The dilemma of LTC is not in the price itself, but in expectations management.

Most people entering the market are deceived by a false illusion: that every asset dances to a certain predetermined rhythm. Halving should lead to a sharp price surge, user growth should push the chart upward, and with enough time, profits will naturally be realized.

But in reality, the market doesn't operate that way at all. The reality is far more complex than linear expectations. Price, cycles, growth—these elements are interconnected in ways that are not as straightforward as people imagine. The core issue is that most participants view the market too simplistically.
