BTC is now stuck around 68,000 swinging nearby, with minor 24-hour fluctuations of around 1% (depending on which second you catch it), and the weekly trend is still heading down. This market is really hard to describe - upside moves lack volume, downside probes don't collapse either, just grinding sideways in the 67k-70k range with direction nearly impossible to predict, enough to make you pull your hair out 😅
Recent developments:
1. On the Middle East geopolitical front, Trump issued ultimatums to Iran (48-hour deadline), oil prices spiked, inflation expectations picked up again, and the DXY

If survival is merely about filling our stomachs, then most of us are being swept up by consumerism.

The hardest part about persisting in doing one thing is:
Unless it's directly tied to your wallet/survival,
even the purest hobby, once monetization seems hopeless,
your passion will likely cool down within 3 months.😅

Everyone thinks that as long as you get the big picture right, trading crypto is easy.
But in reality, not many people can actually get the big picture right.
For example, in 2022, a bunch of people still thought the bull market hadn't ended,
and similarly now, there are quite a few people who believe 2026 will be a bull market.

This kind of market doesn't require guessing the top. Just stick to the plan: don't buy when it's going up, do dollar-cost averaging when it's going down, and you won't lose. #btc

This should be a major rebound, a direct bull run isn't very likely.
But the probability of reaching above 80K is still quite substantial. #btc

I really miss the crypto space before 2021...
New people flooded in like tidal waves,
FOMO screams everywhere, whitepapers in celebration mode,
everyone felt like they'd grabbed the ticket to change their destiny,
the air was thick with dreams and the smell of getting rich quick.
The crypto space back then was full of vitality.
But now?
Narratives decay rapidly, liquidity dries up,
newcomers basically just come in as cannon fodder to extend the game.
That era when everyone dared to dream,
truly, it's gone forever and never coming back.😔

# Will the Next Bull Market Have an Altseason?
I'll be direct: No, it won't. It will never happen again.
The classic story of "BTC rallies → capital spillover → altcoins surge together" has been completely broken.
There are three reasons:
1. **Institutional/ETF capital only recognizes BTC** (or only compliant blue-chip projects) and fundamentally won't overflow to small-cap coins;
2. **Liquidity is highly concentrated**, narratives are fragmented, and rotations happen extremely fast—yesterday's hot topic is dead today;
3. **Crypto is becoming like China's A-share market**: The big index (BTC)

Before I had creator earnings enabled, I'd see people sharing they made several thousand dollars a month, and I felt pretty anxious about it.
After I enabled it, I actually make less than $100 a month. It was pretty demystifying.
I'm not cut out for this kind of work anyway. Chasing views by posting garbage content and creating divisive topics like gender wars, anti-country sentiment—it's too easy to get caught up in it yourself, and it ends up affecting your mental health.
That would be counterproductive!

It looks like earning X creator revenue is still quite challenging. I saw a lot of people showing off Musk's salary recently, and I finally managed to enable it, but I haven't earned a single penny. 🥹

When does Musk get paid today? It's my first time receiving a salary, and I'm a bit excited.

It feels like once you pass 30, time starts to fly by.
In my twenties, I was full of anticipation for the future every day, feeling that aging was far away, and I was motivated about many things.
After turning 30, many of my interests began to fade.
It's mainly a change in mindset.
You must learn to adjust your mindset and rekindle your passion for life❤️‍🔥, or you'll easily become exhausted!

This market situation is really hard to describe, it can't go up, but it can't go down either. It's just staying flat. But I always feel that, at this point in the current bear market, there are no more calls for zero or extremely pessimistic sentiments. Maybe this is a sign of the maturity of the crypto market. #btc #eth

There is clearly money in the wallet, so why does it say insufficient balance when making a payment? Does anyone understand?

I have a sister who is a flight attendant, maybe an air hostess. Her mom initially introduced her to a man who is over ten years older than her, remarried, and has a child. At first, everyone thought she was at a disadvantage, but now that they see this man is very wealthy, everyone thinks she made the right choice. Haha.
What can I say, actually this sister herself has a pretty good job, and her flight attendant salary is high. But she definitely wasn't as wealthy as she is now. She has already quit her job and is now a full-time housewife.
They just bought a house worth 5 million RMB outrigh
