Some things are fake, but copying them can turn them into real ones. It started with BTC, then ETH, and in the past two years, it has been SOL. But who can capture those hundreds or thousands of times returns?
At first, like all retail investors, I was deceived by various messages and got on board. I just wanted to earn that 2x or 3x, so I started buying Bitcoin and Ethereum. Everyone said that Bitcoin could rise 5 times and Ethereum could rise 10 times. The voices of Ethereum surpassing Bitcoin were incessant.
I thought, I would just earn that 2 or 3 times, not play contracts, just hold ETH. It should be very stable.
In these years of holding coins, I tried many things. Holding TRX for 2 years gave me 3 times returns, and holding PEPE gave me 20 times.
But why? Why did I not earn a single cent after heavily investing in ETH for a full 4 years? Why do those undervalued garbage coins always bring me surprises?
Why does so-called value investing always end up empty? Is Ethereum not valuable? Everyone said otherwise back then.
Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, tens of thousands of times, thousands of times, hundreds of times, why can't I capture it myself? Why do those coins become value coins when they rise? A 10% increase means a bull market has arrived?
This makes me think about why this is happening.
The big players release bad news, crash the market, and control the market for a long time, making all retail investors despair and sell their holdings. When these big players absorb enough chips, they then start a 100x, 1000x pump. Then they tell you this is a value coin, with another 2x or 3x appreciation. Hurry up and buy.
This is a trap. I think I should also seize those 100x opportunities. When the big players are accumulating, I should also get a piece of the pie. I won’t buy Bitcoin or Ethereum anymore. If I’m going to buy, I’ll buy 100x "garbage coins"; when "garbage coins" rise 100 times, they become value coins, and then I’ll slowly sell them to those retail investors. After looking at many coins, I only dare to heavily invest in LUNC. Someone previously told me that TST was good. I looked at it and it indeed seems fine, but it’s a new coin, and the risk of heavily investing is still too high.
