A lot of protocols are ready to do a 'mean reversion' trade.
This means that they'll follow $BTC in its footsteps and have a relatively strong run. Stronger than Bitcoin percentage-wise, as the higher Bitcoin goes, the more confidence there is.
One of them is $SUI .
It's building up for a strong breakout after multiple months of accumulation and that could even mean that, in a prolonged period, it can run to $1.75.
ETF flows are back in the markets, and the markets are turning upwards for #Bitcoin .
Clearly above $80K since yesterday, and I assume we'll continue to see more strength coming in over the course of the next few weeks as there's a lot of ETF demand happening.
I've tweeted this earlier, however, the crash of #Bitcoin to $60K has been one of the strongest corrections in its existence.
Not on percentage dropped, but on the impact on all indicators.
In that light, it came relatively close to the 200-Week MA and that's where price of Bitcoin stalls quite often.
That means: we can easily run to $92-95K without any breakdown of the bear market trend, and we can easily start a bull market from here.
That's where the confusion will start.
Questions will pop up: Have we seen the bottom of the bear market? Should we buy?
Those will strengthen in the coming weeks.
However, overall, even if we go to $92-95K, it's quite normal to see a 20% correction from there and just a longer period of accumulation before markets break higher.
Simply use the DCA strategy and you'll be absolutely fine in coming years.
I don't think there's going to be a full-blown #Altcoin strength.
I think it's the actual opposite, where selective altcoins will heavily outperform, and the others will just perform the same as Bitcoin does (or worse).
That's why fundamental research + conviction in selective niches makes sense.
In that light, the AI <> #Crypto convergence is such a big no-brainer to go for.
$TAO , $NEAR , $REZ are all strong ones to focus on for potential runs in the coming period.
Similarly, anything related to compute is a strong aspect of the markets as there's not been a focus yet on decentralized compute.
Finally, every portfolio, I think, should consist of $HYPE as it's by far the strongest asset in the ecosystem and continues to perform.
The #Bitcoin 4-year cycle is something from the past.
We've seen an ATH prior to the halving.
Yes, Bitcoin has made a new ATH in Dollars, but how much value does that hold?
Did 2025 feel like it was a bull market year? Not at all, quite the opposite actually.
If you resonate it more like: Bitcoin has peaked in December '24 against Gold, and started a strong bear market year since then, then the arguments are lining up perfectly.
- Strong bear market year for #Altcoins - Strong bear market year for Bitcoin vs. Gold --> lots of irritation that Bitcoin wasn't moving along Gold.
This has also lowered the overall upside for the previous year, which then means that the downside can be less too.
In that light, it's very likely that we won't be seeing the similar patterns of the 4-year cycles anymore, especially not if there's a $100K breach this year already.
During 2024, the entire 'hard asset' market of these two combined was $17T. #Bitcoin had 15% market share.
Right now, the market has increased to $35T. #Bitcoin has just a 4% market share.
I do expect Gold to come down by 20-30%, which would lower the market cap, and some money is likely rotating towards the market cap of Bitcoin.
What if the entire market stalls at $35T and #Bitcoin goes back to being 15%?
That would put Bitcoin at $250K in the next cycle.
Not a weird thing to suspect.
On top of that, we're seeing that every time Gold peaks, volatility goes down, money flows out of the asset and rotates towards #Bitcoin as the big bull run after that happens.
The halving is not important anymore, and the bear market has already ended after 14 months of pain.
Likely we're having 1.5-2 years of bull market ahead of us.
If it clearly breaks 0.032 $BTC , that's where the party starts and when we can expect to have a lot of fun.
If it doesn't, then the next area is 0.026 $BTC and given that we're expecting Bitcoin to run to potentially even $93K, I can imagine that Ethereum needs to wait for its run to take place.
