Where is money ? We want it now look many sectors they are dry of money

[Hewlet]

So are the moneytaps turned off? Because i really feel like not many opportunites like before specially in investment fields had ways to make a lot money now just scam after scam and even sp500 ipo investments haven't made much returns.

People have become all too exposed to ways of making money to the point that we can't talk about free money any longer. Most sectors can't have a long term sustainability on free money or what looks like it and so, all the sectors are now operating in a manner that you've got to earn wealth and not just sit and expect a 1000× profit like it use to be in the past.

In this era, there's nothing easy about wealth acquisition be it that you are an investor or directly involved in one means through which money changes hand. You want wealth, you've got to work for it and actually earn it.

Is money tap turned off ?  Where is money, remember even crypto presales / ico and so when invested in some projects made 1000x for real.

But also felt like many things paid more what's wrong in the world? Now with all those crisis me and many not thinking about crisis or all those bad events wich we read 24/7 on the news, but we worry about money we got bills to pay and life to enjoy.

People that made huge money, most didn't take the money anywhere, they lost the money holding when they are supposed to sell and now the ones into the new ones are at lost. The people that experienced the previous bull run are not interested in buying again because they were failed from the previous run which is why the market is looking like there is no money in it or the money has flew some were but the money is still within the market, look at the total market cap.

Those times people made crazy profit then, the USDT tether didn't have what it's having today, the market cap was not half this big today but after many years of inflow of investors, they have increased in value. If the tether are sold to buy Bitcoin and all this altcoins, we are going to see the return of those money but like I said, the money is there due to the fact that most of the investors where failed. We need to win the interest of investors to restore the market again.

I don't think anyone who is hodling Bitcoin would lose if they have a long-term approach. Bitcoin is not like other shitcoins that usually turn out to be pump-and-dumps. We are in the bear season; it's normal to see prices drop. With the global economic problems caused by conflicts and tariffs, the demand for assets like Bitcoin declines. USDT is pegged to the US dollar. Stablecoins' value hardly declines since they are backed by fiat and not determined by the forces of supply and demand.

Because for the past 4-5 years or so, we had COVID and related printing of money; trillions were printed all around the world, and I do not joke about trillions- literally trillions of dollars all around the world were printed during the period between 2020-2024. So of course, when we finally got over the COVID period of printing in 2025 and also now in 2026 and are not printing money anymore, that means that we do not have "free money", of course. This has caused a lot less spending as well.

For years, people spent like there is no tomorrow because if you get free money and inflation, that means people will spend. They spend because inflation means everything will be more expensive tomorrow, and spending money right now means a lot better, so they wanted to spend now, and because of printed money, people basically got free money, and even if not, they managed to earn more, and that means they had money to spend for now as well instead of tomorrow. For the past 1.5 years, we have none of that at all.

Is money tap turned off ? 

No. There is literally more money in the world today than there has ever been in history. If you add up all the cash and bank deposits across the world's largest economies, it totals more than $103 trillion (the global M2 money supply indicator).

I understand the graphical representation but we need to remember money has a direct relation with population, that is, as the population increases so does the money circulate more hence the rapid increase in money, and I think that's the biggest problem of our generation and time, money tap has not been switched off but it has been diverted to another form, like a lot of people have said AI and technology investments is now the common, but the problem is with more people investing in same market, profit drops so it's hard to see that huge multiplier.
