Let me tell you how I leverage information advantage to profit around $RIVER
This wave of $RIVER, I didn't do any divine operation; the core is two words: information gap.
Information Gap 1: Different sources of research
$RIVER is a project my friend and I started paying attention to last September. Someone around me specializes in project research, and I usually carefully review and remember the projects they send me.
At that time, my judgment of the project was quite rational: The mechanism isn't new; it's essentially InfoFi. The mining design has innovations but can also be easily "mined out."
And indeed, early data was moving too fast, putting pressure on the project.
I personally didn't mine much, got airdrops generally, but held small spot positions, earning about 2–3 times early on. The advantage is: we are among the very early group to write analyses and follow discussions, so there are early points and cognitive dividends.
Conclusion: The information gap isn't "insider information," but that you take the time to research more seriously than others, earlier.
Information Gap 2: Continuous attention gap
Later, $RIVER kept declining, FUD across the internet, market cap dropping to as low as 50M.
But I didn't give up tracking due to emotions; instead, I started to focus on the project team's actions.
During that period, the official held a Chinese Space, with three core points:
Admitted early mechanism issues
Prepared to adjust incentives and circulation structure
The team’s chips are still highly concentrated, with no obvious selling
Combining their previous activities overseas (especially in Asian markets), I judged: This is a team that has made mistakes but still has the ability to correct them.
So I chose to gradually deploy spot positions when the market was most pessimistic, with an average cost around 70M.
Everyone saw what happened next.
After the mechanism adjustment:
Circulation control significantly improved
Reward cycle was forcibly locked
Selling pressure was greatly reduced, and volatility started to become structured
This kind of market, essentially, is about: Chips + cognition + patience.
My experience summary:
The information gap isn't about knowing secrets others don't know,
But about continuing to follow through when others give up.
Real profits often come after the emotional lows.
The market is never short of opportunities; what’s missing is: Whether you are willing to keep dedicating time to a project.
Personal trading review does not constitute investment advice. Rational discussion is welcome. $RIVER
