You open Binance in the morning and your favorite token is up 20%.
By lunch, it’s down 30%.
Welcome to crypto. 🚀💥
Let’s decode this chaos — without the jargon.
1.Crypto Is a Baby
Bitcoin is barely 15 years old. Ethereum launched in 2015. Compared to traditional finance (which has existed for centuries), crypto is a toddler — curious, loud, and unpredictable. Every small event shakes it up.
2. Liquidity Is Thin
In stock markets, it takes billions of dollars to move Amazon’s price.
In crypto? A few million dollars can pump or dump a small-cap token.
Fewer buyers + sellers = wilder price action.
3. 24/7 Chaos
There’s no “Monday to Friday” in crypto.
Markets run non-stop — even on Christmas.
That means prices can change anytime, from global news to Elon Musk’s tweets at 2 a.m.
4. Hype Moves Faster Than Facts
Crypto isn’t like stocks where earnings and fundamentals rule.
Here, price moves with:
Community hype
Roadmap announcements
Influencer excitement
Sometimes… even just the logo looking cool.
5. Retail Dominates
Most crypto traders aren’t Wall Street pros — they’re regular people. And regular people chase pumps, FOMO into hype, and panic sell during dips. That emotion drives insane volatility.
