Recently, the crypto world has exploded — "A certain leading platform's ecosystem coin is expected to reach $10,000 in the future," this bold prediction is spreading wildly in the community. If it really comes true, it means that the market capitalization will break the trillion-dollar barrier, directly entering the club of the world's top assets. Supporters' logic sounds very convincing: the crypto market itself has unlimited growth potential, ecological construction is accelerating, and the Platform Token has long surpassed being just a tool for transaction fees.



But look at what the real data says. Currently, there are only about ten companies in the world with a market capitalization of over one trillion dollars. Meta's annual profit is 70 billion dollars, and Berkshire, under Buffett, earns more than 40 billion dollars each year—then look at the annual profit of a certain leading platform, which is only in the tens of billions range. Comparing profitability and user scale, the trillion-dollar market capitalization figure is still far away from now.

However, if the overall scale of the crypto market rises tenfold, and if these ecosystems truly build into a "financial operating system," then this seemingly crazy prediction won't be a pipe dream during a future bull market cycle.

There is a deeper question that needs to be clarified behind this: when we pursue high growth and high volatility assets, how should we balance the "growth imagination" and "real risk"? When everyone in the crypto world is calculating whether BNB can increase a hundredfold, has anyone considered - if all your money is staked on one ecosystem, one narrative, what will happen to your liquidity and purchasing power if an industry black swan event occurs, the ecosystem growth does not meet expectations, or the bull market cycle is delayed?

This is why smart investors always pair high-volatility assets with some stable assets for insurance. It's not that they look down on growth, but rather that they have learned how to live longer.

They are starting to hype about 10,000 times again, everyone really just wants to get rich overnight. --- To put it bluntly, it's just a gambling mentality, what can happen if you go all in on a coin? --- Meta made 70 billion in profits in a year, compared to that, some platform is indeed far behind, the data is right here. --- In a bull run, the imagination is limitless; in a bear market, it reverts to its original state. After playing this trick for a few years, there are still people getting hooked. --- What if it really becomes a financial operating system? That would indeed be valuable, but the key is what if? What about the risks? --- I just want to ask, how are the guys who went all in doing now? --- It seems very rational, but how many in the circle really have a diversified allocation? They are all dreaming of a hundred times return. --- Instead of calculating whether it can reach 10,000, why not first think about whether it can survive the next black swan? --- Smart people have long understood that no matter how strong the ecosystem is, one must keep some stable assets; otherwise, a wave could take everything away. --- The story of ecosystem coins is always told this way, the problem is that after telling it so many times, it's still the same group of people losing money.

Ten thousand dollars? Are you dreaming? Those who go All in on Platform Tokens now are all in a gambler's mindset; I've seen too many like this. --- Well said, finally someone dares to speak the truth, putting all your assets into one ecosystem is not investing, it's gambling. --- Trillion market capitalization? Let's first get the current profits up and talk, can you eat just by narratives? --- Got it, it's just not to be greedy; allocating some stable assets is the way to live longer. --- Those who calculate BNB by hundreds haven't even thought about how long they can survive, laughable. --- The key is, how many people can really allocate? They all think about going All in for a turnaround. --- This logic makes sense, but in the crypto world, not many want to live long; they all want to get in and out quickly. --- It sounds reasonable, but when the next bull run comes, all these words will be forgotten, haha.

Here comes this trap of ten thousand times again. I really advise you not to all in on one coin, or when the black swan comes, you won't even have a place to cry.
