One of the reasons is that people who have made a lot of money by speculating in cryptocurrencies are generally more cautious, and the more cautious people are, the more cautious they tend to be. Cautious people are generally more low-key.
Reason two: People who make a lot of money by speculating in cryptocurrencies generally only care about the market and have little interest in other things in life. Therefore, it is difficult for them to make many friends based on their hobbies. For example, those who love photography, singing, running, and playing ball can make a lot of friends. However, people who are good at speculating in cryptocurrencies often spend a lot of time on technical research every day. As a result, their social circle is narrow and they lack friends based on their broad interests.
Even if there are a few friends, most of them are also leeks. However, once the leeks have different levels, operating habits, and trading models, it is almost difficult to communicate deeply. Therefore, it is actually difficult for leeks to make extensive friends. This leads to the fact that people who speculate in cryptocurrencies are generally lonely and have a narrow circle of friends. As we all know, there is no need to show off in a high-profile manner in a group of strangers. Therefore, people who make a lot of money by speculating in cryptocurrencies are generally low-key.
Reason three: Generally speaking, people who are engaged in industry or business and have a net worth of tens of millions must know several "big brothers" in both the underworld and the white world. The reason is very simple. In today's business environment, if you don't make friends with a few "big brothers" in both the underworld and the white world, you would have been swallowed up by others long ago. How could you have grown so big?
However, even if a person who trades in cryptocurrencies makes hundreds of millions, there probably won’t be many people from the underworld or white world in his circle of friends. In fact, the richer a person becomes from cryptocurrency trading, the further he or she will tend to stay away from those people to reduce the possibility of being tempted by their wealth.
Therefore, even if you have made hundreds of millions of dollars in cryptocurrency trading, since there is no one behind you and you have no backing, you have no other way to solve problems except money. Although money can solve many problems, it is much less powerful than the "iron relationship" formed in long-term power-money transactions, and you must always be on guard against the person who helps you solve the problem and finds out that you are rich, and then he turns around and blackmails you for money. For example, if you ask the underworld to fight your enemies, or ask officials to help you, they will find out that you are rich but lack defense, and they will definitely attack you sooner or later. You ask them to solve your temporary problems, but they may become your problems in the long run, so what can you do?
Therefore, people who make a lot of money by speculating in cryptocurrencies generally have to keep a low profile.
In general, being low-key is sometimes a proactive move due to personality factors, but more often it is a necessary retreat to avoid being noticed by others.
Those who are successful in cryptocurrency trading are actually the most capable financial elites in our society. When the financial elites of a society are in such a weak position, it shows that:
1. This society is a power-centered society, and finance is just a vassal of power.
2. In the minds of most people, those who make money in the cryptocurrency market are not considered as investors, but as lucky gamblers. This also shows that in the minds of most people, the cryptocurrency market is closer to a casino than an investment market.
