The big player goes home for the New Year, while retail investors are still losing money in place.

Several tokens in the Binance Alpha sector have crashed, some say it's the big players dumping, others say the project team withdrew the liquidity. The truth is only one: the harvest has begun.

They have harvested three waves of people in one go:

Retail investors making markets, LPs drained;

Retail investors inflating volumes, fees fed to the project team;

Retail investors holding coins, losing heavily after buying at high prices.

Don't forget, the big players are also shorting contracts; you're gambling, they're collecting money.

Why suddenly dump the prices? It's simple:

The Alpha incentives can't be played anymore, no one is inflating volumes, the project can't earn fees, so they choose to harvest and go home for the New Year.

How can you make money trading coins? You’re slower on information, have less resources, and weaker capital.

The project team and big players have scripts, and you can't even see the beginning.

Don't try to "deduce insider information from coin prices"; that's the biggest illusion for retail investors.

The market has only one real indicator: sentiment.

Only BTC can rise, altcoins have no one to take over, and the big players won't pull them up.

Don't talk about changing big players, lowering interest rates, or good news; if no one buys after a pull-up, it's all in vain.

Currently, big funds only trade crypto concept stocks:

Some buy ETH, and the company stock price skyrockets; some buy SOL, also for stock speculation.

Hoarding coins is fake, trading stocks is real; "replicating micro-strategies" is the script.

Final reminder: Don't misuse "cold wallets."

Once connected to the internet, it's no longer a cold wallet.

A cold wallet must be: never connected to the internet + generated on a dedicated machine + never reused.

With significant assets, details must be precise.

Use separate wallets: cold for hoarding coins, hot for operations, and add a hardware wallet for transit.

In summary:

While you're still pondering news, the big players have already cashed out.

If you trade coins without considering sentiment, just wait to be harvested by it.

In the next market cycle, only those who survive will qualify to make money.
