Eating and Learning How to "Read" the Crypto Market

Yesterday I went to eat in downtown Hanoi, intending to enjoy a hot pot. When I arrived, it was nearly 6 PM, and I realized that most of the famous restaurants were packed with people, with long lines filling the entrance. I took a number and heard the staff say I had to wait... an hour. Thinking that waiting an hour to eat was too "expensive", I decided to find another place. After asking around, I realized that everywhere is crowded: Hotpot Story restaurant waited in line for 2 hours. Com Nieu Sai Gon restaurant: 1 hour. The excitement has turned into a gnawing hunger. In the end, I had no choice but to "lower my standards" and settle for a bowl of nearby Ramen. Next to Cơm Niêu Sài Gòn, there is an Ajisen Ramen restaurant. Although it was quite crowded inside, there was no line outside, so I went right in, ordered my dish, and only waited about 10 minutes. After eating a few bites, I realized... the noodles weren't as good as regular instant noodles. But the restaurant is still crowded. One group of people comes out, another group comes in, and the tables are always full. It looks like a good restaurant, but in reality, it is the effect of other overcrowded places: many people do not want to wait in line, so they choose to eat somewhere else temporarily. This is an interesting lesson: the same principle can be applied to the crypto market. Crypto and "Restaurants" in the Bull Market EOS and ETC in previous bull markets were often the last coins to start rising sharply. When they reach their peak, the bull market also ends. General rule: The leading coins (BTC, ETH) rise first. New projects (new altcoins) start to rise. Old altcoins (old altcoins) rise afterward. Finally, there are the quiet coins, which few people know about, that rise for a few days and then settle. Similar to Ajisen Ramen: not delicious but still crowded because people have no better options. In the crypto market, old altcoins are often held by "old players" to take profits, and few newcomers dare to buy. If you don’t cash out in time, it may "bury your capital." Strategy "Eating Fish in Order" To maximize profits in a bull market, you need to follow the logical sequence: Bitcoin (BTC)Ethereum (ETH)New altcoinsOld altcoins When the bull market is about to end, you use a small amount of capital to short the last remaining coins. This is a safer method than "buying the top." Index to watch: BTC and ETH have continuously not seen a doubling increase for 60 days, which is almost a signal that the bull market is about to end. Since the market is a battle for capital, if there is no new capital coming in, it means a lack of upward momentum. Conclusion A bull market is not for accumulating "infinite assets". The goal is to improve the quality of life and enjoy valuable moments. Just like eating: you don’t always have to wait for a good restaurant, sometimes instant noodles are enough to fill you up and are reasonable. In crypto, it's not always about "chasing the peak" to make a lot of money, but knowing the right timing, choosing the right things, and knowing when to take profits. Life and crypto are alike: the real value lies in the moments and experiences, not the numbers on the screen.
