Why do I think the cycle is over or near over?
First, I am retarded and I like to make things simpler for me so I look for the data we have available and don't brainwash myself with the "this time is different" BS.
Compare each cycle top to the one before, and they are equivalent to 1461 days from top to top?
Those are 16 three-month candles.
This quarter historically should be the final bullish quarter and should be the end of the bull-cycle.
Realize some gains or cry later.
NFA am just an ape.
Unfortunately, as someone who has spent years moving funds across different chains, I made a mistake I never thought I would: trusting a CEX.
My experience with MEXC was flawless until it suddenly wasn't.
I've used the exchange for years without a single issue. My deposits and withdrawals were completely normal, with nothing suspicious or unusual. It was fast, convenient, and made it easy to move assets between chains without relying on questionable bridges or connecting my wallet to unknown protocols.
Then, when I tried to withdraw some USDT, my funds were frozen and I was told I needed to complete KYC and provide additional documents. Anyone familiar with crypto knows why that immediately raises concerns.
After years of using the platform without problems, having access to my own funds restricted without warning was the last thing I expected.
Dealing with that situation made me think about how this problem could actually be solved. Ironically, that experience became one of the reasons I built @ComPairSwap , which, funnily enough, utilizes @splitnow 's infrastructure in a part of it's operation (wallet splitting). The goal was simple: make moving assets across chains easier while reducing reliance on centralized intermediaries that can suddenly become a point of failure. 1400$ USDT is not a lot of money but i don't think there was a valid reason to freeze it
Most privacy exchanges have a dirty secret:
When your funds get frozen, they often profit.
We're done watching users get robbed.
Today we're launching a $5,000 AML Relief Fund.
If you've had funds frozen by another privacy swap service and never got them back, post proof. We'll review submissions and may refund the full amount lost, up to $5,000 total.
At SplitNOW, frozen funds are never revenue. We guarantee 100% refunds within 24 hours or double your money back

As much as am happy printing on $ETH i remain highly skeptical of the market because at this moment it is looking like an exact copy of the previous bear market.
Double top 2 with a range in between them.
Bear flag that leads towards the previous cycle's ATH, followed by a bounce off that ATH and 1 final crazy crash to take people out.
What could trigger that?
1- DeFi current state, AAVE and those protocols.
2- WLFI?
3- Geopolitical news?
All this is highly speculative but the similarities are scary, but check the chart and lmk what you think.

Crypto made me a lot of money
and it ruined my life.
I've been in crypto since 2019.
I saw the beginning of the memecoin cycle.
I entered early. And made a lot of money.
Not (( nice profits )).
Money that changes lives.
I never took profits.
Never.
I watched years of salary disappear in just few minutes.
More than once. And i still stayed.
Little by little, i isolated myself.
I stopped seeing my friends.
I stopped answering my family.
I was locked in my room, glued to charts, completely disconnected from real life.
Crypto didn't just change my relationship with money.
It changed how i think.
How i feel.
How i see everything.
Emotionally and mentally, I became someone else. And for a long time, I hit rock bottom.
Im not here to say I (( made it )).
I'm still rebuilding.
Today, I do things differently.
Cashflow outside crypto.
Discipline.
Health.
Family.
Crypto is a brutal world.
Without discipline, it destroys you.
But if you survive long enough,
and stop sabotaging yourself,
your time eventually comes.
If this tweet speaks to you,
it's not by accident.
