Recently, an interesting phenomenon has been observed—U.S. stocks are rising, gold is also climbing, and even commodities are moving, but the crypto market remains sideways and suppressed. Is this really just a coincidence?
A closer look reveals the clues. This market behavior doesn't resemble a natural trend; it looks more like someone is deliberately creating illusions. The purpose of suppressing prices is quite clear: to reduce resistance during upward movements, while causing retail investors to constantly react and fluctuate in this torment.
And this is exactly what institutions and major players want—if you trade frequently and adjust your positions often, your holdings will gradually be depleted. Fees, slippage, being trapped... every move chips away at your position.
So the current strategy is actually very simple: **Do nothing**. These three words sound easy, but actually require true discipline to execute. Those who can hold steady, those with real diamond hands, are the opponents that institutions find hardest to defeat. Because if you don’t move, their tricks become ineffective. Dogecoin, Bitcoin, Ethereum—no matter what you hold, persistence is more important than action.

Been in consolidation for so long, my hands are a bit itchy, but I have to hold back, or I'll get cut again.

Wow, this suppression is really outrageous. Other markets are all excited, but we're being held down tightly. I've seen it coming a long time ago.

Ah, this wave of suppression is really fierce. Retail investors are still anxious, while institutions are already accumulating. Making money from fees is the real profitable activity.

Hold steady and that's it. The more you move, the faster you die. How many people have to suffer losses to understand this truth?
---
Not moving is indeed difficult, but once you move, you're just giving money to others. I'm now holding tightly and not letting go.
---
This trick, frankly, is just making you anxious enough to trigger a sell-off. We simply refuse to go along with their wishes. Let's see who can hold out.
---
Diamond hands ≈ no more money to continue trading, haha, but judging from the results, we did win.
---
It's always like this—US stocks and gold take off, but we're locked out. It's really quite ironic.
---
In essence, it's a game of patience. Those who can see through this are all winners.

Here we go again with the story of pushing the market down; I've heard it a hundred times already.
Don't make it so complicated. Simply put, when it drops, don't rush to buy the dip; when it rises, don't rush to sell. Those who can do this are already financially free.

Just hold on, and that's it. Don't fucking move around.

Damn, this wave of suppression is really outrageous. US stocks and gold are soaring, while we're stuck in a deadlock.
Basically, it's just trapping retail investors. Frequent trading is the biggest form of self-sabotage.
I'm too lazy to bother anymore. Holding is always better than anything else, let the institutions waste their effort.
Patience is the key in times like this. Diamond hands win big.
If it just consolidates, so be it. Anyway, I’m not watching the market anymore, just lying flat like a salted fish.
