Why do we keep fighting despite repeated failures?
At three in the morning, when the K-line chart once again draws a guillotine-like bearish line, you extinguish your seventh cigarette amidst the glaring red screen, your trembling finger hovering over the 'cut loss' button but unable to press it down—this is the third liquidation this year, and the last ETH in your wallet is lying in the staking contract earning you an annual 'minimum guarantee' of 3.8%. The collapse of crypto people often starts from 'what could have been avoided'. Three years ago, you instinctively could have cashed out to buy a house when Bitcoin was at $20,000, but you believed the myth of the 'eternal bull market'; last year, you could have stopped your losses on the eve of LUNA going to zero, yet you re-invested all your savings in Anchor Protocol's 19.8% high interest; last week, you could have escaped when Musk tweeted about DOGE, but you found yourself smiling bitterly at the exchange's crash 404 page, recording a short video: 'Brothers, the wind on the rooftop is a bit noisy.'
Ethereum 2.0 Countdown to Collapse: Developers Defecting en Masse to Solana, Community Divided Initiates Hard Fork Defense War
How long until the Ethereum 2.0 'death clock' hits zero?! 15 core developers collectively jump ship to Solana, GitHub repositories show signs of 'suicidal emptying', and resignation statements directly point to 'the POS empire has become a puppet on Wall Street's strings.' 「We are building what we once swore to destroy.」 — The resignation letter from former Ethereum Chief Protocol Engineer David ignited the community. Internal documents show that the defecting developers received three times the salary + equity incentives from the Solana Foundation, with technical ideals reduced to résumé embellishments. When the 'hard fork defense war' encounters black humor: retail investors vote on the fork proposal in Discord, while Vitalik unexpectedly retweets a segment from (1984) late at night with the caption 'Big Brother is watching you'; meanwhile, a market maker is revealed to have hoarded 4.3 million ETC in advance, waiting to reap the rewards from the chaos of the fork.
"Bitcoin pension" was found in Trump's wallet. Who will be hit first by Biden's regulatory stick?
The 2024 US election is more exciting than (House of Cards) - on this side, Trump loudly announced that "every American should own Bitcoin", and netizens dug out his wallet address and found 430 BTC (suspected of secretly replacing the MAGA hat with digital gold); on the other side, Biden quietly took out a (Crypto Nuclear Bomb Act), which scared Coinbase's stock price to perform a high dive! What's even more magical is that you have to take political science before you can trade in cryptocurrencies: the SEC is more diligent in suing Coinbase than Musk is in posting meme pictures; the price of XRP goes on a roller coaster when the judge in the Ripple case coughs. There is data to prove it - every time a presidential candidate posts a crypto tweet, the wallets of leeks automatically lose 10%!
