Industry insiders recently shared that the most common question investors ask is: Where is the next big opportunity? His answer is simple—look at where I spend my time.
But the reality is, most people forget after hearing it. They remain obsessed with those enticing stories of "tenfold overnight riches," as if that is the ultimate goal of cryptocurrency investing. The problem is, the failure rate of such opportunities is as high as 99.99999%.
This number is not an alarmist exaggeration. Whenever the market hype around a new concept or a new coin arises, it attracts a large number of retail investors rushing in, dreaming of replicating the success stories of a few. But statistics will tell you that the vast majority will end up being the last to be "harvested."
A truly prudent investment strategy has never relied on chasing trends or gambling. It requires you to spend time researching, thinking, and learning, rather than staring at the market every day hoping for a double. This principle sounds simple, but very few people can truly do it.

To be honest, I believe the number 99.99999%, and the people around me who cut the most are exactly like this.
This set of theories has been heard so many times that no one can truly stick to it.
The doubling dream is really addictive; I can't quit.

It's the same explanation again. I've heard it 100 times, but I still can't change myself.
Really, I feel like I'm that 99.99999% of people.
I understand the principles, but I just can't control my hands.

That's true, but very few people can actually do it, and I often face my own setbacks.
It's the same old story... I'm tired of hearing it, but it's truly the truth.
People are greedy; who wants to study carefully? Everyone just wants to take shortcuts.
That's right, I only understood after being cut.
Time > choosing coins; this priority must be set correctly.

There's nothing wrong with that, but most people simply can't do it. I also get attracted by new coins haha.
Always talking about research, but it's really just self-comfort. If you should lose, you still have to lose.
I've heard this a hundred times, but those who truly make money never tell you so straightforwardly.
That number, 99.99999%, I think it's still conservative.
Spending time on research? I only spend time brushing K-line charts, haha.

That's true, but to be honest, most people simply can't change this bad habit.
It's the same old routine, just listen and don't take it seriously.
Studying a hammer or looking at a K-line chart and thinking you can invest, huh?
This statement is partly correct, but also not entirely right. The key is who has the patience.
Out of 100 people, probably 99 are here just to gamble, haha.

You're right, but not many people listen. To be honest, 99.99999% of that group simply can't sit still and focus on research; they just want to go all-in and turn things around.
