Previously, the flow of money typically followed the rule: Bitcoin → Ethereum → Large-cap Altcoins → Small-cap Altcoins, but now, the shift has become faster and more unpredictable, especially with the emergence of new coins (such as meme coins or the Solana ecosystem) that attract attention.

Some points to note about this change:

1. The rise of new ecosystems

Platforms like Solana, Avalanche, and Arbitrum are attracting a large amount of money flow due to their high scalability, low transaction fees, and increasingly developed ecosystems. This means that money flow is no longer concentrated solely on Ethereum or large-cap coins.

2. Meme Coins and speculative culture

Meme coins have become a strong “short-term boost,” attracting money flow due to media effects and FOMO psychology. However, the sustainability of these coins needs to be carefully considered.

3. Velocity of turnover

With an increasingly crowded market, rapid information dissemination means that money flow no longer “flows” sequentially but jumps directly into “hot” coins or ecosystems. This causes old rules to sometimes be broken.

What strategy for this season?

• Monitor ecosystem trends: New ecosystems have many growth opportunities, such as Solana gaining attention for NFTs and DeFi.

• Be cautious with meme coins: Only allocate a small portion of capital for speculation due to the high risks involved.

• Set long-term goals: Don’t forget that coins with solid fundamentals will be a safer choice during a downturn.

Every season has its own “champion,” and how you manage capital and stick to your investment strategy is the determining factor for success.
