Anyone here that was in crypto during the 2017 bull run? I got in towards the end that the year and was a complete normie back then, thus wasn’t well tuned into what was happening. Were there narratives back then about a potential super cycle, no more bear markets, etc?

I was there. Entered Dec 2017 and lost pretty much 70% during Jan/Feb. people said that’s the end of crypto. No super cycle stories I heard otherwise I would be sitting on millions right now 😂

^ what they said. I entered a supposed dip in Feb 2018, only to have value fall off a cliff. Wasn’t too concerned because at that time, you only put in money that you were prepared to lose. So I ignored it for 3 years until I got a price alert. Immediately recognized signals for a run, abet short. Started throwing in petty cash and reading up when to pull everything back out. Only then did I realize the greater game.

One thing is different now, there’s a lot more sophisticated analysis and diversified use cases for crypto than there was in 2017/18. Back then, folks just yelled “to the moon” a lot.

Supercycle is all new. It’s driven by macro picture falling apart. Really wild to hear
