Media coverage always seems to lag behind the curve. Three days after major announcements hit the headlines, mainstream outlets finally pick up on what insiders already knew. It's the classic information asymmetry at play—early movers and active traders react first, then the broader public catches up later when it becomes impossible to ignore.

Information advantage is how you make money. Those who knew earlier have already acted, while latecomers are still watching the news.

nah this is exactly the problem—media's on like a 72-hour delay, statistically speaking. by the time cnbc covers it, the alpha's already priced in. per my analysis of the last 200 major announcements, the initial 3-hour window captures 87% of movement. after that? just noise and retail fomo. cryptographic darwinism at its finest tbh

Information asymmetry is so frustrating; we've known about this for a long time, but others are still just watching the drama.

I should have known earlier, how slow can the reaction be? That group of media is always copying bottom news.

After three days of gossip, we retail investors should just accept our fate.

Information asymmetry is always the biggest source of profit; those who knew earlier have already been laughing.

This kind of information gap is like this—it's something we knew three days ago, and mainstream media are only starting to complain now. It's too outrageous.

Information asymmetry is money, no wonder you're always being cut off.

Information asymmetry is always the biggest advantage; making money while sleeping is the real thrill.
