Well, dear lovers of easy money, congratulations on your next 'victory.' Bitcoin has surpassed a hundred thousand, and the crypto world is bubbling again, like a pot with undercooked fantasy soup. Everyone believes that a new financial order is about to begin, where they will become billionaires, and the good old world will collapse under the pressure of the 'decentralized revolution.' But if you look at it without rose-colored glasses, it becomes clear: the market is not just standing still — it is quietly laughing at everyone who feeds it with their enthusiasm.
Let's figure out why the price is rising while 'real' things are not. First of all, the entire crypto market is not a financial utopia but a classic speculative pyramid. The people who got into the game first are sitting on huge reserves of coins and understand perfectly: the main thing is to inflate the hype in time and make the others believe in 'endless growth.' And while the crowd discusses how 'Bitcoin' will save the world from inflation and financial crises, the big players are methodically 'dumping' their assets, locking in profits while prices are high.
But no, of course, the masses do not want to acknowledge the obvious. Because in cryptocurrency, the main thing is faith. Faith that tomorrow they will wake up millionaires just because they hold a few digital numbers in their wallet. They don't care that the real sector of the economy is stagnant, and salaries are growing at the speed of a snail on a diet. The main thing is that the number on the screen is rising, and that means life is good!
The sarcasm lies in the fact that most crypto enthusiasts do not even understand what they have gotten into. They sincerely believe that they are participating in an 'innovative project,' although in reality, they are being used as fuel for a speculative bubble. The real value of crypto? Well, yes, of course, someday it will change the world... Maybe. But for more than ten years, this 'revolutionary tool' has been used exclusively for manipulations and large-scale theft.
So, what do we have? The price is rising, as is the faith in a bright future. The trouble is that all this resembles a party on the Titanic, where while the music is playing, no one notices the iceberg on the horizon. But when the bubble bursts again, of course, everyone will be to blame except those who thoughtlessly invested in it. 'Manipulators,' 'corruption,' 'banks,' 'the Fed' — the list of excuses is already prepared, and every crypto fan will gladly hand it out to their friends to explain why their 'brilliant investment' has sunk again.
In the end, there is only one question left: how many more such cycles need to be gone through for people to understand that they are playing a game with a predictable ending? Although no, why ask such questions. After all, faith is stronger than logic, and the hope to profit from the bubble is stronger than common sense. So we are waiting for the next round of the 'decentralized revolution.' And yes, don't forget to jump out on the way down when the price goes down again — if you can.
