Internet Computer Will CRASH Even More in 2026 | ICP Crypto Update 🚨

Hinzugefügt: 2026-05-05

[00:00:00]ICP will crash even more in 2026. And in this video, I'm going to show you why.

[00:00:05]Even though we have Mission 70 and ICP will become deflationary in 2026, its price will continue to go down until October of this year. Mission 70 will positively impact the price of ICP starting from October 2026 only or some months later, as I'm going to show you later in more detail.

[00:00:30]And this is because the all crypto market is going to be in a bear market in 2026 following the four-year cycle model. As I explained in my video about the Bitcoin's four-year cycle model, the Bitcoin price always reaches the bottom one year after the peak of the bull run. As you can see here in this chart, I explained this very well and in very much detail.

[00:01:02]And as you can see here, the red boxes, which indicate the bear market, always lasted approximately one year.

[00:01:13]As you can see here, 378 days in 2022 and 378 days in 2018. So, what we can expect from Bitcoin this year is that it will reach its bottom in October 2026 because the peak was in October 2025.

[00:01:36]As always, altcoins will follow the Bitcoin price and will react some months later.

[00:01:43]So, some months after October 2026, we should see ICP and the other altcoins recover following Bitcoin and there we will enter a sideways phase which will last approximately 500 days, as you can see here in my previous video, where you can see these gray boxes. The sideways phase will last from the bottom of the bear market till the next Bitcoin halving. After the next Bitcoin halving, there's going to be another 500 days of bull market and we will reach the peak of the next bull cycle in 2029. Let me quickly show you the Bitcoin price to show you that the peak was exactly 100 and actually approximately 126,000 dollars in October, at the beginning of October 2025. And the fact that we now entered a bear market, as you can see here, this is a very clear downtrend for Bitcoin. Right now, we're testing the 80K US dollar level resistance level and we're probably going to be rejected here, so that the downtrend will be confirmed.

[00:03:10]Which is the most likely scenario in terms of technical analysis. Anyways, guys, this is not all bad news because this exactly means that we have approximately six months to continue accumulate Bitcoin, ICP and other altcoins and get ready for the next bull cycle in 2029. I want to make this clear from the beginning. Not only ICP will crash, all altcoins will crash in 2026, will continue to crash in 2026. So, this is the perfect time to start building our portfolio and get ready for the next bull cycle.

[00:03:51]And in this video, I'm going to show you exactly how to structure your portfolio, what strategy to use, how to buy into your favorite assets during the bear market to minimize risks and potentially maximize returns. So, the strategy I've been using for the past 10 years is dollar cost averaging.

[00:04:12]Many people are probably familiar with this strategy, so I'm going to be very brief, but basically, dollar cost averaging is a strategy that most investors use to buy into an asset and minimize the risk of buying everything at the wrong moment. So, how do you use the dollar cost averaging strategy? Let's use an example. So, if you have 10K USD to invest into ICP, for example, what you'll do is you will buy 1K USD of ICP every month exactly at the same date without even looking at the price. So, for example, I will buy 1K ICP on the 1st of May, then 1K of ICP on the 1st of June, 1K of ICP on the 1st of July, and so on until I reach 10K. It's statistically proven that investing this way in the long term minimizes the risk of buying at high prices and that it mitigates the risk of having losses. So, while this strategy is very simple to understand and to apply, it is very useful to buy into an asset. But the real problem is understanding what asset to buy.

[00:05:32]Building your portfolio is a delicate phase because you want your portfolio to be diversified, so you want to buy different assets that are not correlated so you can minimize risk, but at the same time, you don't want your portfolio to be too much diversified because you also want to maximize returns. I know many people build their portfolios by copying influencers' portfolio.

[00:05:59]This is not a good strategy at all, is not a good approach at all because first of all, influencers may have bought some tokens at different prices than when you buy because you may watch the video at a later time. And in addition, if an influencer restructures its portfolio, so it changes the tokens or the allocations of its portfolio, then you won't be notified in real time. Also, influencers cannot give you a personalized assistance because they don't have the time for that and they're not even authorized to do that because they're not authorized financial advisors. In my case, for example, I can make analysis, I can suggest something, I can put my experience on the table, but I cannot provide financial advice.

[00:06:54]This video, in fact, as any other video in my channel is not financial advice.

[00:06:59]But so, how do you structure your portfolio if you're not an expert? Well, I know many of you try to do their own research and analysis, but to be honest with you guys, I've seen most people failing with this approach because it's not enough to just be alone in front of your laptop and research stuff to be successful in trading and investing. So, based on my experience, there's two categories of people who actually succeed in crypto, which is people like me who have ton of experience and have been failing for some years before building massive wealth in crypto. And if you're just getting started, you probably don't want to do what I did because that means for the first year at least, you will lose money.

