The feeling of "dead silence" on the chain these days has returned again, with orders so thin they look like paper, and a little bit of trading can flip the floor. To put it plainly, when liquidity dries up, the word "bottom fishing" sounds cool, but in reality it’s more like reaching out in fog to touch a blade... My current principle is to survive first: keep enough cash/stablecoins as oxygen, and don’t stubbornly hold onto those without a narrative or where the community has dispersed, just wait patiently.
Plus, recently someone discussed how certain regions are tightening or loosening taxes and compliance measures, causing expectations for deposits and withdrawals to fluctuate. People become even more hesitant to act, and the mood "shuts down" even before prices do. I actually only focus on the old series I truly like, the kind I can sleep soundly even if it drops, buy less, and keep the flame of aesthetic appreciation alive. What about you?
