The current market situation is a bit like a startled bird; any macro news can trigger intense volatility. The smartest move at this point is to strictly control positions and leverage, avoid rushing to buy the dip or chase highs, and wait until key economic data and geopolitical events are truly settled. Only after the market provides a clear direction should you take action.

Speaking of price trends, Bitcoin and Ethereum have recently shown a high correlation with the international trade situation. If trade frictions between the US and multiple European countries continue to escalate, the confrontational stance will be difficult to ease. Under this uncertainty pressure, the rebound space for crypto assets will be severely limited. As long as neither side signals de-escalation, the probability of trend reversal remains quite low.

The data shows that this wave is indeed unreasonable. Let's wait and see; anyway, the historical lows haven't appeared yet... However, miners are taking too much, and Gas fees will eventually collapse. If we look at it hourly... trade frictions can't be suppressed at all. A rebound is inevitable sooner or later, but the key is when? What's going on with this mechanism? When macro moves, the coin twitches along. Have you observed any patterns, everyone? Let's wait a bit longer, until the dust settles... patiently waiting.

The current market is like Schrödinger's price movement—who knows what news will drop next second.

My goodness, the market is trembling with macro factors. This time, I really need to hold back and let go of leverage early. Wait, is the trade friction suppressing the rebound potential? It feels like this round of market movement is about to be trapped by this thing. Honestly, the hardest part now isn't bottom-fishing but resisting the urge to act. The itch to trade is really strong.

Really, this wave of the market was too easy to scare. One news event and it plummeted. I have already reduced my holdings significantly, just waiting for the market to settle down. The trade war probably will drag on for a while. The short-term rebound space has indeed been squeezed tightly, so it's better to stay steady. Bottom fishing? Who dares to do that now? It feels like every time, I hit a landmine. Instead of messing around blindly, it's better to hold onto spot holdings and sleep. This point really isn't the time to play with leverage. Honestly, Bitcoin is following the relations between major countries, and it feels more like stocks... With geopolitical tensions unclear, I am holding half my position and waiting for signals. Better to miss out than to act recklessly. Still the same advice: don't move when you're uncertain. Too many people are trapped at high levels.

Wait a moment, the metaphor of a frightened bird is perfect. It is indeed like this now, any slight movement causes a drop. However, I still think some people won't be able to resist buying the dip, after all, there are too many greedy people in this circle.

Looking at this wave of market activity, it does seem a bit nerve-wracking, but based on my mining pool data, the difficulty adjustment cycle actually presents an opportunity. In this kind of uncertainty, it's better to focus on hash rate profitability rather than blindly chasing price rallies. --- Honestly, trade friction can indeed suppress rebounds, but historical data shows that after geopolitical events, the growth of hash rate networks tends to be more stable. Right now, bottoming out on hash rate is smarter than bottoming out on coin prices. --- Strictly controlling leverage is correct. My strategy is fixed investment and improving TH/s efficiency, which is better than timing the market. Over the past three months, the cost of hash rate has actually become cheaper. --- Waiting for the dust to settle is too passive; it's better to take proactive steps to shorten the investment return cycle. Macro environmental policies are actually friends to miners. --- While there are no signs of easing between the parties, the price suppression cannot hinder the long-term growth logic of hash rate demand—that's what I focus on. --- Interesting data: over the past 30 days, my hash rate profitability ratio has actually improved, indicating that the market is re-pricing risk.
