I believe in BTC and the more i see post like this i feel even better, because this resits every year .... lol 
It seems to me that one day there will be a breakdown in cycles anyway, because it turns out it is very easy to buy bitcoin before the halving and sell afterwards. One day there will be a manipulation which will panic on the market and most people will lose money. Statistically there is no 100% repeat of cycles, especially in such a manipulative market as cryptocurrencies. I think the fall from $69K down to $16K lost a lot of people a lot of money. It seems that we're now on the way back up and I personally believe that we'll see a new ATH sometime in the next two years. As 5thangel says, this seems to be a pattern that repeats, although I would say every 4 years. Bitcoin does need a "wall of worry" to climb if the price is going to keep rising, and it seems like that worry is coming and has already started taking a toll on other assets internationally. The big question that remains is if Bitcoin is going to rally through a recession, or experience it's first break from the 4-year price cycle.
