From the data of spot ETFs since Christmas Eve, the overall trend still has not broken through. Traditional financial investors' enthusiasm for participating in crypto assets has not increased as expected; instead, leading institutional investors like BlackRock continue to expand their market share. Interestingly, while the S&P 500 index repeatedly hits new highs, BTC remains around $88,000, seemingly lacking upward momentum. The Christmas holiday has passed, but market liquidity remains relatively scarce—this situation is unlikely to improve in the short term. It is estimated that only after January 6, as trading activity resumes, we may see new opportunities. Institutional entry is steadily progressing, but the overall market is still in a phase of accumulation.

Smiling and then crying, BTC is still pretending to be dead at 88,000, the S&P has soared to the sky, but our broken coin is stuck in place. This script is well written. Institutions are quietly accumulating, retail investors are waiting for the wind to turn, anyway, liquidity has been frozen. Let's just take a break before January 6th. BlackRock is aggressively expanding its share, while we are frantically counting how many coins are left in our wallets. The gap is really huge, brother. I made a wish on Christmas Eve for half a month, and the market is still in the energy accumulation phase. Basically, it's waiting for someone to come and rescue the market. We call this a shared expectation.

BlackRock is quietly accumulating coins, while retail investors are still waiting for the right moment. The gap is quite significant. How long has 88k been stuck? It feels endless.

ngl the liquidity drought post-holidays is giving major flashbacks to 2017... institutions are quietly accumulating while retail's on vacation mode. btc hovering at 88k isn't weakness, it's just the difficulty adjustment before the real surge imo. blackrock's hashpower in the market keeps expanding but nobody's talking about it.

BlackRock is quietly accumulating, retail investors are still waiting for the right moment, what a gap Institutions really know how to play, we need to learn from them 88k card has been waiting so long, probably until January 6 Waiting for liquidity to return, that's the real highlight The S&P is exploding, BTC is still sleepwalking, a bit awkward The most torturous period is during liquidity exhaustion, in the midst of torment... Traditional financial investors missed this wave, which is somewhat regrettable The energy accumulation period is like this, you need patience, otherwise you'll only get cut

BlackRock is quietly building positions, while retail investors are still stuck in place. The gap is getting bigger and bigger. Institutions are taking the big pieces, and we're just sipping the broth. Don't expect any market movement before January 6th. 88,000 is like a stubborn nail that no one can pull out. The S&P 500 has soared to the sky, but BTC is still sleeping. It's really unbelievable. Wait, is this liquidity crunch because major institutions are secretly bottom-fishing? Something feels off.

Hmm... Institutions are accumulating, while retail investors are still sleepwalking. This is the current situation. Wait, can 88k still be called hovering? I feel like they are holding back a big move. Liquidity exhaustion is just that—exhaustion. Anyway, BlackRock isn't in a rush to run. There's still time before January 6th. I choose to continue lying low and observing. Institutions are steadily advancing. To put it simply, they are playing their game, and we just wait to pick up the pieces.

88k is still dragging on, really pointless BlackRock is secretly accumulating, and retail investors are still dreaming Liquidity exhaustion is like this, let's wait and see if it can turn around in January Institutions are steadily advancing, we have to wait to be cut This wave of market movement is a bit stiff, it looks like it will be cold for a while longer

BlackRock is accumulating, retail investors are waiting, this is the current situation. Hovering around 88k is a bit awkward, the S&P has already soared while we're still standing still. Let's see again on January 6th, anyway, there haven't been many opportunities in the past two weeks.
