According to Michaël van de Poppe (@CryptoMichNL), retail investors typically return to the cryptocurrency market only after Bitcoin surpasses its all-time high (ATH) and altcoins have already experienced significant gains, often tripling in value. He emphasizes that the current market cycle has not fully started yet, suggesting that early entrants could benefit most from upcoming price movements in both Bitcoin and major altcoins. Traders should monitor Bitcoin’s price action closely, as a break above the ATH could trigger renewed retail participation and increased volatility across the crypto market (Source: Michaël van de Poppe on Twitter, May 13, 2025).
