【Those who bought the dip on FIL must be feeling pretty rough these past couple of days】

Yesterday, you were still basking in the joy of a 3% gain over seven days. Then you woke up today to—down 7.5%. I know that feeling all too well. I’m not trying to rub it in; when I first got stuck holding the bag in China’s A-share market in 2017, I felt the same way: I got the direction right, so why was I still losing money?

Back to FIL.

Here’s where things stand now: the price is hovering around $1.09, with key support at $1.07 and resistance at $1.23. The Greed Index is at 71, in greed territory, but FIL itself has already started to pull back. What does it mean when you put those two signals together?

From what I’ve seen, this kind of situation is often more telling than price data alone. Sentiment peaks before prices do. That’s not some mystical theory—it’s human nature. Most people in the market are still caught up in the “the bull market is here” mood, but smart money has already started heading for the exits.

But that’s not the main point I want to make.

What does this actually mean?

FIL has fallen nearly 100-fold from its peak. I don’t even need to look up the data; everyone in this line of work knows that. At this point, the question has changed—it’s no longer “Can it still go up?” but “Have this project’s fundamentals changed in a fundamental way?”

My take: no. Filecoin’s storage niche addresses real demand. I’ve looked at a few real-world use cases, and people really are using it for data storage. The problem is that I have no idea when it will truly break into the mainstream or when mainstream capital will flow in.

So my mindset right now is: don’t buy the dip, don’t chase the rally—just watch and wait. I’ll see what happens once the direction becomes clearer.

What about you? Is this FIL pullback an opportunity or a trap? Do you think this sector can achieve real-world adoption?
