The cryptocurrency market today has been highly volatile. Bitcoin fell below the 96K mark, with short-term fluctuations clearly intensifying. Several mainstream assets experienced short-term rallies followed by pullbacks, putting some pressure on market sentiment.



From an investment perspective, AI cryptocurrencies remain the focus of capital chasing. Meanwhile, discussions around Ripple (XRP) continue to heat up, with many investors pondering whether it has a chance to break the psychological barrier of $100.

There are also new developments at the policy level. A leading compliant platform publicly opposed the draft of the Clarity Act and withdrew support for the Senate crypto bill, reflecting ongoing struggles between the industry and regulators.

Notably, BitMine secured $200 million in funding to support related projects, while traditional financial giant Fidelity expressed the view that Bitcoin may be entering a "super cycle" phase. These signals all indicate a market optimistic about long-term prospects.

96K once it's broken, it's broken. Anyway, I've already sold half... AI coins are still bleeding this wave, but XRP hitting 100? Dream on, buddy.

I'm skeptical about that BitMine funding, and Fidelity is just for listening. The term "super cycle" has been heard at least a hundred times in the past two months.

What are they messing around with on the policy side? The results are the same anyway. Players who want to buy, go ahead.

Bitcoin falling below 96K directly indicates that the market makers are shaking out positions. Don't be scared out, everyone. Bottoming out has to be played like this [Thinking]

XRP hitting $100? Wake up, buddy. This is just the project team pumping the price to trap retail investors. The technicals are a mess.

Fidelity mentioned a super cycle, I knew it. Institutions are starting to accumulate again, while retail investors are still chasing high prices.

AI coins do have some heat, but I advise you not to follow the trend. Support levels haven't held, be careful of getting trapped.

The policy opposition to that draft precisely shows the industry is in a struggle. There will be short-term volatility. Risk control must be in place, everyone.

BitMine raising 200 million looks impressive, but that doesn't mean the market bottom. We still need to observe the daily chart.

Bearish outlook, but this rebound is indeed trying to recover 96K. Isn't it cautious to be bullish?

Short-term volatility is increasing, so reduce your positions. Don't be fooled by intraday surges. I've seen too many retail investors get caught like that.

Is this correction healthy or a prelude to a crash? The key is whether the four-hour K-line can hold this level.

Everyone, stay calm. Before entering, ask yourself if you have a stop-loss plan. If not, don't touch it.

96K has been broken... here we go again, really acting this play every day

XRP hitting 100 dollars? Dream on, better to stabilize at 50 first

Fidelity talks about a super cycle, I just listen and don't believe it, capitalists' mouths are full of lies

BitMine raising 200 million feels a bit虚, why rush with real money

Policies keep changing back and forth, AI coins are more reliable, following hot money is the right move

96k broke and we have to buy the dip again. Is this really the last fall this time? Haha

XRP to $100? Uh... I don't believe it. Wake up, everyone.

Fidelity talking about a super cycle, I just laugh. I've heard this excuse before last year.

AI coins are still going crazy, I really don't understand. It's just a money-burning game.

Policy reversals, well, get used to it. Tomorrow will be another set of excuses.

A bunch of good news about financing, but if it doesn't go up, that's the real deal.

The coins in hand have shrunk again, but this is the true cultivation, everyone.

96K doesn't panic even if it breaks, anyway I am a long-term holder, this wave of correction is just a shakeout

XRP to $100? Dream on, but betting a small amount to play around is not a bad idea haha

Fidelity said the super cycle, I believe it, after all institutions won't just boast randomly

The policy part is still the same old story, repeating over and over, get used to it

When the financing news comes out, it's basically a bottom signal, with 200 million USD right here, there's something to it

The AI coin boom this round is really amazing, my friend bought the dip again today

Short-term volatility intensifies? So what, Bitcoin is like this, nothing surprising

This rhythm feels like gathering strength, there is still a chance for the next wave to rise

96K broken? Here it comes again, this point always surprises everyone. By the way, XRP hitting 100? Wake up, everyone, you're dreaming.

AI coins are really wild this time, continuously draining other assets...

Rich Dad is optimistic about the super cycle, but what about us retail investors? Still just a part of the leeks.

Anyway, I just watch and don't follow the trend.

96k broken? Here we go again... Weren't we just stabilizing? This fluctuation is really a bit annoying.

XRP to 100? Dreaming, or is there really a chance? I can't tell.

Fidelity talks about a super cycle... Alright, let's believe it for now.

AI coins are still being hyped? I tell you, it's time to clear your holdings.

Policies are still bickering, when will this finally settle down?
