Back when $URANUS was all the rage, I watched people throw everything they had into it. You'd get labeled a "hater" if you weren't all-in. Expensive tuition, but here's what stuck with me—nobody's actually got real alpha. Not really. The people who consistently win? They're not smarter traders. They've got access. Government connections. Inside tracks. The rest of us are just moving pieces on the same board, chasing what the previous guy already knew about. That's the hard truth about speculation in crypto.

Wow, isn't this what we're all experiencing? Information gap crushes everything.

I've seen through it long ago. Those people just rely on connections to get by. No matter how hard we retail investors try, it's all in vain.

NGL, that's why I’ve always thought that trading is all about information asymmetry, and it’s not really a technical issue at all.

NGL, this is exactly what I've been wanting to say: making money in the crypto world is not really about technology, it's all about information asymmetry and background.

Basically, it's a game of information asymmetry—whoever knows first wins.

Damn, that's why I lost money. We're not even playing the same game at all.
