What do we mean when we say that a person should have self-awareness?

When we are developing products, whether it's payment/DeFi/AI, regardless of 2B2C, there is actually a user lifecycle value, lifetime value (LTV), which is the value generated by the user from the time they are introduced to the product until they leave the product, throughout this complete lifecycle.

In plain terms, how much value can you bring me? Is it income? Is it visibility? Is it image? Liquidity?

Talking about value, it's income minus costs, the benefits you can bring minus the costs I incurred to attract you.

No matter whether you are using your mouth, hands, or money to leverage, you cannot escape this algorithm. If you are unclear about what benefits your leveraging can bring to the project, then the likelihood of being counter-leveraged is high.

Product managers calculate user value, and users should also calculate their life value. Assuming the cycle value for cryptocurrency users is 100,000 u, then you can do whatever you want, as the bonus period is large; if it is only 1,000 u, then you must first ask yourself how to avoid falling into the pit.

If you are not the chosen one, then why aren't you the one losing money?

Avoiding falling into the pit is the beginning of self-awareness.
