Probably the 80-20 rule is working in this market as well. Meaning 80 percent of the traders are getting 20 percent of the market gains whereas 20 percent of the traders are getting 80 percent of the gains. You can't have a market where everyone is winning but in a bull market everyone can make money whereas in a bear market everyone can lose money.

The difference is in a bull market buyers/sellers could be divided into "losers who only made 5% and winners who made 50%" so everyone is making money but some traders are making more money.

During a bear market it is more like "losers who lose %50 whereas winners lose only %5", so everyone is losing but some lose less. Hence, you can't actually calculate who wins how much and how many people are making money because in reality sometimes nobody wins.

you lost money because you didn't make a trading decision on your own. instead you listened to others and bought shitcoins that they were telling you to buy. so to answer your question, most probably all of those people who told you to buy those shitcoins have made a profit because those people dumped on you after you bought and you continued to bag hold useless coins that were getting dumped. that is why they suggested them in first place, because THEY wanted to sell those coins so they fooled others into buying it from them.
