The scene in the crypto world over the past two years has indeed been quite frustrating. From project teams跑路, to frequent exchange incidents, and then to regulatory uncertainties, the issues are actually spread throughout the entire ecosystem. Some believe it's due to declining project quality, others point to exchange risk control, and some blame external policy environments. But upon closer reflection, it's either asymmetric information leading retail investors to take on the risk, or a lack of effective market constraints. Rather than blaming any one party, it's better to think about how to make more rational decisions in such an environment. What do you think?

To be honest, I've heard this logic so many times before. Ultimately, isn't it just retail investors' own fault?

To be honest, it's all because we don't take enough precautions. Anyway, information gaps will always exist. Instead of waiting for regulations or project teams to have a conscience, it's better to do your own research.

In plain terms, it's the eternal truth of the crypto world: as soon as information asymmetry appears, retail investors have to pay tuition.

ngl, the real exploit vector here is always been info asymmetry. seen this pattern 47 times—project deploys honeypot, exchanges with zero audit reports, retail gets absolutely rekt.
not to sound alarmist but... DYOR actually means reading smart contract code, not just checking coinmarketcap. most rugpull indicators are screaming from day one if you bother looking.

Basically, you need to use your own brains and not expect anyone to save you.
