Making money essentially involves two paths: big bets on big opportunities and small bets on big opportunities.
During ICOs, many people took big risks and made huge profits, and subsequent VC tokens continued along the same big-bet route.
At first, investing 100 ETH was nothing, starting with just hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Later, it dropped to the point where investing a few thousand dollars in VC tokens was possible, which I still find hard to get used to.
Including secondary tokens on exchanges.
But in the following years, most big bets resulted in losses.
Meme tokens then rose to prominence.
And the mainstream meme approach is small bets on big opportunities.
Even with large market caps, the actual capital capacity isn’t that big.
But the problem with small bets on big opportunities is that they don’t attract wealthy outsiders.
Every breakout is actually driven by big bets on big opportunities.
When NFTs became popular, outsiders would buy things like dozens of thousands of dollars’ worth of bored apes, punk collections, and so on.
So if there’s a launchpad for big bets on big opportunities, like starting at a 100 million market cap and growing to 1 billion—just a 10x increase—that’s enough to break out.
Starting with a 100 million market cap, you can initially throw in hundreds of thousands of dollars without worrying about losing everything.
Of course, if you don’t buy at the bottom, you might get cut a little, but you won’t lose too much.
Similarly, with hundreds of thousands of dollars, buying secondary tokens or flipping low-quality projects can result in over 90% losses in minutes.
This is also why people are hesitant to go all-in with big money inside the circle.
