A phenomenon worth pondering: Berkshire Hathaway, controlled by Warren Buffett, is now sitting on $381.7 billion in cash, while its US stocks are continuously being sold off. This move is not just simple risk management—it’s more like telling a story to the market.
An established value investor holding cash without action, yet significantly selling stocks, suggests a logical behind this: the old system supported by US dollar credit may need to be re-priced. The existence of the crypto world in recent years essentially aims to create a new way of carrying value.
Why do assets like BTC and ETH attract more and more people? Simply put, everyone can see—that the credit foundation of the traditional financial system is being questioned.
What do you think about this? Is Buffett hinting at something, or is it just a strategic adjustment? Share your thoughts in the comments.

Cash is tightening, yet stocks are falling behind. What big move is this old man really playing?
---
$380 billion sitting idle—what does that mean? Either the market is about to crash, or they're waiting for the wind to blow in.
---
Buffett's approach is less about risk management and more like betting on a system overhaul.
---
I just want to know, what opportunity is he waiting for with so much cash in hand?
---
Major A-share investors say: I don't need to do anything; just watching Buffett is enough.
---
By the way, this logic also applies to crypto—it's all about questioning the old credit system.
---
Selling US stocks and hoarding cash—isn't that a question mark on the dollar system?
---
It's really just a "I don't understand" reaction to traditional finance.
---
Could this wave be considered a semi-signal of optimism for crypto? Although he probably doesn't think so.
---
Interestingly, Buffett's actions are indirectly promoting Web3.

Buffett's recent moves are indeed interesting. Having over 380 billion in cash just sitting idle while selling stocks—what kind of risk management is this... It feels like he's waiting for some big event.
Wait, could it be that the old man has also realized that traditional finance is about to collapse? Then why not just jump on the train and buy BTC directly? Isn't that contradictory? Haha.
Meme coins like PEPE are actually more honest than value investing; at least no one is deceiving you into thinking this is the future of finance.

Buffett's move, to put it simply, is betting on the collapse of the system. The dominance of cash actually reflects a distrust in the US dollar itself... This logical chain is so clever, perfectly illustrating the anxiety of traditional finance.

Buffett holding so much cash without moving, what does that mean... If you ask me, it's a bet on the system reshuffling itself.
This old man's move, I feel it explains the situation better than any statement.
The US dollar's credibility... someone should have questioned it long ago, we've been doing that all along.

Is Buffett's move this time a bet on the dollar weakening or is he really panicking? Honestly, I can't see through it.
That said, having over 380 billion in cash just sitting there is indeed a bit suspicious. But can crypto really withstand this?
ETH still looks promising over the past two years. PEPE, forget it, haha.
