Bitcoin trading and the Musk effect
“It went up 420.69 percent due to inflation,” Musk said in a tweet late Sunday. Kidding aside, meme numbers like “420” and “69” can actually be an important part of an investment strategy, according to a Bloomberg article. Brent Donnelly, head of Spectra Markets, told Bloomberg, “Anyone who left a $69,501 BTC sell order this week probably doesn’t know what they’re doing. On the other hand, those selling at $68,998 are probably expert traders who understand markets, memes and crowd psychology.” Donnelly said this is because Bitcoin’s high and low prices are statistically most likely falling to numbers with a “00” or “50” in their last two digits. According to Bloomberg, there is even a slight trend towards “420” in the last three digits.
Musk, the head of Tesla and the richest person in the world, tweeted again last month, estimating Bitcoin at $69,000 and the second-largest cryptocurrency, Ethereum, at $ 4,200. The numbers have come to fruition ever since. Last week, Bitcoin hit an all-time high of around $69,000 before pulling back. Ethereum, on the other hand, recently surpassed $4,200 and traded around $4,700 on Monday. The growing prevalence of meme numbers isn’t limited to commerce. Sam Bankman-Fried, CEO of cryptocurrency exchange FTX, has raised $420 million in its latest funding round from exactly 69 investors.
