The 71st installment of the cycle model keeps the total crypto market cap tagged below the logarithmic regression trend line, framing the rest of the year as sluggish before a possible push back to…
The dip and bounce look textbook midterm-year: a soft jobs print let the cycle-low thesis breathe, but the four-year-cycle crew still sees one more weak leg into late Q3 before any durable reversal.
