In this bear market environment, some popular meme coins continue to trade sideways, essentially reflecting a dual situation of liquidity exhaustion and confidence collapse. The bulls dare not push the market aggressively, and the bears lack the motivation to dump everything. The entire market feels frozen. Everyone is waiting—waiting for a signal that can wake the market up.

As a result, the coin prices fluctuate within a narrow range. Those chasing the high are stuck at high levels waiting to break even, reluctant to sell at a loss; those holding want to quickly exit their positions and get out early; and those trying to bottom fish are afraid there is still room for further decline. All three sides are unable to move, relying only on swing trading to buy and sell back and forth. Under this deadlock, no one dares to place heavy bets, and the market becomes highly fragmented with small fluctuations. Truly, it will take time and external stimuli for the market to regain consensus.

I disagree, that's too negative. Poor liquidity is one thing, but do you really think no one dares to act? The people around me are still secretly accumulating at low levels, they've just learned to be smarter—small amounts multiple times.

Isn't this just boiling a frog in warm water? No one wants to make the first move, and if everyone stays still, eventually no one will be left.

It's outrageous. This wave of meme coins has really been frozen, and no one can move it. --- Waiting for signals? Probably have to wait until the end of time haha. --- That's right, cutting losses is heartbreaking, holding on stubbornly is also tough—who can endure this kind of life? --- Liquidity exhaustion is the killer move. Small investors have no say at all. --- Swing trading gets killed back and forth. I ask, who is more亏 than this? --- When will external stimuli come? Rely on SEC favorable news or wait for Musk to tweet. --- The standoff among the three parties is indeed the case. Watching the coin price fluctuate makes one emotional. --- Fragmented volatility, no one dares to take over, feels like a dead pond. --- Really can't understand why some people still chase high. Are they trying to pay an IQ tax? --- Sideways trading is more frustrating than a crash. At least when it drops, you can buy the dip.

liquidity death spiral in full effect... watched this exact pattern play out in 2018, spoiler: it gets uglier before anyone admits they were wrong. smart money's already positioned, retail's just cannon fodder at this point.

Ha, it's that same story of "liquidity exhaustion" again. The explanation is correct but not very useful. The key question is who will break the deadlock. Those who are truly cutting losses have already done so. The ones still hesitating are just gambling. Instead of waiting for signals, it's better to find your own opportunities. Snatching some profit within the wave is always better than lying flat.

This is a typical deadlock; no one wants to be the last sucker to take the bait.
