The COVID-19 Black Thursday Crash

Cause

The rapid global spread of COVID-19 led to unprecedented lockdowns and a sudden halt in economic activity, causing a massive dash for cash among investors.

Process

As equity markets crashed and circuit breakers triggered, crypto markets faced a cascade of liquidations on BitMEX and other derivatives exchanges, pushing Bitcoin below $4,000.

Result

Those who bought the dip and held saw massive returns as central banks stepped in with unprecedented quantitative easing, propelling Bitcoin to $69k by late 2021.

🚀 Time Traveler's Playbook (How to Exploit This)

• 🎯 Target Acquisition: Bitcoin (BTC) in the $3,800–$4,500 range, Ethereum (ETH) below $100, and major tech stocks (TSLA, AAPL).
• 🛠️ Core Operation: Prepare fiat on centralized exchanges before March 12. Set staggered limit buy orders all the way down to BTC $3,800. Do NOT use leverage, as wicks are violently unpredictable.
• 💰 Profit & Extraction: Hold assets through the 2020-2021 bull market. Begin scaling out in early 2021 when BTC crosses $50,000 and ETH crosses $3,000.
