Looking at the recent market, global assets are rising, but encryption is falling—this is not just a Bear Market, but a more painful structural differentiation. During the Rebound, the shadow of altcoins is nowhere to be seen, but when they fall, altcoins are the first to arrive. The most direct logic is: Mainstream Token is in Accumulation, and altcoins are going down with it.

On the macro front, the Federal Reserve's attitude has turned hawkish, and the market's expectations for interest rate cuts have been repeatedly revised downwards. In this environment, funds naturally seek refuge, with high-risk assets being the first to be neglected. The fact that BTC can still hold its ground indicates that the main players have a consensus on a bottom line here; however, the short-term outflow of ETFs and the gradual draining of sentiment reflect the reality that new funds are not coming in, and existing funds are fleeing.

In plain terms, the crypto world is currently going through the most counterintuitive phase—those who chase rises are getting slapped in the face, those who bottom fish are continuously losing, and only those holding Mainstream Tokens will survive to see a Rebound.

The altcoin scene really has no way out this time, the accumulation rhythm of mainstream tokens is just amazing. With the Fed's attitude, it's normal for funds to seek safe havens, we'll just have to see how long the market makers can hold on. Being caught in the squeeze of chasing the price and buying the dip only indicates one thing — if you don't have mainstream tokens, don't play. The outflow of ETFs is becoming increasingly obvious, and new capital is really not coming in. The anti-human phase is like this, those who are alive to see the rebound are basically betting on the mainstream. Those who are holding on are still there, while the others are basically on the road to Cut Loss.

Another day beaten down by the market, those holding Mainstream Token are really just waiting for a Rebound, while the rest are just practice partners... --- I've been numb from buying the dip, every time I say this is the opportunity, but in the end, Cutting Loss has become a habitual action, my mentality has really collapsed. --- It's true that the market maker is Accumulation, but what are we retail investors accumulating? We're just accumulating tears, brother. --- The Bear Market really tests human nature, and that’s absolutely true... right now it's testing how much I can lose. --- Altcoin is indeed the first to arrive, and the way it arrives is by directly experiencing a 50% Slump, it's too ruthless. --- Wait, are you saying that holding BTC will allow me to wait for a Rebound? When will my scattered coins ever have a chance to recover losses? --- That phrase "emotions have been drained" hit me hard, now looking at the Candlestick charts makes me numb, I’ve long lost my feelings. --- Let’s be reborn, we have to believe that there are still opportunities after this drop, otherwise how do we survive... --- New funds can’t come in and existing funds are fleeing, which means there’s basically no one to catch a falling knife right now, that’s too heart-wrenching. --- Mainstream Token can still hold on, which shows there are still people with confidence, let’s just follow that confidence, anyway it’s already like this.

Altcoins have completely become bloodsucking tools, anyway, I already closed all positions on those worthless coins. Holding onto mainstream tokens, and the others? Don't touch them. This wave of chasing the price and buying the dip has indeed been torturous, I’m just watching. As long as BTC holds up, the others are just supporting roles. It's really a 1-9 distribution, suckers are still fantasizing. If this wave still plays with altcoins, it's purely looking for death.

Altcoin is really going to the grave, I am currently in the hell of Cut Loss. Speaking of buying the dip, those who tried have all died; Mainstream Token is the way to go. Market makers are accumulating, retail investors are delivering; I can't play this game anymore. When will the rebound come? It feels hopeless. Holding BTC still gives me a chance to survive, the rest are just suckers. All the funds have run away, we really have to endure this round.

Holding mainstream tokens and waiting for the rebound, directly meeting Marx if holding altcoins, this is the true portrayal of the crypto world. Buying the dip until numb, chasing the price until bankrupt, where's the promised wealth? Now it has all turned into huge losses. As soon as the Fed turns hawkish, all funds rug pull, BTC is still holding on, while other coins are already preparing for the aftermath. The harshest part is not the fall, but that you can never catch that train; when the market maker is accumulating, you are cutting loss. The phrase about emotions being drained hit home; seeing once a thousand times coin now turned into a drizzle, smiling as you lose out on this trade.
