Hear me out.

This is something I already partially covered in my BTC top macro thesis but I think should be a great reminder to help you stay level-grounded.

Spend some time to read it.

The ETF is now the predominant narrative which is causing TradFi demand and slowly attracting interest across the globe.

An epochal event that will have serious backlash when BTC breaks its past ATH: the loudness generated will be insane.

Millions of people will be overwhelmed by the idea that TradFi will continue to nourish the Bullrun given the low supply of the asset and the potential unlimited money that will continue to inflow.

It's easy to forecast the future echo chamber that will be created in such conditions:

โ€œ๐—œ๐˜'๐˜€ ๐—ถ๐—บ๐—ฝ๐—ผ๐˜€๐˜€๐—ถ๐—ฏ๐—น๐—ฒ ๐—ณ๐—ผ๐—ฟ ๐—•๐—ถ๐˜๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—ถ๐—ป ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—น๐—น๐—ฎ๐—ฝ๐˜€๐—ฒ ๐—ด๐—ถ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ป ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ถ๐—ป๐˜€๐˜๐—ถ๐˜๐˜‚๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฎ๐—น ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑโ€

Recognize the classic pattern?

Yes, the โ€œthis time is different oneโ€.

This will be one of the biggest traps.

Institutions and hedge funds, in fact, operate with a completely different size of retail investors.

Retail investors put the money they save from regular jobs, hoping for moonshots.

They NEED 50/100x minimum to consider an โ€œinvestmentโ€ successful (and even at that moment they will not sell).

TradFi money put gazillions into an asset, and when theyโ€™re up a 2/5x they look to secure those profits.

The โ€œmoonโ€ isn't necessary, they play in a different league so don't expect they will pump Bitcoin to 250K+, it's highly unlikely If not impossible this cycle.

Donโ€™t search for particular โ€œfundamental connotationsโ€ to justify the price increase, most will be end up like a byproduct of your imagination.

Stick to the charts independently and don't get sucked into magnificent prophecies.
