Learn to unlearn old, irrelevant patterns.
The most mid-curved investors I know in this space are the ones trying - mostly because they don’t know any better - to force this cycle into the mold of previous ones.
Sure, there’s always some relative overlap, mostly tied to macro cycles.
But why are so many of you still clinging to old narratives, trying to force classic patterns to repeat, instead of thinking one step ahead?
In every cycle, the biggest winners have been the ones who adapted, the ones who thought ahead before anyone else did, the ones who were bold enough to take risks while everyone else was in doubt.
There are only two kinds of people in this market: those who are one step ahead, and those who get left behind.
Which one you are - that’s up to you.

According to Fortune, major tech companies including Apple, X, Airbnb, and Google are in early discussions with crypto firms about integrating stablecoins, aiming to reduce transaction costs and improve cross-border payment efficiency. Some firms are also considering issuing their own stablecoins, though this path faces regulatory constraints.
Michael Saylor, the executive chairman of MicroStrategy (now Strategy), discloses that he is getting more bullish on his previous forecast that Bitcoin will hit $13 million by 2045.
The Strategy chairman expressed this view during a recent CNBC Squawk Box interview, where he provided a bullish outlook for Bitcoin. During the interview, Saylor recounted the previous prediction he laid out for BTC at the Bitcoin Conference in Nashville.
At the 2024 conference, Saylor predicted that Bitcoin would grow by 29% on average each year over the next 21 years. He suggested that factors such as Bitcoin education and rising institutional demand for the asset could propel BTC’s price to the $13 million target by 2045.
Bullish on $13M Bitcoin Price Forecast
While his previous forecast triggered mixed reactions at the time, Saylor has once again backed the prediction. The Bitcoin evangelist emphasized that he is more bullish on the prediction due to the positive market developments over the past six months.
Regulatory Clarity for BTC
He mentioned that the current U.S. administration now recognizes Bitcoin as a top digital commodity, providing regulatory clarity for the firstborn crypto.
Banks Now Allowed to Hold Bitcoin
Additionally, he noted that the banking regulator has authorized banks in the United States to hold Bitcoin. Recall that in April, the Federal Reserve withdrew 95% of its anti-crypto rules.
These include the 2022 and 2023 supervisory letters, which required banks to notify the central bank before engaging in crypto-related activities. With the rules rescinded, banks can now engage freely in crypto activities without informing the Fed.
Growing Institutional Adoption
Furthermore, Saylor indicated that there is strong institutional adoption for Bitcoin. According to him, more than 100 public companies currently hold Bitcoin on their balance sheets, with new firms adopting the asset every week..
