It never came. Benjamin Cowen, founder of IntoTheCryptoverse, wasn’t surprised. He had a name for what was happening, and it changed everything. “This is a cycle where Bitcoin topped on apathy rather than euphoria.” That single phrase explains more about the 2025 cycle than any price target or on-chain metric.
