There is a phenomenon in the crypto world worth noting: once a project enters the "broadly collecting user suggestions" stage, it often marks the eve of decline. Few projects can achieve a reversal by simply listening to opinions.

The trajectory of NFT and MEME coins is very telling. Before a real crash, community activity is usually at its most vibrant—everyone trying to come up with new tricks or build something. Unfortunately, this enthusiasm is often just a fleeting glow. After experiencing this several times, market participants gradually learn a different logic: rather than stubbornly clinging to a project that is calling for opinions, it's better to shift their focus to the next opportunity with more momentum. This is not irresponsibility, but market wisdom forged through continuous hurt.

nah this is just survivorship bias cosplaying as market wisdom tbh... the projects asking for feedback aren't dying, they're just not the ones making headlines anymore

That hits too close to home. As soon as I hear the project team start "broadly seeking opinions," I know it's not far from death.

So true, this is the "project's last dance before death"

Projects that seek opinions are basically just putting on their final fireworks... I've seen it too many times.

Projects that listen to feedback are basically doomed; this pattern is too accurate.

That really hits home. I've suffered losses from projects that only listened to opinions, and back then I naively thought an active community was a good thing.

It's so true. I've seen too many projects die just like this. The most lively times in the community are often the most dangerous. --- Dreaming of a turnaround after listening to opinions? Never seen it happen. --- The phrase "flickering back to life" is used perfectly; it's always the same routine. --- Instead of brainstorming with the project team, better to bet on someone with a clear opinion. --- That's how the tuition in the crypto world is paid. --- Once they start asking the community "What do you want," I know it's time to run. --- I've seen the entire NFT wave; the three most active months in the community were just countdowns. --- Market wisdom is learning to cut losses in time; it's not a bad thing. --- When a project can't find its direction, it starts asking for opinions. Wake up, everyone.
