Many say that the current little increase is a trap from the whales to continue to make pumps, as a user with a small amount I don't want to think too much about price movements in a short time, even though sometimes I do daily trading but I prefer to save bitcoin for the long term , and I think the little increase is the start of a bull run that will happen soon.
Maybe some but as we take a look at the previous years before halving, we can see things like this happen in the market and I believe this is not a trap but rather consider this as an indication that we are stepping high. Besides, we don't have any basis that it calls a trap, whales can influence the market but seeing the consistent pumping of Bitcoin's price, I don't think so. We'd rather be an optimistic person than just worried about the future.
And you did it right, holding means a lot on the current momentum. Bitcoin will stay strong and reach for another ATH.
