Many people fall into a strange cycle: when BSC is hot, they stubbornly hold onto SOL; when SOL explodes, they turn around and hold BSC—this rhythm is reversed, and no matter how much they invest, it's hard to see returns. Today, I’ll break down the tricks behind BSC's bull market so you can avoid some detours.
Let's start with the three most painful truths: BSC's bull market has never been driven by retail investors. Don't fantasize that "retail holding together can trigger a market surge"—the reality is very harsh. First, major movements on BSC rarely happen through natural price increases; almost all are carefully orchestrated market behaviors. Second, no matter how many retail investors there are or how enthusiastic they are, they can't support system-level market trends. Third, only when a leading exchange decides to launch a new product will the major players holding chips truly start to manipulate the market.
Just look at BSC's performance this year. Those two obvious peaks were all in line with the platform's rhythm. In March, the platform was about to launch a new protocol, and to generate hype for this new ecosystem, they directly triggered the TST rally—essentially a disguised way to attract traffic. By October, the script was even more obvious: the platform pushed a wallet feature, creating another bull run, and even fabricated a "government account hacked" storyline. Honestly, the official accounts of top global exchanges are more secure than bank vaults. Being hacked? That probability is lower than winning the lottery. Essentially, this is just psychological suggestion to ignite the market.

It's the same old story, retail investors are just leeks. Wake up, everyone.

You speak so well. We retail investors are indeed like leeks; whenever the exchange launches a new feature, we get excited and shout out loud.

Haha, you're not wrong. Retail investors are really just getting trapped, still fantasizing about banding together to defy the odds.

A typical trap to fleece retail investors; they are always the last to take the fall. I've seen through this long ago.

It's the same story again; I've seen through it long ago. Retail investors are still sleepwalking, while the big players have already scripted the entire play. Wake up, everyone.

That's a bit too straightforward; I really like this kind of honest analysis. Retail investors really need to wake up and stop being the chives.

That's so heartbreaking. Always getting cut because of chasing highs and selling lows, always going against the rhythm.
