Ok, bitcoin under 20k feels like an over-rotation. The underlying fundamentals, adoption, and infrastructure have never been stronger. We saw the irrational top. This feels irrational in the other direction.

The reason why it's important to look at web3 flaws in a down market is because the flaws don't seem as believable in an up market. In an upmarket if you buy a token and tell a friend to join a network, everyone's happy. In a down market, it's very hard for the network to spread.
