‘I was wrong’ about Bitcoin’s 4-year cycle, expert James Lavish admits


Most analysts had ruled out the ‘4-Year Cycle’ for Bitcoin [$BTC], saying the narrative was dead. Among them is James Lavish, a partner at the Bitcoin Opportunity Fund.

James Lavish on Bitcoin’s ‘4-Year Cycle’

James Lavish claimed last year that a liquidity cycle drove the price, rendering Bitcoin halving cycles irrelevant. He admitted he was mistaken when $BTC went on to hit a new high of $126K. Lavish said,

I thought the four-year cycle was dead. I declared it dead last year. I was wrong

Bitcoin started to turn in the 4-year cycle when prices got up over $100K, solidifying the narrative last year. Several Bitcoin OGs sitting on tens of thousands of $BTC coins started selling relentlessly, monetizing all the wealth they accumulated over the years.

From those actions, Lavish said Bitcoin was the only rational exit as the US debt spiraled to new heights, tipping $BTC to make a new high in 2026.

Why liquidity always wins

When money supply increases, the prices of everything go up, including gold, silver, Bitcoin, stocks, bonds, and real estate.

Conversely, Lavish noted that fears about wars, quantum computing, and AI may take the markets down in the short term.

Lavish said this period resembled March and April 2020, into 2021 and 2022, when the market rebounded after quantitative easing. Hence, liquidity always wins.

That could repeat as the Fed pumps billions into the money supply through the buying of long-term treasury bills from banks.

On that note, Lavish noted that the Fed had no other choice but to print more dollars to manage debt that had doubled in 10 years to around $39 trillion. The US needs to service $12 trillion in debts this year.

Hence, they needed to ensure more US dollars hit the system. The authorities intentionally kept the dollar weak to facilitat

Iran has temporarily

reopened the Strait of Hormuz to commercial

shipping following a U.S.-brokered ceasefire

between Israel and Lebanon, sparking cautious

optimism in global markets. However, Tehran

issued a stark warning that the critical waterway

could close again if the United States maintains its

naval blockade of Iranian ports. Foreign Minister

Abbas Araqchi confirmed via social media that all

commercial vessels were permitted to transit the

strait for the duration of the 10-day truce. The

ceasefire came after weeks of conflict that began

when Israel invaded Lebanon following Hezbollah's

military support of Iran. The fighting has claimed

thousands of lives and effectively shut down one

of the world's most vital energy corridors since

late February. President Donald Trump praised the

development, calling it a remarkable moment for

global peace. Yet contradictions quickly emerged.

Trump confirmed the U.S. naval blockade would

remain in place until a comprehensive deal with

Iran is finalized, while Iranian parliament speaker

Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf warned that the strait

would not stay open under those conditions

Iran has temporarily reopened the Strait of Hormu

Hopes for a restoration of normal energy shipping through the Strait of Hormuz collapsed within hours on Saturday after Iran reimposed tight restrictions on the vital maritime corridor, just a day aft

3 Key Reasons RaveDAO (RAVE) Skyrocketed into the Top 25 Cryptocurrencies This Week


RaveDAO’s native token $RAVE has delivered one of the most dramatic rallies in recent crypto memory, surging into the top 25 by market capitalization amid explosive volume and heightened market attention.

The project, which blends electronic dance music culture with blockchain through live events, NFT ticketing, on-chain payments, and community governance, saw its price climb from sub-$1 levels earlier in April 2026 to over $21 in a matter of days.

This is driven by a potent mix of real-world catalysts and technical breakout dynamics.

1. Real-World Event Momentum and Live-to-Earn Utility Fueling Demand

At its core, RaveDAO operates as a Web3 entertainment protocol that turns global raves and music festivals into on-chain experiences.

Recent sold-out events, including activations in Hong Kong and preparations for the Lisbon Dance Summit (April 29–May 2, 2026), have reportedly generated tangible revenue.

A portion of these proceeds fund buybacks and burns, while attendees use $RAVE for tickets, VIP access, staking rewards, and philanthropic donations through initiatives like “Rave for Light.”

This “Live-to-Earn” model creates genuine utility and recurring demand. As the project scales toward dozens of global chapters and hundreds of thousands of annual attendees, event-driven revenue directly supports token value.

On the charts, this fundamental strength manifested as a powerful vertical breakout on the daily timeframe, with a massive green candle pushing price from recent consolidation near $0.20–$0.50 lows to highs above

Following the broader market recovery, sentiment appears to be shifting in the XRP market as signs of renewed bullish momentum start to take hold. A growing bullish momentum implies that buyers are gradually stepping back in. However, a key metric suggests a lingering underlying weakness beneath the surface.

The Real State Of The XRP Market

After a period of uncertainty and subdued price action, XRP is gaining bullish traction, drawing closer to reclaiming the $1.50 mark. Even with the newfound strength of the altcoin, certain indicators show the broader market trend still appears to be weak and bearish, creating a layer of uncertainty.

While it may seem bullish, Teddy, a crypto expert, has drawn attention to the XRP Sharpe Ratio, which is offering a sobering view of the XRP market. The key metric is trending in negative territory, indicating that conditions remain in a post-pain phase. What this means is investors are still recovering from earlier drawdowns despite a period of market stabilization.
