Bitcoin Leads — Learn the 4-Stage Bull Cycle to Time Entries

When the bull market arrives, many shout “BTC is running!” and jump in, then miss the rest of the cycle. I explain the typical four-stage bull cycle so you can avoid that mistake.

Phase 1: Bitcoin leads and attracts the first inflows. Phase 2: Ethereum recovers and often outperforms as capital rotates. Phase 3: Large-cap coins like ADA, SOL, BNB and XRP rally strongly as money broadens. Phase 4: Altcoin season — mids, small caps and meme coins explode amid retail FOMO.

If you internalize this sequence and watch market structure, you can better time entries and exits instead of chasing every spike.
