we’re currently at yearly lows for crypto
this time next year we’ll be at all time highs
remember who’s still here when it’s green again
I’m calling it now
Anything you aren’t playing the long game in, is a waste of time. The saying If it ain’t worth 10 years it ain’t worth 10 minutes is true, thats how you have to see everything. Anything worth having is worth building and compounding the benefits over a long period of time… Relationships, businesses, partnerships, health, communities, portfolios.. you name it. If it ain’t worth 10 years it ain’t worth 10 minutes

If you wanted a long term position close your eyes and Buy right now. Stash it away in cold storage.
Same advice still holds 10x later.
“We weren’t taught financial literacy”
You weren’t taught how to use social media, sex, travel, shopping or video games either but somehow you figured it out
🚨 SUMMARY: The UK's social media ban for children from early 2027:
- "User-to-user" apps where people create, share and interact with content (e.g. TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat, YouTube, X, Facebook) will be banned for under-16s
- WhatsApp, Signal and YouTube Kids will be exempt
- Under-16s will also be banned from livestreaming, messaging strangers on gaming apps like Discord and using disappearing messages
- 16 and 17 year olds will face nightly social media curfews and limits on infinite scrolling with more details next month
- AI "romantic companion" chatbots will be banned for under-18s
- Adults can still access social media through age checks like facial recognition, digital IDs, passports and credit cards
Patience is one of the rarest advantages in Bitcoin.
Everyone says they want life-changing wealth,
but most people can’t emotionally endure six months of boredom, a 40% drawdown, or a full year of sideways price action...
Bitcoin is doing it again.
Not the fun part yet. The part where it gets everyone doubting the whole thing before the next cycle can really begin.
People forget how this asset works. It does not just go up because “halving.” That is the kindergarten version. The real engine is fixed supply meeting human emotion. There will only ever be 21 million coins, so when demand wakes up and real holders stop selling, price has to climb until it finds enough coins willing to move.
That is how you get the insane runs. The 1k to 20k move. The 3k to 69k move. The 15k to 126k move.
But then comes the part nobody likes.
Bitcoin has to digest what it just ate.
If an asset runs 8x, the market does not just calmly reset in three weeks and move on. It has to work through late buyers, leverage, weak hands, tourists, ETF flows, and everyone who bought the top calling themselves a long-term investor until the candles turned red.
That is where the downside gets ugly. The person who bought too early in the downtrend eventually becomes a seller lower. The trader who thought he was buying the low finds out he was just catching another bounce. The leveraged long does not get to be patient. He gets liquidated. Perps and synthetic exposure make the whole thing worse because they create extra demand on the way up and forced selling on the way down.
This is how Bitcoin gets those elevator-down phases.
Not because it died. Because ownership is being cleaned up.
Coins move from people who liked the price action to people who actually want the asset.
That process feels terrible while it is happening, which is exactly why it works. Doubt comes back. The timeline gets dark. People say AI replaced it. Stocks are better. Bitcoin had its moment. The whole thing is over.
And somehow they say this while Bitcoin is still trading above the last cycle’s blow-off double top.
Think about how crazy that is.
The 2021 top near 69k was viewed as this insane parabolic event after a 20x plus move from the prior cycle low. Now, after 7+ months of crypto winter, Bitcoin is still hanging around that old “impossible” zone, and people are acting like the asset failed.
That is not failure. That is a much higher floor trying to form.
Maybe the final floor is already in. Maybe it is not. Nobody knows. The only way to stay sane is station to station. If you think it is going lower, fine. Mark the next real support. Mark the level above that proves your read is wrong. Then update when price gives you new information.
Do not do what the eternal bears do.
Do not pick some dramatic number like 15k, 3k, or zero and then build your whole personality around it. That is how people blind themselves. They stop doing analysis and start defending a prophecy.
Being wrong is not the problem. Everyone is wrong. The problem is refusing to say, “I was wrong,” when the market has clearly moved on.
That is why Bitcoin is such a funny asset. Most bears do not say it is expensive. They do not say it needs a normal correction. They say it is going to zero.
They said it at $7. They said it at $70. They said it at $700. They said it at $7,000. Now they say it when one coin is worth more than most people make in a year.
That is the magic.
Bitcoin creates doubt, then feeds on the people who get trapped inside it.
It runs. It digests. It makes everyone question the whole thing. Then when the floor is finally found, the same people who were waiting for zero are shocked when it starts moving again.
The supply is still fixed. The emotions still swing too far. The believers still absorb the panic. The doubters still give it fuel.
Everyone is falling for it again.
When you realise the liquidation event was the mid-cycle leverage flush and the drop to 60K was the mid-cycle spot capitulation flush and the deeper bleed on alts was their bear market bottom flush and it all happened whilst BTC was still up +300% from the cycle lows which aligned with the mid-cycle correction point because the whales made all the money from BTC the first half of the cycle and took their profits and nuked the market so alts die harder and the several-year alt holders finally cave in and sell to give the whales sufficient liquidity so they can buy the alts off them for dirt cheap with their BTC, Oil and stock market profits before they approve the clarity act and the mid-cycle correction turns into the usual cycle continuation where whale and institutional interest shifts to altcoins after forcing all hands out which breaks them out of a bear market so they can finally have their long overdue bull runs which will bring them up to parity with BTC for the final phase of the rally where everyone who capitulated will remain in denial and re-enter once they near the top and give the institutions the exit liquidity to dump everything and make even more money and then the really horrible narratives begin which takes us into an actual bear market dot com boom n bust style the worst we’ve ever seen and everyone who capitulated is left holding the bag at the top of the digital/AI/tech bubble as everything bleeds over a long duration of time and the real regulatory framework starts to come into play and the surviving coins fall down to just a handful as utility becomes a true measurement of valuations and then they change their mind about CBDC’s and implement them and then everything becomes tokenised and the new cycle eventually begins as the world begins to shift into a new era of digitalisation.
Train yourselves to see systems. Systems produce the same results consistently. Capitalism will always have the same economic results no matter who you elect.
The 2-4 hours you spend scrolling each day (or 730-1460 hours each year) is more than enough time to write a book, build a business, or get in shape. In the moment, it seems like nothing. That's why it's so dangerous. Your time disappears without you being conscious of it.
