📉 Market Correction Summary and Risk Reminder

The current market is in a risk contraction cycle, with the altcoin sector under considerable pressure. Notably, tokens issued in 2025 generally perform poorly, with approximately 84.73% of altcoins trading below their TGE levels. Investors should be cautious of manipulation risks associated with highly concentrated tokens and avoid projects lacking fundamentals that are driven solely by short-term narratives. In contrast, AI tokens with real application scenarios and solid value foundations demonstrate better resilience. Investors are advised to remain rational during this adjustment period, avoid chasing gains or panic selling, and focus on project fundamentals rather than short-term price movements.
