#数字资产市场动态 There are quite a few curses in the comment section, so today I’ll just vent and complain.



Crypto scammers, is Bitcoin a scam? I used to criticize it like that when I was young. After criticizing, I felt really relieved, like the world was back to what I was familiar with. But then I started to ask myself, is that really the case?

Thinking about it, there are three things worth pondering.

First, if Bitcoin is really a scam, why isn’t it the kind of scheme that "pulls up the price, dumps, then changes masks and comes back"? It has persisted for over ten years like this. Global regulators are watching it closely, it’s been declared "dead" countless times, hash power keeps reshuffling, and participants have changed several waves. Could scammers have this much patience? This doesn’t look like fraud; it more resembles a system that no one can shut down.

Second, what about the most rational, realistic big capital that relies on intuition? They didn’t come in to expose this scheme immediately, but instead repeatedly test, research, and re-enter. These people profit from seeing through scams. Would they be willing to be played willingly? That’s unlikely.

Third, the most thought-provoking point—if it’s a scam, then who have we truly been angry at all these years? Is it Bitcoin itself, or is it a world that’s changing without your consent?

Gradually, I realized that many of the curses are not about analyzing the asset but about defending the order we are used to.

The market is so cold-blooded: it owes no one any comfort.

Now I no longer dare to casually say "it must be like this" either. But I also let go of the easiest word—"scam." Using that to explain something that has lasted over ten years and hasn’t been proven wrong feels not serious enough.

I’m not advising you to go all in, nor am I asking you to believe. Just saying, some questions, after cursing, still need to be thought through by yourself.

That's quite reasonable. Compared to blindly bearish, thinking things through yourself is indeed more valuable. But to be fair, big capital inflows are not always based on optimism; sometimes it's just a gamble on probabilities.

No problem with that. I was also a troll back then. Thinking about it now, it's quite embarrassing. A scam can last for more than ten years? Well, I bow to that. Capital isn't stupid. Repeatedly entering the market must have a reason. The most heartbreaking thing is that sentence. We're not actually criticizing BTC, but the change itself.

Realizing this point indeed takes time; I also took several years of cursing before I understood it.

It's true that awakening made me realize that after all these years of criticism, I was actually criticizing my own fear.

People speak quite honestly, criticize as they may, but few actually think things through. --- I love this logic. Big capital is constantly researching, how could it be a scam? --- Well said. Instead of criticizing Bitcoin, better ask yourself what you're afraid of. --- It's been over ten years and it's still alive, which in itself shows the problem, doesn't it? --- Those trolls are really just a mindset issue. They haven't even bought in and are already shifting blame. --- Yes, indeed. Many people just dislike change and then blame BTC. --- Cold-blooded market, it doesn't care whether you're angry or resentful. --- This perspective is quite fresh. After criticizing, you really should think it over yourself. --- Big capital's moves are the most honest. If they didn't believe, they'd have already exited.

The statement is not wrong, but is big capital really entering just because they see the "system"? I think it's more about betting on liquidity and policy trends. It's too idealistic to say otherwise; in the end, it all comes back to the old question — who is harvesting whom's leeks.

Awakening quite late, but better than constantly criticizing. Not dying after more than ten years says something, doesn't it? --- Indeed, many of those shouting scam haven't really studied it. Just for the sake of happiness. --- Big capital has repeatedly entered the market, and we're still complaining? Isn't that counterproductive? --- Defending order hits this point. The feeling of fear of change is more real than criticizing Bitcoin. --- Alright, I admit I was convinced by this logic. Not all in, but let's not jump to conclusions either. --- Not proven wrong in over ten years, this clue is indeed worth pondering. Change of perspective. --- Instead of criticizing, think about why you hate it so much. Maybe it's just fear. --- Major institutions are testing the waters to enter, and retail investors are still criticizing in the comment section? What's the point? --- Makes sense. Many people aren't criticizing Bitcoin itself, but their anxiety about falling behind. --- No one owes you comfort in the market. This sentence hits too close to home.

That's quite right. Even though people criticize, the fact that it hasn't failed after more than ten years says something, doesn't it?
