In the past 24 hours, the cryptocurrency market surged by 80 billion USD in market value—equivalent to creating a BNB out of thin air!
Bitcoin is leading the charge, and the whole network is buzzing. Many people are asking: What happened? Did the whales strike? Did Wall Street buy again?
My answer may sound clichéd, but it's true: because the year is over, and the Chinese are back.
During the Spring Festival, trading volume in the Chinese-speaking regions was visibly light. But now the holiday is officially over—the year-end bonuses have arrived, the phones are out, and positions need to be replenished.
This 80 billion USD increase in market value is not due to some mysterious whale or sudden benevolence from institutions. It is simply countless ordinary Chinese investors reopening their apps and pressing that buy button.
This is a return of capital, and more importantly, a return of confidence.
Data doesn’t lie: trading volume in the Asian session is quickly recovering, and USDT premiums are quietly rising. That familiar Eastern strength has returned.
However—let me give my friends a reminder:
Those who follow me know that my consistent view is that Bitcoin may still retest the 40-50k range. A short-term, emotion-driven rise does not equal a trend reversal.
My advice:
Don’t FOMO into a position.
Don’t chase the price just because it’s going up.
Save some bullets, wait for a comfortable position.
Remember: the ones who lose the most money in a bull market are always those who chase highs and sell lows.

Have you returned to your position? Have you added back to your holdings? Did you chase the rise, or are you waiting?
