Some say middle-aged men have three treasures: fishing, Moutai, and Arc'teryx.
Fishing is an emotional safe haven; Moutai is a social hard currency; Arc'teryx is a symbol of elegance and status.
You might not have noticed that every circle has its own "three treasures". Used well, they can achieve twice the result with half the effort; used incorrectly, you'll pay tuition fees by taking detours.
It's the same in the crypto. With market trends changing rapidly and new projects emerging daily, newcomers fear buying the wrong coin or making incorrect investments.
There's a joke in the stock market that "as long as you don't buy anything, you'll outperform 90% of investors". In crypto, if you can understand the "crypto three treasures" - Bitcoin, stablecoins, and platform tokens - having them as your foundation, you might go further than most people.
One, "Crypto Three Treasures" are a Consensus Verified by Investors
When first entering crypto, many people's biggest mistake is following shills, not understanding project white papers, and thinking any project with "AI" or "Fi" in its name will double in value.
But after spending time here, you'll discover crypto isn't about who speaks the loudest, but who can sustain the longest.
Those coins that can truly survive bull and bear markets and won't go to zero are basically three types, which I call the "Crypto Three Treasures":
Bitcoin, the core of crypto, the market's bottom card
Stablecoins, the daily unavoidable fund transfer station
Platform tokens, the exchange's gold shovel and equity certificate
They aren't concepts invented and hyped by some KOL or VC, but a consensus repeatedly verified by countless investors - reasonably allocating them is far more important than chasing hot trends.
Just like traditional finance talks about "cash + fixed income + equity", crypto also has its own "basic portfolio". If Altcoins are casino chips, these three are the truly value-preserving assets in your pocket.
Two, Bitcoin: Slow Beats Fast, Crypto's Underlying Logic and Super Asset
Every moment in crypto is changing rapidly, but Bitcoin remains the unchanging "stabilizing needle".
Recently, Bitcoin hit a historical high. As of July 14th, Bitcoin's price broke through $120,000, with a market value exceeding $2.4 trillion, surpassing giants like Amazon, ranking fifth in global asset market value (BTC 123.FANS, July 15th, 25).
As more national funds, Wall Street institutions, and listed companies include BTC in long-term investment portfolios, it's no longer a speculative coin, but a value storage asset recognized by mainstream capital.
You might not hold it, but you must understand it - because it not only defines crypto's valuation logic but also practically leads market cycle fluctuations.
Newcomers always want to find the wind, but the most stable wind is the direction itself. BTC's long-term value is reflected not just in price increases, but in its ability to cross cycles, withstand emotions, and connect traditional finance with the crypto world.
Looking back at three years of data:
In the 2022 bear market, BTC dropped to $16,000
In 2023, it broke through $44,000
In 2024, it rose above $106,000
Now standing at $122,000, rising about 300% in three years
I've heard a saying, "When you first meet Bitcoin, that's when you can own the most Bitcoin". If you don't know which coin to start with, Bitcoin will always be the best starting point in crypto.
(Translation continues in the same manner for the rest of the text)BGB's destruction mechanism is considered the most clear and consistently executed, with its destruction volume mainly coming from on-chain usage fees and fixed destruction amounts. In the second quarter of 2025, 30,001,053.1 tokens were destroyed, with a total value of approximately $138 million, accounting for about 2.56% of the total supply. Unlike other platforms, Bitget has previously actively destroyed all 800 million BGB tokens held by the team, meaning Bitget has completely given up control, and combined with the platform's diverse financial, token launch, and earning methods, BGB HODLERs' rights continue to be amplified.
OKX executes a quarterly repurchase and destruction plan with varying destruction percentages each period. The 28th destruction in June was 42,437,632 tokens, valued at around $42 million. Currently, OKB's circulation rate is relatively lower compared to BNB and BGB.
Each platform token has its own logic and style. Overall, BGB demonstrates a relatively more transparent and credible value path through steady destruction, decentralization of control, and ecosystem utility.
Epilogue: Investing in the "Crypto Three Treasures", Seizing Opportunities
The stories in crypto never end, with new narratives, concepts, and get-rich-quick myths emerging periodically. However, you can't just "see the thief eating meat without seeing the thief getting beaten". True long-term winners are often not those who bet on hot spots, but those who configure steadily.
Bitcoin, stablecoins, and platform tokens collectively carry the most fundamental and stable crypto logic:
Bitcoin helps you maintain the bottom line, serving as the value cornerstone of the digital era;
Stablecoins help you control the rhythm, acting as a buffer zone during storms;
Platform tokens give you a sense of participation, serving as a channel for mutual success with major platforms.
These three asset types may not make you rich overnight, but they can prevent you from being easily eliminated. They are not the "most eye-catching", but often the "most useful".
Everyone's strategy, style, and goals differ. But in this highly volatile crypto market, if you can get these three right from the start, you're at least on a path with fewer pitfalls and more accumulation.
Investing is not just about staying stable, but also about seeing far; opportunities are not in the wind, but in the layout you can control.
With the Crypto Three Treasures in hand, you not only go further but win more steadily.
