Feels like CT has bear market PTSD and has forgotten how to dream.
Since 2017 ATH market cap of 0.5T, crypto is now a 3.3T industry.
Excluding BTC, it's just 1.3T.
You think this is where we stop growing?
Consider that Tesla alone is a 1T company, Apple 3T and NVIDIA at 3.5T....
....there's so much more upside for crypto and catalysts are lining up.

I believe this bull run consists of two major parts:
First, BTC outperformed due to external to crypto (macro) tailwinds: ETF, world uncertainty, USD debasement etc. Saylor buying, too.
BTC is a the only macro crypto asset.
Now, we're ready for the second stage: our internally built innovation is being adopted by TradFi and the wider world.
Thanks to regulatory clarity, Paypal, Stripe, Visa/Mastercard entering crypto payments, blockchains finally scaling etc.
We're finally reaching escape velocity, liberating us from the same money recycling Ponzi games that create no value to the 'real' world.
Protocols that manage to offer value to that external world, will flourish:
It starts with blockchains themselves: Solana, Tron, Ethereum being used by Tradfi for RWA & stablecoins.
Then TradFi will adopt our smart contract platforms like Aave, Uniswap, and crypto wallets (already happening).
Seeing growth of the industry more investors will want to get exposure to crypto beyond BTC, hopefully buying value adding tokens.
TradFi already got a taste of crypto with BTC, and now they see CRCL successful IPO with more IPOs to come.
As they get more comfortable with crypto and regulatory clarity is here, the TradFi and crypto worlds will get closer and closer.
In which scenario crypto stops growing from this point onwards?
At 1.3T altcoin market cap, the upside potential is HUGE.
