Crypto daily information explosion, but 99% are just noise. How to find the real stuff among it? My approach is to focus on three key types of information sources.
First, look at the project's official channels—the official website and GitHub code update frequency can indicate whether there is genuine progress. Next, check announcements from mainstream exchanges, which help you grasp the industry pulse. Lastly, on-chain data platforms allow you to track fund flows directly.
But more importantly, learn to identify traps. Be especially cautious of two types of information: one is "risk-free profit" insider tips, which are often pyramid schemes designed to recruit more people—avoid them. The other is blindly following certain KOLs' calls—especially when market sentiment is overheated, staying clear-headed and rational is truly a luxury.
I always believe in the value of DYOR (Do Your Own Research). Checking whitepapers, reviewing team backgrounds, and observing code update frequency—these tasks may be dull, but they help you determine whether a project is making real progress or just hot air. Relying on secondhand interpretations is unreliable; only verified information counts.
Enhancing your ability to discern information enables you to maintain independent judgment amid noise. Market opportunities are always there, but your capital and energy can't afford to be wasted.

99% interference information, that's a bit harsh, feels more like 150%
GitHub update frequency is a brilliant move, more effective than listening to ten influencers boast
But speaking of which, I’ve only seen fewer than two hands worth of people who actually go and dig through the code and on-chain data
I have deep experience with KOL calls; only after losing money do you realize what textbook-level leek-cutting really means

Well said, but too many people are too lazy to do their homework. They just follow a KOL's signals and go all-in, then blame the market for being unfair.
I have deep experience with GitHub. If a project hasn't been updated at all and is still bragging, then it's just hot air.

That's right, I've also been using the GitHub commit frequency trick, and it's much more effective than listening to ten influencers brag.

That's true, but do you know? 99% of people who see this will still get cut. The key is self-discipline.

Wow, this explanation sounds a bit familiar to me... I've already played around with DYOR before. I was really fooled once by the commit frequency on GitHub; the team was completely inactive, but the commit records were surprisingly frequent haha

That's right, the update frequency on GitHub is fantastic. It instantly reveals those air projects that only hype concepts.
