Profit Taking Missed Since 2023 🟩 $LINK at $35 $ONDO at $2 $RENDER at $13 $KAS at $0.20 $RIO at $2.8 $KTA at $1.5 $SUI at $5 ( Add your regrets below 👇 ) This is not a post to tell you that it's over, this is about not making the same mistake again in 2026. → NARRATIVE RUNS IN THIS CYCLE In 2024, AI coins ran. RWA and DePIN were printing insane gains. And in 2025, we had Privacy, Staking, DeFi, and new Layer1 narratives taking turns. The opportunities were right there, wave after wave. But most kept holding the same bags from 2023, waiting for them to magically “come back.” Crypto doesn’t reward loyalty. It rewards awareness, rotation, and timing. Most communities would have called you "not bullish enough" when you shared a sensible price target. Even they cannot believe how bad it went for some of them after that honeymoon period where their Altcoin was the next big thing after Solana. → WHAT TO DO NOW? Now we’re back at a crucial point in this cycle. Altcoin Market Cap is once again sitting at trendline support. This is where disbelief peaks and where narratives take over. If Bitcoin decides to give one more go, we could see yet another rotation phase. So no, 2025 was not a bear market for alts. It’s a bear market for the alts you married two years ago. We learn our lessons and move on.
