Bull markets typically last 6 months to 1 year, while bear markets usually last 1 to 2 years, and a complete cycle of bull and bear markets is about 3 to 4 years long.
Seizing every bull market to earn at least 50% or more returns is enough to surpass most traditional investments, stocks, and funds. Because this 50%+ return is almost guaranteed and beyond doubt.
1. Only Invest During Bear Markets
The most important thing is to be patient and try to start investing at the bottom of a bear market (although it is very difficult to accurately buy at the true bottom). A simple standard for judging the bottom of a bear market is: the market loses interest in Bitcoin, the atmosphere in the crypto space is quiet, and the market is in a period of silence. This stage may last for 1 year or even longer, allowing for multiple buying opportunities.
2. Mainstream Coins
BTC and ETH will always be the leaders in the crypto space, buying during a bear market is definitely a good decision. Although they may not show exponential growth, buying and holding them until the bull market can yield at least a 50% increase. For large investors, this is the preferred choice.
In addition to mainstream coins, consider exchange platform coins (like BNB), strong foundational chains (like SOL, AVAX), excellent infrastructure coins (like MATIC), and coins with strong consensus (like DOGE, SHIB, RATS, PEPE).
Heavy Position Strategy
Heavy operations should focus on mainstream coins and absolutely avoid heavy positions in altcoins. The essence of altcoins is to "cut leeks," with a large number of altcoins emerging in every bull market. These altcoins that soared in one bull market may fall silent in the next bull market or even be replaced by new altcoins.
Without insider information and channels, it is almost impossible to accurately engage before an altcoin explodes. Many times we see an altcoin surge and only then realize that such a coin exists, and by that time, it is often too late to follow in. Even if luck is on our side, there may be another surge, but in most cases, it results in oscillating declines.
The volatility of altcoins is too great, and ordinary investors often find it difficult to bear; whether it rises or falls, it is hard to hold. Generally, investors may make a little money, but they can also easily incur substantial losses. Ultimately, when all is said and done, it often results in a loss.
