Brother Jun wants to say a few words. Seeing this news, I'm not surprised at all, but the alarm bells still need to be sounded.
Trump's recent moves have dragged cryptocurrency from the 'street kids' directly into the 'Wall Street party'. It looks glamorous on the surface, but everyone inside knows that the music could stop at any moment. He calls himself the 'Crypto President', pushing policies and releasing meme coins, which is essentially a massive transfer of risk. Previously, those involved in cryptocurrency were mainly insiders and bold retail investors, taking profits and losses on their own. Now, over 250 listed companies are treating Bitcoin as a core asset or even their main business, which is equivalent to connecting the high-voltage electricity of the crypto market to the entire stock market's grid.
What does this mean? First, liquidity has come in, and the price foundation of Bitcoin looks more 'real', but this 'reality' is based on the financial reports of publicly listed companies and stock price expectations. Once there is a slight disturbance, they will sell off much more ruthlessly than retail investors. Second, risk has completely generalized; if you buy a fund in a traditional industry, you might indirectly end up with a lot of crypto assets without even knowing it. Trump gave the illusion of 'policy insurance', but the market itself never plays politics.
So, fans, listen to Jun Ge: the excitement is theirs, but the clarity is yours.
What to do next? Three points. First, reassess your holdings. If you have bought US stocks, especially small and mid-cap tech stocks or concept stocks, immediately check their balance sheets for crypto assets, and assess them as a highly volatile sector. Don't be fooled by traditional valuations. Second, for those who are consistently investing in mainstream coins in the crypto space, you can continue, but you must keep your positions at a level where you can sleep well. Chasing after any air coin or Meme coin at this point is just paying for this carnival. Third, and most importantly, shift your focus away from Trump's Twitter and the cryptocurrency price charts by half. Keep a close eye on the actual actions of the SEC, the statements from the Treasury, and the small print regarding 'impairment of digital assets' in those quarterly reports of listed companies. The winds of policy can change overnight, and by then, it will be clear who is swimming naked.
Remember, when risk is packaged as opportunity and handed to everyone, protecting your principal is your biggest task. The tide has turned, but our sailing skills must not change; we must remain vigilant, study, and be disciplined. Guard your ship, and when the waters calm, we can sail the farthest.
