The US trade deficit has widened again to $74.4 billion, and this signal is worth serious attention from crypto market participants.

When traditional financial systems come under pressure, investors always look for alternative assets to hedge risks. What does increasing pressure on the dollar mean? It indicates that more and more institutions and individuals are considering diversification. From the data, the signals are already very clear.

Bitcoin is currently hovering around $90,793, brewing for a breakout above a key resistance level. Ethereum is close behind, maintaining strength at $3,116. What supports this wave of market movement? On-chain data provides the answer. Bitcoin spot ETF has maintained net inflows for three consecutive weeks, and exchange stablecoin reserves have reached their highest level this year, all of which are no coincidences.

Even more interestingly, SOL has risen against the trend to $137 amid market volatility, reflecting ongoing optimism for certain high-performance public chain ecosystems. The DeFi narratives within these ecosystems are revitalizing.

In the face of such market conditions, a few suggestions might be helpful: be especially cautious with leveraged positions, as high volatility makes it easy to get liquidated. From another perspective, dollar-cost averaging strategies tend to have an advantage during periods of high macro uncertainty, helping to smooth risk. Also, pay attention to the development of mainstream ecosystems with solid fundamentals—true cycle winners are often not those involved in short-term speculation, but those who persist with long-term strategic layouts.
