The counter argument is that Crypto never made sense in the first place but people still bought into it and will continue to do so and with that said, new ATH's will continue to be reached. There were many skeptics like you in the early days of BTC and look at where it is today.
Honestly, don't. But if you really really want to jump in.. rule no.1 always take profit. Crypto don't wait for you at the ATH or a pump. Once you earn some, exit.
There are many non-profitable altcoin projects, in fact probably 99% are not profitable, these will fail. Most of the initail projects never got into profit mode and thus they had a weaker pump in the next altcoin season and then they die, they have had many years to get into profit and failed, so one can expect failure of all such project. Currently several tokens are above their 200 MA - Near, Fet, Tron, Ton, GT, MX and a few others. Exchange tokens have been profitable, the exchanges make billions. Ethereum which has such a large marketcap is a complete failure with too high fees and people rather using Sol, Tron, Polygon etc. Now all the layer 2 s might work trhough too, but not profitiability of most exchanges. So don't expect any token to just hit new ATHs. But there will be switch to altcoin season, eventually Sol, Tron, BNB, Ton etc marketcaps will get (at least combined) more than Ethereum and will slip the altcoin space into dominance and then even dead projects will pump for a while. The fact that some major alts are pumping now is already making Btc.D struggle now. Also at a certain point the tokens become too cheap for projects that actually make a profit, that's when market forces come back in and the chart violently reverses. So no, there will definitely be another altcoinseason, but your specific tokens might never see a new ATH.
This is the typical and expected retail move. Sell the bottom or (near bottom say 10-30% more is possible) To buy ATH to chase green candles!  The only saving grace is at least it is most likely very little money like under 10-20k so it doesn't matter anyway.
Obviously his BuyIns were way off ATH

Let's use the current market cap for example. The ATH for the total market cap in crypto is 4.2T At the previous ATH of 3.7T, it went down not long after, people were taking profits. So if there is another bull run coming, look at that figure, look at that graph. I would start to take profit until it goes pass 4.2T. Don't have to fully exit your position, just take step by step. 20% at 4.2T, if it goes higher, 4.5T, take more. Start to exit most of your positions once it is near 4.8T if it even hits. Never ever think this way "I could have earned more if I sold all at xx price", any profit no matter how small, makes you a winner.
The market topped on apathy not euphoria, in the parlance of Cryptoverse. Basically quantitative tightening was still in effect, with high interest rates. Historically, without QE alts don't get an alt season. I expect we'll see a huge alt run after BTC finds a new ATH when the bull market lines up with QE.

Yea I sold all of my ETH recently, its literally down 12% for 5 years. Maybe itll hit ATH maybe not, all I know is I'm not waiting another 5 years to find out. There are much better other investment opportunities out there
First, there aren’t enough cyclists to be the reason why the price dumps, unless the mega whales are also cyclists. Which would mean this is a self-fulfilling prophecy and you’re betting on the wrong side either way Second, the price before the halving isn’t what determines the cycles. The cycle works on a time basis, where the tops, bottoms, and major price movements consistently happen around the same timeframes after the halving starts. And once again, this cycle followed almost the exact same timing as every other cycle Also, the ATH happened barely 2 weeks before the halving, which can easily be explained by the sudden inflow of money from countries, ETFs, MSTR, and all the other bullish adoption news. It wasn’t far off anyway, and it’s mostly irrelevant because the overall price action is still basically copy-paste when you compare the timelines. Every cycle, people say “this time is different” because of some supposedly unique factor, and every time they end up being wrong. This cycle will probably be no different, especially with an even weaker argument Look at the cycle low multiple chart and you’ll see the only real difference is diminishing returns and smaller price swings, which makes sense because of the growing market cap, but they still happen around the exact same timeframes. Yet somehow people still compare cycles on a yearly basis like normal stocks instead of comparing the days since the start of halvings. And those timelines naturally shift slightly forward each cycle because mining difficulty doesn’t adjust fast enough for block production times to consistently stay at exactly 10 minutes The only way we’ll know if the cycle is broken is if the bottom isn’t around October before a new bull market erupts
Top date was predicted, because when it happened, stupid cyclists started to sell. Also we had ATH before the halving. Cycles are gone.
If you're going to sell, at least wait for a new ATH. Selling during great discounted prices is foolish. You do only want major platforms. Like Kraken for example.
Invest long-term. Zoom out and buy at super dirt low prices. Then sit back, and wait until the monthly RSI etc. is at ATH, and then sell. Sure close to max profits.
If BTC behaves like past cycles, that's a good thing, because it means BTC will continue to recover strongly after sharp price drops and continue to reach new ATH.
Not buying when it was 100, 200, 2000, 20000. Bought now at ATH, waiting for the next run, but happy I finally got in the train.
Really? Based on what exactly is it a sham? Bitcoin has done exactly what it has always done the last four cycles. There are diminishing returns with growing market caps. Gold dropped nearly 50% from its ATH in the early 2010s and did absolutely nothing for 10 years while the S&P printer non stop all time highs. If anything, it seems Bitcoin is starting to behave more like gold than ever before.
Yes, been done for a long time. Meme coins and Trump scams were the end of the alts. 99% of them will never reach their previous ATH and die slowly over time.
This shit is marching nowhere.. Not even at ATH
For those who like graphs, here is a seldom used one. This graph shows how much Bitcoin has appreciated since the lowest point since the last ATH. We were on a tear from April 2nd to May 10th. Link: [https://imgur.com/a/D0hqiLk](https://imgur.com/a/D0hqiLk)
.23 doge at ATH was about 16c USD. I would not call that a gamble. I've paid more in fees than that.

