Gold prices have just hit a new record high of $5105. Silver prices surged to $110. Platinum prices easily reached an all-time high. And cryptocurrencies? Still teetering on the brink of collapse. If you're not angry seeing this, you're either numb or deceiving yourself. This industry really feels cursed—like you should smash your computer, walk away, and never look back. Yeah, I get it. I know what I'm about to say will anger the old hands—the smug short sellers, the "cycle is over" theorists, and those guys who only show up when prices crash. I don't care. Never give up. Cryptocurrency movements won't be gentle, they won't be gradual, and they won't give you time to readjust your positions. Once it breaks out, it will be violent, parabolic, and merciless to anyone who leaves early. I predict Bitcoin will reach $250,000 this year and hit an all-time high this quarter. Laugh if you want, screenshot it, mock it. This rhetoric is a textbook setup: boredom, skepticism, exhaustion—just before the explosion. “It needs a catalyst.” “Lack of liquidity.” “You bulls are dreaming.” Interestingly, this sounds exactly like silver's trajectory over the past decade—range-bound trading, ignored, ridiculed—until it suddenly surged 200%, silencing the skeptics and adding over $4 trillion to its market capitalization in just a few months. Gold experienced the same process. A decade of consolidation…and then suddenly, a $20 trillion increase in market capitalization within two years. Here's a common misconception: The catalyst isn't the primary factor; price is. When cryptocurrencies finally explode, all sorts of narratives will naturally emerge. Analysts will pretend they have everything under control. The media will pretend they predicted it all along. But that's not the case. It all begins slowly. Then it explodes suddenly. By the time the headlines turn positive, it's too late to enter the market. Stay alert. Stay patient. Otherwise, you'll miss another opportunity.
