But what’s coming will make or break you. No in-between.
First of all, you must fully realize that the next nine months or so will be the MOST important months of your life.
You either do it now, or you never will.
The market is entering the most rapid stage of the bull phase.
Above all else, clarity is paramount:
In this cycle, your core capital should only be invested in the most powerful narratives.
Memecoins, AI, RWA
Now let's get started.
There has been a significant influx of money into the market over the past week.
With the entry of normies, many platforms have reported a huge surge in fiat deposits.
Many are discussing that when Coinbase app reaches the top 1, it will signify the peak of the cycle.
However, this is a super cycle for memes, and Coinbase doesn’t provide access to the full range of memes.
So, one indication of this cycle ATH will be Phantom Wallet App rank
Currently, Phantom Wallet ranks among the top 150 apps in the USA App Store.
Retail will turn to Solana to engage with memes, so keep that in mind.
Thinking in this cycle is a mistake.
Midcurving was lost back in April of this year. The less you think, the fewer mistakes you will make.
Print out this tweet, place it on your desktop, and look at it when you realize you're thinking too much.
So, until $SOL reaches $400 - $500, it's not worth worrying seriously about it.
To anticipate when this might happen, it's essential to establish a time frame, and we will do that now.
Based on our calculations the price of 350-450 per SOL could potentially be the all-time high of this cycle In this range it seems logical to reduce our positions in altcoins If SOL will be one of the first to reach its peak but other altcoins should follow quickly thereafter
Historically, high caps reach a new ATH as soon as BTC stabilizes after its jump.
This pattern has repeated itself many times across both cycles and sub-cycles.
It seems like everything is ready for the altseason, but...
WEN ALTSEASON?
● Option 1
Real altseason, is unlikely to happen until the Federal Reserve indicates an end to quantitative tightening.
Since the middle of 2022, the Fed's balance sheet reduction has negatively impacted altcoins.
Think they might announce the conclusion of QT at the upcoming FOMC meeting in December, possibly ushering in the start of altseason.
● Option 2
After the inauguration of President Donald Trump.
There might be large-scale announcements about crypto.
These announcements could boost confidence, making people more willing to invest in crypto.
Which will just automatically trigger the pumping of alts.
Wtf? Bears argue we've hit the market's peak.
They assert that the high open interest and positive funding rate indicate a market propelled by leverage, a scenario typically associated with the end of a bull run phase.
However, their assessment seems flawed, and here's why:
- Bitcoin ETFs have accumulated 40,000 BTC - equivalent to three months' supply — in merely four days.
- Additionally, during the $80K surge, Bitcoin's funding rate was at its lowest point in quite a while.
I won't delve deeply into the tech aspect of the market in this thread, as doing so would violate the "thinking in this cycle is a mistake" rule.
So based on the facts above, just remember:
➜ Phantom is currently far from the top in the app store
➜ $SOL remains far below $400+
➜ High caps have not shown growth
➜ $BTC is still interesting
As long as these factors are respected, we are safe.
However, there's very little time left before the massive altseason begins, and many people don't even realize how to act on it.
Let's break down of what it takes to "make it" in crypto this cycle ⇩
● Focus on the winners, not the losers.
Choose only strong narratives and tokens you genuinely believe in, not just because "DegenTrader534" predicted their growth.
Clearly craft a thesis, and if it satisfies you — buy.
● Whether you're a degen, trader, or investor, most people in crypto get rich through the same means:
- Holding tokens that grow in price over time.
Exit with DCA. Take profits as the price rises. Don't worry about selling at the top; you likely won't manage that anyway.
● Rotate and diversify with a minimum.
Keep your hands still and resist the urge to pursue every narrative; it's impossible to grasp them all, so be at peace when something pump without you.
➜ And forget all the old cash flow rules. This is how money will flow in this cycle:
● Set realistic goals and avoid locking your tokens.
Planning to stake tokens with 50% APY with a lock-up and expecting 50% more profit as the market rises?
Lock-up period can play a cruel trick.
Nothing is worse than having your locked tokens when the bull market ends.
● When you planning to exit the market, resist holding tokens that haven't pumped yet. Forget them; they might never do so.
And cash out regularly. A bull market is when money is made, but a bear market can take it away, even in stablecoins.
In the past two years, the market has changed significantly.
Everyone has noticed it. All in the market are happening at an extremely fast.
The market now requires much more money to get pumped up.
So, don't expect printing for the next two years; lower your expectations.
And remember the main thing:
In any bullish phase, sharp flash crashes can occur — it's essential for the market to shed excess participants.
However, flash crashes are the ideal time to buy alts if you haven't already. Don't panic; act.
