He added that there are several tailwinds that accelerate and stimulate this overturning. These include the theory of a four-year cycle, placing the next one in 2024. Halving is associated with these cycles, which occur in April and May of the following year.

Another potential driver is the victory of major companies Ripple, Coinbaseand a crackdown on the Securities and Exchange Commission. The courts have been complacent in their rulings so far, and an overall win would be a boon for the crypto industry.
