You could know the market was going to go silly with stocks like Yahoo in the late 90s. But you also had to pick the right time to dump everything.


You could have also “known” that bitcoin was a massive bubble and going to zero back when that was a popular sentiment.

It’s not just timing the bubble that is tricky. Sometimes the “obvious” bubble never ends up popping.


Markets can stay irrational longer can you can stay solvent and all that. But you could have done pretty well with bitcoin if you got in early so long as you didn't jump out too early (or get scammed).
