The Crypto Bull Market Is Here: How to Prepare for the Next Sale
The crypto market is resilient, but it isn’t invincible
Tom Handy2 min read·Just now--
Bitcoin is $81,267.01 as I write this. Everything seems to be going well.
We are seeing a level of stability that didn’t exist in 2017, when Bitcoin (BTC) hit its then all-time high of $19,188 before crashing. We’ve also moved past the dark days of the FTX implosion that took the entire market down with it.
So, you could say, times are good.
But if nearly three decades of investing have taught me anything, it is that the floor can drop at any moment. The crypto market is resilient, but it isn’t invincible. Anything can cause Bitcoin and the market to crash again.
- A major company could be identified as a scam
- Washington could suddenly pivot its crypto policy
- A high-profile hacker could steal billions and depress market sentiment
These aren’t just theories. They are the realities of a maturing but volatile asset class.
