Continuing from the previous text, when I first bought OM, it was because its price was not high, the fixed deposit interest was good, and it suited my long-term spot investment ideas. I had no idea about the content or the sector, but luck allowed my account to profit nicely. Additionally, the period of price manipulation was long enough, unlike most of the altcoin pumps that felt like just a quick rise to cut the retail investors and then end. Therefore, I also got lost for a while, thinking that investing in some promising altcoins could improve performance. So, I followed some trends and used a portion of my profits to buy Meme coins and some industries I have long believed in, such as pharmaceuticals, and I also participated in the early activities of Alpha. Because the investment experience of the initial surge of OM made me overlook the fact that altcoins are far more illusory than mainstream coins, and many new coins have not undergone market refinement; some are just concepts and slogans, and it even feels like they are just issuing new coins to extract money from the market. The airdrop points of Alpha tied to transactions in altcoins, as the points kept increasing, required very low costs for each transaction to continue obtaining airdrops. Otherwise, one must increase the investment in altcoins. Later, I discovered that investing in altcoins was not as easy to judge as I imagined, and the rise of altcoins was actually mainly due to artificial speculation. Many of the so-called positive news were released for the sake of manipulation. During the speculation period of OM, the total issuance could actually be changed to allow for infinite issuance, which meant that the project operators could increase the token supply while raising the price to harvest the market, while most long-term holders were attracted by the long-term high interest rates and locked their chips. The operators also heavily created the illusion that OM coins were real assets and collaborated with many important institutions, ultimately ending with a drop of over 90% in a single day. In response to everyone's doubts after the drop, the operators came out to say they would buy back, etc. In fact, these are all common methods used by major players to trap retail investors. In traditional finance, if such methods were used, they would be accompanied by investment investigations and legal responsibilities. But in the crypto space, it is just a script being played out. Because the current situation in the crypto space is like this, my investments are mainly operated with mainstream coins and fiat currencies. Investment in the crypto space requires trust, but without a system, where does trust come from? We wait for further developments. $BNB $SOL
