Whenever a major crypto industry blowup happens, a lot of people think the industry is finished. Then somehow, an entirely unexpected narrative comes out of nowhere, creates another wealth effect, and gets the industry back on track.
2018: ICOs collapse. Everything goes to zero.
2019: A dead market. Gambling on small-cap coins, perpetual futures, and mainnet launch announcements.
2020: DeFi summer. Yield farming, insane pumps, overnight fortunes, and rug pulls.
2021: L1/L2 mania, #Solana , #BNB Chain, NFTs.
2022: LUNA, FTX. Total devastation. Crypto is declared dead once again.
2023: Meme coins start taking over.
2024/2025: Meme coins explode everywhere. New chains, new trends, new millionaires.
2026: AI agents on Base, #Robinhood meme, and now it’s quiet again.
See the pattern in crypto? Every time we think the industry is over, something completely unexpected shows up and changes everything.
I’ve never worried about whether this industry will survive. The only question is: will you still be here when the next wave hits?
You don’t need to predict what’s next. You just need to make it to that point. The next driver of a wealth effect might not even have a narrative yet.
Starting over from scratch has always been a defining feature of this industry. $SOL $BNB
