Recently, an interesting yet dangerous phenomenon — the $LIGHT token experienced a "roller coaster" performance within 4 hours.



The price plummeted from a high of $2.91549 straight down to $0.61569, with a naked 46.9% decline displayed on the screen. This is not unusual, but the details are the killer.

Look at this data contrast to understand. On-chain liquidity is only about $358,000 — a pitifully small number. Yet, the fully diluted valuation (FDV) is still listed at $258 million. When these two figures are placed side by side, it’s like sticking a band-aid on a dam with tape.

What does this extreme liquidity gap mean? Simply put, a small amount of capital entering can cause huge waves. Price movements are entirely not determined by market supply and demand, but by who holds more chips. The risk of such assets isn’t about whether the coin itself is good or not, but about the lack of sufficient depth to support trades.

Investors looking at assets with high valuation and low liquidity must prioritize "liquidity risk." Volatility is inevitable, and losses can happen instantly.

Another low liquidity trap, with 358,000 in liquidity and a valuation of 258 million, purely a trap to cut leeks.

ngl, $LIGHT is basically a liquidity trap wrapped in duct tape... watching that 46.9% dump in 4hrs while FDV sits at $258M on $358k liquidity is genuinely painful. why would anyone touch this thing without a gas-optimized exit strategy already locked in? the real cost here isn't the token volatility, it's the failed tx fees waiting to happen when everyone tries to escape at once

It's another liquidity trap, truly incredible. As long as big players make a move, it's all over.

This is a typical rug pull warning. With such shallow liquidity, who would dare to take over?

Oh my god, 358,000 in liquidity compared to a valuation of 258 million, this is basically a brain tax.

Another liquidity trap like this, a pool of $358,000 supporting a $258 million valuation, really unbelievable.
