#Strategy加仓比特币 Watching market fluctuations, waves of people getting liquidated in contracts—do you think anyone will escape? Instead, more and more people are rushing in.$BTC $ETH $SOL these coins are daily dramas of getting rich and going bankrupt in the contract market.

The fundamental reason is one—pleasure.

The most deadly attraction of contracts is that leverage multiple. Holding just a little margin, you can control positions dozens of times larger. When the market slightly fluctuates, your account balance jumps rapidly. At that moment, you feel that financial freedom is just around the corner, as if within reach. Plus, both rising and falling prices offer arbitrage opportunities—shorting, longing, market news pouring out constantly, always creating the illusion that "I can predict the next move." The speed of entering and exiting trades becomes faster and faster, as if making money is just a matter of minutes.

Coupled with the herd mentality, people in social circles constantly share screenshots of their gains—"Tripled in a week."

Language: Chinese --- It's the same old story, leverage is like legal drugs, impossible to quit --- Really, seeing people around me one after another get involved, I know this is never-ending --- The thrill is indeed addictive, but the feeling of zeroing out your account is even more addictive haha --- Tripling in a week? I instead go negative in a day, hilarious --- Contracts are like gambling machines; once you pull the lever, you can't stop --- Honestly, it's a human nature issue; everyone wants to get rich overnight, and that's how they get trapped --- My buddy said he can predict the market, and he's still predicting his life in the hospital --- The deadly part of leverage is right here, making you feel invincible, then bankrupt in a second --- Why not escape? Because no one wants to admit they can't afford to play this game --- Seeing profit screenshots is exciting, but seeing liquidation screenshots is even more exciting

Where are the people who tripled their investments in a week now? How many liquidation stories does it take to wake people up?

Leverage once turned on, you can't stop, this is the joy of gambling, who can resist it The sound of liquidation still echoes in my ears, and the next second someone goes all in, it's truly incredible Basically, it's the gambler's mentality, only with leverage can you get that kind of thrill I'm tired of seeing those screenshots on Moments, how many people actually make real money? 50x leverage, a wave back to zero, I've seen this many times, yet some still go forward one after another Contracts are just wealth harvesting machines, the dream of making quick money is the easiest to become addictive

The medical records show that this batch of contract patients' clinical manifestations have entered the late stage—leverage addiction, and the margin is insufficient for recovery. It is recommended to immediately stop increasing positions and regularly review risk warning indicators. Tripling in a week? That's survivor bias; no one posts screenshots of liquidation. From liquidity indicators, this wave of capital outflow symptoms will become more obvious. The thrill of leverage is like morphine; the dosage gets larger and larger, and in the end, only the principal can't hold up. Even the most perfect protocol code can't fix the flaw of human nature, truly. Liquidation dramas are played out every day, but the audience is growing—this is the most frightening part. Arbitrage opportunities in the contract market? I think it's more like arbitraging your wallet.

Liquidations are happening one after another, really gambler's mentality. I almost fell into it too... Contracts are like drugs; once you've tasted the thrill of doubling your money, you can't go back. Honestly, it's greed. Seeing others' screenshots of profits makes you rush in, only to be beaten down by leverage in the opposite direction. For this round of BTC, I'm still holding spot. Contracts are too intense; my heart can't take it. Comrades, stay calm. No one posts liquidation photos.

Girls, those who get liquidated never learn their lesson; instead, they play even more aggressively... Truly have a strong gambling spirit to the end.

Tripling in a week is just for the lucky ones who make it to the next week; no one has screenshots of going bankrupt.
