Every time a major crypto crash happens, a lot of people think the industry is finished.
Then, somehow, a completely unexpected narrative comes out of nowhere, creates a new wealth effect, and brings the crypto industry back on track.
2018: ICOs collapse. Everything goes to zero.
2019: A dead market. Betting on small-cap coins, perpetual contracts, 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 destruction. Crypto is declared dead again.
2023: Meme coins start taking over.
2024/2025: Meme coin mania goes full throttle. New chains, new moonshots, new millionaires.
2026: AI agents on Base, Robinhood memes—and now, another quiet spell.
See the pattern in the crypto industry?
Every time we think the industry is over, something we never saw coming shows up and changes everything.
I never worry about whether this industry will die.
The only question is: will you still be here when the next wave hits?
You don’t need to predict what’s coming next. You just need to make it that far.
The next wealth-generating trend might not even have a narrative yet.
Starting over from scratch has always been part of this industry’s DNA.
