Even the most proficient market analysts have trouble predicting the future with complete insight and calculations. The encryption market is like a vast digital ocean, with rough waves and undercurrents, full of unknown charms and challenges. Just like a weathered mining machine, no one can guarantee whether it will suddenly shut down in the next second, or whether it will miraculously dig out a priceless treasure.
Looking back on the past year, it has been an eventful year for the crypto industry: Bitcoin experienced a brief shock at the beginning of the year and then ushered in a strong rise in the spring. With the arrival of summer, market sentiment has gradually cooled, volatility has increased, and some altcoins have experienced significant corrections. However, at the end of the year, the market surged again, with mainstream currencies hitting new highs one after another, bringing countless bright moments to the industry and generous returns to investors.
Now, with the Year of the Wood Snake upon us, we’re looking to the future in an attempt to demystify the new year in the crypto market. Each "digital snake" is quietly shedding its skin, waiting to show their new attitude. Whether it is the memecoin craze, blockchain innovation driven by artificial intelligence (AI), or the new models brought by DeFi, we will analyze them one by one for you, revealing their potential and risks in the next year.
Fuxi and Nuwa: A metaphor for the creation of an encrypted world
Fuxi and Nuwa are the creation gods in Chinese mythology. The snake body symbolizes the cycle of life and the eternity of wisdom. In the crypto world, their story can be seen as a metaphor for the development of blockchain.
Fuxi invented Bagua, which is like the technical rules and consensus mechanism of blockchain, providing a stable foundation for the ecology. Nuwa’s creation of human beings is like the birth of innovations and applications, such as smart contracts, DeFi and AI-driven blockchain projects. The legends of flooding and patching the sky are analogous to the fluctuations and repairs of the crypto market. Every bear market (flood) will promote industrial innovation, just like Nuwa used colorful stones to patch the sky and promote ecological improvement. The cycle of the snake's body symbolizes the sustainable vitality of blockchain decentralization. Global nodes jointly maintain the system and promote continuous iteration of technology.
The story of Fuxi and Nuwa inspires us: Technology and innovation need to complement each other to make the encryption industry cycle like a snake and live forever.
A Guide to the Year of the Snake on the Chain
Meandering forward, looking for opportunities in stability
Welcome to the Year of the Wood Snake! In this cycle full of hope and uncertainty, the crypto industry is meandering like a snake, gradually finding a new balance from the turmoil of the past. The fable "Snake in the Cup" reminds us that fear and doubt in the market often originate from illusions, and only rationality and insight can seize opportunities in complex environments.
Bitcoin Price: Steady Rise, Volatility Slows Down
As the “leader” of the crypto industry, Bitcoin may show a more stable upward trend in the Year of the Snake. After experiencing fluctuations like a "dragon wagging its tail" in the past year, market sentiment has gradually returned to rationality. This year, wood and fire are both strong, followed by water, then earth, and metal is the weakest of the five elements this year. In the Year of the Wood Snake, the five elements of wood are prosperous, which symbolizes rebirth and growth, indicating that the price of Bitcoin may gradually rise amid shocks. However, the relatively mediocre performance of "water" also means that due to the lower expectations of potential interest rate cuts, the liquidity of funds may be limited, and price breakthroughs require more external driving forces, such as the further improvement of regulatory policies, which will promote traditional finance and retail. Investors further embrace the crypto industry.
- Short-term fluctuations: The start of the Year of the Snake may be accompanied by certain market adjustments, especially affected by macroeconomic and regulatory policies.
- Mid- and long-term trends: As expectations for regulatory relaxations and global liquidity increase, retail and institutional investors are expected to continue to expand, and prices may usher in a clearer upward trend in the second half of the year.
Bitcoin was born on January 3, 2009. The five elements belong to earth and the zodiac sign is Ox. We use monthly horoscopes as a basis to map out the movements, trends and relative changes in the Bitcoin and crypto markets. Make full use of the theoretical advantages of the five elements and the flying stars to transform evil, analyze the changes in various encryption protocols, on-chain applications and investment fields in the next year, and provide corresponding strategic suggestions to help you "prosper and bring wealth".
As the "Ox" whose zodiac sign is trine with the Snake, it is very beneficial to the development of Bitcoin and the blockchain industry. You may meet noble people to help you in the next year to help the industry progress or expand new opportunities. For example, the issuance of $Trump heralds that the industry will enter a new stage at the regulatory level and open up a new path for market development. It is not only an excellent opportunity for the attention of the encryption industry to overflow, but also proves the geopolitical importance and optimism towards the encryption industry. promote. However, in the Year of the Snake, you still need to pay attention to the cooperation of all parties to avoid misunderstandings or conflicts due to poor communication. In terms of wealth, Bitcoin investment returns may be very good and will perform exceptionally in the Year of the Snake. However, it is also recommended to handle high-risk investments with caution, use reasonable BTFD, and beware of excessive FOMO.
