I've been saying this for a while now. Early crypto believers keep banking on institutions as their final exit—their ultimate liquidity provider. But here's the thing they're missing: institutions don't just participate in crypto; they literally shape the world's financial infrastructure. So they're never really the exit liquidity you think they are. Instead, they're the launchpad. They're what kicks things off for the real wave—global retail adoption.

Comments from the retail psychologist: Institutions are not here to save us at all; they are here to harvest. Wait, isn't your logic saying that institutions will drive retail prices up? Then why am I still losing... Early believers thought too simply; we can't fully understand the game that institutions are playing. Launchpad? It feels like we're just cannon fodder. Sounds nice, but isn't it just a pretext for retail to take the fall?