I’ve been following Ben closely, he has been indeed on a good streak the past 2 years he has very good posts. However I was here in 2022-23 when he was also saying that bitcoin won’t pass 35k before halving and it went to ATH. I was curios how do you find the diminishing drawdown thesis. Do you think we will have a lower drop than 2022?
The new rules screwed every holder who didn't sell when was the best time to do it (at ATH, or cycle peak) due to the naive thought "the CGT discount will make me save in the long term". They changed the rules mid-game and this is pretty much theft but looks like in Australia the government can get away with anything. Good luck building any wealth with a government that takes basically half from every of your profit, after you took 100% of the risk and used savings that were already taxed. The only hope is that this gets reversed at some point but I seriously doubt that would happen in the foreseable future.
It’s great to be able to accumulate at a 40% discount. This is like stacking at $40k last cycle. You’d be up 3x to this ATH, nearly 2x to current price, and 1.5x to this cycle’s local low.
ATH color very soon….by July bitcoin should be 150k…..America is winning in Iran and they about to surrender I heard
Remember when it first hit $21k ATH, and then it just kept going up to $60k over the n xt two months? Yea, I sold at $21k because it hit ATH without waiting to see what it did next. Mistake, sure, but crazy enough it was a great decision in my life. That laid off my credit card debts and I haven't had credit card debt since then.

Bitcoin has not reached an all-time high in 2026. It has been 229 days since the last ATH.
The bottom according to the four year cycle since it has always happened one year later from the previous ATH.
Not quite, post inflation the ATH of 2021 it’s about 84k so we are actually lower. Bitcoin has been losing to inflation and a weakened dollar while everything else it’s still making new highs, I’m not truly sure if this it’s really a Bear Market because it doesn’t have much sense.
Well, this time around, most didn't have the opportunity to get greedy since we didn't really have an alt season, and most plays, especially ones from previous cycles, never hit their ATH again.
I’m in full out accumulation mode right now. Anything below 100k I’m an enthusiastic buyer. Once we get back to over 100k I’ll slow down and just make regular buys. Once we get back to ATH levels I’ll pull back more to focus on diversification/ targeting any debt.
There is no correct answer to this question and I have asked similar questions in the past. The best answer i have found from looking at past performance is, the "best" time to buy, at least in the past, has been when BTC is around %60 or more below previous ATH.. once it hits this threshold, it signals one of the best buying opportunities in the investment game.
It was still 10x what it had been 7 monnths before this. And it hit an new ATH in March 2013, goig on to hit 1k that year. Those days were very different.
Every single BTC ATH has been proportionally weaker than previous one, so face melting is very unlikely. I left crypto when I realized that and BTC first time crossed 60K. Most money went into building a house and after that I have invested in stock indices.

