Prolonged pessimism is reshaping how the global economy responds. The moment market confidence erodes, everything changes—spending patterns shift, investment strategies pivot, risk appetite vanishes. It's not just sentiment; it's a structural force that alters economic behavior at every level.

When pessimism hits, the market goes haywire—it's truly a chain reaction.

Once pessimism spreads, the market truly collapses. What new tricks can this wave of economic recession play?

This is the current state of the crypto world. Once confidence is lost, retail investors cut their losses and run, institutions also start to liquidate, and who dares to take the risk...

To be honest, the current round of pessimism is really intense. It's not the kind that dissipates in a couple of days; the entire economic logic has been changed, and we can feel it, right?

Without confidence, the wallet shrinks accordingly. I see through this wave.

Once confidence is lost, you have to be forced to change your investment strategy. There's truly no way to escape this wave.

When pessimism sets in, everyone starts to lie flat—that's the real economic killer.

Seeing this kind of macro narrative, it's clear that the market sentiment indicator has already bottomed out. The distribution of chips shows that institutions are accumulating at low levels, but retail investors are still panicking and selling off, a typical rookie mentality. This wave of risk release actually presents an interesting entry point.

In plain terms, it's just collective psychological breakdown, and the economy is following suit to be sacrificed.

Basically, when people's hearts are scattered, it's hard to lead the team. A confidence crisis can push the entire economic system to the brink of collapse. This time, it's really a dead end.
