Sometimes that's all it takes—a little distraction shifts where the market's attention flows. When sellers get drawn elsewhere, the buying pressure on alts finally gets room to breathe. It's fascinating how simple sentiment shifts can be. The noise moves capital, capital moves prices.

That's so true, it's that simple and straightforward... When a hot topic emerges, funds follow it. The poor altcoins finally get a breather. The market is like this, noise is the truth.

Noise drives capital, capital drives prices... It's that simple. Retail investors are really being played to death.

Oh, so this is the so-called "attention arbitrage"... Retail investors are attracted away, causing sell-offs to loosen, and alts can breathe. Basically, it's just playing psychology—noise brings in funds and influences prices, one loop after another.

Well, that's right, it's that simple and straightforward... Retail investors follow the trend and sell, institutions are accumulating, it's just a cycle.

Oh my god, this is what we often call "left hand gives to the right hand." When the seller gets distracted, the coin comes alive, and even the air can be turned into a flavor.

Haha, this is the trick I've seen through on the chain over the past ten years—retail investors are attracted to the main chain and run away, while altcoins' trading volumes have the opportunity to surge, and arbitrage opportunities just appear like that.

Distraction is truly a brilliant move. As soon as sellers leave their focus elsewhere, the pressure on altcoins instantly eases, and capital is led around by the nose.

Haha, it's the same old story again. Sellers get distracted for a moment, and my alts can catch their breath. This is hilarious, really.

Oh wow, that's why altcoins suddenly came back to life recently. Turns out the main players were just attracted away, simple and straightforward.
