Could this be the final bull market in crypto? My view might be different from what you think.



Rather than the last round, it's more accurate to say this is the last bull market where you can easily make money.

Recently, I chatted with a seasoned player, and his conclusion was quite sobering—opportunities are disappearing, making money is becoming increasingly difficult, and he's decided to gradually exit. But my perspective is completely opposite.

The crypto market won't be without a bull run; it's just that the rules have been completely changed.

Think about how past bull markets played out—relying entirely on sentiment, storytelling, and creating liquidity. Whether the stories are true or not doesn't matter; what's important is the rapid rise. This approach used to be foolproof, but it ultimately can't last long.

What will the next phase of the bull market look like? More like traditional mature markets.

No longer paying for vague stories, people are starting to ask solid questions—does this thing have real demand? Can it generate sustainable revenue? Does it have a genuine user base? Can it connect to real-world applications?

妖币 and MEME coins? They will definitely still exist, but their identity has long been clear—just speculative tools, not the trend of the era.

Just look at this round of MEME market. No matter how much the sentiment is amplified, it's almost impossible to replicate the legend of PEPE. It's not that everyone's luck has run out, but that the market has truly matured.

Crypto is undergoing a transformation—from a pure emotion-driven casino to a market that filters for value.

The next bull market will definitely come, but the ticket only belongs to those willing to upgrade their understanding.
MEME-3,36%
PEPE-1,28%

To be honest, this round is truly different. Retail investors' good days are coming to an end, and precise targeting is the way to go. --- I've heard this phrase about upgrading cognition too many times. The key is how to upgrade cognition, which still depends on who holds more chips. --- Is the妖币 dead? Not at all, just changing disguises to continue cutting, the套路 is always the same. --- Real demand, continuous profits... sounds like brainwashing institutions, making us all buy the bottom of their positions. --- The last round of easy money-making is amazing; it's the first time I've heard such an honest opinion. --- Still that saying, if there's a story, people will buy it. Stories never go out of style, only the storytellers change. --- Tickets belong to those who upgrade their cognition? Alright, I'll wait and see if your price rises after you finish upgrading your cognition.

read between the lines here... dude's basically saying the free money era is over and most people won't catch the next wave. he's right tho, meme coins are just shuffling retail around at this point. the real move happens when institutions actually care about fundamentals, not hype cycles. question is who has the discipline to wait for it

According to my analysis, this guy's statement that "the bull market for easy money is gone" is actually not pessimistic, but rather clear-headed. The days when storytelling alone could make things take off are indeed gone forever, and on-chain data has long been lying. Only those who are willing to dig into real needs will survive until the next cycle, not those who constantly focus on the rise of MEME coins.

Exactly right. In the past, you could make money just by telling stories. Now, you need real substance. It seems that some people are already falling behind on the path of cognitive upgrade.

That's right, seasoned players leaving the market is fine, we'll keep earning. It's been obvious for a long time, no matter how you speculate without fundamentals, you'll die. Huh? Upgrading your understanding? Basically, it means you need real skills, no more reckless moves. MEME coins are indeed not as wild as before, but that doesn't mean there are no opportunities. The ones who can make money in this round will ultimately be those who wake up first and regret later. Anyway, I won't be leaving the market, waiting for the next wave. Stories should be plausible, but grounded in reality—that's the new rule, right? What's wrong with妖币? Even speculative tools can make money, as long as you know what you're doing. Last round of easy money, sounds like a warning for everyone not to enter? Wow, a mature market is coming, retail investors' good days are really coming to an end.

It hits quite close to home, but I still want to get in the game and have some fun with memes, anyway, it's just spare change.

Basically, the good days for retail investors are coming to an end. Once institutions arrive, the rules change.
