Data from a leading prediction trading platform reveals an interesting phenomenon: among retail traders, approximately 70% ultimately incur losses, while only 30% achieve profits. Even more noteworthy is the extreme disparity in profit distribution—total realized profits reach as high as $3.7 billion, but this money is essentially divided among less than 0.04% of top traders, who monopolize over 70% of the total profits. What does this imply? The seemingly open profit opportunities in the crypto trading market are actually highly concentrated in the hands of a few players. Most participants in this ecosystem are essentially contributing chips for the benefit of a small elite.

Bro, your data is heartbreaking, a 70% loss... I always felt like I was being cut off.
I think it should have been like this a long time ago; retail investors are just here to give away money.
0.04% of people take 70% of the profits? That's ridiculous, like the 80/20 rule, now it's a reality.
To be honest, most people don't have that kind of brainpower or information advantage; coming in just for the thrill.
Don't blame the platform, blame yourself for lacking the means, this is the market.
Damn, 3.7 billion in the hands of that 0.04%, how ruthless is that...
Instead of struggling, it's better to hold long-term honestly; don't expect to get rich quickly.
This is a casino mentality; there will always be winners and losers, and the losers are always the most.

A 70% loss rate is outrageous. We retail investors are really just working for the whales.
