According to Sam Altman, as highlighted by @Matt_Hougan, the latest blog post 'The Gentle Slope' discusses gradual technological adoption and its direct relevance to crypto market cycles (source: blog.samaltman.com/the-gentle-sin). Altman emphasizes that transitions in tech, including blockchain and AI, unfold steadily, which may influence investor sentiment and crypto asset volatility. For traders, understanding this incremental market adoption is crucial for timing entries and exits, especially during periods of low momentum and consolidation, often seen before major crypto bull runs (source: Sam Altman's blog, June 10, 2025).
