When everything pumps except Bitcoin, most people panic. But that's actually where the real edge lives. This pattern? It's textbook market behavior. The crowd chases what's already moving, flooding into altcoins and other assets while Bitcoin consolidates. They'll regret the timing later. That's how this game works—the real opportunities aren't obvious when you're standing in the middle of the hype. They show up when most traders are looking the wrong direction. If you understand this cycle, you're already ahead.

This is the real way for clear-headed people to play; while others are greedy, I observe and wait for the opportunity to scoop up bargains. --- It's the same old story again—altcoins take off while BTC is still in a daze? Laughable, the routine of cutting leeks over and over. --- Those in the know are all waiting; rushing in now is just feeding the fish. History always repeats itself in astonishing ways. --- Absolutely, Bitcoin's consolidation tests human nature the most... I just want to see who can resist chasing highs. --- Contrary operations are the way to make money; places where the crowd rushes in are often graves. I've long understood this logic. --- Wait, is this really a fake fall or a shakeout? Feels not that simple. --- Talking about cycles is easy, but when it comes to critical moments, FOMO will still get you. Only those who can laugh last are truly winners.

Laughing out loud, this is the modern version of Mr. Nanguo pretending to play the yu. Everyone is copying knockoffs, only I understand Bitcoin, right bro?

Hmm... It's the same explanation again, tired of hearing it every round, but indeed someone always falls into the trap each time. Wait, are you saying now is the time to stockpile Bitcoin? Or are you saying everyone else is wrong and only you are right? Sounds good, but when it really hits a loss, no one remembers these words. It's basically a gambling mentality—who can resist chasing highs? Contrarian thinking sounds appealing, but actually executing it... uh, is difficult. If this wave really reverses, I’ll believe you. Right now, anyone can tell a story.
