Stop Dreaming of 10x Altcoins – Face the Market Reality
Everyone’s chasing that magical 10x or 20x altcoin gain. Just like last bull run, people regret missing out and now swear they’ll "hold no matter what" this time. But here’s the truth: most altcoins won’t go 10x in this cycle.
Markets evolve. In 2017, 100x coins were everywhere. In 2021, 10x coins were common, 100x became rare. This cycle? Even good altcoins might do 5x–10x, and most garbage coins will barely 2x–3x, if at all. The dream of catching a "Hippo moodeng" isn’t realistic—and even if you do, would you really go in big?
Let’s talk Bitcoin:
2017 bull top: ~$19K
Bear low: ~$3K
2021 peak: ~$69K (3.6x from previous high, 20x from bottom)
2022–23 bear low: ~$15K
2025 peak estimate: $150K–$200K (3x from previous ATH, 10x from bottom) Next cycle? The rise may be smaller.
Markets follow the law of diminishing returns. Just like the "low-hanging fruit" in Das Kapital: early movers get easy wins. Over time, the easy gains are gone. What’s left needs skills, strategy, or genius.
Don’t let past bull cycles fool you. This market rewards research and risk management, not wishful thinking.
Focus on quality, understand the cycle, and stay realistic.