All time highs are decreasing in percentage every year. I’m typing this without a chart or calculator but based off my memory. 2017 bull run top, $19,500 previous ATH $1200 16x increase 2021 bull run, $68,000 previous ATH $19,500 3.5X increase 2025 bull run $125,000 previous $68,000 1.8% increase 2029 bull might conservative prediction $180,000-$215,000 1.4% increase if we’re lucky. Like I said, I’ve been over invested in Bitcoin since 2016, it’s out performed all my other assets by a lot, and I look at the charts constantly. So this is just based off my practical thinking, which isn’t very common in this sub. What’s your prediction.
Fixating on FDV is just a meme for people who can't be bothered to understand what's actually happening under the hood. HYPE just reached a new price ATH, but if you toggle over to market cap, it hasn't actually broken its previous peak mcap. Why? Simple, between these two price highs, the protocol bought back and burned far more coins than it emitted through staking.
BTC may well have had an ATH much higher than $225k but it’s also highly likely that it could then drop well below again. The only bet I’m taking is that BTC will be a better investment than anything else with a 10+ year target. I follow Power Law. These are the predictions. It shows BTC’s volatility. Typical Range / Corridor (support to resistance): • Lower band (support): \~$150K–$250K (deeper undervalued zone during bear phases). • Fair Value / Trendline: \~$350K – $410K • Upper band (resistance): \~$800K–$2.5M+ in strong bull scenarios, depending on the specific quantile bands (e.g., 83.5th–97.5th percentiles).
Nope. It's only noteworthy because of the ATH
I’m in the boat that believes we haven’t seen the bottom this bear cycle yet. That being said I would throw a decent large chuck in right now and start a DCA and have back ups in case it does dump more. BTC is well below ATH and most of us wouldn’t be here if we didn’t believe it will eventually hit it again and continue to go up… forever. I guess ask yourself what you believe?
Lump sum beats DCA, studies have looked into it and in the vast majority of cases, lump sum makes more gains than DCA. The only time it isn't true is at or near ATHs. We're nowhere near an ATH, we're close to a cycle bottom. I'd lump it in.

Bear market is right around the corner and when it begins you will definitely hate yourself for even considering entering a trade. Wait till -80% off ATH and signs of an emerging bull run in 18 months or so.
Hyperliquid gonna hit ATH in bear market
I don't know what to say...i bought XRP at .40 per coin in 2020 and bought some more on the way to ATH s in 2021. I sold 46% of my XRP holdings (about 40,000 coins) and i did really well. I have bought back in and sold a few more times. I am in profit and have had fun doing it. I never considered buying a bunch and holding it, maybe a really long time and just praying it went to the moon.
I just buying buying buying as I have been for 5 years now. What I need to to actually sell with next cycle. I have held and held and added and added. I may have been better off in a stock but that's not productive thinking I would have chosen one of the best stocks of the decade to go all in on. When, not if BTC and ETH run up and hit new ATH.. If I sell and don't get greedy I will be very happy with what I walk away with.
Crazy right? The 70s were ATH for a long time. On a high enough timeframe we are up only!

