In the world of cryptocurrency, many investors have drawn a bitter lesson: silence is often safer than speaking up. Because once advice is given, whether right or wrong, the outcome is usually unavoidable—becoming a "Scapegoat" when others incur losses.
In the year 2019, when ETH was below 120 USD, many analyses pointed out that this was a good buying zone. However, instead of patiently holding onto fundamentally strong assets, many investors rushed into "cheap" coins just because of the mindset of "who knows, it might pay off big." As a result, many projects collapsed, capital vanished, and the blame was often placed on those who had warned.
By 2021, when the meme coin wave exploded, a familiar scenario repeated itself: recommendations based on data, reports, and analyses were seen as "tedious and lengthy". Instead, many chose to go "all in" with high leverage, believing in the quick-rich story. And only after a market crash did all illusions fade away, leaving behind both financial and emotional pain.
The reality also shows that even when given the right guidance, many people find it hard to maintain discipline. There are cases where a small capital multiplies many times in a short period, but instead of preserving the gains, they quickly "open their own shop", betting everything on random coins. Just one wrong decision has wiped out all previous efforts.
That's why many people who have gone through multiple market cycles draw a single conclusion: to remain silent. When they see others bragging about a 300% profit, they just smile in appreciation. When they see someone losing 90%, they can only light a candle in mourning. And when asked, "where should I enter?", the most reasonable answer is sometimes just a joke: "Ten dollars a time, please consult a professional fortune teller."
The crypto market is inherently harsh. People often do not need the truth, but only want to hear what they hope for. Therefore, sincere advice often becomes a burden. And perhaps, during the bear market phase, silence is the wisest defensive strategy.
