Night of New Highs, Who Is Awake?

At 2 a.m., Bitcoin broke through $74,000.

The moment the news popped up, countless screens lit up. Some jumped out of bed, some looked up from their desks, others squatted in the bathroom for half an hour, reluctant to come out.

$74,050, a new high in nearly a month. This number is like a flare, illuminating the entire crypto market.

But under the same flare, there are completely different people.

Some are excited. He was the trader who added to his position last week at $68,000; his account's unrealized gains are enough to pay three months' rent. He screenshot and sent it to the group, with only two words: “Thanks.” No emoji, no exclamation mark, but everyone can feel the weight behind those two words.

Some are anxious. He is a swing trader who liquidated his position three days ago, planning to re-enter after a pullback, but the market kept heading north. He looks at the $74,050 level, his finger hovering over the buy button, unable to press it or let it go. Missing out hurts more than losing money.

Some are calm. He is an experienced player who has gone through two bull and bear cycles, still holding assets he bought three years ago at $30,000. $74,050 is just a waypoint to him, not the end. He glances at it, turns off the screen, and continues sleeping. He has to go to work tomorrow.

Some are numb. He is a newcomer who just entered the scene three days ago, bought $500 worth of Bitcoin, doesn’t understand candlestick charts, and doesn’t care about news. He just heard from friends that this can make money, so he bought it. When it goes up, he’s happy; when it goes down, he doesn’t understand why.

And some are busy writing articles. He types the number $74,050 into the title, begins to review today’s news: what Kevin Waugh’s nomination means, how the Senate vote will affect the geopolitical situation, how long the rate cut expectations can support the market. He knows that when he wakes up tomorrow, some will read carefully, some will skip directly. But he still writes, because this is his way of understanding the market.

Night of New Highs, some celebrate wildly, some feel anxious, some are calm, some numb, some awake.
