There's an old saying that hits different in crypto: give someone a fish and they eat for a day, teach them to fish and they eat for a lifetime. Same applies to your portfolio strategy. Most people chase quick gains from trending altcoins and pump-and-dumps. But the real wealth comes from understanding how markets work—learning to read on-chain data, understanding tokenomics, spotting patterns before the crowd does. That's the skill that actually compounds over time. Whether you're trading, staking, or building in Web3, the difference between making money once and building generational wealth is whether you actually learn the fundamentals or just follow hype.

Learned in vain, only by falling into the pit myself can I understand.

Honestly, nine out of ten people chasing hot coins end up losing everything. Learning to read on-chain data is the real skill.

Teaching people to fish is better than giving them fish directly, but in the crypto world, this phrase needs to be reversed.

To be honest, most people are betting on the next 100x coin, but those who truly make money are analyzing on-chain data.

That's right, learning to read on-chain data is the real skill.

That's right, but most people simply can't stick with it that long.

Learning fundamentals is really like that, but the problem is most people simply don't have the patience, right?

That's right, but in reality, how many people can stick to studying fundamentals? Most people are still after quick money.

It sounds good, but there are very few people who can truly read insights from on-chain data. Most people are still looking at candlestick charts and Twitter trending topics; the big whales have long since planned their moves through capital flow analysis.
