Where Did Altcoin Season Go?Ah, Altcoin Season —that magical time when every random token is supposed to skyrocket, turning you from an average investor into a crypto mogul overnight. At least, that’s what the hype says.
Yet, despite endless Twitter (sorry, X) posts and YouTube thumbnails screaming, "It's coming! Any day now!", it still hasn't arrived.
So, let’s cut through the noise and ask the real question: Why didn’t Altcoin Season happen?
________________________________________
1. Everyone Was Expecting It—But Someone Was Selling
There’s an unwritten rule in financial markets: When everyone expects something to happen, it probably won’t.
Every self-proclaimed crypto guru has been yelling: "Altseason is here! 100x! To the moon!"
Meanwhile, someone was selling.
Instead of an explosive rally, we got some pumps followed by brutal sell-offs. Why? Because while retail traders were waiting for liftoff, big players were cashing out quietly. Someone always has to be the exit liquidity.
________________________________________
2. The Market Is Not the Same as 5 Years Ago
Just because Altcoin Season happened in 2017 or 2020 doesn't mean it will play out the same way again.
The crypto market has changed dramatically:
• No more reckless retail FOMO throwing money at anything with a flashy logo.
• Institutions have entered the space—but they don’t care about low-cap moonshots.
• Liquidity is more concentrated—Bitcoin and a handful of top coins dominate the inflows.
Altcoin Season thrived when everyday investors piled into random projects without thinking. But after multiple crashes and rug pulls, that blind optimism has vanished.
________________________________________
3. Projects Make Promises, But Don’t Deliver (Shocking, Right?)
Let’s be honest: Who makes the most money in crypto projects? Right—the developers.
Every market cycle, we get new buzzwords: DeFi revolutions, AI-blockchain fusion, metaverse takeovers… but what actually happens?
• Fancy whitepapers, vague roadmaps—but great marketing.
• Tokenomics built to enrich insiders, not retail investors.
• Initial hype, then a slow decline—until the next trendy project appears.
At this point, we all know only a tiny fraction of altcoins provide real innovation. Without real progress, there’s no fuel for a true Altcoin Season.
________________________________________
So… Is Altcoin Season Dead?
Not necessarily. But it’s no longer a guaranteed, predictable event. The expectations have changed.
• Without new retail money flooding in, who’s pumping these coins?
• With Bitcoin dominance high, who’s paying attention to altcoins?
• If most new projects exist to enrich devs, why would an altseason even happen?
Instead of waiting for a mythical altcoin boom, maybe the smarter move is to ask yourself:
Am I investing in a solid project, or am I just hoping to be "the lucky one" who catches the next 100x?
Either way, good luck with your HODLing—and with those "If I had just invested $100 at that price..." screenshots.

Is $GERN a stock for "Strong Holders"?Or is it just another stock whose value will be wiped out in the next few quarters, and the company will simply lose its listing on the Nasdaq?
Investors are likely to get an answer to this question today, before the market opens, when NASDAQ:GERN reports its quarterly earnings.
The company has an approved drug and has already begun commercialization, with a promising start.
Last quarter, the company generated $28 million in revenue, and this quarter, revenue is expected to reach $61.8 million.
The company has already achieved positive gross margins, and I expect them to improve significantly from the current 27% in the last quarter.
Operating expenses are close to $30 million per quarter, so we can expect a quick path to operating profitability.
Invested capital is around $135 million, which means that with an operating profit of $10 million per quarter, we could see interesting returns on invested capital.
The company is led by John A. Scarlett, M.D., who previously worked at NASDAQ:CTMX for six years, during which the company lost about 90% of its value.
There is some positive news regarding European approval: "The Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use of the European Medicines Agency has issued a positive opinion." A decision is expected in the coming months, if not days, which should serve as a strong catalyst for the stock price.
The market valuation has dropped to $1.4 billion, despite having an FDA-approved drug in the U.S.
Cash reserves will be important as they indicate how much time the company has to develop without diluting its capital. In the last report, cash and short-term investments totaled $339 million, and on November 7, the company announced securing $250 million in funding, with the potential to increase it to $375 million.
As a result, the company has $589 million in cash reserves minus operating cash flow. How much will remain in the coffers?
The company should have enough cash for more than 12 months of successful operations, operational efficiency is improving, we are awaiting European approval, and only the quality of management raises doubts.
But do these doubts really hold weight given the current trajectory?
There are only a few hours left until the earnings report is released. Let's see what awaits us.

