Entering the last week of December, the market presents an interesting phenomenon of fragmentation.

Traditional finance is bustling—today's release of the Bank of Japan policy summary, Federal Reserve FOMC minutes, ADP employment data, followed closely by PMI and EIA crude oil inventories. But just look at the performance of the US stock market, the first trading day after Christmas was basically flat with little volatility. Ultimately, with the New Year's Day holiday approaching (US markets closed on January 2nd, and many Asian and European markets closed early), institutional funds have long moved to safe havens, and the entire traditional market has entered "holiday mode."

However, the crypto space tells a different story. Bitcoin directly broke $90,000 during Asian trading hours, igniting the entire crypto ecosystem, with related stocks collectively rising.

This pre-holiday window has several directions worth paying attention to: BTC remains the core anchor point, with the breakthrough of the $90,000 integer level being the only main focus for pre-holiday funds; ETH, as the most stable correlated asset during BTC's upward trend, is a must-watch for swing trading; as for related stocks like BitMine, Coinbase, MARA, their potential remains.

But a reminder: the pre-holiday pace is fast, just follow BTC's rhythm, and don't be greedy—when it’s not moving up, exit decisively. Safety first at this time.

BTC0,24%

ETH0,39%

Institutions are all on vacation, but we crypto folks are partying at the 90,000 mark haha It's a bit disappointing that 90,000 hasn't been broken yet, but this timing is indeed perfect Follow BTC's rhythm, don't be greedy. This advice is spot on Funds before the holiday are like this, traditional markets are dead and dull, only the crypto circle is truly alive Whether ETH keeps up is really the key in this wave Wait, how's that target for BitMine doing? Did anyone get in? Indeed, it's even more important to be cautious during holiday mode Will this 90,000 threshold be broken again next time? Traditional finance is sleeping soundly, while the crypto circle is having fun on its own—this sense of disconnection is so real Safety first, well said, don't risk it before the holiday If it can't rise, just exit. This is the wisdom of the working class

Traditional finance is on holiday, and institutions are still hiding, but our crypto circle is getting lively. The difference is incredible. Breaking 90,000 for BTC is really exciting. We need to be cautious before the holiday. Follow Bitcoin's rhythm, don’t be greedy—this is really important. Safety is the main course. All institutions have run away, and we're still playing with fire here. It's risky. Keep a close eye on ETH. When BTC rises, ETH is the most stable, but don’t expect to make big profits. This pre-holiday window is just a trap. Capital flow is moving very quickly. Breaking the 90,000 threshold means it's over? I feel like this is a trap. The pre-holiday mode is activated. I choose to dodge decisively.

Traditional finance is on holiday, but the crypto world is booming, breaking through 90,000 easily Institutions have all left, and retail investors might actually have a chance? ETH's steady rise is real, but don't be greedy at this moment

Traditional finance is on holiday, but our crypto is going crazy... Breaking 90,000 and taking off directly, it's really outrageous.

Once the 90,000 break occurs, the inflation begins. Traditional markets sleep while we get excited. This feeling is truly amazing.
