Facts and The funny part is this doesnβt just apply to Bitcoin.
Iβve watched the same thing play out in the XRP community to SOLO, Coreum, and TX, to many others in these crypto streets.
People talk about doing research, but most of what they call research is repeating whatever influencer, Spaces host, or community figure they already agree with. The second reality starts exposing flaws in the narrative, the story changes, the targets move, and somehow the people who were wrong yesterday become the experts again today.
Many donβt study fundamentals, adoption, utility, liquidity, token economics, or even their own performance. They study confirmation bias.
Thatβs why some sit through massive drawdowns, hold losing positions for years, ignore opportunity cost, and still convince themselves theyβre winning because someone posted a bullish chart or a new narrativeππprime examples in recent interactions on my feedππ
Bitcoin tricks you into thinking youβre saving by constantly spending.
It βforces you to learn,β but half the community only studies other peopleβs opinions. The white paper is 9 pages, the code is public, but most people would rather repeat narratives than actually understand what they own.
Then they tell you to βquestion everythingβ until your questions start making the room look dumb.
Thatβs when the freedom talk gets quiet.
Because a lot of people ainβt free. Theyβre just walking around with the same stress, same ego, same habits, same emotional decisions as yesterdayβ¦ but now they cope by saying, βItβs for my kidsβ future.β

If it was really for the kids, youβd be teaching them how to think, not just handing them a bag you never learned how to manage. Dummie
