There is a phenomenon worth reflecting on: in the cryptocurrency community, a set of value systems has gradually taken shape—money supremacy is gaining dominance.

"Who has money, who is powerful," this logic is being adopted by more and more people as a guiding principle for action. But what is even more worth warning against is the community's attitude towards integrity and morality. When someone encounters scams in Web3, most voices do not condemn the scammers' evil, but instead blame the victims' "stupidity." Turn around, and the scammer successfully cashes out; the public opinion instantly flips—"This guy has skills" or "He really knows how to make money," and the halo of cleverness and ability is thus placed on them.

This kind of right and wrong reversal ultimately reflects a crisis of trust within the ecosystem. When a community begins to bow to money and turn a blind eye to integrity, it will only attract more profit-seekers. In the long run, such a soil will only make the entire circle more and more polluted.

Uh... you're so right, our circle is indeed sick --- Scammers turn the tables and sing songs of enslaving peasants, while victims are mocked for their IQ. This logic is truly impeccable --- The money-first approach will eventually ruin the entire ecosystem --- So now, is it more valuable to have integrity or to cash out? The question hits hard --- That's why I increasingly don't want to be involved anymore, it makes me feel uncomfortable just looking at it --- Being able to cash out means having skill, this statement makes me frown --- In plain terms, it's the devaluation of good currency by bad currency. Are there any clear-headed people in the circle? --- Victims are called stupid, scammers become heroes. I really can't stand this reversal --- When will the moral bottom line ever come back? --- More and more people believe "making money is winning," so what are we still talking about Web3 dreams for?

Wake up, everyone. Our circle has long been rotten through. Money is the truth, and scammers have instead become heroes. How twisted is that? To put it bluntly, this is now a paradise for scammers. Instead of complaining, it's better to get out early and not wait around to be harvested like a leek by others. This thing's credit has gone bankrupt, and there's no saving it.

Wake up everyone, our circle is now just a big cesspool. Oh wait, this is what Web3 should look like... who the TM cares about morality? Well said, but the problem is no one listens. Money above all, this game is basically the jungle law with a different mask. When scammers succeed, they shout "they have skills," this logic is really incredible. Wait, according to this logic, is integrity even valuable in this circle? It's human nature, don't be too idealistic.

Ha, isn't this just a reflection of today's Web3? I'm already tired of it. Exactly, scammers are now heroes, and those who get scammed are mocked. This logic is unbelievable. This circle is just ridiculous, moral bottom lines are repeatedly broken, and in the end, it's all scammers and gamblers left. Money can solve problems that are problems; everything else has to step aside, truly. If your credit is bankrupt, you still want to go far? Dream on. Human greed is infinitely amplified here. To put it simply, it's a process of bad money driving out good money. This "having means makes you the boss" aesthetic is truly top-notch. The entire ecosystem is already critically ill.

At the end of the day, it's still a trust bankruptcy. This circle has long been compromised. Scammers have instead become heroes. That logic is truly brilliant. Alright, now just wait to see whose methods are more ruthless. Web3 has turned into a fame and fortune arena. What should it have been originally? In this environment, still hoping to make money through integrity? You're just pure foolishness.
