Recently, I stepped into a pit on BSC. First, I bought MO, then I found that there was also an OG version of MO being pumped, so I thought about getting some of both since I didn't know which one would rise. Then, a project called LUMO suddenly appeared, so I decided to participate in all three. Unexpectedly, an OG version of LUMO also emerged in the market, so I ended up holding all four.

What happened next? All four projects ended up with losses.

This reflects a phenomenon on BSC nowadays: projects with the same or similar names are everywhere, and investors can easily fall into a dilemma of choice amid information chaos. I initially wanted to diversify risk, but ended up attacking from all sides and didn't make any profit. Such situations are common on the chain, especially with popular tokens that easily spawn various derivative projects, which can mislead newcomers.

It seems that making decisions in this market requires more caution, rather than blindly going all-in on similar projects. Although the BSC ecosystem has many projects, their quality varies greatly, so it's important to do more research.

Haha, this is the legendary "all-in family bucket," but it all got wiped out. That's not right. The promised risk diversification, but this move actually concentrates risk. MO, OG-MO, LUMO, OG-LUMO, these combinations are really top-notch. It's better to pick one and study it thoroughly, do your homework well, and not follow the crowd blindly. Such things are indeed common; the chaos on BSC is very normal, and beginners are most likely to fall for it.

This is the cost of greed—wanting to have all four, but ending up with none.

This is a classic case of "Schrödinger's diversification risk," with all four ending up as casualties. Losing all four isn't better than focusing on one for profit; greed is the original sin. The pitfalls of projects with the same name are too deep, and beginners are really easy to get cut and doubt life. This lesson is worth a few thousand dollars in tuition fees. BSC is like this, a mix of the good and the bad. All in on four similar projects? That's not diversification of risk; that's spreading the money across different wallets.

This is a typical case of "greedy for more and swallowing an elephant," and in the end, not a single bite was taken. All four projects failed, which means risk management was completely mishandled. Honestly, it's still unclear which is the true mainline; blindly following trends and buying counterfeit versions requires mental preparation. The best part of the BSC ecosystem is that real projects didn't make profits, but instead were thoroughly eaten up by various clone coins.

This is a typical case of "the more choices, the more you lose." Losing all four is truly a bit hopeless. Don't ask me how I know... I've heard the stories of MO and LUMO many times—one is real, the other fake, and I still can't tell the difference. It's hilarious. Thinking about gambling luck without doing enough homework—BSC is just like that, with project teams constantly playing word games. Next time, focus on one project after thorough investigation; greed will only cause all four to blow up to zero.

All four projects are losing money? That's the price of greed. --- Diversifying risk has turned into diversifying IQ, that's true. --- The BSC ecosystem is just a big casino, and the project teams are thrilled. --- Bro, this move is just pure money giving to developers. --- MO and LUMO, I really can't tell which one is genuine and which one is a copycat. --- Honestly, I just pass on projects with similar names; it's too troublesome. --- This is what you call biting off more than you can chew. What a pity. --- There are more scammers on BSC than genuine projects; you need to be more cautious. --- Buying four projects is actually worse than holding cash; at least you don't lose money. --- Remember, I also fell into similar traps before; now I've learned to be smarter. --- The pattern of duplicate coins should have been dealt with by the authorities long ago.
