The push at 3 a.m. directly shattered my sleep—BlackRock poured in a staggering 2 billion USD.

Everyone in the group was celebrating "Institutional Bull Run," but I was frowning in the darkness.

This scene is all too familiar. It's like you've been fishing in your small pond for years, and suddenly a blue whale weighing thousands of tons appears. A sneeze from it causes a tidal wave, and if it flicks its tail, you're done.

Honestly, Wall Street isn't here to save the day; they're here as precise harvesting machines. In front of their algorithms, retail investors' "faith" is as thin as paper. The era of grassroots counterattacks, where holding a hoe could lead to gold, has officially come to an end with BlackRock's investment.

The logic is simple: what does the entry of big institutions mean? It means the game rules are changing. Their data, capital, and technology are far beyond what retail investors can compare.

But that doesn't mean there's no chance. On the contrary—amid this wave of institutional involvement, projects that still retain community genes and have real ecological support are actually standing firm. For example, puppies, though a small coin, has strong community stickiness, and even top influencers are paying attention. Similarly, projects like JOJO, TTD, DOYR—though small in scale—each have their own logic.

My strategy is simple: watch how institutions are positioning themselves on the big picture, while seeking opportunities in these small projects with strong community support. After all, in the age of exploration, you can't rely solely on lighthouses; you need your own fleet.

The underlying logic of the crypto market hasn't changed—things with genuine community consensus still have long-term vitality.
