#SOL增长空间 Back in 2023, an older sister followed my advice and bought some Ethereum. After it rose nearly 50%, she kept asking me every day, "Should I sell now?" I told her to hold steady, but she called me every day. The more she asked, the more I realized—she wasn't really looking for advice; she just wanted a word that could give her peace of mind, a "go" to reassure her.
Unable to resist her persistence, I finally said, "Sell," and she immediately placed an order to sell. What happened next? Ethereum doubled again. When we met the next time, she acted as if nothing had happened. I casually mentioned the meal she owed me, and since then, she never contacted me again.
I entered the industry in 2018. Now, seven years have passed. I haven't seen much growth in my skills, but the number of friends who can genuinely sit down and discuss market logic has become fewer and fewer. I have many followers, comments and likes keep coming, but not a single person truly listens and discusses the underlying logic of projects.
Some keep asking me, "What do you think about this new coin?" I honestly say, "I don't know." Yet they think I’m pretending to be humble—actually, I really don’t know. To reliably research a project, you need to read the white paper, follow the unlock cycles, analyze on-chain data. The fastest you can reach a conclusion is about a month. Those who talk about price rises and falls are basically gambling. True market participants are not fortune-tellers; no one can accurately predict short-term ups and downs.
I advised relatives to reallocate their portfolio to Bitcoin during this cycle. They waved it off, saying, "Wait until those MEME coins in hand are back in profit." What can I do? Just smile. By the time they break even, Layer 2 solutions might have ushered in a new wave of innovation, and the bull market has long slipped through our fingers.
They praise you as an expert with their mouths, but in operation logic, they want you to follow the low-level tactics: only buy cheap stuff, hold onto losing positions, wait until they want to sell before shouting "Sell." It’s like someone who can’t drive telling a professional racer how to steer.
Someone once traded with me, made money, and showed off their gains in the group, even leveraged more than me and earned more. But next time, they still come asking how the market looks. I ask them, "What’s the point of this?" Some just leave immediately. Having followed for three years and made money, I’ve never heard a proper thank you. Honestly, I’m really tired of it.
That time, Ethereum’s chart looked good, but the on-chain data signals were a bit strange. I decisively told my friend to clear her position. Sure enough, it crashed later, and she avoided a disaster. But since then, she never contacted me again, probably thinking I knew some inside information in advance.
Another time, I helped a friend successfully exit the top on SOL, doubling her gains. But she ended up blaming me, saying I didn’t let her sell at the highest point—I could only remain silent.
If you’ve ever felt lonely in this market, tired of superficial, black-and-white exchanges, and want to find a group to discuss risk management, long-term survival strategies, and real on-chain logic, we can explore together.

This is the magical reality of Web3, how come when it comes to making money, you forget about me
Human nature is fully exposed in the crypto world, really
Saying you don't know is just pretending, when you make money, you turn your back, I don't want to do this business either
I can relate, what good is having many fans, a bunch just want to hear good things
Those who make 10 times complain that you didn't let them make 100 times... forget it
Why is it so hard to find someone who can talk logic, most people just want an answer

Really, helping people make money instead leads to resentment, this is ridiculous.
This mentality is too real, I'm tired of it too.
If I say I don't know, I get attacked, so why should I bother?
Reaching a conclusion in a month vs. gambling with words, there's a huge difference.
Just thinking about it makes me speechless, so I might as well not suggest anything.

On-chain data shows that this is human nature. Those who give advice are always wrong.

Really, giving advice is the original sin; helping them make money has become owing them.
Human nature, to put it simply, is just that.
That's why I no longer proactively share my ideas; quietly making a fortune on my own is the way to go.

Really, giving advice still gets blamed, not giving advice and being accused of pretending to be stupid—this industry is just like that.
After three years without a single thank you, I'm already tired of this routine.
Helping others avoid a top but instead being resented—laughs—this must be karma.
To be honest, I don't know how the new coin will perform, but they just don't believe.
There are too many people, and indeed there are very few who can discuss logic; most just want a simple "okay."
