The recent market has been quite interesting. Look at the major index, it has been gradually climbing. This kind of rise is not the rapid surge that makes adrenaline spike, but a slow upward movement like boiling a frog in warm water. By the time retail investors finally sense the "bull market is coming" signals and get ready to buy, Bitcoin's price has long since moved far away from the foot of the mountain. This is the most common case of hindsight in the market. If you are still hesitating whether to buy the dip now, the final outcome is likely to be buying at a high price.



Let's talk about what happened last night. The US stock market was falling, but crypto assets were moving upward against the trend. Think back—was it always the opposite before? When US stocks rose, the crypto market fell, and funds flowed into traditional finance. Now, the trend has shifted again, and money is flowing back into the crypto market. This seesaw effect actually reflects a change in risk appetite.

Regarding the current market, I want to be very straightforward: don't try to predict the top, and don't blindly buy the dip. What you should do is to position yourself in advance before the main trend solidifies. Even just holding your spot assets passively is much more relaxing than constantly staring at candlestick charts and feeling conflicted. Markets are often born out of disappointment and move upward amid swings. The current calm is just a preparation for the next round of more intense volatility.

The analogy of boiling frogs in warm water is perfect; retail investors are always the ones getting eaten this way. All the bottom-fishers are just taking over the positions, and now they’re going to suffer losses again. The market sentiment shifts so quickly, why can't I keep up with the rhythm? Just holding spot assets is indeed worry-free, but I get itchy hands. The back of the seesaw effect is just funds cutting leeks. Now is the time to position oneself for the next surge. A slow rise is the real bull market; a rapid rise is just a trap. Why is it that I always realize things too late? This crypto rebound feels like something big is coming.

It's the same old argument of boiling frogs in warm water; I've heard it too many times. Those who are truly making money have already jumped in. Retail investors are always the last relay runners, no doubt. Lying down and HODLing is really much more enjoyable than watching K-line charts every day. That's exactly how I am right now.

The metaphor of boiling frogs in warm water is brilliant; retail investors are always the last ones to take the fall.

It's the same old late realization routine, retail investors can never get the timing right. Wait, has the capital flow really shifted this time? It still feels like a teeter-totter. Lying down and holding coins without moving is better than anything. Really, stop staring at the charts all day, it's exhausting. This sluggish upward trend actually hides a deadly trap. Most of the recent buyers have become the bagholders. As soon as risk appetite shifts, the market changes face—it's incredible. Is your position allocation set, everyone? I’ve already pulled out.
