Each cycle of the crypto market is different from the previous one — but the current one has become particularly strange.
Fundamental projects are growing slowly, research is of no interest to anyone, and liquidity is not going where it logically should.
Why is this happening?
## 🔥 1. The market has become 'narrative-first'
Earlier, everything was simple: strong team + working product = growth.
Today, it is the one with the better story who wins, not the one with better technology.
Meme-coins, hype themes, 'new' trends — these are what attract liquidity.

## 📉 2. Fundamental projects are pushed to the back
Developers build ecosystems for years, but the market only reacts to news flashes.
The reason is simple: too many tokens, too little fresh capital.
Fundamentals work — but slowly. And investors want fast.

## 🧲 3. Liquidity sucks in Bitcoin
This is the main cycle of 'bitcoin dominance'.
BTC has taken a huge share of the inflow, and while it keeps the market tense, altcoins are forced to wait.
As long as Bitcoin does not start a stable upward trend — no fundamental will help.

## 🧠 4. The investor must play by new rules
Here’s what works now:
✔ choose not projects, but trends
✔ keep fundamentals only for medium-long term
✔ use acceleration strategies: grids, DCA, rebalancing
✔ monitor liquidity flows — they are more important than whitepapers
The market has changed — and the investor must change with it.
## 💬 Conclusion
Fundamentals are not a 'growth tomorrow' button.
This is a long-term bet.
And in the short term, stories, speed, and attention rule the market.
And the one who understands how the new logic works will not just survive the cycle — they will earn.
