🔄 What Phase Is the Crypto Cycle In Now?
The crypto cycle typically goes through 4 phases: accumulation → markup (bullish) → distribution → markdown (bearish). BTC is currently consolidating after its ATH $126K (Oct 2025), followed by a correction to $78K —this pattern often appears during the post-distribution re-accumulation phase.
Institutions continue to accumulate despite retail uncertainty—historically, this combination is a hallmark of the accumulation phase.

$PI It is truly extraordinary to see Dr. Ni and Dr. Chengdiao Fan joining top-tier institutions and tech giants such as NVIDIA, Google, Microsoft, and Bank of America, alongside leading blockchain protocols (XDC, Sei, Injective)! This marks an important milestone bridging traditional finance, AI, and Web3.

Institutions are quietly accumulating around $78K, while retail investors are waiting for lower prices—the script is all too familiar.

The choppy action before the markup is the most grueling, but history never simply repeats—it rhymes.
