Retail investors really haven't moved yet, and they are more cautious than you think.
Looking at this wave of $BTC market, many are calling for "全民入场" (nationwide entry). But upon closer inspection, the participation of ordinary investors isn't that high.
The market has surged so strongly, are there many people around you trading cryptocurrencies? How many people in your circle are seriously discussing Bitcoin? I actually see more people watching on the sidelines. That's how retail investors are — without seeing real profits, they still don't dare to put real money in.
Those big influencers keep saying "the opportunity to enter is here," but retail investors have their own yardstick. People who have been burned before now hesitate at any price increase. Information gaps, psychological readiness, risk tolerance — these factors block many potential buyers.
In other words, the market is still far from the moment when retail investors experience true FOMO. Want to increase your holdings of $BTC? First, understand your risk tolerance clearly, then decide. The market has taught us the most — don't let emotions take over.

Honestly, the big influencers are all bluffing; retail investors are truly afraid of being wiped out.

That's right, I was cut once before. Now that I see the increase is even higher, I have to think it over again. That's the price of being educated.

Haha, you're right. The people around me are just watching the show; no one is really getting on board.
