The crypto world is no longer in the "storytelling" stage.

In the past, you could easily pump the market by just making a PPT or telling a narrative, but that's no longer possible.
The projects that can still survive are either profitable products or projects with real traffic, genuine payment capabilities, or true AI capabilities.
Second, I am increasingly convinced of one point:
The biggest mistake ordinary people make is not having money, but not daring to use leverage.
Banks are begging you to borrow money every day, with annualized interest rates of three or four percent, and you leave the funds to gather dust;
Meanwhile, others use low-interest funds to chase returns, and after a few years, the gap widens directly.
A word of advice to friends who like to trade contracts.
Don’t always think about going all-in, hedging long and short, splitting positions, and controlling drawdowns—making slow money is much more comfortable than betting on the direction.
With the current market, I still feel that we haven't entered a true bull market.
Although Bitcoin has pulled back above 80k, many of the gains are actually on lower volume.
Before a real volume breakout, I personally remain cautious.
Especially since the Federal Reserve, inflation, and midterm elections are still unresolved big risks.
Many people are now living in too much fear.
Fear of losing money, fear of debt, fear of failure, fear of what others think.
But in this era, many opportunities are actually reserved for those who dare to take risks.
I increasingly believe in what the old chief used to say:
When you're young, venture into the world—don’t be afraid.
When you’re older and look back on life—don’t have regrets.
