 It's quite possible we don't have cycles anymore after this, or they are so muted they don't appear to be cycles  
 Supercycle is going to be such a vibe in 2025 the 90 percent pullback will hurt so much more  
 I dunno if countries and institutions will be as fickle and dump the same way retail holders do 
 Only one way to find out! 
 They will when there are liquidity crunches and other stocks fall. 
 I don't think so either because HODLing = market cap go up. The incentives are different for institutions. 
 Uponly could end up being real 
 We should stop calling them Bitcoin cycles. Call them epochs.

We're in epoch 5

Epoch 4 had a pathetic bull & a prolonged bear.

Epoch 5 will be the opposite of epoch 4. 
 The current cycle @note13q7v5ua7g9er8jdvvxdzzj5mzgtlzm8760ldula9rjzdqaagdwlswwpntc 
 🤣 
 I’m torn. The cycles have been repeating with freakish accuracy up until this point. But Bitcoin absolutely seems to be at the precipice of a true s-curve moment where adoption hits a real inflection point. And if that happens it’s hard to imagine it not savagely breaking the cycle patterns (to the upside). I’m just glad I’ve been stacking and I’ll continue to do so. Bring on the show… 
 You ever want to feel early, go on Instagram and other places other than X, and find the comments on a Bitcoin, crypto, federal reserve, economics, etc.. type post.  Like 95% of comments have no clue, or don't like it, or think it's still tulips, and so on. 
 There will be deep pockets waiting for coins that get sold off thinking the next bear is a predictable event. 
 Until things are priced in sats, there will be major swings.  People still see and will for a while, gains and losses.

The dollar fluctuates against other currencies, gold, etc...daily.

But nobody other than forex traders looks at it like oh man, I just just made XX or I just lost XX, I better exchange to yen. Lol. 
 Going to take a much bigger market cap than this. Much bigger.

 I agree. This could be the last well defined cycle. 
 Been thinking similarly. Bear market may not look familiar. 
 Easy to say at the start of the bull phase of a new cycle  
 But I have no idea what will happen to supply issuance in next halvening nor do I have any clue as to what it will be in the halvening after that one. And dont all these future halvenings still half a material impact to overall circulating supply?? 🤣