Profiting From Strength

Since DOGE is pretty hot at the moment... It's also pretty in the middle of a longer range of price action range with no real reward and a lot of risk to be found at this price point.
You can look at it technical, you can say it's due to politics (like that has always been a solid in the past...), you can blame it on the fomo and the news...
You always have a choice when to act and what to do when you act. Just be smart about it ;-)

Lamb Weston Holdings | LW | Long at $51.32Lamb Weston Holdings NYSE:LW , the potato / French fry king, has gone through a tremendous downturn since 2023. Yet, earnings are forecast to grow 22% per year into 2027. Debt is quite high at 2.5x and this company, like many others, will significantly benefit from lower interest rates in the future. If the US experiences another way of inflation, Lamb Weston Holdings could be on the beneficiary side of things.
From a technical analysis perspective, the price has entered my "crash" simple moving average zone. Typically, this area signals a bottom, but it's not guaranteed. I foresee the daily price gap near $50 being closed in the short-term before a true move up. A dip to $47-$48 is not out of the question. Regardless of trying to predict bottoms, at $51.32, NYSE:LW is in a personal buy zone.
Targets:
$62.00

HAL NV: Unlocking Hidden Value in a Discounted InvestmentCurrent Price: Approximately €117.40 per share
Target Price: €150 per share
HAL NV (traded via HAL Trust) has long been recognized as a unique investment vehicle, thanks to its diversified portfolio of high-quality assets. Despite a current trading level around €117.40, a closer look at the underlying holdings and operational performance reveals a significant value gap—one that suggests the stock should be priced nearer to €150.
Key Holdings and Their Strengths
Boskalis – A Fully Owned Flagship
• 100% Ownership: HAL NV owns Boskalis outright, giving it full exposure to the maritime and offshore construction market.
• Robust Order Books: Boskalis benefits from a full order book, which not only secures future revenues but also demonstrates strong market positioning.
• Operational Efficiency: With steady execution in its core business, Boskalis adds both resilience and growth potential to HAL’s overall portfolio.
SBM Offshore – Secure Order Pipeline
• Substantial Stake (22.9%): While not fully owned, SBM Offshore represents a key component in HAL’s strategy.
• Solid Order Books: Like Boskalis, SBM Offshore’s strong order backlog underscores its ability to generate future cash flow.
• Strategic Exposure: The offshore energy market, driven by both traditional and renewable energy projects, positions SBM Offshore for long-term growth.
Vopak – Consistent Performer with Upward Trends
• Major Stake (51.4%): HAL’s significant interest in Vopak captures exposure to the global tank storage and logistics sector.
• Earnings Fluctuation, But Upward Trend: Although Vopak’s earnings can fluctuate year over year, the overall trend has been strongly positive, reinforcing its role as a reliable income generator.
Additional Growth Catalysts
• Coolblue (56.4%) & TKH Group (5.2%): These holdings further diversify HAL’s portfolio, offering exposure to high-growth sectors such as retail technology and industrial services.
The Valuation Gap: NAV vs. Market Price
One of the most compelling aspects of HAL NV is the notable discrepancy between its Net Asset Value (NAV) and its market capitalization:
NAV Insight: Recent reports and annual filings suggest that the NAV per share of HAL’s underlying assets is approximately €165.95.
Market Discount: Trading at around €117.40, HAL NV is effectively offered at a significant discount. This “hidden value” implies that the market has yet to fully recognize the aggregate worth of its high-quality investments.
Equity vs. Market Cap: With the equity value of its portfolio (including fully consolidated companies like Boskalis and the robust valuations from quoted holdings such as Vopak and SBM Offshore) substantially higher than the current market cap, the potential for upward re-rating is evident.
Hal NV is poised for robust long‐term growth, with annual rates expected to reach around 15%. This optimism is driven by strong demand for the services of Boskalis and SBM Offshore, both of which continue to benefit from substantial order books. Additionally, the accelerated growth of Coolblue and the steady, consistent performance of Vopak—bolstered by emerging opportunities in India—further enhance the outlook. Coupled with a conservative balance sheet that ensures a low cost of capital, these factors collectively support the company’s promising growth trajectory.
Catalysts for Price Convergence
Several factors support the rationale for a price target of €150:
