Everything is Meme price

I'm a big fan of Meme coin and looking forward to the project's launch!

Original author: Ada, Deep Tide TechFlow "The bull market is coming, but why are the herds so quiet?" Netizens macaroni raised doubts in the Opensky community group. "Because of short positions + short orders." Group friend Niner replied. For Niner, who experienced the last round of bulls and bears, this bull market should have been a good time to make a lot of money, but Niner admitted that this market "didn't make any money". Similar to Niner's situation is Johhny, a full-time trader who says he "hasn't made any money since Trump sent Trump." Niner and Johhny are not a few of them. Mark, a partner at Wagmi Capital, said in an interview that "90% of retail investors don't make money in this bull market." ” Although Niner has not yet made money, he has also adjusted his investment strategy in time. "In the last cycle, I mainly 'took it', but this round I mainly did bands, and because there are a lot of new things coming out, I need to keep learning, and the pace is much faster." Niner's adjustments were timely, but most people were aware of it. "The logic of this round of investment is different from before, but most retail investors have not yet realized it." KOL Hippo said in an interview. With institutional funds entering the cryptocurrency market in large numbers, mainstream coins have hit historical highs again and again, whether in terms of funds, or in terms of acceptance and participation in technology and narratives, this is no longer a "retail-friendly" market. There is a view that the dividend period of cryptocurrencies for retail investors is coming to an end, and this round may be the last cycle for retail investors. Based on this, TechFlow interviewed in-depth participants in the digital cryptocurrency market, including well-known KOLs, private equity fund partners, quantitative traders, individual investors, etc., to analyze this round of bull market from their respective perspectives, in order to present a diversified view of crypto beings. A different crypto bull market Hippo, who entered the cryptocurrency circle in 2016, is already familiar with the cryptocurrency market. In the interview, he had clear thoughts and a loud voice, and unhurriedly recounted his observations of this round of bull market: "This is no longer a general rising market. If the previous bull market was a bull market under consensus, this bull market has taken a completely different path from the previous bull market under the differentiation of various policies, capital, and camps. ” Hippo is a military man who worked in commercial real estate investment before investing in cryptocurrencies. These experiences have also shaped his bold but cautious investment style. After several rounds of bulls and bears, he said, "What I've been thinking about is, what is really valuable in this industry, and what is the asset that can cross the bull and bear?" ” If the previous market was not clear enough, this round of market allowed Hippo to gradually find the answer. "In fact, I have been thinking about it, and now I find that this industry is a financial Internet, whether it is lending, trading, pledge, or the current popular US stock tokenization and stablecoins, it is essentially around finance, and it requires perfect financial infrastructure and systems." Hippo said, "Based on this thinking, I think Ethereum still has a lot of potential, so I will focus on Ethereum and DeFi assets now." ” In Hippo's view, the starting point of this bull market began with BlackRock's official adoption of Bitcoin ETFs, with short-term adjustments in between, and the second phase of the bull market began after the passage of the "Big Beauty Act" in the United States, which is expected to peak in November. But Mark had a different opinion. He said that the surge in memecoins in the second half of last year was the starting point of this round of market and the first half of the bull market. The second half stemmed from the rise of Ethereum two weeks ago, driving a new wave of market growth. Market highs are expected by September. In 2017, it was an ICO bull, and then an altcoin bull, but this round is obviously different, because everyone has been disenchanted, many concepts and stories have been falsified, and only financial applications remain. So even if Ethereum rises sharply, it has not yet reached a new all-time high, and altcoins have only partially increased," Mark said. Also a market veteran is quantitative trader Chenghua. He now has his own quantitative trading studio, mainly doing cryptocurrency arbitrage trading. Chenghua found a different situation in the early stages of this round of market: in previous cycles, retail funds were dominant, and small currencies rose fiercely. However, more mainstream funds came in this round and flowed to mainstream coins such as Bitcoin. But he was still "washed off the car". Although he still holds Bitcoin in his hands, he threw away most of it when it just exceeded $100,000, and he also changed positions when Ethereum fell the most ferociously, without waiting for the moment when it made up for it. Although he is a veteran of the industry, it is still not an easy task for retail investors to accurately step on the rhythm of the market. Where are the opportunities for retail investors? The most direct feeling of this bull market for full-time trader Johhny is: "There are too many currencies, there is no innovation in gameplay, liquidity is insufficient, and it is becoming more and more difficult for retail investors to make money." ” In the last bull market, Johhny stepped into the currency circle with Musk's shouting Dogecoin craze, and made a lot of money in the generally rising market. "I didn't even know what a candlestick was at the time, but I still made money." Johhny recalls. But the good days are gone. "The previous investment strategy is no longer suitable for this round." Johhny said, "I used to like 'take it to death' or I bought what others shouted. But now I have to learn to build a trading system that suits me," But even so, "the upside of the copycat dog is not as big as before, the capital and technical threshold of the market is getting higher and higher, and the money-making effect is getting worse and worse." Johhny said. So, in this bull market, why is it difficult for retail investors to make money? Where are the opportunities for retail investors? In Mark's view, there