#比特币流动性 Why do so many people criticize contracts as "meat grinders," yet still continue to play?
It's not that everyone doesn't understand the risks.
It's just that the temptation is simply too attractive—blunt and straightforward.
Imagine this: working hard for an entire month, you might only earn around ten thousand yuan. But with the same principal, if you trade a few rounds in the contract market, the fluctuations in your account balance could exceed your monthly income. Who can resist that feeling?
The crypto market is inherently volatile. When extreme conditions occur, prices can swing several points back and forth within minutes, just like playing a game. The most addictive part of contracts is precisely that—leveraging to amplify gains and the thrill of rapid profit.
The same Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies can fluctuate, and while spot accounts might only tremble slightly, contract accounts can see their numbers jump to another level entirely. The difference is so obvious.
Therefore, traders fall into two categories: one treats it as a tool, cautiously testing small positions; the other treats it as a gamble to turn their fortunes around, dreaming of a reversal that changes their life.
The contract itself is a neutral tool; the real danger comes from the user's mindset.
If you can strictly control your position size and set stop-loss and take-profit points in advance, it’s actually a very sharp tool. The problem is—once you fall into the gambler's mindset of "just one more time, I can turn it around," the market will ultimately take back your principal and profits.
Why are there always people playing with contracts? Honestly, because the dream of "getting rich quickly" is really that close.
The most powerful weapon retail investors have is actually very simple: patience, endurance, and precise execution.

Basically, it's human nature. Who doesn't want to turn things around in one move? Contracts are essentially tailored for gamblers' mentality.

Honestly, it's just human weakness. Ten thousand yuan a month, the contract can double in just a few minutes, who can resist that?

That's so true. Once a gambler's mentality takes over, there's no saving it. The market will consume you completely.
