Behind the price is human nature, and the greed of human nature leads to the accumulation of high-risk leverage, followed by a domino effect of collapse. The alternation of bulls and bears is essentially a reflection of human nature. "Every time at the peak of a bull market, someone shouts 'this time is different,' but the cycle of greed → leverage → black swan → panic selling has never been broken. The 'super cycle dream' of 2022 ultimately turned into the most brutal bear market, making countless people deeply realize: cycles always exist, only their length and depth change due to new variables."

At the beginning of 2022, especially after the peak of the bull market at the end of 2021, many people in the cryptocurrency circle (including institutional investors, analysts, and KOLs) believed that this round would not enter a traditional bear market, but would enter a "supercycle", and prices would continue to rise or at least not plummet by 80%-90%. Their core logic is "this time is different", and here are some of the most mainstream bases at the time (these views were widely disseminated on platforms such as Twitter, Reddit, CoinDesk, and Moneyweb in 2021-early 2022): 1. Institutional adoption of explosive growth, demand will never dry up In 2021, companies such as MicroStrategy, Tesla, and Square hoarded Bitcoin on a large scale, and institutional funds continued to flow in through Grayscale and futures ETFs. People think that institutions are "smart money" and they don't panic sell like retail investors, but hold them for a long time. This provides permanent buying support and prevents a bear market from forming. Typical statement: Ryan Allis (Partner at HeartRithm) posted in January 2022 that "we may be in a Bitcoin supercycle, not a bear market cycle." 2. Bitcoin's dominance rate has declined, and other chains/ecosystems are in full bloom BTC accounted for 70% of the market during the bull market in 2017, and dropped to 40% in 2021. L1 chains such as Ethereum, Solana, and Avalanche have risen, and DeFi, NFT, GameFi, and Metaverse have rotated funds between different narratives. Logic: The money will not all leave the market, it will only flow from one hot spot to another, and the entire crypto market will "circulate internally" to avoid a systemic collapse. 3. DeFi high yields replace traditional wealth management DeFi annualized rate of 12%-18%, far exceeding banks' 0%-3%. It is believed that in the era of low interest rates, global funds will continue to pour into crypto to earn "real income". Typical view: In January 2022, Revix analyst Brett Hope Robertson publicly supported the supercycle theory, saying, "DeFi opens up new opportunities for yield hunters." 4. The macro environment is super friendly: inflation + unlimited money printing The US inflation in 2021 is 7% (a 40-year high), and the Bitcoin inflation rate is only 1.4%, which is regarded as "digital gold + anti-inflation assets". The Federal Reserve has unlimited QE in 2020-2021, and global liquidity is flooded, and everyone thinks that "there is so much money that there is nowhere to go, it can only flow into Bitcoin". 5. Evidence of the breaking of historical cycles Past laws: the second year after the halving (2013, 2017) rose sharply, and the third year (2014, 2018) was a bear market. After rising to 69,000 in 2021, it only pulled back by 30%-40%, and many people believe that it has "broken out of the 4-year cycle and entered a sustainable bull market". Dan Held, Willy Woo and other big Vs have repeatedly promoted "supercycle" in 2021. Reality: The supercycle theory collapsed collectively in May 2022→ the Terra/Luna thunderstorm→ Three Arrows Capital liquidated Celsius and BlockFi suspended withdrawals→ FTX collapsed, and a series of dominoes wiped out $2 trillion in the market. Bitcoin fell from 69,000 to 15,000 (-78%), and Ethereum fell from 4,800 to 880 (-82%), completely entering the crypto winter of 2022. Even Su Zhu (founder of Three Arrows Capital), who was the first to call supercycle, tweeted in May 2022: "My supercycle price theory is unfortunately wrong. ” Lesson: Every time the bull market peaks, someone shouts "this round is different", but the cycle of greed→ leverage→ black swans→ panic selling has never been broken. The "super cycle dream" in 2022 eventually turned into the most tragic bear market, which also made countless people deeply realize that the cycle always exists, but the length and depth will change due to new variables. From Grok's summary.

