Some might call this move premature. Others might say I’m leaving money on the table. But after witnessing two full cycles, I’ve learned one thing: euphoria is the most dangerous phase.
🔍The Warning Signs Are Here
-ETH just broke $4,000 – A psychological milestone, but also a classic FOMO trigger.
- Altseason is in full swing – Low-cap coins are pumping, a sign of late-cycle frenzy.
- Retail is flooding in – New investors expecting "easy 10x" gains.
- Greed is extreme – Social media is flooded with "to the moon" hype.
- Macro & institutional hype is peaking – ETH ETF approvals, bullish narratives everywhere.
Sound familiar? It should. This is how every bull market ends.
📉 History Doesn’t Repeat, But It Rhymes
2017-2018 Cycle:
- BTC peaked in December 2017.
- ETH hit its blow-off top in January 2018.
- Then… -90% crash by mid-2018.
2021-2022 Cycle:
- ETH topped in November 2021.
- Bear market crept in quietly by Q1 2022.
- Those who held too long got wiped out -80% or more.
🧠 Why I’m Selling *Before the Top
1.Smart money exits early – They don’t sell at the peak; they sell into strength.
2.Bear markets start when optimism is highest – The crowd is always the last to realize.
3. Liquidity dries up fast – When the turn comes, it’s brutal and sudden.
My Plan:
✅ Lock in profits now – No one went broke taking gains.
✅ Hold stablecoins for the dip – Ready to buy back at lower prices.
✅ Watch for the final blow-off top – If ETH hits $6K+, I’ll consider trimming more.
🔮 My Prediction for 2025
- ETH could spike to $5.5K–$7K by Q4.
- Alts will go parabolic – Then collapse even harder.
- Bear market likely starts late 2025/early 2026 – Just like 2018 & 2022.
- Most will ignore the signs – Until their portfolios are down 50%+.
💡 Final Thought: This Isn’t FUD, It’s StrategyGreed kills more portfolios than fear. Taking profits isn’t bearish—it’s how you survive cycles.
If you’re still all-in, ask yourself:
❓ Do I have an exit plan?
❓ Am I prepared for a -70% drop?
❓ Will I regret not selling when I had the chance?
Don’t be exit liquidity. Be the one who profits. 🏆
