Wall Street has quietly started to move.

In recent days, the market has been volatile, with retail investors following the non-farm payroll data trend everywhere—chasing gains and selling losses, a familiar pattern. Meanwhile, institutional big players are quietly accumulating. Wells Fargo recently spent $383 million to buy Bitcoin, and this is just the beginning. Insiders reveal that several major American banks are quietly building positions.

Looking at the current market situation, it’s quite ironic: retail investors are repeatedly being shaken out around the $90,000 mark, while whales in $BTC and $ETH are aggressively accumulating during every dip. During sharp price drops, panic is at its peak. But it’s precisely during these times that professional funds are doing the right thing—buying the dip.

This also explains why the crypto logic has changed by 2026. What was once a game for small retail investors is now being approached with real money by traditional financial institutions. The entry of players like Wells Fargo indicates what? It shows that they have done the math. The topics of $BTC and gold are no longer just theoretical—they are real asset allocation issues.

Every major decline is a reshuffle. When others are fearful, institutions are buying chips. This wave of panic might be the starting point for the next trend, and we’ll see the outcome by the end of the month. 🚀

BTC-0,14%

ETH-0,73%

Retail investors are still getting repeatedly cut at 90,000, damn it I got trapped again --- Wells Fargo 3.83 billion? Really, is this market so hot now? --- Alright, here comes another show where institutions eat the meat and retail investors drink the soup --- Wait, does this mean that my bottom-fishing now is actually halfway up the mountain? --- See the end of the month, what a joke, my gas fee has long hit the bottom --- No, if institutions are really building positions, why are they still pushing down? --- I just want to know who these "insiders" are, I also want to join this group --- Damn, I’m about to be harvested by big players again

Retail investors are still struggling at 90,000, while others have already invested 383 million. The gap is truly huge.

Retail investors are still stubbornly holding at 90,000, while institutions have already been well-fed at the bottom, a satire. Another cycle of being cut, this time Wall Street finally can't sit still anymore. Wells Fargo invested 383 million, isn't other banks far behind? The pattern of the capital market has really changed. The worst part is this: when you're panicking, it's exactly when others are bottom fishing. What does institutional entry mean? It means the good days for retail investors are coming to an end. Ultimately, it's still an information gap. While we read the news, they are quietly making big profits. Wait, can this wave really be seen clearly by the end of the month? Feels like they're just painting a pie again.

Retail investors are still struggling at 90,000, while big institutions have already jumped in. This is the gap. Institutions are accumulating chips, while we are still trembling while watching the K-line chart. Major investors like Guo are already sweeping up, indicating that the bottom is not far away. Don't panic, there will be an answer by the end of the month. This wave of decline is an opportunity for the next round of buyers to step in.

It's better to call it buying the dip, but to be blunt, this is just a new trick to cut the leeks. Institutional entry = retail investors as bagholders; history always repeats itself. Wells Fargo 383 million? Haha, it's just to pump the market and make us stand guard at high positions. Don't be fooled by the phrase "asset allocation"; they eat the meat while we drink the broth. Wait a minute, if you think about it the other way around... if institutions really come in, then we have hope? Or is it just self-soothing? Let's see the results at the end of the month. For now, cut half to stop the loss.

Retail investors are still repeatedly getting cut at 90,000. Meanwhile, they quietly poured in $383 million. The gap is really huge. Institutions have already calculated everything, and we're still watching the K-line and crying. To be honest, this wave of entry by traditional finance has changed the entire game. Small investors are really finding it increasingly difficult. During times of panic, that's when others are absorbing the chips. How familiar is this cycle? Shakeout, shakeout—at the end of the day, it's that old saying—when others are fearful, I am greedy. But if we do the opposite, we'll get trapped dead to rights. The real show will be at the end of the month, but it feels like we're again destined to be the ones running behind. What does the move by Wells Fargo this time indicate? It shows they are not afraid at all because they can't afford to lose.

Retail investors get squeezed, whales accumulate, after playing this game for so many years, some still fall for it You keep running back and forth at 90,000, while others directly invest 383 million, what a gap Panic is the perfect time to build positions at low points, but how the market will move by the end of the month is really hard to say That's why you need to follow the smart money and not follow the herd The entry of Wall Street has changed the game rules The era of retail investors is indeed over, now it's an institutional feast Buying the dip is still the most ruthless move; watching the K-line plunge and losing your composure will lead to big losses
