Brace yourselves, we are about to enter a couple years of euphoria in cryptocurrency, maybe it's not two years, maybe it's a year less or a few more years depending on how the ETF hedge funds decide to play their cards, but either way, this euphoria will come accompanied by an greed-fueled anticipation of gains. However, amidst all of this degen excitmeent, we need to acknowledge and pay our respects to a harsh reality: the crypto space is not a friendly game of tag, but rather a blood-soaked arena where only a handful will emerge victorious.
Despite everyone in your X timeline saying bullshit like "wagmi", "collaboration over competition" and "together we win, the reality is that crypto is a PvP game where if you are looking to come out of it with a 100x profit, 99 other people must lose the game, or maybe even more depending on the size of your bags, but you get the point.
Most people in crypto have one main goal: to time the perfect moment to unload their entire portfolio on the market and leave others bagholding. Trying to time the market is stupid, yet since a huge majority of people try to do it, some of them will succeed on leaving the table with the most chips possible in their position.
This predatory behavior raises a sobering question: who will be left standing with profits, and who will be left drained and defeated?
As Suzanne Collins would (not) like to say, the odds are never in your favor, and only around 10% of the crypto bros who are active during this pre-bull market will make gains. Those gains will come out of the other 90% of this MMORP game called "the Crypto space".
You can almost touch the euphoria in crypto twitter, but if you don't want to get dragged into narratives, honeypots, or blatant scams, it is key to maintain a level of brutal realism, caution, and strategic execution to navigate this perilous landscape.
The crypto arena is not for the faint of heart. The odds are stacked against participants, especially those lacking experience. It's likened to a high-stakes Hunger Games, where survival demands cunning, strategy, and an acute awareness of the cutthroat nature of the game. Those entering the crypto space must recognize that they are not engaging in a friendly competition; rather, they are stepping into an environment where profit extraction often means preying on fellow participants.
While individuals may exchange words of camaraderie, declaring "WAGMI" (We're All Gonna Make It), the underlying truth is that everyone is in it for themselves. The market dynamics shift rapidly, and alliances forged during times of bullish fervor can disintegrate in an instant. The illusion of camaraderie can quickly fade, leaving participants vulnerable to the ruthless actions of others aiming to secure their own gains.
In this game of financial survival, participants must navigate the fine line between optimism and a stark acknowledgment of the brutal reality. The stakes are high, and the majority will not make it out with profits intact. Success demands a shrewd understanding of market trends, risk management, and the ability to adapt swiftly to changing circumstances.
As the crypto journey unfolds, it's imperative to approach the market with your wits about you. The allure of quick profits and the thrill of market euphoria must be tempered with a pragmatic understanding of the risks involved. While the journey may be treacherous, those who approach it with caution, realistic expectations, and strategic acumen may increase their chances of emerging from the crypto arena with both profits and lessons learned. So, as you venture forth, remember the odds are not in your favor, but with careful navigation, you might just be among the select few who emerge victorious.
