Everyone is waiting for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates, as if this is the universal key to a market surge. But to be honest, this idea is too naive. Rate cuts never come as a sudden windfall; instead, they happen gradually, like boiling a frog in warm water.

Just look at the situation now:

Over $7 trillion is still lying in money market funds, and these institutions are more astute than anyone else.

On-chain data has already shown that smart money is slowly entering the market.

But retail investors are still foolishly waiting for "official signals"; by the time they react, they might miss the opportunity altogether.

Real opportunities always start when most people are still unaware. Once CNBC starts reporting on a daily basis about the cryptocurrency bull market, it’s basically time to consider making an exit. At this critical juncture, rather than fixating on the Federal Reserve every day, it would be better to thoroughly research which sectors truly have potential.

Do you know what’s the most ironic? The last bull market was just like this; institutions had already accumulated at the bottom, and when the rate cuts finally arrived, they started to slowly offload their positions. The market is so quiet right now that it could very well be the calm before the storm. But honestly, times like this are often the hardest to endure because you have to fight against your own fears and doubts.
