A well-known investor recently made headlines again for bottom-fishing in a leading consumer goods company. As usual, the comment section was lively—some said he "got caught and now is just cutting the leeks"; others sarcastically remarked, "The cost is so low, I could do it too."

Seeing these comments, I really have nothing to say.

Thinking carefully about the logic of these people: okay, indeed, they made money because they bought at a low cost. Some tech stocks have risen a hundredfold, also because they bought early. But here’s the problem—since you all understand that the key is "bottom-fishing," where were you when the market was most desperate and everyone was calling that guy a fool?

Low cost is never a freebie that falls from the sky; it’s the result of maintaining a calm mind and strong resolve when assets are despised and trampled in the mud.

This simple principle is even more important in our crypto market. Whenever everyone is frantically chasing the hot concept that "will skyrocket," truly clear-headed people are already looking at another severely undervalued asset—not some "hundredfold potential coin," but the "central system" of the entire crypto ecosystem.

**The overlooked truth: Everyone wants a lottery ticket, but no one cares about infrastructure**

The market is actually trapped in a survivor’s trap. Everyone fantasizes about catching that one-in-a-hundred opportunity, but few think about what truly can withstand bull and bear cycles and support the growth of the entire industry.

When a piece of news can trigger a market frenzy, and funds are rapidly switching among various new tokens, a more fundamental and critical need is being ignored—regardless of whether you’re in a bull or bear market, whether a coin surges or crashes, the entire crypto economy has always relied on one thing: a stable, trustworthy, and efficient medium for value measurement and transaction.

This is the core worth paying attention to.