How much has it gone up since institutional investors jumped in and it hit ATH? They figured out how to make money on the swings. Chasing new ATH is a thing of the past. Why do you think the whole crypto market moves in tandem now?
You need faith - you need to believe. That came for me from time and experience. I remember when I first purchased in 2018 my investment fell to 1/3 of its value. That feels so terribly shitty, so I just put it away and stopped tracking it. Ive seen highs and lows so many times since then, but one constant is new ATH's and each time the crash is never quite as bad, but I expect it because I know it has to happen before then next surge. Ive tried to play with trading a bit, because in hindsight, it was a no brainer, but when I tried it, it was too unnerving and didnt actually perform as expected and I bought back in at a loss. A few times I've had opportunities to recover a bit. Now, for me I am satisfied with what I have - what I count is how much BTC I have, not what its worth at any given day. Its fun to watch when it is surging, and while we are a lot lower than our last ATH I am still higher than a number I was quite excited to see not too long ago either. Be a believer, stack sats, and just leave it alone. I am getting older and have an idea I may exit some or all in the next 5-10 years so will be looking and watching for the right time.
AI says 75% chance of new ATH end of 2026 early 2027. Sooo stack up boys
Did you really believe BTC would make a new ATH during a bear market cycle? It’s astonishing how every cycle people want to pretend things are different. One of the huge reasons why BTC is so great are the cycles, hopefully that never changes, because as long as they exist BTC retains its ability to give massive returns.
If you are long term holder from 2021 or 2018 cycle, there is literally no point at all selling right now if you didnt sold already at 100k+ Sure you are still in bennefits most likely but idk, are you going to sell after dropping 40% from ATH? If you are a veteran from past cycles you already know how things works here and you know that you shouldnt sell now if you didnt when it was at ATH.
Well, yes. But more importantly the question should be about how much more than a 10x are YOU going to get from it. The benefit to BTC is that it is cyclical. I got in a little after you; but it took me until the 2018 cycle to finally fully understand that I don't need to hold it during the bears. At the same time you see the euphoric rises to ATH you should be looking every day at the strength of it and waiting for it to have a drop, and watching the 4 year cycle so you can sell it; then rebuy at the end of the midterm year (assuming you are in the US). Thats where you make your money. You literally saw a 7.8x gain in BTC this past cycle when it bottomed around 15.8k and ran up to the new ATH of 125k last year. Now of course noone can time it perfectly, but it bottomed and topped right in the same quarters as it has over and over on the 4 year cycle. You just have to be brave enough to sell it off on the topping year and be patient so you can rebuy waaaay more in Q4 of the bottoming year.
Pretty decent opportunity right now yea We’re about 40% off ATH. 40% off last cycle ATH was a price of $41k. If you bought then, you’d be up 85% in 4.5 years to our current levels and 200% to this cycle ATH in 4 years. Both of these are excellent returns. We could very well fall again (like we did last cycle), but as long as you hold and keep accumulating you should get a solid return with a 4+ year time horizon. If you have 0 bitcoin exposure, I would probably combine a lump sum and DCA approach. Maybe take 1/4-1/2 of your total to lump in now, then DCA the rest through November in case we drop further. Might not beat a full lump now but will probably keep you more sane.
[https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/XMRBTC/?timeframe=ALL](https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/XMRBTC/?timeframe=ALL) \-50% all time, -35% in past 5 years. Meanwhile HYPE/BTC is at ATH and up 130% just YTD and up even more all time. Stay poor LOL
There is only one consistent pattern in BTC's behaviour throughout its life: In monthly and higher timeframes, it had downtrends BUT never became strictly bearish (creating a lower high and lower low, then breaking the lower low and confirming it). Gold also has had a strictly bullish chart since ages ago. Now you need to pay attention to a few things: 1) Strict/strong bullish or bearish market doesn't mean market corrections are not going to be *deep*. It means in terms of technical analysis, the chart has not undergone a ln orderflow shift. This depends on your time frame analysis. Long term like monthly or higher, this holds true for both BTC and Gold. Lower timeframes it's a different story. 2) Both has experienced massive dips in their lives, but rose again and made ATH after ATH. 3) When you look at BTC monthly chart, you can see each bullish leg has become weakened: First leg 23 months and 40k% increase in price, Second leg 29 months and 9.5k% increase in price, third leg 26 months and 1.7k% increase in price and final the last which is around 32 months and 600% increase in price. Technically, we're witnessing Bitruns getting weaker compared to previous one. This is what supply and demand are telling us. But does this mean BTC will have a massive crash? No one knows. Does this mean BTC won't have another run? Historically it had, so it's something I will risk investing again. BTC experiencing beyond 1k% increase in price is significantly harder than when it was back in its early life. But that requires a fundamental analysis. If you look at gold, it's a bit different. Gold behaviour in its bullish runs are stronger comparedto BTC: 139 months and 600% increase in price and next leg 120 months and 400% increase in price. Obviously, this is basic technical stuff but I think this works for you. BTC is worth investing and it can eventually achieve what you think. Whether that happens requires a lot of shit in the world to click. You're a hodler. So maybe in next bitrun, save a bit of profits. Just in case...
I think you're correct to a degree. When the coin is going sideways it's likely your first world issue. When it's popping off more that second world you've laid out. My suggestion is hold an amount you're safe with regardless of what happens, sell off portions when we hit new ATH's, reinvest if you want to go long term with it. Try to get your money off the dealers table as logically as possible while leaving yourself with some sats in the process for any potential big boom runs.
RemindMe! 10 years "Is Bitcoins ATH more than $768690?"
If you want to do a little math, look at the declining ratios of each bull cycle, from bottom to ATH. They are not just declining slowly, they are in exponential decay. Each time getting a smaller fraction of gains compared to the previous cycle. We didn't have a 10x last cycle. And we're likely getting a fraction of the gains. But if you're willing to wait multiple cycles, you can still get 10x. But it could potentially take 3 cycles. So nearly 10 years.
Damn value of your 39k moons is only $351 now but ATH was worth $27,300

