#数字资产动态追踪 Two consecutive major signals are hitting the market—this time, it might really be different.

The latest client advice from a U.S. bank explicitly recommends including a 4% crypto exposure in asset allocation. This is not just a prediction from some influencer, but an official guideline issued in black and white by a regulated financial institution managing trillions of dollars. Meanwhile, Federal Reserve officials have hinted in their latest statements that this year's rate cuts could exceed 100 basis points, far surpassing previous market consensus.

What will happen when these two events coincide? As cheap capital begins to flow and traditional financial institutions start to enter the market in an orderly fashion, the game changes from zero-sum to genuine incremental competition. In the last cycle, assets with the top ten market caps absorbed over 70% of the new inflow—meaning institutional allocations have never been evenly distributed.

The question is, who will benefit from this rotation? Bitcoin, the most fundamental asset? Or the underlying ecosystem like Ethereum? Or some mainstream tokens in specific sectors? The key lies in whether your main holdings happen to be among those assets that institutions will prioritize. In simple terms, when a big cycle arrives, the timing and position of entry determine everything.

nah the real question is capital utilization efficiency here... 4% allocation sounds cute until you realize institutional flows don't actually redistribute evenly lmao. watched this movie last cycle, same script different actors

Bank of America’s 4% allocation is really not just talk, but the key question is: when institutions enter the market, whose bottom will they be buying? Will they pour into BTC or wait for small altcoins to rebound?

Bank of America officially announces 4% allocation, interest rate cut of over 100 basis points... To be honest, this combination is quite aggressive, and the liquidity situation has changed.

The Federal Reserve loosening and traditional finance entering the market—this wave is really a bit different. The key is how institutions will allocate?

Bank of America’s 4% exposure indeed signals a lot, but the real question is—how much time do we retail investors have left to buy the dip? Once institutional investors start entering the market, retail will truly become the bagholders.

Bank of America is now recommending a 4% allocation. What does this indicate? Institutions are really starting to move...

If Bank of America dares to make such a suggestion, it shows that institutions are really starting to break down their psychological barriers. But from what I see, this 4% allocation sounds like a lot, but in reality, spreading it across trillions of dollars is just a small amount. The key is whether real money will come in later. I believe in the rate cut of over 100 basis points; with liquidity easing, there's a high chance funds will find a place to go. The question is whether they will enter the crypto space—it's just two words: see the will of heaven.

Hmm... The 4% exposure at US banks sounds good, but it's not that extraordinary. After all, 4% is neither too much nor too little.

The matter of allocating 4% at US banks is a breakthrough. But whether it can really create waves depends on the subsequent amount of funds; a hundred basis point rate cut seems even more uncertain.

American banks are now officially recommending a 4% allocation, so institutions really can't pretend anymore. With over 100 basis points of rate cuts and cheap funding, how could prices not rise?
