📉 If Bitcoin is repeating its previous cycles (2015–2018 and 2018–2022), the market peak may have already happened on October 26, marking the start of a new bear phase

🚀 $OPEN Buyback: A New 5 Million $OPEN Cycle Begins
The broader market looks quiet today. Momentum is slow, most charts are barely moving, and overall sentiment feels bearish. Yet $OPEN is breaking the silence with a completely different energy. It’s already up more than twelve percent, and trading volume has exploded by over fifty percent at a time when the rest of the market looks frozen. You rarely see a move like this unless serious accumulation is happening behind the scenes.
✔️ Now the new five million $OPEN buyback cycle is beginning, and the timing couldn’t be more interesting. $OPEN remains one of the few projects executing real, revenue-backed buybacks. When a token shows this level of strength before the buyback even starts, it usually signals that the next phase catches the entire market off guard. This is how a strong long-term reputation is built in real time for everyone to see.

📊 Strategy’s own annual performance tracker paints a brutal picture
Top performers this year were Google (+66%), Gold (+64%), and NVIDIA (+41%) — steady gains without signs of overheating. Major indices and Big Tech also closed in the green.
On the other side of the spectrum: BTC (-6%), IBIT (-6%), and especially MSTR (-47%).
The takeaway is clear: the company with the largest Bitcoin exposure underperformed Bitcoin itself.
Leverage, a high premium to NAV, and expectations that never materialized ended up hurting shareholders more than BTC’s drawdown.
