The decline in the crypto market has basically stabilized at this point. To be honest, over the past month since the drop, there have been quite a few days of sideways movement, and institutional big players have already entered the market. The current question is—will there be another big plunge? Honestly, the probability of that happening is not very high.

A more realistic scenario might be this: a wave of not-too-violent sharp decline to shake out and clear out floating capital, followed by a relatively stable upward trend. This is especially true for mainstream coins like Ethereum.

Of course, this is just personal market observation and analysis, not investment advice, just a perspective for reference. The market changes rapidly, and how to operate specifically depends on each individual's risk tolerance.

Institutions have already entered the market, and we're still discussing probabilities. Isn't this the best signal?

Institutional entry means it's all over, this wave is stable --- Another small shakeout? Fine, anyway, I'm used to being a leek --- Really, or are you just dreaming while looking at the candlestick chart --- Mainstream coins stabilize and then dare to say it's stable, it cracks me up haha --- Wait, is this logic reversed... falling first then rising? --- Who can hold out during a month of sideways trading? I’ve already fallen asleep --- So basically, it’s just ignorance, is this called analysis? --- Ethereum is truly a work of art testing human nature --- Listen, listen, listen, it’s all about "reference angles," very strong in exercising rights --- Risk tolerance? Bro, I’m all in

Institutions are entering the market, can we retail investors still keep up? --- A shakeout is inevitable this round, be mentally prepared. --- It's good that Ethereum has stabilized, let's wait and see about the others. --- It's another "reference angle," honestly no one dares to guarantee anything. --- After such a long period of sideways movement, it should have moved already, can't hold back anymore. --- I bought the dip during this drop, just waiting to see how it develops. --- Is the probability of a big plunge small? Then what to do during low-probability times? --- Seeing institutions so calm, I feel less pessimistic. --- Clearing floating capital, I understand it too well, the rhythm of cutting leeks.

Institutions have already entered, and you're still telling me the probability is low? Haha --- Another round of washout theory, said the same thing around this time last year --- Just a month of sideways movement and you dare to say it's stable, now that's some guts --- Basically, just waiting for the retail investors to cut their losses, then feast on the bloodshed --- Is it the same for mainstream coins? I don't believe in Ethereum's behavior at all --- First a sharp drop, then steady rise, how many times has this script been played out and still going on

Institutions are entering the market so aggressively, but it still feels like they're squeezing toothpaste.

Institutions have long been laying in wait; now it's retail investors' turn to be washed out. --- Starting to talk about shakeouts again, I just want to know when the real rally will happen. --- I've heard this explanation too many times, and not once has it been correct. --- Consolidation is indeed hard to endure, but I feel the bottom hasn't been reached yet. --- If Ethereum really were that simple, that would be great; reality is always more brutal than expectations. --- It sounds nice, but in the end, we're just being advised to decide for ourselves. --- Are the institutions entering the market really to catch the bottom? I feel like they're building positions. --- A slight shakeout followed by a rise sounds very reasonable, but who knows? --- This wave definitely feels different; all those big influencers' predictions before have failed. --- Stabilizing? I think the bottom hasn't even been confirmed yet.

Institutions have long been lurking, and retail investors are just waiting to be washed out. --- It's another round of shakeout followed by a rally. I've heard this story for a year. --- After such a long period of consolidation, I really can't hold on anymore. When will there be a sharp drop? --- I don't believe you, next time there will be another big plunge. --- Is Ethereum and mainstream coins stable? I feel like they could crash at any moment. --- You're right but it doesn't help; it still depends on how much loss you can bear. --- Institutions have entered the market, so why isn't it taking off? Are they just playing around? --- This analysis approach is somewhat reliable, but it's just too difficult to operate. --- Stop rushing. Let's wait until the big players are full before we make a move.

Institutions have entered the market, so retail investors like us will be shaken out again. --- Shaking out again? Old trick, but I’m used to it anyway. --- Been ranging for so long, I’m really getting anxious, just waiting for that small dip to buy the dip. --- Alright, alright, first drop then rise, the eternal script. --- It’s good enough if Ethereum can stay stable. Who still dares to go all in now? --- Sounds nice, but it’s all about risk tolerance... I don’t have that ability, haha. --- At the beginning of the month, they said a big surge was coming, now they’re talking about sideways movement again, really ridiculous. --- Institutions entered early, and we didn’t react in time to cut losses. --- Not considered investment advice? Then it’s just heartfelt words. --- Shaking out the floating capital, just listen and forget it, I don’t believe it anyway.

Institutional entry is a good signal, but you need to withstand the shakeout wave. --- Another wave of mild sharp decline? Why not just say a crash haha. --- Has Ethereum stabilized? We need to see if it can hold the support level this week. --- After such a long period of sideways movement, we can only wait for the wind to come. --- Risk tolerance? I've already gone all in, my friend. --- A shakeout first and then a rise? Sounds like the old routine. --- I can't say there's a big plunge, but there's still risk involved. --- Institutions have already entered, why are you still hesitating? Just get on board.
