Is the crypto market warming up? Investors flocked in $3.4 billion in one week, with Bitcoin dominating.
According to the latest report released by cryptocurrency asset management company CoinShares, last week digital asset investment products experienced a strong capital inflow, attracting as much as $3.4 billion, marking the third-best single-week performance in history.
This data is particularly striking after several weeks of capital outflows. In the previous week, the cumulative inflow from the beginning of the year was only $171 million, almost stagnant.
Bitcoin is the biggest winner, accounting for over 90% of inflows.
In this wave of capital inflow, Bitcoin has become the absolute main character, accounting for 93% of the total inflows. After concerns about the U.S. 'reciprocal' tariff policy eased, investors flocked to spot Bitcoin ETFs, driving capital back in. Meanwhile, Bitcoin's price briefly broke through the $95,000 mark.
When the alpaca ALPACA was released on the 25th, it was only 0.078, now it is 0.25, unfortunately, I didn't take action.
Last night I went in and paid the funding rate, which can be considered as a small gain; currently, the funding rate is settled every hour, and it occasionally reaches 2%. With a position of $20,000, the hourly funding cost can amount to $400.
The operations by the market makers should be similar to the previous bnx, maintaining high prices until delisting, and forcefully closing the unliquidated short positions at the high prices before delisting. They can still earn high funding fees every hour.
Today, the data of Binance's 'free money' in April has gone viral:
One account gives away more than 1000 USD a month, with a little effort, it's easy to make money.
A family of three means 3000 dollars, which is enough for an ordinary person's monthly salary.
Next, everyone will start to compete for points, 65 is just the beginning, and it wouldn't be surprising to see 89 or even 90 later, so take the opportunity to earn more points.
Bitcoin has returned to the 93,000 range today, leading altcoins through a small pullback. There are two questions for many: first, is this the peak? Second, will it continue to push towards 100,000 in the future?
Regarding the first question, whether this is the peak, it can only be said that it may be a temporary peak. It was previously mentioned that Bitcoin's breakthrough here should be considered a true breakthrough. As long as it continues to push upwards, it is still advisable to get on board. During the pullback phase, it is best to observe and not short.
As for the second question, whether it will continue to push towards 100,000, I maintain my previous view. The current market can be seen as a relatively strong rebound. As long as it does not continue to converge and break through 95,000, it is believed that the rebound has mostly ended. If it converges and continues to break upwards, then there is a possibility of reaching 100,000.
For ordinary people, there are 6 hurdles in wealth accumulation
Having 10,000, 100,000, and 300,000 in savings is three small hurdles
1,000,000, 3,000,000, and 30,000,000 are three major hurdles
Very few people can manage to save 10,000 without changing their phone, 100,000 without buying a car, 300,000 without investing, 1,000,000 without lending money to others, 3,000,000 without engaging in reckless behavior, and 30,000,000 without leaking wealth
Especially during the current special economic cycle, many people become more anxious when they can't make money, and as a result, lose money even faster
Many people do not understand that the essence of wealth is preservation, not speculation. You can win a hundred times in gambling, but as soon as you lose once, you reset to zero. Therefore, learning to preserve wealth is the first step in financial management
Many people, when they have a little money, just want to spend it. When they see something within their reach, they want it, eagerly wanting to experience the joy of spending money, regardless of whether the item is necessary, they no longer consider it. They must spend their idle money on frivolous things
Once they save 10,000, they want to change their phone. When they save 100,000, they want to buy a spicy fish head to shield from the wind and rain. When they save 300,000, they want to buy an entry-level BBA or invest in funds and stocks as assets. Once they save 1,000,000, suddenly people around them start asking to borrow money. When they save 3,000,000, they start to indulge—either getting involved in relationships or various circles. When they reach 30,000,000, a big brother will actively want to take them to make big money, with returns being calculated in multiples, only to finally discover it’s a big pit
Therefore, the way ordinary people preserve wealth is not about not spending money, nor is it about not investing, but rather about not spending what can be spared, not investing in what they do not understand, and holding back when they just start to understand. Money that is not spent is still money; once money is spent, it may no longer be anything. Those capable of making big money are a minority, and the opportunities to earn big money are rare. The probability of winning is largely based on accumulation, not gambling. Thus, for most ordinary people, wealth accumulation relies on preservation, creating incremental growth while safeguarding the existing amount.
Investment requires a bit of "contrarian thinking".
The cruel law of wealth distribution is always repeating: ten people enter the game, one reaches the top, eight fail, and one maintains the status quo. When your judgment highly aligns with market consensus, you often become prey to the "herd effect"—remember, opportunities are always hidden in divergences.
Market sentiment is the most honest contrarian indicator: when retail investors start to frantically chase prices, they are often lifting the burden for smart money; and when fear suffocates the majority, real opportunities are breaking ground. Those moments that make your palms sweat and your heart race are likely the market handing you an entry ticket.
The key is to distinguish "contrarian" from "counter-trend": the former is independent thinking, while the latter is blind opposition. True contrarianism is a calm decision based on deep understanding.
The market has been doing well these past couple of days, and the group friends have started calling for a bull run again, but I still believe this market is just a major rebound and don't think it can directly reach 100,000 here.
However, many people, like me, who haven't jumped in yet are worried about missing out. My thought is that if the big coin is going to break through, then choose to enter and follow; if it hasn't broken through, then choose to wait and see, but don't short sell. It's easier to manage the rhythm this way.
ALPACA, due to its delisting at 5.2, has seen a surge in trading volume, with 24-hour trading volume skyrocketing to 1.2 billion dollars, and the fee has also maxed out at -2%. The fluctuations are over 50 points, and I'm tempted to take a bite at this too. Let's see if there's an opportunity to trade today.

To further promote the development of the Alpha project ecosystem, Binance officially launches the Alpha Point scoring system to evaluate user activity in the Binance App and Binance Wallet (non-custodial wallet) ecosystem. This scoring system will serve as an important basis for future participation in activities such as Binance Wallet TGE (Token Generation Event) and various Alpha token airdrops and presales. 📍 Access Methods Users can access the Alpha Point page through the following two paths:
Today, the top losers are Pump and Hyper, these once-popular coins that were gaining momentum just a few days ago, are now plummeting even worse than those that have been delisted.
You thought the bull market was still on, but in fact, it’s just a run-up before the high-altitude dive.
In the current market, it’s not about who understands the blockchain best or who can see the furthest, but rather — who can run the fastest, who has 'no faith'.
Those who talk about faith have long been buried in the graveyard of altcoins, with the grass on their graves worth more than their market cap.
The ones who truly make money are often not the most knowledgeable, but the most cold-blooded.
When it’s time to throw away, just throw away; when it’s time to leave, just leave, without any nostalgia, without any grand vision.
The less one talks about faith, the closer they get to 'the essence of the market'.
It’s not that the market has changed, it’s that you haven’t woken up.
Yesterday I added Trump to my watchlist but didn't act, then saw Lafite in the evening, rushed to buy pnut, and then got cut, feeling exhausted.
I suffered from FOMO again; now many altcoins are being pumped not for you to buy, but to dump on you. Look at the ACT below, so don’t trade emotionally. Just because you see many altcoins rising doesn’t mean you should feel like you missed out.
