Peter Brandt Warns of Crypto Risks: Embrace Caution or Face Devastating Losses

彼得·勃兰特 (Peter Brandt) 警告加密货币风险：谨慎行事，否则将面临毁灭性损失

Veteran financial trader, Peter Brandt, has cautioned cryptocurrency enthusiasts, particularly those investing in meme coins, about the escalating perils associated with speculative crypto-assets.

资深金融交易员彼得·勃兰特 (Peter Brandt) 警告加密货币爱好者，尤其是那些投资模因币的人，与投机性加密资产相关的风险不断升级。

Brandt highlights the remarkable growth of Bitcoin from $0.07 in 2010 to its current value, but he emphasizes that such rapid increases are unlikely to continue in the future. He observes that young investors, including millennials and Gen Z, are banking on similar gains from "trash coins."

Brandt 强调了比特币从 2010 年的 0.07 美元到目前价值的显着增长，但他强调这种快速增长在未来不太可能持续下去。他观察到，包括千禧一代和 Z 世代在内的年轻投资者都指望从“垃圾币”中获得类似的收益。

"I witness markets for 50 years, some will do great from here forward, but too many fools will get too leveraged, miss the top and get blown out in the next 50% correction in BTC, 90% correction in altcoins, 100% correction in memes." https://t.co/o33Jnq4IHz

“我见证了 50 年的市场，从现在开始，有些人会表现出色，但太多的傻瓜会过度杠杆化，错过顶部，并在接下来的 BTC 50% 调整、山寨币 90% 调整、100% 调整中被吹垮。在模因中。” https://t.co/o33Jnq4IHz

While Brandt remains a Bitcoin holder as a store of value, he expresses concern about the speculative frenzy surrounding other cryptocurrencies. Meme coins and altcoins have attracted investors' interest, but Brandt stresses their lack of practical utility and extreme volatility. He warns that speculative trends often lead to unsustainable market bubbles that are prone to bursting, resulting in significant financial losses.

尽管布兰特仍然持有比特币作为价值储存手段，但他对围绕其他加密货币的投机狂潮表示担忧。 Meme 币和山寨币吸引了投资者的兴趣，但布兰特强调它们缺乏实用性且波动性极大。他警告说，投机趋势往往会导致不可持续的市场泡沫，这些泡沫很容易破裂，从而造成重大财务损失。

Risks Amplified by Debt-Driven Investments

债务驱动型投资放大了风险

Brandt warns that many investors are employing excessive debt to chase gains in speculative assets. He deems this approach reckless and perilous in the event of a market downturn.

布兰特警告说，许多投资者正在利用过多的债务来追逐投机性资产的收益。他认为，在市场低迷的情况下，这种做法是鲁莽且危险的。

He predicts that a market correction could cause Bitcoin to decline by 50%, altcoins by 90%, and meme coins to be completely wiped out due to their purely speculative nature.

他预测，市场调整可能会导致比特币下跌 50%，山寨币下跌 90%，而 Meme 币则因其纯粹的投机性质而被彻底消灭。

Despite his skepticism, Brandt does not dismiss the cryptocurrency space entirely. He discloses his holdings, which include Bitcoin and Solana (SOL), an Ethereum competitor often referred to as an 'ETH killer.' However, he remains conservative.

尽管持怀疑态度，布兰特并没有完全忽视加密货币领域。他披露了自己持有的资产，其中包括比特币和 Solana (SOL)，后者是以太坊的竞争对手，通常被称为“ETH 杀手”。然而，他仍然保持保守态度。

"Go ahead, call me a hater (I own Bitcoin & SOL)."

“来吧，称我为仇恨者（我拥有比特币和 SOL）。”

Brandt's primary investment focus has shifted to traditional markets for profit, humorously citing Kleenex stock as a potential target.

布兰特的主要投资重点已转向传统市场以获取利润，并幽默地将 Kleenex 股票视为潜在目标。

Meme Coins: A Booming but Risky Sector

Meme 币：一个蓬勃发展但风险很大的行业

A recent article by Cryptopolitan sheds light on the remarkable popularity of meme coins in 2024. The article reports that the total market capitalization of meme coins surged by 500% during the year, rising from approximately $20 billion in January to over $120 billion in December.

Cryptopolitan 最近发表的一篇文章揭示了 Meme 币在 2024 年的惊人受欢迎程度。文章报告称，Meme 币的总市值在这一年中飙升了 500%，从 1 月份的约 200 亿美元增至 12 月份的超过 1200 亿美元。

Dogecoin, initially a playful joke, has evolved into a serious asset class backed by institutions and gaining mainstream acceptance. Newcomers like Andy Eth and Chill Guy have experienced extraordinary growth, exceeding 47,000%. Early investors in these projects have witnessed impressive gains.

狗狗币最初是一个玩笑，现已发展成为一种由机构支持并获得主流认可的严肃资产类别。像 Andy Eth 和 Chill Guy 这样的新人经历了非凡的增长，超过了 47,000%。这些项目的早期投资者已经见证了令人印象深刻的收益。

"The memecoin phenomenon extends beyond mere speculation, representing a new form of social coordination and value creation. Their success challenges traditional notions of intrinsic value and can be as powerful as traditional financial metrics."

“模因币现象超越了单纯的投机，代表了一种新的社会协调和价值创造形式。它们的成功挑战了传统的内在价值观念，并且可以与传统的金融指标一样强大。”
