How can I play this project to break even? The day before yesterday, it was going quite smoothly, with participation exceeding the minimum amount by fifty to sixty thousand. As a result, yesterday I was overtaken by 130,000, and I thought about adding more to try again, so I invested another 66,000. Only then did I realize that the trading volume requirement had quietly increased, and the previous $10 investment was essentially a loss. Now I’m stuck in a dilemma—I've already spent $35. Should I continue adding or admit defeat and exit? These sudden rule changes are indeed quite frustrating. I wonder if anyone else has encountered similar situations.

Wow, they secretly changed the rules? Typical project team tactics, I've seen it happen several times.

Bro, this operation is truly a classic rookie playbook, changing the rules and adding more... Honestly, I've seen many projects quietly changing parameters; it's wiser to walk away. Keep throwing money in? Really, if you can get out, just get out.

Damn, I've seen too many tricks of secretly changing rules like this, it's really disgusting. Keep throwing and throwing, isn't this a typical loss chasing trap... $35 has already been invested, I think accepting the loss is better, don't continue to bleed. These types of projects are deeply deceptive, they love to change the rules before running away, be careful not to be harvested completely. The $35 tuition fee, remembering this lesson is worth it, otherwise you'll have to keep paying the IQ tax.

Buddy, this is the gambler's fallacy—chasing losses only makes it worse.

Hmm... Isn't this just a live scene of cutting leeks? --- Damn, they changed the rules but didn't say a word. I've seen this routine too many times. --- 35 dollars have already been invested. Instead of continuing to bleed, it's better to treat it as tuition. --- This type of project is typical of first being sweet, then bitter. They lure you in early on, then suddenly change the rules and turn hostile. --- I've also encountered this before. I was greedy and added a few more trades, and in the end, I just considered it a tip. --- If it were me, I would just exit immediately. Don't wait any longer, that's a signal. --- Why are you still hesitating? Cutting losses early is the smart move. --- Looking at this cost, rather than wasting money and gambling on luck, it's better to cut losses in time.
