I don't really know who these top 1% traders are but in my opinion, these should be a collection of the whales and the crypto investment funds (venture capital funds). I just assumed this up before these guys can make so much by just executing 2-3 trades monthly and if they do it right, they end up with good amounts of profits due to the fact that they use a truckload of funds to trade compared to the average trader who is just started out with $200 - $1000.

The reason why a lot of trades come short in the long run is because a lot of them think crypto is just a means to get rich quick and are impatient to see their plans and trades play out.
