After the market closed at 2 a.m., I couldn't help opening a shopping app. I only meant to buy a pair of running socks, but by checkout there was a hiking jacket, a cat bed, and a pair of shoes in my cart. My excuses were “I can use it for hiking,” “Mantou loves burrowing into things,” and “My old shoes are worn flat and need replacing.” Really, it was all just late-night impulse buying when I was feeling vulnerable. The next morning, once I was fully awake, I checked my order. At least it was only those things—not completely outrageous. Now I'm watching the tracking updates, and somehow I have more to look forward to than watching the market. #深夜购物 #FitnessRamblings
There was a guy in our group who worked in photography. Years ago, he used to retouch photos for people in Huaqiangbei—five yuan per product shot—and during busy season, he’d work through the night to meet deadlines. Around 2017, he retouched a promotional poster for a blockchain project. When it came time to pay, they said cash was tight and handed him a few thousand newly issued tokens instead, saying they’d cover the 1,200 yuan he was owed for the work. At the time, he muttered to himself that they were basically fobbing him off with a string of thin air.
The coins sat untouched in his wallet for over half a year. Nobody even took his sell orders on the exchange. He couldn’t stand seeing them there, and when he needed to replace a lens for his secondhand camera, he found someone to buy the whole lot over the counter. He got a couple thousand yuan back and told us he’d lost the price of a few meals, but at least he had peace of mind.
Over the next two years, that coin slowly clawed its way up from obscurity, then multiplied who knows how many times in one bull run. At its later price, the amount he’d sold would’ve been enough for a down payment on a storefront in his hometown, with money to spare. He heard about it from someone else. He was holding his camera, shooting a model apartment for a property development, when his hand shook and he nearly cracked his head on the doorframe. After a long pause, all he said was, “That was worth half a month of retouching work.”
That guy still takes photos. When he has lots of jobs, he still stays up late. He smiles faintly. People say there’s no point regretting it—how can you blame anyone for selling something they got for free? But he never quite manages to keep that smile on his face.
Have you ever sold a coin too early? Do you remember what you were trying to buy with it?
🌙 How far can this bull market go? My take on the cycle
Historically, every Bitcoin bull market has followed a similar rhythm:
📅 A look back at past cycles: • 2017: BTC breaks $20,000 → crashes → reaches a new all-time high • 2021: BTC breaks $69,000 → crashes → enters a prolonged bear market • This cycle: The halving effect + ETF inflows make for a different structure
📊 Current data for reference: $BTC Current price: — $ETH Current price: — $BNB Current price: —
💡 My personal take (not a prediction): • Institutional participation is higher this cycle, so volatility may be more stable • Continued inflows into BTC ETFs = long-term demand support • But that doesn't mean there’s no risk of a major pullback!
🎯 Strategy: Hold $BTC $ETH as my core position; don’t chase altcoins Take 20% off the table after each major rally to lock in profits Wait patiently for a true panic-buying opportunity

I’ve been glued to the market charts all morning—my eyes are practically stuck to the screen. I only realized I hadn’t eaten breakfast when hunger pains hit. I ran downstairs and grabbed some pork trotter rice to go. When I got back, Mantou was even more excited than I was, circling my feet and meowing. The U.S. market hasn’t opened yet, so I’m wolfing down a few bites while I can, and I just made myself a cup of pour-over coffee too. I want a quiet evening to watch the charts, so I’ll make some tomato-braised beef brisket myself and use up the leftover veggies in the fridge. #吃饭 #LivingAloneDaily
📊 Who’s strongest and weakest today? The 24-hour strength ranking for major coins is out
No. 1: BNB (24h: +0.6%) — Money is actively flowing into it. There’s a reason the strong keep getting stronger. At the bottom: BTC (24h: -0.5%) — Short-term weakness doesn’t mean the trend is broken, but think carefully before trying to catch a falling knife.
Three ways I use the strength rankings: 1. For the strongest coin, a pullback to support is an opportunity, not a risk; 2. For the weakest coin, a bounce to resistance is a chance to trim your position, not a reason to add; 3. When everything rises or falls together, you only need to watch $BTC (current price: 82,052, 24h: -0.5%).
📋 My trading plan (personal thoughts, for reference only): Entry: Only buy strong coins on a pullback; don’t try to pick a bottom in weak coins Position size: ≤10% Take profit: In two batches: sell half at 84,000, and watch 86,000 for the rest Stop-loss: 2% below the entry price; discipline comes first Reason: In a rotational market, following strength gives you better odds

There was a guy in the group who used to deliver water jugs to office buildings around Nanshan. Each jug weighed 40 jin (20 kilos). He’d pad his shoulder with a towel and climb dozens of flights of stairs a day. After seven or eight years, his back was shot, so he took over a little shop and started selling water himself.
At the worst point in that 2022 crash, his shop was dead too, and he spent every day glued to his phone, watching the charts. People in the group were yelling “going to zero” every day. Lots of them left; only a few familiar faces remained, popping up now and then to sigh and lament. The few who still spoke mostly posted screenshots: selling at a loss, clearing out their positions, and saying, “I accept my fate.”
He didn’t sell. In May and November that year, he bought in across three batches. The first purchase alone was tens of thousands. He spread out the cash he had on hand, using only a little at a time. He said everyone else was cutting their losses and leaving; he was there to pick up the bodies, taking one batch and hanging on to see what happened. Less than half a month after his first buy, the price plunged again. He bought the second batch halfway down. He left the third untouched, saying he wanted to keep some powder dry for the winter.
Those days were what you’d call a real grind. He’d sit in his shop with barely enough for a pot of tea, staring at the computer. At night, he couldn’t sleep and would go out walking round and round. At the worst point, he was down nearly a hundred thousand on paper. He joked that a whole year of hauling water had gone down the drain. He stuck it out for almost a year. A few times, I thought he was about to sell everything.
When the market eventually recovered, he sold the cheapest batch at cost and got some money back to buy himself something. He was surprisingly nonchalant about it, saying it wasn’t any special skill—who knew what to call it? He still had more than half of his holdings untouched, waiting to break even. But he did tell me this: if it dropped another 20%, he wouldn’t have been able to take it; he didn’t have the grit to keep selling water for eight years. If you’d been in his shoes, would you really have dared to buy then?
① Can $BTC hold 77,500? → Holds = bullish confidence remains firm, with 85,500 in sight → Breaks below = deeper short-term correction; consider sitting tight
② Relative strength between $ETH and $BTC → ETH/BTC rises = a sign altcoin season may be starting → ETH/BTC falls = major capital is concentrating in BTC
③ Altcoins ($SOL /DOGE) follow the trend → BTC stable → altcoins may make independent moves → BTC volatile → greater risk of amplified swings in altcoins

Riddle: The sun sets in the west, and the moon rises in the east—guess one Chinese character.

The answer is 明. The sun (日) sets in the west and the moon (月) rises in the east; put 日 and 月 together and you get 明. 😄
