Here's the estimated profit distribution for the spot market:
- Binance (Fees): 8% – earns from transaction volume, not asset growth.
- Early Whales / Smart Money: 50% – biggest winners, often bought early or accumulated in bear markets.
- Long-term Retail HODLers: 25% – patient investors with DCA or strong conviction strategies.
- Short-term Spot Traders: 10% – those trying to time the market with mixed results.
- The missing 7% is essentially retail losses or wealth transferred to more strategic players.
