Most crypto losers fall into 2 "death traps" — and I almost lost 20,000 USDT

In my years of rolling around in the market, I’ve come to realize a harsh truth: people lose money in crypto not because the market is difficult, but because they fall into exactly two classic traps. One is to hug the “zombie coins” waiting to come to shore. The second is to be sucked into “infinite inflation coins – investors’ cash machines”. If you don’t understand the nature of these two coins, sooner or later the market will teach you a very expensive lesson. Today I will make it clear so that you can avoid the car crashes that I have encountered.

  1. “Zombie coins” – Dead coins but keepers still hope This group immediately recognized it at a glance. They have common characteristics: ✔ Outdated Technology – Code Not Updated You open GitHub and you’ll see that there hasn’t been a single new line of code for the whole year, and no one has contributed more. The project stands still, and the market runs at the speed of light — inevitably left behind. ✔ Community disintegrates – Telegram is silent, Twitter says yes In the chat group, no one asked him for 2-3 days. Twitter only posts a few clichéd slogans: one day it is “AI”, the other day it is “Metaverse”, but there is absolutely no product, there is no actual progress. ✔ Delisted at any time I once hugged an altcoin and one fine day received a notification: “This token is suspended from trading as of today.” The price immediately returned to 0, did not have time to run, did not have time to cut losses. At that time, I understood: a dead coin will never return, only investors are stubborn. 👉 Final Results You think you’re holding an “asset,” but you’re actually just holding a digital memory, and the project team is long gone.
  2. “Infinite Inflation Coins” – Investors’ Cash Machines This is what makes countless people lose their cleanliness without knowing that they are being “squeezed”. Identification characteristics: ✔ Token Issuance bluff The unlock token project is selling, market makers discharge, investors discharging — only retail is hugging. The longer you hold on, the lower the price will be because of the uncontrolled increase in supply. ✔ Investors soon withdrew, only retail was left as liquidity People who buy private prices are 20–50 times lower than you. They are just waiting for the token to be unlocked to sell to those who think they are “bottoming”. ✔ Prices fell more tragically than inflationary fiat money Classic examples: OMG: from $20 → $0.2 (mất 99%)STRAT: fall fasterFIL: every unlock is a first plug A lot of people think that “low prices are opportunities”. But the truth is that all your money becomes profit for the manipulative team.
  3. Sincere advice for newcomers to the market Crypto is not for dreamers. If you want to survive, you must know how to avoid deep pits: ❌ Don’t be greedy Cheap coins do not mean that coins have potential. Many dong is cheap because… It’s worth it. ❌ Don’t Believe in “Belief” 99% of projects that are dead will never come back to life. Don’t wait for a miracle from something that has been discarded by the market. ❌ Stay away from infinite inflation coins Without tokenomics analysis, → loses is certain. ✔ Holding only projects with: Real TeamReal ProductReal CommunityClear Revenue or Use-CaseTokenomics Doesn’t Suck Blood Conclude Losses in crypto are not because you are unlucky, but because you have not seen the essence. By simply avoiding these two poisonous coins, you have reduced your risk by 80%.
