January's off to an impressive start. Bitcoin has already climbed 5.8% in just the opening days of 2026—solid momentum right from the start. What's more telling is what's happening under the surface: liquidity's making a comeback to the market. Capital that had been sitting on the sidelines is starting to flow in again. That shift matters. When you combine strong price action with returning confidence from major players, you get a pretty bullish setup. The year's still in its infancy, but so far, the signals are pointing in one direction. Whether this momentum holds will be the real test, but the early indicators are hard to ignore.

We still need to see whether this wave of liquidity return is real gold and silver or just the prelude for institutions to cut leeks🤔 --- 5.8% is nothing special, what I really care about is which altcoins are about to take off --- Wait, is it too early to say a bullish setup now? I remember the last time I said that, I lost 50% by cutting my losses --- Liquidity return? Alright, then I’ll quickly dig into small-cap coins for 100x opportunities --- Bitcoin is not rising dramatically, but I feel the real market is among those forgotten potential new stars --- From a technical perspective, it’s indeed forming a bottom, but who the hell knows how low that bottom still is --- Starting to talk about consensus and big directions again. Anyway, I’m still going all-in on the small-cap coins I believe in, aiming for quick profits rather than making money on Bitcoin

A 5.8% increase at the start of the year is nothing much; what’s promising is that big funds are starting to re-enter the market.

The start of the year has indeed been a good market, but the ones truly optimistic are those big funds starting to re-enter the market. BTC only rose 5.8% and people are already calling it a bull market. I'll remain cautious. Wait, is this liquidity really coming back, or is it just another scheme to trap retail investors... New year, new atmosphere. Let's see how long it can last.

Uh, here we go again. I've seen the big money entrance trick too many times.

Liquidity is flowing back, large funds are entering the market. This wave is indeed quite something. --- Starting at 5.8%, it's a good beginning, but熊熊 is more concerned about how long it can sustain. --- The warming of the资金面 is a good sign; it all depends on whether it can break through the previous high resistance level. --- Early signals are indeed quite a few, but it's only early January. Don't rush to celebrate. --- Wait, how is this liquidity data calculated? Are there specific numbers? --- Are big players returning? Then should we small investors follow or not? Feeling a bit itchy. --- Hmm… this start to the year looks a lot like the rebound in January 2024. Be cautious of a high open and a low close. --- Dollar-cost averaging investors are cheering; at least for the next few weeks, no need to worry about cutting losses. --- Prices are strong, liquidity is also present, but risk management must not be neglected. --- Is the signal pointing in one direction? 熊熊 suggests observing more and acting less, wait for confirmation.

The start of the year is so bullish, I wonder if it's just the big players celebrating their last hurrah before dumping. Are big institutions returning? It looks like a signal before cutting the leeks. 5.8% is nothing; last time a similar increase was immediately halved. Let's wait and see. Liquidity returning sounds great, but these words are spoken every year. Only real action counts. This wave of rise at the beginning of the year feels like a routine, easy to be fooled. Is it really different this time? I remain skeptical; history always repeats itself. Wait a bit longer before acting; there's no need to rush.

This wave of the New Year market has some substance, with large funds really returning to the scene. Main capital is starting to move, retail investors need to keep up with the pace. A 5.8% increase is just the beginning, is there more to come? The rebound in liquidity is indeed a key signal, but how long it can last is hard to say. Is this a genuine rally or just a trap? We'll know in a few days. The momentum at the start of the year is quite strong; be cautious of reverse K-lines. What does it mean when big players enter the market? Institutions are laying out their plans. Suddenly, so much capital flowing in—could it be a trap to lure more investors?

开年这波行情不错，币圈又开始有点温度了大资金在回场，这才是真信号啊 5.8%只是开胃菜吧，后面才看呢等等，这波能持续吗？感觉有点太顺了流动性回来了属于是，钱在动就有机会

This wave has really arrived, not just talk anymore --- 5.8% at the start of the year, large funds are truly entering --- Wait, is this really a return of liquidity or just another trap to lure more? --- If the main force is pushing in and the increase is only this much, I find it hard to believe --- The last time I said this, I got caught and am still holding --- Liquidity returning is indeed interesting, but how long it can last is a question --- It's the same old story of "signals pointing in one direction," I'm tired of hearing it

This start-of-year market trend is indeed interesting, with large funds moving. The return of flow-based projects is really a highlight, and the next move mainly depends on whether it can stabilize. It feels like a big move is brewing. No matter how good the words sound, it all depends on what happens next; January has just begun. The liquidity is active, and that’s the key.
