Wintermute CEO recently harshly criticized those young founders and opinion leaders who claim to "abandon cryptocurrencies," speaking frankly:

"People who announce their exit before even turning 30 are complete scammers. You've only been in the game for a few years and haven't even been given a real chance at cryptocurrencies. Don't just say you're giving up; honestly, you haven't even truly started."

This remark hit a pain point in the industry — many young crypto entrepreneurs rush to declare their departure due to market volatility or project failures, but in reality, their understanding of the industry is far from deep enough. Industry insiders believe that this impatient attitude is one of the factors hindering the maturity and development of the crypto market.

Haha, this CEO's words are a bit harsh, but they really hit the nail on the head. I've seen too many like this—raising money and then claiming to be a prophet; losing money and immediately retreating with a farewell post. It's truly laughable. In a bear market, you see people's true colors; only those who stay are genuine. What are you pretending for? It's just that you haven't made any money. This industry should eliminate these restless people. The air can't even sustain life for a few years, and they still want to change the world. I actually think it's more honest to get out early; stop posting long articles and self-indulgence. But honestly, those who give up so quickly truly don't understand the rules of this game.

Exactly, these kinds of people are really annoying. Just after making some money or losing some, they start saying they "give up," come on, you haven't even experienced a bear market. --- Another "retreater" under 30... laughable, what can your few years of experience count for? --- What the industry needs are those who can endure, not those who fall apart at the slightest breeze. --- Really, every time I see these declarations, I want to laugh. The market fluctuates a bit and they run away, showing they simply don't understand crypto. --- Give up? Bro, you haven't even started yet. --- That hit me right in the heart. Some people are just here to harvest the leeks and then walk away unscathed. --- Restlessness is one thing, but this industry attracts such people, there's nothing we can do. --- I just want to see if they'll still be here in 5 years. --- Totally agree, can't stand two bear markets and then call it quits? That's unprofessional.
