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

[KryptoBull]

"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 love this kind of straightforward and direct approach! Everything boils down to economics, money, and profit. Crypto is growing faster than blockchain because most people want to make money rather than explore the potential of blockchain!

Many have convinced themselves that they are pursuing technology and solutions for the future to soothe their investment emotions. This happens because they don't fully understand the nature of the markets, the necessity of high liquidity, and the crucial role of crypto for blockchain. I'm lucky not to belong to this group; I'm more pragmatic. I invest in crypto to make a profit, not to feel like I'm keeping up with the 4.0 era. I'm worried because the BTC price dropped by 10%, but I slept soundly when the OM price lost 90% of its value because I didn't have OM in my account

There is no alternative to money to manage life so it is true that all of us here are working for money. Since it is human nature so any person can get this source of earning money from crypto if they want. Crypto is not legal in my country yet many of us are involved in this crypto. I think my income is not illegal because i earn this money through various jobs. Those who have been investing in bitcoin for a long time here will never be disappointed. However, those who struggle with investing in altcoins are at a loss to some extent. We have seen that most altcoins initially have good hype but after a while, all those altcoins die.

If we are going to treat this as just an investment thing then there is no way forward, the Loop will go on and on, new shitcoins will come and replace the old ones, making the earliest one to grab to opportunity to richer while the average user is just gonna be on the losing side for most of the time.

Decentralisation, an effective tool against the rigged fiat system is what we should adopt when it comes to crypto currency rather than just bump and dump.

Or worse, consciously enabling?

One of the biggest lies is that everyone who invests in cryptocurrency will be rich.

That is a lie because not everyone will be rich from cryptocurrency; there will be investors who be left poorer from investment in cryptocurrency and that may be as a result of the choices they make of what to invest in, security choices as well too.
