BREAKING NEWS 🚨 Deadline day for the SEC to appeal Grayscale’s court win to convert its trust into a Bitcoin ETF. If the SEC does not appeal, it will have to approve Grayscale's Bitcoin ETF bid if it can't find new reasons to delay or deny.
This time must be different, right? • #Bitcoin dominance rising • Alts getting smashed • Liquidity drying up • Retail has vanished • Good news has no impact on prices Well, actually, this is typical market behaviour at this stage in the cycle. A few thoughts.👇 We're in the most difficult market phase, where time capitulation really starts to set in. Sustained bleeding impacts investor confidence more than a swift decline. For that reason, most retail participants have opted out. They're either out of cash, or just completely apathetic towards the market. But historically, this has been the worst time to do so. We're entering a pivotal accumulation phase, where every dollar needs to be allocated wisely. How do you approach this? Firstly, accept that $BTC is likely to lead in the early stages of the bull run, as it has in the past. Many of next year's catalysts are BTC specific (halving, spot ETF) - and although there are clear flow on effects into other crypto sectors, it's not wise to fade BTC during this period. Thus, investing solely in alts (depending on your financial situation) probably isn't advisable. I prefer to employ a top-down approach to the market. Start with the pillars (BTC + $ETH), and work your way down the risk spectrum. Prioritise quality first. Now isn't the time to ape blindly into low-quality assets. You can get away with that during bull mania, you can't now. If you take one thing from this post, remember this: "When trying to make money, act slowly. When trying to preserve money, act quickly." Take a slow and steady approach to accumulation. Cash is still king during this phase. Many of next cycle's top performers likely aren't even released yet. And even if they do exist, the top narratives (although we have a rough idea), haven't fully cemented themselves. I'd rather miss an opportunity or two now, than exhaust liquidity too early and scramble when there's a clear play on the table. You need to know when to be aggressive, and when to observe caution. Remember, no position is still a position. So, whilst others are checking out - I'm laser-focused on building strong foundations for the coming years. The next 6 months will separate the sheep from the goats. You can either choose to succumb to the market, or persevere and reap the rewards on the other side.
Standard Chartered predicts that Bitcoin prices could reach $50,000 by the end of this year and $120,000 by the end of 2024. The price of Ethereum could rise from around null,600 currently to $8,000 by the end of 2026. As early as April this year, the bank issued a forecast that the so-called "cryptocurrency winter" was over.

To those people saying stuff like.. "Why does price suck atm?" "Where's the volume?" "Why is no one buying" "Wen news!?" "Wen better marketing?" "Wen pump!?" They can all be answered with one answer.. Bear market shit 👍 Price and volume sucks because everyone has left due to the depressive state of the market.. Only enthusiasts and opportunists are left and that is simply not enough to do any serious moves unless it's in low liquidity.. Mix in a dose of individual capitulations from people who are throwing in the towel.. this explains the slow bleeding Teams will not release big news in this market.. They will hold those cards close to their chests and look to unleash them to the public when the market is looking healthy and buyers return.. Any news released in such a depressing market will fall flat on its face, which explains the lack of punchy news that we see in a bull market This also ties into marketing.. With a lower token price and lack of revenues, teams need to tighten up their purse strings and allocating those funds to marketing is simply not prudent when there is very few people paying attention to the space.. They would rather get their heads down and build instead All this results in a lack of pump This is simply bear market behaviour.. And is something that needs to be endured if we are to maximise returns in the future There are plenty of opportunities in these markets.. But it will littered with pain and boredom "To endure something that is unendurable, is true endurance"
