Recently, the altcoin (alpha and contract) market has been performing really well. New heroes are emerging one after another, like BEAT, VELVET, COLLECT, JCT, and more. Up until today, our research and strategies on altcoins have yielded significant results. Here are the key insights we've learned: 1. Altcoin market makers have a huge advantage, so in the long run, it’s not about chasing big wins in one go, but about keeping losses predictable and manageable. 2. No indicator is the most “accurate” or the most “profitable.” Instead, it’s about what costs the market makers the most to fake. Market makers are here to make money, so there’s no need for them to incur unnecessary costs. That’s where our strategies find opportunities. 3. The market makers’ manipulation tactics, from a macro perspective, can be exhaustively listed and measured statistically. Of course, when it comes to small tricks, they can be very creative—like H’s OTC news outside the market or BEAT’s method of splitting addresses for distribution. 4. Therefore, we need to focus on the big picture and let go of the small stuff. Focus on the core logic of altcoins: token distribution structure and key technical indicators. Everything else is just noise, distracting you from your strategy. 5. All of the above issues can be solved with in-depth AI research combined with a bit of practical knowledge about token operations. Anyone who blindly labels altcoin contract trading as a “scam” is either lacking in ability or just too lazy. The deeper the bear market, the more we need to dive into research.