As the first auspicious sign of the zodiac this year, the Rooster will strut forward to build win-win potential for each track. The friendship between rooster and snake will further inspire innovation and exploration in the encryption industry. People or related projects born under the zodiac signs of Horse, Rabbit, and Rat will have a glorious moment and enjoy a year full of joy and abundance. Ox, Dog, Dragon and Monkey have good luck, but may have some minor digestive problems. Relatively speaking, sheep, pigs, tigers and snakes may feel anxious and accompanied by stomachache this year due to excessive greed.
In the Year of the Snake, the water element is once again strong in the market, resulting in limited financial liquidity. This indicates that the growth potential at the macro-liquidity level this year may not be very large. The development prospects of water-based industries such as the financial industry are expected to continue to be good, and An immaterial leap. Therefore, investors must be cautious when it comes to the interest rate decisions of the Federal Reserve and the Bank of Japan. However, Bitcoin, which belongs to the wood sign, and the technology industry, which belongs to the fire sign, will still benefit in the Year of the Snake. The wood element is strong in the horoscope and fuels the fire element. Although the fire energy in the fleeting year is not the most prosperous, the strong wood generates fire, and coupled with the nine fortunes of 20 years since last year, fire industries such as technology and telecommunications will make a difference.
In terms of blockchain Feng Shui layout, this year is particularly suitable to focus on industries and applications that symbolize the "South" or "East". These fields are more likely to gain the favor of capital and the support of users; there are also potential opportunities in the "Southwest" and "North" , but it is necessary to avoid the adverse effects of the "northeast" orientation. The southeast direction is guarded by Tai Sui Xingjun, while the northwest direction faces Sui Po, which requires special attention.
The arrival of the Year of the Wood Snake will inject new vitality and hope into the crypto market. Not only is Bitcoin expected to reach new highs, altcoins are also expected to see significant market growth. But at the same time, we need to stay alert in the twists and turns of the trend and look for opportunities in stability, so that we can seize our own opportunities in the volatile market. Although the past four Years of the Snake have presented investors with many challenges, we believe this year will be different. Please remember CZ's famous saying: If you can't hold you won't be rich.
zodiac sign fortune
snake
2025 will be full of challenges for friends who were born in the Year of the Snake. In the year of Tai Sui, "one happiness can block three disasters". Whether you are a builder, investor, or community member, when market sentiment fluctuates, your career, financial fortune, and relationship will also have ups and downs. You should adjust your mentality and be extra cautious. When negative emotions are serious, you can consider traveling more and participating in various activities to resolve them. People born in spring and summer should choose the northwest, while people with cold fortunes (born after August 8 to March 6 in the Western calendar) are suitable to go to the southeast to absorb good luck. The best time to travel is before April of the lunar calendar, such as Consensus HKG in February or ETH Denver in March. It is not recommended for Snake people to take risks in investing during the Tai Sui Year. It is better to defend than to attack. You can hold a more stable position and get through the year safely.
Although Snake people will be affected by Tai Sui in 2025, fortunately, the auspicious stars Tianjie and Jieshen can alleviate these negative effects to a certain extent. These auspicious stars mainly help resolve the disputes and emotional fluctuations of some villains, and bring relatively stable fortune.
horse
Affected by the "Xianchi Peach Blossom", people who belong to the Horse will usher in an extraordinary Peach Blossom Year this year, and they will usher in new opportunities or breakthroughs in both intimate relationships and interpersonal communication. The peach blossoms in Xianchi indicate that it is easy to suddenly get together and suddenly separate from people you know. This kind of fate is often short-lived and not lasting. The auspicious star "Sun" will provide male noble support to Horse people in 2025, especially in May and November of the lunar calendar. It is recommended to take more trips and participate in industry gatherings, especially suitable for the development of Consumer Application type projects with concentrated connections. .
People born in the Year of the Horse can easily promote financial opportunities and obtain additional sources of income through the improvement of interpersonal relationships this year. However, this opportunity tends to be more short-term and should not be overly relied upon. It should be noted that this year there will be two evil stars "Heaven" and "Hui" at the same time, making it easy for established plans to fail and may be forced to be suspended due to emergencies. Do not affect the long-term goals of the plan by chasing market hot spots.
sheep
This year belongs to the year of Sheep, so it is advisable to strive for progress while maintaining stability, not only with bright spots, but also with the help of noble people from afar. Especially builders, BDs, investors and other jobs that require frequent contact with other places, such as builders, BDs, and investors who work hard to attend meetings, are likely to benefit from noble people from far away this year. For Sheep people who have plans to expand the market or further develop global cooperation, this year is a suitable year to take further action. At the same time, people born in the year of Sheep must pay special attention to balancing their energy to avoid overwork or mood swings from affecting decision-making.
