I wonder if everyone has noticed that the market seems to be quietly warming up, although the strength is not great and is only partial. First, SOL has returned to $140, knowing that it had previously dropped below $100, a rebound of over 40% is, in my view, a relatively good signal, especially considering the lack of confidence in the market. SOL is the main player in these two rounds of market movements; if SOL strengthens, it to some extent represents the dynamics of the main funds in the crypto space.

Additionally, regarding altcoins, although they indeed had a very severe drop before, with a decline of 90% no longer being particularly unusual, there have been some altcoins making notable moves recently, and occasionally, there are instances of futures prices being inverted compared to spot prices. This reflects the main players pushing the spot market; due to the current poor depth, the main players often manipulate the market using futures as well. This actually resonates with what I mentioned earlier, that the difficulty of altcoins is extremely high, as the initiative is basically in the hands of the main players—they can drive prices up or down at will.

In this market, opportunities are definitely limited. The most appropriate strategy now is to lay out long positions and minimize short-term actions. It’s okay to set up some swing trades, but it’s unnecessary to invest too much time and energy into short-term trading; during bad market conditions, the more one fiddles, the more losses one may incur. At this position, market confidence is not very strong, but due to observable signs of main player actions, if the short-term trend continues to slowly increase prices amidst fluctuations, then it may be worth considering to follow and be bullish.

There isn’t much to talk about lately; overall, I still focus on recharging everyone’s faith and boosting morale, because based on past experiences, holding coins at the current price will definitely yield good returns in the future. If you feel that the current market is not very good, then look at the long-term prospects, or take advantage of the nice weather to go out more, see more, and enjoy life outside of investing; this can be a form of investment strategy.

Thank you for your attention.
