Chasing quick riches in crypto rarely ends well. Whether it's meme coins, leverage trading, or the latest shitcoin pumps—the math just doesn't work out for most people. The ones screaming about 100x gains? Yeah, survivorship bias talking. What actually builds wealth over time is consistency, risk management, and staying disciplined when everyone else is FOMO-ing into the next hype cycle. Boring? Maybe. But boring beats broke every single time.

FOMO-5.63%

HYPE-1.16%

Smiling through this loss, living clearly to see the next round --- Dreamers of 100x, wake up, that's survivor bias singing --- Really, seeing how many people go all-in on shitcoins, I just think of how foolish I used to be --- Boring is indeed boring, but I'd rather live boringly than cry broke --- Consistency and risk management? Sounds boring, but that's the secret to not getting wrecked, everyone --- Leverage trading is just adding leverage to make money, I'll be straightforward --- Wait, you're telling me that consistency can earn 100x? Then I'm really disappointed --- FOMO entering the market means destined to be cut off

Well said, it's just that the group constantly hyping 100x are all survivors talking; the dead won't open their mics. --- Boredom is indeed boring, but I choose boredom over liquidation. --- The most outrageous part of leverage trading is how many people go all-in and then have their accounts wiped out. --- Really, consistency and risk management may sound boring, but they are the only ways to survive longer. --- What about meme coin players' 🧠? Pure gambling. --- Every time I see posts claiming "1000x in a year," I just laugh. Survivor bias is that exaggerated. --- People who FOMO in have basically been cut once and still haven't learned. --- Boredom > bankruptcy, that's the truth. Why do so many people keep trying and failing again?

Wake up, everyone. It's really that simple—steady earning vs. getting rich overnight, I choose the former.

Really, new investors love to hear about 100x dreams, but no one talks about the thousand failures.

That's so true. How are those people who play with leverage doing now?

Really, most people can't even earn 100x. --- So it's better to stick to honest DCA and not follow the trend. --- Boredom is indeed boring, but it's definitely better than liquidation. --- I just want to ask those who shout 100x, how are you doing now? --- That's how the crypto world is; survivor bias kills. Don't be fooled. --- Consistency is the key, everything else is trash. --- Leverage trading? Wake up, that's gambling. --- That's right, but no one listens... --- Boring wins, at least better than bankruptcy.
