Why do stories about getting rich quickly, doubling your holdings with a single coin, and how crypto changes lives always resonate so much on social media? Essentially, they are conveying a confirmation of possibilities to people.

Luxury cars, mansions, traveling around the world, financial freedom—these images are attractive not because they depict someone’s success, but because they tell you: such opportunities truly exist in the crypto market.

Indeed, some people have seized the wave early. But this precisely shows that—opportunities do not disappear just because someone profits from them. Every new cycle, new narrative, and new project hotspot redistributes the chance to accumulate wealth. That’s why this type of content will never go out of style.

The words are correct, but after reading so many stories of "seizing the wave early," why am I still the one bottom-fishing... --- It sounds good, but it's actually psychological manipulation to harvest the little guys; we all know that. --- Every cycle says the opportunity is coming, but when it's my turn, it's gone. --- New narratives, new projects—sounds like new tricks at the casino. --- Wealth redistribution? More like redistributing from retail investors' pockets to the big players. --- I won't deny that some people made money, but it's never from people I know. --- I've heard this set of words three bull markets in a row, and it's still the same feeling of being a little guy. --- There are indeed opportunities; the problem is, I keep stepping into the traps. --- It's really about confirming possibilities—confirming the possibility of losing money. --- So the key is having knowledge and luck; I lack both.

Only a few will always ride the wave, but the wave itself will never stop.

I'm just worried someone might actually believe this and think they can also double their wealth overnight.

That's right, it's just the power of psychological suggestion. Seeing others make money makes you feel like you can too, and the next lucky person might be me. There are still opportunities, but it seems most people are just catching the last wave, not riding the tide. Here comes another narrative, just like last time, a new cycle, new opportunities—just listen. Wealth redistribution? It's just another way of saying cutting the leeks. But on the other hand, some people have really turned their lives around with this, the chances are small but not zero. That's why I'm still here spamming, the luck mentality is truly remarkable.

This article is correct, but after reading so many of these stories, I'm becoming numb... Why don't I see any stories about losses after making real profits?

Basically, it's just psychological comfort. Seeing others get rich quickly makes you feel you have a chance too, haha. --- It's always the same spiel. Is this time really different? --- Reallocation of opportunities? Sounds good, but the ones really buying the dip are still those same people. --- Laughing to death, the reason it never goes out of style is because there are always new rookies coming in. --- It's really just information gap + luck. Don't overestimate the beauty of wealth reallocation. --- Wait a minute, there's a problem with this logic. How can the first-mover advantage disappear? --- So, are we all just riding the waves that follow?

Honestly, when I see these stories, I just want to take a gamble, but I also know that most people end up as bagholders in the end. Wait, can each cycle really be redistributed, or is it just survivor bias playing tricks? Could this round once again be a game where newcomers pass the bag to the veterans?
