I have some ideas about large holder position strategies:

The first scenario is if you only plan to make short-term profits and then exit, then it’s highly likely to be crushed in the short term. This is standard practice.

The second scenario is if you just want to take profits and do not take responsibility for the project itself, then this on-chain token is very likely to experience a retaliatory surge. Ultimately, this is completed through a rapid zeroing out to reset both market sentiment and liquidity. This tactic has been seen several times in the crypto space, with increasingly sophisticated methods.

The third scenario… (to be continued)

In summary, the intentions behind large holders’ positions directly determine the subsequent market performance. Whether they are long-term optimistic or short-term arbitrage, the difference is significant.

Bro, your analysis has some substance, but to be honest, I've seen the second type of tactic too many times, and someone always falls into the trap. --- Wait, are you talking about the retaliatory surge? Is that the kind of pump trap? It feels like big players' strategies are becoming more and more complicated now. --- What is the third one? Holding back? Come on, just release it. --- Basically, it's about betting on the conscience of big players, but where do the big players in the crypto world get conscience from? Haha. --- This logic is indeed true; a single thought from a big player can change the entire situation. --- If that's the case, then retail investors like us can only guess?

Bro, how come this routine feels more and more familiar? It's either pumping up or resetting to zero again.

That's so true. This is the unwritten rule of the big players; retail investors simply can't see through it.

Is that all after watching for so long? What about the third scenario, bro? Don't keep us in suspense. --- The mentality of big players determines the overall trend. That's right, anyway, retail investors are just following the trend. --- So which one is the most dangerous? I think the second one is the most toxic—pumping and then wiping out, leaving retail investors no chance to react. --- I've seen this routine on certain coins before; I lost a lot back then. Now, seeing this rhythm, I just run away. --- Wait, do you mean that long-term bullish big players will do what? Will they actually stabilize the market? --- I understand the first type of short-term arbitrage dumping, but the second type with retaliatory surges—anything can happen in the crypto world. --- Instead of guessing what big players are thinking, it's better to look at on-chain data; money talks. --- Another big player and another routine—retail investors are just destined to be harvested in this game.
