Brothers, today is another day of confusion in the crypto world! BTC is stuck at $81,666; although it has shrunk again compared to last week, no one in the group is wailing. Some shout 'buy the dip', others curse 'going to zero', but your captain is still in the office sipping an iced blueberry latte, watching AI quantitative models run contract data, feeling steady! Why? Because true crypto veterans no longer rely on gambling on price fluctuations; technology and connections are the real currency!
1. How significant is the trade war? The more chaotic the market, the more you need to see through the essence. Recently, Trump's series of tariff tricks have raised taxes on imported goods from China, Mexico, Canada, and even the EU to 20%-25%, causing global stock markets and crypto markets to plunge collectively, and even the Fed has come out to shift the blame, saying it's a 'Biden era aftershock'. But brothers, don't be misled by this noise! Bitcoin's short-term volatility has always been driven by emotions; the long-term trend logic is what truly matters.
Look at the data: After the tariffs were implemented, BTC dropped to a low of $77,000, but the entire network had $396 million in liquidations. What does this mean? The leveraged gamblers were wiped out, while the true holders remained unmoved. The actual profits of long-term holders still far exceed losses; the foundation of the bull market seems unshaken. US ETF funds are still quietly flowing in; institutions claim to be hedging, but secretly they're buying, with Bitcoin ETFs alone swallowing over $12 billion in the first quarter!
What's worse is that mining costs have surged by 17% due to tariffs! Mining machines and chips are being choked off, small miners can't survive, but big miners grit their teeth and endure, which will accelerate industry reshuffling and highlight Bitcoin's scarcity even more. Doesn't this scenario resemble the 2020 halving market? Supply contraction + institutions rushing to buy, $150,000 is just a matter of time!
2. Stop staring at the K-line! The Dubai summit is the energy field of the big players, and the captain will be present!
Today, I booked a flight to Dubai at the end of the month; what's ten hours of travel? Back then, I spent three days and nights in the mining farm without blinking an eye! Why must I go? Because the 2049 Token Summit gathers top leaders from Europe and America; Vitalik, CZ, and a16z partners will all be present. If you don’t immerse yourself in this circle, you’ll always be a nobody in the WeChat group!
Here's a harsh truth: If your English isn't good, you can't even understand the white paper, so what can you discuss about investment projects? If you're in a low-tier circle and can't even add the WeChat of the business director at an exchange, where are you going to get insider information? If your energy is low, you're constantly being swayed by FUD (fear, uncertainty, doubt) and deserve to be chopped by the big players!
I, Captain Wang, have long set my sights on the Middle East, integrating AI quantitative systems with Wall Street high-frequency strategies. Recently, a friend even got a compliant fund license in Dubai. Why? Because a global layout can hedge against single-market risks! No matter how fierce the trade war, there will always be countries welcoming blockchain, like the UAE, Thailand, Turkey, Switzerland, and El Salvador.
3. AI Quantitative + Going Abroad: The only path for ordinary people to make a comeback.
I know someone will argue: 'Captain Wang, you don't know the struggle, we have little capital and few resources, how can we play?' Bro, this is a matter of mindset! Back then, I entered with 5000 yuan; now my disciples manage over a hundred million in funds, relying on three core principles:
Use AI to hedge against human weaknesses.
Why do retail investors lose money? Chasing highs and selling lows, FOMO (fear of missing out), and unable to hold onto spot... But AI quantitative models only look at data. No matter how chaotic the trade war gets, the algorithm calmly executes grid trading and arbitrage strategies, achieving an annualized return of 150% over BTC! Recently, with market panic, my system even set automatic buy orders around $80,000; this is what it means to be 'greedy when others are fearful'.
Integrate resources abroad; don't be a lone wolf.
Can't make moves in China? Then go to Dubai, Thailand, Malaysia! These places have zero capital gains tax, quick approval for compliant licenses, and even allow you to pay utility bills with BTC. More importantly, offline KOL summits are where you can gather valuable information! I met a Middle Eastern tycoon in Pattaya last time, who directly invested $2 million in my friend's private fund. Can such opportunities be discussed in a WeChat group? Upgrading your circle brings in energy.
What is the most valuable thing in the crypto world? It's not BTC, but the information gap and trust chain! While you're listening to rumors in the group, the big players have already finalized their market-making strategies at private parties. Therefore, you must learn English, wear a suit, and print business cards! At the end of the month, at the Dubai 2049 Token Summit, I'm bringing 20 business plans, aiming to secure three institutional LPs; this is how the energy field works!
Fourth, to sum up: 2025 is the year of going abroad; don't wait until the bull market comes to start making moves.
Brothers, the trade war, economic recession, and the Fed's rhetoric... these black swans will never kill Bitcoin, because de-dollarization is the trend. But to survive until dawn, you must do two things:
Don't gamble in the short term! The market sentiment is extremely fearful, and the risk of derivatives liquidation is high. It's better to dollar-cost average in spot trading than to play contracts. Don't be timid in the long term! Focus your energy on going abroad, learning English, mingling in circles, and finding projects; in 2025, there will be opportunities everywhere, it's just about whether you dare to seize them.
Lastly, here's a saying for everyone: 'There is no retirement in the crypto world, only changing battlefields!' Today, you complain about the fatigue of a ten-hour flight, but tomorrow you’ll be sitting on the sidelines watching others feast.
See you in Dubai at the end of the month; I, Captain Wang, will help you break through the ceiling of circles...
