That familiar pattern has appeared again.

Some big players are watching Twitter keywords, quickly buying the dip at the open. Before others can react, they've already piled chips at the bottom—by the way, taking away dozens of times the cheap goods in one go. And then? They keep adding to their positions crazily, smashing the price down further.

What about retail investors? They are frantic, chasing highs and cutting losses, with their funds in the account dwindling. The gap widens this way. This is the reality of the market—those with information advantages, quick reactions, and accumulated chips make money rapidly; while most people can only watch their holdings shrink helplessly.

Here we go again with this... Really, the information gap is just outrageous. We're still scrolling through Twitter while they have already built up their positions. Retail investors will always be the last ones to take the fall.

Is it that again? Just one word on Twitter, major players are already stacking chips on the chain, while we're still watching the K-line. Looking at the on-chain data is outrageous. A few whale wallets have suddenly increased their chips by dozens of times overnight. When you check the transaction records—sweeping the bottom in seconds, then quickly selling off. Retail investors are still hesitating whether to buy the dip, while they have already locked in profits. This is what we call information asymmetry eating people up, everyone. They react in seconds, far faster than us, and their chips have been accumulated long ago. While we're chasing highs, they are already happily at the bottom. That's how the gap is created. We need to find ways to speed up, or we'll always be watching others eat the meat while we drink the soup.

Here we go again. How many times has this trick been played? The big players just give a look to buy the dip, and we're still hesitating whether to sell or not. It's truly incredible. The information gap is so cruel... Watching your coins plummet, while the big players are celebrating. Is this Web3...

Is it the same old story? Information asymmetry is the eternal scythe for harvesting retail investors. I've long realized that big players are always playing this game. Anyway, I, as a small retail investor, am always the last to know. A single tweet, and they jump on the train in seconds; I'm still scrolling through my phone. This game is simply unplayable. Retail investors at the bottom are always the bagholders, truly. This is the market, there's nothing you can do. Recognize reality early, and stop hoping to turn things around. Instead of chasing highs, it's better to lie flat and watch the show. Anyway, you can't win.
