What’s the biggest lie we’re all telling ourselves in crypto right now?

[slapper]

"This is not about the money."

That serves as the default shield, right? Tech, decentralization, community, freedom. But watch behaviour: 98% here for gain rather than code. We stake, farm, flip, ape, pretend to be concerned about values, then FOMO into the next memecoin

Even builders secretly want exit liquidity. Even governance is often just post-sale theatre. We are being human in a system designed to favour curiosity over structure; we are not being bad

So here’s the thing: Can this industry be revolutionary if its core behavior is identical to Wall Street, just faster, more anonymous, and with better memes?

Drop your lie. Say it loud. Make it clear. Then start to rebuild something actual

What lie are you still holding onto? Or worse, consciously enabling?

I have no lie to share when it comes to money and my involvement with cryptocurrency industry. I already admitted it years ago that first and foremost am here for the money because if I was sure that there is no money that can be made here then maybe I would decide that I won't waste my time here, And I know am not alone on this aspect. We are all human beings and we need money. And if there is somebody who is not for the money then maybe he can be here for no reason at all. Now, that does not mean that we are all limited to money because if one is not providing something valuable then money will not come, in the first place. And that truth goes a lot to platforms and projects all vying for our attention...if they can not provide innovations then money will not come gushing like a spring.

it's already been revolutionary yes money and profit is a huge part of the industry it is where people earn and people want to earn but at the very core, the technology coming out of crypto is what will drive it forward nowadays the blockchain technology is not just used in crypto but in other industries as well

What lie are you still holding onto? Or worse, consciously enabling?

i do not know what is mine to be honest i believe that everything i believe right now has some truth to it i am always open to be proven wrong and be taught better but for now i stand by with my opinions

Money is always motivator for humans, and I don't think there is anything wrong with it. On a flipside, look at this way, crypto has value because people must be finding something in it that's worth having value.

To be honest if I tell about myself then I have to say that I have lots of lie to say about the altcoins, because I have seen lots of network has been doing really good in the first but gradually day drop their all kinds of performance and also drop there potentially from the market.

But for Bitcoin I have nothing to say the lie, maybe those people can tell some, who were invest here for short term but those who did for long term investment in bitcoin I can say they won't gonna face anything which will push them to lie some.
