Taking stock of recent operations, honestly, there are some regrets. I originally planned to invest 50,000 yuan, but in the end, only 20,000 yuan actually went into the market. Looking back, the allocations for these projects were indeed quite conservative—tokens like RAVE, WET, CYS, US, each entry was a bit hesitant.
Reflecting on it, the main bottleneck was execution efficiency. In fast-iterating projects like Alpha, speed is life or death. Each market opportunity window is very short; being even a little slow means missing the optimal entry point. Nowadays, more and more Bots are stepping in during these phases, and automated participation has become standard. This precisely reflects a phenomenon: Alpha projects are gradually evolving into a complete cycle machine.
From a broader macro perspective, each cycle in the crypto market repeats the same pattern: reform (new mechanisms emerge) → dividends (early participants benefit) → involution (more participants, increased competition) → collapse (cycle ends) → reform (a new round begins). This is the cycle law. The current bear market has satisfied my understanding of cyclical repetition. When the next opportunity arrives, I will definitely act more decisively.

Oops, it's another speed issue. Without a bot, I really can't play.

Speed determines life or death; we've been overwhelmed by bots.

Not fast enough really puts you at a disadvantage, those bots run insanely fast.
Next time, I need to go automated, or I'll always be a step behind.
Instead of stressing over whether the configuration is conservative or not, it's better to think about how to keep up with the rhythm.
The cycle law theory is good, but execution is the true king.
Invest 20,000 in 50,000 units, I can understand that sense of regret... If I had known earlier, I would have gone all in.

Ah, wow, out of 50,000, only 20,000 were placed. I can feel that kind of regret.
To be honest, the bot thing really hits a bottleneck; if your reaction speed doesn't keep up, you'll take a hit.
The periodic law theory sounds clear, but I'm just worried that next time, I'll still react half a beat slow.

I'm not fast enough; this is the harsh reality right now.
It seems like bots have already frozen out the manual participants.
Next time, I definitely need to switch to automation, or I really won't be able to compete.

Slow reflexes are choking us; this is the gap between us and the robots.

50,000 didn't invest 20,000, this is awkward, still have to wait for the next round to turn things around

nah this is exactly why i keep saying bots have basically won the alpha game... empirically speaking, the data on execution speed in these cycles is pretty damning. your 60% dry powder situation? classic case of decision paralysis meeting market efficiency—research literally shows this pattern repeats every bull run, yet people still hesitate lol

Being slow on the draw means getting hit; there's no way to deal with the bot era.

Next time, I will do even better.
