#机构投资者进入加密市场 Institutional entry has changed the game, and this is very crucial.

According to the latest analysis, 2026 may usher in a winter, but don’t rush to be pessimistic — this time is different. Past bear markets were accompanied by large-scale liquidations, with retail investors bleeding out. Now the market is dominated by institutions, which have comprehensive risk control systems and are less likely to collapse easily.

For us retail enthusiasts, this is a hidden opportunity. What does the influx of institutions mean? Compliance projects, ecosystem improvements, and a surge in interactive demand. They need data, users, and on-chain activity, all of which can be turned into airdrops.

When prices are pushed down, it’s actually the period with the lowest interaction costs. Fields like DeFi, tokenized assets, and infrastructure are laying solid foundations. New projects are emerging constantly, and the airdrop map will become increasingly rich.

My suggestion is to adjust the pace now: focus less on chasing high-priced projects, and pay more attention to new interactions with institutional backing and well-developed ecosystems. Use the least gas fees to complete interactions early on, and wait for the institutional wave to push valuations higher before looking at the returns.

Before the winter arrives, it’s the best time to pick up bargains.