hype/btc ATH, hype/eth ATH, hype/sol ATH
ur a real smart ass to someone tryna tell you to go lok uo the cycle and count the days ur self dipshit , people were tlaking about the ATH on oct 6 2025 in 2022 !!! bUT cYCLe tHEoRy dOeSNT exiST
The whole landscape has changed this cycle. Gone are the days of altcoins making 10x or more gains. ETH barely made a new ATH and then reversed. If this hasn't created new BTC maxis, then I don't know what to say.
No its not. Didnt even print new ATH last cycle.
Too many companies with stock price 90%+ down from ATH jumped into "btc in reserves" headline as a hail Mary for them. Announcing it today sets of an immediate sketch alarm. Why are they doing it now? Why didn't they have btc in reserve some years ago when it became popular? And of course if the product or service is still not commensurate with the money customers pay it doesn't matter what the business got on the balance sheet.
Sell and buy back to capture the loss while you still can! That way, you will still be on the same cost basis as them at ATH with an additional tax write-off that they don’t have…

It's almost 40% from its ATH. I would say it is a good time.
$500k, down from it’s $1.1m ATH
The four year cycle has never failed. Fall 2013/2017/2021/2025: BTC ATH Fall 2014/2018/2022/2026: BTC Bear low You can still dump.
I do appreciate ETF expanding btc adoption across board **[pro]**, however we must also acknowledge it's **cons**. With the amount of ETF inflows one would expect btc price to already be above 90k+ but that is not the case, yet; when there is a considerable outflow on ETF the whole market takes a tanking. A straight answer here is; ETF shields investors through limited exposure. However, most analyst now look at ETF in/outflow to paint a picture, so the crypto market feels the negative of every ETF major outflow... But since ETF inflow are not direct buys, the market doesn't feel the impact of the inflow **[at least not immediately like we saw during the last ATH of 124k+]**. To simply put, ETF is dulling the btc/crypto market vibe.
**🥶 Is the Crypto Winter TRULY behind us? 🌅** What if Bitcoin already found its absolute bottom at the $60,000 mark? While the mainstream media is entirely focused on Wall Street breaking records, a monumental paradigm shift is happening quietly in the crypto market. 🤫 In my latest article, we dive deep into the charts, the on-chain data, and the macroeconomic factors that suggest a new era is dawning. Here is a sneak peek at what is unfolding: * 🐳 **Whales are Accumulating:** The $60k support level has been fiercely defended, acting as an ultimate technical fortress. * 📈 **The 50-Month MA Magic:** History often rhymes! Touching this crucial moving average on the monthly chart has historically ignited massive bull runs toward new All-Time Highs. * 🔥 **Altcoins are Awakening:** Zcash (ZEC) recently exploded by 50%, while Ondo (ONDO) and Toncoin (TON) are showing incredible resilience. Liquidity is intelligently flowing back into the ecosystem! * 💼 **ETF Dynamics:** We recently witnessed a $630M single-day outflow... but is it a bearish signal, or just healthy institutional profit-taking before the next big leap? Targeting a new ATH of **$126,000** might seem incredibly ambitious right now, but the technicals and the institutional setups are quietly lining up behind the scenes. 🚀 Ready to understand why $60,000 is the ultimate line in the sand for this cycle?
And still ETF net inflows are <10% below their ATH with IBIT already back at its ATH. They are back buying since February.
If BTC ever gets back to ATH somehow I'm out. This shit is not worth the risk to reward. Literally could have just did an all world vanguard etf in the last year and been up a decent amount.
It's over, all the pumps are fake. Stocks at ATH, bitcoin is in the $hit. Road to $15k by the end of July.
You're not obligated to short as no one stated such. However if you're guessing that we will go that low, it is because you want to maximize how much btc you can theoretically scoop as that's what your guess is hinged upon. This is why leverage shorting was suggested as it can be a maximization tool as well. We on this side just believe your guess is misguided as it is not based on anything but "btc typically finds a bottom a year after its ATH" This is beyond idiotic.
has it? Like I can distinctly remember back in 2021 when it seemed like crypto was everywhere. Buy bitcoin this, buy ethereum that. Elon Musk was pumping dogecoin. Even heading into late 2024 when Trump won the US election, there was this massive wave of hype for the first "crypto president", and bitcoin was gonna go to the moon or whatever. Now fast forward to today - bitcoin is stuck in a lull, Trump coin is down 97% from its ATH, and general overall interest in crypto appears to be drying up outside of terminally online "HODL" bros. I'm not saying the price of bitcoin has necessarily "peaked", like do I believe $125k is likely the peak for all of eternity? Probably not. But the generational gains of the early adopters, the wave of big hype, it all seems to have passed us by at this point. What are your thoughts?

