Reality is often quite harsh.

The market appears prosperous on the surface, but the underlying logic remains unchanged. Morning greeting bombardments, chasing algorithmic traffic, screen-spamming bots—these phenomena still exist. Engagement farming continues, and false prosperity cannot hide the truth.

Wealth always concentrates at the top. Large funds, big institutions, and influential accounts take the majority of the cake, making it difficult for retail investors to change the pattern no matter how hard they try.

Only a few people can reach the top in each cycle. Most are either eliminated or remain stagnant. This is not pessimism, but the brutal reality of the market.

As the crypto market has developed, the trend of monopoly has become increasingly obvious. Liquidity concentrates in top exchanges, token value concentrates among large holders, and influence is held by KOLs and institutions. This ecosystem has never been one of equality for all.
