The market in 2025 is indeed full of challenges. Looking ahead to the upcoming market conditions, consider from several perspectives:

**First, macro vision, micro execution**. Currently, the crypto world treats cash flow as a hard indicator, but don’t forget that the core driving force of crypto has never changed—it is fundamentally a boundary breakthrough in technology and ideas. Cash flow is important, but it cannot be the only measure.

**The real opportunity lies in**: projects that adhere to innovative concepts while also optimizing fundamentals. In the short term, focus on liquidity and returns; in the long term, see if the ecosystem can truly expand application boundaries. These two need to be balanced, not mutually exclusive.

For digital asset holders, it’s important to understand the market’s realistic logic (cash flow, trading depth) and also maintain confidence in the essential attributes of crypto. This is the attitude needed to navigate cycles.

That's true, but how many projects are truly innovating right now... Everyone is competing over returns, no one wants to focus on building the ecosystem.

Well said. Cash flow isn't everything, but right now, a bunch of projects are just hyping concepts, with terrible fundamentals. Exactly. Projects that can innovate and manage their accounts well are the real players. Short-term gains look exciting, but long-term ecosystem development is the key to making money. That being said, we still need to face reality. Don't rely solely on faith. Haven't there been enough lessons in the crypto world? The phrase "traversing cycles" is pretty good. You need to have that mindset.

Speaking of which, cash flow and innovative ideas really don't have to be opposed; the key is to find projects that can both make money and genuinely do work. --- Talking about crossing cycles nicely, but in reality, it’s about being able to withstand declines and keep a stable mindset. --- Honestly, most people can't tell the difference between true innovation and hype, so in the end, it still depends on trading depth and liquidity. --- This theory sounds comfortable, but whether you can survive in 2025 really depends on whether the cash flow is solid. No matter how beautiful the vision, it has to turn into money. --- The opportunity is indeed there, but you need both vision and capital, and you also need luck. --- So, ultimately, you still need to find projects that can tell stories, make money, and make money while telling stories—both skills are essential.

nah, this is exactly why most bags get rekt. everyone obsesses over cashflow metrics while completely missing the protocol architecture that actually matters. empirically speaking, the projects that survive aren't the ones printing yields—they're the ones building real infrastructure. contrary to popular belief, fundamentals weren't dead, people just stopped looking.

Honestly, the cash flow argument has really made the crypto space too utilitarian. We still need to trust technology, otherwise what's the difference from traditional finance? Long-term holding is about finding projects that have both ideas and practical implementation; short-term gains are just sugar-coated bullets. The key to crossing cycles is not to be confused by short-term rises and falls, but to calmly look at the fundamentals. This paragraph is well written and really hits the point. Too many people now only look at K-line charts. So, we need to return to our original intention, and not measure everything with cash flow, which damages the ecosystem. Those who truly make money are never in a rush; they are focused on building products peacefully.
