WHO IS THE WINNER?

1) STEADY INVESTOR OR 2) ALTSEASON WAITER ?

👤 Person A: Steady Investor

• Regularly invests (e.g. daily/weekly/monthly) in top coins (e.g. BTC, ETH, etc.)

• Doesn’t time the market, just dollar-cost averages (DCA)

• May hold during bear markets, bull runs, and everything in between

• Long-term mindset

👤 Person B: Altseason Waiter

• Holds cash waiting for “altseason” (when small-cap altcoins pump massively)

• Tries to time entries into low-cap alts for quick big gains

• May skip BTC/ETH or only buys right before altseason

• Often influenced by hype, influencers, or cycle theory

📈 Real Example (2023–2025):

• Steady investors in BTC, ETH, SOL, etc. from 2022 bear market are sitting on 100–500% profits as of mid-2025.

• Altseason waiters mostly missed BTC run, waited too long, and often entered hyped altcoins near local tops (e.g. PEPE, WIF, AI coins). Many are still in -30% to -80% drawdown or stuck waiting for “their coin to recover

🧠 Conclusion:

• ✅ In Profit: Person A (Steady Investor)

• ❌ Often at Loss or Break-even: Person B (Altseason Hunter)

💡 Pro Tip:

Altseason is real — but it usually comes after BTC and ETH pump, not before. Steady investors who rotate part of their profits into alts before that phase are often the biggest winners
