Gave a bunch of investment advice on Crypto Assets, speaking with conviction, then casually added "Actually, I'm not too sure either"—a perfect risk avoidance tactic. This way, one can show they know the industry while also being able to back out if things go wrong. This is just a common rhetoric among people in the crypto world.

Haha, I've seen this trick too many times. It sounds so serious, then they just turn around and say "not sure."

I've seen this trap too many times, it's just a standard operation to want to occupy two positions at the same time and shift the blame afterwards.

The on-chain data is right here, and after saying something amazing, you turn around and say "uncertain"? Heh, I've seen this kind of manipulation many times.

Haha, the rhetoric in the crypto world is truly amazing, both safe and seemingly humble. --- First, they paint a rosy picture, then they shift the blame. I've seen this operation too many times. --- To put it bluntly, it's about wanting both ways, and if something goes wrong, they'll just say "I already said it was uncertain." --- Honestly, people like this are the most annoying, pretending to have insider secrets about the market. --- Avoiding risk so obviously is also a skill. --- It’s always like this, first pretending to be an expert, then pretending to be a newbie; it’s a must-learn lesson for people in the crypto world. --- I just want to ask why they can't just say they don't know, and have to go around in circles. --- If you learn this trick, you can survive a long time; after all, if you make money, you boast, and if you lose, you back off. --- Is it true or false? You still have to do your own research, don't buy into this rhetoric.

Haha, dying of laughter, I said this trap is too familiar, first crazy hype and then say "for reference only" ---- DYOR everyone, listening to their set-up is just a giveaway ---- I've heard this line a hundred times, and then they specifically add "maybe I misunderstood", it's really the worst ---- These people in the crypto world, they talk as if it's real, and then they just run away ---- I've seen through the perfect method of avoiding responsibility ---- First they pump you up and then say something uncertain, this operation is indeed "smart" ---- It's like they want to show professionalism but don't want to take the blame, I see through it ---- They talk earnestly and then say "actually I don't understand either", it's just the worst

Haha, this move is awesome, it can be both a master and a scapegoat, truly a universal skill tree in the crypto world.
