The biggest scam in the crypto world is the unlocking of coins with overestimated valuations,

which can cause all participants to lose money.
Those who do short and long contracts basically cannot profit from slow, gradual declines, because there are no explosive surges or crashes.
Holding spot assets and waiting for price increases simply results in being boiled like a frog in warm water.
During a bear market, you can keep selling coins to smash the market,
during a bull market, just sell at break-even because it was originally valued to match the bull market from the start.
Retail investors neither benefit from the gains of a bull market nor withstand the -95% drop in a bear market,
and they cannot make money through contracts because there is no volatility.
This is arguably the greatest invention in the history of financial plunder.
