Recently, there's no need to pay special attention to BTC and ETH; the focus should be on mainstream coins.
Recently, BTC and ETH have been fluctuating back and forth, while mainstream coins remain relatively stable. The reason is simple: institutions and whales mainly hold these two, and they are the first to be dumped when something goes wrong. Most large-scale liquidations you see are concentrated in BTC and ETH. Many mainstream altcoins, after a sharp decline, start to sideways trade because institutions don't hold much in these, and after the selling pressure is released, control becomes more concentrated, making it easier to stabilize or even rebound first. The previous few market crashes followed a similar rhythm. Now, betting on BTC dropping below 60,000 and crashing near 50,000 seems like a low-probability event. If BTC rebounds to the 74,000–75,000 resistance level, mainstream coins have more room to bounce back. The US stock market is still oscillating upward, and after enough sideways trading, the crypto market is likely to see a rebound first, then see if new lows are made. For mainstream coins, focus on XRP, SOL, $DOGE , $PEPE , $SUI , HBAR, LINK—if we follow logic, altcoins tend to rebound more strongly. For example, BIO rebounded 50% in the past two days. But altcoins are hard to grasp, as they are easily trapped. From the risk and profit ratio perspective, choosing mainstream coins is better. Of course, risk management still depends on BTC. If BTC drops below 65,000, this strategy should be scaled back.
