Honestly, this isn't how I expected the year to unfold. We're watching full-scale geopolitical tensions escalate, and the chaos rippling across America—both externally and internally—is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. The instability seems to be spinning out of control.

For those of us in the crypto space, the message is clear: when macro conditions deteriorate like this, it's time to lock in profits. Cash out your positions, convert some holdings into tangible assets. Buy your family a house, secure a vehicle, invest in land. Build real wealth you can touch. The current environment is a reminder that sometimes the smartest move isn't holding through volatility—it's taking gains off the table and settling into stability. De-risk when uncertainty peaks.

Friends who are selling houses to buy coins, wake up and try a reverse operation? --- Is real estate really safer than digital assets? I just want to laugh, property taxes, inflation, liquidity issues—there are a bunch of them. --- Sounds good, but actually just being cowardly. Can't buy the bottom, is that really all the courage you have? --- Tangible assets are indeed attractive, but did you forget that land appreciation also takes a cycle and depends on policy factors? --- Cash out and secure the bag sounds rational but also means missing out. History will prove whose choice is more brilliant. --- Standard operation for geopolitical anxiety sufferers: cut losses, get in, regret, repeat. --- If you really want asset allocation, coins + real estate + gold is the right combo. Why insist on a one-size-fits-all approach?

Haha, coming to advise me to liquidate again? I've already broken even long ago. Now I'm going all-in with spare money. What are you afraid of?

Honestly, cashing out now is a bit too early... I still want to gamble a little more --- It's damn turbulent now, still holding on in crypto? Indeed, it's time to take profits and secure gains --- The real estate and land game is really attractive, but can people in the crypto world really get out? I doubt it --- Tangible assets are reliable, but missing the next rally must be so painful --- This advice makes sense, but who can really do it? Greed kills people --- No, do you really plan to exchange your profits for a house? I just went all in again, haha --- The macro collapse doesn't necessarily mean crypto will collapse; it might actually be the last chance --- Locking in profits sounds easy, but when it really rises, everyone wants to chase in again --- It makes sense, but it all depends on who can withstand the psychological test --- Wake up, we've said the same thing in previous rounds, and the result?

Bro, I've heard this set of words too many times. Every time you say now is the time to run, but the missed gains are even greater than the losses. Wait, are you really going all-in on buying a house? Houses aren't necessarily stable either. Honestly, it depends on individual risk tolerance. I'm the type to hold firmly without wavering. Even if the macro environment worsens, crypto still needs some allocation. Going all-in is too stressful. By the way, cashing out is easier said than done... When it really comes to the critical moment, I can't bring myself to cut. If this round really crashes, I actually want to buy the dip, haha.

According to the database, how many bull and bear cycles have passed since the "big drop, just run" theory last became popular? It is recommended to be listed in the Guinness World Records.

It was about time to clear out our positions; we all know what's going on. Wait, are you really going to withdraw everything? Feels like there's still a chance to push a bit more. Honestly, geopolitical scare tactics don't scare me; people in the crypto space have gone through several cycles. Tangible assets are indeed attractive, but the timing has to be right. This round, we really need to be cautious. Watching others go all-in still makes me a bit nervous.
