This wave of M&A is really crazy; institutional entry has definitely changed the game.

Institutional entry has really begun; it feels like this wave of integration is just getting started.

The 2025 M&A wave is truly incredible. It feels like institutions are really serious about playing now, no longer just talking about it.

The 2025 merger and acquisition wave is so fierce; it feels like in 2026, we'll see how much more institutions can pour in... Oh wait, has the regulatory framework really become clearer?

The M&A boom in 2025 is really not hype; institutional investors entering the market are just on a different level.

This 25-year wave of M&A is real, and institutional investors are buying the dip... But to be honest, the ones truly making money are those early entrants who got in early.

Institutional entry indeed changes the game, but the real show is still to come.

The wave of mergers and acquisitions looks promising, but I'm more concerned about whether those small projects will be directly absorbed... A clear regulatory framework doesn't mean the risks disappear.

Brothers, the wave of M&A is coming, gotta quickly see if there are new projects eligible for free investment --- Institutional entry is a signal, once the pattern framework is out, this industry will undergo reshuffling --- Wait, will these projects have opportunities for free riders before IPO? Need to keep an eye on contract interactions --- Sounds nice, I just want to know what can be obtained for free, everything else is虚 --- Lost money last year, hoping to turn things around this year with the M&A concept? Laughing to death, I don't believe it --- Wallet is ready, just waiting for which project will have activities to boost interaction --- Even if regulated, it’s useless, air coins still get cut --- In this round of consolidation, small investors are probably going to be out --- Gas fees are going to rise again, have a bad premonition --- When institutions come, it’s actually harder to exploit, and the ecosystem is becoming more competitive
