I saw some conspiracy theories involving Musk and Coinbase the other day.
Are they not so crazy?

Lol there won’t be a cypto bear for years - there is to much new Implementation - the past cycles mean nothing - we are in a super cycle with zero end for a long long time. I’m having boomers ask how to get in daily. This is just getting started

These altcoin valuations will 100% be going much lower than where they are now. This week, month, or year.

Retail interest is still sky high
Institutional interest in Bitcoin likely hit a snag that it’ll take some time to emerge from.

Rocket (or anyone I guess)-
you posted a chart on april 24th that showed the price of btc in each 4 year cycle and it looked really consistent. Doing the math from the '13 and '17 cycles (and using '21 as a guide so far) it looks like we would continue a big run until late fall or early winter then see a dip in december/january.
Also I remember you saying the other day about "alt season" which I am/was unfamiliar with but sounded like a time when btc would stagnate and other smaller coins would pump. I also understand that this generally happens/happened in winter.
My ultimate question is 2 fold: is it common that for whatever reason bitcoin generally sees a bear run around december/january? And also if that is the general trend annually, why does everyone not just sell off a shite ton of bitcoin in the fall as it's rising hard then buy it back in december/january?

This time it’s different? I really hope you are right but the speculative froth in the altcoin market has already surpassed 2017 and I know most of these are headed for 90+% corrections but hoping it’s still a ways off as well. I do think we will never see a crypto winter as brutal as this last one again.

It’s a 3.5 year cycle.
It’s looking like this one is ending early but depending on model, it was pretty close.
Halvening model had the btc peak at 100kish but raw ratios had the peak around 55-65k (apprx 20x cycle low of 3k).
Using the same ratio method and an 80% btc pull back, you’re looking at a low of 13-20k sometime over the next year and a half for btc.

So what you're saying is dump money in BTC in that price range and patiently wait for the next bull run and cash out?

this image is basically where everyone is trying to time the top, so mid/late september
keep in mind that this is only the 3rd cycle, so we have only had two previous cycle data points which means no one really knows what will happen
the trend at the top of the previous two cycles was to sell alts into bitcoin but with the stable coins and other yield options, im not sure if that will happen this time around

That’s what I’m doing. Everyone should do what you feel comfortable with.
The rule of thumb I live by in crypto is if your investment isn’t going to 5-10x soon, it should be elsewhere cause that’s where the risk starts to outweigh the benefit.
The absolute most you would see from btc this cycle from its current spot is 2x- that’s a no from me.
I personally don’t believe eth will break 5k this cycle- that’s a no from me.
There are some alt coins that can still 5-10x but they probably aren’t going to be ones in the top 20 or even 50 market cap right now.
Just how I operate. Others risk tolerance is higher and therefore could make more...or lose more.

So looking at that chart, would it be wise to sell some btc around fall (not a specific date of course, just somewhere around Sept/Oct) and wait for an expected dip around December/January?
