2.4.0. The Quaternary Wave
As the usefulness of the crypto becomes evident, more and more institutions will keep trooping into the crypto project. The effect is that the price of the crypto will continue to rise.
Meanwhile, retailers at this stage are in a frenzy trying to buy and store up as much as possible the crypto coins in their portfolios because they now realise the institutions are out to grasp most of the coins off the market.
This frenzy rush for the crypto coupled with the entry of more and more institutions and high-volume investors will trigger the Quaternary Wave, which is the Fourth Wave.
As the hype around the crypto builds up, if the Developers will carry out further Circulating Coin Reduction (CCR), no matter how small the coin reduction, the price of the crypto will suddenly surge upwards reaching all-time high.
However, even if there is no CCR being carried out, as the rush for the crypto intensifies, the price of the crypto will still surge upwards, and may climb more than 1 000% above the peak of the Third Wave.
2.4.1. The Coming of Government Regulation
The interesting aspect of the Fourth Wave is that government regulators, who would have been eyeing the lucrative industry with its fluctuating crypto price, will want to come in at this stage.
Often, the government will want to justify their entry and involvement in the crypto project on the pretext that they are bringing stability to the crypto price by regulating it as well as protecting gullible investors from fraudsters and predator’s overtures in the industry.
The fact is that these are basically camouflaged whitewashed excuses. The main underlying reason for government regulation will be obviously to obtain a share of the cake through taxation. This has been the case in various industries throughout human history, and the Crypto Market may not be an exception.
Once the first of such major government regulations kicks in, the price of the crypto will drop and flatten out, marking the commencement of the Fourth Winter Season.
However, due to the large market capitalization and the fact that institutional money is now involved, the dropped price of the crypto will be higher than the peak price of the Third Wave.
