Still staring at those 1-minute candles? Here's the thing nobody wants to hear: in this market cycle, you're way more likely to catch a 10x from a 500k market cap project than chasing that same multiple on a 10k micro-cap. The risk-reward math just doesn't add up the way it used to. Bigger caps = more liquidity, less rug risk, actual volume. Sure, the percentage gains sound sexier on paper with smaller caps, but survival rate tells a different story. Maybe it's time to recalibrate where you're hunting for that next play.

To be honest, this theory sounds pretty nice, but I still prefer to take a shot at the small market capitalization wave; after all, if I lose, it's just this much.

Ha, that really hits hard, I have to admit. The small market capitalization strategy is indeed a gambler's mentality, is a 500,000 market capitalization more reliable? I need to think about this logic. That's right, liquidity is king, don’t just chase the price every day. You still have to find projects with Trading Volume, otherwise, no matter how high it is, you can't sell. This is the hard truth, no wonder I always lose money.

It sounds reasonable, but I still think a 500k market cap can easily be subject to dumping. --- To put it bluntly, if the risk is small, the returns will be just so-so. --- This theory might be useful for newbies, but veteran players have been doing this for a long time. --- The problem is that a 500k project might not even survive to the next cycle, and that’s the real risk. --- I do want to chase smaller caps, but it really requires some luck. --- What you said is true, but executing it still depends on vision and luck, which can’t be avoided. --- Liquidity is indeed a big deal; being locked in feels truly desperate. --- A 500k market cap can still fall like a dog, so don’t make medium risk sound like no risk.

Wow, finally someone said it, the small market capitalization trap is already a classic case of survivor bias.

It's quite heartbreaking to say, the percentage of small coins is indeed tempting, but nine out of ten times you end up being played for suckers... It's still better to focus on mid-cap coins for more stability.

Damn, that really hits hard... I used to focus on those coins worth a few hundred or eight hundred every day, and what happened? They're all gone, haha. I only understood after being played for suckers too many times that liquidity is the real deal.
