The chart visually reinforces the post's message that buying opportunities near cycle lows tend to last months rather than days, as Bitcoin's price traded sideways around the realized price for extended stretches rather than forming a sharp "V-bottom" that most market participants wait for. > > "The Idea of Catching the Absolute Bottom is Wrong “The window of opportunity lasts longer than most people expect. Yet this is precisely when the majority leave the market.” – By @DanCoinInvestor" --- ## Contributing Accounts - `@maticrobots` (https://x.com/maticrobots)
