There are eight major factions in the crypto world, each with different ways of playing.

The ways to get involved in criminal risks are also completely different.
First faction · Faithful believers
Long-term supporters of Bitcoin and Ethereum, only talking about cycles, only doing compound interest over time, are the oldest and purest faction.
Lowest risk, but also the one that tests human nature the most; most people can't endure the long bear market.
Second faction · Ecosystem infrastructure faction
Don't speculate on coins at all, focus on creating coins and building ecosystems, pre-positioning for each trend, earning founder shares and ecosystem dividends.
This faction looks low-key but is actually the group closest to primary market logic.
Third faction · Quantitative arbitrage faction
Structure hunters in the market, rely on models and data for automatic arbitrage, not on intuition or predictions, high technical threshold, but profit from market inefficiencies unrelated to emotions.
Fourth faction · Mining faction
On-chain farmers, staking, providing liquidity, re-staking, earning points, and airdrops, keeping funds running 24/7.
Appears stable in returns, but the highest risk of running away or crashing, and the highest probability of hitting a mine among these eight factions.
Fifth faction · Airdrop faction
The most competitive professional players in the crypto world, waiting for projects to launch and distribute airdrops, starting from zero cost, sometimes earning five figures in USD by luck.
Low threshold, high ceiling, but increasingly competitive, with shorter windows.
Sixth faction · Momentum speculation faction
Specializes in hot topics, relies on emotions and hype to chase short-term profits.
Fast to rise, fast to crash, being trapped at high levels is common.
The few who can really profit are always a minority; most are just taking over for those in front.
Seventh faction · Contract gambling faction
The most brutal way in crypto, leveraging leverage, going long or short, some get rich overnight with dozens of times leverage, others lose everything overnight.
Long-term, low win rate, most people are just paying transaction fees to exchanges.
Eighth faction · Insider information faction
The most mysterious, always one step ahead of retail investors, profiting from information gaps.
Sounds glamorous, but this faction also carries the highest criminal risks—insider trading, market manipulation, money laundering, just one piece of information is enough to land someone in jail.
🍀 The legal risks behind these eight factions
The faith faction is the cleanest, the insider faction the most dangerous, but no matter which faction, in the crypto world, frozen bank cards, account investigations, and people being taken away are nothing new.
Before playing, figure out which line you are on and whether you are crossing the risk line.
Be cautious above all, avoid greed, avoid greed, 🙏 Amitabha.