are two main reasons why retail investors are struggling to make money in this bull market. First of all, most retail investors have not yet converted from the logic of the last round of bull market, and still mainly hold altcoins and do not buy mainstream coins. The second is because of frequent position changes. "Chasing the rise and killing the fall is the commonality of retail investors, and it is also the enemy of making money." Mark said. Mark believes that the main opportunities in this bull market are in mainstream coins and memecoins. But as liquidity has improved recently, he has also found a new opportunity - "Recently, the new coins on Binance will increase several times, and they will no longer be cut in half as before." He said, "So I made an adjustment, that is, most of the funds are still in Ethereum, but I will use a small amount of funds to rush the new coin and fight big with small coins." ” "But in fact, there are not many opportunities left for retail investors." Mark is more pessimistic, believing that the cryptocurrency market will tend to be U.S. in the future, and mainstream coins will be dominated by institutional funds, leaving only the memecoin market for retail investors. However, if you want to make money in the Memecoin market, you need to have brains, time, and energy, and these conditions will screen out some unqualified investors, and there is a high probability that only 10% of people can make money in the Memecoin market. Hippo shares Mark's views, but he believes that in addition to mainstream coins and memecoins, some coins derived around transactions can also be focused. Because the project around the transaction is useful and cannot be avoided by the market, since it is unavoidable, it can survive, and it is easier to form a consensus. "Maybe for retail investors, the first thing they need to adjust is their mentality, that is, to give up the illusion of getting rich." Hippo said, "There may not be dozens or hundreds of times the opportunity for altcoins in the future, but there are still opportunities for mainstream coins, and there will be about 3-5 times the upside in each cycle." Then pay attention to Memecoins, new Memecoins will appear every round, and buying that phenomenal Memecoin will definitely make a lot of profits. ” In the previous round, there were some low-risk money-making projects with relatively low thresholds and friendly to retail investors, such as new hits and inscriptions, and there were not many opportunities in this round. "Or do quantitative trading like me, although there is a threshold, the risk is still low." Cheng Hua said, "In fact, I think the opportunity of Bitcoin is fair to anyone, it depends on whether you can grasp it." Fixed investment is a strategy that I think is relatively easy to implement, as long as the time is extended, there is a high probability that there will still be good returns. ” Is the crypto bonus period about to disappear for retail investors? In fact, in the last cycle, with the entry of some institutional funds, there are already voices saying that it is the last cryptocurrency cycle belonging to retail investors. Although retail investors are still participating in this bull market, this round of "institutionalization" is more serious. The total AUM of Bitcoin spot ETFs reached $137.4 billion in July 2025, with more than 400 institutions investing in BlackRock Bitcoin ETFs, including traditional giants such as pensions and sovereign funds. Global listed companies hold 944,000 BTC, accounting for 4.8% of the circulating supply, increasing their holdings by about 131,000 BTC in a single quarter. The scale of ETH liquid staking (LSD) products on platforms such as Coinbase and Binance has surged, and institutions have packaged ETH yield attributes as fixed-income instruments. All of the above data show that the cryptocurrency market is no longer a playground for retail investors to carnival. Some media reported that $120,000 in Bitcoin is just a "capital feast without retail investors." On that day, "there was no retail investors 'getting rich overnight', only BlackRock's 13 ETF subscription orders per second were rolling silently." ” This scene was exactly what Mark expected. "I think the golden age of retail investors making money has passed, and it is obvious that the second half of last year may be the last window period." He said. In fact, he has now taken a profit from part of the funds and switched to A-shares. "But it won't be completely withdrawn, I think the meme market opportunity will always be there, and there will be new things coming out." Mark planned it this way. Relatively speaking, Niner will be more optimistic. She said that she will still be soaked in this market because she feels that "the opportunity to make a lot of money is getting more and more on the side of retail investors." ” "There are many people who say the last cycle, and they have been talking about it for a long time. But I think the barbaric growth period has passed, and now is the time for good opportunities to emerge. Niner said, "I'm not leaving, I'm going to be a real alpha player." ” Equally optimistic are hippos. He believes that the market is moving in an orderly and formal direction, which means low risk and high return for retail investors. "With the entry of institutional funds, as long as you follow the investment in mainstream currencies, you can still get relatively good returns, and the most important thing is that this market is controllable and the risk is much reduced." Hippopotamus said, "Bitcoin may retrace 50%-70% at the low point of the cycle, but it will rise several times in a bull market, as long as you step on this rhythm and manage expectations, investing in mainstream coins such as Bitcoin may be the easiest money-making project for retail investors." ” For Hippo, who has been deeply involved in the cryptocurrency field for 9 years, his relationship with this market is like "fish and water" - "I have been at ease in this market and never thought of leaving." And I think the market opportunities for retail investors have always been there. ” Perhaps, both optimists and pessimists, as long as they have been soaked in this market, it is difficult to say that they will leave easily. What is really important is not whether the market gives opportunities or not, but the ability to learn to keep up with the market, the eyes to find opportunities, and the execution ability to seize opportunities.
