#稳定币应用 Recently, I saw the news about Venezuela's $60 billion in crypto assets. My first reaction was not surprise, but a stronger conviction in a simple truth: asset security always comes first.



This case is very enlightening. To evade sanctions, the Venezuelan government converted gold and oil into Bitcoin and USDT. Their seemingly clever multi-chain strategy ultimately became a mystery the moment the regime changed. Those carefully dispersed private keys across multiple jurisdictions and complex multi-signature mechanisms are fragile in the face of reality. It reminds us that no matter how sophisticated the technology, systemic risks cannot be fully countered.

For ordinary investors, here are a few points worth considering:

First, avoid over-concentration in a single asset or strategy. Stablecoins have indeed played a role in international trade, but when external pressures arise, their "stability" can be redefined. A moderate, diversified asset allocation is much more solid than seemingly smart all-in strategies.

Second, understand that holding and controlling are two different things. Owning the private keys to assets is just the first step; true security comes from long-term risk management and a clear understanding of one's own capabilities. Those attempting to "hide" assets through complex operations often end up harming themselves.

Finally, this incident reaffirms what I have always believed: a long-term mindset is more valuable than short-term gains. True wealth is not just the numbers on a ledger at a certain moment, but the ability to steadily and sustainably protect and grow your assets. No matter how the market fluctuates, doing your own homework is the best hedge.
