Bitcoin has recently experienced a significant surge, but the altcoin camp has held onto key support levels. The logic behind this is actually quite interesting—history always repeats itself. As long as Bitcoin stabilizes, funds will flow into smaller cryptocurrencies.
Looking at the overall market structure from a different perspective. The total market capitalization of the crypto space has been hovering around 3 trillion yuan for a whole year, with virtually zero growth over the past four years. But what about the traditional finance sector next door? It has grown by 50 trillion yuan during the same period. This comparison is enough to dispel many people's anxiety.
To be honest, the risks that truly existed over the past four years have been almost fully digested. Those retail investors who chased the high points in the last bull market are actually just stepping stones for the few who are still here today. The market is so cruel—someone has to exit for others to rise. Instead of worrying every day, it's better to keep a calm mindset and understand the rules of this game.

Bitcoin is stable, and small coins are rising. Does this trick still work now? I'm actually more concerned about the 50 trillion gap... The crypto world can't keep up.

Bitcoin stays stable while altcoins rise; I've seen this trick for four years, and it never gets old.

Hey, you're right. Retail investors are really just stepping stones. I've accepted it long ago, haha.

Oh my god, zero growth over these four years is truly a blow. The 50 trillion increase in traditional finance completely outpaces us by a few blocks.

It's the same narrative of "funds diversion" again. Theoretically, it should be feasible, but why am I still losing? It's just another useless innovation.

Altcoins are really resilient. Once Bitcoin stabilizes, the effect becomes evident. This move is clearly understood.

Hey, you're right. The retail investors' money lost in the bloodbath indeed flows to the institutions. This cycle is very clear to see.
