On social media platforms, you must learn to think in reverse of those extremely bearish voices.

To put it simply, shouting for a rise is always easier to attract attention and traffic than criticizing a decline. And have you noticed—almost all influencers take sides, with interests behind them: exchange operators, VC investors, project founders, industry media, and even KOLs who rely on commissions and advertising fees for their livelihood. These people's positions are naturally biased towards optimism because they have either already made their moves or need market enthusiasm to survive.

So when you see overwhelming bearish tones, you need to ask yourself—are these genuine risk warnings, or some kind of topic manipulation? The truth of the market is often hidden in those less conspicuous, less traffic-driven, calm voices.

Reverse, reverse, reverse, and in the end, still get liquidated --- Being bullish or bearish is all business; just don't get caught up in the hype --- This logic can be flipped too; who says those who are bearish are necessarily sincere --- Calm voices? Sorry, I can't see them; it's all just calls to buy or sell --- I've seen through the big influencers taking sides long ago, but I'm even poorer --- Good point, but useless; I will still get liquidated

Thinking in reverse about this is correct, but I think the more important thing is—learning to recognize who is speaking. The skepticism from big influencers sometimes has more manipulation space than optimism because it makes them appear independent and clear-headed. That being said, the real signals are often hidden in on-chain data, not in those voices that create opposition. LP yields and actual liquidity depth are the true surfing points for riding the wave.

Actually, the bearish signals are the most valuable indicators. Everyone is bullish; there's always some vested interest involved. True contrarian moves depend on those cold, ignored voices. This stuff is more complicated than it seems. Behind the big influencers' endorsements, it's all about money. Wake up.

There is indeed some insight in the bearish arguments, but the key still depends on the fundamentals of the hash power network.

Reverse thinking is okay, but to be honest, information gaps are essentially wealth gaps. The problem is that most people can't tell who is telling the truth. Anyway, you still need to do your own homework and not just listen to rumors. I've been hearing this set of words for a year, but the key still depends on the market chart—no matter how many theories there are, nothing is more honest than candlestick charts. So, never fully trust anyone, including yourself. I think this is the real reverse thinking—even this article should be thought about in reverse. At the end of the day, it's a information war; whoever survives until the end is the real winner. This view is correct but not entirely; after all, some bearish signals are genuinely bearish.

Reverse thinking is correct, but to be honest, what I see are overwhelming bullish voices celebrating wildly. Everyone knows that big V influencers are just harvesting retail investors. The real opportunity is hidden in the corners that no one pays attention to, and I agree with that. But the key is, most people can't distinguish between genuine pessimism and fake pessimism, and in the end, they still get caught. The market never lacks voices; what it lacks is independent thinking. I've heard too much reverse thinking, and now I feel a bit numb. Basically, it's a game of information asymmetry—those with money and resources are always the winners. This kind of rhetoric is spoken every year, but the market is still so crazy. I think the biggest trap is overthinking in the opposite direction, and as a result, getting caught by the reverse.

Hmm... Think about it the other way around, even the naysayers are harvesting the little guys. Listening to big V influencers every day, after a while you almost believe it, and the conclusion is just one word—trap. The thing about big V influencers taking sides is too real; everyone has their own little motives behind it. Reverse, reverse, and reverse again, in the end, you still have to look at the charts yourself. I've heard this set of arguments a thousand times, but the key is still to see who is saying it.
