The market has been truly confusing lately — a certain asset management giant bought up $600 million worth of BTC and ETH Spot in just three days, and the exchange's inventory is visibly decreasing. As a result, when the Fed chairman stated that there is no rush to adjust the Intrerest Rate, the market evaporated a direct $1.2 billion.
However, upon calm reflection, panic selling often creates opportunities. The actions of this top Wall Street institution have not stopped at all—they have already surpassed the $100 billion mark in their Bitcoin ETF, and they hold nearly 10% of the circulating supply of Ethereum. At this rate of buying, the Spot supply on the exchange will only continue to decrease, and by Q4, a situation of supply not meeting demand may indeed arise.
Ethereum is more worthy of attention: The gas limit plan will increase directly from 15 million to 60 million, leading to a qualitative leap in network performance. A look back at the historical record shows that every major technological upgrade has resulted in substantial growth — after the Byzantine upgrade in 2017, it increased by 367%, after the Berlin upgrade in 2021 it increased by 173%, and the wave in May 2025 even surged by 281%.
The current market environment is actually quite interesting: the probability of a rate cut in December is as high as 86%, the Fusaka upgrade is on the verge, technical bottlenecks are about to be broken, and there are expectations of liquidity easing. Large institutions are entering the market with compliant funds, either following their products or digging into those small ecosystems that haven't been noticed yet.
Is this adjustment a washout or a turning point? Did you buy the dip or cut your losses last night?

Large institutions are crazily hoarding coins, while retail investors are still struggling with whether to buy the dip. This gap is truly incredible.

Large institutions are quietly buying, while retail investors are still struggling with buying the dip and stop loss. The gap is really incredible.

Are large institutions buying while dumping? This trick has been played out for a long time; they just want to scare retail investors out.
The real opportunity lies in the combination of upgrades and interest rate cuts. If Spot really gets tight by Q4, we might see new highs.
I did nothing last night, just watched the show. Anyway, I'll check their ETF data before making any moves.

Big institutions are going on a buying spree, and the coins on the exchange are getting fewer and fewer. This is a signal, brother.
Last night I bought a five-digit amount of ETH in one go, betting on that wave of Fusaka upgrade. The historical data is right here, every upgrade can double.
What the Fed said is scary, but panic is often the best time to buy the dip. A rate cut in December is highly likely, and those still selling are probably the ones who got washed out.
The small ecosystem is indeed easy to overlook; it feels like there might be something to dig into.

Large institutions are madly buying up, should we retail investors really buy the dip? Or is it just another Be Played for Suckers show...

Large institutions have been continuously buying in this wave, and I just want to know if the retail investors' chips for buying the dip are going to be trapped again, haha.

ngl the fed's timing is absolutely shakespearean—institutions accumulate billions then powell says "nah chill" and boom, liquidity evaporates like morning mist. watching the exchange reserves drain while everyone panics hits different when you know what the actual players are doing

Large institutions are frantically buying up, while retail investors are still struggling with stop loss or buy the dip... the gap is truly astonishing.

Large institutions are madly sweeping up goods, and Spot on the exchange is becoming increasingly scarce. This logic is actually very clear.
Buying the dip or stop loss, to be honest, hesitating at this time is the biggest risk.
If the supply-demand imbalance in Q4 really arrives, the current price doesn't look expensive.

The speed at which large institutions are accumulating chips is truly amazing, and Spot on the exchange is becoming increasingly scarce. We might really be able to see a good show later.
