On February 10th, renowned Argentine economist and crypto analyst Alex Krüger highlighted the current state of the cryptocurrency market, which he asserts is not exhibiting the buoyancy seen in prior bull cycles. This sentiment follows a hawkish pivot by the Federal Reserve in December and significant market fluctuations attributed to political developments. Krüger draws parallels to market conditions from May 2021 and anticipates a potential upside for Bitcoin after a period of consolidation, emphasizing the validity of the supercycle theory. However, he noted that many altcoins have yet to capitalize consistently on this trend.
Currently, Bitcoin remains in a constrained trading range, which Krüger predicts will eventually break above. He cautions against relying on a broad “universal bull run,” urging investors to adopt a more discerning approach. Highlighting the upcoming unlocks for SOL and the potential for tax-related market pressures, he stresses the importance of strategic investment. Furthermore, Krüger projects that the anticipated new alt season may emerge, albeit shorter in duration, as market sentiment remains heavy. Observers would benefit from positioning themselves during favorable external conditions, particularly as the influence of tariffs wanes.
