I've been repeatedly telling shorts to close early for small gains, close late for bigger gains. The real crypto winter kicks off in 2026. We're not blindly confident just because we bought high and sold low before — everything's based on our own amateur research and analysis. The reason I keep emphasizing the upcoming bear market is because I want everyone to have both confidence and patience. There's an old saying in the bear market: holding a short is even harder than catching a bounce, thanks to massive volatility and 24/7 trading. For most people, it's nearly impossible to go long above 3000.