Since people born in the Year of Sheep have strong aesthetic and innovative abilities, and the Tai Sui distance means that financial resources from other places will become the key this year, you can try to explore some emerging fields that have a weak sense of space and require local communities, such as AI Agent. This year is the beginning of the "Year of Fire", which is especially suitable for people with cold fortunes (born after August 8 to before March 6 in the Western calendar) to boldly try new opportunities after entering summer on May 6, such as changing jobs or starting new projects.
monkey
People born in the year of Monkey are usually smart and resourceful, with strong adaptability and innovation ability. In 2025, "Tai Sui Xing He" means nobles and villains appear at the same time, and the Xing brings restless changes; the combination means the improvement of popularity and relationships. People born in the year of the Monkey will be full of drama in their relationships this year, and there is a high probability of fake love blossoms. It is recommended to observe carefully for a period of time to avoid being confused by appearances in relationships.
At the same time, people born in the Year of the Monkey will have strong career and noble luck this year, and they will be helped by female nobles, especially female elders, bosses or partners. However, because the "Tianguan Talisman" causes evil and evil at the same time, it is easy to fall into misunderstandings or right and wrong. You need to be extra cautious when communicating with partners and the community. In addition, the Year of the Snake is not a great year for the monkeys. Financial fortunes fluctuate greatly, and it is easy to lose things due to the influence of the evil star "God of Death". Impulsive FOMO should be avoided in transactions, and try to maintain capital liquidity and deal with it rationally.

This year is also guarded by the auspicious stars of "Yue De" and "Lan Saddle". Everything can be turned into good luck, and it can avoid unnecessary FUD and market fluctuations. The improvement of status and influence will also help the project expand its reputation and strengthen the community.

pig
People born in the Year of the Pig may experience major changes in their relationships and careers due to their "confrontation with Tai Sui". This is not necessarily a bad thing, but the polarization is obvious. For people born after August 8 to March 6 of the following year, this is a year to boldly try; on the contrary, people born in the Year of the Pig from March 6 to August 8 need to Be extremely cautious. People born in the Year of the Pig should travel more this year or be in close contact with the global community, which may also bring new opportunities and challenges. It is advisable to be open-minded and look for market opportunities in changes, but it is necessary to make progress while maintaining stability and not to be too radical. Changing tracks cautiously and blindly may lead to a regrettable situation of "if I had known this, why did I do it in the first place?" When encountering market fluctuations, stay optimistic. This year’s lucky fortune is likely to be hidden in areas related to “liquidity”, such as DeFi. At the same time, under the influence of the "Yima" star, if the team relocates, registers a new company entity, or tries to work remotely for a period of time, this energy can be used for effective transformation.
mouse
For people born in the Year of the Rat, 2025 will not be as outstanding as last year, but with the blessings of three powerful auspicious stars "Yutang", "Longde" and "Ziwei", the nobles will have good luck, especially in their career. To stand out. Whether you are looking forward to new breakthroughs in your career or settling down to enjoy last year's results, this year will be an important stage for steady progress. People who belong to the Year of the Rat can take the initiative to seize opportunities, especially in promoting important projects or new cooperation to show your expansion and negotiation skills. There are no evil stars or opposition interference this year, which means there won’t be too many unexpected obstacles in your actions, but you still need to maintain a good attitude and don’t become complacent because of a stable environment. The overall financial fortune is above average, but it is not suitable for overly risky operations. Be cautious about memes and avoid excessive FOMO. Adopting a stable large-currency investment strategy will not only be more stable, but also enjoy longer-term results.
ox
In 2025, for those born in the Year of the Ox, they can get out of the shadow of last year’s Tai Sui conflict and open a new chapter. "Tai Sui Yuan He" can help Ox people get help from distant nobles, but the overall fortune direction needs to rely on their own efforts and hands-on development, and achieve breakthroughs through teamwork and a steady and steady strategy. Due to the "Taisui distant conjunction", people born in the Year of the Ox can participate more actively in community activities, travel to other places to explore more possibilities, or engage in external negotiations, etc., which may bring unexpected gains. At the same time, this year's evil star "Huagai" can bring an explosion of inspiration to people born in the year of the Ox. This is an excellent advantage for people born in the Year of the Ox this year. Whether you are a core contributor to the project, a developer, an investor, or a member of the community, you can contribute more.

