#美国终止政府停摆危机 those altcoin big pump missed in the first half of 2022



It's quite heartbreaking to say—this year the altcoin market is overall sluggish, but looking back at the charts, I realize I've actually missed several opportunities. Now that I've sorted it out, it's like a summary of paying tuition for myself:

**The wave from April to May: Misjudged the panic bottom**
I remember that the US tariff policy triggered a chain reaction of big pump, causing BTC to drop directly to around the previous high support of 75000. The community was flooded with panic statements like "the US stock market is going to freeze," but in hindsight, that turned out to be the perfect buying opportunity.
After BTC stabilizes and rebounds, targets like pengu, virtual, turbo, pnut, and moodeng will take off directly, while ethfi and zbcn will also explode. But at that time, I was focused on ena, ondo, s, and ldo—resulting in ena only moving at the beginning of July, while ondo and s are still lying on the floor to this day.

**From June to August: The clues have actually been laid out before us**
This rebound wasn't as fierce as the last one, but pengu, ena, cfx, spk, and vine still showed good gains. A more typical example is bio, which increased fivefold from the end of June to the end of August—there were reports in early August about launching a platform, but who would actually invest real money at that time?
It was only during the review that I realized these coins had news support before the big pump; I either didn't see it at the time or saw it but hesitated to get in.

**On-chain guerrilla warfare after September**
The second half of the market has become more fragmented, with the main battlefield shifting to on-chain, and the time window is shorter. In mid-September, the live-streaming coin concept gained some popularity, and during the National Day holiday, there was a small surge on the BSC chain. At the end of October, x402 drove virtual up by 150%. Additionally, zec rose from the end of September to mid-November, bringing along a batch of privacy coins and old coins.

Now I understand a principle: when everyone is discussing a certain opportunity, it is often already at the end; new opportunities are always hiding in the corners, slowly fermenting. So, one must cultivate a sense of the market, review frequently, and act less—at least don’t stand on the sidelines during the next round of opportunities, lamenting "if only I had known."
BTC-2.93%
PENGU-9.6%
VIRTUAL-8.31%
TURBO-8.56%
