In this circle, no matter how beautiful the narrative is, it seems to be doomed— they will eventually fade away. Not a slow consolidation, but a fall from the peak back to the origin.
Just look at the trends over the past few years. NFTs were once extremely popular, inscriptions once flooded the screens, Ethereum L2 was hyped as the future, and PEPE and WIF made many dream of getting rich overnight. And now? Most of them have returned to the starting point, or even lower.
In contrast, BTC has survived through multiple rounds of narrative updates and iterations. Not because its story is the most compelling, but because it has gone through enough cycles for validation. This is almost the harshest reality of this market—those who survive are often not the most glamorous ones.
Wait, so not jumping on the PEPE wave isn't really a loss?
BTC is steady to the point of boredom, but it seems like it's the only one that has made it this far.
If that's the case, speculating on concepts is not as reliable as simply accumulating Bitcoin.
Another cycle completed, and some people lose everything again, cycle after cycle.
---
Honestly, I also took a position during the NFT wave. Thinking back, it still hurts a bit.
---
So in the end, the ones that survived are those boring things. Bitcoin really won big.
---
Wait, is this logic reversed? The most sexy ones die the fastest?
---
How did PEPE go from a dream of getting rich quickly to a trap for the uninitiated?
---
It's truly heartbreaking, but some people keep entering the market again and again to bet on the next narrative.
---
It seems I need to learn how to distinguish between genuine demand and air.
---
BTC has survived until now not because of good marketing, but simply because it has been through enough.
---
NFT inscriptions... should have died long ago. I never had high hopes for them.
---
The sexiest projects die the fastest—that's true.
---
Cycle verification, it sounds bitter but it's the truth.
---
It's the same old story of BTC dominating everything. I'm tired of it.
---
Remember, some people still bought PEPE at high prices. What’s the situation now?
---
So, it's still best to hold onto the old coins and not be blinded by new narratives.
---
Sexiness = death. This formula is too accurate in the crypto world.
---
The ones who survive are always the most boring, but boredom is justice.
---
How to say... Bitcoin is just Bitcoin, it stands the test of time.
---
Another round of cutting is done, waiting for the next trend to cut new chives.
---
BTC is that stable and reliable old man, meme coins are the fireworks that get people hooked.
---
Every time they say this time is different, but it’s always the same, haha.
---
I almost believed in NFTs back then, luckily I reacted slowly and didn’t rush in.
---
Cycles are really ruthless; many people's dreams are shattered here.
---
Ultimately, you still have to play the ones that can survive the bear market, no matter how boring they are.
---
So, what’s next? Surely not another sexy narrative to make us pay the IQ tax again?
---
Being alive is the most sexy thing; that’s a perfect statement, hits right in the heart.
---
Let’s see what’s being hyped up now; I bet five cents that in a year it’ll return to the original point.
