It appears institutional are making the same submitting with the memecoin area.

(BOOM! Nailed the touchdown).

12 months in the past, most individuals would have scoffed in case you had have advised them that institutional buyers would quickly be piling into memecoins — however right here we’re.

Actually, Institutional allocations to memecoins have elevated over 300% this 12 months, reaching nearly $300M on the ByBit change in April (up from $63M in Jan).

This isn’t a certain factor — however this may point out we’re in an accelerated cycle.

Sometimes, bull runs final for ~12-18 months after the Bitcoin halving (which came about in April) — with new all-time-highs first being reached ~6 months after the halving.

…guess we’ll simply must hurry up and wait.
