Institutional delta hedging strategies will reliably suppress strong Bitcoin rallies, making 'moonshots' less likely from 2025 onwards.
"Every time Bitcoin tries to moon, there's a wall of institutional selling that reliably shoots it down."
Pending
Bitcoin would need to go significantly higher than 2025 levels to overcome institutional delta hedging pressure and potentially trigger an altcoin season, which is a difficult prospect for 2026 and beyond.
"But this requires BTC to go significantly higher than current levels. Enough to overcome the delta hedging pressured from all of those institutions selling covered calls. Not impossible, but you know that's a big ask."
Pending
The traditional 4-year crypto market cycle is permanently broken starting from 2025 onwards.
"According to Wintermute, this was the year the 4-year cycle broke permanently."
Pending
The new crypto market structure, characterized by capital barriers and concentrated liquidity, is a permanent change from 2025 onwards.
"And this looks like a permanent change. So, if you want to survive in the new crypto market, you may want to reconsider everything you thought you knew about how it's supposed to work."
Pending
The crypto market will punish wild volatility, suppressing altcoin seasons and explosive moves, instead rewarding patience and capital efficiency from 2025 onwards.
"The explosive moves that defined previous cycles are being suffocated by sophisticated strategies designed to extract steady income rather than chase moonshots. The market now rewards patience, capital efficiency, and professional execution. And it actually punishes the kind of wild volatility that used to create altcoin seasons."
Pending
Expectations of post-halving euphoria, altcoin rotations, and a rising tide lifting all boats are outdated for the crypto market from 2025 onwards.
"The predictable post having euphoria, the alt season rotation, the rising tide lifting all boats. Well, these are outdated expectations that no longer fit the structure of the crypto market."
Pending
Future crypto market performance depends on whether liquidity can spread beyond major cryptocurrencies like BTC and ETH from 2026 onwards.
"What comes next depends on whether liquidity can actually spread beyond the handful of majors that absorbed everything in 2025."
Pending
Approval of altcoin ETFs could open floodgates for mandate-bound capital to flow into altcoins beyond BTC and ETH, potentially in 2026 or later.
"If they do that, the floodgates open. There are already filings for a large number of altcoin ETFs sitting with regulators. If approved, mandate bound capital gets new destinations beyond just BTC and ETH."
Pending
It is unlikely that mindshare will return to crypto from other tech sectors (like AI) in 2026 and beyond, as it requires both tech stocks to become boring and crypto to develop a compelling new narrative simultaneously.
"Winter mute marks this as the least likely scenario, and it's not hard to see why. It requires both conditions simultaneously. Stocks get boring and crypto developing a narrative compelling enough to win back attention."
Pending
The 'easy money' era of crypto is over, and success in 2026 will require letting go of old assumptions and adapting to the new market structure.
"Crypto's easy money era is apparently history. And if you want to succeed in 2026, well, you may need to let go of some old assumptions and really take a fresh look at the market as it exists now."