Strong Order Books: Both Boskalis and SBM Offshore are backed by extensive order books, which not only secure future revenue streams but also reduce operational risks.
Consistent Growth Trends: Vopak, despite some earnings volatility, has demonstrated a significant long-term upward trend in earnings—enhancing the overall stability of HAL’s portfolio.
Undervalued Underlying Assets: The current market price does not fully reflect the NAV derived from HAL’s diverse investments. As market sentiment improves and the intrinsic value becomes more widely recognized, a re-rating toward the NAV is likely.
Favorable Valuation Metrics: HAL NV’s relatively low Price/Earnings ratio compared to its growth prospects and asset quality makes it an attractive buy for value-oriented investors.
Conclusion
HAL NV represents an intriguing investment opportunity—a trust whose market price currently undervalues a robust portfolio of operationally strong and strategically significant companies. With full control over Boskalis and solid stakes in SBM Offshore and Vopak, combined with additional growth prospects from Coolblue and TKH Group, the underlying equity far exceeds the current market valuation. In essence, if the market were to recognize the full value of these assets, a price target of €150 per share appears not only justified but highly attainable.
Investors looking for a value play in the industrial and investment holding space should keep a close eye on HAL NV, as the convergence of market price to NAV could deliver significant upside potential.
Note: The analysis above is based on current market data (price ≈ €117.40) and recent annual reports, and reflects the author’s view on the intrinsic value of HAL NV. Investors should perform their own due diligence before making any investment decisions.
BTC | NEWS | Abu Dhabi Invests $436.9M in ETFAbu Dhabi's sovereign wealth fund, Mubadala Investment Company, has made a significant investment in Bitcoin by purchasing $436.9 million in shares of the iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT).
This MUST be a clear indicator that they are bullish on BTC, at least for the longer term.
Investment firms most commonly invest with the eye on the longer term, and are usually unphased by short term swings like daily or even weekly corrections. This is, if anything, extremely bullish for BTC in the longer term (1 year and possibly beyond).
In similar news; the potential of the SEC approving XRP ETF is causing optimism for XRP.
XRP has recently made great progress in terms of fundamentals, more on that HERE:

PARAMOUNT - EPS Beat 12 out of 17 Q's can we extract potential?Hi guys we are going to take a look into Paramount and see if we can extract some potential from this stock!
Fundamentals&Technicals below -
As of February 15, 2025, Paramount Global's Class B stock (ticker: PARA) is trading at $11.30 per share, reflecting a 4.5% increase from the previous close. This marks the fourth consecutive day of gains, though the stock remains 22.3% below its 52-week high of $14.54 achieved on May 3, 2024.
In the third quarter of 2024, Paramount reported net income of $1 million, a significant decline from $295 million in the same period the previous year. Earnings per share reached breakeven, missing analyst expectations of 24 cents. Total revenue decreased to $6.731 billion from $7.133 billion, influenced by a 6% drop in TV media revenue and a 34% decline in filmed entertainment revenue.Despite these challenges, the company's streaming segment showed resilience. Paramount+ added 3.5 million subscribers in the third quarter, bringing the total to 72 million. The streaming service reported an adjusted operating income of $49 million, defying analysts' predictions of a $160.1 million loss.
In 2024, Paramount undertook significant restructuring efforts, including a $6 billion write-down of its cable-TV business and the elimination of approximately 2,000 jobs, representing about 15% of its U.S. workforce. These measures aim to achieve $500 million in cost savings and address challenges in the traditional TV sector.
Looking ahead, Paramount is set to merge with Skydance Media, with the merger expected to complete in early 2025. This strategic move is anticipated to inject significant capital into Paramount, aiding in debt reduction and enabling investments in new content and technologies.
Entry: on market open
Target: 17.00 just below the weak resistance.
SL: 7.50
P.S. We are sitting on a very key support area which has been overviewd long term which is around the 9.00 and 11.00 area, so this gives us additional confidence in the stock increasing.Hopefully the positive earnings report will have another beat in EPS, and would yield great value.

