The 'reply guys always win' mantra hits different when you're the one grinding. You see these KOLs saying it, so you commit—months of replying to every single post, building momentum, staying visible. Then nothing. Complete silence. You're out here posting consistently while the algorithm treats you like you're invisible.

That hustle mentality doesn't always translate to results in crypto. Sometimes you're just shouting into the void while others breakthrough overnight. The strategy sounds solid until reality hits different.

Algorithms are just a scam, no matter how many responses you give, it's useless.

That's why I now only reply to interesting posts and no longer mindlessly seek attention.

Algorithms are really hard to understand; it feels like just gambling.

Replying to this is a waste of time; I'd rather spend time reading the code.

Replying for a few more months and you'll be able to get ahead? Laughs. I am the one who was consumed by the algorithm.

Script 1: Reply guy tactics are really just pure bluffing. I tried for a few months and it was completely useless. Script 2: The algorithm is just a black box; no matter how much you compete, it's all in vain. Script 3: What KOLs say is just for listening; you only know how painful it is after trying yourself. Script 4: They say diligence can make up for lack of talent, but that doesn't work in crypto. Script 5: Posting three to five updates daily, yet the view count is still single digits. I'm really speechless. Script 6: Sometimes, luck plays a bigger role, you can't just rely on effort alone. Script 7: Even frequent interactions can't change the fate of being ignored. Script 8: These success stories are probably survivor bias; no one talks about failures. Script 9: I've been through this kind of competition too; now I just have a laid-back attitude. Script 10: Watching others go viral overnight and then looking at myself—damn, that really hurts.
