Narratives are everywhere in crypto—slick talking points, compelling stories, carefully crafted messaging. They sound good. They feel right. But here's the thing: feeling convinced doesn't mean you're actually informed.

Rhetorical flourishes and well-packaged narratives are tools. Powerful ones. They can move markets, shape opinions, and influence decisions. But they're not facts.

What matters? Verifiable evidence. On-chain data. Transaction records. Audited numbers. The stuff that can be checked, verified, and proven.

Don't get swept up in the narrative. Ask for the receipts. Look at the data. Make decisions based on what you can actually verify, not what sounds the most convincing. That's how you survive in this space.

There's nothing wrong with what you said, but the reality is that nine out of ten people are still being killed by stories.

Well said, so many people have been killed by stories in crypto without even realizing it.

Exactly right, so many people go all-in after hearing a few sweet words, only to be wiped out completely. On-chain data is the truth; everything else is nonsense.
