I recently looked at some market data, it's quite interesting.

Small retail accounts in the hundred thousand yuan level account for the most, resulting in a loss rate as high as 98%. In contrast, large fund accounts at the ten million yuan level have a loss rate of less than 1%.

What is behind this? In fact, the stock market does not create wealth; at most, it is just a redistribution of wealth. Funds flow from small accounts to large accounts, and that’s how the structure is.

What is the situation in the crypto space? I think it might be even more exaggerated. Retail investors are being cut during fluctuations, while institutions are laying out at the bottom and unloading at high positions. This logic seems to be more naked in the crypto market.

#BTC资金流动性 This is especially true for these large cryptocurrencies. Whoever controls liquidity and information asymmetry holds the rights to profits.

I wonder if anyone has market data on this aspect? I'd like to hear everyone's thoughts on this phenomenon.

BTC-0.42%

ETH-0.48%

BNB-0.95%

This is the game rule, retail investors simply can't compete. It feels like being played for suckers again, watching others make money while I lose. I wouldn't say 98% loss is that exaggerated, but I do end up being a dumb buyer every time. Information asymmetry is everything; have you ever thought about getting out? Institutions are at the bottom while we are at the top, this game is designed perfectly. Liquidity is really a pain in the ass, feels no different from gambling. But let's keep playing anyway, there really is no other way out.

98% loss, this data is a bit shocking, I feel like I need to look at the sample size This is the cruel reality of information disparity, retail investors are always a step behind Institutions are lying in ambush at the bottom, while retail investors are still chasing the price and cutting losses, it's really something In the crypto world, it gets even harsher, retail investors only start to panic when liquidity is locked up I think this data needs to be taken with a grain of salt, but the overall direction is correct.

A 98% loss rate? I believe it, retail investors are designed to hand over money. --- The key is the information gap, we are always a step behind. --- So, the crypto world is basically a cash machine for Large Investors, we are just the transaction fees. --- This data is too heartbreaking, no wonder my account keeps shrinking. --- Whoever controls the Liquidity wins, the rules of the game have never changed. --- Bottom-level retail investors are always the dumb buyers, that's the reality. --- It makes me angry to think about it, while institutions are laying out plans, we are still debating whether to buy or not. --- Large funds only have a 1% loss rate, while we have 98%, the gap is really obvious. --- The crypto world is even darker than the stock market, at least the stock market has some regulations, here it’s just wild growth. --- Have any pros shared reverse thinking strategies? Just following the movements of Large Investors seems reliable.
