Thinking back, it still makes my heart race. The Luna crash was nothing short of an earthquake-level disaster in crypto history. That was a top-five project by market cap, worth tens of billions of dollars—on the same scale as today's SOL. And what happened? Once the infinite minting started, the price plummeted like falling off a cliff, going from over a hundred dollars straight to zero, with a string of zeros after the decimal point...



The craziest part is, despite such massive market swings, I only managed to catch just over $9,400. Every time I think about it, I feel it’s a missed opportunity—if I’d gone in more aggressively, my returns could have multiplied several times over. But on the other hand, managing to walk away with some profit during such an extreme event is lucky enough. After all, plenty of people got liquidated and lost everything.

That's how the market is—opportunity and risk always go hand in hand.
LUNA-2,49%
SOL-2,74%

Still crying in the early 9400s? Some people don't even have pants

ngl the luna collapse really exposed how fragile those algorithmic stablecoin mechanisms were... the tokenomics design had zero margin for error, game-theoretic nightmare tbh

Really, I also participated in that Luna wave, but not as lucky as you haha --- Just over $9400? Everyone made money, but I was directly trapped --- Who would have thought during the cliff dive, I just watched it go to zero --- That's the gambler's mentality; knowing the risk but going all in. Luna taught me that --- It's good enough to come out alive; so many people disappeared from the crypto circle after that --- Are there still people bullish on SOL now? Seriously? I'm afraid of such big projects --- On the day it went to zero, I immediately turned off my phone. I didn't want to look at my account --- Honestly, if it weren't for Luna, I might still be dreaming --- Opportunities and risks go hand in hand? Easy to say, but losing money is the real coexistence --- During that extreme market period, I didn't catch anything; it was all big V's harvest

Selling at $9,400? Bro, that's already a god-level move. How many people are still catching falling knives there?

The moment they enabled unlimited minting, I should have realized it was a Ponzi scheme. The on-chain data had already shown red flags.

You actually managed to perfectly catch the bottom at $9,400, man your luck is unbelievable. That Luna incident was insane, it went straight from the pedestal to hell—so many people had their dreams shattered. By the way, is anyone still speculating on what the next Luna will be? Why does it feel like every time I try to buy the dip, I end up catching it halfway up? I really envy your decisiveness. That unlimited minting move was wild, felt like an obvious rug pull by the insiders. If you got out safely and made a small profit, you’re already a winner this cycle—don’t underestimate that $9,400.
