#数字资产市场动态 The Federal Reserve minutes at 3 a.m. might be the key to breaking the two-month deadlock.

Why have Bitcoin and Ethereum been stuck in a range between 85,000 and 95,000 for so long? Essentially, the entire market has been waiting for the Fed to give its stance. Especially the December meeting minutes — this time more important than ever because they will directly reflect officials’ true views on inflation and employment.

From my observation, this set of minutes is highly likely to show a hawkish stance. The Fed is actually divided internally: one faction is firmly defending the interest rate line, fearing a rebound in inflation; another faction, seeing rising unemployment, is eager to loosen policy immediately. There are already voices in the market saying the minutes will emphasize that current interest rates may still be insufficiently high, which puts significant short-term pressure on crypto assets.

**You need to clarify two operational strategies:**

In the short term, once the hawkish expectations materialize, a dollar appreciation and risk asset decline are highly probable. If Bitcoin breaks below the key support at 83,821-86,284, it could test down to 80,641. If you are still holding leveraged positions now, be sure to prepare for risk control tonight.

But in the long run, this panic might actually create an entry opportunity. Why did the large whales’ transfers to exchanges drop nearly 50% in December? They are waiting for this moment. Once the market experiences panic selling due to the minutes, it’s a golden window to buy cheap chips in batches. Focus on tokens with real application scenarios and ecosystem development.

The market has been dead for two months, just waiting for this signal. After the minutes are released, the true trend will emerge. Whether it continues to oscillate or accelerates downward, the direction will become clear. $BTC $ETH

BTC-0,63%

ETH-1,9%

Waiting for the minutes at 3 a.m., the hawkish stance immediately signals a chopping of leeks. This wave might actually be a good opportunity to buy the dip. --- Even the big whales have stopped transferring funds, indicating they are holding back a big move. Retail investors should follow their instincts. --- Instead of stressing over short-term fluctuations, focus on projects that truly have ecological implementation. After the hype passes, that's when the real money is made. --- Break 83821 and prepare to buy the dip. In the long run, panic is actually a good window to accumulate cheap chips. --- Market has been pretending to be dead for two months just for this moment. If the hawkish expectations come true, the decline might bottom out even faster. --- Don’t be scared out by short-term movements. Historically, every Fed hawkish minutes have been hunting grounds for big fish. --- Leverage positions really need to be stopped tonight. It’s not worth risking your entire night on the minutes. --- Tokens with practical applications are worth holding long-term. Don’t put all your bets on speculative assets.

Hawkish policy implementation, what should we do... Feels like we really need to prepare for a cut in holdings this time Wait, are the whales stocking up? Should I consider the opposite move Let's note this down, basically it depends on the Fed's stance Is breaking below 83,000 real... The leveraged positions scared me to death Two months of sideways trading, what's the big deal? Last year's more outrageous market conditions, didn't we survive those too? Cheap chips are indeed tempting, but I have no money in my wallet... Hawkish and dovish talks every day, who actually has the final say? Long-term positioning sounds right, but the short-term mindset can't handle losses If this drop really goes below 80,000, I might consider bottom fishing

Is the hawkish stance coming, or do we still have to wait? I already reduced my positions long ago; anyway, in the short term, it's just a matter of getting cut. Seeing the whales holding back indicates that the bottom hasn't arrived yet.

Whales are all holding back, I think this meeting minutes is the shot they've been waiting for. Breaking 83,000? Let's see, risk control always comes first. Waiting for panic to buy the dip—that's the way to survive and see the bull market. The Federal Reserve is really annoying; the entire market is turned upside down by just one meeting minutes. Leverage traders are probably going to get liquidated tonight, so sad. Don't listen to experts, just watch what whales do; their on-chain transfers don't lie. Two months of sideways trading, I'm almost falling asleep, finally it's about to move.

Getting up at 3 AM just for this? The hawkish policies are implemented, and we are heading straight towards gravity [rocket] Whales are holding back their big moves, while retail investors are still debating whether to leverage up. The gap is truly outrageous. We've been pretending to be dead for two months. Tonight, the truth will be revealed—whether it's launch or burn, you'll know in a moment. Don't ask me what to do. I'm also waiting for a dopamine shot. Risk control always comes first, everyone. That line at 80641 really can't be touched. Crossing it means being sent straight to interstellar travel. It's so exciting.
