I've always thought that hype coins are like a game of hot potato — the last people to hold the coin end up getting caught holding the bag.

Take $TRUMP as an example. Starting from $40, I bought low, experienced several sharp surges, and took profits. But recently, I checked the market and saw it had dropped to $5. Just thinking about it makes me guess how many people are still firmly locked at the top.

My current rule is very simple — I never touch projects that certain big V influencers are deeply involved in. Not that they have issues, but these types of coins are often just cyclical hype. Once the hype fades, the bag holders end up crying. Getting out early is the key.

From 40 to 5, this is what you call being educated... I also learned to be smart about big V coins, when the hype is up, I run.

Wow, TRUMP dropped from 40 to 5. How many people lost out... I've been saying for a long time that big V coins are all just harvesters.

I've long seen through it. These hype coins are just schemes to fleece retail investors. Influencers promote them and then run away, leaving us retail investors holding the bag.

Oh my god, Trump dropped from 40 to 5, which is why I avoid coins heavily promoted by big influencers.

Damn, TRUMP dropped from 40 to 5. How many people got stunned? I knew big V coins all follow this pattern—once the hype fades, there's really no hope.
