Looking in the Rearview Mirror: My Top 5 Insights from the First Half of the 4-Year Crypto Cycle.

The crypto world is anything but predictable, and this year has been packed with surprises. We’ve seen it all—from market lows to peak euphoria (now). 

Flexibility and market awareness are everything.

Here are my top 5 insights:

1. Never underestimate BTC. Study the cycles—history doesn’t repeat itself, but it often rhymes.
2. Token ETFs aren’t always the answer. Take ETH: timing is crucial, and demand must be clear.
3. Networking is gold in Web3. It unlocks top deals, insights, and media opportunities.
4. Low float, high FDV tokens fueled the memecoin craze, which hasn’t solved real deeper issues.
5. The airdrop bubble is overinflated, leading projects to farm users without lasting engagement.

All these insights help me position myself in a growing market. What’s been your biggest takeaway?
