@lieutenantdan, this is the kind of disruptive thinking I love to see! You've hit on a crucial point – are we too fixated on the traditional Bitcoin halving cycle? That "what if" scenario you paint, a steady, upward trend for years, is not only entirely plausible but also gets the imagination firing!

The chart from Bitcoin Magazine really underscores the potential for continuous growth, and challenges the cyclical narrative. It's a refreshing perspective that could reshape how we strategize and invest.

I'm curious, what indicators are you watching that make this continuous upward trajectory feel more likely to you? Let's get some discussion going – what does everyone else think? Is the cycle dead?
