I recently came across a report on the changes in wealth distribution, and the data is quite shocking. The report shows that the total assets of 1.3 billion ordinary people have dropped from 7% to 3% in just two years. What does this mean? In simple terms, the wealth held by ordinary people is shrinking, but this money hasn't disappeared; it is continuously flowing to the top-tier capital and resource circles.

This is not just market volatility; fundamentally, it is a structural transfer of wealth. As an investor who has observed the crypto market for many years, I want to say that instead of complaining about the "bad environment," it’s better to face two core issues: first, not having assets that truly hedge against inflation. Traditional savings cannot keep up with the depreciation rate, and many financial products have their own problems; second, information asymmetry has been pushed to the extreme. By the time you learn about an opportunity, you often have already missed the best timing.

How can ordinary people protect themselves in this environment? The crypto market is indeed one of the few options, but the premise is that you must be rational. The market is flooded with "hundredfold coins"

Honestly, the drop from 7% to 3% is really heartbreaking, but it's been obvious for a long time. Years of observing the crypto world is just to avoid this blow. Traditional finance is really garbage. Hedge against inflation? Crypto might be the only way out, but don't chase those hundredfold coins. Information gap equals wealth gap. Waking up too late means you'll be completely harvested. Ordinary people, doing nothing really means waiting to be slaughtered. The problem is, those who dare to act are already losing money. Wealth transfer? More accurately, wealth destruction. Most people don't even have assets to transfer. Crypto requires careful analysis; it's not about all-in. Rationality is key. 7% to 3%, that's the cost of having no plan. It was about time to get on board.

7% down to 3%, these numbers are really incredible. We're just the ones getting chopped like leeks. --- That's right, traditional finance is secretly depreciating, unless you jump into crypto. --- Information asymmetry is so cruel. By the time we see the news, we're already the bagholders. --- All hundredfold coins are scams. I've seen many projects, but I've never seen one that's truly legit. --- Ordinary people really need to find inflation-resistant assets, but crypto is too deep for old brothers. --- Every time I hear "the macro environment is bad," I just want to laugh. Ultimately, it's because we didn't choose the right investments. --- Structural shifts sound nice, but in reality, it just means the poor are getting poorer. --- Crypto market self-protection? First ask yourself if you have the psychological resilience to cut losses. --- The money of 1.3 billion people flows to the top. If Web3 is the savior, I’ll livestream eating my screen. --- Rational investing in crypto? Are there rational people in the market? I ask you.

Honestly, the drop from 7% to 3% is really a knife, it feels like money has been sucked out. Traditional financial management has long been unfeasible; we must find new outlets. Crypto involves high risks but also real opportunities; the key is to stay calm and not follow the herd. Information gap is crucial; knowing early or late makes a world of difference. Ordinary people need to learn self-rescue; sitting and waiting will only get you cut even more harshly.

7% down to 3%, these numbers are really crazy, money just evaporated like that Exactly, I've already gone all in on crypto, the traditional methods are no longer viable Hundredfold coins are all scams, I just dollar-cost average into mainstream coins and sleep peacefully The information gap is truly incredible, retail investors are always the last to know Instead of waiting to be harvested, it's better to toughen up and learn some DeFi basics

7% down to 3%, these numbers are really shocking, feeling like wealth is accelerating its polarization Watching it, I can't help but think that my savings can't keep up with inflation, I need to find a way The information gap is truly incredible; by the time we know, it's already too late. This is the reality The crypto market can save itself, but you need to be smart. Don't follow the crowd and listen to stories of "monthly income of a million" The hardest part is persistence, which is probably the key for ordinary people to turn things around Money tends to concentrate at the top, this has been the case throughout history and across the world. It all depends on who can react in time Instead of complaining, take action, but before acting, do your homework thoroughly. Don't be a bagholder The logic of making money has changed; it's high time to break out of traditional thinking frameworks
