The market has indeed been quite dull these past couple of days, until suddenly a few Meme coins moved — like the back of the classroom suddenly exploding, everyone's eyes turning that way.
It's understandable: in a market with dried-up liquidity, trading volume is almost at the bottom. The big players hold the chips but no one is taking the bait, even more anxious than retail investors. If all players run away and trading volume dies out, the market truly becomes a dead pond where no one can make money.
So this round of pump is actually "supplying oxygen" — making some accounts briefly turn red, creating some heat and engagement in the market. Retail investors see their accounts rising, feel a bit hopeful, and are willing to stay in the trading. The market needs stories, needs to look like there’s still a chance, so it can maintain its heat.
The question is, how long can this flame last? Is there really continuous capital follow-up to go long, or is it just a short-lived rebound? This will determine whether the upcoming movement is a real trend start or just a fleeting moment.

The way of saying "giving oxygen" is spot on, that's exactly the vibe. The market makers are more anxious than we are.

It's the same trick again—giving oxygen to retail investors to keep them alive. I've seen it too many times.

It's the same old "oxygen poisoning" trick again; retail investors are just waiting to be boiled like frogs in warm water.

Here comes the oxygen again. I've seen this trick too many times, I'm just worried that I might wake up and see it drop back again.
