According to Gordon (@AltcoinGordon), many crypto investors are overly focused on finding 'the next 100x' investment opportunity, often ignoring more promising projects available now. Gordon argues that this tendency to gamble on new, unproven projects in hope of quick gains is a reason why many investors end up losing money. He emphasizes the lack of forward thinking in the cryptocurrency investment community, suggesting that investors should be more strategic in their approach. His comments highlight the importance of thorough analysis and due diligence in trading decisions.
