Odaily Odaily News Trader Bonkguy (unipcs) posted on platform X, stating that for those who missed the recent moves on Robinhood and BNB Chain, these movements may only be a warm-up. This typically occurs in the early stages of a new bull market cycle, or right before the market is about to accelerate. The real trend may begin in the fourth quarter, and when compared to it, the recent movements may only appear as minor fluctuations.Many people missed recent opportunities because they are still affected by their bear market experiences. The defensive habits that protected investors during the bear market may hinder their ability to profit during a bull market. The key lies in recognizing changes in the market environment and adjusting one's mental framework accordingly. Pullbacks will certainly occur as the market develops, but in a genuine bull market, pullbacks are often opportunities to accumulate positions in high-conviction assets. Market volatility may intensify further, and future conditions may exceed what most people expect. Ultimately, those who profit the most may not be the ones trying to predict every single move in the coming days, but rather those who identify the market's direction, position themselves early, and give their judgment enough time to play out.

Odaily News: Wintermute posted on X that the crypto market has rebounded over the past two weeks, with ETF inflows turning positive and stablecoin issuance stabilizing. However, to usher in a full new cycle, the market still needs new sources of capital. Historically, VC and ICO funding in 2017-2018, stablecoins in 2020-2021, and ETFs and digital asset treasury companies in 2024-2025 have all accelerated bull market cycles. RWA could become the next major liquidity channel. Data shows that stablecoin supply grew by over $120 billion within a single year; ETFs recorded cumulative net inflows of $63 billion, while digital asset treasury companies accumulated over $115 billion in holdings.In comparison, RWA attracted approximately $16 billion in capital over the past 12 months—only about one-tenth of the peak scale seen from ETFs and treasury companies in the previous cycle. However, the value of on-chain tokenized assets has roughly doubled within a year to over $30 billion, and this growth continued even during periods of stablecoin supply contraction.Wintermute believes that RWA capital initially flows into traditional assets such as Apple stock and U.S. Treasury funds, rather than directly into crypto assets. But once these funds enter the blockchain, the friction involved in rotating toward Bitcoin, altcoins, and DeFi is expected to decrease significantly. As the regulatory framework gradually becomes clearer and tokenized Treasuries and funds begin gaining acceptance as collateral on trading platforms and within DeFi, RWA could drive a market cycle that unfolds at a more moderate pace and lasts longer.
