You’ve seen them:

“If You Have 10,000 of Coin X, Here’s How Much You’d Have If It Reaches $0.01, $0.1, or $1.00!”

And the article proceeds to show you… multiplication.

Look, I get it—hope is part of the crypto game. Everyone wants to imagine their tiny bag turning into a Lambo. But if you need an article to calculate 1,000 × 0.1, I’ve got bad news: your biggest investment risk isn’t the market—it’s you.

The Problem Isn’t the Math—It’s the Illusion

These articles sell you dreams, not analysis. They dress up basic arithmetic as insight. And in doing so, they lure in readers who:

  • May not understand market cap.

  • May not grasp circulating supply.

  • May not realize that a coin jumping 100x is rare—and often unsustainable.

It’s financial clickbait, and it preys on low financial literacy.

What You Should Be Asking Instead:

  • What’s the total supply of this coin?

  • What would the market cap be at $1? Is that even feasible?

  • How is this project actually being used?

  • What’s the tokenomics—are devs dumping on you?

  • Are you investing… or just fantasizing?

Crypto Needs Better Literacy, Not More Fantasies

If you're in this space, learn the basics:

  • How to read a market cap.

  • What volume and liquidity mean.

  • Why coin supply matters more than the price alone.

Because if you don’t understand those things, you're not investing—you’re gambling. And in a casino you don’t understand, the house always wins.

So here’s my version of those articles:

“If You Have 1,000 Coins and They Go to $1, You Have $1,000. Now go learn something useful.”

Crypto isn’t a get-rich-quick game. It’s a learn-fast-or-lose-faster game.
