The market has stressed everyone out. Completely. It's insane how it is.

I was tired last year and datigue doesn't even begin to define my position now.

Extremely tired, but without a choice. Either it pumps or it finishes me patapata.

Diamond hands by force

ETH life has spoilt completely!

The US SEC Acting Chairman has launched a crypto task force dedicated to developing a comprehensive and clear regulatory framework for crypto assets.

Trump Has Mentally Broken Many Market Players (Not Really)

Twitter user Ice, one of the Jones DAO apes, shares his thoughts:

"$TRUMP has broken the spirit of most market participants."
Even veterans with 7–8 figure portfolios, who missed out on 100x gains, are saying they feel emotionally wrecked.

This mass hysteria is driven by several factors:

1. $TRUMP became the fastest token to reach a multi-billion-dollar market cap.
2. After three years of a brutal bear market, even this bullish cycle feels bearish to many due to liquidity spreading thin.
3. Many have just started making money again, only to see their perfect investment models crumble.


The market is closer to its peak than to the bottom.
What used to seem like a cycle peak years away now feels just months away (predictions range from March to October or the end of the year).

There’s a sense that $TRUMP might lead to the end of the industry in 3–4 years.
Read it as “the final run of the last cycle.”

Key Observations:

1. Ethereum’s struggle
Ethereum continues to feel useless. Its activity has been drained by Solana and the liquidity distribution across L2s. Long-term bets on its consensus mechanism have failed.

2. The crypto industry thrives on instability
Every cycle sees events that raise the probability of crypto *never coming back* to 50%+.

3. The rise of influencer-driven tokens

Building narratives and tokens around influential figures isn’t new. First, it was Doge/Elon, and now Trump/Trump.

If you’ve lived through Axie, Luna, Sandbox, Shiba, Solana, BNB, and others, you know this story.

The only remarkable thing this time is the speed with which $TRUMP reached a multi-billion-dollar valuation.
Some Takeaways:

- We’ve hit the highs
Look at the top 3 tokens and realize we might be at the last play. But that’s not certain.

- Liquidity is still abundant
The SPX has grown +50% since crypto’s 2021 peak, so there’s plenty of liquidity to recreate past cycle conditions.

- $SOL is the driver of this cycle
Inflows into Solana have pushed the token to new all-time highs. This cycle is easier—you know where to look for gems and who’s running the casino.

- ETH will likely hit a new ATH
But when it does, the end will be near. Even in 2021, ETH hit its first ATH about a month after BTC (April/May). That cycle ended in May 2021 (with a minor extension a few months later).


$TRUMP is only the second token with a $10B+ market cap in this cycle.
In the last cycle, there were about 50. But back then, the money was in second- and third-tier bets and forks:
- BNB pumped → Cake went to the moon.
- LINK surged → useless oracles hit their highs.
- Olympus grew → a whole season of OHM forks exploded to billions.

Now? The game is smaller, but the stakes feel bigger.

I just opened a long position on trump and I'm not understanding it at the moment

Can an expert here analyze if I should close the trade now, at least the loss is minimal at the moment.

One needs a strong heart in crypto o

Which exchange?

It’s either bull run no dey for this cycle or they want to frustrate us and take us unaware ..

Look at this one hour timeframe and tell me if this looked like something willing to continue the upward movement for now.

You're competing with professionals, mathematicians, extremely intelligent people, you can't be buying coin like a rookie without sound technical analysis skills and expect to take money from these people consistently.

It's going to drop to around that 35-30 before we can hope if buyers will come in.

@Adasun, this is in response to you. Sorry I misquoted your post, thought you were trying to throw shades, and arguing isn't something I do anymore about trading.

Look at this post I made on Sunday night, I was already anticipating a move down to 35/30 for buyers to come in as that's where typical supply and demand trader would be waiting to long after that drop.

Now, look at that selling volume reducing as price hits the two horizontal lines of 30/35. If I trade the 1hr timeframe I would long it ASAP after that selling volume dried off.

Would you say this is easy too as it had already happened? I've been trading this method for some time now, and trust me, most of my entries are always at the top or bottom of reversals.

Well, market pumps or not, I’ll exit by March ending .

Did you cash out from Trump or you're trapped?

mo cashed out pa..😂😂, paid all my bills with it I used part of it to buy $mega and $vine ( dem don dip finish ). I used the rest to dca on pepe, crv and floki.
And I’m not looking forward to buy it again ..

I think $trump is cooking something?

##

Herd mentality in trading

It's when you have this fixated mindset about the direction which the market should go. You predicted uptrend but you can see the market going other way..So you want to wait to see where it will get to, hahaha na lagoon.

If market change direction change direction too

Great!

I said yet to make such long stick since launched. .

I monitor coins which I want to trade before entering market.

Melania is yet to pump since after launch

If launched at 11 and now around 3, the pumping should be around 25
