#2026年比特币行情展望 The last time I was summoned for a talk at the police station, I finally realized one thing: the crypto world has never been outside the law, but it’s definitely not a safe haven.
In the early morning, I received a call from a fan, his voice trembling—his account was frozen, supposedly due to involvement with fraudulent funds. "Am I going to jail?" he asked almost crying. I only replied, "Don’t panic, that doesn’t mean you’ve committed a crime."
Too many people are scared half to death by the stereotype that "virtual currency = illegal." What is the actual situation? The government hasn’t declared trading itself illegal, but their attitude is very clear—your assets are at your own risk, and if something goes wrong, no one will back you up. It’s like walking on a dark road—you can go, but if you fall, no one will help you up. Not being illegal doesn’t mean you don’t need to understand the rules of the game.
Later, the police asked him why he wanted to refund the money, suspecting his involvement in money laundering. I told him a key point: "Willing to negotiate a refund isn’t an admission of guilt." Many people don’t understand that the real purpose of refunding is to unfreeze the account and buy time. Sometimes, what you’re actually giving back isn’t just money, but a chance to turn passive into active. Those who don’t understand this are often defeated by their own emotions.
I’ve also heard people say they’re afraid of "leaving a criminal record if they don’t cooperate." Based on the many cases I’ve seen, honestly: as long as you can prove you’re not a suspect and cooperate with the police, they generally won’t leave a criminal record for you, and your accounts won’t be fully frozen. The real trouble is with Level 1 involved accounts—when the central bank issues a notice, all accounts instantly die, even savings cards can’t be used; but Level 2 accounts are much more lenient—once the suspicion is cleared, they can usually be unfrozen.
The essence of the crypto world is high risk. Many newcomers haven’t even learned how to read K-lines before they get a lesson in reality. Don’t naïvely think you’re completely safe just because you haven’t touched dirty money; fund flows are often second- or third-hand, and the source is often untraceable.
My advice is simple: never touch money whose source you don’t understand. First ask yourself a few questions about the suddenly skyrocketing profits. That little gain isn’t worth risking your safety; what you’re really lacking is a sense of security.
After so many years in this circle, I’ve seen people go from overnight riches to being taken away. Those who have made it this far are never the ones who earned the most, but those who stay sober, know how to avoid pitfalls, and can hold their bottom line.

Haha, this is what people in the crypto world should be saying, not those who blow hot air every day.

That's really impressive. I never thought the difference between a secondary card and a primary card before; turns out, the details are so crucial.

Really, it was at the moment of account freezing that I truly understood what a harsh reality hit feels like.
You need to think clearly about the source of your money, or else you might accidentally become the scapegoat.
Level 1 cards can kill you, my friend experienced it firsthand, and he couldn't even withdraw his salary.
Damn, I almost got scammed too before, but luckily I withdrew in time.
It's not that you can't get involved in the crypto world at all; the key is to have good judgment and not take everything in.
You must stick to your bottom line; making money is secondary.
In the past two years, I've seen too many people crash and burn, and it's really not worth it.

Honestly, this is what people in the crypto world should hear. Holding the bottom line is truly a thousand times more important than making quick money.

Really, I’ve heard of Level 1 Kanapo, and it’s completely dead now. Savings cards can’t even be swiped anymore. Unbelievable.

Really, the crypto world is like this—one moment you're careless, and you're dragged down by the funding chain, making it impossible to prevent.

It's clear that these are heartfelt words, but to be honest, the crypto world is like this—greedy people will never learn.

That hits too close to home. I'm the one who was scared half to death... My account is still frozen.

Ah, only when I was frozen and blocked did I realize that the crypto world is really like this.

I used to stumble around in darkness, but now I have a lamp in my hand. This lamp has been shining all along—are you coming with me or not?
