Bitcoin stabilizing has significantly improved market sentiment. The most direct signal is that BTC market share is beginning to face resistance, which often indicates that funds are shifting from pure safe-haven assets to chasing high-volatility returns — the rhythm of Bitcoin leading the way and altcoins following is coming. Currently, the hot topics are polarized: on one side, the MEME sector within the Solana and Base ecosystems remains popular, and these tokens have become the best barometer of retail investor sentiment, indicating continuous inflows of off-chain funds. On the other side, high-performance public chains like SOL, SEI, and SUI are gathering strength, and they typically initiate short squeeze rallies during BTC sideways trading periods. In trading, the key is whether the ETH/BTC exchange rate can rebound. Once this ratio rises, Ethereum ecosystem's L2 and DeFi are expected to see a catch-up rally. However, weekend liquidity is relatively thin, so be cautious of major players creating liquidity gaps to shake out weak hands. Avoid chasing highs; strategic accumulation for the rebound is the right approach.

Belgium Welcomes New Progress!
