The $INIT project itself is quite good, the problem lies in its price performance—it's indeed a bit miserable. By 2025, this phenomenon is becoming more and more obvious: projects with strong potential often experience the largest declines. This is also why pure long-term strategies are no longer effective, and we need to shift to a right-side trading mindset. Anyone still trying to bottom fish on the left side is basically losing so much that they start doubting their life.

The market for altcoins is even more competitive. There are too few liquidity providers, and once the whales enter, they are extremely fierce and ruthless. Retail investors trying to make money here? The difficulty level is off the charts. Most people come in and end up losing everything—that's the norm. The reality of the market is just this harsh.

The projects with the most potential are actually the hardest hit, this trick is really clever Those who buy the dip on the left side have all become bagholders, I am one of them Most altcoin players are just here to take your money, no problem No wonder retail investors find it so hard to make money, it's been pushed to the extreme INIT's price performance is indeed disappointing, the project itself is fine, the price is the problem Right-side trading is the way to go, the left side is already outdated Poor liquidity combined with aggressive market makers, who can withstand that? That hits hard, my wallet has the most say

Oh no, about bottom fishing on the left side... I told you, this year at least 80% of the losses came from this. Right-side trading is indeed more profitable, but the problem is that the speed of execution can't keep up. Altcoins are even more ridiculous. When liquidity thins out, the whales go crazy. For retail investors like us, isn't it just giving away electricity bills? Even those like INIT with some fundamentals have fallen so much, indicating that the market has already changed. We need to adjust our mindset, or else we'll really be wiped out.

The strategy of bottom-fishing on the left side is really outdated. Now it's just the market makers repeatedly taking advantage. With such poor liquidity in the altcoin market, retail investors are just handing over their money. INIT has dropped so sharply, indicating that everything is broken. Right-side trading mindset is the only way out; the left side is full of traps. Even the projects we are optimistic about are falling the hardest now. This market is truly bleak. If this is the state in 2025, it's high time to face reality.

Buying the dip until bankruptcy, this is my 2025😅 left-side trading, really a pitfall Altcoins have poor liquidity, when the whales cut the leeks, it's a slaughter; retail investors just end up giving away money The projects I believe in actually fall the hardest, this logic is truly brilliant Right-side trading mindset needs to be learned, or you'll really be wasting your effort

How are the people who bought the dip on the left side doing now? Guess what The biggest decline is in good projects, this logic is really absurd Altcoins are just casinos, nothing more to say Right-side trading? Easy to say, but how about execution Buying the dip results in a pile of chicken feathers, hilarious Retail investors entering altcoins is purely suicidal operation Is INIT still holding after such a disaster? Liquidity is so bad it’s exploding, the market makers can harvest at will It’s 2025 and you still want to pick up leaks on the left side? Dream on The ones I believe in are actually falling the hardest, this market is really ruthless

Buying the dip until I doubt my life, left-side trading is really a nightmare Altcoins have poor liquidity; entering means being chopped up by the whales Good projects can't be saved either; the price just won't show respect Even INIT, which is relatively decent, has fallen so much, why should retail investors make money? Right-side trading is the way to go; waiting to buy the dip on the left side just means waiting to lose The manipulators are really ruthless; retail investors are just meat on the chopping block The projects I believe in are actually the worst performers; this market is really ridiculous Buying the dip repeatedly is pointless; better to follow the trend and speculate

Bottom fishing on the left side? That's just giving money to the whales. Trading on the right side is the real way out, but it's easier said than done. $INIT Projects that seem pretty good are often the most heartbreaking, and they tend to experience the sharpest declines. The altcoin market is a bloody battlefield, with liquidity being ridiculously scarce, and whales come in to slaughter. Retail investors trying to turn things around here? Basically impossible.

Those who bought the dip have all died. This wave is really different; you have to see if the market is fierce enough. Altcoins are just slaughterhouses for the whales; retail investors going in are just giving away their heads. The projects with the most potential are actually falling the hardest—ridiculous. Long-term? Don't make me laugh. Now, you have to rely on the right side to eat the gains. With such poor liquidity, you'll get trapped as soon as you enter—it's uncomfortable.
