Every time crypto prices dip, it feels like the whole world checks out of the market. People lose interest, engagement drops, and prices move sideways.
But what if I told you this is all part of a massive illusion — a carefully orchestrated magic trick?

Because while everyday investors are panic selling and leaving, the whales are quietly buying more than ever before.
Think back to February and March. Prices were falling, sentiment was low, but oddly enough, the news was overwhelmingly positive.
New partnerships, major tech adoptions, bullish headlines everywhere.
And yet — prices kept sliding.
Most people, understandably, drifted away from crypto. After all, who wants to stay interested when their portfolio is bleeding?
But here’s the thing: that’s exactly when you should stay focused. Because the smart money — the whales, the institutions — they weren’t leaving.
They were buying.
According to analytics firm Nansen, Ethereum whales holding between 10,000 and 100,000 ETH increased their holdings by over 12% this year.
This isn’t casual accumulation. This is aggressive strategic buying — at the same time that retail investors were selling their bags.
And that’s the true magic trick: making retail lose interest just long enough for the rich to scoop up assets at a discount.
A lot of people hear “wealth transfer” and imagine some huge, dramatic event — a tidal wave of money moving overnight.
Reality is much quieter.
The first kind of wealth transfer is generational — as older generations pass away, their wealth shifts to the younger ones.
But the second, and more urgent transfer happening right now, is in the financial markets.
When everyday people panic-sell their crypto, where do you think that money goes?
It’s bought up by whales, institutions, and already wealthy individuals.
In a world where inflation is crushing grocery bills and rent prices are skyrocketing, owning assets isn’t optional anymore — it’s survival.
Crypto, for all its volatility, is one of the only brand-new asset classes we will likely see in our lifetime.
It offers a rare shot at significant financial freedom — if you can survive the psychological warfare of market cycles.
Let me tell you a story that highlights how easy it is to squander life-changing opportunities.
A wealthy friend of mine knew someone who, upon turning 30, inherited 10 rental properties from his parents.
These properties were fully paid off — a guaranteed stream of passive income for life.
So what did he do?
He sold eight of them to fund a non-stop party lifestyle — traveling, meeting people, living lavishly.
Last anyone checked, he was down to his last two properties — and even considered selling those to attend another party.
It’s mind-boggling.
As someone who grew up without much, the idea of giving up real, generational wealth for short-term thrills is heartbreaking.
The lesson?
If you are lucky enough to acquire assets, understand what you’re holding — and respect it.
It’s painful to see so many retail investors get shaken out of crypto when the prices dip — because this market was designed for you, not just the wealthy.
Crypto isn’t about instant gratification.
It’s about patiently planting seeds during the bear markets, while everyone else laughs, forgets, or gives up — and then harvesting when the cycle turns.
The next time you think about selling your coins during a downturn, remember:
BlackRock isn’t selling. The whales aren’t selling. They’re buying your future.
Don’t let them.
