This is really good data about the investing game, and it looks like smart money knows it best.
During the Dot-com bubble and GFC 2008 era, active trading funds accounted for 80% of all funds.
But as time went by, they realized that beating the market is almost impossible and only a handful of people can do that.
This is reflected in the passive fund portion rising all the way to now almost 60%, with active traders at only 41%.
So, let this data sink in. Even smart money, funds, and asset managers with all their resources and Bloomberg terminals still think it's tough to beat the market.

The Bridge Between Traditional Finance and Crypto Markets — A New Era of Trading Intelligence
In today’s rapidly evolving financial ecosystem, the line between Traditional Finance (TradFi) and Decentralized Finance (DeFi) is no longer a barrier — it is becoming a bridge.

This is not just a trading event.
This is a real-time battlefield of market intelligence.

Actually, looking back to the year CZ sold his house and went all in on BTC
It was really courageous. The hard part wasn't whether he believed in it or not
The hard part was that at that time, there wasn't a group of believers supporting him
No diamond hands, no HODL, no leader
These words all appeared later
And only because someone made that kind of decision first
At that moment, he could only rely on himself

NVDA at $222. Tomorrow Changes Everything.
Monday closed at $222.32, down 1.33% . A $5.38 trillion market cap holding its breath. The most important earnings print of the year lands Wednesday after the bell, and the setup is already loaded.
🔹 The Numbers Wall Street Demands
Consensus revenue sits at $78.8 billion, up 77% year-over-year . Goldman Sachs whispers $80 billion . Morgan Stanley raised to $79.26 billion and lifted its target to $285 . UBS expects $81 billion with Q2 guidance of $90-91 billion .
The bar is already above NVIDIA's own $78 billion guidance . A simple beat is not enough

🚨 Take a moment… the markets are bleeding and everything is filled with red 📉
👀 But take a look at EGY…
💎 While many currencies are collapsing under market pressure, EGY continues to show resilience and strength that attract attention.
🔥 Sometimes amidst chaos and fear… the greatest stories begin to emerge.
⏳ Don’t rush to judgment… just watch what’s happening here. 🚀

$DOGE
Short
Entry: $0.103 — $0.105
SL: $0.108
Targets: $0.098 → $0.092
DOGE is struggling to hold momentum after the recent bounce while sellers continue defending local resistance. Structure still looks weak near current levels.
If BTC remains under pressure, downside continuation becomes likely.
Playing rejection setup, not prediction.

Once again, being manipulated by Sister Lin! Short at the high of 568! This afternoon, Sister Lin provided a very clear reason for the short. Now, ZEC's trend has reached an uncontrollable point, entirely driven by the market maker's mood, with both bulls and bears exploding. Currently, the only trend after being pushed back up to a high is to continue breaking down and closing long positions! Tomorrow is May 20th, Sister Lin's first take-profit is also on May 20th, and then she will wait quietly for the market maker to dump the price down to 520!

Tough time to be a risk on asset heading forward if these continue to pump

This is a Wyckoff distribution pattern
Strong uptrend, slows down a little, starts ranging.
Then I would have expected one last push to the upside, but it turns out we're slowly grinding down.
To sum up, this often signals the uptrend is over, while we can expect a hard crash back down.
