Total Crypto Market Cap – End of Cycle or Extended Phase?

📊 Today let’s talk about the total crypto market capitalization.

Scrolling through the charts today, we were both surprised — and a bit shocked 😅 — to see that the current market drop perfectly aligns with the end of the cycle we calculated three years ago!

👉 Back in November 2022, we released a series of ideas —
for BTC price ($15–16K)
and for total crypto market cap ($750–800B),
stating that it was the bottom before the next major growth phase.

And yes, in 2024 we continued these reflections (thankfully, the internet remembers everything 😉).

Unfortunately, the current post-halving cycle turned out much calmer than the previous ones.
📉 Only +60% or roughly x2 from lows to highs...
Pretty modest compared to 2017 or 2020–21 🤷‍♂️

Big players have entered the game — and now they’re teaching crypto traders to be happy with smaller profits.

Still, we believe this growth cycle isn’t over yet — it’s just entered extra time ⚡

🔹 The October 11th drop on the global market cap chart was barely noticeable — heavyweights held surprisingly strong.
🔹 A clean retest took place, which is technically a positive sign.
🔹 When compared to the USDT.D chart, a ray of hope for 2026 appears 🌅

🔹 And if we ever get that “lucky x2” rise in total market cap — hopefully it’ll come mostly from alts, not just the Top 5–10 giants!

🤔 What do you think — are we just in the calm before the next big wave,
or is crypto’s best chapter already behind us?
