At this point last cycle...
BTC hadn't made a new ATH yet.
SOL had recently released but was about to dump 80% between September and December. It would eventually recover doing a 260x from that low.
LUNA had just come out and was about to dump 70% over the next few months but would eventually become one of those rare 1000x cryptos... For a short while 😬
AXIE would not be out for another month or so but would go on to 1650x after release. But not right away... It would move sideways in Q4 and only pump in Q1 of 2021.
GALA just came out, it was about to tank 90% in Q4 before climbing 4650x 🤯
And these aren't even cherry picked examples. I'm just picking some of the biggest pumps of last cycle.
Most of them dumped hard before they pumped hard.
Every cycle in the history of financial markets, not just crypto, when you are in an extended pullback, it feels like the worst thing ever.
But the reality is the sh*t times are always pretty horrible.
The good times are always really good... If you survived the former.
