#数字资产市场动态 In the crypto world, most people lose money not because of a lack of information. On the contrary — the news, trending topics, and notifications you receive every day are basically "supplementary explanations" that come after the market has already reacted.
Simply put, there is a pattern: capital moves first, prices change accordingly, and then news comes out to explain. Many people naturally think that news drives the market, but in reality — the market drives the creation of news.
**Why are most news articles useless to you?**
First, the people who read the news are never the first to act. The actual capital and core participants capable of moving the market have already taken action before the news appears. The news is mainly aimed at those who cannot act in advance.
Second, the real function of news is "post-event explanation," not "early warning." When prices go up, the news tells you how reasonable the rise is; when prices fall, it explains why the fall was necessary. Its role is to "smooth things over" and "justify," not to guide you.
There is also a more painful phenomenon — hot news is essentially a "consensus amplifier." The judgments of a few people, fermented through news, turn into the collective sentiment of the majority. When you see "discussions across the entire network," it’s often the moment when risk is shifting.
The easier a news story is to understand, the greater the risk. Truly valuable information is usually dull, complex, and has a small dissemination surface. Headlines full of emotion and simple, crude conclusions are mostly just noise.
Therefore, the true utility of tools and information is not to help you accurately predict $ETH or $BTC 's price movements, but to help you judge: what "hand" of information you are receiving, and whether this information has been digested by the market. Being less influenced by "armchair quarterbacks" is much more cost-effective than desperately chasing to be "one step ahead."
