The pullback of BTC this time is quite fierce. It just touched the ceiling of $126,080 in October, and then it fell all the way to around $82,000 on November 21—prices not seen for seven months.

However, the veteran investors are quite calm. Some say this round of adjustment is actually quite healthy, after several months of new highs, the market needs to catch its breath. The high leverage has been cleared, and the speculative positions have also cooled down, which might just pave the way for the next wave of increase.

When BTC is ranging, it is often the time for altcoins to perform. Many analysts are now discussing: will the next major uptrend be led by altcoins? After all, the valuations of many coins are still relatively low, which might be the window period for positioning.

**The recent momentum of XRP is worth noting.** Ripple has been promoting their cross-border payment solution, claiming it can replace the traditional SWIFT system—faster and with lower fees. Interestingly, their technology has even been mentioned in reports from the United Nations Capital Development Fund and the White House. As more institutional adoption cases emerge, XRP's position in the global payment network is becoming increasingly stable.

**Solana and Pepe each have their highlights.** The former's high-performance public chain ecosystem continues to expand, while the latter, as a representative of Meme coins, has maintained community enthusiasm. Assets like these often have explosive potential that exceeds expectations when market sentiment improves.

Of course, bottom fishing requires patience. But if you believe that the altcoin season will come again, certain assets are indeed starting to look attractive at this price level.
