor giant Wealthfront will now let its 400,000 clients invest up to 10% of their portfolios in bitcoin through GBTC.

Wealthfront, a hedge fund offering financial services to 400,000 clients, will begin to allow exposure to bitcoin through the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC). They will let clients have a maximum exposure limit of 10% as they consider the asset to be riskier and more volatile than most ETFs.

This could lead to a great opportunity for Wealthfront clients to dip their toes and get educated on Bitcoin. As many bitcoiners can relate, education helps conviction and leads to higher allocation.

MEME OF THE DAY

By Bitcoin Magazine

The amount of bitcoins we have, is never enough. As we take a deep dive into the educational resources and begin to understand and appreciate the potential of bitcoin as an asset, digital real estate and sound money, we KNOW, we don't have enough.
