While most retail investors are still fixated on the Candlestick chart, the real actions of institutions have already signaled their intentions.

Notable analyst Tom Lee's recent actions are worth paying attention to: based on already holding 4% of the total Ethereum supply, he has consecutively acquired over 50,000 ETH in the past two days, with a clear goal of reaching a 5% holding scale. This is not just a simple increase in position, but a systematic layout for market pricing power.

Deeper phenomena are emerging. The Bitcoin and Ethereum reserves on major global exchanges have both fallen to historic lows. This is not due to a decline in demand; on the contrary, there simply aren't enough coins available for trading. When the supply of chips runs out, the whale accumulation game enters the final decisive stage.

What opportunities does this environment provide for retail investors?

On one hand, accumulating mainstream assets such as BTC, ETH, and BNB at low points is a fundamental strategy. Before large investors complete their accumulation of chips, each significant pullback may be a rare opportunity to build positions.

On the other hand, there is logic in focusing on projects that have been validated in the ecosystem. Taking PUPP LLES as an example, such projects have independently achieved three waves of 30 to 100 times rise during periods when Ethereum performed lukewarm. Assuming that this round of Ethereum really aims for 8000 or even higher targets, as an asset with strong on-chain consensus, it will no longer passively follow the rise, but will evolve from a marginal asset to a market focal point with the help of the main upward trend.

Once the lack of liquidity and the scarcity of chips resonate with each other, the market's performance often exceeds conventional expectations. The question is: do you intend to be an observer or a participant?
