Funds are flowing, but the direction has changed. Traditional or emerging sectors like US stocks, gold, AI, and robotics have captured much of the attention, while enthusiasm for the crypto space is cooling down. This is not a bad thing; on the contrary, it indicates market differentiation—those hot money chasing trends have dispersed, and those who truly believe are still here.
The key question is: what stories are left in the crypto industry? Which narratives have withstood market testing and remain valid? Looking ahead, which directions deserve long-term investment?
The answer is actually hidden in different cycles of wealth accumulation. When entering the market, everyone focuses on high yields—pursuing rapid growth. In the mid-term, attention shifts to capacity—whether there is enough funding to support the space. But as time goes on, priorities become clearer: security and privacy are the real moats.
This logic applies broadly to the entire market as well. The current reshuffle is precisely the process of filtering out truly viable projects.

Hot money disperses and disperses, anyway those who stay are all genuine gold and silver.
Security and privacy must be taken seriously, but to be honest, most projects simply can't achieve it.
Still telling stories, but we have to look at on-chain data to speak.
The recent AI surge in the US stock market is indeed fierce, but crypto always has its unique value.
Shuffle the deck, we say this every time, but in the end, only a few survive the longest.
Moats? Let's wait until we survive the next bear market before bragging.
It's really just funds finding new outlets, a cyclical thing.
Those who truly believe are still here, it all depends on who can hold out until the end.

Hot money dispersing is actually quite good; finally, we can see who is swimming naked.
Security and privacy are truly long-term narratives, but how many projects have actually achieved this so far?
Wait, with AI being so crazy, are we really cooling down here?

Hot money disperses and disperses, anyway I've already taken a loss haha
Safety and privacy? Sounds good, but the projects that actually survive are not necessarily the ones with the most aggressive funding
This round of reshuffling is just big players cutting retail investors, nothing new
Wait, is BTC about to take off? I need to take another look
Track rotation, but this time I won't chase the trend, I've learned my lesson
Long-term bets? My wallet says I can't promise that
Is there still hope for privacy coins? Looking for a reliable direction

Hot money dispersing is actually pretty good, at least we don't have to listen to new retail investors bragging every day.
Safety and privacy? Well... that's true but a bit empty. Are there really projects that have these two aspects well implemented?
It's another reshuffle, another filtering. It feels like every bull and bear cycle says the same...
Long-term betting? I'm still thinking about it. Let's just survive this wave of volatility first.
Stories are gone; data is the real story.
AI is grabbing money, gold remains stable, and things are indeed a bit colder on our side... but I think the colder days are still ahead.
The truth is, everyone is waiting for the next certainty, but no one knows what it is.
Privacy moat sounds good, but who really pays for privacy?
This kind of saying feels a bit like an placebo, haha.
Cycle theory is back again, but this time it feels like the cycles are longer. Those who can't endure have already left.

Hot money flowing away isn't so bad; at least now we can see who's genuine and who's fake.
