There are actually three forces driving this round of Bitcoin's rebound.

On the regulatory front, there's good news—the US SEC has signaled the introduction of a new regulatory framework, even proposing an "innovation exemption" mechanism. In simple terms, this means lowering the compliance threshold for crypto businesses, which has quickly boosted market sentiment.

Even more exciting is Vanguard's sudden change of stance. This asset management giant, which previously showed little interest in cryptocurrencies, is now launching crypto ETFs and fund products on its own platform. Once institutional funds truly enter the market, the game changes completely.

In addition, the market widely speculates that the Federal Reserve may cut interest rates next week. In a low interest rate environment, capital needs somewhere to go, and risk assets like Bitcoin naturally benefit.

However, risks haven't disappeared. The Trump family's American Bitcoin plummeted after investors were allowed to cash out. Tokens like WLFI are also continuing to decline. There's still significant market disagreement, so don't get carried away by the bullish news alone.

Vanguard changing its stance really caught us off guard. The feeling of institutional entry is getting stronger and stronger. That wave of American Bitcoin was a textbook-level rug pull. Luckily, I didn't get involved. How the SEC's framework will turn out still depends on the details. Don't be fooled by the positive news. Interest rate cut expectations have been speculated for so long. Will it really lead to a rise if implemented? Question mark. Institutional funds coming in is good, but retail investors still need to be cautious and avoid buying at the high.

The operations by Pioneer Group this time are really quite aggressive; once institutional funds move, the entire market collapses. However, the American Bitcoin incident was also too shocking—cash-out directly caused a breach. It feels like we still need to stay alert.

Institutions are really coming in now, and this move by Vanguard is definitely reassuring. Just looking at these few signals is enough to make people restless. But don’t get too excited yet—what happened with American Bitcoin crashing was a lesson for us. If you cash out in one go, it’s game over. The interest rate cut narrative is definitely being hyped, but you need to be cautious, or you’ll regret it after getting rekt. If the SEC framework can really be implemented, compliance costs will go down and the ecosystem can expand, but... we’ll have to wait and see. Institutional entry sounds promising, but when the pie gets bigger, some will want to dump. Watch out for those inflated prices.

Institutions entering the market is indeed impressive, but that American Bitcoin move was just insane—crashed as soon as it started. --- The SEC easing regulations sounds great, but the ones really making money are still those old foxes who know how to cash out. --- I have to admit Vanguard’s change of stance this time, but who knows if they’ll backtrack again later. --- All this hype is driven by rate cut expectations; when the actual cuts happen, it might not be so wild anymore. --- Don’t let FOMO scare you into jumping in. With the way things are now, who can really claim they see through it all? --- Feels like institutions are setting up while retail investors are left holding the bag—an age-old story. --- With WLFI dropping this much, someone’s got to be cutting their losses.

Vanguard made a good move here; institutional entry really does change the game. But don’t be fooled by the SEC’s “innovation exemption” talk—it’s still the same old tricks. --- Rate cut expectations plus institutional capital—there’s definitely something to this wave. But that American Bitcoin joke reminds us not every coin is going to moon. --- Hey, SEC pushing innovation exemptions? Looks to me like old wine in a new bottle. Let’s see some real-world results first. --- Vanguard’s change of tune is interesting, but money flowing in doesn’t mean risk has disappeared. WLFI is still dropping—who dares say this round won’t bite back? --- Three forces driving things? Sounds impressive, but all I see is a gamble. Rate cuts might happen, institutions might come in, regulators might flip the script—it’s all just “might.” --- Institutional inflow is great, but don’t forget how American Bitcoin went down. The next casualty could be in your own portfolio.

Institutional entry is indeed a signal, but the American Bitcoin case reminds us not to be too optimistic. --- The SEC framework is genuinely positive, but retail investors still need to be cautious of hidden risks. --- Vanguard's move is quite interesting, but how long can the rate cut expectations really last? --- Three driving forces sound good, but WLFI's decline shows the market isn't that unified. --- Rate cuts plus institutional entry sound perfect, but the risk of cashing out can still wipe you out instantly. --- Will the Fed really cut rates? It all just feels like speculation. --- Institutional funds do change the market, but never forget they're ruthless when it comes to profiting off retail investors. --- Innovative exemptions sound like a windfall, but I’d like to see the final details of the terms. --- The American Bitcoin blowup really should serve as a wake-up call. --- Low-interest, eco-friendly Bitcoin is beneficial, but newcomers need to withstand the volatility.

Another useless innovation exemption? In theory, it should work, but in practice, you still end up paying tuition.
