The stablecoin projects in the market really need to be awakened.

I previously stumbled in the minefield of altcoins, thinking it was a special case at the time. Only now do I realize that the stablecoin ecosystem is also beginning to repeat this story. There are projects that look like high returns everywhere, but how many can truly go far?

The wave of returns from the ASTA project gave me a taste of sweetness, and I started fantasizing that every similar project could turn the tide. In plain words, greed blinded me. Although the small loss wasn't significant in amount, the lesson learned was worth it—making me reevaluate what risk management really means.

I no longer chase those illusory point incentives. Instead of wandering through various yield traps, it's better to focus on relatively stable directions. The current strategy is simple and straightforward: carefully select top ecosystems, cautiously evaluate each new project, and don't relax your vigilance just for high yields.

Greed really can make people lose their minds. Watching others make a killing with ASTA makes you want to copy, but it’s all traps. This wave of stablecoin scams is more elaborate than altcoins, with all kinds of point incentives just a cover. Only after losing out do you realize that not everything that looks stable is truly safe. Risks are always hidden behind high returns. Now, stick to the top projects and stay calm for three days before considering any new, tempting projects.

Greed really can be deadly. Once you taste the sweetness of ASTA, you want it every time. In the end, you lose your wife and your soldiers. Another round of high-yield harvesting. I see through this, not getting on this wave. There are a bunch of stablecoin projects, but only a few are reliable. The rest are all traps. Honestly, it's time to stay calm. You can't treat every project as a treasure; you need to learn to say no. Human greed, huh? Making money once makes you want to do it again. No wonder you get beaten up. Point incentives? Forget it. I've become immune to this kind of scam. Risk management really needs to be prioritized, or you'll be finished sooner or later.

Greed can indeed ruin people, I also got a bit caught up in the ASTA wave, and ended up thinking about copying, haha. The stablecoin space is currently very muddy, high yields are all just a facade. The key ecosystems are the only way out; everything else requires strict evaluation.

It hurts every time. I always think I've learned to be smart, but I still get blinded by the returns. Greed is truly a common flaw among crypto enthusiasts, and I’m the same. That wave of ASTA was so satisfying. Now I want to gamble on everything I see. Luckily, I didn't put all my assets into it.

Greed is indeed the root of all evil, especially in this circle. After making a profit from ASTA, they became self-absorbed, and the result was a live demonstration of it. Really, the more tempting the returns look, the deeper the trap often is. I'm the same now, preferring to earn less and sleep peacefully. The point system incentives should have been abandoned long ago; they are like illusions. It's still better to focus on top projects and not be brainwashed by false promises. Well said, the stablecoin sector is now a mess, and it's really time to wake up. Losses are actually the cheapest tuition. Compared to those who are always greedy, your awareness is quite fast.