Dive deeper into Arbitrum

Arbitrum has emerged as a leading Ethereum scaling solution, garnering significant attention even before its airdrop in March 2023. Its utility as a layer-two scaling solution for the Ethereum network has been pivotal in establishing its prominence within the broader cryptocurrency ecosystem.

What is Arbitrum?

Arbitrum is a Layer 2 blockchain protocol specifically developed to enhance the scalability of the Ethereum network. Arbitrum aims to increase transaction throughput on Ethereum by employing optimistic roll-ups while maintaining its security and decentralization. It provides a seamless migration path for developers to transition their applications from the Layer 1 Ethereum protocol to the Layer 2 Arbitrum protocol.

Offchain Labs created the protocol, and its Mainnet was launched in 2021. In March 2023, the Arbitrum Foundation introduced ARB as the native token of the Arbitrum ecosystem. This marked an important milestone in the project's evolution and further solidified its role in the crypto space.

The Arbitrum team

The Arbitrum team comprises Ed Felten, Steven Goldfeder, and Harry Kalodner, previously researchers at Princeton University. Ed Felten, a Professor of Computer Science, brings his expertise to the project, while Steven Goldfeder and Harry Kalodner hold Ph.D. degrees in Computer Science. Together, they form a skilled and knowledgeable team driving the development and innovation behind Arbitrum.

How does Arbitrum work?

The Arbitrum network utilizes optimistic roll-ups to scale the Ethereum network. While the Ethereum blockchain can handle only 15-30 transactions per second (TPS), roll-ups can increase transaction speed by up to 85 times.

Optimistic roll-ups aggregate transactions and process them off-chain in batches rather than individually on-chain. These transactions are then verified in batches and with reduced frequency on the blockchain.

To illustrate, think of optimistic roll-ups as grouping multiple transactions, similar to picking up all the items you need from a supermarket in one go rather than paying for each item separately.

In contrast, the traditional Ethereum network processes transactions one by one, like paying for each item individually at the store. Arbitrum's protocol, leveraging optimistic roll-ups, enables transactions to be rolled-up and processed in batches, thus enhancing scalability and efficiency.

Arbitrum’s native token: ARB

ARB is an ERC-20 token that functions as the governance token within the Arbitrum ecosystem. ARB Holders can vote on proposals put forth in the decentralized autonomous organization (DAO), either in favor or against them.

Tokenomics

ARB has a total supply of 10 billion tokens, with a circulating supply of 1.275 billion tokens. During the viral airdrop on March 23, 2023, the Arbitrum Foundation distributed 12.75% of the total ARB supply to users and DAOs.

Staking ARB tokens

ARB tokens can be staked on various decentralized exchanges (DEXs), allowing users to earn rewards from the fees generated by the liquidity pool. The longer the ARB tokens are staked or locked, the higher the potential rewards for the user.

Additionally, centralized exchanges (CEXs) like OKX provide staking services for ARB through their OKX Earn. Users can earn a flexible 1 percent annual percentage yield (APY) on their staked ARB tokens.

Arbitrum’s use cases

Arbitrum's use cases primarily revolve around its governance functionality. As the native governance token of the ecosystem, ARB is designed for voting on proposals and decisions within the Arbitrum network. Additionally, ARB can be staked to earn rewards and serve as a store of value for users within the ecosystem. It's important to note that ARB is not utilized as gas fees for transactions on the network

ARB Token distribution

The supply distribution of ARB is as follows:

  • Arbitrum DAO treasury: 42.78%
  • Offchain Labs teams and advisors: 26.94%
  • Investors: 17.53%
  • Airdrop to users: 11.62%
  • Airdrop to DAOs: 1.13%

Arbitrum’s future vision

Arbitrum's future vision is centered around achieving progressive decentralization. While the Arbitrum Foundation currently holds most of the decision-making power in the ecosystem, the goal is to transition towards a more decentralized governance model as the Arbitrum ecosystem expands and more web3 users engage with the network.

In the meantime, ARB token holders can actively participate in voting for improvement proposals, ensuring a level of community involvement.

Furthermore, Arbitrum has plans to launch a Layer 3 DApp shortly.

This layer-three solution, called Orbit, will allow developers to deploy programs using popular programming languages such as Rust and C++.
