The total DeFi market cap also reached the last summer lows while decent DeFi projects suffered 90% devaluation or more which are typical bear market bottom numbers.
DeFi is a risky asset class, it can be destroyed once regulations comes in.
Oh and always do your math. I have seen serious problems lately regarding calculating %.
For example if AAVE total loss goes to -95% from -90% that's not -5% loss from now, but -50% from the current price. #AAVE
I compared a couple of alts - that already existed in the last cycle - and #BTC and I have to admit again that this cycle is completely different from this perspective.
The key points to compare:
- Cycle peaks
- The point when BTC is losing the 100 week MA
...trying to believe that we are going to witness the same rally from these levels again. Market not always gives a 2nd chance.
The macro outlook completely changed since then - quantitative easing turned into tightening, inflation, energy crisis, supply chain issues are reality.
CT is full with different scenarios and everybody is 100% confident about of their assumptions.
- It's just the beginning, dead cat bounce and going lower, then up
- It's the beginning of a multi year macro bear & recession
- One more pump before recession
- Up only from here.
Cycle top - lengthening cycles (thread). 1) Although I still see the possibility of a new ATH - at least statistically - I would not be disappointed if the top would be 69.000$ for this cycle.
I don't argue with the possibility but with the arguments itself.
2) My biggest concern is that people tend to give too much importance of halving dates.
I know it fundamentally positive (block reward halving) and important, but does it necessarily has to mark exact periods in the market?
3) My subjective, speculative perspective: find the points when #BTC found support on the 200 MA on the weekly TF after it made a new ATH.
Since the 200 WMA didn't exists before 2014, I draw the presumed place of it.
