Fake information is everywhere. How can you tell the difference to make money?

Abstract generation in progress

【Crypto World】On January 18th, the founder of a leading exchange shared an interesting perspective on social media. He first clarified rumors about himself and a certain actress, stating outright that he has never met her and rarely participates in social events. Then he shifted the topic and posed a more thought-provoking question — in an age of information explosion, distinguishing between true and false news is becoming increasingly difficult. However, this founder seems to believe that if you can develop the skill of “separating falsehood from truth,” you will ultimately gain an advantage in wealth accumulation. This viewpoint sparked quite a bit of discussion, with many participants in the crypto community agreeing that in a market flooded with various messages and rumors, the ability to discern information is indeed a scarce competitive edge.

Information discernment ability? Basically, it’s about having sharp eyes—seeing through who’s bluffing at a glance. --- Haha, it’s the same old story. The secret to wealth lies in information gaps, but how many actually profit from it? --- Rumors are flying everywhere. Whether they’re true or false is hard to tell. Instead of wasting effort on verification, it’s better to go with the flow. --- Separating truth from falsehood sounds easy in theory, but in practice, it still depends on luck. --- So here’s the question: how can we be sure that what we’re hearing now is the truth? --- That’s how it is in the crypto world—information is a weapon. Being even a second late to grasp it means losing out. --- It’s not wrong to say that, but few people can actually do it. Most end up getting cut.

Is information discernment a scarce competitive advantage? I think, 99% of people can't tell real from fake at all, and they're just being taken for a ride. --- Clarifying rumors is just a routine, and then they start selling anxiety... That's pretty interesting. --- Listening to the idea of separating false from true sounds lofty, but isn't it really just about luck and connections? --- Only the wealthy can access real information; information at the lower levels is always lagging behind. That's the harsh reality. --- No matter how eloquently it's said, in the end, those who are well-informed make money, and we, the retail investors, still get cut. --- I just want to ask, how can we know in advance like they do? --- So having strong information discernment skills equals being able to make money? Then why are so many smart people losing money? --- Chasing hot topics and gossip every day is not as good as focusing on doing your homework, but who really does that? --- Don't listen to their hype; 90% of the market is noise. Those with real information have already made a fortune.

In terms of information discernment ability, it's basically like auditing smart contracts—reading through the source code line by line. Most people can't even see the basic logic clearly, and they still want to make money based on "intuition"? Ha.

Identifying information is easier said than done; half the people are just making up stories... --- Another round of debunking and rambling. The key question is, how do we make money, everyone? --- Separating truth from falsehood? Ha, I just want to know who has actually done it. --- This theory sounds good, but it also feels like nonsense. Who doesn't want to distinguish between real and fake? The problem is, there's simply no time. --- After competing and exhausting ourselves, we realize everything we believed was false—a painful lesson. --- I think the scarce competitive advantage is a scarce brain. The market information is already chaotic enough. --- The founder speaks beautifully, claiming to have insider information advantages, yet still teaching us how to tell real from fake. --- Instead of worrying about what's true or false, it's better to learn to follow the trend. Market movements tell us more than news.