Overvalued insider tradeRelative valuation appears significantly inflated compared to peers. A more justifiable valuation would be in the vicinity of 90, with a target of 95 anticipated by next month.

STOCKS | AI | Amazon, Meta & MSFTPeople who are saying that AI is just a bubble are missing the big picture. Huge tech companies are pouring serious money into it, which shows they believe AI is here to stay.
We're talking massive investments – like over $320 billion in AI infrastructure by 2025, according to the Financial Times. Amazon is planning over $100 billion in capital expenditures in 2025, mainly focused on AI infrastructure. This could be huge not only for NASDAQ:AMZN as a whole but also for the AI industry.
Alphabet is also throwing in around $75 billion this year to boost its AI capabilities. These kinds of investments from the top players make it clear: they know you have to spend big to win in the AI game and clearly there is a race going on, especially after the release of DeepSeekAI. American companies don't want to be left behind, and it's likely that they will pour money into integrating AI to improve their business operation - with the ultimate aim to improve profit - which is great for stock prices. How they make money from AI might change over time, but the overall direction is obvious – AI is changing everything and driving innovation.
According to Statista, the global AI market is predicted to reach around $826 billion by 2030. That kind of growth tells you AI is going to be a major force in just about every industry. And therefore I believe that all the companies making major investment in AI will also see exponential growth over the next 5 years - meaning it may be a longer term game play.

Perfect Time to Long PYTH – Targeting $0.50-$0.55, Then $1-$1.15PYTH is showing a strong setup for a long position. A move to the $0.50-$0.55 range looks likely, with the next key resistance at $1-$1.15 if market momentum mirrors February-March 2024.
Fundamentally, Pyth Network has gained dominance due to Solana's high-speed, low-cost infrastructure, which aligns perfectly with Pyth's real-time, on-demand price feeds. With the meme coin frenzy and massive trading activity on Solana, Pyth has become the go-to oracle for fast and reliable data.
Unlike Chainlink, which relies on slower, aggregated updates, Pyth leverages direct data from multiple premium providers (like CBOE and Binance) and delivers ultra-low-latency price feeds, which makes it ideal for high-frequency trading and DeFi protocols.
Additionally, Pyth rapidly expanded its price feeds across multiple assets and chains, outpacing Chainlink in both speed and adoption, while maintaining gas efficiency and cross-chain compatibility.

