MINA ChartHey, I forgot to post this one the last time, here you have MINA. ...This is one of my top 5 holdings. Mina is building the world’s lightest blockchain... It uses zk-SNARKs to keep its size fixed at 22 KB. This makes it easy for anyone to run a node. The native cryptocurrency is called MINA. MINA is used for transactions and staking rewards. Mina focuses on privacy and scalability. Developers can build lightweight decentralized apps called Snapps. It supports private, secure, and efficient transactions. Mina is designed to be inclusive and decentralized. The goal is to make blockchain accessible for everyone. Kind regards, Max

ALT Season AheadHey, I wanted to share some thoughts on the current market dynamics and what I’m observing in BTC dominance. If you’re invested in ALT coins—especially legacy coins like ETH, XRP, or even RUNE—you might feel like your returns are lagging significantly. The truth is, they are. Let me break down the relationship between ALTs and BTC dominance to give you some context. I use TOTAL3 and BTC dominace charts, check them out. There’s a strong inverse correlation between BTC Dominance and TOTAL3. Historically, when BTC Dominance trends downward, ALTs begin to outperform, experiencing substantial growth relative to BTC. This shift often marks the period when ALT coins start “shining.” Interestingly, during the last cycle, BTC didn’t peak at the height of BTC Dominance. Instead, BTC peaked after ALTs had a massive rally, during a period when BTC Dominance ranged in the 40-50% zone. Currently, BTC Dominance remains in a strong uptrend with no clear signs of slowing. For this reason, before heavily shifting into ALTs or taking profits on BTC longs, I’m waiting for a momentum shift in BTC Dominance. Even a simple trendline break to the downside could signal that capital is flowing out of BTC and into ALTs. This doesn’t necessarily mean BTC will lose value; in fact, it might continue climbing. However, it does indicate a tipping point where ALTs could begin to significantly outpace BTC, offering much greater upside potential. That said, it’s important to consider the growing institutional interest in BTC. Unlike retail investors, institutions are less likely to pivot into ALTs (except for ETH, which benefits from its status as a leading crypto ETF). As a result, BTC Dominance could climb past 70% and may not see a sharp decline even when ALT coin momentum begins.
