223. Your Altcoins Suck, Ben Just Bought More. Here’s What You Need To Know

In this episode of the Ben & Bergs Podcast, we’re officially calling it: this bull market is nothing like the last one.

Altcoins are getting crushed against Bitcoin, with most down 30–50% while BTC continues to dominate. Ben and Bergs unpack:

Key Takeaways

- Altcoins are underperforming Bitcoin by 40% YTD—most retail investors are still down bad

- Old strategies from 2017 or 2021 won’t work this cycle due to poor tokenomics and low retail demand

- Bitcoin is behaving like a flight-to-safety asset, showing surprising strength during global conflict

- You must actively manage your portfolio—cut underperformers and double down on conviction plays

Good investors react to the market’s behaviour, not the headlines.
