Recently, I have observed significant changes in the investment strategies of Bitcoin holders. Traditionally, many long-term BTC investors tended to store their coins in cold wallets, patiently waiting for a bull run to arrive. This "coin hoarding inertia" used to be a common consensus within the encryption community.
However, a new trend is emerging recently. More and more investors are starting to adopt new tools to manage their BTC assets. This shift is not driven by the pursuit of high returns, but because it offers an intermediate option between conservative holding and high-risk speculation, making holding BTC a continuous feedback experience.
An investor who has held 3 BTC for five years shared his new experience with me. He said: "In the past, I only focused on price fluctuations when checking my wallet, but now I look at my earnings details every day. The stablecoin earned today is enough to buy a cup of coffee, and this month's earnings can even cover my rent. This feeling of having small gains every day is more reassuring than waiting for the bull run to come in a few years." This is the key point: stable small earnings have replaced uncertain large fluctuations, transforming BTC from a purely future asset into a cash flow tool that can be used right now.
Interestingly, this behavioral shift is forming a virtuous cycle. Users are reinvesting their earnings in BTC, slowly achieving stable accumulation. Some investors started with 1 BTC, and after a year of reinvesting their earnings, they increased to 1.06 BTC. Although the growth may not be as significant as in a bull run, this steady growth model has actually strengthened their willingness to hold onto and even increase their BTC holdings in the long term.
The real impact of this new trend lies not in competing for shares of the traditional financial market, but in activating the previously static BTC assets. It provides Bitcoin holders with a new way of thinking, shifting from passively waiting for appreciation to actively managing assets, which could have a profound impact on the dynamics of the entire encryption currency market.

Is there really someone who would use BTC to play for profits?
