#数字资产代币化浪潮 $BTC



Numbers don’t lie: Is the Bitcoin bubble cycle really shrinking?

Opening the historical ledger, every switch between bull and bear markets feels like a scene being replayed.

In 2017, during that surge, BTC reached the peak of $19,800, and then fell to $3,100 over the course of 14 months. During that era, tens of thousands of tokens danced in the market. By 2021, the price touched a new height of $69,000, only to drop back to $15,500 in the winter. This time, the number of coins that can soar? Probably just over a thousand.

The more exaggerated part is yet to come. Last year's market, the number of tokens that actually made it out may not even reach a hundred - as for the rest? Most have quietly disappeared without making a splash.

What logic is hidden behind this? To put it bluntly, the bubble in the cryptocurrency market is more naked than in traditional stock markets. Those players standing behind the table coordinate their pump actions with the bloodbath in the futures market. Buying low and selling high is just a beginner's move; the real source of profit? It comes from repeatedly harvesting the leveraged positions of retail investors.

At the end of last year, when BTC surged to 108,000, there were predictions everywhere for 130,000 and 150,000. Now someone is calling for 170,000? I suggest you take these numbers with a 30% discount. Remember one thing: institutions are never here to tell you stories, but rather to see the real money in your pocket.

The bubble is shrinking, and the window for making money is also narrowing. If you have experienced the complete cycles of the previous two rounds, doesn't it feel this time that it's harder to make money than before?

Data speaks for itself, the 170,000 that set is directly viewed at an 80% discount. I clearly saw the wave of leverage liquidation at 108,000 last year, how accurately the retail investor liquidation threshold was triggered. --- In this wave, the ones that can truly survive may just be a couple of double-digit tokens, the rest dropping to zero is just a matter of time. --- Institutions pump combined with contract bloodbath, this set of actions is the same every round. As the collateral ratio rises, a group of people is directly cleared out. --- Money is indeed harder to make than in the previous two rounds, high leverage is suicide, yet there are still people rushing in. --- 130,000, 150,000, these numbers are all stories, go to hell. My risk control red line is set in stone, if the leverage ratio exceeds 3 times, I will close the position first. --- The wave of liquidation tide at the end of last year saw explosive growth in lending positions. Now this cycle is repeating again.

The more sellers there are, the harder it is for buyers to make a profit, this time really feels different. They say history repeats itself, but every time the script seems to simplify, the retail investor's role is getting smaller. Last year, over a hundred coins could still make a move, but now it’s difficult to even find ten, this is ridiculous. 170,000? I’ll just cut that in half and watch the market, who still believes these predictions? The institutions have already made their stance clear. Those who have gone through two rounds know that the window period is really shrinking, the money has decreased, and operations have become more difficult. Where will this fall go? Who dares to say? Anyway, I don’t trust anyone's predictions. Although my coins haven't dropped to zero, they're pretty much the same; let's take it step by step.

Ha, that really hits hard, this wave really feels like they are playing people for suckers even more ruthlessly. Those institutions always use this trick, each one predicting numbers higher than rockets, then they turn around and start dumping to play people for suckers. I was trapped back in 2017, and now seeing these calls for 170,000 just makes me want to laugh. A 30% discount? I wouldn't even believe it if it were 50% off. Seriously, the window for making money in the crypto world is getting narrower and narrower. In the last two rounds, you could just lay back and win, but this time you have to watch the market until you're bald. I still have a few that are going to drop to zero, but let's not mention that.

The retail investors have long deleted the app for the shitcoin, it's really just the institutions dancing there.

If you want to know the price, just look at the 30% discount. Those institutional people just want to play people for suckers with our leverage. --- I heard someone shouting 170k again, I’m cracking up... They said the same thing at 130k, and now they’re still here spinning stories. --- It’s true, the era of having over a thousand coins that can soar is over, now there aren’t even a hundred. That pile of junk coins in my hands has long been doomed. --- Is it harder to make money than before? Not just that, it feels like this round is all institutions playing people for suckers. --- From 2017 until now, each cycle is more intense than the last, but suckers always learn their lessons the hard way.
