$BTC does not show cash flow and ETH has not reached consensus with BTC, will something surprising happen??
During yesterday's session after the price range of 97.6k with low trading volume, we were waiting for a surprise from the market, which would see continuous cash flows entering, causing the price of BTC to break out of the 97.6k range, but the harsh reality is that smart money has not truly returned. After the price range of 97.6k moved sideways with low volume (test point in phase C according to Wyckoff), selling pressure continued to push down to the 94k range, creating a sense of panic and frustration for retail investors.
Additionally, top coins at the current stage, such as $ETH , are in a sideways process that is unclear whether it is re-accumulation or distribution, $XRP is distributing while waiting for the re-accumulation phase, and SOL is in the third drop phase, unclear whether it is distributing or accumulating. This shows that large cash flows are currently not ready for top coins to enter the price pushing cycle along with BTC.
The current phase of differentiation is extremely similar to the phase in October 2024 when BTC continuously rose to resistance levels and then sharply dropped to support levels, causing top coins to fluctuate according to BTC, primarily during this phase is accumulation to prepare for BTC's price push into 6-11-2024 (Trump re-elected).
Therefore, at this stage, there is no consensus from smart money in most top coins and BTC to be ready to enter the price pushing cycle, so the best-case scenario will be a long re-accumulation phase. So currently, if you hold assets and can endure for 2 - 3 weeks, then you can hold; otherwise, you should stand aside and wait for the consensus of top coins in the market and BTC.
