After several investment lessons, I finally see through some of the tricks.

From my observations, the operational logic of these projects is actually quite consistent:

A well-known figure hosts live streams or initiates buyback mechanisms? Essentially, it's to pump and dump their own tokens. When trading platforms list trading pairs or launch micro-strategy products? Ultimately, they're still looking for a sucker to take over the main coin. Those projects promising USD financing support or developing ecological applications? In reality, they're just paving the way for their main coin to be sold off.

Therefore, for every move these project teams make, we need to approach with a bit of "malicious preconception" — assuming that when they talk about ecological development, technological breakthroughs, or community governance, all of it is aimed at one goal: how to efficiently offload their tokens. Adopting this attitude helps us avoid being cut by wave after wave of positive news.

I've seen through it. This is the correct way to open it. Oh my God, isn't this exactly what I understood only after being cut three or four times? Talking about ecology, technology, but really just two words—selling out. This routine is really clever, each one more convincing than the last.

Damn, this is the truth I've recently realized, always the same tricks every time.

It's too late to wake up; I should have seen it this way a long time ago.

Haha, this is exactly what I've been saying. The套路玩法 (套路 gameplay) really only consists of these few sets.

Haha, really. Once you see through it, it's liberation. After playing this game for so many years, there really aren't any new tricks...

This tactic is indeed old and worn out; buybacks, ecosystems, and fundraising are all just smokescreens, ultimately leading to token dumping.

The truth is, when it comes to evaluating projects, it's all about two words—defense. No matter how loudly they boast, first ask yourself if you can walk away unscathed.

Having gone through several waves of pump and dump, I realize that all the fancy talk is just a cover; in the end, it all points to one action: dumping. --- Buybacks, ecosystems, financing... all sound impressive, but essentially it's just two words: cutting leeks. --- The most outrageous thing is when well-known figures promote products; they've already started reducing their positions at high levels, and you're still taking flying knives. --- Instead of believing their stories, think in the opposite way: can this step help them cash out? If yes, then that's the real purpose. --- Once this logic clicks, you'll see projects clearly. Don't listen to their hype about technological breakthroughs first—ask yourself if you'll be the next to take the fall.
