Many are fearing that the coronavirus and the global instability it has caused will lead to a huge economic recession. BeInCrypto has spoken with Michaël van de Poppe, an Amsterdam-based trader and well-respected analyst on Twitter (@CryptoMichNL), about commodities as safe-haven assets and the implications of the next Bitcoin halving.
BeInCrypto: On your Twitter Bio, you mention that you are a passionate poker player. You are certainly in good company, as many professional players have switched to trading lately. Where do you see the similarities between these two domains?
Michaël van de Poppe: I think they are both about portfolio and risk management, as well as probabilities. In poker, you need to do bankroll management in order to get a sustainable ROI. In crypto, it’s similar to our trading bankroll and we have to apply proper risk management.
The adrenaline kick is also the same. When you a big hand in poker, it feels similar to make a really cool trade. So there are actually many things that are similar in poker and trading.


The chart provides data on the valuation of silver compared to the equity markets, in this case, Nasdaq. It shows that it’s heavily undervalued, though in 2011 the chart shows an overvaluation where silver reached its all-time high. What the chart tells is me is that our equity markets are way overvalued. As such, I’m expecting a heavy economic downturn to come up, in which commodities will provide a safe-haven and start increasing in price.Shitcoin
