#ETH走势分析 It's embarrassing to say, I almost took a $20,000 fall in the crypto world.
It wasn't stolen by hackers, nor was it a contract liquidation—rather, it was watching the coins in the wallet turn into worthless paper. Later, upon review, I found out that I had fallen into two pitfalls that most people would encounter: holding on to unwanted "zombie coins" or dealing with those "money printer-style inflation coins."
Today I'll expose the tricks of these two coins for you, and if you can avoid one, do it.
**The First Trap: The Zombie Coin That Plays Dead**
This coin has several obvious characteristics, but many people just can't see them:
The code repository is like a grave - the last commit on GitHub may have been two years ago, and the technology has long been left behind by the times.
The community is terrifyingly silent—no one has spoken in the TG group for a week, and the Twitter account is still desperately riding the trends, shouting about the AI revolution today and the metaverse tomorrow, but the project itself? It hasn't moved at all;
Kicked out of the exchange at any time – I fell victim to this last year when a certain altcoin was suddenly delisted. The exchange issued a notice, and on the same day it went to zero, not even giving you a chance to cut your losses and escape.
The final outcome of this coin is to become a digital tombstone in your wallet. The team has long since fled, and the price is gradually dripping down. Are you staring at the K-line hoping for a turnaround? Wake up, that's waiting for a miracle.
**The second pitfall: perpetual printing machine inflation coin**
This type of project treats tokens as their own ATM:
Token unlock date = team cash-out date, once the time comes, they will crazily dump the market; Early VCs take the money and run, leaving retail investors standing on the mountain top blowing in the cold wind. The inflation rate is harsher than fiat currency – holding onto it for a year is equivalent to having your assets diluted for a year.
I have seen too many examples like this, where certain coins drop from double-digit dollars to a few cents, with a decline starting at 99%. Each unlocking is a harvest day, and retail investors think they are bottom-fishing, but in fact, they are just giving money to the big players.
**My sincere words**
Don't be fooled by the two words "cheap" - what falls down is not a pie, but a trap; Don't believe in any "sentimental return" - 99% of the outdated projects will not revive, they will only get worse; Stay away from inflation coins - that's a slow blood loss; the longer you hold, the worse the death.

Damn, twenty thousand bucks, that really hurts... I'm just afraid I also have some undiscovered zombie tokens sitting in my wallet.

Really, I have seen that trap with zombie coins too many times. Every time I want to buy the dip, it just ends up being a loss.

Twenty thousand dollars? Why do we always love to give money to the market maker...

Holding zombie coins is really amazing, there are a bunch of digital memorials lying in the wallet.

A tuition fee of twenty thousand dollars is not cheap, but it is indeed a mandatory course in the crypto world.

Wow, twenty thousand dollars, that must hurt so much, but I have indeed stepped into these two pits as well.
