#数字资产市场洞察 The US raises interest rates by 25 basis points, the dust has settled, and market expectations have been fulfilled—as expected—the reaction of ETH is quite interesting.



The moment the news was confirmed, Ethereum immediately experienced a pulse-like surge, and after a brief emotional release, it started to retrace. This routine is not unfamiliar, right? The classic "oscillation after expectation fulfillment" rhythm.

Honestly, this rate hike had already been overhyped by the market long ago. Various analyses, guesses, and discussions went on for days. When the dust finally settled, it actually felt a bit anti-climactic—the classic logic in the crypto market is like this: buy the expectation, sell the fact. When the dust settles, what was considered bad news disappears. Bad news turning into good news is vividly demonstrated here.

The market sentiment, suppressed for so long by rate hike expectations, finally gets to vent. The brief surge is essentially an emotional release.

So, what’s in front of us now? The core negative factors have been cleared, and there are no obvious short-term news disturbances. The next move depends on how the main capital flows. The market is watching—will the big players take this window to accumulate at the current price? Once large funds enter and form a force, ETH could shake off the recent oscillation pattern and start a real upward trend.

For investors, what should be the most important thing to do at this stage? Keep an eye on volume changes, track the movements of main capital, and seize the market rhythm during this news vacuum period.

Buying the expectation and selling the facts, this old trick is being played out again with ETH, haha. The boots dropped but there was no sound, the market makers are still holed up, right?

Buying expectations and selling facts is a trap that really never fails, haha, the feeling of counter-peak is well grasped.

Buy the expectation, sell the fact. This time it played out again. Once the dust settles, there will be no story; the main players are the scriptwriters.

Buy the expectation, sell the fact. I'm tired of this routine; now it's all about how the big players move.

Buy the expectation, sell the fact. This trick has been played for so many years and is still the same old crap... Waiting for the main players to accumulate, feels like I have to wait again.
