Remember when those crypto options platforms were all the rage? Some DEX options protocols too?
Look, I get it - options trading is basically speedrunning your way to zero balance. The math doesn't lie on that front.
But here's the thing: when you actually nail the timing and direction? That's your ticket to 20x gains, sometimes more. Yeah, that's not exactly what the textbooks say options are "for" - proper hedging and all that boring stuff.
But honestly? Give me that lottery ticket potential any day. That's the real reason I'm here.

ngl that's pretty real, it's just gambler mentality packaged as investing. The thrill of 20x is really addictive.

To put it bluntly, it's just a gambler's mentality. That's what I think too.

NGL, who can resist the temptation of that 20x... Going bankrupt or getting rich happens in an instant.
