I think I’ve cracked the crypto cycle. It’s not four year cycles. It’s a Star Wars trilogy.
2024: A New Hope
Crypto bounces back post FTX. Survivors come out of the cracks. Builders come back. Funding gears up. A crypto president enters the horizon, with Warren Death Star destroyed. Hope returns. Meme szn.
2025: The Empire Strikes Back
Macro uncertainty hits. Rails are being built, but they need time. Genius Act passes, opens doors for institutions and stables. But it’s also crime szn. Retail gets burned by a million rugs. Vapor coins finally begin dying. 10/10 people get hurt. Leverage nuked. Most people capitulate. OG Bitcoin whales sell into the sunset.
2026: Return of the Jedi
Time and building start paying off. Crypto solidifies. Clarity Act -> more innovation. Real adoption shows up. Capital flows to quality. Alt season returns, but only for the strong.
