Lately, I have a feeling that December might not be very calm.

The market atmosphere during this period is very subtle—it's hard to pinpoint what's wrong, but something just feels off. The Fed chair has been saying less lately, and over in Japan, there might be a tightening of capital flows. If the Fed keeps holding off on making a statement, risk assets like Bitcoin will be under pressure from both sides. On top of that, the US November ISM Manufacturing PMI only came in at 48.2 (marking the ninth consecutive month of contraction), so tensions are gradually building.

BTC is now at a critical juncture. The dual squeeze on liquidity from both East and West, along with continued signs of manufacturing contraction, makes it really hard to predict what will happen next.

The Fed's silence is the biggest signal. This round really feels a bit suffocating. As soon as Japan tightens liquidity, BTC gets slapped from both sides. To put it bluntly, it's about seeing who can't hold on and runs first.

Ah... double squeeze, what to do, really have to brace ourselves in December. --- The Fed staying silent like this is just uncomfortable to watch. --- Manufacturing has been declining for 9 months straight, and the crypto space still has to tough it out, it's really hard. --- Both East and West are tightening liquidity, btc is caught in the middle. --- Feels like a big wave of volatility is coming, hold onto your wallets, everyone. --- So should we be accumulating or running now, that's the real question. --- That PMI data really can't hold up anymore, so the market's reaction is normal. --- Double squeeze? Isn't this just the prelude to a coming storm?

Who knows if this wave is going to crash again. The Fed is playing dumb, Japan is tightening its purse strings, and BTC is stuck in the middle and suffering. --- December won’t be calm? I mean, have any of the past few months been calm? --- Manufacturing has been declining for nine straight months and no one cares? Alright, time to run if you need to. --- With this double squeeze, what’s the point of playing? Cold wallet on standby. --- Uh, feels like nothing concrete was said... just that the air is full of uncertainty. --- Both East and West are tightening, and the people in the middle holding coins are really screwed. --- Just sit back and watch the show, I already went all in anyway. --- If the Fed keeps dragging its feet, even November’s PMI broke down, what else can you expect? --- Once liquidity gets stuck, you can feel your account shrinking immediately. --- Saying "hard to say" is the worst thing you can say—best to act early.

The Fed is definitely cooking up something big over there. This kind of silence is the scariest, and BTC is getting double hammered stuck in the middle. --- With this pace in December, I feel like I need to mentally prepare in advance. --- Manufacturing has declined for 9 consecutive months? Can't the data look a bit better? Why does the crypto space have to take the blame for this? --- I’m also sensing this weird vibe, like something is about to erupt. --- Whenever liquidity gets squeezed, retail investors want to reduce their positions and run. It’s tough. --- Instead of guessing what the Fed is thinking, better to watch if BTC can hold this key level. --- Both East and West are tightening. Japan and the US are squeezing at the same time—who can withstand that? --- Honestly, this subtle feeling is the worst. It’s even more uncomfortable than clear bad news. --- Keep watching from the sidelines. Survival comes first in December.

The Fed’s silence is really something else; they’ve truly mastered the art of dodging tough questions at critical moments. With Japan tightening as well, how is BTC supposed to survive under this double pressure?
