Recently, driven by institutional buying power, Bitcoin briefly rose to $122,000 yesterday (11th), while Ethereum reached $4,350 on the same day, both challenging their historical highs (Bitcoin's previous peak: July 2025, $123,000; Ethereum's previous peak: November 2021, $4,870).
Chinese Aunties Start Paying Attention to Crypto Market
In this context, Twitter user @_FORAB also revealed on X platform yesterday (11th) that with the recent rise of Bitcoin and Ethereum, Chinese stock aunties and uncles who usually trade A-shares have started to pay attention to crypto investments.
It's worth mentioning that as outsiders, Chinese stock investors have been defining mainstream cryptocurrencies in particularly simple language while sharing knowledge about the crypto field. Let's see how they view cryptocurrencies:
Bitcoin is digital gold.
Ethereum is the NVIDIA of the crypto field.
BNB is the CITIC Securities of the crypto field.
XRP is the strongest hot currency in Japan and South Korea.
SOL is the leading casino in the crypto field.
Dogecoin is the leading currency backed by Musk.
Pudgy Pengu is the leading Non-Fungible Token in Europe and the US.
TRON is the exclusive blockchain of the strongest stablecoin USDT.
USDT is the world's first stablecoin.
USDC is the US-compliant stablecoin.
Trump's WIFL: 1 u equals 1 coin. However, some netizens added that after WIFL's opening, 1 u at 1 coin might be hard to grab.
Will Chinese Stock Investors Be a Contrary Indicator?
However, it's worth noting that some community members are cautious, wondering if the fact that Chinese aunties and uncles are starting to pay attention to crypto investments in a country that has long banned cryptocurrencies might indicate that the market has become too hot. Some netizens even joked:
Hope the aunties and uncles don't end up sliding down with their favorite leading currencies...
