#“圣诞老人行情”再现
Today, just in time for Christmas, the cryptocurrency market has risen against the trend, which is really eye-catching. In fact, the Christmas-exclusive holiday market has ended ahead of schedule. After experiencing the second bottoming out, the market is like a warrior who has accumulated full strength and has started a strong rebound. Although this trend is somewhat unexpected, it is reasonable when you think about it carefully.
The reason why it is surprising is that Bitcoin is trading sideways today, but some strong altcoins are taking the lead and carrying the banner of pulling up the market. However, they have not yet broken through the previous highs. Judging from the market rhythm, they are still in the range of compensatory gains. Looking forward to the subsequent trend, Bitcoin is undoubtedly still the "helmsman". If Bitcoin is still blocked at the 100,000 mark, altcoins will most likely not be able to escape the fate of continuing to fluctuate and consolidate.
In the meantime, the AI concept has been shining brightly in the cryptocurrency circle over the past few days, with a considerable increase. The 'hero' behind this is undoubtedly the AI agent concept strongly promoted by ai16z. Undoubtedly, AI, as one of the hottest fields today, has infinite potential, and many high-quality projects will certainly take root and sprout in this fertile ground. After all, with such a hot topic, even launching a few follow-up applications is enough to stir up a wave of enthusiasm, attracting a massive amount of funds and attention. However, it is essential to remember that the cryptocurrency circle has never lacked hot topics; the real key lies in the flow of funds. Once funds and topics collide, even the most baseless 'monsters' can be elevated to a pedestal under speculation. However, blindly chasing those hot topics that lack actual value support is undoubtedly digging a pit for oneself; a small misstep could lead to deep entrapment.
Looking back at this year, the cryptocurrency circle can be described as filled with 'minefields' and numerous traps. For instance, in the case of the inscription sector, recklessly entering the market when its popularity is soaring is likely to result in becoming a bag holder; then there are TG mini-games, which, from the very beginning, could be directly deemed worthless based on experience and analysis of the project's underlying logic, being purely 'junk' projects; furthermore, most of the recent meme projects that became popular have also struggled to escape the fate of price plummeting. Therefore, when chasing hot topics, it is crucial to conduct an in-depth and reasonable value assessment of projects. If one is merely obsessed with the price fluctuations of the secondary market and is deceived by the surface prosperity, the risks faced will be enormous.
So, when is the safest time to enter the market? Just like that long-held investment adage: 'Buy when no one cares.' Take the current situation, for instance; the market has significantly retreated compared to its previous peak, with many cryptocurrencies even suffering severe losses. After several ups and downs of declining prices, the overall risk of the market has greatly diminished, providing us with an excellent opportunity to add to our positions. Of course, given that we are currently in a mid-term adjustment phase, its duration is still unclear; therefore, the best strategy remains to gradually build positions when prices are low while flexibly employing swing trading to lower costs and lock in profits. As for next year's bull market, I still have considerable confidence, believing that the market will surely reward those who patiently hold and invest rationally.
