You are right that things are different but that's what was said the last two cycles.
It would be more correct to write that ATH usually occurs 1 to 1.5 years after halving, which was the case with halving in 2016 - and all this we see today is probably not yet a consequence of halving but the result of institutional investment and interest in BTC. It is also questionable whether things will continue as they were before, which would mean things will follow the pattern of halving -> ATH -> big correction -> crypto winter/accumulation.
Bergkampsballs, if we stick to the cycle, then next year should bring a new correction and a crypto winter that could last until halving 2024 - but that's just an assumption based on past events that may or may not be accurate
