SHIB executive reveals harsh realities of crypto “Wild West”
Earlier this week, the official marketing expert of the SHIB team famous under the pseudonym Lucie published a tweet to share some important information with the community. It was sort of a warning against the traps of building and investing in the cryptocurrency market.
Lucie warned that the market is “lawless, unpredictable, and full of both opportunity and danger” and only the sharpest can survive in it.
Per Lucie’s tweet, the main underwater rocks here are unpredictability, volatility, and “the hype game”. However, the necessary qualities to survive are self-reliance and vigilance. Having a sharp mind, using observation, and having a good strategy is crucial. “Knowledge is your best defense,” she stated. It does not matter much if you are a SHIB holder or support any other cryptocurrencies: “The rules are the same: Play smart, stay sharp, and never bet more than u can afford to lose,” Lucie concluded her message to the community.
