New FBS Analysis Highlights Liquidity Trends and Market Phases in Crypto
With Bitcoin showing renewed strength and the broader crypto market gaining momentum, traders are once again asking the crucial question: Are we nearing the peak, or is there more room to grow? According to FBS analysts, the answer lies in understanding how liquidity flows across different types of assets as market sentiment evolves.
Four phases of a crypto bull cycle
The report outlines a typical bull market cycle in four key stages. It begins with capital flowing into Bitcoin, seen as the most trusted and liquid crypto asset. As Bitcoin rallies, attention shifts to large altcoins like Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), and BNB. This is often followed by a move into smaller, more volatile tokens, as investors chase higher returns.
The final phase, often signaling the peak, is marked by a surge in meme coins such as DOGE, SHIBA, and PEPE. These assets typically gain traction through social media buzz and community hype rather than fundamental value.
'Every cycle ends in euphoria. When meme coins dominate headlines and trading volumes, it's often a sign that the market is overheated,' FBS analysts explain.
The 2021 cycle followed this exact pattern. Meme coin capitalization began to drop in October, just weeks before Bitcoin hit its high and the broader market entered a correction.
What traders should watch now
Technical patterns suggest that the crypto market still has growth potential. The total crypto market cap has broken out of bullish formations, pointing to a possible 15% upside. Altcoins may climb even higher — up to 37%, based on current targets.
Meme coins are also coming back into focus. After correcting by over 80%, their capitalization is rising again. This could indicate the start of a euphoric phase or a final stretch before the cycle peaks.
However, FBS analysts also highlight a possible shift in narrative. Real World Assets (RWAs), such as tokenized stocks and private equity, may become the new focal point. Platforms like Robinhood, Kraken, and Coinbase are already moving into this space, hinting at what could be the next wave of growth.
'Meme coins defined the last cycle. This time, RWAs may play that role, and watching where liquidity flows next will be critical,' say FBS experts.
While no one can predict the exact top, understanding market structure and investor psychology gives traders a stronger edge.

CROIX, U.S. Virgin Islands, Aug. 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The U.S. Virgin Islands Department of Tourism proudly welcomes the nomination of communications and public affairs executive Jennifer Matarangas-King as the next Commissioner of Tourism. Governor Albert Bryan Jr. announced the nomination during a Government House press briefing, positioning Matarangas-King to continue building on the Department's unprecedented momentum and growth over the past six years. A native of St. Croix and a respected voice in the Virgin Islands community, Matarangas-King brings more than 30 years of experience in strategic communications, public affairs, and organizational leadership across both the public and private sectors.

She is a strategic thinker, a skilled communicator, and a proud Virgin Islander with a deep commitment to service. I am confident that she will lead the Department of Tourism with vision and distinction.' During Commissioner Joseph Boschulte's tenure, the Department delivered one of the most transformative eras in its history, leading the Caribbean in Average Daily Rate (ADR), welcoming record-breaking air and cruise arrivals, reimagining signature festivals, launching award-winning marketing campaigns, and forging groundbreaking partnerships across sports, entertainment, and global travel markets. The Virgin Islands emerged as a premier destination during a time of global tourism disruption, with the Department's efforts driving consistent economic recovery, increased visitor spend, and all-time high collections into the Tourism Advertising and Revolving Fund (TARF). 'I am honored and humbled to be considered for this role,' said Jennifer Matarangas-King. 'Tourism is one of the most powerful tools we have to shape the future of these Virgin Islands. It drives investment, fuels entrepreneurship, and celebrates our identity. I look forward to working alongside our tourism stakeholders and the incredible team at the Department to elevate our product, empower our people, and expand our reach as a premier Caribbean destination.' Matarangas-King began her public service career as press secretary to Governor Roy Schneider and later served as public relations director for Senator Vargrave Richards. For over two decades, she played an integral leadership role at Viya and its predecessor companies, spearheading public relations, corporate communications, customer experience, and strategic planning initiatives. Through her work in telecommunications, Matarangas-King played a pivotal role in ensuring connectivity for visitors to the territory and has also served as a board member on the St. Croix Hotel Association. The Department of Tourism thanks Joseph Boschulte for his years of leadership and innovation. In the interim, Boschulte will provide support to Commissioner Matarangas-King and the Department of Tourism through the transition period, ensuring operational continuity and alignment of strategic priorities.
