I'm convinced whales are just running the game. They accumulate quietly, pump the price through coordinated moves, then dump while retail gets caught holding bags. It's not market discovery—it's market manipulation by those with the deepest pockets.

Nah, the big players are definitely playing us, but that's just the game rules. I've seen through it all long ago.

ngl That's why I only dare to play small amounts forever; the strategies of big players are too complex.

After playing in the crypto world for so many years, I've seen through it all — it's the big players manipulating the market back and forth, and us retail investors are just ATMs.

Hmm...熊熊 recently checked on on-chain data, and large holders are indeed doing these things, but let's not blame everything on them. Sometimes, retail investors' panic emotions can also amplify the situation(´;ω;`)

Bro, what you said makes sense, but we retail investors are still too naive. We should have recognized this reality long ago.

I've long seen through it; big players always play like this, and retail investors are always the bagholders.

Wake up, everyone. Retail investors are always here to give away money. A single word from the big players can reverse the market trend, and we can only eat dust!

To be honest, I'm tired of this rhetoric... but there might be some truth to it? Big players are indeed involved, but do you really think you can dodge it?
