But his cautionary note was just as loud: once the cycle tops, he sees a sharp correction of over 50% as a likely outcome.<\/p>\n<style>\n    .dark-mode .read-more {background-color: #343a40 !important;}\n<\/style>\n<div class=\"read-more pb-3 pt-3 pt-md-2 px-3 my-4 border bg-light\">\n    <h5 class=\"text-uppercase border-bottom mb-3 pb-1 d-none d-md-block\">READ MORE:<\/h5>\n    <a class=\"article row\" href=\"https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/metaplanet-launches-u-s-arm-in-florida-to-expand-bitcoin-strategy\/\" title=\"Metaplanet Launches U.S. Arm in Florida to Expand Bitcoin Strategy\">\n        <div class=\"contentRight col-4\">\n            <span class=\"imgContainer mt-0\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"image img-defer\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/10\/metaplanet-1-240x170.webp\">\n            <\/span>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"contentLeft col-8\">\n            <h4 class=\"title mb-0\">Metaplanet Launches U.S. Arm in Florida to Expand Bitcoin Strategy<\/h4>           \n            \n        <\/div>        \n    <\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p>His post also <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/scottmelker\/status\/1918052681136128132\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">caught<\/a><\/strong> the attention of fellow analyst Scott Melker, who echoed Brandt\u2019s sentiment and fueled further conversation among traders.
