Why I Stopped Trusting Crypto ‘Success’ Stories

I used to think crypto trading was about skill—until I realized the game wasn’t built for people like me. Behind the hype and flashy charts, there’s a system designed to keep you chasing wins that rarely come. Every "success" story I saw felt staged, like part of a script I wasn’t given.

Exchanges don’t make money when you do. They profit from your moves—your trades, your leverage, even your mistakes. The influencers flaunting their wins? They’re part of the show, not the solution. The platforms push drama, not discipline, because excitement keeps you hooked. I learned the hard way: what looks like opportunity is often just a trap in disguise.

I don’t blame myself for losing anymore. The real failure was believing I could win on their terms. My biggest profit? Walking away.
