The biggest feeling from watching the market these days isn't how cryptocurrencies are moving, but that the "invisible wrench" of interest rates is still turning. When interest rates are higher, everyone's risk appetite feels like it's being drained of power. I'm also very pragmatic: positions are shrinking, leverage dares not be touched, and I'd rather hold some cash and wait for the sentiment to return. To put it simply, when macro tightens, even if the on-chain activity remains lively, it can easily turn into a "cold and quiet place with high transaction fees."

By the way, I want to complain that now a bunch of on-chain data tools and tags are being called lagging and potentially misleading... I believe it, after all, what you see as "smart money" might just be what someone else wants you to see. Anyway, I now pay more attention to how much drawdown I can handle, look at fewer "magical charts," listen more to my heartbeat, and type on the keyboard more slowly. What about you?
