#数字资产市场动态 Recently, I observed an interesting market phenomenon. During these days around December 27th, the traditional commodities sector has been quite lively—gold, silver, and platinum prices have all hit new highs.
Turning to the crypto side, mainstream assets like $ETH, $SOL, and $ZEC are also in focus.
The question is: currently, it’s the end of the Christmas holiday, and New Year’s Day is just around the corner. Global financial market liquidity is noticeably tight. Trading volume on exchanges is much lower than usual, which is a pattern that occurs every year during this period. In such an environment, every move of the funds is amplified—this logic applies to both traditional and crypto markets. Some investors are already contemplating how far this year-end rally can go, and whether there will be new changes once liquidity returns after New Year’s.

Liquidity is tight at the end of the year. Be really careful with this wave of gains; don't end up becoming the bag holder.
When trading volume is thin, small funds can easily cause volatility. Let's watch the show.
Gold and silver are reaching new highs, and meme coins are not willing to be left behind. Funds really have nowhere to go.
The real test will come after New Year's Day. Once liquidity returns, the market might turn around.
During the holiday, traders are on vacation, and the market is dominated by retail investors and machines. This game is a bit uncertain.

Holiday low liquidity is really a trap, small funds' volatility is amplified several times
ETH has been interesting these days, gold hitting new highs, following the trend in the crypto circle is routine
Waiting for New Year's Day to come back, there might be a new market trend
Once liquidity returns, the shakeout will happen
It's too similar to traditional markets, and this time won't be an exception
The key still depends on what the Federal Reserve thinks
Holiday trading volume is sparse, and prices are unpredictable
In this year-end situation, those who lie flat and wait for liquidity are the smartest

Liquidity tightening has been like this every year, but this time the gold hitting a new high is indeed a bit interesting.
Wait until after New Year's Day to see if I can get on board.

Liquidity shortages lead to situations like this; the crypto world is so transparent about these things.
The annual show is unavoidable.
Will there really be a explosion after New Year's Day? Do I bet or not?
These days, no one is really trading spot, it feels like everyone is holding back.
I really didn't expect gold to hit a new high, but crypto has been so quiet?
Year-end market movements can't escape this pattern; we still have to wait until the Lantern Festival on the 15th of the first lunar month.
The period of liquidity exhaustion is the easiest time for sharp rises and falls; better to be cautious.

Liquidity crunch makes it easy to be crushed by whales, and pulling up the market at this point is a trap.
Looking at on-chain data, large holders have been疯狂 selling off these past two days, don’t be fooled by false breakouts.
The year-end surge is just to cross into the new year and cut the last wave; I bet it will plunge right after New Year’s Day.
The concentration of addresses transferring to cold wallets is too high, this is a clear signal, a warning of a potential run.
Shrinking trading volume makes pulling up the market the most dangerous; it’s a classic scheme of Ponzi schemes, and it’s absurd that some people are still buying in.
The fact that traditional commodities are hitting new highs precisely indicates that risk assets are fleeing; don’t be naive, everyone.
With low liquidity, who dares to chase this wave? Those who do will die; I refuse to be a leek.

It's the same every year around this time, when liquidity tightens, everything is prone to sharp rises and falls.
As the year ends and people rush to make quick money, the most likely to take the hit are the bagholders.
The real test will be after New Year's Day.
It's a bit outrageous for gold to hit a new high; is there another surprise coming?
How much more can ETH go up in this wave? I have no idea.
Let's wait and see; right now, it feels like gambling.
