The performance of the market these past few days has been truly perplexing. On one side, various projects continue to decline, while on the other side, funds are quietly deploying. Is this the arrival of a real winter, or are the major players taking advantage of the low prices to carry out a new round of harvesting?

From on-chain data, the recent actions of large wallet holders are indeed somewhat abnormal. Small-cap tokens experience intense volatility, and after most retail investors are shaken out, prices suddenly rebound. This rhythm feels all too familiar. Some say this is a natural market correction, while others believe it’s a carefully orchestrated leek harvesting scheme.

Honestly, in such market conditions, the most dangerous thing is not being able to see the direction clearly, but being swayed by emotions. When it’s time to reduce positions, do so decisively; when it’s time to wait and see, then wait patiently. This is the correct approach to survive until the next bull market.

Here we go again with this set? I believe that large traders are acting abnormally, but the real trap is making you watch these charts every day. --- I've heard "reduce your position" a thousand times. The question is, when is it really time to reduce? If I reduce now, what if it skyrockets tomorrow? --- I just want to know how many people can truly "wait patiently." Most are still anxious and fidgeting. --- Forget it, anyway, no matter how you choose, it seems wrong. Might as well just relax and watch the show. --- I agree that on-chain data is abnormal, but using it to judge the trend? Haha, it's better to see who cuts first and who cuts later in the community. --- Familiar rhythm, yes, but could this time really be the end of the bear market? No one seems to have an answer.

Here we go again with this routine, big players acting abnormally, retail investors getting washed out, price rebounding—who's really the scriptwriter here? Wait, this time feels different? Or am I about to get cut again? Reducing positions is the right move, but I keep impulsively trying to catch the bottom. No, I need to stay calm.

Here comes the manipulation again; I can guess this routine with my eyes closed. Alright, I'll just watch the show quietly. Anyway, I've gotten used to being cut more often. Reducing positions, reducing positions—it's easy to say but hard to do, my friend. Are big investors really that smart, or are we overthinking it? If this wave really rebounds, I'll just laugh. I'll end up chasing the high and getting caught. Just be honest and wait patiently. Not following the trend is the way to profit.

Back at it again? When big players shake out the retail investors, they run, and when it rebounds, they regret it. This wave still needs to be cut again. Really, instead of guessing what the main force is thinking, it's better to focus on managing your own hands and not get emotionally drained. Winter is still for deployment; honestly, it doesn't really matter. The key is whether you can hold back from acting. In this kind of market, it's best to reduce positions and observe. If you insist on going all-in and gambling that one shot... you deserve to be trapped. Big players are playing, small investors are just along for the ride; it's still the same story. Watching the market go up and down, if your mindset collapses, that's the real loss. Let's wait and see; it will be someone's turn eventually.

Coming back with this again? I'm already tired of the big players' unusual moves. Every time they say someone is planning the next round, but retail investors are still the chives. That's true, but lowering positions and waiting it out is easy to say. When you're actually caught in a trap, who can stay calm?
