Want to become a reliable investor? Focus your efforts on the fundamentals.



The market is a voting machine in the short term—full of emotional fluctuations and noise; only in the long term is it a scale—ultimately, it’s about strength and credibility.

What does this mean? Ignore the daily ups and downs and noise (that’s the market voting), and concentrate on analyzing the true value of the project (that’s the real chips). No matter how flashy the technology or how compelling the story, if the fundamentals are poor, you will eventually return to the starting point. Conversely, things with genuine value, even if currently undervalued, will be proven over time.

You're right, but how many people can truly stick to this approach? I know a bunch of people who watch the market every day but don't pay attention to fundamentals. Good fundamentals mean you can just sit back and win? How many projects in the crypto world are masterful at packaging, and even their financial reports can be faked? How long does it take to prove an undervaluation? My principal has already been wiped out. This theory sounds perfect, but in practice, you have to withstand the dips, which is difficult. Talking about fundamentals every day, but in the end, you can't keep up with those chasing hot trends, breaking down emotionally.

You're right, but it's really tough. I just can't stay away; I feel uncomfortable if I don't check the K-line for a day.

That's true, but the reality is that most people just can't break the habit of chasing the wind. Projects with strong fundamentals tend to rise the slowest; everyone is playing with emotions and narratives. There are still only a few truly reliable people, and I often get proven wrong. Things that are underestimated will be trapped before the day they are discovered.

It sounds good, but how many people can truly stick to it? Everyone around me is engaged in short-term trading, watching K-lines every day. No matter how solid the fundamentals are, the bear market will still cause prices to fall. When will that "time to prove" arrive? Technical analysis is just garbage, all self-deception; you still need to look at on-chain data. It sounds convincing, but the crypto world is just a voting machine. Fundamentals account for at most 30%, the rest is all about emotions and luck. Projects with real value have already been hoarded by big players, and the chances for retail investors to pick up bargains are basically zero. This theory might work in traditional stock markets, but it's hardly applicable in the crypto space, brother. I've seen projects underestimated for years, only to end up zero in the end. Don't think of fundamentals as sacred. The key is how to judge what "true value" really is. Everyone has their own standards, and in the end, it's still just gambling.

It's easy to say but hard to do. When prices rise, you get excited; when they fall, your mindset collapses. Who can truly remain indifferent? Projects with strong fundamentals are indeed attractive, but the question is how to distinguish genuine strength from just hype. People who watch the market every day have already been shaken out; you still need to have that resilience. Can you wait for undervalued assets? That's the real test of a person's patience. Good projects will indeed succeed, but the prerequisite is that you have to survive until that day.

You're not wrong. I've been fooled by the story of being squeezed by retail investors too many times. Fundamentals are the key; everything else is虚的. If you're still chasing the hot trends, just wait to get cut. Hold onto undervalued assets, and don't make reckless moves. In the end, the ones who win this bull market are those who can stay calm.

Well said, fundamentals are the key. Too many people are tempted by short-term gains, ending up with nothing. When evaluating projects, look at the data first, don't be brainwashed by marketing. Really, undervalued good things can eventually rise; it all depends on who can hold on. People who watch K-line charts every day should wake up already; those still playing emotional trading are basically newbies. With solid fundamentals, you can sleep peacefully; everything else is noise. No matter how good the story is, without cash flow it's useless. This time I gained a deep insight. Resisting the urge to check price fluctuations is really difficult, but only those who persist can make big money.

That's right, but 99% of people can't do it, including me😅 --- Undervalued projects do exist, the key is whether you can hold on until that day --- Having good fundamentals is great, but you still have to wait for market sentiment to return before it can rise --- It sounds comfortable, but in actual operation, I still can't help but chase the high --- The real test is whether you can continue to focus on fundamentals in the green hell --- The problem is everyone claims to look at fundamentals, but in the end, they all chase hot topics --- Time will prove everything, provided your funds can last until that day --- This theory is correct, but execution is the biggest enemy --- Long-term is correct, but how to survive in the short-term is another matter
