The market has reached a moment of high alert. After approaching $100,000, Bitcoin may experience a deep correction, expected to fall to around 40,000 yuan. The situation with Ethereum is similar, with a potential decline back to the 1200 to 1800 range.

There are only a few types of people who see a bull market. Some are trying to attract you to enter the market for liquidity; some are blinded by the prosperity of the altcoin season; and there is one most despicable type—those who make short-term profits and then turn around to bearish, pulling others in and then dumping.

Two paths lie ahead: one is to fantasize about the coin price soaring to sky-high levels, which will always remain just a dream; the other is to stay vigilant at all times, reserve risk awareness, and stay close to reality. I choose the latter. Living in the real world is better than hiding in utopian fantasies, as it allows for better handling of the market's true fluctuations.

Some say that if I don't get rich in the bull market, then the bull market isn't coming. This logic is fundamentally flawed. I stick to spot trading strategies, holding BTC and ETH, but I never rely on fantasies to trade. Being bearish is easier to survive in this game than blindly bullish.

BTC-3.24%

ETH-3.3%

That's quite right, those who shouted for a rise should have been proven wrong long ago. --- The probability of a crash after 100,000 dollars is indeed high, and I am also waiting for this wave. --- The most annoying are those who make profits and then turn around to call a bear market, really despicable. --- Steady spot trading, leverage is just asking for death. --- Fantasies are just fantasies; surviving is the real win. --- Is there anyone copying the 40,000 bottom? --- The copycat season is just a big trap. Don't touch things you don't understand. --- Risk awareness is extremely valuable. --- Holding spot is the right move; don't think about getting rich overnight. --- People who are bearish often live the longest; this is real experience. --- Honestly, the tricks to absorbing liquidity are really hard to defend against.

Basically, it's just being cowardly. People say this at every top, and then they all get proven wrong.

Haha, you're right, those who hype it up every day are really out of line. --- I'm actually waiting at the 40,000 price level, just afraid of another sudden surge. --- The final winners are the spot traders, while leveraged players lose everything. This game is so realistic. --- I'm not pessimistic, just tired of the spectacle of the little guys being harvested. --- There are too few who are sober-minded; most are still dreaming. --- Stop-loss is more valuable than dreams, really. --- I'll just quietly watch them go from 10,000 to 1,000,000.

This guy is right. Those signal providers are really annoying. They run after making a profit and drag others down with them. Back when it was $100,000, it was time to reduce positions. Now, no matter what you say, it's too late. I'm also a hodler, but I definitely don't have a gambler's mentality. You need to have that self-awareness.

This guy is not wrong, just too pessimistic. I also hold spot positions, but I don't think it will drop to 40,000; a 20-30% correction at most. Basically, it's a mindset issue; don't believe all these predictions. Sure, some people are scamming others, but there are also really people making money in the bull market. The key is to have a sense of proportion. If this wave really gets cut in half, isn't that an opportunity to buy the dip? I've seen a lot of people talking down and dumping in the telegram groups every day. But on the other hand, staying vigilant is definitely the right move; just don't get scared and panic sell everything at the top.

I've heard this set of words too many times, and all the nice-sounding talk is just to stabilize retail investors... Honestly, who can really time the market precisely? It still comes down to luck. Holding spot assets is indeed stable, but don't be overconfident; everything can change in the next second. Those who criticize and then turn around to go long are truly damnable; I've seen this trick too many times. Instead of worrying about ups and downs, it's better to stay true to your original intention—just don't go all in.

Why are you starting to talk down again? I'm already tired of this routine. --- If 40000 were really going to fall like this, I would mortgage my house to buy the dip. --- If it were reliable, I wouldn't be shouting online; I would have made a fortune quietly long ago. --- Even holding spot assets shouldn't be so pessimistic. What's going on? --- It sounds good, but actually, they just want us to sell at a loss and take over. --- Let's wait until it really drops to that price; it's too early to say now. --- Who these days isn't secretly accumulating coins while expecting a drop? Stop pretending. --- If your predictions are so accurate, why not trade futures? You have to come here to warn us. --- Deep adjustments are just deep adjustments; anyway, I can't lose the coins I hold.

Here we go again, dropping to 40,000 and still having to buy the dip. It will be another story then.