Epic Cash = Satoshi's vision for Peer-to-Peer Digital CashEPIC CASH is what Satoshi Nakamoto would build today, using modern technology — and the valuable insights learned during Bitcoin’s (and other altcoins’) journey over the past 15 years.
EPIC offers a robust and decentralized financial system that will exist for future generations, immune from geopolitical turmoil and banking crises.
With a limit of just 21 million coins, EPIC follows 100% of Satoshi’s Bitcoin DNA scarcity formula. It has ALL the needed features of a decentralized, current, P2P, digital currency.
Below are just some of the unique feature that make EPIC CASH superior digital cash:
Scarcity
with a fixed supply of only 21 million coins: EPIC maintains Bitcoin’s identical hard cap of 21 million coins — With 84% of the supply already in circulation, its ownership trajectory aligns with BTC’s, to reach 20.3 million coins by 2028.
Mineable by Anyone
EPIC employs a multi-algorithm mining system that allows ordinary computers to mine it with their laptops or desktops using CPU and GPU, making it accessible to over 6.4 billion devices worldwide, allowing for broad usage and continued decentralization. In contrast, BTC can only be mined on ASICs, which are large cumbersome industrial computers that need frequent replacement and have obvious onerous environmental repercussions.
Privacy and Fungibility
EPIC leverages Mimblewimble blockchain compression to ensure that ALL transactions are commercially private, requiring no extra steps. This ensures that EPIC is fully fungible—and every coin is indistinguishable from another, so there are no "tainted coins,” which is an Achilles’ heel of BTC. Absolute privacy is achieved via Mimblewimble technology as no wallet addresses and no transaction amounts are ever stored on the blockchain.

MicroStrategy’s Premium Is Fading – Time to Brace for a Drop?The strong optimism following Trump’s election in November fueled a Bitcoin rally, which in turn led to a massive surge in MicroStrategy’s ( NASDAQ:MSTR ) stock.
However, after reaching an all-time high near $550, MSTR experienced a sharp decline. Interestingly, despite Bitcoin hovering around $100K and even attempting a new ATH recently, this momentum hasn’t been reflected in MSTR’s stock price.
From a technical perspective, the price has broken below its ascending trendline and is now consolidating between $320 and $360.
Given the unjustified premium (at least in my opinion), I expect further downside for the stock.
Additionally, if Bitcoin fails to hold the key $90K confluence support, MSTR could see a sharp plunge below $200.

Beyond BTC - Why Coinbase (COIN) is a Long-Term Buy?As a trader, I'm always watching the markets, but building long-term wealth is also key. That's why I'm digging into assets like Coinbase (COIN) . While my day job is trading, Coinbase has definitely caught my eye as something portfolio-worthy for the long haul. We might have missed the IPO buzz back in 2021, but looking at where Coinbase is headed, I think we're still early in a massive growth story.
Don't let short-term crypto ups and downs distract you. Coinbase is playing a long game, and here's why it's a smart long-term investment -
CEO Brian Armstrong's Big Vision (and Big Numbers):
Already a Financial Giant: Think of Coinbase as a bank or brokerage – it's already HUGE. It's as big as the 21st largest US bank by assets ($0.42 trillion!) or the 8th largest brokerage. This size matters.
Going Global: Coinbase isn't just focused on the US. They're expanding worldwide to grab new users and markets.
Becoming Your All-in-One Financial Hub: Forget old-school banks. Coinbase wants to be your single crypto-powered financial account for everything – payments, investing, and more. This is where finance is heading.
Token Powerhouse: Crypto is about more than just Bitcoin. Coinbase wants to list every token, becoming the go-to place for the entire crypto universe.
Blending Crypto Worlds: Coinbase is smart – they're linking up with new decentralized crypto systems (DeFi) to give you the best of both worlds, easy to use but with more options.
Working with Regulators: Coinbase is playing it smart, working with governments to make crypto safe and trusted for everyone long-term.
Massive Crypto Payments: People are using crypto to pay – big time. $30 TRILLION in stablecoin payments happened last year alone. Coinbase is ready to cash in on this payment revolution.
Why This Matters for Long-Term Investors:
Crypto is Exploding: Everyone knows crypto is going to get bigger. Coinbase is in the perfect spot to ride this massive wave.
Big Money is Coming: Big institutions like banks are starting to invest in crypto. Coinbase is built for them – safe, secure, and ready for big players.
Coinbase is the Brand You Trust: Coinbase is the big name in crypto. People know and trust them, which is gold in a new market.
Bottom Line: Coinbase isn't just a trend; it's building the future of finance. Yes, crypto is bumpy, but for the long haul, Coinbase is positioned to be a winner.
Now let's get technical and have a look at what the charts are saying -
Uptrend is Clear: Forget short-term noise – this chart shows Coinbase has been on a solid climb since late 2023. There's a strong bullish structural break which indicates the trend has shifted up after a short bearish run.
$350 is the Line in the Sand: Think of $350 as the ceiling right now. The price hit it, and we saw some selling. Gotta break above $350 to really see the bulls charging again.
$225-$250 is the Safety Net: On the flip side, $225-$250 is like solid ground. As long as we stay above that, the bull run is still in play.
Just Taking a Breather: Right now, the chart says "consolidation." Think of it as Coinbase catching its breath after a big run. This pause can be a good thing – building up energy for the next push up.
RSI is Neutral for Now: The RSI thing is the 50% level. Not screaming "buy" or "sell," just saying "wait and see." After showing us bearish divergence we are likely to see oversold conditions within the current range - if that does happen it would be a good time to strike.
What to Watch For (Trader Style):
Breakout Above $350 = Green Light: If COIN blasts through $350 with some volume, that's the signal to jump in long. Think higher targets.
Stuck Between $250 and $350 = Range Trade Time: If it stays in this range, you can play the range – buy low, sell high within the range. But be ready for a break either way.
Drop Below $250 = Caution Flag: If we crack below $250, that's a warning sign. Might be time to get a bit more defensive.
Final Notes:
Coinbase looks good long-term, but we're in a "show me" moment right now. Watch those key levels – $350 and $250. Patience is key, but the chart is set up for a potential bullish move if we get the right trigger. If you're looking to invest for the long-haul, now would be a good time to add some shares to your portfolio.

