Last night, the financial world was a bit lively. Two pieces of news came one after another, one about a major player in traditional finance, and the other related to market liquidity. Together, they seem to tell the same story.



First, let's talk about Goldman Sachs. A figure was revealed in their 13F filing—$1.7 billion worth of Bitcoin ETF holdings. Although it was later confirmed that the actual size is in the tens of millions of dollars, the key point isn't the number itself, but the name. Goldman Sachs appearing in Bitcoin's institutional holdings symbolizes far more than the actual amount. The smartest group on Wall Street has already stepped into the spotlight through fully compliant channels.

Following that, a move by the Federal Reserve drew attention—injecting $105 billion of liquidity into the market overnight. Media described it as "the largest post-pandemic scale," which sounds astonishing, but in reality, it's a routine short-term adjustment and not a signal of massive easing. However, when these two events happen simultaneously, things get interesting.

Breaking down into three levels of change:

First, the institutional pass has been issued. Top investment banks betting on Bitcoin are directly giving the green light to other traditional funds. Second, the market's sensitivity to liquidity is increasing. The Fed's one hand tightening and the other loosening creates a balancing act that makes market nerves more tense. Third, Bitcoin's role is being reshaped—from a risk asset among retail investors to a tool for large institutions' allocations.

The influx of institutional funds rewrites the game rules, while changes in liquidity expectations determine the pace.

The folks on Wall Street finally couldn't hold back anymore. It's a bit late to start playing Bitcoin now. Really? Is Goldman Sachs really serious this time, or are they just bluffing again? It just feels like another signal. Good news is good news, but it doesn't necessarily mean a rally. Alright, if institutions are coming in, then so be it. Retail investors, as always, preventing liquidation is the most important.

Is Goldman Sachs really here? Wall Street is about to get on the trading table Once institutions enter, the game changes, retail investors need to hold tight This liquidity operation is a bit daring, the Federal Reserve is playing heartbeat Wait, the amount shrank from 1.7 billion to a few hundred million, that gap... is a bit awkward Honestly, symbolic significance > actual amount, I get this point The Federal Reserve is buying and selling at the same time, can the market not be anxious? Bitcoin changing from a risk asset to a allocation tool, sounds a bit significant Two things hitting together, the timing is just perfect People on Wall Street never really stay absent Liquidity expectations are the real killer weapon The source of funds has changed, and the logic behind it all changes

Goldman Sachs has really lost its composure, Wall Street is starting to get serious --- Wait, 1.7 billion to a few tens of millions? That contrast is quite stark --- A compliant channel platform is a signal, can the subsequent funds be less? --- The Federal Reserve's liquidity injections and withdrawals are quite a game --- Institutions are changing the rules, retail investors are still guessing ups and downs --- This wave of liquidity changes indeed makes nerves tense --- Bitcoin has shifted from gambling to an investment asset, the landscape is changing
