The crypto market has been shrouded in pessimism for nearly two months. Although there were a few days of neutrality in between, essentially the entire quarter has been dominated by a sense of despair.

But this actually reflects a fundamental truth—the market has its rhythm, and so do emotions. The mechanism behind this is simple: the longer the panic persists, the more thorough the market’s chip exchange becomes. Those who are not confident in $BTC or $ETH have already been shaken out during some sharp decline.

By now, the ones who should have exited already have. The remaining are mainly two types—one chooses to surrender and lie flat, and the other consists of veteran players who have been holding tight since early on. Trading volume has clearly shrunk, market activity has decreased, and genuine capital inflow is limited.

This is precisely a critical juncture. Once liquidity is re-injected, just a few sizable buy orders can push the price up. The turning point of sentiment often happens at this moment—shifting from fear to mild optimism, then heating up to greed, and then falling again. Repeated cycles like this form what we call trends and cycles.

So don’t worry about whether today’s K-line is green or red. Maybe next week, another bearish candle will drop the price again, and you can just hold on a bit longer. When the bull market arrives in two months, all these fluctuations will just be minor episodes. The key is not to chase quick profits, but to survive until the last smile.

If you’ve thought it through, the operation is actually simple—find the assets you believe in, then lay low, and give yourself a promise: hold steady, don’t move.
