Many people are relenting to trade or invest but assuming the pumps start now, everybody will wants to come back and make money. People can not endure test of time, everybody is taking out their bitcoin investment because they've no strong foundation for bitcoin but those staying and keep trust the project of bitcoin will reap the reward of their patients.
This what in 2011, people miss opportunity to be rich by the act of impatient and remorse of system crashed but we are strong enough come rain come shine we will still wait for good days to come. Bitcoiners for life
That is Bitcoin's next big thing in line. I mean what would you expect when bitcoin goes up? A race where newbies are having FOMO investments while legends who already had bought bitcoin at the discounted prices will be either hodling or pressing sell button as fast as they could. That's what happens when bitcoin is pumping and people reacting to it.
For example, in any type of trading (like commodity based, shares, stocks or crypto for that matter), there are always few type of fixed groups
1. There are FOMO investors
2. Group that is buying constantly for DCA methodology
3. People who are long term institutional investor believer. They will just keep buying irreseptiov of prices
4. Group that would be selling to book profits.
....and that is why there analogy of above cycles.
Does the title match your posts?
I am not sure. Maybe due to the language barrier.
Who said Bitcoin doesn't have a strong foundation? Already millions of people use bitcoin and hold it. Day by day, people are learning more about bitcoin. Whoever knows in-depth details about bitcoin and its features. They are still using it, and it's spreading over the world. Nobody knows when the pumps will start. Everyone just predicts and we do the same as well.
OP is referring to sudden spike in activities that I have mentioned above. More than that they might be thinking about increased transaction / network congetion that happened during the 2017-18 Bitcoin pump. At that time bitcoin confirmation were taking longer than usual. With low fees it was weeks and even month in some cases. That kinda "traffic jam" they might be thinking here.
