A few days ago, many people were creating various infographics claiming that MicroStrategy's potential delisting by MSCI could trigger a "death spiral" for Bitcoin. So what happened? Reality directly slapped them in the face.

These pessimistic claims exaggerated MSTR's potential delisting risk, trying to argue that it would cause a systemic shock to Bitcoin. But the market's actual performance was completely different. As an important institutional holder in the Bitcoin ecosystem, MSTR's potential delisting risk was overhyped into an apocalyptic prophecy—stretching the logical chain from MSCI index adjustments to Bitcoin crashes.

What’s truly interesting is that such extreme views often appear during the most pessimistic market sentiment. But history has repeatedly proven that the most pessimistic forecasts and the sharpest declines often occur just before a turning point. Bitcoin's resilience far exceeds these linear predictions. The MSTR saga did not trigger a chain reaction; instead, it became another market digestion episode.

Here comes another wolf's story, every time they say it's the end, but nothing happens --- How bored must those infographic creators be, shouting about the death spiral every day, yet Bitcoin is still lively and bouncing around --- The most pessimistic times are actually the best opportunities to buy the dip, I can recite this routine by heart --- MSTR has really been demonized, it's just institutional holdings, why the need to hype it up so much --- Basically, they just want to create panic to dump the market, it's always the same --- The worst market sentiment is often just before dawn, and this time is no exception

Here we go again, these people are getting more and more skilled at creating panic. Didn't they get proven wrong again? The bearish arguments are always the same. History has already taught them, so why don't they learn their lesson? They just enjoy seeing these extreme predictions get slapped in the face by reality. Bitcoin isn't as fragile as you think, okay?

Haha, another false alarm. These people really know how to make up stories. Are they stirring things up again? Stretching the logical chain so long, do they really think we're fools? The market is like this; the best opportunities often come when everyone is most panicked. This MSTR thing should have been over long ago, but they had to turn it into a doomsday scenario. --- This guy is right, history is just a textbook, but no one reads it. --- It's the "death spiral" again, really tired of hearing it. --- It’s always like this; a wave of panic passes, and then it cycles again. --- Resilience is a good word; Bitcoin is indeed quite tough. --- So this time, is it a mid-term short squeeze again? --- Linear thinking really can't move Bitcoin. --- Wait, is no one buying the dip this time? The market seems pretty calm. --- I really thought there would be a bloodbath, but it turns out to be this?

Another wave of false alarms, those who keep shouting about a crash really should reflect Once again, getting slapped in the face—that's the daily routine in the crypto world What death spirals? It's all these people creating anxiety to stir up heat History really repeats itself; every time, the most pessimistic moments are the opportunities The MSTR controversy came and went in an instant; resilience really can't be underestimated It's the story of the boy who cried wolf—will anyone believe it next time? Extreme opinions are mostly for entertainment value; the market simply doesn't buy into that Bitcoin has weathered so many storms; what’s this little turbulence? There are still people who truly believe those infographics, and it's just mind-boggling

Starting to make up stories again, so many infographics but still haven't managed to crash the coin, hilarious --- This time it's the boy who cried wolf again, every time saying it's the end but nothing happens --- I just want to know if these people truly believe or are deliberately creating panic, anyway I don't believe it --- The most pessimistic moments are actually the best opportunities, be smarter everyone --- If MSTR could easily drag down Bitcoin, it would have collapsed long ago, so why wait until now? --- The more mindless pessimists there are, the more I feel at ease, it's a reverse indicator --- After so many times in history, still not learning the lesson? Pessimistic predictions often turn into buying opportunities

Starting to make up stories again. How about this time's "Death Spiral" script? Did it scare you? People always like to exaggerate the worst-case scenario infinitely, then wait to be proven wrong, cycle endlessly. That's the good thing about Bitcoin— the more people say it's doomed, the more resilient it becomes, with incredible toughness. This MSTR incident is just like a small wave, the market will shake it off and move on. It's really no big deal. With so many past occurrences, can't you learn? The darkest times in the market are often just before dawn.

Another "The Boy Who Cried Wolf" act haha, these people are constantly creating panic charts, and they really scare themselves Bitcoin should fall when it needs to fall and rise when it needs to rise, it's not up to MSTR to decide its fate. Think less, everyone The most pessimistic moments in history are often the best opportunities to get in. Got it this time? Whether MSTR delists or not, so what? Bitcoin has been very resilient for a long time. What are these waves? The funniest part is these extreme predictions, they really think market liquidity is made of paper. Wake up!
