If you want to follow the big money in cryptocurrency, you need to understand the CME as a mirror! Currently, besides BTC and ETH, the two big brothers, only SOL can join the table—this may not be considered an imperial edict, but it is definitely a signal of capital voting with their feet.
In the eyes of big investors, there are two types of 'hotcakes':
One type is the mainstream leaders; BTC is the 'genesis totem' of blockchain, its status is as stable as Mount Tai; although ETH is still catching up, its ecosystem is too large to be ignored, these two are the 'ballast stones' for capital, no matter how much they drop, there are always people willing to buy the dip.
The other type is quality potential stocks, but this 'quality' is not just a casual claim; it must be recognized by the market with real capital, and their status must be solid enough to withstand pressure. BNB is running horizontally in the exchange track thanks to Binance's backing; SOL's entry into the CME is also because it has developed its own ecosystem and consensus in the public chain, and funds believe 'this one has potential,' willing to bet real money on it.
To be honest, besides these four, it's hard for other cryptocurrencies to attract the attention of big capital! Even with these four, what everyone is mostly concerned about are the 'top two': for example, with BTC, you can't avoid talking about MSTR, the 'coin hoarder'; ETH has been hot lately, but when big names like Tom Lee speak, the market reacts more.
So, don’t blindly chase trends in cryptocurrency; the gaze of big capital is much sharper than ours—those that can catch the attention of institutions and compliant platforms must either have solid foundations or sufficient potential. Following this wave of signals, at least the probability of stepping into a pit can be reduced by half!
