PayFi suddenly surges, and I realize the crypto world is starting to "spin new stories" again!
In every bull market, the market needs a new narrative.
Last cycle was MEME, this cycle suddenly belongs to PayFi. In just 24 hours, the sector's increase directly hit 3.26%, and many crypto friends woke up to find: their wallets hadn't changed, but their faith had risen first.
Why is capital suddenly focusing on PayFi?
Because what the market needs most now isn't concepts, but "real use cases."
In the past, many projects shouted about revolutionary finance every day, but only the project team had users. Now, capital is beginning to return to practical logic: whoever can truly do payments, cross-border transactions, and consumption has the chance to become the next hot spot.
And recently, international situations are also adding fuel to the fire. The deadlock between the US and Iran has increased risk-averse sentiment, while Trump's visit to China gives the market a sense of "relationship easing." Funds are both afraid of risks and frantically searching for highly elastic assets.
So, the classic script for altcoins has arrived:
BTC sets the stage, altcoins perform.
But I want to remind everyone: the most dangerous part of altcoin season is when everyone thinks "it will keep rising."
Real experts are already starting to switch positions.
My approach is:
Keep a large position in BTC, and quietly accumulate PayFi, AI, and RWA. Especially RWA, I believe it will be repeatedly story-driven later because traditional capital is most receptive to this direction.
As for chasing the rise?
You can chase, but don’t chase to the top of your head.
The most expensive lesson in crypto has never been losses, but the self-delusion after buying at high prices. #山寨币资金回流