[00:07:58]You may change the course of action as I did and become a millionaire, but you know, it's not guaranteed and it's also not for everyone. The other category of people that I've seen succeeding is people who rely on personalized assistance from a specialized broker.

[00:08:18]So, some weeks ago, I met Jeff from UpTrade that also won the best analysis platform during Paris Blockchain Week on the 15th of April. And Jeff runs a broker that provides personalized 24/7 support and assistance for traders and investors.

[00:08:40]And that platform is called UpTrade.

[00:08:42]It's based in Australia. You can find the link in the description and this is the platform I'm talking about. I've been testing it for some time now. It's very reliable, offers competitive fees structure, but what makes it special is what I was talking about earlier. They provide 24/7 support, a dedicated crypto broker, plus all the research and insights that you need to stay ahead of the game. I mean, guys, imagine investing on Binance or Coinbase and at the same time getting support by a dedicated broker that's there only for you to assist you in every single step of your trading and investing journey. I think this is a game-changer, especially for new traders or older people who are not digital native and are not very familiar with crypto, but it's also useful for experienced traders who want to have an additional edge. You can even book a free consultation with a dedicated broker so you can see if that's something for you. You just fill out this form and they will contact you and you will have a call with an advisor. You will explain what's your objective. So, you want to structure your portfolio, you want to gain an edge in active trading if you're an active trader and not a passive one. They will basically adapt to your needs and provide the support of deep analysis because they spend 200 hours per week in internal analysis to provide you with the best data to navigate the crypto market. They already have 10,000 users.

[00:10:29]60% of them comes from US, 40% comes from Australia.

[00:10:36]And they provide support for 500 plus digital assets. So, you'll surely find your favorite token there.

[00:10:46]Again, personalized assistance with a dedicated broker, same-day OTC settlement and tailored research and portfolio insights from in-house team.

[00:10:58]I've seen their offices. They have many people working on analysis every day, so you don't have to. Then, they have a dedicated research platform that, as I showed you, won the best platform analysis prize during the Paris Blockchain Week. And if you join Uptrade Alpha, you can access information about the assets that the brokers are tracking at the moment, so you can discover new assets that will probably perform very well very soon, so you can gain an edge against other investors who don't have access to this data and analysis like you would do in if you join Uptrade Alpha. You can even request a custom research based on your own needs. So, you want a portfolio structuring, again, you can ask your advisor to help you structure your portfolio. You want to trade actively and you're thinking about trading some tokens, you can request analysis on those specific tokens, tailored analysis just for you.

[00:12:03]I've never seen a platform with such personalized support. And you will even receive market updates and trading opportunities weekly, not from a random newsletter that doesn't provide any value, but from somebody that actually won a prize from one of the most important events in Web3, which is the Paris Blockchain Week. Then, here you can see that they are a registered digital currency exchange provider.

[00:12:37]Again, as I said before, in Australia, so it's really reliable. And guys, this is all you need to navigate the crypto market securely and gain an edge over other investors and build your wealth in crypto. So, now that you know how to buy into an asset to minimize risks thanks to the dollar cost averaging strategy.

[00:12:59]And now that you know how to structure your portfolio with the support of a specialized broker, let me wrap up with the latest updates about ICP and what you can expect from it in 2026.

[00:13:13]Because, as I said, we now have Mission 70, which will make ICP deflationary. If you want more detail about Mission 70 and you want to understand what's that, check my Twitter, link in the description. Cloud engines will probably launch in 2026 and they will be a real game-changer. Again, if you want to understand better cloud engines, just check my Twitter account.

[00:13:38]I've been talking about cloud engines for a while, but I believe this new feature of the Internet Computer, together with Caffeine AI and ICP skills, will drive demand for ICP tokens way higher. However, as I stated before, sell pressure will be stronger than buyers at least until October 2026, so expect a downtrend till then, but after October 2026, the price of Bitcoin will go up, altcoins will follow, and I believe that the bull run of 2029 will be the year of ICP. It will finally be clear that ICP will be the hub for Web3, connecting every other chain. Most AI tokens will be wiped out by the 2026 bear market, so in 2029, ICP will be the undisputed leader of decentralized AI. Till then, you still have 6 months till October 2026 to accumulate the most ICP possible before the bull run in 2029. Again, if you want to include ICP in your portfolio, if you want to analyze your portfolio and see if ICP fits right, then you can book a call with Uptrade. They will analyze your portfolio, they will answer all your questions, provide research from their team. Link in the description. Let me know what you think about ICP and what I believe that's going to happen in 2026, and see you in the next
