The 2025 crypto market has been full of turbulence, with major events occurring one after another.

Meme coin scams have been frequent, with a concept coin project related to the Argentine president once raising over $100 million in a short period, reflecting retail investors' risk exposure in hot trends. Security risks are also concerning—Infini employees committed internal theft, resulting in nearly $50 million stolen, directly exposing management vulnerabilities of centralized exchanges.

Oracles are not immune to security issues either. In the Polymarket oracle attack, large investors manipulated outcomes to influence prediction market prices, revealing governance flaws in decentralized oracles. Similar risks include Sui's proactive "freezing" of hacker funds, which, although intended to stop losses, sparked in-depth discussions about the centralization level of blockchain.

On the project level, surprises keep coming. The "fake death controversy" of Zerebro co-founder Jeffy once triggered market panic; the misappropriation of TUSD funds involved Sun哥's rights protection; Conflux's listing dream was shattered; Jia Yueting also entered the crypto space across industries. Behind these events are issues of personal integrity and the risks accumulated during the industry's rapid expansion.

Volatility in stablecoins like USDX has further increased market instability. Overall, the market in 2025 swings between high growth and high risk, demanding higher standards for due diligence and risk awareness from investors.

One hundred million dollars can be taken away just like that. This harvesting machine for retail investors is getting more and more ruthless. I just want to see who still dares to chase the hot trends. The Infini insider incident, the trivial matters of centralized exchanges—it's really the fortress that is most likely to collapse from within. Oracles being manipulated? Isn't this just a capital game? A new trick for big players to cut retail investors. Sui freezing funds—this sneaky move, I’m really puzzled. Is this even blockchain? Satoshi Nakamoto would probably be spitting blood if he saw this alive. Even Jia Yueting has entered the crypto world, with all kinds of ambitious players gathering. It’s no wonder the industry is in chaos. Stablecoins are also starting to dance. Where is the promised stability? The death spiral is right in front of us. In 2025, instead of due diligence, it’s better to learn how to recognize people. The project team’s quality is probably the biggest risk. A group of people shout about national rejuvenation, then turn around and run a Ponzi scheme. The crypto world is still the same old trick.

Laughing to death, it's both a scam and theft, this is how the crypto world is The wave of Sui frozen funds was really outrageous, where is the promised decentralization Retail investors are still chasing Argentine coins, I just can't understand These days, running an exchange is more profitable than hacking That manipulation on Polymarket was simply incredible, even the oracle can't be trusted Jeffy faking death, Jia Yueting entering the scene, what else have I not seen? When TUSD has issues, the entire stablecoin market trembles, it's a complete domino effect Does anyone dare to touch these stablecoins? I really don't dare The panic sell-off in Zerebro almost made me buy the dip, luckily I didn't act Risk accumulation happens like this, gotta do proper research

Really, after seeing so many scams, I finally understand that those chasing hot topics deserve to be harvested. Our exchange's operations are truly exceptional; internal employees are more dangerous than hackers. Regarding Sui's frozen funds, it's said to be decentralized, but it still has to speak with authority. Fake deaths, embezzlement, fleeing... this incident is truly a major crash site. Can stablecoins also crash? Then what's the point of stability? A hundred million dollars in Meme coins just disappeared like that, retail investors are dancing in the casino. Oracle attacks sound ridiculous, but some people can still manipulate the results. Jia Yueting has entered the crypto world; this industry really has no bottom line. High growth must come with high risk; how can you make big money without losses? This year's chaos is much worse than last year's.

Another year of the leek-cutting competition, I’ve seen through it all Retail investors really need to learn from their mistakes; chasing hot topics is just giving scammers money Centralized exchanges are so poorly managed, I still prefer cold wallets for peace of mind About Sui freezing funds, why are so many people still trusting its decentralization? Jeffy’s fake death stunt was truly top-notch, more professional than actors, pity those who got scammed Everyone knows the governance flaws of oracles, but no one is fixing them, it’s quite surreal Speaking of, did Jia Yueting come to the crypto world? Now anything really can happen The chaotic fluctuations of stablecoins, if you ask me, it’s just a joke To the brothers still chasing Meme coins, I advise you to take it easy Having gone through so many cycles like this, I’ve become immune
