Interesting observation: the post-00s generation's trust in Web3 wallets may surpass that of traditional banks. What does this reflect? The mindset of the new generation regarding digital asset management is quietly changing—they are more accustomed to self-management and self-control rather than relying entirely on centralized institutions. From private key ownership to asset autonomy, Web3 wallets provide this generation with things that the traditional financial system could not offer in the past. Of course, this also means that security education and risk awareness become even more critical. New financial concepts are taking shape.

Self-management sounds great, but I guess you'll be crying your eyes out the moment you lose your private key.

Private keys are more reassuring in hand than handing them over to a bank; anyway, banks are not exactly trustworthy. --- The post-00 generation really isn’t afraid of death. Do they have enough risk awareness to manage their assets? --- It sounds good, but it’s mainly because they simply don’t trust the traditional financial system anymore. --- Autonomy is indeed attractive, but I’m worried that a single mistake could wipe out all assets. --- This observation is a bit bleak; it seems the next generation of financial models is truly being rewritten. --- Wallet security awareness needs to keep up; otherwise, self-management could be even more dangerous. --- Web3 can give young people a sense of trust that traditional banks will never be able to restore.

Self-management sounds great, but when it comes to being phished and losing coins, it's too late to regret... This generation needs to be more cautious.

I actually think this isn't so absolute... There are still many post-00s who trust Web3 wallets, and quite a few who have lost everything by over-trading. Remembering now, managing private keys yourself sounds cool, but once lost, no one will recover them for you—that's the real risk. This generation is just too trusting of technology, and they haven't experienced a few crashes... When they really get burned, they'll realize the benefits of centralized institutions. On the other hand, it's mainly because traditional banks are too sluggish; if it weren't for that, Web3 wouldn't be so popular. Everyone understands the principle, but few can truly manage their assets safely; most people still keep their wallet seed phrases carelessly. Maybe that's an overinterpretation, but the actual proportion of people using Web3 is not that high... It's not about trusting wallets, just that I dislike banks more—choosing the lesser of two evils.

My private keys are in hand, I have the world; I'm already tired of the same old banking methods. --- Post-00s really aren't afraid of losing money, they're just worried about being cut by centralized entities. --- Self-management sounds great, but how can I ensure I won't stupidly lose my private keys... --- Honestly, it's still a trust crisis. Banks have been messing around too many times. --- The key is whether security education can keep up. Everyone around me is just going naked. --- This generation is rebellious; the more you tell them not to touch it, the more they want to play. --- It looks very free, but only if you truly understand the technology; otherwise, you'll get scammed just the same. --- Web3 wallets are more trustworthy than banks? I laughed. When it comes to cutting vegetables, you'll see who's more reliable. --- Having autonomy is great, but if something goes wrong, no one is responsible, which is really true. --- Changing financial concepts is fine, but can we avoid making risks so big?
