Today, the S&P 500 fell by 1.2%, but interestingly, BTC broke through the $95,000 mark, with a single-day increase of 3.03%. This is not retail investors following the trend; the real players are institutions.

On the US stock side, risk aversion sentiment is heating up, and large funds are starting to shift into the crypto market. This signal is very clear. The $95,000 level is not the ceiling; industry consensus points to $100,000 — as long as trading volume can effectively break through these key levels, the target has a chance of being achieved.

In simple terms, the driving force behind this wave of market movement is not retail investors, but larger funds reallocating assets.

Data shows that institutions are moving, while retail investors are still sleepwalking. Let's wait and see if the trading volume can truly support this wave of gains.

Institutions are really aggressive in bottom-fishing, retail investors are trapped and still catching flying knives --- Did 95k break? Wait until 100k to call me, it's still a volatile market --- It's called a safe-haven allocation in nice words, but basically it's big funds playing new tricks to cut leeks --- Trading volume is the real boss, breakouts without volume are all fake --- S&P drops while crypto rises, this contrast is truly incredible, what are institutions bottom-fishing for --- Been hearing about 100k for over a year, I'm exhausted --- Real players? Why am I still losing, lol

Wow, the institutions' move this time is really brilliant. When the US stocks fall, they rise. This is the game rule of big funds. 100k is right in front of us; once the trading volume breaks through, it will definitely be in place. Retail investors are still studying candlestick charts, while others are already allocating assets. 95k is just the beginning; breaking 100k is only a matter of time. Honestly, there aren't many retail investors who understand the logic behind this move; most are still experimenting blindly. This is the true flow of safe-haven funds, a classic rotation of risk assets.

Institutions throwing money around are just different; retail investors are still debating whether prices will go up or down, while they already got on board. --- Breaking 95K is just the beginning; 100K really isn't a dream this time. --- US stocks fall, BTC rises; funds are voting. --- To be honest, those in the know can see it clearly—big money is moving the market. --- If the trading volume is sufficient, there’s indeed hope; the key is whether this candlestick can hold steady. --- Here comes that institutional theory again; fine, I choose to believe it this time.

Institutions are really quietly accumulating, while retail investors are still passing the baton below. 100k is just around the corner, but the issue is whether the volume can be enough to support it. When the S&P drops, BTC rises. This inverse operation is already very obvious.

The signals for institutional bottom-fishing are so obvious, yet retail investors are still hesitating about whether to get on board.
