Looking ahead to 2026, it feels almost surreal for those of us who've weathered the bear market grind. The landscape has transformed—conditions are dramatically improved. But here's the thing: there's no final victory lap, no neat ending where we cash out and retire. The crypto game doesn't work that way. Success just means you're back in the arena, ready for the next battle. It's a cycle without a finish line. Still, that's infinitely better than getting wiped out. At least we're still standing, still fighting. That counts for something.

Listen, it really is like that... I thought that after the bear market, I could just relax, but what happened? I have to prepare for the next battle. Well, at least I didn't die, so I guess that's a win.

nah, the "cycle without a finish line" framing is giving cope energy tbh. most people don't actually want another round—they want the exit liquidity. sustainable tokenomics don't fix that fundamental incentive misalignment.

Those who survive the bear market are true warriors. By 2026, it feels like we've won but haven't fully won... This is the crypto world—there's never a period.

Ha, it's another cycle... feels like we haven't even caught our breath yet.

ngl, this is the truth of crypto—there's never a real end... surviving a bear market is just a ticket to entry.

ngl, this sense of repetition is so real. surviving the bear market is already half the victory, and the rest? just keep pushing through.
