Many people find that earning small amounts of money from staking is tedious and not worth it, yet they are willing to wait for a 100x coin to change their destiny.

This is the combination of being poor and lazy, and it is also the result of short-sighted cognition + emotional speculation.

Why is this happening? There are shadows of psychology, behavioral economics, and even the gambler's fallacy behind it.

1. Mental Accounting and Instant Gratification

Mental Accounting: People subconsciously categorize their money, with some accounts feeling "not worth touching," for example, a few hundred yuan in petty cash is placed in the "unimportant account," while the fantasy of 100x coin is categorized under the "life-changing account."

Instant gratification preference: The story of 100x coin offers the fantasy of "one-step success," while mining requires fragmented actions and waiting for yields, which naturally feels cumbersome.

2. Gambler's mindset and dopamine drive

Most people enter the market with the subconscious desire to "turn things around" rather than accumulating steadily over time.

The stimulation of 100x coin is strong, with a large release of dopamine. Even if the probability is extremely low, the emotional pleasure far exceeds the slight satisfaction brought by picking up fluff.

This is why casinos can continue to operate - most people prefer to chase a big win rather than frequently collect small victories.

3. The essence of laziness is "the mismatch between expectation and reward"

People are not simply "lazy"; rather, the brain automatically conducts a cost-benefit analysis.

If you feel that the effort is not worth it, you will procrastinate or refuse.

In the highly asymmetric information crypto market, "100x coin" is mistakenly perceived as a high-value opportunity (low investment, huge returns), which in turn creates an incentive to gamble.

4. Root Cause: Lack of Cognitive Models

There is no established full process awareness of stable accumulation → compound growth → seizing high odds opportunities.

If you want to reach the finish line right from the start, it's like someone who hasn't trained their legs wanting to jump up to the fifth floor immediately—it's a wonder they don't fall.

The combination of poverty and laziness is actually a product of cognitive shortsightedness and emotional speculation.

5. Summary
Being poor is not scary; what is scary is not being willing to bow down for small money and not having the ability to seize big money.
True wealth is built up by countless "small gains" rather than being smashed out in one "all-in".
