Capital gameplay is so simple and brutal. Its script is always the same—first draining the market, and when people are completely desperate, it returns as a savior. After a round of frenzy, everyone is hyped up, hoping to rekindle. And then? On an inconspicuous night, all chips are quietly harvested.

Most people in the crypto world are caught in this cycle. But there are exceptions—those who are not eventually cut out, but instead become co-conspirators of capital, like Buffett, transforming from the ones being harvested to the harvesters themselves. The key difference lies here: whether to passively accept market reshuffling or actively understand the game rules. The former gets cut ten times, while the latter has already moved to the other side of the table.

The vampire script in the crypto world is really next level. Old brothers are still dreaming. To put it simply, you still need money, connections, and insider information; otherwise, being cut ten times is the minimum. Just look at Buffett and his crew; it's clear they're not even playing the same game. The key is that most people don't even realize they've been cut. This cycle has started again, and people are truly numb. If you don't learn the rules, you'll eventually have to settle the bill—that's the truth.

That's right, but the real difference lies in the principal. Those with initial accumulation and those without play completely different games. --- It's the same old story... The problem is, ordinary people don't have the chips to understand the game rules. --- Alright, I admit it, it's just a leek harvesting machine. As long as people keep entering, it can keep spinning. --- It all sounds like nonsense. The key is that you need to have the first amount of money to get to the table, no real conspiracy involved. --- That's why I only play staking—steady income without fussing around. --- Buffett's approach doesn't apply at all in the crypto world; it's all about information warfare. --- Got it, either get in early or don't get in at all. Those who enter in the middle are doomed to be squeezed. --- Basically, it's a matter of timing. If you hit the right node, you can reverse the situation; if you miss, no matter how smart you are, it's useless. --- Interesting, so only those gambling with their lives still dare to enter now.

Wake up, most people can't even get into the game, still dreaming of a reversal --- No matter how eloquently you put it, it doesn't change our fate as the little guys --- The key is to have enough capital to cross that hurdle; without money, you can't get to the table --- Cycle? We'll just be part of the background in the cycle; waking up is pointless --- The real winners got in during the first round; latecomers dreaming of a turnaround are basically delusional --- Who sets the rules of the game? Do we have a say? Don't be ridiculous --- So the answer is either have money or don't play; it's that cruel --- I actually think Buffett's approach can't be learned now; times have changed, and so have the personas --- Those who understand the rules have long made their money and gone into hiding; the rest are still dreaming --- One wrong step and it's all over; who can guarantee they won't be the one to get harvested

No problem with what you said, it's just one word—suffering. Most people have no choice at all, they've already been trapped and killed by the套路. --- After playing this套路 for so many years, there are still people jumping in, truly incredible. --- I just want to know how to get out of the group of people who got割, is there a way? --- The core is still information asymmetry; those who hold the information will always eat the meat, others find it hard to even drink the soup. --- Climb to the other side? First, you have to survive until that day, otherwise it's all pointless. --- Every time I think I can escape, I get taught a lesson again. Maybe my brain isn't suited for this game. --- The game of capital was originally designed for capital; who can I blame? --- Let me ask in return, has anyone really turned the tide by understanding the rules, or is this also just a dream? --- Getting used to being割 is a fact; anyway, I've long been numb. --- The conspirators really make money with a smile, and they look anxious too.

You’re damn right, that’s the truth of the crypto world. Ordinary people simply can’t see through it and keep getting passively taken advantage of. You need to learn to take the initiative and stop being a leek. It’s easy to say but hard to do, and that’s the most heartbreaking part. Market makers always win, unless you also become a market maker. Hey, by the way, when will I be able to cash out and reach the top? This script has been recycled so many times, yet some still fall for it. The key is to become the one doing the taking as early as possible, the sooner the better.