Tiger
The pressure brought by Tai Sui will make people born in the year of Tiger often feel uncomfortable in the workplace during the New Year. Personal disputes, communication barriers or project progress obstacles may become one of the main challenges, and it is destined to be an unstable year. "Double offenses against Tai Sui" will increase interpersonal disputes and increase emotional pressure. However, thanks to the blessings of the auspicious stars "Fortune" and "Lucky Star", we can get help from noble people instead of fighting alone. At the same time, the evil star "Jie evil" indicates that you may lose money due to friends, so you need to pay special attention to money transactions. Affected by the "curling tongue" star, it is easy to have disputes with others. It is recommended to place pink objects in the northwest and place a glass of water in the peach blossom position in the southeast to resolve disputes and disputes by "promoting popularity and changing the situation".

Track Focus
The Five Elements Theory (wood, fire, earth, metal, water), as a traditional Chinese philosophical system, emphasizes the mutual generation, mutual restraint and mutual restriction of all things. In the crypto industry, we can also see interesting potential connections between various tracks. The Five Elements theory can correspond to projects in these areas from both a symbolic and functional perspective.
Gold Bank represents wealth, value, trade and exchange, and it is often associated with financial instruments, trading platforms and stores of value. The Jinxing project mainly focuses on promoting value flow, transactions and value storage in the encryption industry, providing core financial services and infrastructure to ensure the efficiency and stability of market transactions and asset exchanges. Representative projects: Binance, Hyperliquid, Uniswap.
Wood represents growth, expansion, innovation and advancement, symbolizing the continuity and development of life. Ethereum's "mid-life crisis" has received widespread attention recently. Monad achieves ultra-high performance through parallel execution technology and high-performance architecture, showing groundbreaking potential in both technical strength and community expansion. In addition, practical social and data infrastructure and other fields may also produce spillover effects and new growth points due to the combination with AI. Representative projects: Monad, Blinks, Vana.
The water element represents mobility, adaptability and flexibility in the Five Elements theory, with a particular emphasis on the free flow of information and value. In the crypto industry, water projects mainly focus on liquidity optimization, DeFi and the rapid transfer and exchange of assets. It usually includes characteristics such as high liquidity and a solid interest-earning foundation. Representative projects: Ethena, Pendle, Aave.
Fire represents passion, change and momentum. It also represents the release of energy and rapid change. Memecoin, AI Agent, and DeSci have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and have established a mutual growth trend of new traffic in Solana, Base, and BNB Chain. Representative projects: Solana, Base, BNB Chain.
Earth represents stability, foundation, accommodation and bearing. In the encryption industry, Tuxing can represent those projects and ecosystems that are stable in terms of technical architecture and have load-bearing functions. They provide a solid foundation for the entire encryption industry to support the construction and development of other applications. BTC has become the barometer of the entire industry, and the Ethereum ecosystem, as a pioneer, has brought broad opportunities to the diversified application layer. USDC has laid the foundation for the US dollar asset anchoring system and helped decentralized finance establish a stable relationship with the huge traditional financial industry. Representative projects: BTC, ETH, Circle.
Outlook for digital nomads
With the rapid expansion of digital nomads and crypto-indigenous groups in the post-epidemic era, and the further recovery of capital market liquidity, the freedom of accounts on the crypto community chain and the freedom of movement in reality are gradually integrating, further promoting the relationship between digital nomads and the crypto economy. Two-way development.
Every year, the blockchain industry’s rapid changes and dizzying changes are redefining the life, work patterns and investment choices of everyone in the crypto community. In particular, the further popularity of cryptocurrency not only simplifies cross-border payments and reconstructs production relations, but also allows more and more homeless people to realize the free flow of wealth, adding a lot of convenience and unlimited imagination to a free life. At the same time, the rise of the crypto-economy is giving some areas new appeal and weakening the constraints of traditional systems on digital nomads.
In recent years, Southeast Asia (Thailand, Vietnam) and Latin America (Argentina, Colombia) are becoming hot spots for digital nomads. The combination of low cost of living and crypto-friendly policies in these areas provides fertile ground for on-chain life.
As the new bull market deepens, it’s time to rethink the digital nomad’s journey in the Year of the Snake. Whether they go to "developer clusters" like Palo Alto or New York, or choose cities with relaxed policies such as Dubai and Lisbon, digital nomads living around the world will usher in a more perfect combination of on-chain freedom and offline life.
