This moment feels very similar to those months and years when 90% of the old CryptoBred crowd slowly disappeared.
Back then, the team once had 50–60 people, and then one by one they all went their separate ways.
Some left because they ran out of money and gambled everything away.
Others left because they got bored.
Some moved on to learn new industries and professions.
Others said they just needed a break and would be back soon.
And as usual, most of them never came back at all.
I’ve lived through times like that several times already. And every single time, even in those long flat periods, there were still opportunities to make very good money — sometimes more, sometimes less. I’ve also seen the opposite: people waiting for two years for the market to come back, finally quitting in one day with the conclusion that “crypto is over,” and then a week or two later the market starts ripping hard.
But now, in my opinion, the situation is a bit different.
Back then crypto was much more isolated, almost like it lived in its own world. Now the market is tied to legislation, funds, politics, regulation, and institutional capital. The level of integration is much higher. That’s why I don’t think the market can simply be forgotten for two years the way it once was. Most likely, this pause will be shorter.
But just like in previous flat markets and bear markets, the key thing now is balance.
On one hand, you don’t want to miss your next PNKSTR-type opportunity — and there have been dozens of stories like that since 2017.
On the other hand, you can’t fall into overtrading. Overtrading kills especially brutally. Because in flat markets, when people feel pressure to have constant income, that’s exactly when most traders start grinding their bankrolls into dust through questionable trades just because they “urgently need to make money.”
That’s the whole point:
You still need to monitor the market 24/7. Or, like I wrote before, choose a working model for yourself — for example, from 3 PM to midnight, 5 days a week, plus lazy monitoring the rest of the time.
And you have to be ready for the fact that you may spend weeks reading, watching, listening — and doing absolutely nothing. That kind of time exists too, and you need to learn how to accept it. But at any moment, something truly important can happen that pays for an entire month of waiting. That’s the strange nature of this job.
Right now, crypto looks almost dead to most people.
And in periods like this, what matters most is acting correctly.
