No, its common for backlinks to become lost with time, it simply means that either google doesn't recognize the link any more, or that it was taken down by the site admin, or it's become a no-follow comment now
My competition is first on Google with only 3 backlinks!

OP, you don't deserve to rank just because of 12 backlinks on a 2 months old domain.
Also, using the link command on Google Search is no longer in vogue,I honestly don't remember the last time I heard that as an advice unless you are an old seo who is just returned to the industry.
Thirdly, links are no longer a foremost ranking factor. Js cluster score is the biggest, followed by handfeeding Google through schema markups, then real browser traffic, then links from news websites. That's it.

Nothing, you cannot get ranked with considering a single factor alone. You will need to try all possible things, any of them might help you rank better. If anyone know a list of particular activities that will 100% work at 100% times then he might have used that technique to earn millions.

I'm sure they hide backlinks from SEO tools.
This is common, even I do it myself.

I think it's about the keyword. i compared to my friend's website with many backlinks but not the keyword but my site focused on the keyword with low backlink. Finally my site on the top

On page can be the issue, if your site is good with all the on-page (when I say on-Page it includes everything keyword density, proper placement, anything related to content and page speed etc) factors, then it can be anything related to links or PBN (hidden as said above).

The answer is NO. "Lost" refers to backlinks that have either been removed or to websites that were linking to you but are no longer available.

It's tough to say exactly why your competitor is ranking so well with just a few backlinks. Could be they have a strong domain authority or a really well-optimized page. There's no magic bullet to getting to page one, but focusing on high-quality content, relevant keywords, and building natural backlinks will help. Be patient, it takes time. Don't go chasing cheap or shady backlink tactics, it'll hurt you in the long run.

Your competitor's higher ranking despite fewer backlinks could be due to factors like stronger on-page SEO, better user engagement, or more relevant content, so improving your own site's SEO comprehensively and focusing on quality content might help you achieve similar results.
