In this episode, author of Bitcoin Supercycle Michael Terpin explains why he believes the four-year Bitcoin cycle is still intact. He outlines his view that Bitcoin operates in "seasons" (spring, summer, fall, winter), with predictable post-halving behavior and diminishing returns. While macro forces and ETF inflows may distort short-term sentiment, Michael argues that human psychology and market structure still drive cyclical corrections. Enjoy!