• U.S. Space Force Contracts (Data analytics services for national security intelligence, awarded in Jan 2025).
• Navy Research Contract for Gen-3 Satellites (AI-driven satellite intelligence for military operations).
• National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) Contract Extension (BlackSky continues to deliver critical intelligence under a multi-year agreement).
Government reliance on real-time geospatial intelligence is growing rapidly, and BKSY is securing multi-year contracts to provide strategic intelligence services, ensuring long-term revenue stability.
3. Strategic Partnership with Palantir (PLTR)
• Integrated into Palantir’s AI-Powered Defense Tech Stack (since 2021).
• Automated real-time data delivery to Palantir customers (reducing manual processing time from hours to minutes).
• Synergy between AI-driven analytics (PLTR) & BlackSky’s satellite network creates a powerful data pipeline for national security clients.
With Palantir rapidly expanding its AI and defense intelligence business, BlackSky stands to benefit from deepening collaborations and contract expansions.
4. Growing Demand for Satellite Intelligence
• Russia-Ukraine War & Global Tensions → Increased government reliance on real-time battlefield intelligence.
• Maritime Security & Illegal Activity Monitoring → Demand for shipping lane surveillance & military monitoring.
• Climate Change & Disaster Response → Increased use of satellite data for natural disasters, deforestation, and infrastructure planning.
BlackSky’s services align perfectly with global security, climate monitoring, and defense needs, ensuring sustained long-term demand.
5. Strong Financial Momentum & Low Float Stock
• Q/Q revenue growth positive (outperforming competitors in contract wins).
• 8:1 Reverse Split (Oct 2024) → Reduced dilution, improving stock attractiveness.
• Low float → BKSY could see sharp price movements on contract news.
• 2026 Warrants (Sept 2026, $92 strike) trading at $0.16 → A speculative but high-upside leveraged play.
With increasing revenue, strong contract execution, and a lean cost structure, BKSY is heading toward potential profitability in the coming years.
6. Technical Analysis & Price Potential
• Breakout Potential: Currently trading at a low market cap ($360M) despite securing hundreds of millions in government contracts.
• Catalyst-Driven Growth: Major contract announcements could trigger a parabolic price move, as seen with similar low-float defense sector stocks.
• Key Resistance Levels: $20 (psychological level) → $32 (pre-reverse split equivalent).
