#AltcoinSeasonLoading "Sell in May" – But this year, no one is leaving
Every year, like clockwork, financial folks whisper the ancient mantra: "Sell in May and go away." What’s the idea? Pulling out early, avoiding the summer slump, and coming back when things cool down. But this year? May has knocked on the door—and the market has opened like a rocket.
Bitcoin has soared past $100,000 as never seen before in May, ETH has broken into dance mode, and altcoins are breaking through resistance levels as if 2021 is happening all over again. Big players are launching ETFs, governments are courting cryptocurrency, and retail traders? They are asking each other: "Wait a minute... isn’t May not so bad?"
An old rule from before Twitter
"Sell in May" originated at the London Stock Exchange and was adopted by Wall Street. Back then, wealthy investors actually left the city for the summer—on horseback, not in Tesla cars. With thin liquidity and a sleepy market, selling in May made sense. It worked… until it didn’t.
