On Christmas night, the entire financial world exploded. Trump released a figure: in the next seven days, 20 trillion dollars will flow into the US market.



You might not have a concept of this number. Look at it from another angle—it’s close to China’s total annual GDP, and five times the combined market cap of all global cryptocurrencies. If that’s true, it’s not just news, but a precursor to a capital earthquake.

Capital flows are never random. Just look at historical records. Every time major global capital rushes into a certain economy, high-liquidity assets in that place tend to take off first.

For example, in 2017—the wave of dollar repatriation expectations heated up, and Bitcoin surged over 1300% that year. At that time, the crypto market was still very small, and infrastructure couldn’t compare to now. By 2020, with trillions of dollars in stimulus plans landing, Bitcoin skyrocketed from $3,800 to $69,000. This wave of market movement was enough to change many people’s life trajectories.

The current situation is completely different. What do we have now? The pathway for Bitcoin spot ETFs has opened, institutional-grade asset custody systems have matured, and compliance frameworks are gradually being established. In short, the previous “channel blockage” problem has basically been solved. Such huge capital—like 20 trillion—coming in is no longer a technical or institutional issue.

The core logic here is—this money could mean that the US dollar is entering a new round of liquidity easing. When massive funds start looking for places to settle, chasing limited good assets, traditional valuation methods become invalid. Metrics like P/E ratios or cash flow forecasts are less important than a more fundamental question: how effectively can this asset absorb and carry such a large amount of capital? How strong is the market consensus?

Under this logic, where do Bitcoin and Ethereum stand? Especially Ethereum, which has both settlement layer attributes and yield-generating capabilities, with a broad ecosystem network. From the perspective of capital absorption efficiency and consensus depth, these assets are likely to become the top choices for this round of large capital inflows.

So here’s the question: if this 20 trillion really starts flowing, what are you going to do? Watch the excitement onshore, or, before the wave fully hits, find your position?

200 trillion? I don't believe you, but if it's really true, I'm doomed. --- Another trust me bro series, I was hyping the same last Christmas, and my all-in account still hasn't recovered. --- Ethereum capacity efficiency? Bro, I've heard this spiel a hundred times in the Telegram group [laugh cry]. --- Alright, I choose to go all-in. Anyway, I've lost before, what else can happen? --- Channels are open, institutions are coming, but my wallet is still so empty. What's the logic here? --- Calm analysis: The article didn't mention a specific source, but I've already gone all-in, source: hope. --- I've seen too many claims of potential new stars; the real hundredfold opportunities have already been eaten up by big players. --- The technical and compliance frameworks are mature, so why am I still cutting losses? --- I like this reasoning. It sounds crazy, but I just want to believe it.

200 trillion? Ha, here we go again. Said the same last time, and look what happened... --- If it really flows in, the ETF channel would indeed be smooth, but who dares to bet on Trump's words? --- I didn't get on board in 2017, I didn't fully capitalize in 2020, is it really my turn this time? Doubting it --- Ethereum settlement property ecosystem network... sounds good, but something is always missing --- Let's lay down some groundwork first, anyway I have idle money with nowhere to put it --- Wait, does this logic imply that I should get on board now? Don't get caught, buddy --- Depth of consensus? The consensus in the crypto world is shallow, don't deceive yourself --- I just want to know, if the 200 trillion really comes, what can small investors still get? --- Feels like another prelude to cutting the leeks... but I still want to take a shot

200 trillion? That number sounds outrageous, but if it really flows in, BTC and ETH are probably going to take off.

200 trillion? Sounds like a fairy tale, but in our circle, it's impossible not to have heard of fairy tales. I'm just worried it's another "wolf coming," and in the end, there's no wolf, only the retail investors. I didn't get on the train during that wave in 2017, and I only partially entered in 2020... If it really happens this time, I think I need to consider how not to miss out again. The ETF channel truly changed the game; previously, institutions couldn't get in, but now they've paved the way for you. By the way, I just want to know if this 200 trillion gap is only for the US to play with, or if we here also have a chance to benefit? It seems the issue isn't whether we can get in, but how to position ourselves before entering. What if we just assume it's really coming—how would you all go all-in?
