Only after depositing funds do you realize the truth: your principal has gone into the platform account, and the returns you receive are pitifully small. Even more heartbreaking, these funds are repackaged and loaned out to other users, with the platform earning huge profits from a 26% high-yield APY—your principal has become their ATM.

User confusion: Why put money into such a platform? The key issue surfaces—the inherent systemic risk of stablecoins themselves, and the platform's mode of siphoning funds through misappropriation and high-interest lending. This is not some secret trick, but a common practice across the entire crypto lending ecosystem. When you realize your assets have become collateral, trust has long been exhausted.

It's the same old trick, I've seen through it long ago. After all the effort, my money has become their ATM, it's hilarious. 26% APY sounds great, but the small interest I actually get is not worth mentioning at all. I really won't touch this kind of platform anymore, it's too heartbreaking.

Another trick to fleece the retail investors, the gameplay is all old and cliché. I'm really tired of this routine already. 26% APY? Haha, like a pie falling from the sky. The capital flow has been like this for so long, someone should have called a stop. Who doesn't know the risks of stablecoins? Still throwing money in, serves them right. The key is that retail investors are always the ones caught, the platform makes a killing. This ecosystem was already rotten to the core, no one can save it. Thinking back to those platforms that collapsed last year, the tricks are exactly the same. But on the other hand, how many people will still fall for it?

I just want to ask, does 26% APY really fool people? It should have been clear long ago that the higher the interest, the more people die. Using the principal as an ATM, I've seen this trick too many times, and every time someone falls into the trap.

It's the same old trick again. I told you, high APY returns are impossible to get for free. Principal becomes a cash machine. How is this business even done? We've all been fooled. Wake up, everyone. This is the real truth about crypto lending. To put it simply, it's a Ponzi scheme.

It's the same old trick, I've seen through it long ago. The veteran comrades are still giving away money, lol. 26% APY? How could it be free? There's no such good thing in the world. Your coins are just their ATM, wake up everyone. Stablecoin risks are so high, yet some still go all in. Truly bold. That's why I ran away long ago, so damn frustrating. Fund misappropriation is not even a secret, just outright theft.