it still did an ATH not considering inflation
In the past 6 months we had euphoria as a new ATH of ~$125k came and everyone (once again) proclaimed the supercycle was here. Next stop $1m. Then the crash down to $60k. Now the bears come out and all you hear about is how it’s going to $40k and they’ll buy back in there. Then sideways action for months and months. It dragged on and people stop posting. It becomes a ghost town. Now we’re at the first significant rally from the bottom. Approx 33% off the bottom. So what’s the dominant sentiment? Some say “bear trap” and it’s going back down. Optimists say bear over and we’re going back up, buuuut they have PTSD so keep it on the dl. Wait until $90k and you’ll start seeing the open ended enthusiasm.
Except...it didn't double its ATH this time. That would imply a roughly 140k peak. Returns will continue shrinking over time. Probably get 50% higher next top. About 200k-ish. That's 4 years from now, though.
CORRECTION MAP: ATH: $749.48 Alert 1: $730 (correction confirmed — start deploying) Target 1: $720 (38.2% Fib) Target 2: $699 (50% Fib) ← primary reload zone Deep case: $673 (61.8% GP — unlikely but possible) not a collapse, just a correction! Current ATH: $749.48 (today) W2 correction: $699–720 (4-8 weeks) W3 target: ~$848 (+14% from correction low) The China US news that just broke delays but still inevitable. Possible scenario- Blow-off top (most likely) The tariff deal gives SPY one final W5 extension to $755-765. Smart money distributes INTO the gap-up. The Hindenburg Omen, volume divergence, and hawkish Fed are still underneath. The correction still comes — just from a slightly higher level and maybe 1-2 weeks later. W2 target shifts from $699-720 to maybe $705-725.
Ahh, a young one I assume. I am about to turn 46 years old so for me, ATH after the 2032 halving.
I agree. It didn’t even double its ATH last cycle.
Still close to ATH in cumulative net inflows again (I think IBIT is already there), while price is lagging behind.
Pretty much dead brav. Bull cycle is long gone and this cycle we didnt have an alt season. Eth barely touched it's previous ATH and BTC could not even double its previous ATH. And most other alt coins are total dead
Personally I see 1 more big drop going sub 60 before marking a new ATH. IMO index funds along with many stocks will go down in the later half of the year.
No, my logic is also based on the overall outlook of the crypto market. When you see the #2 cryptocurrency failing to break its previous ATH from 2021, you know things are looking grim... I think "no new ATHs, period" will become the norm soon for all crypto coins out there, apart from the really new ones.
More or less. Cycle bottom around October. Like EVERY 4 YEARS. One year after ATH.

Naive beyond words. Inflation spiking, bonds going up, regular market nosebleeding ATH. Will vacuum crypto down with it
How do you define the cycle? 1 year accumulation, 1 year rally to previous ATH, 1 year rally to new ATH and then 1 year bear market? Some would say the 2024 ATH broke that rule. Others would say since Q4 2025 was the peak it retains the rule. Either way what I talking about is what is to come and not what has happened so far. I think the 4 year cycle will break. There will be no 1 year bear market and there will be a new ATH in 2026 or 2027.
In apathy*. It also had an ATH before the halving.
36 million? I want whatever highly enriched hopium you're smoking. I think it will go higher than its old ATH but 36 million? Lol.
