Once it breaks that resistance and is off to the races / starts a challenge for 100k, there will be some serious FOMOing.0

There is a recent news where Palantir (PLTR) warns of a "black swan event". Those who do not know Palantir, Palantir is data analytics company using AI and used by many critical organisations such as US department of defence to predict the future occasions.
So what exactly is this black swan event and when will it happen?
No, wait, I forgot - if they knew what it was it wouldn't be a black swan.
Who needs to make money for old rope when people will pay you money to tell them that you think something bad will happen but you don't know when or what they should do about it?

It is called a prediction. Palantir is not a Crystal Ball. Noone will know exactly what is going to happen in the future. Also, I am not here to convince people whether "The black swan event" is going to happen it is up to individual to make their own judgement. I have not said whther I believe or not believe this incoming "Black Swan Event".Malthusian said:There is a recent news where Palantir (PLTR) warns of a "black swan event".

Just to prove I can give a balanced view, I don't actually rate Cardano. Years and years of "coming soon" and still no smart contracts. Massive community though so I have a decent bag anyway.adindas said:Zola. said:Just hit $50,000 again.Bad luck then for Crypto haters.

I like the anti-inflation argument for gold, crypto, art etc but also not convinced that if black swan comes and people start losing money in every single asset class, then they are not entirely going to start plowing into very risky magical internet beans. The Covid crashed pushed BTC down to $4k and ETH to $100. Now 12x that and 33x that of course. But if you get a true "de-coupling" from TradFi then it could happen at some point too.
Lets see, some nice pumps on the way, imo1 -
To be fair you didn't. You just said that gold number go up and crypto number go up because of the possibility that something unspecified might happen at an unspecified date.adindas said:

I have been very specific about the event in question on multiple occasions.
The event is the end of this financial system. And it could be as early as this autumn. But it's inevitable and it will be big.
And in answer to the other posts on asset classes going down: that won't be true of gold.0 -
Haha, you'll just have to trust me that I've not wasted 300 posts here pretending to be some random guy I found on the internet, as much as that sounds like a delightful way to spend my daysEco_Miser said:Scottex99 said:Lol again.
