The crypto space has an awkward truth nobody likes to admit: hustle doesn't guarantee rewards.

Spend hours reading whitepapers and charts? Doesn't necessarily move the needle. Drop posts constantly trying to stay visible? The algorithm won't automatically favor you. Pour your heart into a project? Passion alone won't close the deal.

What actually matters? When you show up and who's already in the room. Entry timing and existing network access separate the winners from everyone else grinding away. It's not about effort—it's about positioning.

That reality makes people genuinely uncomfortable, especially those who believed the myth that Web3 rewards merit above all else.

It's heartbreaking to say, but those around me who read the White Paper every day haven't made any money, while some early entrants are making profits effortlessly.

It's a tough truth, but this is the reality... Those who entered early indeed made a fortune. I should have gone all-in back in 2017; it's my fault for entering too late. That's why the internet is crucial—being more hardworking than you is a hundred times more important. Having strong skills is useless if you don't seize the right timing; you're still a loser.
