#数字资产动态追踪 Key Strategies for Surviving 2026 (Part 1)

Many institutions correctly identified the direction in the last cycle, so where did the problem lie? Their ammunition was exhausted in long-term consolidation and downward drift, and they never made it to the bull market.

**1. Choose income-generating core holdings, avoid betting on potential**

The reality of a bear market is harsh—survival is more important than quick profits, and assets that can maintain stable existence are more valuable than air projects.

Core assets $BTC and $ETH must be held, but more positions should be allocated to compliant income-generating assets (such as RWA) and stablecoin yield products, using them to benchmark against time costs. In 2022, everyone realized that the biggest enemy of a bear market is not price decline but the inability to endure.

Many institutions believe that after the regulatory framework stabilizes in 2026, these types of income-generating crypto assets will be the first to be allocated large funds and driven up.

**2. Play both ends, avoid middle participation**

2026 will be similar to the end of 2022—incremental capital is scarce, and prices will fluctuate within a range.

What is the most loss-making operation in this market? Following the trend. When breaking through resistance levels, aggressively add; when breaking support, follow the trend to short. Almost every time, it results in the other side taking losses. A one-sided upward trend will not occur, so when prices rise, decisively reduce positions and reverse to short; when prices fall, cautiously buy the dip. If you miss the opportunity to catch both ends, stop. Cut losses when necessary, don’t hesitate.

**3. Abandon inside stories, embrace compliant exits**

2026 will bring a major change—whether a project can survive depends on whether it can connect with the traditional financial system.

Projects that do not generate real income or cannot handle real assets will be gradually consumed in the bear market. Infrastructure for stablecoins, RWA trading channels, compliant custody, and on-chain/off-chain clearing protocols are the true winners of the bear market.

Projects backed by Visa, PayPal, large banks, or top asset management firms are worth paying close attention to, as these partners control the legal fiat on/off ramps and institutional asset compliance channels.

$SSV $FLOW $ONDO are all worth focusing on.

The biggest enemy is giving up. That hits hard. It seems I still have to rely on RWA and stablecoin yields to survive.

Not being able to endure is indeed the biggest killer; that hits too close to home.

Getting through it is more important than getting rich overnight. That hit hard—last cycle, we just died from running out of ammunition.

It should be pointed out that this guy's use of the word "endure"... I took a look at the on-chain data, and indeed it is a pain point. Among the institutions that failed in the 2022 cycle, 90% died due to cash flow exhaustion rather than the price itself. Clearly, this validates a basic fact we've overlooked: asset survival time > speculative gains. But here is a point I want to falsify—the idea that RWA will be "the first to be allocated by large funds"? Based on the logic of the white paper and the current adoption rate of custody protocols, this assertion is a bit optimistic. The real capital exit channels haven't been established yet, so don't overestimate the regulatory speed in 2026.
