Recently, S&P 500 futures broke through the 7000-point mark for the first time, which is indeed rare in trading history. The main drivers are nothing new—ample liquidity, expectations of interest rate cuts, and continuous inflows from ETFs. Traditional finance is booming, but will it spill over into the crypto realm?

Honestly, this correlation has indeed been strengthening lately. Once macro risk appetite rises, market participants start looking around. After mainstream cryptocurrencies are well-fed, attention naturally shifts to new hotspots within the ecosystem. For example, the recent popular projects on Ethereum are expanding their exchange coverage, and many are quietly paying attention.

This kind of rotation phenomenon has repeatedly occurred in history—when the overall market rallies, risk appetite increases, and funds start flowing into more promising assets. Do you think this breakthrough in traditional markets can bring a real rally to the crypto sector? It’s a topic worth discussing.

Oh my, this wave of the S&P is really fierce. It feels like traditional finance money is flowing somewhere. Betting that this wave can boost primary market follow-up trading. It all depends on what the Federal Reserve does next; the key is the interest rate cut expectations. Wait, is this round about to replay the story of 2021 again? After mainstream coins explode, small tokens take off. I've long prepared to catch the last train. When the market comes, it's always the same pattern: money flows into high-risk assets.

7000 points is indeed outrageous, but to be honest, the easy liquidity isn't necessarily all good news for us. Mainstream coins have already taken off, now it depends on whether those small projects within the ecosystem can keep up. There are indeed quite a few things on Ethereum quietly making big profits. Whether this round can truly burn into crypto depends mainly on retail investors' wallets. A booming traditional market doesn't necessarily mean there will be surplus funds flowing in. This rotation pattern is always the same: after Bitcoin rises, it's the turn of ecosystem coins. History always repeats itself. Wait, is the expectation of interest rate cuts real? It feels a bit uncertain lately, and I'm hesitant to make a move.

Ha, wait, can this wave really be transmitted? I'm skeptical.

Breaking 7000 points, but we still need to see when crypto will explode.

Hmm... Watching the S&P break 7000, I keep wondering when it will be our turn to break through. Really, when big funds come in, their instincts are never wrong. This time, it's probably not just hype. After mainstream coins rise, it's always about the altcoins. That's always the pattern. It looks like the Ethereum ecosystem is eager to make a move.

Haha, Bitcoin is really taking off, and the spring for small coins might truly be here.
