Crypto Market Realities: Why 2021 Won't Repeat and Opportunities Still Exist

In the realm of cryptocurrency, the belief that no one will return to the 2021 levels because it is now 2025 persists. Recently, content creation has been particularly engaging. While monitoring the Iran-Israel-USA-Maghazi situation, I came across a social media post titled "everything is lost" by a certain influencer. Unlike the widespread doomsayers, this individual presents some solid arguments and reasonable thoughts that caught my attention. I want to restore balance to yesterday's general discussion (thanks for the likes!) and analyze this influencer's post from my perspective, as outlined in the images above. First, I disagree with those attacking the author of the post. Being a scammer doesn't mean one is always wrong; even the worst individuals can sometimes be insightful, especially as their profession requires them to be highly perceptive of deception. Second, I do not agree with the 'exit cryptocurrency' narrative. Since 2021, there have been many dips and opportunities for profit, including projects like Arbitrum, Fantom, TON Season, BASE Season, and others. Even the so-called "BER" had opportunities, despite current criticisms (shoutout to my colleague BM). Therefore, the market offers opportunities, but only if you are intelligent and not just involved in scams for quick money. Third, I personally experienced what I called the "Trap of 2021". Throughout 2022, I believed that 2021 would happen again, and we would earn a lot. That belief kept me from leaving. I genuinely thought that it was possible to replicate 2021's gains. In 2021, even poor allocations yielded incredible returns—invest $500 and earn $1500–$2000 monthly, akin to a salary. I lost those easily gained profits, and in 2022, I was surviving on just my salary, waiting for a bull run. Fourth, history doesn't repeat but rhymes. The narrative that 2021 was a bull run needs to stop; there was plenty of scam activity then as well, and many lost money. Few preserved their deposits from those times. 2021 became a kind of holy grail, an idealized distant land that never actually existed. Forget about it. More money was available back then, but the probability to make and keep it was not guaranteed—if you came from poverty and hit big, you likely lost it quickly. We’ve been around it all before. Finally, regarding the mentioned potential rate cuts (not explicitly discussed by the influencer but implied), if rates decrease, and money flows heavily, the big question is whether they will go back into crypto. I have decided to stop waiting; I act within my current circumstances. There will be no super bullish surge where all coins grow; there will be no giant altseason with every token rising. However, opportunities will always be available for those who seek them—especially for those driven or skilled, or even just motivated. Look at the market differently, not as a casino where everyone is given money, but as a young space where you can realize your talents. If you're an idiot who doesn't want to learn or do anything, then you're unlikely to succeed in any field.
