Community member nailed it:

Altcoins: Buy in → down 50% → check 6 months later → down another 50% 🥲

US stocks: Buy in → up 100% → check 6 months later → up another 100% 🤑

This is the reality check most degens need. While we're chasing 100x promises on low-cap tokens, TradFi is quietly compounding. The altcoin graveyard is real—most projects bleed out in bear markets and never recover.

Meanwhile, SPY and mega-cap tech just keep printing. Different game, different risk profile. Choose your battlefield wisely.
