Bitcoin Market Cycles

Crypto markets are entirely dependent on Bitcoin and that is good news because we can reasonably predict Bitcoin market cycles.


This is the basis of all our trading decisions. Understanding where we are in the market cycle is super important.

This video introduces the Market Cycles. In subsequent videos, we will see how to use this information for trading altcoins.

The Spiritual Era

About 30,000 years ago, one man challenged another to a fight over a petty dispute. Challenger had a herculean body, probably 8 feet in height. The one who was challenged looked meek. The entire village gathered with the expectation to see how this herculean man would kill this meek.

That day, the ‘meek’ did something no one expected. He built a slingshot, never let the challenger come close, and actually ended up killing him.

This is how I imagine a village full of people who saw the power of intellect over the physical body.

The world was never the same. Intellect > Physical strength forever.

Fast forward to the 21st century. The world is being ruled by the smartest.

But we’re a global village watching the smartest fail at creating a stable, sustainable world. Billionaires and smart folks are powerful, but they ‘need’ to feed this machine.

My theory (quickly turning into belief) is that the spiritual will invent a slingshot equivalent that will kill the notion that intellect is to be worshipped.

And we have the internet as a global stage where villagers will see Spirit > Intellect forever.

I’m still exploring this line of thinking. Do DM me if you wish to discuss/explore.

Some derivative thoughts:

The violence of the mind

From the physical era to the intellectual era, we reduced the violence on the physical body significantly. But we invented another kind of violence to dominate and subjugate other human beings. The violence of the mind. Be it by yelling on TV, sucking our attention with apps, taking over our identity, data, and making us numb by feeding us mindless dark stories, and making people run like donkeys for fake Fiat money.

This violence will. be wiped out in the spiritual era.

Mental six-pack

We realized that intellect cannot flourish until we take care of our bodies. Quantified self and the entire fitness movement is late but taking over.

In the spiritual era, we will realize, our spirit cannot flourish without both our bodies and mind being strong. So we will not just have six-pack Chamath’s, but we will have the mental equivalent of that.

Addiction to permanence

We ask too much from life. Little moments, relationships, joys, and material things – we want all of it permanently. So much that we ignore that is beyond our control.

We’re programmed to think that life is an exercise in gathering things, people, and the latest fad – experiences. None of us have the capacity to hoard every good thing that we encounter. With souvenirs, pictures, closed relationships, we have become addicted to permanence when we know life doesn’t operate that way.

This addiction causes problems that we cannot fathom.

It is hard to give up this addiction. But there has to be a start.

How can I help you?

I started with nothing. Literally a laptop and a spare room at my grandfather’s place.

I quickly discovered that immense forward energy is created when we discover a synergy with the mind: ‘how can I help?’ in any situation. It creates in-roads that may not be that focussed but they lead to previously undiscovered paths that surprise people.

Sometimes I gave free advice to my clients, solved some random bug, gave extra thought for their design, etc. This only made them look at me as a solution-provider instead of a salesman. Not that I do this now. I know what path I am on. But even now, I try and make everyone around me’s life a little better.

This costs nothing, and while many people forget, those who do remember end up paying it back or forward. In any case, it is a virtuous cycle for the world.

That is exactly why everyone needs to work towards their cause. That brings about this attitude: How can I help?

I will tell you when you are wrong

You may be my partner/boss/employee, but I will respectfully tell you when you are wrong.

When I do this, my intent will be to further our mutual interests. Ideally, I would expect us to have a discussion and reach some consensus. If not, we will disagree respectfully (assuming both of us present facts / theories to back our stand).

I will not be a yes man. If you want that, find someone else please.
