Why do some people advise you to touch altcoins? After reading this, you’ll laugh to the point of heartache and want to cry...

1. Temptation Chapter: Why are altcoins like “dice on a gambling table”?

▫️ “Hundredfold myth” performed daily: A certain altcoin claims to be “the next Bitcoin,” the white paper paints a picture larger than the universe, and retail investors think “invest 10,000 to make 1 million,” but when they enter, they become “the bag holders,” and the K-line chart drops more dramatically than a roller coaster.

▫️ Small market cap is easy to manipulate: An altcoin with a market cap of 100 million can be pushed up by a trader spending 10 million, and in the group, shills are shouting “Let’s go, family,” retail investors follow suit, and the trader then sells off, leaving a group of people at the peak singing “Cool Cool.”

Humorous analogy: Trading altcoins is like playing “Russian roulette,” if you win, you treat the whole village to dinner, if you lose, the whole village comes to your house for dinner (referring to splitting costs).

2. Gambler's Psychology: “What if I’m the chosen one?”

▪️ “Mainstream coins rise slowly, only altcoins have a chance of making a fortune!”—This is like saying “buying a lottery ticket guarantees 5 million, better than going to work.”

▪️ A certain blogger shows a screenshot of “100,000 trading altcoins turning into 5 million,” and the comments section is filled with people copying the code, only to find out the screenshot was edited, and those who really invested are now figuring out “how to survive on 0.1 of a coin.”

The truth: A 99% surge in altcoins is a bait by the trader, a 100% drop is the norm; you think you’re “buying the dip,” but in reality, you’re helping the trader “gather a dowry.”

3. Why do some people advise you to touch them? The underlying tricks are absurdly deep!

▫️ Survivor bias filter: Occasionally, someone makes money with altcoins, just like lottery winners bragging everywhere, but 99% of people lose and even want to delete their wallet addresses.

Heartbreaking reality: Those who advise you to touch altcoins might be using your funds to buy a Ferrari, while you can only exchange the remaining coins for a “Meituan discount coupon for 30 off 5.”

Final serious reminder:

Can you accept losing all your principal?

Will you wake up crying in the middle of the night seeing the K-line plummet?

Do you have the ability to distinguish between “scam coins” and “real projects”?
