Would be great to get cheap BTC again. I am seeing people already starting to capitulate. The crypto bros pushing AI content. Now the most boring phase of the bear has started, don't go all in, be patient and keep stacking.
No closes yet, but it seems very likely that Bitcoin locks in a break below the First Low Bear Band, triggering a move to the Second Low Band at 44.5k.
The cycle bottom target here is on the lower end of my projections at 28.5k.
I am being very patient for the right cycle low conditions, I am not afraid of "missing out".
Especially as returns diminish and the possibility of a lackluster cycle (which most people find impossible) looms, it is more important than ever to wait for the best time to invest.
I think plenty of people will "call" the cycle bottom this go around, because if you do it at every low, eventually you'll be right. Was buying altcoins at their cycle bottom impressive last cycle? For most... not at all. The big "kicker" will be if Bitcoin only reaches... or doesn't reach, ATHs next cycle.
It's the invincible twist, because almost no crypto influencer has a plan for a complete cycle flop.
"So what will you do then, CryptoCon?"
At this point, I am very uninterested in buying Altcoins in the upcoming cycle. I think they are being challenged as a viable sector, like NFTs.
I do think Bitcoin still has potential. Even a run from low prices to near previous ATHs is a good return.
I also believe this would be temporary. And once the losers have been obliterated, a select few crypto will rise to maturity to continue more modest growth.
Diversifying seems smart. Stocks, Index Funds, and ETFs have become more interesting. I'm still waiting for good buying opportunities there too, before I allocate.
According to the Quartercent Cycles Theory, a major pause/recession is not projected until 2034, making it a great candidate for diversification.

I built a SKILL.md for code reviews. It knows our internal standards, naming conventions, and anti-patterns. Every PR now gets reviewed in 30 seconds. That used to take 45 minutes of a senior dev's time. Steal it below 👇
@dwnews Again stupid moves’ by Germany! The world is becoming more entrepreneurial and with a lot of work outsourced to AI they don’t need so many skilled workers. Skilled workers in Germany are finding it difficult to find jobs so what is the point of taking in more people?
It’s fascinating watching the same people who lost everything by staying permabull on crypto memes suddenly trying to be “vibe coders”.
You aren't a "crypto or claude expert" You're just chasing the next shiny thing because the liquidity dried up.
Europe is leading the way into the AI Age
Pleased to announce this brand new, state-of-the-art, 330 square meter data center in the heart of Gelsenkiärken, Germany
The facility will process 20 gigabytes of AI data per day
Construction will begin in May 2037, pending regulatory approval and a full environmental impact study
Once this place opens for business in December 2041, Europe will officially become the AI Superpower!
Privacy is the precondition for many of our freedoms. It’s the point at which government and corporate reach end and our individual freedoms and self-sovereignty begin. As our lives have moved online, privacy’s become a rare, vanishing commodity.
That’s why we founded Cypherpunk (@cypherpunktech) — a company dedicated to privacy and self-sovereignty. We will execute on our mission by accumulating, building, and supporting privacy-protecting assets and technologies at a time when the world needs them more than ever.
To that end, Cypherpunk — Ticker: $LPTX (today), $CYPH (tomorrow) — was launched with a $50 million+ investment from @winklevosscap to begin accumulating Zcash ($ZEC) at what we believe to be a significant discount to Zcash’s true long-term value. Cypherpunk currently holds 203,775 ZEC purchased at an average price of ~$245 per coin, representing ~1.25% of the current ZEC supply. We plan to continue accumulating ZEC rapidly so that Cypherpunk owns at least 5% of the total ZEC supply.
Since Zcash’s launch 9 years ago, we’ve observed its highly symbiotic relationship with bitcoin. Zcash is a fork of Bitcoin and shares identical tokenomics — both have a fixed total supply of 21 million coins. If bitcoin is digital gold, Zcash is encrypted bitcoin, or digital cash. One is your store of value, the other is how you privately move your value. We’ve been tracking this symbiosis for years and believe that now — as we enter the age of AI — is the right time to begin accumulating ZEC.
We feel strongly that Zcash could become a meaningful percentage of Bitcoin’s market capitalization — just on the merits of it being a privacy hedge or insurance policy to Bitcoin’s transparency alone. We believe bitcoin will continue to ascend to $1,000,000 per coin over the next 5-10 years. We also believe Zcash will appreciate significantly from here as well. These coins go hand in hand.
Over the next few weeks, we’ll continue to lay out our thesis. In the meantime, we’re excited to have you join us as we stack zats and invest in other technologies that promote privacy and self-sovereignty. Let us proceed together apace.
Onward.
Staring at this and the ZECBTC chart.
We are at least heading to 10k this cycle.
One Zcash was equal to 12 BTC when it had launched.
If ZCash is bitcoin but better, which addresses the privacy gap that bitcoin could not solve. 10k is minimum this cycle.
Buy as much <1000
lot of tailwinds for $ZEC
• crypto early adopters disinterested in tradfi commodification of $BTC as an asset while also being up 10,000X+
• one of core tenets of crypto is self custodied unseizable money
• if we get a bearish crypto admin necessity of privacy for digital assets becomes much more important
• Zcash is one of only coins in which the network becomes stronger as price appreciates due to $$$ size of shielded pools increasing
