About this video
In this episode, I explain why I bought ICP and why I believe these levels represent a generational buying opportunity for long-term investors.
ICP is trading below $3, even under previous bear market lows, and sentiment is extremely bearish.
I break down why waiting for โeven lower pricesโ often leads to missing the bottom, how fear and capitulation shape market psychology, and why dollar-cost averaging during extreme pessimism has historically paid off in crypto.
I also cover:
Why many investors never buy bottoms and only re-enter during pumps
Comparisons to Bitcoinโs 2023 bear market low
Macro fear narratives vs on-chain reality
ICP fundamentals, burn rate, and real network usage
Upcoming catalysts like Caffeine AI, the Swiss subnet, and Mission 70
Why ICP could become deflationary sooner than most expect
This is not about calling an exact bottom. Itโs about risk management, conviction, and buying undervalued assets when the majority has given up.
As always, this is not financial advice. Do your own research and make decisions that fit your risk tolerance.
