This space is wild. Bull run hits, everyone's DMing you about their 100x plays, acting like day-one friends. You share the wins, celebrate together, show kindness when they need it.

Then the market flips. You hit rock bottom, struggling through the worst stretch of your trading life. Suddenly? Radio silence. Those same people who couldn't stop messaging during the pump—vanished.

Guess friendships here have an expiration date tied to your portfolio performance.

This is the crypto world — you know the ups and downs of human relationships in a second.

Really, during a bull market, it's all brothers on the screen; during a bear market, they become strangers.

nah this is just survivorship bias mixed with poor risk-adjusted metrics on social capital tbh. if you look at the data, most of these "friendships" had a correlation coefficient of like 0.1 with actual friendship—they were just yield farming dopamine during the pump. technically speaking, you were never friends, just two degens in the same liquidity pool lol

In a bear market, you see real people; in a bull market, everyone is an actor

People in the crypto world, that's how it is—when making money, they're brothers; when losing money, they're strangers.

nah this is just basic correlation analysis honestly—fair weather friends have a statistically significant 0% resilience coefficient when your bags are down. empirically speaking, you've just identified who's actually in your network versus who's parasitically attached to your gains. theoretically, this filters out the noise, which is... optimal scenario if you think about it coldly
