He pointed out that European defense expenditure has been as low as around 1% of GDP, and is now about 2%. Pantekidis stated that, on average, spending may rise to around 3% to 4%. ETF investors can invest in nuclear energy through the Range Nuclear Renaissance Index ETF (NUKZ), which tracks companies in the nuclear fuel and energy industry. For defense investments, there is the Global X Defense Tech ETF (SHLD).
Crypto is sluggish, U-based financial management ensures safety
The crypto market has also been dormant for a long time. Some believe Bitcoin has become a traditional financial product, trending in line with macroeconomic and US tech stock movements, while Altcoins are even more miserable, with their spring seemingly delayed. The second-largest market cap cryptocurrency, ETH, not only failed to reach a new historical high during this Bitcoin bull market cycle but has recently dropped below $1,800, leaving investors disheartened.

Cryptoquant founder and CEO Ki Young Ju recently cited on-chain data analysis, believing the Bitcoin bull market cycle has ended. He focuses on the relationship between "Realized Cap" (total capital flowing into the market) and "Market Cap" (price-based valuation). The chart shows a bearish trend: Despite capital inflows, prices have not risen, indicating the market has entered a bear market.
He also referenced historical data, believing that market reversal might take at least six months, consistent with past cycles (such as the market downturn during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020).
If investors want to avoid significant price volatility risks, besides participating in airdrops, keeping USDT in exchange for current financial management, or staking on-chain for stable returns, these are conservative ways to survive the winter.
Believing the bull market will come! "Fixed investment" or "Dual Currency Financial Management"
For investors who believe the market downturn is temporary and still want to buy the dips, besides continuing "fixed investment", they can also consider "dual currency financial management" - earning additional short-term income by selling options. The drawback is - if the price drops, you'll be forced to buy the corresponding cryptocurrency at a price higher than the current market price. For example, the Japanese version of MicroStrategy, Metaplanet, uses this strategy to continuously "target buy" Bitcoin, creating a different path from Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy).

Traditionally, dual currency investment is more suitable for range-bound market trading strategies. Once the price breaks through or falls below your perceived high and low points, the forced currency conversion will cause market-to-market (MTM) loss. Therefore, the suggestion is to choose a price you feel "comfortable" with - the low point where you want to buy the dips, and the high point where you want to take profits. This is a more appropriate investment strategy.
Reserve cash, invest only with "spare money"
A reminder in this uncertain market environment: the money for investment or buying the dips must be "spare money". First, ensure you have living expenses and emergency funds for at least six months, and only then invest the remaining spare money into the market. This ensures you won't panic too much when the market drops (panic is inevitable, but remember investment is a psychological training), and won't be forced to close positions at the lowest point due to urgent cash needs.
