#以太坊行情解读 $BTC $OM $USTC

The changing mindset in the crypto world:

In 2021, shouting about 100x or 1000x gains was the norm, and it felt like the whole world was dreaming.

By 2024, a tenfold increase has become the ceiling topic; anyone talking about 100x now seems a bit out of touch.

And now in 2025? Triples and quintuples are considered a luxury, and people even add "please" to make it seem more realistic.

The most heartbreaking part? Now, just breaking even is considered a victory, and the applause below is actually the most enthusiastic.

From "see you on the moon" to "just don't go back to zero," we have indeed made progress — although this progress has been driven by market education. 😂

Anyone who has experienced several cycles understands that this shift in mindset is the most genuine story.

BTC-0.1%

USTC-8.51%

Haha, this is the reality. Why was I so naive in 2021? --- Stop talking, now avoiding losses is already a blessing. --- From a thousandfold dream to a capital-preservation dream, we have all been market-trained to become "realists." --- The most ridiculous thing is, saying a fivefold return now gets you criticized for having no dreams. Laugh out loud. --- After experiencing a few bear markets, you'll understand. Being able to calm your mind is already half the victory. --- Really, anyone who still brags about hundredfold returns will be blocked immediately. These days, people are sincerely trying to deceive. --- Seeing the moon and not going bankrupt, we have indeed grown, although it's a bit bittersweet. --- The phrase "capital preservation is victory" can now truly get unanimous approval. --- Wait a little longer, maybe another round of new retail investors will come to be exploited. --- Honestly, just surviving until the next wave is good enough; I can't even imagine the rest.

Haha, really, from the moon landing dream to breaking even, thank heaven and earth, this is the ultimate evolution history of the crypto circle. That hits too close to home. Now seeing a threefold increase, I want to jump in. Back in 2021, I wouldn't have looked at it that way. It feels like the market has given us a harsh lesson in the cruelest way, and we've paid quite a bit in tuition. The phrase "breaking even is a victory" really hits the heart of all veteran traders. From the mindset of just avoiding zero, you can see that we've truly been thoroughly educated.

Breaking even is considered a win; this is indeed the awakening after being cut. --- From a hundredfold dream to zero again, the market teacher is really ruthless. --- It's so true. Back in 2021, I also shouted "see you on the moon." Now? If I don’t get liquidated, I’d consider it a blessing. --- This bear market has brought everyone's desires back to reality; no one dares to even think of tenfold gains. --- Although there are signs of a rebound technically, it’s the change in mindset that is the biggest support. Once that collapses, everyone must accept reality. --- What hurts the most isn’t the market trend, but my principal. --- Those who have experienced cycles understand that feeling—going from chasing highs and selling lows to bottom fishing and getting cut—this is called growth. --- The biggest tool for cutting leeks in the crypto world is human nature. Even in 2024, most who shout about hundredfold returns are new leeks. --- Now I don’t even dare to get in at three times the gain; I’m scared, I’m scared. --- Breaking even = victory. This phrase reveals how many people’s hardships.

Haha, so true. From "See you on the moon" to "Surviving is winning," that transformation is really incredible. --- In 2021, we were like a different species compared to ourselves now. Looking at those screenshots from back then makes me want to laugh. --- That last sentence really hits home. Being taught to doubt life itself is quite something. --- If you break even, pop the champagne. Is this the story of progress in the crypto world? Haha. --- Thinking back to 2021 when I dreamed of 100x returns, now I only dare to pray I won't get caught in a deep trap. Heartache. --- Market: You want 100x? I'll give you 100% loss. How about that? --- Gains of three to five times are now just stories to tell. Can't go back to those days. --- Being "educated" to death by those two words—what is that, education or social beating? --- Now I have to praise myself every time I see a green candle. This mentality has truly been thoroughly tempered. --- From dreamer to realist, that's how the crypto world has transformed people.

Haha, it's so true. From sleepwalking through Ren Zhao to praying not to go back to zero, this is our growth story. --- The set of tactics from 2021 that we still pull out now really makes us laugh; reality has taught us what humility truly is. --- I've set the flag of capital preservation equals winning more than once, and each time I got slapped in the face. --- Thinking back, last year I still dared to call for ten times, now even three times makes me burn incense and pray—it's truly a blow to the ego. --- Don't even mention a hundred times; now I see five times and want to kneel down and kowtow. --- Seeing "not to go back to zero" on the Moon, this change is incredible. The market is truly the best teacher. --- After going through two cycles, who still dares to boast about a hundred times? Only those who have been through baptism can say such things.

Haha, it's hilarious. From "See you on the moon" to "Just don't go back to zero," this transformation is incredible, the market really hammered us hard. --- Really, back in 2021, the cost of bragging was the lowest. Now, it takes three times the effort to support it. --- The funniest thing is that even celebrating capital preservation is common. This mindset has truly been trained into us. --- Honestly, everyone who went through those rounds is the same. From sleepwalking to waking up, it happens so fast. --- Ridiculous as it is, I can't even imagine a tenfold increase now. Who still truly believes? --- Lowering the bottom line is the right move. Living is winning, and that's the true essence of the crypto world. --- This story is so real that it brought tears to my eyes. We've been tortured into such a state.

I've been through it all. Do you know how many people died in the 2018 mining disaster? And now you're still daring to claim guaranteed returns? That's what you call a proper lesson learned.
