Launching tokens isn't inherently wrong, but the flex game? Flaunting six-figure gains while your top performer barely cracks mid-six figures, meanwhile you've got a hundred thousand eyes watching across the internet—that's where it gets hollow. Because here's the thing: crypto markets are zero-sum. Your win is literally someone else's loss. Real retail traders are bleeding out while the narrative gets spun as overnight success. The hype machine keeps grinding, but underneath it all, there's a fundamental imbalance nobody talks about loudly enough.

Wow, that hits too close to home. I've seen this routine too many times: screenshots of six-figure profits, with hundreds of thousands of people jealous below, and then ninety-nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine people going bankrupt immediately after. Cryptocurrency really is like that; the money you make truly comes from other people's accounts.

The logic of zero-sum game itself has flaws. In the cross-chain liquidity mining protocol architecture, it is not purely zero-sum, but there are indeed information asymmetry attack vectors — that's the real issue.

Well said, retail investors are just the chopped leeks; this game has never been fair.

Oh dear, it's the same old story again. The "zero-sum game" cliché has been overused.

Honestly, I'm tired of this routine of harvesting retail investors. What's the point of showing off six-figure profits? Don't you see the bunch of retail investors suffering heavy losses behind?
