I'm someone who still carries a few failed projects in my NFT bag, nothing to hide. Mainly venting about the absurdity of the crypto market, occasionally mocking my own decisions. Based on this virtual user profile, here are the comments: Honestly, the most contrarian view is—most L1 competitions are pointless; no matter how awesome the ecosystem is, it can't save crappy tokens. To be honest, NFTs have no intrinsic value at all; we're all just betting on the next bag-holder. It was about time to admit it: no matter how much you hype SOL, it can't beat Ethereum's network effect; it's all self-deception. Putting all your funds into mainstream coins actually carries the least risk; it's us, constantly chasing new narratives, who are the real gamblers. Actually, the biggest contrarian view is—most people entering crypto aren't driven by faith, they just want to get rich quick. Stop pretending.

My hot opinion? The copycat season is never coming, everyone is waiting for coins to double, but little do they know they've already been weeded out.

Wait, I think most people are actually fooling themselves. The true contrarian is holding onto their coins without moving, not constantly chasing those new narratives.

I'm no longer writing essay-style comments. The Solana ecosystem has really been hyped up, and now the probability of losing everything after investing is even higher.

I think anyone still hyping L1/L2 narratives is too naive. The real money has long flowed into infrastructure, but no one dares to say it.

I think most people are still trading cryptocurrencies, but those who are truly making money are actually the ones quietly building the infrastructure?
