The crypto market has long changed beyond recognition. During the prosperous years, you could pick any project and see it double, even multiple times, with profits within reach. But now? Those opportunities for wild growth have disappeared.

Why? It all comes down to a few points. First, there are no new narratives to drive interest, and the hype topics are becoming increasingly weak. Second, the on-chain ecosystem has been drained by scam projects, liquidity is constantly being dispersed, and the market is filled with scam coins, leaving retail investors battered and exhausted. Additionally, the explosive growth in the number of projects, coupled with waves of token unlocks, has created enormous supply pressure, making it impossible to push prices higher.

If you want to recreate those explosive profit opportunities now? It’s just a daydream. The market has matured, opportunities are less wild, and risks have doubled in return.

You're right, I've long been tired of the local dogs taking turns to cut the leeks. Hmm... actually, there are new narratives, it just depends on who can come up with a story to fool the market. Rather than waiting for huge profits, it's better to learn to cut losses. The risks are indeed higher now. Really? I actually think there are still opportunities, but it requires better judgment. Wait, are you trying to persuade me not to play? There are definitely projects that can double your investment, you just have to step on more pits to find them. The idea that liquidity is being dispersed is a bit absolute.

I already said it, who still expects the 2021 scenario? Mongrels everywhere, liquidity fragmented, retail investors have become the only product of harvesters of leek. New narrative? Ha, it’s been worn out by capitalists long ago. Instead of daydreaming, it’s better to learn risk management, brother. Unlocking a wave after wave of trends, it’s no wonder prices can only go up. Entering the market now is like gambling with your life; even choosing the right track is difficult. Face the reality, the era of greed is over.

You're right, I saw through it a long time ago. If you're still dreaming of tenfold coins now, you really need to pay your tuition fees. That last wave really won't come back; liquidity has been drained. The local dog projects are too fierce. Instead of waiting for explosive gains, it's better to manage risks properly. That's the way to survive in 2024. Previously, buying casually would lead to gains, but now a wrong choice can cut your gains in half. The benchmarks are different. Honestly, the current market cares more about who can survive the longest rather than who rises the fastest. There are new opportunities, but you need to be more cautious; the screening threshold has risen. I now hold what I can, no longer chasing high with reckless operations. I'm afraid of getting trapped. Project teams are unlocking tokens crazily, retail investors are becoming the bagholders. The game rules have changed. You can't keep dreaming; staying grounded actually helps you survive longer. This round has really revealed the survivor bias; what's left are those with ideas.

Laughing and then crying, once caught the leak and doubled, now caught the leak and doubled losses After the wave crashes the previous wave, this year's wave will be next year's chives There are so many dirt dog projects, retail investors are getting soft, indicating the market is maturing (breaking into tears and then laughing) The new narrative is gone, the wave of unlocking old projects rises, this wave of supply pressure is indeed unbearable From a dream of getting rich quickly to a daydream, it's only been a year or two Still want to grow wildly now? Brother, you must be living in a parallel universe The opportunity is gone, risks are doubled, this deal is becoming less and less worthwhile Back then, buying randomly meant making money, now buying randomly means losing, the market's woman has changed her mind Liquidity has been fragmented and dispersed, prices simply can't be pushed up, the data is right here A bear market is like this, only when the dream shatters do you realize what reality is
