Crypto Influencers Claim Bears, but Many Secretly Bullish
If everyone is supposedly bearish then: Why do I get hundreds of comments saying "I can't wait for you to be wrong" on every video I post expressing a bearish view? Why do dozens of influencers tweet about me weekly laughing and saying that BTC follows M2, ISM, etc. and that this is a 5 year cycle or supercycle? Why is it that every time I join a twitter space, the collective response is for people to label me a doomer for having the audacity to suggest midterm years are not great for BTC? It's easy to pretend like everyone is a bear, but one look at plenty of influencers on this app would show the opposite. I see a lot of influencers who missed the top and faded the four year cycle now desperately want the market to bail them out. I see influencers that shilled altcoins for 4 years because they thought alt season was coming and now they desperately are searching for any reason that the market won't go lower. Social interest in crypto is still trending down. Monetary policy remains restrictive, and macro headwinds continue to exist for the first half of 2026. BTC always forms lows in February of midterm years, then has countertrend rallies that lasted a few weeks, before the market then drops again. No amount of mental gymnastics will change how the market cycles tend to work. We can keep pretending that everyone is a bear, but one look at the comment section on any of my bearish tweets would prove otherwise.

Bitcoin's Top Hits Late Business Cycle, Bleeding to Gold
The reason this four year cycle top for Bitcoin "feels different" is because this is the first major top BTC has had during a late business cycle environment. It explains why there was no alt season, why BTC has been bleeding...

Predictive Paradox: Market Expectations Defy Themselves
This shows the mental gymnastics I keep referring to. First it was "If everyone believes in the four year cycle then it won't happen." Then BTC still topped in Q4 2025 anyways. Then, in January when BTC was $98k, it was "Oh since...

Bitcoin and Gold Yielded Comparable Returns Since 2017
For years, Gold bugs laughed at Bitcoiners on 30% drops and said "sOmE sToRe Of VaLuE" Then Gold dropped 30% and Bitcoiners said the same thing back. The truth is that whether you bought BTC or Gold in late 2017, your return...

SPX Down 5%; Watch for 10% Trigger
SPX has already dropped 5%. If it continues to drop to 10%+, we run the risk of entering into the negative feedback loop I have mentioned. As of right now, the negative feedback loop has not happened, as layoffs/initial claims remain...

Bitcoin’s Midterm Dip Isn’t Doom, It’s Reality
For months, any bearish take is written off as being a "doomer" Bitcoin is doing *what it always does* in midterm years. There is a difference between being a doomer and being realistic. The price cheerleaders are unable to separate the two.

Imagine telling people it’s a bear market 4 months ago. Then saying BTC will rally in early March and that all the supercycle guys will lose their minds and that they will then attack me. Predicting the toxic permabull emotions is 100x...
Seasonality Reveals Bitcoin Weakness Amid Apathy, Headwinds
