Interesting observation: crypto markets seem to have a selective memory when it comes to geopolitical shocks. Tariff announcements and Israel-Iran tensions trigger massive liquidations and volatility swings. Yet when major power dynamics shift elsewhere, traders act like nothing happened. Makes you wonder what actually drives the sell-off—is it genuine macro concern, or just FOMO following what everyone else panics about? The inconsistency in market reaction to different global events is worth paying attention to for anyone reading the charts.

Basically, it's retail investors following the trend. As soon as the key words appear, the market explodes, but no one cares about the real macro logic.

Basically, it's just following the trend. No one is really looking at the fundamentals; everyone is just jumping in after others close their positions and dump the market.

Basically, it's just a collective act, everyone watches the Federal Reserve and Middle East news and starts dumping, while ignoring collapses elsewhere.

Forget it, basically too many FOMO traders. Truly knowledgeable macro investors are actually not that many; most just follow the herd and sell off when they see others get liquidated. --- The market reaction is indeed strange... Sometimes it reacts sluggishly to key events, and other times it疯狂抛售 over trivial matters. --- The core issue is liquidity. The big institutions have already exited early, leaving retail investors to trample over each other. --- It's really just information asymmetry. Influencers shout, and everyone follows without anyone actually analyzing the fundamentals. --- Why is everyone buying into the same narrative... Isn't this just collective delusion? It will爆发 sooner or later. --- Exactly, exactly, I find it strange. The Middle East turmoil caused a全面跳水, but now it’s like nothing happened... Who is操纵 this rhythm?

Honestly, this is just collective hysteria among retail investors. Even a fart from the Federal Reserve causes a dip.

Basically, it's retail investors following the trend. When the dollar index moves, everything collapses. Very few people truly understand the underlying macro logic.
