[Opinion: Stay Away from Leverage and Altcoins; Survival is Paramount in a Bear Market] Odaily Planet Daily reports that OneKey founder Yishi stated that financial markets trade not yesterday's sentiment, but rather expectations of future consensus and liquidation. The recent continuous decline in Bitcoin and the crypto market has disappointed many investors and caused asset drawdowns, but the worst thing to do now is to despair. Market clearing and liquidity depletion are part of the cyclical evolution; similar situations occurred in 2015, 2018, and 2022, and 2026 will be no exception. Yishi advises staying away from leverage and high-risk lending, avoiding betting on the bottom of the cycle, reducing exposure to altcoins, and abandoning the illusion of quick riches; maintaining core spot positions while ensuring sufficient cash flow to sustain a normal life. In severe market conditions, survival is always the top priority; investors should remain patient and disciplined.
