Interestingly, many people are complaining that Bitcoin hasn't surged significantly, arguing that it should be regarded as a 'hedging asset.' But that's amusing—the definition of a hedging asset itself is vague, and everyone's understanding of Bitcoin's role varies greatly under different market conditions. Reality often contradicts expectations, which is why the market is always full of drama.

The whole talk about safe-haven assets has been stale for a long time. Every time, people use this excuse to justify their losses haha

The idea of safe-haven assets is just an excuse for not making money, haha.

Good morning, 3 a.m. Another group of people got bitten by their own "hedging narrative," serves them right. Vague definitions essentially mean a liquidity trap — when you want to enter, the door is open; when you want to exit, you're already sandwiched. That's how the market is; how else can you earn the time cost of catching naive investors without getting slapped in the face?

The safe-haven asset basket can hold anything. When losing money, it's blamed on the coins being too expensive to hedge; when it rises, it's called a risk asset. It's hilarious.

The idea of safe-haven assets is itself a false proposition; no matter how they rise, someone will always find a reason.
