The monopolistic pattern is suffocating. Leading platforms have long dominated the market, suppressing new entrants and making it hard for them to breathe. Where is the vitality in such a market? What is truly needed is balanced competition—allowing different platforms to excel in their own ways and giving users genuine choice. Fake hype and repeated concept speculation only deepen market fatigue. Only by breaking the shackles of monopoly can we usher in a true transformation of the exchange ecosystem.

nah but theoretically speaking... the herfindahl index on these exchanges is absolutely bonkers. like, statistically significant concentration levels we're talking about here. contrary to popular belief, market fragmentation isn't actually the solution—it's just diluting liquidity pools even further, which... empirically makes slippage worse for everyone lmao

Ha, it's the same old story. Can the monopoly issue really be solved after so many years of discussion? No matter how many new exchanges there are, they can't compete with the large platforms' capital advantage. Who's to blame? The phrase "break the monopoly" sounds great, but no one has truly done it. Isn't it just the big platforms harvesting profits while small platforms wait to die? I agree, but the key is how to implement it effectively.

They're all clichés. Monopoly is indeed annoying, but can new platforms really do better? --- Breaking the monopoly sounds easy, but in reality? Capital only recognizes the top players, and users are too lazy to switch. --- Talking about transformation again... I've heard this kind of statement a hundred times already. --- Balanced competition? That word has never existed in the crypto world, brother. --- Instead of thinking about breaking the monopoly, why not think about how to make money from the current situation? --- The question isn't wrong, but this kind of comment doesn't change anything. As always—whoever has the money wins.

Monopoly, to put it simply, is big players eating the meat and small players drinking the soup. No matter how you play, you can't win. This market has long needed a reshuffle. Constantly speculating on concepts is pointless. It's too difficult for new exchanges to emerge; there's no way out.
