Looking across the entire crypto space, the truly good projects are few and far between—countable on one hand. If you filter strictly, there might be fewer than ten. If you go even harder, it’s probably hard to gather five. And the rest? Mostly zero-sum games.

What is a zero-sum game? To put it in a popular phrase: "You want to make my money, I want to make your money; it’s not about who cuts whom, it’s about mutual competition." In this environment, individuals might earn enough to improve their lives, but opportunities that can change generations and create real wealth? Rare to see.

In the long run, most people lose money in this fierce competition. Only professional traders can steadily earn some scattered profits—they rely on faster reactions, a tougher mindset, and a cooler head. Playing this game mostly involves consumption—watching K-line charts, digging through communities, guessing the intentions of big players, chasing hot trends—exhausting and unprofitable.

Here’s the interesting part: those truly valuable assets, besides Bitcoin, almost can’t establish a consensus among the masses. Ethereum, Solana, Binance Chain—no matter how excellent—they always face doubts and opposition. But Bitcoin is different. If ten years ago someone bought in at a fixed price and then did nothing, they’ve truly seen through the essence of the game—understood what real scarcity and truly irreplaceable consensus mean.

Looking at those who, ten years ago, studied Bitcoin’s daily charts every day, analyzing golden crosses, death crosses, Bollinger Bands, MACD, KDj, Fibonacci retracements—retrospectively, they missed the point. Those technical details, in the end, are useless. Holding long-term those truly valuable assets is what shows you’ve really understood this game.
