two things i strongly believe right now:

1. the whole '4-year cycle' idea is dead

i think the odds are good that we make a new ATH on $BTC this year

but i'm extremely confident we’ll see several new ATHs on BTC and on high-conviction altcoins next year

2. memecoins are not dead

as usual, they’ll continue to have the most parabolic rallies of any altcoin

of course, thanks to the Trump admin and increasing regulatory clarity for crypto, utility tokens now stand a better chance than they’ve ever had, simply because the playing field is finally fairer for them

however, memecoins are not going anywhere

believe it or not, the simplicity of memecoins—and the fact that there is nothing underlying them, that they’re completely USELESS—is the entire allure for retail

you literally don’t have to explain anything: it’s just some useless dog/cat/frog/fart coin they find funny

yeh, a USELESS coin

and because of that, they don’t need to bother reading any whitepaper, documentation, learning any fancy code or buzzwords, or going through any other complications to understand the coin they're buying

and that’s exactly how retail wants it!
