There is a profound truth in the field of investment: the choice is often more critical than the effort put in.

Looking back at the situation in the secondary market, many investors are either suffering losses or are on the path to losses. The primary market is also highly volatile, with occasional profits and losses, and in the long run, most investors have still not achieved satisfactory returns.

However, there are only three types of core assets that have consistently performed strongly in the market: Bitcoin, the U.S. stock market, and gold. If investors had focused on Bitcoin investment two years ago, they might have already achieved a return of 3-5 times.

What is even more thought-provoking is that many market operators, after profiting from altcoins, will also turn to invest in Bitcoin. Recently, several altcoin projects such as MUSK, DEXE, and HMSTR have encountered problems one after another, and market liquidity is increasingly shrinking, mainly because savvy funds are continuously flowing towards mainstream assets.

In the context of persistently high global interest rates and ongoing geopolitical conflicts, global economic uncertainty has increased, leading to a concentration of funds in the three major safe-haven assets: Bitcoin, US stocks, and gold.

Market cycles often follow similar patterns: capital first accumulates chips at low prices, and then, driven by expectations of interest rate cuts and positive publicity, resells them at high prices to ordinary investors, creating a cyclical market rhythm.

Understanding this investment principle may help investors make wiser decisions in a complex and ever-changing market environment.
