“Where are we in the four-year cycle? I break it down by seasons each year being a different season (…) Bitcoin usually advances in the spring and summer and from time to time Bitcoin’s dominance wanes and the ALT season begins in a couple of months (…) This Just an annual indication of when we move into next fall or the fall cycle which is usually the most explosive at the beginning of next year.
Pal also discussed the implications of these cycles for the cryptocurrency market, noting that current conditions are setting the stage for an “explosive” period in the next cycle. He stressed that the continuation of these cycles depends on governments continuing to pump and withdraw liquidity, a dynamic he refers to as “the code of everything.”
It is worth noting that Pal addressed the concept of a potential “supercycle” for Bitcoin and cryptocurrency markets, positing that such an occurrence is unlikely unless there is a fundamental change in the underlying economic structures, especially with regard to global debt and demographics. “I don’t see how that’s going to happen, unless they break the liquidity cycle of everything,” Pal commented.
At press time, DOGE was trading at $0.39447.
