After a round of education, in the next round no one will buy counterfeit products, only BTC

Let's not talk about the altcoins for now, this altcoin market, I've truly seen it for the first time in so many years. It has continuously dropped for two months, and altcoins have basically fallen by more than 90%. If the crypto market continues like this, it will really be finished. Without altcoin trends, is there still any interest in this crypto market? It's just some KOLs (Key Opinion Leaders) harvesting retail investors. Retail investors can just do spot trading; there's really no need to listen to those so-called KOLs. You never know, they might not be as good as you are. Don't get misled by their marketing. Lastly, let me ask, is shorting now a way to make money? How many people think so?
