The current market trend is quite frustrating. Bitcoin is moving back and forth between 86K and 88K, with no momentum; Ethereum has also retreated to the 2800–2900 range. It seems the market lacks certainty, and no one can see clearly what will happen next in the short term.

Volatility is increasing, and market sentiment has become more cautious. The main issues are concentrated in these areas—

In terms of capital, everyone is holding back. High-leverage assets are the first to feel the pressure. Altcoins and those overvalued projects are also accelerating their adjustments, and speculative enthusiasm has clearly cooled down. Under this rhythm, it’s difficult to see any signs of a rebound in the short term.

86K just walking away, and ETH has already returned to 2800. This pace is really a bit uncomfortable. This wave is really unpredictable; it feels like big funds are holding back big moves. The copycat projects are basically done for, and with leverage, not to mention, the leverage traders' slaughter machine has started, for sure. Lack of certainty is right; a rebound signal? Can't see it for now. It's really annoying that 88K won't go up; we have to wait and see if there's a turning point. High leverage liquidations are probably coming again, pity for those small retail investors. Indeed, being cautious is better than reckless moves. Now it's just a matter of who can survive until the rebound day. Speculative enthusiasm has cooled down, but the money is gone too. How will this go in the short term? With this atmosphere, it probably has to continue stalemating.

86K this level is really clingy, feels like being trapped --- Starting to squeeze high leverage again, everyone in the know is probably reducing their positions --- Altcoins have really suffered this round, overvaluation is damn --- Funds are so tight, what rebound are you talking about --- Where will Ethereum fall to? This pace is too torturous --- No more certainty, I'll just lie flat in the short term --- Friends with high leverage, how do you feel now? --- Speculative enthusiasm has indeed decreased, indicating everyone is scared --- Let's wait and see, anyway there are no signs of a rebound right now --- 2800 looks too ugly, feels like it can't be broken
