2025 didn’t feel like a normal crypto “dip.”
It felt like the biggest shakeout Bitcoin has ever seen.
Retail did what retail always does in fear: panic sold.
Institutions did what they always do in opportunity: accumulated quietly.
That’s the real transfer most people missed.
Not coins moving on-chain conviction moving hands.
If you sold the bottom, you weren’t “wrong.” You were forced out.
High rates, forced liquidations, endless bad headlines, and fake rallies that rug pulled hope over and over.
Meanwhile the smart money wasn’t chasing green candles.
They were buying red ones.
Here’s the uncomfortable truth:
Markets don’t reward emotion. They reward positioning.
2025 was the exam.
2026–2027 is the result.
So the question isn’t “Will Bitcoin go higher?”
The question is: will you be holding it when it does?
