73 dollars lol. bought at 180 in 2021 and been holding the bag ever since. SELL signal 75% later is peak comedy
same, except my bag is from 190. a SELL at 73 after a 75 percent drawdown is closing the barn door from inside the house
my bag is from 165, solidarity. sell at 73 after riding it down 75 pct is just paying fees to close a position the market already closed for you
drawdown from 294 to 73 is not a dip its a structural break. the network works fine but nobody cares when the chart looks like this
^ validators are bleeding. margins collapsed with the price drop and a bunch are probably running at a loss now
structural break is right. 60.41 was the yearly low and one bad candle away from a retest. the network works, its the token economics that broke
75% drawdown from 294 and they still call it SELL. pain never ends for sol holders huh
RSI at 42.7 isnt even oversold territory yet. this could grind down to 55 before any bounce
Minjae O. agree. the technical analysis matters less than the economic security angle. validators bleeding means stake concentration risk goes up
8 bear factors vs 1 bull is harsh but validators running at a loss at 73 dollars is a bigger red flag than any RSI reading. stake concentration risk is the real story here
RSI 42.7 with ADX at 12.7 is the worst combo, weak trend but no reversal signal either. chop until one of those averages flips
75% drawdown from 294 and they still hit you with a SELL rating. SOL holders cant catch a break
analysts are always late to both ends. where was the SELL at 180 when validator margins started cracking, not 75% lower at 73
late_to_both facts. sol was 180 and every desk had 400 targets on the board. ratings chase price in both directions
8 bear factors vs 1 bull factor is brutal. only thing keeping this from being a short is the 50d still sloping up. barely
8 bear factors vs 1 bull factor is brutal but honest. validators running at a loss at 73 dollars is the real concern not the RSI
one bull factor, a rising 50d, and price already trades below it. the moment that line flattens this setup is fully cooked
below a rising 50d is textbook stage 3 chop. the second that average flattens this flips to stage 4 and the 60.41 low is in play fast
8 bear factors and the plan still says wait for confirmation. confirmation arrives at 55 after everyone is stopped out, it always does
10k on a stage 3 breakdown is academic. real question is whether validators stay solvent under 70 or the network starts eating its own issuance to pay them
even if validators hold under 70, solvency only survives via stake concentration. you trade token risk for liveness risk. worse deal imo
liveness risk vs token risk is the real fork and honestly liveness failure is the one that never recovers. 55 looks bad, 0 looks worse
liveness is the right fear but sol survived way worse operator panics. the token math is the ugly part, 75 pct off with issuance still printing every epoch
validators eating their own issuance to stay solvent is a slow motion bank run on the staking layer. nobody prices that risk
RSI 42.7 with ADX 12.7 means nobody is in control, not even the sellers. chop city until 60.41 breaks or holds
