Been watching the charts and macro indicators but honestly getting mixed signals everywhere.
Some analysts are calling for Q2 2024, others pushing it to 2025. The ETF approvals changed things but then we got all this regulatory noise.
What’s your take on timing?
Timing crypto bull runs is like predicting forex breakouts - nearly impossible, but you can watch for confluence.
I’ve tracked crypto since 2016. The pattern needs three things: institutional money flowing in, retail FOMO building, and a catalyst event.
Right now institutions are buying but retail’s still scared from the last crash. ETF approvals were huge but we need adoption beyond Bitcoin.
My gut says we’re still accumulating. Could be 6 months, could be 18 months. I’m just DCA-ing into the majors and waiting for momentum to shift.
Regulatory stuff will sort itself out. Always does.
Late 2024 feels right maybe 2025.
AI models are calling 2025 for the next big cycle. Check out this analysis:
The tech’s getting pretty good at catching patterns we miss.
Focus on the money flow, not predictions. Crypto trends change when big players enter the market. Institutions are accumulating but there is no need to rush. ETF approvals are just one access point and won’t cause the big impact many expect. The real change will come when traditional finance incorporates crypto into their portfolios. That’s when retail will follow and prices will rise. For now, we wait. It might happen this year if conditions are right, but 2025 seems more likely.
It’s tough to predict crypto bull runs because there are so many factors at play.
While ETF approvals are significant, market sentiment can shift quickly, and technical analysis doesn’t tell the whole story.
I prefer dollar-cost averaging into my positions rather than trying to pinpoint exact entry points.
